Fantastic! - Edit
Was staying nearby and needed breakfast. Enjoyed a gorgeous scrambled tofu on sourdough bread, with additional potato scones on the side. All Yummy. Plus a pot of tea. Too early for cake but it all looked amazing. Did buy a cinamon swirl for later though and it was also lovely. Friendly lovely staff. Free WiFi.

Now totally vegan! - Edit
Chapter One Coffee is now totally vegan and I couldn't be happier. They have a great breakfast menu, including filled rolls, a vegan twist on the full Scottish and porridge bowls. The French toast is particularly yummy!

Great breakfasts - Edit
I had the tofu scramble and bacon on sourdough toast and it was delicious. The cafe seemed popular even mid morning on a weekday so they're obviously doing something right.

Nice place close to Haymarket - Edit
This is a nice coffee shop to hang out and have some vegan cake - they offer only espresso-based drinks (so no filter coffee) and the quality is alright, but not outstanding. The cakes are nice though and I liked the atmosphere. Probably the best choice for a coffee in the Haymarket area.
Read morePros: Nice place, many vegan cakes
Cons: Coffee is only okay
