About The Observatory Coffee Shop

Tucked inside an art gallery on Marchmont Street, The Observatory Coffee Shop has a cosy, creative feel — the sort of place where little ones can take in the artwork while you enjoy a coffee and something genuinely good to eat. The menu is on the compact side, but what's on offer is carefully done, and there are vegan options available alongside a kids' menu. Highchairs are generally on hand, the café is easy to navigate with a buggy, and there's some outdoor space too, though it's worth knowing there's no baby-changing facility on site.
