Cult Coffee Roasters

This is a good place to try high quality filter coffee, the staff is quite friendly, and overall the interior is cosy. My experience, however, wasn’t that great for a few reasons. 1. The seats in the shop aren’t much comfy if one wants to lead back and just read a book with a cup of coffee. There are just two soft chairs but they are situated literally at the entrance with people in/out all the time. 2. There is one more issue to add to the previous point. The door closer doesn’t work properly, it leaves a big gap until you push it further. Sadly, even that doesn’t help to get rid of the gap, the door just isn’t sealed properly, which isn’t that nice to have in colder seasons. 3. The choice of music is something that can be rather personal, but I don’t really understand having partying like music in a cosy coffee shop, such as Livin' La Vida Loca playing loudly. But maybe that aligns with the atmosphere Cult is trying to create… These are some things I found bothersome despite the coffee and place being good overall. But I hope it can all be improved in the future :) UPD: It’s funny that this has been almost a month, the winter progressed further, the temperatures fell lower, but the door gap remains. Although the staff is reportedly aware of the issue.

Absolutely the best oat latte I’ve ever had and ive literally tried all the oat lattes in east London. It’s the perfect combination of richness and aroma of coffee that most of the time you can’t even get one not to mention both at the same time. We also asked for a different blend of espresso for the other oat latter and it offers more punch and flavor. The house blend was perfect for me but my friend preferred the special blend. Take your pick, you won’t be disappointed.

They recommended a filter coffee, it was really excellent. If you know coffee you'll appreciate this place. The food was great, but for the price I'd have liked another slice of toast with my eggs. One for the Star wars and Coffee fans

Very cool coffe shop. Plenty of tables and you can use your laptop. The coffee was really good too. Non dairy alternatives available.

Super cute café with great food and even better coffee. The space is quite calm & cozy, creating an overall peaceful atmosphere perfect for sipping some freshly brewed coffee on a chilly day in Edinburgh. Highly recommend! :)

There is no competition. This place does the best coffee in Edinburgh. I literally can't even describe the flavour of the coffee here. Lots to unpack and too much to write In this review. Just need to try for yourself. It's a little on the expensive end but undoubtedly worth it. I was sceptical about a 7 quid cup of coffee but it was one of the most flavourful and interesting things I've ever drank. Great place to hang out, study, have a business meeting. These guys know what they are doing. Still got a few coffees to try and I'm looking forward to it.

My go to for the last month. Been here like 10+ times 🫠😂 I really like the coffee they have here. Staff is quite nice. WiFi works well. They have the crownie from 101 bakery which is my favourite. The poached eggs toast is REALLY good. Also good price; and it comes with a hot sauce which I am becoming a fan of. Used to be liquid but I love that they changed it for a more creamy sauce. Tried the big cheese. Not very fan of it being like a toasty. The breakfast platter is also very good. Honestly the fact that the butter is not cold and hard, and that they put some salt on it is such a big difference. I do think the difference is in the details.

Probably my favourite café in Edinburgh. I was lucky enough to be shown the place by a friend and now I go back whenever I feel like starting the day nicely. Great staff, brilliant coffee and I love their salmon toast.
