Great little place just off the royal mile to grab some good food. I had the Scotch Pie with Haggis and Beans. It was delicious. The staff was friendly and quick. Food cooked fresh as it's ordered. Prices are decent for the location. Definitely step away from the crowded street and try this place.

We arrived in Edinburgh early Monday morning and not many breakfast places were open, but we found this one a little off the Royal Mile and looked to have some breakfast items we were interested in. The café is tucked in a lower level of a building and has a cute entrance, but the inside is not that impressive. We ordered the Scottish breakfast, since we were excited to try some Scottish food. The café wasn't busy so we received our food pretty quickly, but I found it a little cold for how long it took.Overall, it wasn't a bad place for a quick breakfast and the prices weren't too bad and all the staff was nice.

Few days ago, I visited this cafe. In many years, although I recognized this, I didn’t have a chance to visit there. All staffs were very friendly. Cafe and tea and scone were good. I love this kinds of wee cafe. Looking forward to visiting again. Thank you!

A small cafe underground (no network). We ordered two hot chocolates and a panini. We only got the hot chocolates and once we finished and went to pay they realised they have forgotten the Panini. Strong noose from the refrigerator in the room.

Very little place, kind of hard to find. The service was very quick. We had our food about five minutes after we ordered. I’m not an expert in Scottish food, but both my wife and I thought it was great. We ordered the Scottish breakfast and the English breakfast.

Super cute little cafe tucked away from the road near the castle. A great spot to get something quick, easy and cheap. I got the scones and I could have eaten four of them - they were so good! The guy and lady running the kitchen are very friendly and the food is served fresh, hot and fast.
