Wonderful pub and food - Edit
This place is top notch. Went in on a Monday at noon and they asked us if we had a reservation. We did not. The only seating they had was at the bar. That’s how good this place is, you need a reservation for Monday at noon! We sat at the bar and enjoyed the soup of the day, sweet potato curry and the cauliflower wings. Both were as good as it gets. Also had a Newbarns lager, local beer made in Leith. One of the best lagers ever! Staff were super nice, music was great and the ambience is perfect.

Amazing food and service! - Edit
We just had dinner there and the service was so friendly and kind. We had veggie burger and gnocchi with mushrooms. For dessert, apple crumble and pumpkin cheesecake. Everything extremely delicious!

Another great breakfast - Edit
Second time we have been and again brilliant. It’s a lovely space, staff are absolutely brilliant, food and drinks are tasty and loads of it. I can eat and I was bursting at the seams. The only negative is we live 500 miles away from them!

If only I could give it five stars…. - Edit
A good range of vegan options to match the omni offerings. If you are looking for somewhere to go in ‘mixed company’ I would heartily recommend Roseleaf.
Read moreThe range of local beers is more than enough to tempt you across the threshold, but the food will make you stay.
Pros: Service excellent, Amazing beer, Good range of vegan options.

Don’t overlook this gem - Edit
Popped in for an early lunch. Separate vegan menu with a great range of options from fungi, full breakfasts to shakshuka. Not only that a lovely bottle of Chenin to wash it down. Was fantastic and a really good price. As always with great food comes great staff, so friendly, helpful and delighted we had enjoyed our food. Everything we had we recommend

Great food and good atmosphere - Edit
We just popped in, and were delighted to find that they have a plant-based menu. All the food was good, the staff were friendly and the atmosphere was great. We've been back a few times since and it can get quite noisy (and booked up) at busy times, but it's well worth a visit.

Lovely staff,drinks and venue - Edit
Good choice of vegan food. Oat milk no extra charge. Lovely place with cute crockery and silverware. My vegan breakfast was quite dry and not the best, but I will go back and try other things.

Charming and Delicious - Edit
A cozy pub and restaurant with kind service and a large vegan menu. You do need to ask for the separate vegan menu. The Korean Cauliflower wings are some of the best I've ever had–a thick crispy coating over firm but fully cooked cauliflower with a tangy soy sauce and charred lime. Delicious!

All day breakfast - Edit
Love this little bar café - it has a dedicated vegan menu including all day breakfast. I had the hummus with a side of chips, but I was also jealously eyeing up my dining partner's 'green machine' sweetcorn fritters and the 'funky fungi' mushrooms on toast :D

Not bad - Edit
I don’t think their vegan menu is anything to shout home about but they do put on a good vegan special on occasion.
Read moreETA: they now have vegan macaroni on the menu which is delicious. It is very truffle-y though!

Lovely family-run pub with separate vegan menu - Edit
So glad to have stumbled across this place after walking the Water of Leith route from Stockbridge. They have a separate vegan menu with plenty of delicious looking options. We both went for the bean burger, which was incredible — I particularly loved the mixture of textures with the soft patty and crunchy slaw, and that it came with homemade chips. You can tell they make a lot of effort to cater to vegans, as the super friendly bar staff advised us on what we could order off the drinks menu. The decor and ambience are also lovely. Definitely worth a visit and I’d be here all the time if I lived locally.

Brilliant food and friendly staff - Edit
We love Roseleaf in Leith for the lively atmosphere and friendly staff. There are lots of vegetarian and vegan options and the menu changes so there is always something new to try. The cocktails and fresh fruit juices are amazing. There is also a vegetarian breakfast which we sometimes go for and the veggie haggis is delicious. We love the decor and there is always different art work on display.

Lovely place - Edit
They have a seperate vegan menu and I ordered the soup, which was labeled as vegan. But because the soup that they have changes daily, on that day it unfortunately wasn't suitable for vegans.
Read moreThe waitress cleared up the misunderstanding after asking the kitchen chef about it. She brought back the menu and helped me find something else. I ended up taking the dahl and the avocado toast. Both were very delicious.
The place is quite quirky and fun.
Pros: Very helpful staff
Cons: Soup labeled vegan wasn't vegan that day
