Everything perfect! Was my first experience in a Scottish restaurante and couldn’t be better. The staff is nice and friendly. The ambience and decor in very cool, cozy and hipster. The full breakfast is awesome, very tasted. And if you go there try a table next to the windows because the view for the garden is magical!
FREDERICKS is a nice place for coffee and lunch. Food was good but service not so good. I had nachos and it was alright. The location is good too.
Among all the hidden small basement cafes of Edinburgh thus one really stands out with nice spacious interiors with view over city centre. My waffles were superb and this is an easy recommendation from me. Thanks!

Me and my blogger buddy Cera came to Fredericks a few days ago for a meeting. Surprisingly for a Sunday, the cafe was packed with people.
The staff members here are super nice here. Smiley and bubbly 😊
The cafe itself is located in a nice place, very accessible and the stairs that lead up to the cafe brings a mysterious edge!
I went for Ceras good recommendation for the chocolate tea and chocolate fudge cake. Yes I know, choco over load! The tea was sooo refreshing and just perfect. They had a nice variety of vales to choose from as well but being a chocoholic, it made sense to choose the cake! Cera ordered waffles which looked amazing! I was glad to ser that everything on the menu was very affordable. No guilty feeling afterwards!
The size of the cafe is great as well since there is plenty of room to move around even though it was busy. I am quite a fidgety person especially when it comes to sitting on chairs for a long time. However at Fredericks the chairs are also big and comfortable to sit on 😊
Overall all, all ticks from me!
I usually come here for meetings as the place is quite big and the location is superb! They're also opened after work so if you want a quiet place to chill and have a conversation this is a good pick! Their coffees and teas are nice and the cakes are wonderful! I especially like their Orange Blossom Oolong and Japanese Cherry tea. I had their London Fog once and I liked it as well. The view is beautiful but the place gets very cold in the winter due to single glazed windows. Come here if you're not in a rush as the service can be quite slow when they're busy. But the staff is very nice and friendly.
Mouthwatering selection of cakes - special mention to the scone which is fluffy and absolutely monstrous. Their coffee is excellent with a discount on takeaway as well as an excellent loyalty card. Staff are extremely friendly and helpful!
Great place. Great coffee. Great staff!
If you're shopping in the high street, this place is the perfect safe haven.

Super cute, hidden and cosy! I was suggested to go here and so glad I did! Great for a meeting, quiet time for coffee and a book, must try vanilla latte is amazing!

Great place in the centre of town. Fredericks Coffee House is extremely new to the Edinburgh cafe scene and is a wonderful haven in which to refuel.
Located at on the first floor at 30 Frederick Street, it's a great place to escape a shopping expedition from nearby Princes and George Streets. There is ample light that flows in through the huge windows by the tables over looking Frederick Street, but you can also relax on one of the comfy seats or leather couch.
The owner, Alana Nouri has decorated this place beautifully but has also got the menu spot on.
Now open from 8am to 8pm Monday to Saturday and 10am-6pm Sunday, Fredericks is so much more than a coffee house, it serves wonderful meals starting with breakfast options such as scrambled eggs and toasted bagels with cream cheese. Alana has used the best coffee in Edinburgh - Artisan Roast and knows how to serve it. A range of teas and soft drinks is also available.
Breakfast is served until 11.30am when the menu then concentrates on lunch with choices of toasted paninis and pittas, freshly prepared salads and platters of breads, olives and dips to share.
You can also tuck into a bowl of home-made soup to warm yourself up, or just relax in the afternoon with coffee and cake (muffins and cupcakes available).
I had the warm chicken and bacon potato salad (£5.85) earlier this week and it hit the mark with both quantity and quality. There is a simple dessert menu, which is next on my hit list with carrot cake and banoffee pie in the offering.
I love that there's a great selection of teas such as Dikom Assam Second Flush and White Peony to choose from and the usual herbal infusions such as camomile and peppermint also make an appearance. Pots of tea (2 cups) are from £1.60 which make it good value for the city centre location.
Service is very friendly and of an acceptable level, but I think the owner has been overwhelmed how busy she has been in her first few days, so once the staffing levels are perfected, it will be a smoother experience.
I returned today to find the place almost full (25 or so seats) and tucked into a bowl of granola, honey and greek yoghurt for breakfast. Options like these make a refreshing change from the usual greasy rolls offered in cafes for when you want to be healthy. I've now eaten there twice in less than a week to enable this review, but will be going for the trilogy set this weekend - it's that good. I predict this place is going to become very popular, so head over there soon!
A lovely tiny place in the heart of the city center, between Rose street and Princess street, perfect location for a shopping break. The coffee is amazing (I'm italian;)) and I had a delicious chai latte with the biggest muffin of my life. Definitely a good place, lovely and peaceful atmosphere
Great atmosphere in this cosy cafe. Great hot chocolate and selection of coffees and tea too ;) I like it for catching up with friends and for their cakes
Beautiful white hot chocolate and the cream on top tasted amazing. Quick service, good prices and a lovely atmosphere! Will definitely be visiting again soon!
Perfect little place for a coffee meeting and catching up. As a bonny Edinburgh resident I walk past this place all the time! Good thing Zomato has the directions/location section. So cute and cosy inside! Such a beautiful view of Edinburgh! I love the decor compliments the Victorian building! Love it!
Perfect little spot right in the centre of town. It never feels too crowded, even when it is busy. The scones and cakes are great with a tea or coffee. The decor is very sophisticated yet still homely. A real favourite of mine.
Absolutely love this place. Such a lovely view of new town. Perfect rest from shopping sprees. What a nice place and the menu is lovely. They always have freshly baked cakes and the soup of the day was incredible and so was the fresh bread that came with it !!
On a weekend trip to Edinburgh we discovered this place for breakfast and would definitely recommend. Waffles, porridge and bagel were great and the coffee was comforting. Lovely spot with great service.
Visited September and November 2019. Loved the coffee and porridge! Good service and nice atmosphere.
Nice and cosy, good selection of hot drinks, overall a good choice if you are needing a place to sit for a coffee and cake or even just to take a break from the cold. It tends to get packed, which makes the service rather slow, I have had to wait to pay for the bill far too long (once at the bar after 15+min wait at the table).
Open late, great tea/coffee selection, tasty cakes and friendly atmosphere. Staff lovely and helpful. They also have beer and wine!
The perfect location, friendly staff :)
Lovely chai latte
Very cosy place with big windows. Nice view outside (including castle). The price is very friendly. I love the soup.
Good quality food, a bit expensive though. Nice atmosphere!
The bread with olives was just amazing.
Lovely place to work on ! I loved the coffee cake... the price is quite expensive but the atmosphere is so lovely
