This little cafe is a hidden gem, primarily serving takeaway, but they do have two benches for outdoor seating. It is right opp Moxy Hotel. I enjoyed my morning flat white. It’s smooth with a balanced bean flavour that’s not overly acidic. And I love it serves hot. Tried the vegan nutty granola bar as well, it was average. The two friendly ladies behind the counter made my experience better. This cafe is a great way to start your Scottish morning.

Genuinely believe this is the best coffee shop in Edinburgh, bar none. Service always top drawer and the coffee is superb.
