Internet cafe in Edinburgh

“Best cafe in Edinburgh with lovely, brilliant staff and amazing breakfasts. We ate here every day of our trip. P.S thank you for making my birthday weekend so special and thanks for the cake - yum !! We will be back.”

“La Viola, Edinburgh – A Sweet Slice of Heaven Tucked away in the heart of Edinburgh, La Viola is a dreamy little haven for dessert lovers. I tried the pistachio cheesecake and the Nutella cheesecake — both were pure indulgence. The pistachio was silky, subtly nutty, and beautifully balanced, while the Nutella was rich, decadent, and melt-in-your-mouth divine. Each bite felt like a quiet celebration. A perfect spot for a sweet pause in the city.”

“coffee was good, i think it’s one of the best in the city, its hidden as it named the staff were very welcoming and smiling wifi was provided on the table”

“Absolutely delicious food and excellent service. Ingredients were fresh and of great quality. Amazing value for money, really filling and nutritious. Was nice to get a takeaway wrap to eat in the nearby park as there wasn't much space inside.”

“Rankin’s Cafe is an absolute delight. The service is prompt and friendly, the setting is charming with the Forth bridge visible over the top of the pretty village houses. Both times we visited our daughter had the kids breakfast which she loved. I was very happy to find a full vegetarian breakfast on the menu (including delicious vegetarian haggis). The food, the atmosphere, the service is all great. Highly recommend!”

“While in leith you have too definitely need to go into this cafe. The cakes are delicious and loads to choose off. We only had an orange cake and a coffee and tea this time but would definitely be back to try other food on offer. You can also bring your dog with you as long it’s well behaved . Took a takeaway cake home and it was delicious too.”

“This is a delightful wee cafe, very community centred and part of the beautiful Liberton Kirk which sits across the road ( an aside, the church is worth a visit at any time but is a visual delight in autumn as the leaves of the creeper covering the building turn a fiery red. Gorgeous.) The cafe is manned by cheerful and helpful volunteers and the fresh scones, cakes and biscuits, baked on site, are great. Definitely worth a try if you are passing.”

“During our honeymoon trip to Edinburgh, this turned out to be the coziest and most delicious breakfast spot we visited. The owners are wonderfully friendly and prepare everything with genuine care. As a surprise, they even had a honeymoon gift waiting for us, which made our visit extra special. I can recommend this place to anyone, and I truly hope we’ll be able to return on our next visit to Edinburgh!”

“I came to The Village Cafe after a bad experience at a different nearby cafe where after 45 minutes I never received my food. Needless to say, when I arrived at The Village Cafe I was absolutely starving. It was packed but there were 2 tables outside. Despite it being windy and 9 degrees, it was at least sunny so I asked if I could sit outside. The server who greeted me was outgoing and friendly and asked if I had been served. I told her no and asked to sit outside. She replied something to the effect that it was a bit cold outside and she was sure they could get me a table inside. Within minutes a table was free and I quickly ordered the cheeseburger. My food came out maybe 10 minutes later. It was delicious. Being American, I’m a bit of a burger snob. The burger was juicy, the chips were crispy, the salad was fresh. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. Really lovely neighbourhood cafe. Will be back and hopefully have room to try some of their cakes. :)”

“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!”

“Awesome service, Turkish coffee and the salad, near the peaceful and beautiful neighborhood.”

“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.”

“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.”

“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”

“Amazing staff. Absolutely loved the food. Loved the vibe. My first time trying Mese and it's delicious. I can't wait to return!”

“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.”

“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”

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

“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”

“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.”

“Delicious, huge toasties and hot chocolate. Very reasonable price and family friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend.”

“Now offering a pop up restaurant on a Friday and Saturday evening. The food was fantastic modern Italian cooked with lots of love and served by the good folk that help create it. You can bring your own wine and the prices are such good value. What can I say ciao Elliott!”

“After a long walk from Edinburgh to Balerno via Union Canal and Water of Leith - this friendly wee cafe was a welcome stop!! Nice coffee and really tasty cheese scones - served by smiley volunteers and at a reasonable price. Cake selection looked fab - hope to visit again soon to try them out!”

“If you are looking for the closest thing to tasting fresh pasta while sitting in a restaurant in Venice- this is it! We have tried a number of Italian joints across the globe and this is as close to sitting in Italy as you can get. From the caprese and vegetable soup (soup of the day) as a starter, to the carbonara or ragu for mains, down to the pistachio cakes and tiramisu- you can do no wrong for anything on the menu. It’s a family owned restaurant and you can tell the pride they take with every meal. Make a reservation to avoid being turned away (we got lucky when a last minute table opened up- even waiting 15min outside). It’s worth the entire wait. You won’t regret it.”

“Student discount applies for food only. Love their soup & panini - cappuccino and chai latte are not bad!”

“Attended with a wheelchair user, immediately a member of staff was present to help us get in and get to a table. The entrance is step-free. The staff were fantastic and really friendly throughout our visit. Great selection of food, everything made fresh so asking for something without one of the ingredients was not a problem at all, and the choice of fresh cakes was INCREDIBLE. The marlenka was beautiful! Would highly recommend.”

“Beautiful sitting. Delicious scones. Exceptional service. I went to enjoy tea and a scone. I asked for extra warm tea, which they kindly provided. They kindly replaced my half eaten scone after it fell, without asking or charge. I hope to visit again and fully recommend a visit to whoever is in the city.”

“Visited Red Kite Café this morning for breakfast with a friend and had such a lovely experience. I ordered the Red Kite Breakfast and it was absolutely delicious. I asked for no mushrooms and the waitress kindly offered extra bacon instead — a really thoughtful touch, especially since most places simply remove the item without replacing it. The staff were very attentive and the café itself was clean, tidy and had a great ambiance. I’d definitely recommend it and would happily return!”
