Greenwoods Edinburgh

Solo traveller here! I decided to try Greenwoods because it had been marketed to me as "the best brunch in Edinburgh" and I can definitely say that that wasn't a lie! The food was great, the staff was super friendly and the restaurant had a very welcoming feeling to it! I was eating alone and I didn't feel judged in any sort of way. I would definitely advise people to book before going, because it's a very busy restaurant! I will definitely be back to try something else on the menu!

I had a wonderful experience at this breakfast restaurant. The Scottish breakfast was absolutely delicious—everything was cooked perfectly and full of flavor. It was my first time trying haggis, and I was pleasantly surprised—it was the best I’ve ever had! The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, especially the lady with glasses who stood out for her warm and friendly service. Highly recommend if you're looking for a great start for the day.

Absolutely delicious food in a wonderful little shop. The banana bread stack was delicious! This place fills up so defintely reserve a table ahead of time.

The Shakshuka was amazing with a nice kick of spice, and I also recommend the Balmoral Chicken Sandwich, it was really good! The only downside is that the place is quite small, and we had to wait about 45 minutes in line. Still, the food made it worth the wait.

Very nice vintage place with a Scottish vibe inside. Traditional Scottish Breakfast was amazing. We also tried some pancakes. Personnel was polite and made sure we are feeling okay. There is a children's version of the pancakes with maple sirup, which were also good. They have some nice coffee served in one of the most beautiful coffee cups I've seen (which they also sell by the way ;) ). I would recommend this place and would visit again if I get the chance.

Absolutely wonderful breakfast, we didn't book for a table of 4 and they managed to squeeze us in, but I'd definitely recommend booking as we just got really lucky! The whole place was packed out. The tables are quite close together, but it didn't affect our meal or the atmosphere. Our food was spectacular, the pancakes were light and fluffy, and the home made hash browns were perfect. The mushroom and goats cheese on toast was sublime, with the right amount of cheese to add a softness to the bread. All of the staff were clearly working extremely hard, and the bill does include a service charge, but we all thought this was well deserved and well earned. Everything came out very quickly, and we didn't spend forever waiting. We'll be back next time we're in Edinburgh, but with a reservation next time!!

What a lovely little place this is! We booked via opentable a few hours before we visited for breakfast, so glad we did as it’s a small venue and very popular, we seen lots being turned away who hadn’t booked, this was midweek so we hadn’t expected it to as busy. We ordered 2 coffees which were sublime, so smooth 10/10. For food we had 1 full Scottish which was again very very good, nothing tasted greasy, you could taste it was excellent produce and went down a treat. Other had eggs florentine on GF toast with added feta... again so so fresh and tasted incredible. Staff were very very friendly, non intrusive and happy to answer menu questions and make recommendations. If you’re looking for a great breakfast spot in Edinburgh this is a great place to try. We will definitely be back when in the area.

Came in looking for a full Scottish breakfast, left stuffed with a belly full of flavor! We didn’t order the full breakfast, too much food. We ordered the breakfast stack instead & still quite a lot of food! The flavors were amazing, arguably one of the best breakfasts we’ve ever had! Pistachio latte & hot chocolate were also fantastic!
