Mimi’s Bakehouse is a second-generation family business established in Edinburgh in 2010, when Michelle Phillips sold her family home to open a bakery café in Leith. We have gone on to build a local success story brand that gives people a ‘hug when they walk in the door’ as the original café has since doubled in size and the business has gained five more shops, a successful website selling cakes online and a concession at Archerfield Walled Garden. We also opened an industrial bakery in March 2020, out of which most online trade is produced for fulfilment. Mimi’s Bakehouse has become one of Edinburgh’s best-loved bakeries and an award-winning brand which is a well-known “feel good” place to visit, while remaining small enough to go the extra mile and try new things.

We had a lovely window table with plenty of room. We both had a light lunch but thoroughly enjoyed our food. Servers were friendly and efficient but not obtrusive.

Great food, coffees took longer than our breakfast to be served though which was a shame but not a massive deal. I would say we would have found it more relaxing had the tables of two not been so close together. We were squeezed into a middle table with people on the other side. Felt like we were having brunch with random people. They should be more spaced out so you’re not on top of each other. Felt it was slightly uncomfortable and awkward. Apart from that food was great.

My partner and I were visiting Scotland for the first time and were recommended Mimi's as a brunch option for after our flight. The food was delicious and the staff were lovely, I'll definitely be recommending it to any friends who pass through Edinburgh!
