This Dalry Road site is Edinburgh's working roastery first, cafe second. The beans in every drink were roasted here, and the operation supplies other specialty venues across the city too.

The Dalry Road roastery supplying Edinburgh's specialty venues happens to have a cafe.

Throat Punch Coffee Company★★ Specialty

One of the few lever machines in Edinburgh, run by a barista who can explain exactly what it does to extraction. Mexican single-origin on espresso. Filter runs alongside.

BEATNIK★★ Specialty

Pour-overs arrive with palate water, and the staff can account for everything in the cup. A West End detour worth making.

LOWDOWN★★ Specialty

Edinburgh's coffee-literate regulars point visitors here for the rotating pour-overs. Staff who know every bean on the bar seal it.
