This almost didn’t make it to the guide it’s so good, as sharing it with more people would only make it more impossible to get a seat on the weekends. Since 2007 they’ve been serving the best breakfast and brunch food on Leith Walk.

Come for the eggs benedict once, and you’ll know why. Return for the croque madame and congratulations, you’re now a regular. Word of Mouth bake all their own cakes and pastries too - and if that’s not enough they roast eight blends of their own coffee.

Service is always with a genuine smile, be sure to ask Roshi for a chai latte. Just keep it between us, K?
