What we love

  • •Owner-operated: Sam is both proprietor and barista
  • •Set inside the Victorian Glenogle swimming pool building
  • •Barista-made espresso drinks, not machine-vended coffee
  • •Loyal neighbourhood crowd; regulars know Sam by name

Mr Eion★★★ Purist

Edinburgh's most serious coffee operation is a small shop in Stockbridge. Mr Eion sources globally and roasts on-site.

Fortitude Coffee Stockbridge★★ Specialty

The tiered pour-over menu is the tell: different price points, different origins, staff who know the difference. The most considered cup in Stockbridge.

Artisan Roast Stockbridge★★ Specialty

Artisan Roast roasts in Edinburgh, and the Stockbridge shop is where you drink it properly. The filter programme is the draw.
