Reviews

Impeccable coffee shop. For all my fellow spoiled americans, this place also has incredible drip coffee. Extremely friendly baristas too playing great music, and a perfect place to work on your laptop for a bit or read a book. I can’t imagine a better coffee spot in Edinburgh. Will be returning very soon.
