10 Best Coffee Shops in Edinburgh
"Located near the Meadows, Considerit is a relatively new addition to Edinburgh’s exciting foodie scene. If you’re vegan or lactose intolerant, this is one for you as Considerit believe in a plant-based future and therefore all their sweet treats are free from animal products!. Also, their doughnuts, chocolate, and ice cream are all hand crafted on a daily basis."
"Vegans don’t have to miss out on dessert, especially in Edinburgh!. Considerit is a chocolate, doughnut and ice cream cafe that’s entirely vegan. They sell the most amazing and indulgent doughnuts, like this amazing chocolate hobnob creation, which is glazed with Biscoff spread, topped with crumbled oaty Hobnobs and finished with a chocolate drizzle."
"New Town is architecturally stunning and is full of wonderful cafes, we think you’ll love staying here:. The Bearded Baker started off by supplying wholesale bagels to many of the city’s best cafes, and when the opportunity arose to turn The Bearded Baker into a cafe, they jumped at the opportunity!. We’re so glad they did as the cafe is a gem, and most importantly they also serve up a fabulous range of delectable doughnuts."
"With the Royal Botanic Gardens nearby, Canonmills is a lovely part of Edinburgh to stay in, and we think you’ll enjoy your stay at. The Bearded Baker is a cosy bakery and coffee shop located in Canonmills – who are famous for their delicious bagels!. As well as bagels, they also offer a variety of cakes, doughnuts, sourdough loaves and coffee!"
"Bearded baker Rowan creates his bagels and treats from scratch every day, and it really shows. Where: 46 Rodney St, EH7. Shop online at:thebeardedbaker.co.uk"
"Tucked away in Marchmont, Deadly Donuts pride themselves on serving up freshly made, high quality and different doughnut recipes on a daily basis. The shop is owned by classically trained chef, Freddie Spindler, and their selection of doughnuts range from traditional flavours, to the more intriguing flavours such as matcha green tea.

"Conveniently located on the Royal Mile, The Inn on the Mile occupies one of the city’s most prestigious historic landmarks, the British Linen Bank. The building’s heritage has been sensitively preserved while creating a homely boutique hotel that is welcoming and comfortable, with each of the nine bedrooms offering clean, contemporary interiors. A lockable safe, iPod dock, GHD hair straighteners, and a large flatscreen television are standard in all rooms, while delicious home cooked dishes that exploit the finest flavours of locally sourced ingredients are served fresh from the Inn on the Mile kitchen."
"Tucked along the Royal Mile, The Inn on the Mile offers a quaint honeymoon experience. A lot of local attractions, shops, bars and restaurants are a short walk away, but if you want to venture further out, Edinburgh Waverley station is only 5 minutes walk away. Warm guest rooms have flat-screens, well-stocked minibars, coffee makers and bathrooms with rainfall showerheads and free-standing hot tubs."
"Best for Partygoers In a nutshell Pub lovers, this Royal Mile hotel could be just the place you’re looking for. With nine modern bedrooms, The Inn on the Mile, as the name suggests, is also home to a lively pub and kitchen. Once the British Linen Bank, the eye-catching building with its ornate frontage still retains references to its banking past (like the pennies on the front of the bar)."
"It's by the sea – Newhaven Harbour is across the street – the interior looks like a well-appointed surf shack and it has ceviche, chowder, lobster, mussels and oysters on the menu. Meanwhile the specials board could bring scallops with black pudding, sea bream with potatoes, samphire and potted shrimp, and other simple, fresh dishes. Given the owners are Thai – and the premises used to house a Thai restaurant – there may be even be some Asian-inflected options at times."
"I had several nice meals at Olly Bongo’s during my student years at Edinburgh University. This Mediterranean cafe offers a selection of sandwiches and wraps, as well as Turkish and Greek dishes, including moussaka and lamb koftas (very tasty!). I also love the Greek and Turkish decor of this place – it’s so bright and colourful."
