The best ‘classic’ vegan breakfast I’ve ever had. (And I have had quite a few!). No nonsense components - just great simple ingredients cooked nicely (inc. vegan haggis!). Also, quick and friendly service, and a nice chilled buzz to the atmosphere, despite being a relatively small cafe. Would definitely recommend popping by for a ‘Vegan Flat Breakfast’.

Many options for breakfast. It is great that they have Mediterranean breakfast. Big portions. Fair prices. Crowded place. Better to be here before 10AM.

Really nice cafe, small but that gives it a cosy vibe. Came here for brunch and the food was really lovely, and the smoothie I had was delicious! Definitely recommend for breakfast/brunch!

Scotland knows how to do breakfast! My God it was delicious and nutritious, I tried the haggis for the first time and it was interesting. All I could say is that it’s something completely different to anything I’ve had before, and it’s a must try. Personally, I didn’t love them, but wouldn’t mind eating haggis again.
The ambience in this place was amazing, so cozy and the service was great!
Nice quiet place to eat some late breakfast / early lunch. Friendly service & a lot of options to choose from. We ordered an all day breakfast, french toast with bacon & a baked potato with beans and cheese for our family. All were tasty. French toast was very filling. Overall good experience :)

Excellent café in a central location. The service and quality of the food is superb. Spotlessly clean with a wide range of choices on the menu. Coffee is first class. Always worth a visit when in town. Thanks and see you soon 👍

We were looking for a breakfast place behind Princes Street at around 11 am. Most of the places on the street are restaurants that cater to lunch/dinner.
After walking a bit, we came across Rose Street Cafe. It's a small place but was buzzing with customers.
My criteria for a good place to eat is one that is busy, which is an indicator of its popularity.
I tried their English Breakfast (I am still not brave enough to go for Scottish breakfast/haggis).
The food was great.

Small cafe with outdoor seating that hit the spot for us after walking around New Town for a few hours. The server was friendly and attentive.
I had a hand and cheese toasty with salad and my gf had a burger. We both enjoyed our meals, simple but tasty. I also had a beer which was perfect on that sunny afternoon.
We'd definitely visit again if in the area.

If you're looking for a quiet quick bite it would be ok. The food tasted fine, but was overcooked and kinda dried out. The waiter was friendly and helpful.

My husband and I both got full Scottish breakfasts - vegetarian for me and full for him. Both were good and, as expected, huge. I can't say I'm a fan of beans and tomatoes for breakfast, but that's hardly Rose Street Cafe's fault: everything was well prepared and came out quickly. Also, the staff was friendly and attentive.

Not bad. Not great either. I had the Scottish Breakfast. The mushrooms and the haggis were my favorite parts. One side of my toast was burnt. My wife had the British Breakfast, and she didn't like the black pudding. Everything on our plates seemed kind of carelessly thrown together. Though I wasn't expecting anything special, since I knew this was a casual diner, I was hoping for good cooking. 2.5 stars.

I wanted to try one of their pies but they were all out. I like the All-Day Breakfast choices. They offer a lot of fresh smoothies options. We ordered one of the veggie smoothie (I forgot which one) and its was really good and a mocha (gotta love espresso in Europe). The fish and chips were good and the fish was bigger than I expected. Nice and simple meal with friendly staff.
