Second, their team (whose names now I have forgotten which is a shame) are extremely helpful and patient. They know their stuff. I was seated quickly and was given the menu and my eyes...my eyes were bigger than my stomach which is the other shame. My favorite was the Millionaire Shortbread Crepe. I mean come on. That thing was decadent, rich and just enough. That was probably the only dessert I was able to complete. Next, was similar to what we Americans call a pazookie. Nutella everywhere. I should've known that this would be the richest, creamiest and thickest of all. I probably should've ordered water but instead I craved a hot chocolate. I also ordered a hot chocolate which was dark chocolate I believe. Perfect for the cold weather. Unfortunately was stuffed by the time this came out. 10/10 recommend. Service is spectacular, team is friendly and genuinely enjoys being there and desserts, I mean cmon you can tell by the photos. Worth the hype. Worth the money and overall just a good place to hangout after exploring the city.

When paired with the waffle, this is a delightful sweet and savory treat. (Fruit Bowl: A+) - Worthwhile fruit bowl with such a diverse selection of fruit from berries to citrus to pomes.

Clearly, they don't get many vegan visitors. I was so excited to see numerous dishes marked as…read morehaving vegan options upon request, but I have to say that the shakshuka is not the move. To "veganize" it, they simply remove the eggs, cheese, and yogurt, leaving behind a bowl of tomato sauce with toast, for exactly the same price. The side of mushrooms I got saved the day, which were genuinely delicious; lightly charred and topped with chives, there was a variety of portobello, shiitake, oyster, and more. The cafe is cute, definitely dressed for Instagram, and there are colorful and/or glittery drinks to complete the picture. Just not exactly as vegan-friendly as advertised.

Amazing brunch spot in Edinburgh…read more The reviews to this little spot do not lie. The brunch food was incredibly high quality and had the right amount of Scottish twang. I had a mocha to go along with my meal which was smooth and sweet. For the main, I "built my own bear". I went with 2 eggs poached with granary toast, bacon, pork sausage, black pudding, and a hash brown. It was a large amount of food for good value. During my short stay here I visited twice. It was just that good.

The larger restaurant is amazing for all the other meals but the little larder is an amazing breakfast spot. The service is excellent and they treat you like family.

Go, order the traditional breakfast and coffee or tea, sit back and enjoy.

The server is very friendly and I ordered full Scottish breakfast to try out everything and chai latte. It came fairly fast and it was a very full dish. I tried all the food and they are all yummy. The blood pudding is not quite my favorite. And the bean with the red sauce is a little too spicy for me. But overall it is very good. Chai latte is super yummy and not overly sweet!

The location, tucked away on a side street away from the hustle and bustle of Prince's Street, means that you won't be fighting with people for a table, as although it can get busy around lunch, you likely wouldn't find it unless you knew what you were looking for. The staff is extremely helpful and nice and helped make the whole experiance very pleasant. I will note that the prices are a bit high, although that's expected when all vegan ingredients are used. Their signature brunch item, pink-hued waffles, make for a lightly crispy meal with a delicate spongy interior, and comes with a generous helping of fruit on the side. The espresso is good, with a impressive custom coffee machine and a wide selection of milk alternatives - although the chai latte was a bit weak in spice and flavor and could've been more thoroughly mixed. Another interesting item they do is an all-vegan version of the Scottish Breakfast. As that is traditionally an almost all meat meal, this a quite impressive feat, although I've never been a huge fan of imitation meats. If you're looking for a healthful brunch/lunch meal, especially if you are vegan or vegetarian, I recommend Naked Bakery! They also produce a selection of cakes and pastries which customers were coming in for throughout our meal.

I'd actually walked past this place numerous times in the past few weeks and simply hadn't spotted it - nothing eye catching about it and the interior felt more tacky then vintage. Now I'm fussy about ice-cream (living in Italy for 2years has turned my into a bit of an ice-cream snob) so I wouldn't call this good ice-cream at all. However once blended into a shake with your favourite chocolatey treat - it did taste pretty good! If you're feeling like having a bit of guilty chocolate / sweet junk food - then this is definitely the place to go!
