The Old Spence Café

Cafe · North Leith

"This snug cafe, tucked away on Constitution Street, is one of the best places for breakfast or brunch near the Shore. Decorated with old boomboxes and tapes, and offset with a neutral interior, it's probably the least try-hard place in the area. Opt for the smoked salmon eggs, served with artisan bread from our friends at Twelve Triangles. Pair it with a flat white (Hamza’s latte skills are next level) or go green with a *Schwarzenegger* Action Smoothie. They also do their own home baking - the carrot cake is recommended. Your waistline may be furious, but you’ll be satisfied." - fourcolourblack
