Had an americano here between meetings. Coffee was good, staff were polite. The pastries looked decent but I&#39;d already eaten. Convenient spot for a quick caffeine hit.

Popped in for a coffee and ended up staying for ages. The music was spot on, just the right vibe for a lazy afternoon. Staff were really chill. Pastries looked good, might try one next time.

Good quality food. Excellent friendly service. Very approachable and welcoming. Menu has a good and varied chose. Dietary requirements catered for.

The cheese toastie is the star here. Simple, sure, but the bread was perfectly crisp and the cheese just the right kind of melty. Honestly, it&#39;s ruined other toasties for me. A solid choice for a quick lunch.

The okonomiyaki was the reason I came. The batter was light, the cabbage still had a bit of crunch, and the bonito flakes danced on top. A proper savoury pancake. The only thing is, it took a while to arrive.

The self-service kiosks are a nice touch, really quick and easy. My burger was piping hot when it arrived, which is always a plus. Just a bit of a sterile vibe in there, though.

The carrot cake here is a proper treat. Really liked the orange zest in the cream cheese, and the raisins give a nice little tang. It&#39;s a big slice, too.

Quick lunch spot. Beef and potato stew was hearty, mapo tofu had a good kick. Staff were friendly and efficient, got my order out fast. Just what you need for a midday bite.

Open on Christmas, lifesaver for a visitor. Quick service, got a hot meal fast. Staff were really nice, made it feel less lonely. Food was tasty, just what I needed.

Really liked the vibe here, perfect for catching up with a friend. They sell local art which is a nice touch. My matcha was spot on and the food was tasty. Just a bit on the pricey side, but the place is clean and cosy.

Been a regular since day one. The tempura and tendon are still top-notch in Edinburgh. Just tried the new sukiyaki &ndash; solid addition. Really appreciate how solo-friendly it is.

The festive set menu was really nice, all the courses were tasty. I appreciated the included cocktail and the unlimited soft drinks. It felt like a good deal for what you get. The service was friendly and the whole evening was very relaxed.

Watching them make the hot chocolate right there at the counter was the best part. It looked exactly like the pictures online. So cosy.

The food is always spot on, but it gets so busy! We popped in on a Friday night and ended up waiting ages for a table. The staff were lovely about it, but it&#39;s definitely one to book ahead if you&#39;re meeting friends.

Stopped in after climbing Arthur&#39;s Seat. Coffee was good, exactly what I needed. Service was quick, which I appreciated. A solid, convenient spot for a post-hike pick-me-up.

The tonkotsu broth was rich and had real depth of flavour. The chashu pork was so tender it just fell apart. Good, hearty portions and the noodles tasted properly fresh. A solid bowl.

The porridge with caramelised banana and Nutella was my pick for breakfast. Really hearty and kept me going all morning. Good portion for the price.

Love the vibe here, modern and clean. Their breakfast burrito is my go-to now, the salsa is just right. Good to see they support local causes. Coffee&#39;s always solid.

I was pleased to see they had a vegan sausage roll on the menu. It was pretty good, quite tasty actually. A decent option if you&#39;re looking for something plant-based. The pastry was nice and flaky.

Roasted their beans right there in the shop, so you know it&#39;s fresh. Had a cappuccino with their Ugandan Arabica &ndash; got a nice earthy flavour to it. Quick stop for a proper coffee fix.

Been coming here for years. The spicy Fuego margarita is still my go-to. It&#39;s got a good kick but isn&#39;t overpowering, and they&#39;ve kept the recipe consistent. That&#39;s what keeps me coming back.

The kimbap is the real deal, tastes just like I remember from Seoul. They do sell out by lunchtime though, so get there early.

Clark and Henry were so good! They knew all about where the ingredients came from, and you could tell they really cared. It made the whole dinner feel more special, like a proper catch-up with friends.

Great spot on George Square for a quick bite during the Festival. The steak pie was hearty and savory. Pairing it with a decent glass of red from their short list really hit the spot. Service was a bit slow, but the location can&#39;t be beat when you&#39;re out and about.
