A great addition to the area. The staff are friendly & the food is delicious I've just had some wonderful vegan minestrone soup & a kale, sesame & barley salad 😋 Looking forward to some possible evening plans to come?
Will defo be back!! It’s a lovely place - coffee is brilliant and the sandwiches are the best!!!
Wandered in whilst waiting for the next bus, was greeted with a smile from the staff and served an excellent double espresso.
Coffee and cakes are amazing! a must visit if your in the area.
Amazing sandwiches and the best coffee in Edinburgh
Great place, brilliant coffee and lunch. defo be back soon ��
Great addition to the area. Food was yummy.
Delicious scones with jam and a yummy hot chocolate :)
Cafe is very nicely decorated and has a lot of nice natural light coming in. Food is 10/10, staff is friendly :)) will love to come back again!
Fantastic small atmosphere, great coffee and delicious menu with American bacon 😍
One of the best breakfast experience un my life.
The sourdough bread and the Bueno cookies literally impossible to describe how perfect they were.
Highly recommended!
Very cute little place. Coffee is good, service is great and it’s an easy place to go for a quick meal.
Baba Rista is the nicest food place in the area providing sit-in seating (indoor and outdoor) as well as take-away. The amount of effort made to transform the building is equally matched by the amount of effort they put into their menu. This creates a much more convenient place for me to do some work whilst enjoying good coffee than was available before. The staff are friendly and make an effort with customers which makes the whole experience superb. A very unique, modern addition to the area.
Awesome!!
Such a friendly, welcoming, little place offering so much more than just coffee and service with a smile. Delicious vegan homemade soup, the most amazing brioche buns which are a meal in themselves, or delicious freshly prepared to order with your favourite breakfast/lunch fillings. Tiny place yet surprisingly spacious feeling if you have time to sit upstairs, enjoy the perfect cafe music and superfast wifi while you watch the customers below grabbing and going.
Ordered a smoothie and latte at the front counter and they brought it upstairs for us while we did some planning. Small comfortable seating upstairs and the food looked great. Lots of options and always a nice spot to stop in for something hot or cold!
Absolutely outstanding service today from the woman who took our order.
We said we'd share a hot chocolate and pastry, and not only did she cut the pastry in half but she went well above and beyond, separating the hot chocolate into two small cups, made perfectly with their own whipped cream and marshmallows! Such a kind touch when they were actually reasonably busy!
Then the salted caramel hot chocolate was absolutely delicious and the perfect temperature. I'll definitely try a coffee there next time especially if I see her serving again.
It has a nice atmosphere upstairs too. I think the pastry was only "ok" and a little pricy but it was nice enough and the cafe is easily worth recommending. Only sorry we didn't have any change for a tip this time - will make it up next time!
Thanks again, kind hot chocolate lady.
Melt in your mouth roll, it had a buttery taste and airy, light texture to the bread, was amazing. Can choose any combination of brekky roll items and a coffee for £5. Both coffee and roll were delicious.
The best coffee in Edinburgh and Maia is the friendliest, most warm person I have met in ages! They love our dog and she eagerly awaits her morning walks to come in and have a treat (to the point where she waits outside the door on Sundays) 😅 Food is also great, I can't think of anything I tried that I didn't like. ❤️
