Very quaint little cafe (maybe 8 tables?) but wonderful food and coffee! Wish I could have eaten there more than once!

Passando ci siamo fermati per bere un caffè e mangiare qualcosa, abbiamo preso un cappuccino e la cameriera ci ha fatto dei disegni super carini inerenti alla città, abbiamo preso due brownie molto buoni e una torta super consigliata!!

We stumbled upon this cafe in Edinburgh and were a bit wary at first as it was very quiet inside. We got the falafel, hummus and roasted veg wrap and full breakfast. The wrap exceeded all expectations and the hummus kept it juicy and the falafel was very flavourful. Highly recommend for veggies! The full breakfast was good and as expected. Also had the latte - really smooth coffee made with good beans. Also had tropical delight smoothie- this was very refreshing and you can tell they used fresh fruit. Highly recommend this cafe!
