We visited to Patisserie Valerie Cafe during our Edinburgh trip to relax. Nice and cozy place to drink coffee and eat dessert :)

Entered around lunchtime and felt like the place was untidy.Seated and order was taken. 2 coffees and 2 different cakes.We ordered 2 exactly the same, creme brulee lattes, and yet neither of them tasted like they had any 'creme brulee' in it, meaning, more than likely, the monin syrup They both had toffee sauce around the rim of the glass, but only one had been dipped into the demerara sugar. Coffee was incredibly weak, even for a latte.The cakes, mille-feullie and strawberry gateaux...stale, tasteless, lifeless.The cakes, as you walk in on your right-hand side, are completely open to the elements and are right next to the door. Hence, the staleness.The display just looked very sad.When eating the cakes, they just felt very processed and artificial.The gentleman behind the counter was very nice - he had a great smile and good energy.I will be avoiding all Patisserie Valerie's in the future.

Very poor and expensive. Tea? No English Breakfast. Earl Grey, then. No lemon. We were the only people in the place and they put a noisy American family so close to us that they couldn't sit down without us moving our chairs. We won't be back.

We came in late on a busy Sunday, kitchen was closed. However all we wanted was some cake and drinks. The lady greeted us politely and the gentleman working alongside her secured us a table which was cleaned before we got to it. The drinks, patisserie and service was fantastic and very welcoming. Thank you!

The Food was rubbish, the Coffe tasted like Expired milk, and We got kicked out for “blocking the way.” Unbelievable!

Amazing! Had afternoon tea with a gift voucher and it was delicious. Said I was vegetarian and was not a problem to get all veggie sandwiches. Scones were warm which was a nice touch. Good selection of cakes and all lovely. Staff were really nice and food came quick.

The pastry is usually good, I love the cinnamon wheel, but I have to say a few days ago I ordered Benedict eggs and they were fine but the bread was still a bit frozen, really cold and hard to cut. Apart from that I like the place.
What an absolute gem of a place!Had afternoon tea with my husband and absolutely NOTHING could be improved on! From the food, staff and ambience … keep it up guys and girls!Vegetarian options: Delightful … lots of variety!

Fantastic and super friendly service. Food is delicious ? No need to book, although I imagine it gets pretty busy at peak times.

While in Edinburgh we were looking for a place to have an afternoon tea and came across this shop on Rose Street . The pastries in the window looked amazing! What an adorable restaurant that also serves breakfast and lunch . The server was so polite , kind and welcoming . They also have an upstairs with more seating . We ordered our teas and scones along with the clotted butter and jam . I chose the red berry tea which I had for the first time and it was surprisingly fruity and delicious ! The scones were small but fresh and flaky and with the clotted butter and jam our taste buds were in heaven! We totally enjoyed our tea and scones and highly recommend this lovely spot.

A few months ago, my partner purchased me an afternoon tea here as a present.And it was a delight.The cake were sublime, scones were morish and even the sandwiches felt special.The staff were helpful and friendly. A real treat! Thank you

Sometimes I buy a whole cake from here, and I am usually satisfied with the quality of cake. Today I sat at the table and ordered a piece of cake, but it was too dry to eat. Only black forest gateau was alright though. I think it may depend on how the cake is fresh and old.
