Delicious! - Edit
Went here for breakfast and had the tofu benedict which was so delicious (albeit maybe a bit on the salty side). The hollandaise was so moorish I could have had a bowl of it.
Read moreI also had a dirty chai which was so creamy and decadent. I wish this cafe was in my hometown!

Best Tofu Benedict ever! - Edit
Popped here for lunch today. Tiny friendly space - the tofu. Benedict was amazing with homemade seitan bacon and a delicious sauce. Also stocked up on some vegan ham, sausages and cheese which look exciting. Smashing.

Just, so good - Edit
Extremely cozy, delicious food. We both got the Full Breakfast, and while I don’t really know what it’s “supposed” to taste like, I thought all of the substitutes were well thought out and delicious.

Worth a visit (or two) - Edit
We are visiting and came here upon arrival and we are not disappointed. The full breakfast was amazing and the 'nae egg' was some of the best scramble we have ever had. They make it in house and it was shockingly good. Also had a biscoff bun that was good. Coffee was good as well. As mentioned very small space so plan for possible take away. Service was amazing and friendly. Highly recommend.

Delicious all-vegan breakfast at Black Rabbit—small spot, big flavors! - Edit
We had an excellent breakfast at Black Rabbit, a cozy, fully vegan café in Edinburgh. The Full Vegan Breakfast was absolutely delicious—hearty, flavorful, and beautifully prepared. A perfect way to start the day!
Read moreJust a small heads-up: the standard breakfast contains gluten, but they do offer gluten-free bread and are happy to accommodate dietary needs—just let them know. The chef is clearly thoughtful about options.
The drink menu features a nice variety of hot teas and specialty coffee drinks, all plant-based, of course. The café itself is quite small—it seats about 10 people max—so you might need to wait a bit during busy hours, but it’s well worth it.
Highly recommend for anyone looking for a quality vegan meal in a relaxed, welcoming space. A real find in Edinburgh!

Really outstation cafe - Edit
Small cafe, with a really sweet couple that runs it. We had a haggis sandwich, egg and cress sandwich, and sausage roll. Everything was great and the roll stood out with ita flaky pastry and addition or tofu scramble. It is a must see spot, off the beaten path

Very delicious sandwich - Edit
The place is very small so you need some luck to get a seat. The Tofu Teriyaki Sandwich was very delicious. Take away prices are cheaper.

Delicious sandwiches, cakes, and drinks. Good selection of vegan cheese and deli meats to buy. A must visit for vegans in Edinburgh. Good location to get something to go eat on The Meadows.

Average - Edit
Went here for a sandwich and was pretty disappointed. I had the ‘egg’ mayo and found the bread way too doughy and the contents a bit bland. With a bit of love and attention to detail, could be so much better. Maybe the cakes are good but I don’t eat cakes. Giving 3 stars because the place is at least 100% vegan.
