10 Best Coffee Shops in Edinburgh | Condé Nast Traveler

"The Milkman, set in a refurbished confectionery shop on Old Town’s Cockburn Street, is a nod to owner Mark Donald’s great-grandfather, who once delivered milk by horse-drawn carriage in North East Scotland (the logo is his silhouette). After an extensive restoration, which exposed the building’s original signage and interior stone walls, the cafe opened in 2015; its intimate 14-seat mix of window benches and tartan-upholstered stools provides a comfy respite for passersby in need of a warming, well-made cup of coffee. Products from local chocolatiers Edward & Irwyn and Chocolate Tree enrich the hot chocolates; Pekoe Tea provides the herbal steeps." - Danielle Bernabe
