My all time favourite coffee spot in New Town! I love the coffee here as it’s always perfect! If you need a good morning kick come here to get your caffeine bomb! The service is always very friendly and quick. Try their cheese toastie with your coffee and you’ll never want to leave the place!
Best independent coffee place around George street for customer service. The team were super friendly and brought my coffee out and brought it over to my table as I walked over. The cheese toastie with chillie jam was to die for! Although I think I gained 1/2 stone eating it! Haha
When I first moved to Edinburgh I read an article on Buzzfeed – 21 Incredible Things To Eat In Edinburgh Right Now. I quickly made it my mission to eat everything on this list (I am still working on it)! A grilled cheese from Cairngorm Coffee is one of the items in this list and being really close to my work I made it one of my first stops. Buzzfeed was absolutely correct. The grilled cheese is the best I have ever had! It is so simple yet so amazing; it literally oozes yumminess! The sourdough bread, cheese and chili jam complement each other perfectly and provide pleasure for both the mouth and nose. It is quite small inside, but it is perfect for a quick bite or coffee with friends, or by yourself as there is a bench which hosts a few iPads. Takeaway is also a very popular option. I have also tasted the Cubanos sandwich from Cairngorm Coffee and was just as delighted with that as I was with the grilled cheese. However, everyone NEEDS to try the grilled cheese here at least once!
Absolutely love this place, best cheese toastie in town and they also stock a really interesting range of soft drinks – new favourite is rhubarb and rehab basil from a local producer. Free wifi, amazing music, lovely staff and fabulous food & drink all result in a brilliant atmosphere.
have recently been trying to explore Edinburgh a little more, and with the weather being as nice recently I could wander round Edinburgh without getting cold or rained on. During my wanders I discovered my new favourite coffee shop, Cairngorm Coffee Co. I love stumbling upon place like this, it’s one of the reasons I love Edinburgh sp much. This coffee shop is on Fredrick Street, and other than the metal bike attached to the railing outside that says Cairngorm Coffee you almost wouldn’t notice it was there. It is down some stairs and below ground level. It isn’t huge, but it has a quite a few tables and seats, as well as seats on the street and also outside the door next to the stair. It also has two iPads built into one of its work benches which are free to use, which I think is a great touch!! Not to mention the free wifi if you needed it. It has a really relaxed vibe, and the music they play is so good, they played some really good stuff including the Kooks and James Bay, I loved it, I didn’t need to stick my headphones in. In terms of food, it was super yummy! I had a grilled cheese sandwich which was incredible. I then had a salted caramel brownie which was also amazing, and the coffee was so good. They also had a water dispenser which had bits of water melon in it, so the water tasted a little of water melon and I really liked that. You could help yourself to as much or as little water as you wanted. This place has only been open a year, but I wish I hand discovered it much sooner, I just love it. I could spend all day in here easily, I highly recommend!! fashionpolaroids.co.uk
So not only does this place do amazing food but the staff are lovely! I had a famous grilled cheese and chilli sandwich. And it was just yummy! Best grilled sandwich I have ever had!!! Then I treated myself to a peanut butter brownie, and well where do I start. Yum, give me more, orgasmic and just buy it!!!! If u have a sweet tooth and u love brownies this is a must!!! The coffee is also amazing! Done with skill! What I also love is the free water in which is always infused with something like oranges or cucumber, just gives it a different but lovely touch! Just go, you won’t be disappointed!
Good not Great. This newish caf is in a great location but is easy to miss due to it’s basement location. Once inside it’s nicely finished but a bit claustrophobic due to the dim lighting and lack of windows. The coffee was very good but quite expensive given the small cup. The competition in this area is extremely tough and you really have to be exceptional to survive here. With Wellington Coffee across the street pulling in the customers, I don’t rate their chances of survival.
