Queue or book for a table at The Edinburgh Larder, a Blackfriars Street favourite for seasonal Scottish produce. Order the Eggs Royale or brisket benedict and enjoy a proper cup of artisan coffee alongside.
Full description
The Edinburgh Larder on Blackfriars Street is a relaxed café built around local, seasonal produce for breakfast and lunch, with artisan coffee. Reviewers praise the Eggs Royale, the mushrooms on toast and a brisket benedict, and describe it as an authentic Scottish breakfast.
It is busy and there is a queue at peak times, though it moves fairly quickly, and seating is split across two buildings. Reservations are recommended, though walk-ins are accepted.
It closes mid-afternoon, so plan for breakfast or an early lunch.

We ended up here after some online recommendations. The food was excellent! I got the Eggs Royale and my husband the mushrooms on toast. Both were amazing. While they do allow for walk-ins, the line was quite long. Thankfully we made reservations, so I do recommend doing so. Also, try to make them as far in…
