Brunch here was probably the highlight of our stay. The turmeric smoothie was a revelation and paired perfectly with the baked eggs. Staff were helpful and knowledgeable concerning our Gluten intolerances. It's not often you're spoilt for choice for gluten free options, but this is one I heartily recommend (yes, that is GF haggis and black pudding)

The urban angel cafe serves humble classic dishes in an innovative modern style. The presentation is simply beautiful. I loved their breakfast bowls.It’s dog friendly, with lots of pups around and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. It’s everything you want in a cafe. The service is excellent, with friendly and helpful staff. I will definitely be back for more.

My wife and I went here for lunch the other week. We didn’t have a booking and it was busy so the gent said that we could get a table if we come back at 13:30. When we came back at 13:30 the guy said that we were lucky because he was about to give the table to someone else because he had us booked in for 13:15. So obviously an error on his part but we all make mistakes. Although, I don’t think he owned up to it. Anyway the staff were very friendly. There is a good selection on the menu. My wife and I got a couple of smoothies which were ok although I had to get our own straws. My green smoothie wasn’t as enjoyable as my wife’s. For food my wife got the soup and focaccia which she really enjoyed. It was surprisingly filling. I got the carrot and kale salad as well as a toastie (can’t remember the filling). Both of these were lovely. The sweet chilli sauce that came with the toastie was tasty. I would say it was a little on the expensive side but I suppose it is city centre so what do you expect? I cafe itself is a lot bigger than you would expect from looking from the outside. I love the relaxed vibe of the place.

I stayed in Edinburgh for a week and couldn't find a brunch spot to beat Urban Angel. Went here twice and both times there was absolutely sensational food and drink with a cosy vibe. The french toast and fresh juices are especially incredible ?

This is a brunch spot that you must visit while in Edinburgh. The restaurant feels cosy and welcoming, almost like a home.The food is delicious! We had the egg benny with spinach and mushrooms along with zaatar scrambled egg on toast. They were soo good!My partner had a raw chocolate smoothie which was great. Highly recommend going here if you have time for brunch.

The brunch is outstanding! Definitely a must-visit if you're in the area. We had breakfast there multiple times in our week-long stay in Edinburgh because it was just so good. If you want to make sure you can dine-in, definitely make a reservation. Compared to prices in the States, totally reasonable for amazing food

Best coffee in Edinburgh. Very tasty food, I would recommend trying their scones. The staff is incredibly polite and friendly. Second time we came, they remembered our order from the first time we been there, and when we came third time, we were already joking with the employee.

Cute little place off the main strip. Nice variety and large portions. Lacked silverware at the table, but easily remedied. Tried two different kinds of French toast. Lite on the toast, heavy on the Toppings.

the best breakfast spot and food that I had in Edinburgh. You have to go there before 10 in the morning or else you’ll find yourselves lining up outside. High recommend
By far the best breakfast spot and food that I had in Edinburgh. From coffee to their meals - especially the bacon. What I don’t like is food was serve a little bit late but over-all it was worth it. You have to go there before 10 in the morning or else you’ll find yourselves lining up outside.

Such a lovely spot, great options for vegetarians. The baked eggs are to die for. All the girls are so nice and helpful. A bit on the pricier side but definitely worth it! Absolutely would recommend.

This is the place to brunch! This is not boujee brunch, but a lovely place to congregate with friends or family for a laid back Saturday morning.Atmosphere: Loved the hippie dippy vibe. Again very casual and laid back. It's the place I'd want to go if it was a rainy, chilly Saturday morning.Food: Nothing about this food is fancy by any means, but this is a great place for porridge, hummus toast, or eggs. Again, very cozy and chill. The porridge with the crumble on top is the best way to go in my opinion. It was so good that 2 other people dining with me ordered it as well. We also did an order of the hummus toast with za'atar, pickled shallots, chickpeas, and parsley. It was the most basic food, but so comforting and each bite was delicious.Reservations: Make one! If you don't you will be so upset that the wait is longggg.The reviews are no joke, this place is totally worth every star! If you live in Edinburgh or are just visiting this place is a must!

We’ve just been there, had a banana loaf, scone with butter and jam, macchiato, chamomile tea, paid 20(I even tipped, originally was £18.04), very low quality, they even charged for something else…compare with other places we’ve been, such a shame..our expectations not too high, but for this price would be some. Service was okay, girls were nice, chatty, bubbly, our dog got water, was nice from them,,but overAll, could not satisfy our expectations. Nice place but won’t come back and not really recommend to my friends either. Very disappointed ☹️

The mushroom of Egg Benedict was too salty but overall including service was fine. Recommending their French toast.
