In Edinburgh, it is really rare to experience a community cafe where the staff and the regular folk are so warm and welcoming, I have not felt as welcomed and safe as I do within this cafe. It's not explicitly a queer cafe but then again it's not explicitly not. Its truly a hidden gem of a independent cafe with good vegan options. The decor is rustic and charming. When I am at my lowest I end up here and leave feeling a little more able to live. I love them all so much I always round up to the nearest 10pThe coffee is great and the baguette is filling. I really appreciate all the hard work the staff put in to the cafe. It's really helpful and they have an open mic night which is great. I really like the chance to explore art with them every Wednesday.Thank you August 21

Had coffee and a light lunch with my family. Great feedback on the hot chocolate and tea. Soup of the day was lintel and it was really good. Service was great!There were lots of locals which is always a good sign.

I love this cafe so much. My friends and I have been going here for maybe a year now, but I’ve never thought of giving a review until this moment.The bagels are tasty, the cakes are nice, and the Victoria Sponge is probably my favourite in all of Edinburgh. The coffee is consistently good too.The decor is very eclectic, friendly, and warm. There’s a certain alternative vibe to it without trying too hard to achieve that.The owner and the staff are super friendly and welcoming.

Beautifully decorated, cosy cafe, with great food options. Very popular for take-away hot drinks. Plenty of space and light; seems to be popular for studying too.

It was a lovely day outside and I chose August 21 for my study session today. There is wifi and plenty of plugs. Such a cozy atmosphere with the nicest staff. Great selection of sandwiches, cakes, scones and coffee. There are more spaces at the back and some books, board games and cards for people to enjoy. Very dog friendly as well with available dog treats. There are also some beautiful local art on the walls that I didn't put here because you should definitely see for yourselves. I recommend a visit whether you just need some coffee to take away, want to enjoy your book in peace or need a study space that will keep you focused!

Cosy little coffee joint in the south side. Haven't had their food, but their coffee is worth stopping in for. Nice friendly service to greet you as well. A tranquil place to relax and enjoy your coffee.

Very nice and super cosy coffee place, sort of out the way but can get busy at times. However, atmosphere and decor is great and coffee is amazing, would reccomend wholeheartedly.

A nice cafe with retro decor. We tried the stuffed bagels, one vegan with falafel & aubergine and the other with ham & blue cheese, and both were delicious. Coffee was fine. A great place for lunch or a break from work.

Very special place with delicious food and friendly atmosphere. Every Wednesday from 7pm till 9pm there's an open mic night. You can order cakes and coffee and listen to some amazing music and poetry by local artists and it's my favourite place.Come and check it out.
