The Edinburgh Larder is widely praised for its high-quality Scottish breakfast and brunch, with many reviewers calling it the best in the city. The menu's focus on local farmers and seasonal produce is a major draw, particularly signature items like the kilted eggs and artisan coffee. While the food quality and presentation are consistently lauded, some guests have noted that the cafe's small size makes it feel crowded. Service experiences vary, with some finding the staff incredibly friendly while others report long wait times and a lack of attentiveness. Prices are considered slightly higher than average, often including a service charge, which some diners find steep for the portion sizes. Despite these minor critiques, the cozy atmosphere and central location near the Cathedral make it a highly recommended stop.
