About

This small cafe sits inside the Water of Leith Visitor Centre, where free river-history displays and an interactive water-play area make it a handy stop on the walkway with kids. The food selection is limited, but the centre lists vegan cakes and snacks, and visitors can have hot drinks with oat milk; outdoor tables look toward the bridge and path.
