Absolutely lovely

Excessively rude member of staff and very poor experience- complaint handled very poorly by manager. Disappointing as I regularly attended but will not be returning. There are plenty of places in Portobello where you will not be treated poorly and have to pay for the experience.

Black puddings more like warmed-up slabs of pate - entirely undercooked. If the waitress could've been more obvious that she wanted us out for the next customer 5 seconds after we'd finished the coffees she may as well put an egg timer on the table. Overpriced. Over-rated. Underperforming.

We had breakfast here & really enjoyed a healthy & nutritious meal on the beach. The cake selection was amazing & we enjoyed our brownie to take away :)

Bel locale di fronte alla spiaggia, l’ambiente è piacevole r rilassante e dalle finestre si gode la vista del mare. qui di possono avere gustosi panini, piatti vari e zuppe per uno spuntino veloce. C’è una grande selezione di torte e biscotti. Il servizio è attento e cordiale. Consigliato.

Another cafe I love going to! I've lost count of the number of times I've visited! It is very popular and if you want to avoid the queues, go early!

Joining the other customers who have experienced the 'rude' individuals working here. Nothing against the food or drink or the lovely girl who took our order, but the initial encounter was dreadful. A snide comment and sarcastic look when being told that we could sit once the table was cleaned, followed by eye rolls to a fellow staff member. When table cleared ignored then when asking if we can now sit we were barked at to stay put until told. Once sat I watched the interaction between the two and saw the shrugging shoulders, further eye rolls etc. The culture between these two is not customer orientated, more 'us' against 'them' (the stupid, annoying customer). I can see they are busy, I can see they are working hard, but they need to learn the correct words to use in such situations or they will continue to spoil the experience for future customers, looking at the negative reviews, I can see this is not uncommon. Correct words could be ' welcome, I'll quickly prepare the table then come and get you in just a moment'. Or 'can you wait here just a moment, here's the menu, I am just going to prepare your table and I'll be back in just a minute'. I've worked in the hospitality industry for more than 20yrs and these guys need re programming.

Beautiful location and venue but food is mediocre and service was average. One egg in a £14 shakshuka that is basically a bland tomato sauce. The English muffin was clearly stale. I won’t eat a meal here again but will have cake and enjoy the view.

The view is absolutely stunning—perfectly positioned to enjoy both the beach and the sunshine. The French toast is incredible—super soft and juicy, with perfectly cooked bacon, cinnamon sauce, and maple syrup. It’s definitely a must-try. The salmon and avocado toast is also fantastic, with fresh, thick slices of smoked salmon, though my friend found the bread a bit too chewy. The pigs in a blanket were just okay, but I’d recommend adding scrambled eggs for an extra boost. The coffee is great, and it’s also pet-friendly.

Great Breakfast Spot. We stayed done the beach for a week and really liked the location and vibe inside the Café. Great selection of bakerys and other breakfast items on the menu. I would recommend the salmon bagel.
