An espresso-based menu in Leith that takes the coffee seriously, which puts it ahead of most of the neighbourhood. Head here when the cup is the reason, not the backdrop.

Leith's proper coffee shop, built around selling its own beans.

Little Havana Coffee Store★★ Specialty

A bean shop where buying starts with a smell and the origins range from Yemen to Java. The owner knows every one well enough to explain swiss-water decaf extraction unprompted.

Williams & Johnson Coffee Co.★★ Specialty

Williams & Johnson roast on-site and pour from the same counter. The coffee keeps people coming back despite the service, which tells you enough.

Artisan Roast Leith Walk★★ Specialty

Artisan Roast's Leith Walk shop: the espresso is precise, and the regulars who've covered Edinburgh's specialty scene still come back.
