Might have to try and get home for a weekend soon. Will be seen hanging around poncy cafes and bars drinking overpriced beverages made by 'craftsmen' and sneering at tourists.
I nearly bought a flat on Grindlay St. You really are in the business district. Not normally an area I would choose to breakfast in. For non-poncy breakfasts I normally recommend City Café, or somewhere around Leith Walk or New Town, but they are all a bit of a walk from you. If you are around the Grindlay St are this evening later Bread Meats Bread is great for burgers and the Hanging Bat is a fine boozer.
Seconding the City Café. I wouldn't like it in any other city but in Edinburgh it is a grateful refuge from the tartan-shortbread-fudge-industrial-complex.

No but if it were, they would boss the 'weegies. Even Surrey would struggle tbh.
World-class twee-mongers, those Edinbughers.

Dux they'd have to set up a scheemie exclusion zone around the old town to ensure victory.
Shame I didn't see Sumo's post earlier as I could easily found him a non artisanal fry up.
