A Dean Village kitchen-cafe running Dear Green beans from Glasgow and Mossgiel Farm organic milk from Ayrshire. The room mostly comes for the food; the flat white earns its keep.

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.
