“ One of my fav places for quick breakfast and delicious cake. Staff is also super nice ”
“ We enjoyed eating our poached eggs on toast at this location. We sat outside and our waitress was very kind. They have gluten free bread available and a few gluten free pastries. ”
“ Absolutely amazing, the food was soooo good I didn't have time to take any pictures of it. The service was impeccable, the food fantastic, the music and atmosphere is amazing. Their attention to detail was both worthwhile and refreshing. I had amazingly well cooked eggs benedict with haggis, a personal favorite which was cooked to perfection. Then finished it off with some delicious red velvet cake and what I can only describe as the tastiest tiramisu canoli it's ever been my pleasure to devour. If I wasn't scared of the calories I'd have had more. I did steal a bite of the wife's Merlenka cake which was awesome too. I will be coming back next time I'm here. I'm always reluctant to offer a perfect review but. 5 out of 5. ”
“ I walked past the Ginger Coo, but something was drawing me in, and I'm so glad I did. I am Gluten-free (not by choice), so there aren't many places. However, the Ginger Coo offer the Gluten-free alternative and if you are celiac they cook the bits in different fryers or hot plates. Nadia was extremely helpful and knowledgeable on what i could have and they have a book if unsure about the ingredients. The atmosphere is relaxed with music playing in the background. For those that are not Gluten-free there is an array of different cakes from all over like Canoli in several flavours, Apple pie, Cheesecakes different flavours, Danishes, Traybakes, biscuits, cookies, Muffins, Marlenka, cakes and much more to say the least . They have not forgotten anyone there is Vegan Cheesecake and Lemon cake, for us Gluten-free folke thay have gf Carrot Cake and Marlenka (this is best served warm). People please visit this little bistro you will be surprised as we were. Just super i can't fault any of the food and drink and I can't thank Nadia and Talo enough for their help and support around my dietary requirements. ”
“ Amazing! Firstly, the service is brilliant (blonde girl, shame I didn't get her name to be able to name in this review), super polite, very softly spoken, and well presented. Food was great value for money, plenty of options, well presented, portion sizes are worth it, food cooked to perfection. Hats off to the chef, as it's been a while since I've had a decent cooked breakfast all cooked to perfection. The cafe decor is awesome, and it's also great to support a local and small business. Super worth the money, and you should check out this place. I'm definitely coming again. ”
“ They have many kinds of cakes and all of them are handmade! Everything was so delicious, really thanks to the people who made the cakes The service was very good and the place was clean. It was a cafe we found by chance, it definitely deserves better. 10/10! Gluten free and vegan cakes are also available ”
“ We went into a very nice cafe with a lovely young lady Nadia who was very happy and helpful. We had 2 Americanos in latte glasses which were made excellent. We also had 2 Haggis rolls which were so nice. We will definitely be back next time we visit Edinburgh. Toilets were very clean also. 10/10 for this family business ”
“ Walked past, and our eye was caught by the cake displays, which we actually didn't end up tasting. We had a spot of lunch choosing the wraps with chips and some juice. I had the grilled chicken, chorizo, pesto, and mozzarella- which was delicious with a large amount of filling. It is a lovely little place to sit and chill and get away from the hussle and bussel of city centre life. The waitress was lovely, friendly, and super attentive. The menu had a really good variety of food and drinks at exceptional pricing. I was full after my wrap, so I will have to return on another occasion for a warm drink and something from the cake selection. ”
