Coffee shop in Edinburgh

“I had a lovely experience at Urban Jungle, with delicious food and a lovely atmosphere. I was served by the wonderful Willow who was very attentive and kind. I would really recommend for a nice brunch spot.”

“Truly a hidden gem! Kind staff and superior-quality food at very reasonable prices. I've had an egg roll twice and it was to die for! I think they use prime quality ingredients, the bread roll itself was so soft and tasty. Unfortunately not dog friendly (I think because they are within a larger premise), but they do takeaway from the back (it's not signposted, just walk to the back of the building and you'll find a desk with a bell to ring staff and a menu, there is also a nice garden with some benches). So really an amazing spot to stop by after a long walk on the beach!”

“Absolutely loved the mocha here! The best one I’ve ever had. Highly recommend it for breakfast/brunch.”

“The owner runs the whole show—and she does so exceptionally well. The food is excellent, the prices are very reasonable, and the service is truly five-star. I’d highly recommend this spot to anyone visiting Edinburgh.”

“After having stayed in Whitworth Locke before in Manchester and having such a good experience, we decided to book this hotel in Edinburgh for my birthday trip! And we’re so glad we did! The rooms are beautiful as they always are in Locke hotels, the cafe downstairs was great. And staff were lovely and friendly! The lady that checked us in was particularly incredible! After having a sleepless night we arrived to the hotel a lot earlier than check in time and we were dreading having to stay out all day running on empty. We asked if there was any chance early check in was available and she allowed us to check in a lot earlier as our room was ready! We were really grateful for this and really appreciate hotels that offer little extras for guests! Thank you :)”

“Stupendous. I have not been to a better cafe, have not had a better breakfast in Scotland than here. Coffee was on spot: Not scolding hot, perfect blend, amazing latte art. Got a second coffee, they made a freaking swan!!! I didn’t make a picture cause my sister sipped it before I made a picture (thanks for that haha), but guys, honestly, what a place! My friends had some other items, and portions are incredibly reasonable. Will be back for sure!”

“Amazing homemade carrot cake, I’ll be back for that alone. Lovely service and very down to earth just go”

“Having lived near the cafe, it is always my go to place for coffees and breakfasts. The place is spacious and comfortable, and the service always maintains a decent pace. I have tried their whole menu at this point and don't have much to complain about. The Salmon Breakfast and the Sausages with Mash are two of my favourite orders. If you have a sweet tooth, try one of their Marlenkas, or if visiting on a hot day, the milkshakes are worth a try. The staff is the friendliest I have seen, and makes for an overall pleasant experience. A shout out to Ola, Pat and Leigh for being great hosts.”

“Whilst on a quick trip to Edinburgh we found this delightful little spot for breakfast within a short walk from where we were staying. Pleasantly affordable. The food, excellent. The owner and staff pleasant and engaging! Highly recommend.”

“Delicious linguine with pistachio pesto pancetta and proper cappuccino. Can taste the quality incidents and pasta was al dante. Friendly people. Quick service. Would be back again soon.”

“In for takeaway, had a chicken cesaer wrap, Food amazing in this wee place Deffo be back next time I'm in the area. Might look expensive for some folk but ye only get what ye pay for. And I certainly did! Compliments”

“Small but mighty menu. Ordered the chicken sandwich and the noodles (pork with chili sauce). The sandwich came with a kimchi slaw, and the noodles had a fresh and savory sauce...I think both dishes should be enjoyed together. The space is also small. Went as soon as it opened, and service was rapid. Saw that they seat you family style with strangers if you are a smaller group of one or two, but I don't believe they take reservations.”

“Probably the best omelette I’ve ever had! This tiny coffee shop was packed when we arrived, so we knew it would be good. The coffee and breakfast were delicious. Next time I would definitely get more of the sourdough and skip the croissant bun.”

“If there had been an option for 7 stars I would have used it! Definitely the best cup of specialty and artisan coffee in the whole Edinburgh. They use the best ingredients from quality coffee beans to the best type of Oat Milk available in the region! A hotspot for coffee to be soon! Do not miss it when you are around the area”

“Super lovely cafe, would definitely recommend you going! It’s relatively cheap and the food is absolutely delicious. The staff there are so lovely and attentive. We both got the Turkish breakfast. The bread was so soft and warm. Amazing tasting food and the hot drinks were delectable. Honestly among the best I’ve had in Edinburgh”

“The type of charming local cafe that is sadly all too rare these days, serving a wonderful mix of traditional Scottish dishes and cafe fair with some authentic turkish options. The food is freshly and lovingly prepared to order delivered quickly and with relish. The prices are surprisingly reasonable given the quality. Staff very warm and welcoming and happy to cater to preferences. Ample seating inside and some charming outside tables give it s real Mediterranean feel in the Costa del nitten. Owner passionate about food and pleasing his customers. Only single downside is having to wait awhile for a table as it is so loved by the local community that it's always busy, which is the biggest green flag for a cafe one can give. Highly recommend.”

“Called in on speck for a breakfast and were met by two lovely hosts. Nothing was too much for them and we had a cracking breakfast - egg beans bacon black pudding haggis fried tomatoes and heaps of toast. Definitely recommend”

“Had lunch today, delicious food and lovely choice of cakes. Very friendly staff. This was our first visit but won't our last”

“THEIR MAC AND CHEESE WRAP IS HEAVENLY OH MY GOD i miss it so much i love it i cant wait to go to edinburgh just to eat this again. its so good it blows my mind the flavours were just amazing. i recommend this 100% and the coffee was delicious as well!”

“Absolute find. Came here for breakfast as a pop in and loved it so much came back every other day. Breakfasts were stunning, ingredients all perfectly cooked. Coffee great. And on top of that you are welcomed by the owner who is just so friendly and welcoming. Would I recommend, 100%. Best way ever to start your day”

“A lovely hidden gem and delightful discovery! Great coffee and a delicious almond croissant that hit the spot.”

“Lovely, cosy wee cafe that we travelled to from Glasgow. Food was delicious and great value. We were warmly welcomed while we waited for my son to sit his driving test. He unfortunately failed, but we will most likely revisit this lovely wee place next time we are in Edinburgh.”

“Best breakfast rolls around. So consistently tasty and great value. Such tasty veggie options too.”

“Fantastic place , fantastic staff very friendly very accommodating and fantastic prices, and I had the lentil soup which is vegan by the way , it was the best lentil soup I’ve ever had , I will be back for sure”

“My daughter had her 5th birthday there and it was absolutely amazing. Helpful and nice stuff, good contact with the owners. Reasonable price. Would recommend”

“Extremely friendly small cafe with great coffee and cakes. Well behaved dogs looked after very well too. We will return before long to sample the awesome looking oven fresh scones and have brunch or lunch.”

“Brilliant garage. They don’t change things for the sake of it and they’re honest with their customers.”

“Lovely wee cafe, sometimes a queue to get a seat. I love the french toast with maple syrup and bacon, amazing! And all the staff are lovely and helpful too, great atmosphere x”

“Great little cafe, I had bacon roll with mustard,lovely back bacon cooked fresh, roll soft. Cappachino great, flavour not bitter and strong. owner lovely makes a welcome to all especially the elderly locals.Love how she provides daily morning paper.”
