"After a morning spent meandering around the vintage shops of Grassmarket, pop into this charming café for a juice, a veggie snack and a dose of green goodness. Find your perch by a pastel-hued table amid jungle-esque decor and sip on a smoothie (the Ass-Aye-Eee with berries, açai, apple and coconut milk is delightfully sweet) and nibble on a slice of toasted sourdough or a warm bowl of veggie curry."

"Hula do an aaaamazing range of juices which as a juice bar you would probably expect. Although not totally vegan, still worth a shoutout on this list though as they did have some delicious and healthy vegan food on offer!. Think smoothie bowls, avocado and toast and sandwiches."

"For one of the best brunches in Edinburgh, you should definitely visit Loudons at the weekend, when their breakfast menu extends until 4pm. It’s a popular venue with visitors and locals alike, where you can relax and unwind, in a bright and cheery dining room. You can choose from a huge variety on their menu, including cooked breakfasts with Scottish elements like haggis and tattie scones, as well as traditional porridge with various toppings."

"Loudons is a stylish, spacious café in Fountainbridge that's ideal for getting some work done, or just relaxing on one of the comfy couches.

"Grams is the pinnacle of healthy food cafes and really puts the focus on catering to everyone’s requirements whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, gluten intolerant, they have something for you!. Since starting in 2015 selling raw, vegan, clean, dairy-free, gluten-free, refined sugar-free cakes at markets around the Capital. The brand amassed a huge following which led to them opening their own cafe which now provides you with all your brunch favourites – from avocado toast to pancakes to smoothie bowls!"

"With just a cursory glance at the menu, you’ll realise Grams is no ordinary brunch spot. With the mantra ‘eat better, not less’, it’s the discerning choice for those who would like to indulge in a decadent brunch but are concerned about healthy eating. Standout choices include a stack of Gram’s protein pancakes – made with whey protein and gluten-free oats and served Canadian-style or with fruit and yoghurt – which are guaranteed to sate even the hungriest appetite."

"With the mantra “eat better, not less”, Grams is the place to go for those who want a generous portion size without worrying too much about what’s in it. Grams’ mission is to make healthy food exciting and available to everyone."

"Penned as a destination for food that is nutritionally sound, seasonal and natural, MILK is one of the hippest breakfast eateries in the city. Creating dishes using Scottish grown and traditionally farmed food, diners can enjoy mushroom & rosemary breakfast burritos, full fry ups made with Red Tractor meats or eggs and Comte cheese for breakfast, while the cakes available all day long are delicious, fresh and fabulous. Steaming hot coffee also comes as standard here at MILK."

"What: With four locations currently operating across Edinburgh, Milk serves a succinct breakfast menu which mixes the classics with the novel. If you’re looking to try something different, go for the mushroom and rosemary burrito or the vegan fried breakfast, while sticklers for tradition can tuck into eggs any style or a bacon and cheese sarnie. There’s also every type of tea and coffee available to help wash it all down, including the option to have plant-based milk."

This shop is a little off the beaten path, but if you’re looking to take someone on a rainy day date (or you’re just too lazy to microwave yourself some soup – which I feel), head over to Maki Ramen and watch cars and people walk by while you guzzle down a bowl of hot ramen. Don’t forget to read the post-it note memories and doodles left on the wall by other customers, and maybe add your own to the mix!"

"Gaia is one of those small family friendly places where what really matters is the quality of the product. What you will find in this restaurant are a variety of pasta dishes, homemade soups and excellent sandwiches. Although it's not in the center, if you fancy well-made Italian food, it's worth the walk."

"This Sicilian delicatessen is also a great cafe and it has a warm, family friendly atmosphere. You'll find a wide array of tempting homemade breads, soups, salads and pasta dishes. They also make a mean cup of coffee."
