Independent café bistro near the shore in Leith now incorporating a super deli.  Inspired by the Slow Food Movement to enjoy the passion of preparing and serving local produce sustainably grown and ethically sourced, they believe the best food is simple, to be shared with friends and using the best ingredients.

Menus frequently change to reflect producers and seasons, always using the produce at its best and cleverly marrying flavours together in harmony.

It is a dainty size and perfect for private functions and events (pictured) and tailored to your requirements. Families are welcomed and it is dog friendly too:)

David is a SF Cooks Alliance Member and hosted a wonderful buffet evening for Slow Food you can see pictured.
