A. R.

Wonderful food. Vegetarian and Vegan options only. Lovey Falafel wrap and Kunafa. The food is prepared in-house everyday and fresh. Falafels are baked and not deep fried unlike other shops. Its an healthy option too. Would definitely visit every week without fail to taste the yummy Baklavas and Kunafa

God I just love baklavas. Thankfully I don’t live near this place or I’d be here all the time. Very friendly and welcoming staff. Good selection of baklavas and other Middle Eastern treats. Very tasty indeed and they are all fresh. Reasonable price as well considering location.

A. S.

Had baklava. Diff types . 7£ for 7 piece. Much cheaper, if one goes with per kg. 18£/kg. There r other options too try those too.

Went in today on a whim, had a wonderful conversation with the gentleman who was working. He answered my many questions with great answers and introduced me to turkish coffee (which came in an edible cup!) and I got a selection of sweets (the chocolate baklava and the clotted cream and cheese one are my favourite) and a savoury flatbread. I will definitely be back!! Thank you!!

Q. Z.

Chocolate baklava is a little too sweet for me, but the original one is great! Owner says it’s his favourite ;) It was also really nice of him to give me a bite for taste. Update. Second time favourites are 1)with cheese 2)with milky pudding ish filling.

R. 2.

I enjoyed a wonderful brunch here on my last day in Edinburgh. I recommend the Turkish coffee with just a dash of sugar and the baklava for a lovely bitter-sweet combo.

M. B.

Come experience Mediterranean hospitality & tastes in the heart of Edinburgh! You won’t be disappointed!

K. M.

Loved the Turkish coffee and baklavas! Our favourite were the pistachio baklavas, but they were all so tasty and at a very reasonable price.

P. J.

Delicious vegan baklava and splendid coffee. I'm looking forward to trying the breakfast options in the future!

K. W.

Delicious coffee, service with a smile, tasty Turkish coffee & baklava - a perfect stop-off when walking into Edinburgh from the South Side.

K. J.

Oh god this place has good baklava. In fact it is the only place to have baklava in the city, I haven't been able to actually find it anywhere else. Operator Talas is a gem, and they have a baker from Syria do their pastries. All fresh, including their phyllo (which is a ridiculous amount of work for you non-bakers). Access is good, just nip over from the Meadows.

Best Falafal I've ever eaten. Exceptional wholesome baked goods using lovely light dough. Full flavoured fillings to savoury goods like, spinach, cheese or minced lamb. Exceptional rustic Syrian food perfect for when you are on the move. We enjoyed our Baklava but you can tell I love my savouries. Sorry no pictures, I eat my food.

M. R. S.

Turkish coffee. If you are in Edinburgh you have to taste the coffee here. It's excellent, way better than Costa and Starbucks.

E. M.

This is one of my favourite spots in Edinburgh. The baklava is absolutely delicious. The owner is such a lovely man, always so welcoming and friendly.

P. B.

Lovely cafe serving Syrian "comfort food." You can even get excellent decaf coffee with non dairy milk. Best falafal I ever tasted. I don't photograph food I eat it.

Our favourite breakfast spot. The owner is delightful and very friendly and the selection of baklava and sweets are outstanding (and all made fresh in house). There are also homemade savoury snacks that make a great breakfast or lunch. Perfect for a Turkish coffee or tea as well. Highly highly recommended!

A. A.

The best baklava in town! I reccomend buying a bigger box than you think you'll need - everyone will want some! They also do nice wraps here, and delicious specialty coffee.

-. S.

Like this one, don't know the exact name. It's got an omelet and a little chilli and a few other ingredients.

M. S.

The owner is a really nice person! There was a wide selection of pastries, I chose 5 different ones and they all tasted amazingly good, I think it was at the perfect point of sweetness, as you could also taste the nuts flavour. Also, I have noticed that Google Maps leads you two or three shops next to the Sweety house, so keep walking and you will see it :P

R. v.

One of my favourite places in town. A gem of an owner who is always up for a friendly chat. The baklava never disappoints! Highly recommend trying a variety of his pastries.

Picked up some baklava by chance when passing on a Saturday afternoon. Super fresh and very tasty baklava, some of the best I've had in a very long time. Owner was very friendly and welcoming, and was happy for our dog to join us in the cafe.

Amazing sweets and the loveliest owner ever! I’ll be back.

A pearl in Edinburgh. Delicious pastries and a great customer service. I've been here twice, with friends and family as well and we all love it. I like baklavas in general, but I've discovered many new little treats here. Definitely worth visiting over and over.

K. S.

Not only delicious baklava but also freshly made savoury pastries. Wonderful coffee and lovely staff - a real gem!
