The first breakfast brunch venue in Amsterdam finally makes it to Scotland!
ALL DAY Breakfast / Brunch and Lunch menu. Vegan - Vegetarian and Gluten Free dishes and options. Fully licenced and located in the centre of town just off George Street and 5 minutes from Princes Street and the Station.
Dutch inspired and owned.
Homemade drinks and all food prepared fresh daily.
We pride ourselves on sourcing top quality local ingredients and make our products fresh on the premises as much as we can. And of course, we also brought our Dutch roots with us as well. You’ll find it on the menu and in the restaurant itself. Fancy some traditional Dutch ‘appeltaart’ (apple pie)?
Many parking spots just down the hill from the restaurant.

Great place.
Warmly welcomed, great menu choice on offer for breakfast/brunch.
We ordered the full breakfast and the classic Eggs Benedict with a side of mushrooms. Both were perfect.
Our coffees were great to start with and the service throughout was spot on.
We will be back and would most definitely highly recommend.
Don’t forget to book first as it was very busy.

Food was excellent, and it features one of the best brunch menus in Edinburgh. The pancake stack was delicious and offered great value for money. The staff were friendly, courteous, and efficient, contributing to a lovely atmosphere. I highly recommend it.

Lovely cosy restaurant in the New Town. We were lucky enough to have a window seat which was great. The service was friendly and efficient. The chai latte was perfect and americano good. The eggs poached perfectly on home-made hash browns, smoked salmon, hollandaise...delicious! It is extremely busy so best to book in advance. Look forward to visiting again.

Recommended to try by a family member who lives in Edinburgh. Did not disappoint. Food was excellent, completely different take on salmon Benedict and it did not disappoint, it was amazing. Fresh ingredients and the eggs were cooked to perfection. Will be back!
