Brunch · Edinburgh
Stockbridge wandering is thirsty work, and this is a good place to land afterwards — bright, casual and roomy enough that a pram isn't a problem, with outdoor tables when the weather allows. Breakfast is the main event: poached eggs with avocado and hollandaise, the Pantry Fry with haggis and black pudding, and truffle breakfast chips that people genuinely rave about. The veggie and vegan cooking is properly good rather than an afterthought, with sweet potato, courgette and guacamole plates, so nobody gets stuck with toast. There's a kids' menu and high chairs, and the staff are friendly and quick to sort things out. Worth knowing: Sunday mornings bring a queue and a longer wait for food, so go early with small, hungry children or expect a bit of standing about.
A little something creative for your next meal out. Filled with colouring, simple drawing prompts for cute animals, origami and conversation starters designed to bring more play, laughter and connection to the table. 3 free printable packs for toddlers, preschoolers and primary-aged children.
