  • Any recommendations for coffee spots in Edinburgh? No level of wankery is too high.

  • Say no more. Artisan Roast. My favorite roaster anywhere. I’ve now lived in London, NYC and LA (I know that sounds very wanky) and try a lot a lot of different roasters. I am yet to find a coffee as enjoyable as many of the coffees I’ve had from Artisan.

  • Lowdown was the best coffee I had there but in a very stark atmosphere if I remember rightly.
    Fortitude was good coffee and much more welcoming, reminded me of 46b in Hackney. Really friendly.
    (I don’t remember what roasteries either were using, which I realise is maybe what you’re after)

  • I had a very enjoyable flat white in Fortitude last week.

  • We have been getting beans from machina espresso, cafe isn't particularly wankery though. I've heard good things about costello too

  • Cult Espresso (food is really good here too), Cairngorm Coffee, Brew Lab. Can also recommend Lowdown, Machina and Artisan Roast. So much good coffee in Edinburgh!

  • There's some great spots in Edinburgh, spoilt for choice! My picks in no particular order would be as follows, hopefully giving you a fairly good spread across the city.

    1. Artisan Roast
    2. Caingorm (Melville Place branch - think it might have been an old bank)
    3. Fortitude (opened a second branch not too long ago)
    4. Cult Espresso
