Great brunch restaurant! Friendly and attentive staff and their food is amazing. We actually tried to book a table but apparently didn’t hit the last confirmation button, however, there was a spot open and we were assigned a seat. Their pancake stack with bacon was great. The Bellini very tasty. Can only recommend

A very busy shop would require advance booking. The portions are not well-balanced tbf for same price but all tastes good. Coffee came too sweet and no impression as all but we both love the big bagels and banana breads the most, pancake abit overcooked but overall food is decent and worth a try!

Booked a table for 8:30am the day before as it’s clearly a popular spot. When we arrived the café was already almost full. It’s a nice, cozy place, though quite small and a bit cramped when busy. I had the eggs Benedict and my wife ordered sourdough with scramble and sausage. Overall it was okay maybe abit pricey considering the Benedict was a little bland and the eggs weren’t really runny. I also added sautéed mushrooms but they were quite watery rather than properly sautée. I do though recommend it overall as they were polite and welcoming, service wise and its a nice little bistro.

Very busy brunch spot in Edinburgh. We made a reservation a couple of days in advance, which is definitely recommended. The place is very Instagrammable and the service is friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the food was a bit disappointing. We ordered the Eggs Mexicana and the Breakfast Stack Pancakes. What we liked least was the big difference in portion sizes. Since the dishes are similarly priced, you would expect similar portions. The Eggs Mexicana were tasty, but the portion was super small, if you ordered only this, you would probably leave still feeling hungry. The Breakfast Stack Pancakes, on the other hand, were a very generous portion. We were glad we could share both dishes so we didn’t leave hungry. Overall, it’s a great place for nice photos and a lively atmosphere, but if you’re mainly looking for an excellent brunch, there are better options in Edinburgh.

This place was absolutely splendid. The food has an excellent taste and fresh quality. I ordered the banana bread, a side of eggs, hashbrowns and fresh squeezed orange juice. The ambience was warm and the service as expected in Edinburgh was 10/10. Greenwoods is a must try.
