Mimi's Bakehouse - City Art Centre

4.4 ·

Begin your Edinburgh day at Mimi's Bakehouse, steps from Waverley Station's Market Street exit. Order a scone with clotted cream and jam, or the savoury beforenoon tea, and browse the cake counter over a relaxed coffee.

Full description

Mimi's Bakehouse sits on Market Street inside the City Art Centre building, directly across from the station's Market Street exit, which makes it an easy first or last stop in the city. Reviewers single out the scones with clotted cream and jam, and a savoury 'beforenoon tea' offered as an alternative to classic afternoon tea.

A wide spread of cakes and other sweets fills the counter. Prices are budget-friendly, no reservation is needed, and a visit of around 45 minutes suits solo travellers, couples and older visitors.
