   Perfect in every way. Sip your flawlessly -steamed latte while listening to a brilliant music mix on tap in this tucked away cafe in the heart of Old Town. Food is fabulous as well. Do not miss.

   Lovely coffee in the heart of old town. Amazing quality coffee, cozy atmosphere and nice concept with cassettes and retro players as part of the interior.

   I came across Hideout Cafe by chance. I was trying to get away from the crowds at Lawnmarket and took a shortcut to where it took me. I saw this corner coffee place and just by glancing around, I noticed that almost everyone that was inside was having a nice looking layered cake. I decided to try it. This layered cake is the honey cake. It has a very nice texture and it tastes great! I'm very happy I decided to take a shortcut. I found myself at the right place at the right time. I really enjoyed the design of Hideout Cafe. It is all about music. Lots of cassettes are nicely placed around the store along with some colorful radios and some plants.

   It’s not a normal cafe, we always like to have a cup of coffee every time when we are in Edinburgh, a lot of cassettes in the cafe, I think they still work and you can still purchase them. Only 5 minutes away from Edinburgh castle. Be honest I don’t like the tips request shown on the card machine when you try to pay with your card or mobile phone. It upsets me because of it.

   Great spot to grab a coffee & bite to eat. My cortado coffee was great and so was my Parma ham sandwich - they had a good variety pastries and sandwiches to choose from. The coffee is on the strong side which I like. It’s not big inside, but they do have a few tables to sit at - max two or three people at a table. This spot has has. a great vibe & friendly service.

   A really nice spot to find a coffee or just enjoy Edinburgh. The place is quite hidden as the name but close to Edinburgh Castle. + A cool interior and A nostalgic design due to the cassette tape they have.

   A great place to stop for coffee and a snack. I prefers a sandwich and a slice of pistachio cake, both of which were delicious washed down with a perfectly balanced long black. Old Town can be a little bit on the thin side for good quality, independent food and drink. The proximity to so many popular tourist destinations and the high rents make it tricky. But this place is bucking the trend and should come highly recommended.

   Lovely place, lovely people, really good coffee and amazingly delicious brownies!! Small corner cafe close to Edinburgh castle. We went there twice in two days on our Edinburgh visit. They also take their love for music very seriously! The decor using the old rock tapes is the testimony to that and the songs are played also on the old style tape recorders :)
