Reviews of La Barantine Victoria

A. A. M.

A nice spot to grab a quick bite to eat, I got the smoke salmon croissant which was really good. Their pastries which look very good from the windows for me was a bit of disappointment, I only got a vanilla eclair and it was not good. Their macaroons were also crunchy though they should be soft.

R. H.

Macaroons and cakes are amazing!

E. J.

Splendid little bakery with coffee, tea etc. And french delights. You can order in french and english. The Croissant are really tasty as well as the Coffees.one of my favourite Places to have a nice relaxed breakfeast, sit Outside and See the victoria street filling up.

E. 6.

It was good experience. Everything is tasty and you feel welcome from the first moment you enter here. It is rather tiny place hence you have often wait for a table to be freed. But it is worth waiting, the food is delicious and always freshly baked.

A. E.

Great place to dine in! Everything was awesome- pastries, sandwiches, even the soup with bread and butter made a great duet of taste. Delicious.

J. T.

Great coffee. Friendly staff. Pastries are tasty as well. Price a little bit on the high side but definitely worth it

D. P.

Great place, good service. Lovely crispy bread roll sandwiches. Good tea. Great cakes. Good service.

J. B.

Sexy French style cafe with an excellent selection of pastries and coffees. Professional yet distant service, not the typical friendly and warm service at most of the eating/drinking places in Edinburgh.

J. W.

A little bit cramped inside, but the staff were friendly and the pastry was delicious. The hot chocolate was a little on the milky side. Prices were reasonable. I’d go back.

S. B.

Popped in for a rest and a cake, was not disappointed!

擠.

The staff is really nice

S. L.

This place is outstanding. Best bakery / coffee shop I found on my trip and this includes London, Paris, and Amsterdam. I had a latte that was the best I ever had. We had croissants, plus sweet treats that were top notch. Everyone working there was working super hard. If I lived in Edinburgh I would be there every day

A. R.

Fabulous cakes. Lemon tart was divine. Quaint little booth great place to chill and chat.

A. D.

Great little cafe. Very good sandwiches.

J. G.

My breakfast place 2 mornings in a row so that says it all. A flat white & croissant (pain au chocolat day 2!) Intimate cafe with nice decor and friendly atmosphere.

E. D.

Just loved it. Great coffe, amazing food. Friendly staff and the patisseries are just so so good. It's like being back in France

S. V.

Good coffee, freshly baked pastries, and friendly staff.

I can't emphasis enough how good are the cakes and brownies in here! Probably the best brownie I ever had.

V. P.

Lovely pub with open airy feeling and yet the cosiness of your UK pub. Great menu and drinks selection.

S. W.

Friendly staff! Loved the fruit tart and flat white I had. Cosy atmosphere, defo a nice place to chill at on a lovely afternoon.

T. S.

Beautiful coffee, bread, sandwiches and desserts. Cant fault this place. In the 24hrs of staying in Edinburgh I have visited this cafe 3 times.

C. M.

Best food I had in Edinburgh all trip. The staff was so nice, the latte was great, and the quiche and salad were wonderful!

S. A.

Had the Plat du Jour Quiche and a gingerbread latte, and it was exactly what I wanted. The coffee despite it looks was somehow not too sweet, although still a delicious treat, and the quiche was wonderful. They also have an array of French pastries that looked delightful.

V. T.

Very nice French bakery in Edinburg. We had some pastries, and came back.

The almond croissant is super tasty, cute place

Really enjoyed my experience. Got served by an extremely good looking Latvian Girl. Will be back.

M. R.

I had a vanilla eclair which was okay. Also tried a couple of macarons and wasn't overly impressed, the shell was a bit too crunchy. But the Tarte au Citron, I don't even like lemon flavouring in foods but I've fallen in love with it. I'd go back just for one of those.

B. M.

Lovely patisserie and cafe. Fresh croissants and coffee for breakfast. Yummy.

I love local places and this is one of the best. They really care about their products and it shows. It's dog friendly and everything is lovingly homemade. Their breads and pastries are amazing - I'm loving their pain suisse right now!

L. R.

One of the best places to grab a coffee and pastry close to the Castle. A brilliant classic French bakery with great coffee. Definitely recommend the pain Suisse. They have a selection of beautiful classic cakes in the window too! Very limited seats inside but if you’ve got some time definitely give this place a go.

This coffee shop is a little gem. I stopped here to warm up a little bit. Ordered a latte and some cakes. It was a pleasant surprise. The coffee was rich and the cakes absolutely delicious.

A good random choice that we decided along Victoria Street! Had one of the best bacon & cheese quiche ever, piping hot! The tarts & pastries there looks amazing too. We had a citron tart which is a little sweet but tasted great. A must-mention are their flat whites - frothy and strong

Yummy dessert.Great cafe

Lovely French cafe bar.

B. C.

I think the worst thing I can say about this place is that they opened at 8:06 rather than 8am. The shop offers a nice selection of pastries, ornate cakes and slices, drinks, and sandwiches. As we were there for breakfast, we shared a raisin swirl, lemon meringue, and slice of apple tart, along with coffee and a refreshing peppermint tea. Each food was presented on small slate plates. Gorgeous and delicious.

D. P.

Best coffee i had in UK.

A.

Love the drinks and dessert!

J. B.

This cafe feels authentically french. The food tastes like it was made in France, perhaps due to their French baking team. If you have a chance to pop in, try their Half Baguette and Croissant breakfast- it's quite large but you will not regret it. A star deducted however because i was not given a seat, merely a flat surface that was little more than a windowsill, no padding or comfort.

A. G.

Good pastry.

Thank you for the Snack and coffee and water!

Tasty pastries, delicious hot chocolate, reasonable prices, this charming little cafe has got it all. It was a great decision to stop by for a quote bite

R. B.

What a nice little French cafe/bakery this is. Don't feel like having beans for breakfast? But in a tasty sandwich or croissant. In combination with a nice cup of coffee or tea. There are a few small seating areas inside. But take-away is also possible. Absolute tip. It was busy when we visited, but it went well.

M. D.

Being here twice as it's one of the Best places for coffee and pastries! Best option for Italian breakfast. Bread is delicious too! Absolutely a gem if you want to enjoy a good cappuccino and good pasta for breakfast! I had the cappuccino and the vanilla flan, which were more than excellent! The bread is delicious and crunchy I recommend going there in the morning!

G. B.

Finally a good coffee. I'll be back to try the specialties because they looked really good. Fast service and friendly staff. Central location. Advised

E. M.

If you prefer a sweet breakfast this place will not disappoint you Very good cappuccino, even soy. We tried croissants, pain au chocolate and brownies and found them truly superb Very nice and well-kept place

N. C.

Friendly staff and quick service. Ordered the lemon meringue tart and vanilla flan. The flan was a bit hard for me but this was my first time eating flan so I'm not sure how it should be. The lemon meringue tart was amazing and I only wish I lived in Edinburgh just to come back here for this

Breakfast with delicious bread I went in for breakfast right after they opened on Monday. It seems to be a popular shop with people visiting all the time. We have croissants and baguettes, as well as sandwiches, quiches, pastries, and cakes. The quiche was heated and served with a salad. The baguette and croissant are also very delicious and recommended. It only takes one or two staff members, so it's a good idea to leave plenty of time.

(Translated) I found this place by accident and I'm really happy with it. The iced caramel coffee, a special drink, does not have ice, but the caramel flavor is thick and heavy, so it has been fully charged with sugar. Most of all, the staff is so friendly, I will definitely come back next time I come to Edinburgh. The tart and apple pie were also delicious. (Original) 우연히 발견해서 들어간 곳인데 정말 만족스럽습니다. 스페셜 드링크인 아이스 카라멜 커피는 얼음이 없지만 카라멜 맛이 진하고 묵직해서 당 충전 제대로 하고 왔습니다. 무엇보다도 직원분이 너무나도 친절하셔서 다음에 에든버러 또 오게 된다면 재방문할 예정입니다. 타르트와 애플파이도 맛있었어요.

The mocha was delicious and the lemon tart was good as well. Giving it a 3 ⭐️ because the macarons were stale and didn’t taste very good as well as the eclair.

(Translated) A French friend recommended me to be the most delicious bakery / cake shop in Edinburgh! Definitely more delicious than other bakery, and there are few types of cakes, but all were delicious. In-store dining is also possible.

(Translated) Small but very nice French patisserie. The products are all fresh and baked daily (so much so that if you spend the afternoon they might have finished very sweet). The brioches are good and the selection is wide. I also tried a lemon meringue cake which unfortunately did not live up to expectations. (Original) Pasticceria francese piccola ma molto carina. I prodotti sono tutti freschi e sfornano giornalmente (tant’è che se passate al pomeriggio potrebbero aver finito molto dolci). Buone le brioches e ampia la selezione.

(Translated) I went to a nearby cafe and found the perfect gem. The staff was friendly and the interior was cozy and nice. I didn't drink coffee, so I ordered hot chocolate, bread, and tarts, but really...wow The chocolate bread was crispy on the outside and sweet on the inside. The freshness and sweetness of the lemon tart touched my tongue. The price is also very reasonable (you know the price of the UK) I ate like that and it didn't even cost 15 pounds. I recommend it! (Original) 가까운 카페 찾아 들어갔는데 완전 보석을 발견했습니다. 직원분 친절하시고 인테리어도 아늑하고 좋았어요. 커피를 안 마셔서 핫초코랑 빵, 타르트 시켰는데 진짜....wow 초코빵은 겉에는 바삭하고 안에는 달달했구요 레몬타르트는 상큼함과 달콤함이 저의 혀를 감동시켰습니다 가격도 되게 합리적이에요(영국 물가 아시져) 저렇게 먹어서 15파운드도 안 나왔습니다 추천해용!

(Translated) Small corner in Grassmarket where you can taste a good coffee, cappuccino, etc. (Edinburgh prices). If it were something bigger it would be appreciated but it would also lose charm.

This was a wonderful little mid day stop. Our family had the pain aux raisins, the lavender latte, croissants, a vanilla latte and the 12 pack of beautiful macarons. Everything was wonderfully delicious except for the macarons. That just might be a preference as I am not a macaron expert. But, no one in my family cared for them. This mainly a take away place with only a couple of seats. But, it is lovely and quaint. I would definitely stop there again... and we actually did visit there twice. ;)

Bedauerlicherweise während unseres Besuches in Edinburgh das einzige Cafe, dessen Kaffee auch tatsächlich genießbar war. Wir trinken Kaffee pur, ohne Milch, ohne Zucker und hier war er echt sehr gut. Noch dazu ein wunderschönes Angebot an Brötchen und an Mehlspeisen. Einfach empfehlenswert 😇. (Translated) Unfortunately, during our visit to Edinburgh the only cafe whose coffee was actually enjoyable. We drink coffee pure, without milk, without sugar and here it was really very good.

(Translated) A place where I was very impressed with the croissants that I tasted here for the first time when I came to Edinburgh three years ago. I came back and listened to it again. I was also able to taste delicious French bread. The store isn't that big, but it's always crowded. If you are tired of stuffy English bread and want to eat delicious bread, make sure to stop by this place. The set menu that sells delicious flat white and croissant together is also good. However, the almond croissant can be sold out if you go late, so you can eat it before lunch. (Original) 3년전 에든버러에 왔을때 처음 알게 된 이곳에서 맛보았던 아모든 크로아상이 매우 인상 깊었던 곳. 이번에 다시 돌아와서 또 들려보았다. 역시 맛있는 프랑스 빵을 맛볼 수 있었다. 가게가 그리 크진 않지만 늘 붐벼있는 곳. 텁텁한 영국식 빵이 지겹고 맛있는 빵이 먹고 싶다면 이곳에 꼭 들려보세길~ 맛있는 플렛화이트와 크로아상을 함께 묶어 파는 세트메뉴도 괜찮음. 하지만 아몬드 크로아상은 늦게 가면 다 팔려서 못먹을 수 있으니 점심전에 가야 먹을 수 있음.

Clearly the go to place in this area. Very nice. Staff are extremely friendly and accommodating. Best Pain au Raisin ive ever had. Amazing. Very fairly priced too. Everyone was clearly enjoying it and your products all looked amazing.

Lovely cafe with the best hot chocolate! The staff are always helpful and friendly.

O. H.

Very nice Latte. Quite strong. Strawberry tart was superb. Quick service too.

A. B.

The selection of sweets at the patisserie was good, we really enjoyed the croissants. The macarons tasted a bit too sugary on the day we visited. There isn't much space to sit inside the shop, so get there early if you want to eat in.

J. T.

A little piece of France. This Cafe has a really special vibe. The staff is kind and friendly. The cakes and coffee both are amazing!

L. G. (. G.

Very cosy in here, popular on our visit, the prices are a little above average but so is the quality. The tea was one of the best tasting teas I've ever had, a nice strong full bodied breakfast tea and the tarte citron was delightful, a buttery sweet base, creamy and tart filling topped with a soft marshmallow come meringue textured affair, it was so delicious

B. L.

Lovely little place. Coffee was good and the croissant was tasty.

H. C.

Perfect place to enjoy an afternoon at Edinburgh.. Do have the outdoor seat to enjoy a cup of coffee

K. L.

Lovely spot for delicious pastry and coffee. Friendly staff too.

A. M.

I was expecting a lot from it, living in the North of Scotland and being home sick (I am French)... I only had time to buy food to take away. The place is very small, busy therefore crammed. I was looking forward to a simple baguette sandwich: ham, butter and cornichons... sadly I was rather disappointed by the bread itself which wasn't fresh. Luckily the raspberry flan was absolutely delicious. The macarons were nice but not the best. I am a bit sadden to say but I doubt I will go back when next in Edinburgh.

A. M.

Really good coffee, delicious hot chocolate and the vanilla and raspberry and then original vanilla were both absolutely amazing, perfect for a break from exploring the city. Also had a almond croissant and a almond pan au chocolat which were again scrumptious even the morning after!

R. H.

Super friendly staff, attentive and welcoming! Nice little cafe environment, very relaxed, some lovely art works on the wall available to purchase. Great choice on drinks, breakfast pastries/lunch bits/treats etc. The best hot chocolate in Edinburgh I'd even go as far to say! Made our morning walk all the better on the Sunday! Thanks!

C. W.

Staff were lovely and it’s a cute looking patisserie, but the pear tart was very average ☹️

nice sandwich and coffee. the pastries look amazing too.

The staff were Very friendly staff, the place was very cool, the coffee was pretty good and the pistachio custard cake was very good as well

S. S.

Oh my goodness! Such wonderful treats. Great for a stop gap while sightseeing in central Edinburgh. The cakes are brilliant.

L. T.

Sandwiches are so small but they almost cost £6 and the bread was quite hard!! They do worth the price. Macarons and pastries are good.

D. H.

Nice little place for having a break. Tasty tea and cake at usual Edinburgh price range, very friendly staff.

R. V.

Delicious coffee and patisserie! Also, one of the best salmon sandwiches I ever had. Go with the stomach empty and go nuts!

R. W.

Fantastic range of pasties, cakes & fancies together with good coffee and service. Not the cheapest but you get what you pay for. Like Paris in Edinburgh!

V. C.

Quick and friendly service, the baked goods on offer were delicious especially the croissant stuffed full with smoked salmon, cream cheese and salad.

M. J.

We had a wonderful breakfast at this small but cute coffee shop! Tasty quiche lorraine and salmon sandwich. The tarts are delicious! Special thanks to Dylan for the excellent service. Definitely gonna revisit when in Edinburgh x

G. S.

Had a lovely eclair and cappuccino in this cozy little place!

C. B.

Make time for La Barantine, it is worth every delicious moment. Phenomenal produce and lovely staff As an authentic French bakery they use gelatin in some items. So vegetarians, just double-check with staff for what you can enjoy

Best Mokka Coffee and french pastires in city centre :)

Au top! Very good French pastries and cosy atmosphere ☕🍰

A. C.

Nice looking patisserie on a lovely street. Quite popular with tourists. The cakes in the window look amazing. I had a small tart (pear), the filling was delicious but the soggy pastry was very disappointing- it was obviously not fresh. Good selection of tea and coffee.

A very cute cafe with lovely staff. I had an éclair and some of their macarons. The macarons stole the show and I had to stop myself from buying 100!

Delicious pastries on a sunny August morning hit the spot and would recommend the coffee too! There was one barista working hard to keep up with many orders but despite warnings about a longer than usual wait, we were pleasantly surprised that they arrived as soon as they did.

A. D.

Really cute cafe, with yummy pastries and drinks. I took off one star because the barista working seemed very irritated with every little thing, and was also moving slower. We ordered drinks to go, and she gave us our cups with no lids. When I started talking asking for lids she walked away and said nothing. I then had to wait for the cashier to get them for us, and the barista looked annoyed with her as well. The inside is very cozy, but there isn't much room to stand or move, so it was difficult with our kids even placing a takeaway order. They didn't allow us to wait at a table for our items, which is understandable for other guests needing a table, and instead moved us in front of the door so we were in the way of every single person trying to get in and out, for closer to 10 minutes, for two small lattes. It is a bit expensive, compared to cafes selling the same items.

J. T.

Lovely little cafe with dome great pastries. The Hot Chocolate and Mocha was very nice and creamy. We also bought 12 macarons as a gift which we ending up eating as they were so tasty!

S. L.

I love this little cafe. Situated on Victoria street, just of Grass Market. I make a bee line to this special little place everytime i visit Edinburgh no matter how far away i am from it 😋 It is small but i always delighted to get a seat even though its busy. The staff are friendly and happy in their work and that says a lot about the place. The coffee is excellent and all the patisserie are wonderful. 🧡 They also serve delicious lunches which i have sampled on occassion and so much to choose from.

M. M.

Authentic French bakery run by expats who wanted to recreate their love in Edinburgh. Wonderful coffee and baked goods served in a small storefront. The Macaroons were light and airy as they should be. This is a gem amongst the area that shouldn't be missed.

O. W.

Best bread in Edinburgh in my opinion! The croissants are flakey, buttery and delicious. The tea is what you'd expect. I don't drink coffee, but my espresso drinking friends have said that you either love or hate the brand they are using. The Victoria location is quite small, better suited for a small group [I'd say at 3 it starts too get cramped at a table] or buying to go. If you're a larger group and want to sit in, I'd go to the other location. All in all though, this place never disappoints. [Note: you have to go down 2 steps to get inside, so it is not accessible for wheelchairs. They do have some tables outside in the summer, so perhaps that would be an option]

Y. C. A.

Cozi place with great atmosphere and great service. Can be a bit small and crowded. Really amazing coffee and hot chocolate, some of the best we drank in Edinburgh. The desserts looked great, but their taste was only OK though...

J. S.

Love this place! The most devine fruit tart ever! A "must visit" during your stay in Edinburgh. It has almost become a tradition for us to have an " Oink" roll ( a few doors up the street) followed by a delicious patisserie for afters from La Barantine. 😍

I. G.

Great little cafe with pastries, sandwiches and soups.

k. l.

Best espresso in 3 weeks... By far

s. c.

You have to have their macarons! We buy ours there every year for Christmas as well as a freshly made preordered Yule log. It’s a wee bit pricey but it’s worth every penny in taste. I strongly recommend.

P. W.

Authentic French Patisserie. The breakfast choice of so many different patisseries together with eggs and great coffee hits the spot. Also greatly enjoyed their homemade soup and Croque Monsieur from the lunch menu. Good seating and friendly atmosphere. Thoroughly recommended!

W. L. S.

A nice and cosy cafe serving nice French pastries. We had a pain aux raisin and tarte aux poires, which were delicious.

E. Y.

Small French cafe. Friendly service. Lovely patisserie.

A. M.

Mon Dieu, I'm in heaven. If you're just passing by don't miss your chance to try the pistachio or salted caramel macaroons. If you're staying order one of their amazing teas as well (you'll get a whole pot) or go directly for one of their fantastic combo deals (a drink, sandwich and desert for around 8£). Also their sandwiches are divine. Actually everything we tried is delicious. Great place.

D. B.

If I was ever close to crying from happiness, it was at this gorgeous place. Every single thing I tried was exceptional: the sandwiches, their teas and those macaroons! I got almost every single one of the flavours and they were all heavenly, no exceptions. I will come back EVERY SINGLE TIME I happen to be in Edinburgh :)

A. S. (.

very lovely cafe to have breakfast or lunch! The croissant and baguette was really good!! And not to forget the waitress was very very friendly and you could see that she loves doing what she does! :) overall recommendation!

D. C.

A cool French cafe, great for a quick coffee or pastry.

M. H.

I really enjoy the pastries here but I was disappointed in their pear tart one time. I was a bit skeptical when I saw the edges were a bit dark but when I tasted it, it was nothing but bitter. I turned it over and the bottom was completely black. I hope it was just a one time thing cuz it was not worth paying for.

Place with soul, delicious desserts, very good coffee and lovely staff. And nothing is overly sweet like is the norm for most places in Edinburgh

D. R.

So lovely.. Fresh food, sublime coffee, friendly staff, warm cozy atmosphere. We loved it!

T. K.

Excellent food! Warm place to have breakfast Lots of options

J. N.

Solid breakfast with a large cappuccino and bread jam and butter. The cappuccino had movie powder on top which was a little different. The bread was fine but would love if they had bread choices. Still very solid and tasty at a reasonable price of 6.2 of pounds.

C. C.

I don’t know if we were maybe just unlucky but we were slightly disappointed by our afternoon visit here. The shop was quite busy but we managed to get a table outside. I am not a fan how the table a chairs are situated outside. There is a set of table and chairs that right in front of the window that displays the eclairs and other similar pastries. So if there are people sitting at this table then you have to look over them to see the cakes which isn’t the most comfortable for both the person choosing the cakes and the people sitting at the table. I think they either need to display the pastries inside or move the table and chairs. I didn’t want to feel awkward so I didn’t bother looking as there was people sitting at that outside table so I just chose the pain au chocolat from inside and a hot chocolate. My wife got an eclair and we also picked 6 macarons. The hot chocolate was really nice and not too sweet. My pain au chocolat was a disappointment. It didn’t appear any different from the ones you buy from the supermarket. It was soft all round and no flakiness on the outside and not much chocolate on the inside. My wife’s eclair was fine but nothing special. The macarons on the other hand were very good. Overall, I expected a lot better.

M. H.

Fantastic little cafe serving tasty French sandwiches and pastries

A. P.

The best French patisserie (croissants and pain au raisin and au Chocolat are amazing) and bakery ever. The place is very nice and cosy. Staff is friendly and smiling and also coffee is very good!!!! If you live in edinbourgh or you just go to visit the city allow yourself to go there at least once

Y. “.

Loving the pastries and baguettes. I’d especially recommend eclairs which are my favourite in Edinburgh and would eat them anytime 🥰

L. V.

Authentic taste of Paris; good Pain au Chocolat and chocolate Pâtisserie (rich but not too sweet). Staff all Francophone, the place is cute and the atmosphere is cozy. Only thing that's not French is the coffee - better than most places in Paris.

C. O.

Cosy coffee shop with delicious treats! Had croissants and cake and everything was perfect. Would highly recommend if you want to step in out of the cold and relax!

A. K.

This is the French pastry shop you've been looking for. A traditional selection of perfectly made pastries, solid espressos and cappuccinos, all served to you by a very friendly staff! Why not stop by every day?

A. A. R.

It's a small place for eating inside but we've have been twice and the place is lovely and cosy. The food is amazing and the coffees too. The people is really helpful and sweet.

Rich flavoured decaf flat white. Accompanied by fine examples of classic pastries. A great place for those that appreciate the better things in life and have the time to relax and enjoy them.

N. R.

Amazing coffee and freaking fantastic cakes/pastries. I had a strawberry and pistachio pastry which actual names escapes me but this little piece of heaven turned me into the cheshire cat.

T. V.

Cozy place with good food and nice People. Just one dairy free/vegan option but a very nice one! Good place to have lunch in your visit to Edinburgh.

J. T.

Cozy, French-themed café. A tad cramped inside and very busy, but coffee was good. Good food available, and appears to be prepared quickly given the small number of staff. Prices are what you would expect for an Edinburgh tourist hotspot. Pictured: Gingerbread Oat Milk Latte
