Red Kite Cafe in Edinburgh

Pros: Very kind staff and very good food. The porridge and the chocolate cake we ordered were the best of the best. Cappuccino was also really nice. The ambience is also nice. Even at full capacity the coffee shop was relatively okay to sit in noise wise.Cons: we were charged 50p extra for preferring soy milk over cow milk, come on people, it's 2022. The toilets were quite dirty and given we were seated quite close to the toilets it wasn't a pleasent experience.All in all a good place to grab a quick bite to eat or enjoy a cuppa.

I really love this place! The staff are so friendly, their coffee and desserts are yummy, and their brunch is just next-level. I had the eggs on sourdough with harissa and now I want to eat that everyday. A wonderful spot for lunch, highly recommend!

Tasty espresso, good vibes and food smelt good! Was open late on a Sunday too

Fantastic, best scones I've ever had! Cozy space, lots of food and drink options. Croque monsieur, smoked salmon sandwich and the quiche were all very tasty!

Stopped by while trying my wedding dress on across the street and the staff are so welcoming & friendly. The atmosphere is lovely very relaxed and the food was so delicious everything taste homemade loads of vegan/veg options. I got the yummy homade soup of the day and what looks like a veggie pastry and slice of the yummy blueberry cake with green tea extra full and happy tummy. Thank you I will be back ok my next visit to Edinburgh. Xxx

Busy cafe with nice atmosphere. Comfy and decent food. Suffering with a rare hangover, I popped in for a cooked breakfast. Although Scottish ingredients, it was lacking. No haggis, black pudding or tattie scone. I think I needed more 'greasey spoon'. Would recommend but not if you're skint!

One of the best Full breakfast in Edinburgh! Lovely cafe with friendly staff. Delicious cakes & take-away sandwiches & quiche available too!

A hidden jewel. Good decor, tasty food cooked with an individual quirk, great tea and space to enjoy your meal. A brilliant stop off and place to start your day. I recommend the fried eggs with harissa and the breakfast tea.

Very tasty breakfast, friendly environment and prepared staff. Also the coffee is good which is a bit of a rare gem.The display was full of tasty quiches and cakes.Highly recommended for brunches and coffee with group friends or on your own.

Lovely place with a bar table. Sitting table and a sofa. So you can sit ar your preferred height :) locally made dishes. Nice place with a friendly staff.
