Impressive offer

So far, I have been there twice (2020 and 2024) and still cannot decide on a rating. The menu is impressive, and the ambience is nice, but the food is not perfect. On my last visit, the hollandaise on my benedict was definitely too salty, and my biscoff flat white had too much syrup and, therefore, tasted bitter. Need to come back to try their cakes, too.
I recommend visiting on a weekday, as weekends are pretty crowded.

Pros: All vegan

Cons: A bit of a walk from the city centre

Very tasty breakfast

We ordered Paula’s special toast and the Scottish benny.
The Benny was a nice size for a breakfast. Really saucy and smoky.
The Paula’s toast was a bigger portion and very filling. The bacon they use here has a really good smoky flavour.
It seems as though everything is made fresh to order so service is a little slow. It took a good 30 mins to arrive and we were the only people in at the time

Delightful Atmosphere and Wonderful Food

The food was fantastic and the atmosphere was so welcoming. It was my first evening in Edinburgh after a long day of travel and this was the perfect place to end the day. Cozy, inviting, beautiful, delicious food.

Pros: The comfortable, welcoming feeling., The variety of delicious food., The friendly, appreciative service.

Comida deliciosa, aberto grande parte do dia

Este restaurante em Edimburgo foi a melhor experiência vegana que tive no Reino Unido! Comemos bowls muito bem preparados, temperados, coloridos e deliciosos. Pedimos sobremesas que estavam divinas! O local é muito bonito e aconchegante, com bom atendimento. É um excelente lugar para refeições, lanches e café da manhã e fica aberto até 9 pm, o que é bom para turistas!

Pros: Muitas opções de sobremesa, Comida bonita e bem preparada, Local bem decorado e confortável

Cons: Nada

food out of a packet

I came here in the past a lot as it’s my local vegan restaurant but I was always disappointed by how processed the food is. Lots of fake meat (not homemade), beans out of a tin, crazy prices. Seeds for the soul makes it sound like a whole foods restaurant but it’s really not. .Better burgers at nearby holy cow lounge are made from scratch.

Perfect food

Simply delicious. We finally had proper food in Edinburgh. The falafel bowl is amazing, as well as the burguer and the fries. I give it a 10, also the service was very nice. Thanks a lot.

Pros: Food, Service , Ambient

Not for me

Unfortunately, I didn’t like this restaurant. The food wasn’t for us, we weren’t able to eat what we ordered because the flavours were too strong and we didn’t expect it. The person who I guess was the owner was unfriendly to me and that made the experience even worse.

Pros: At least it’s a vegan restaurant

Cons: Food, Service

Absolutely delicious!

We went as a family of 4 - two under 5s. The "pink hummus" was a hit with both kids! It's nice to go somewhere that the kids' options aren't just chips, they actually had smaller versions of the adult meals.
My meat eating husband was really impressed with his burger... And my satay bowl was perfect. Why can't my salads at home taste like this?!

Pros: Child friendly portions of adult meals, Really friendly staff, Small menu, but very well done!

Lovely

This was a really nice cafe and the staff were great. The menu is small but obviously well curated. The food was tasty but didn't blow me away.

Cosy place

Super nice breakfast and lunch spot a little off the busy city centre. Had a vegan full English breakfast and pancakes and although I had better breakfast here in Edinburgh, it was filling and fine.

Still GREAT!

It'd been a while since visiting Edinburgh, but came back and had the chance twice, to visit SftS.
Benny first morning, and beet hummus on another morning. Really tasty.

Beautiful place, great food!

We got a great table under “the future is vegan” sign. Food was lovely. I think the Burgers are probably more value for money. Salads and bowls are a little overpriced for what it is. However, lovely setting, great staff. Check it out!

Pros: Interior , Coffee, Quick Service

Cons: Little overpriced, Staff to be a bit happier

Awesome place and food!

Went in for a quick dinner, such a lovely place! The food (we had the burgers) was sooo good. I truly recommend anything with their vegan cheese. Really loved the place!

Nicest bagel I've ever had

I ordered a bagel with mushrooms, red onion, hummus, rocket, tamari, sweet chilli sauce, salt and cracked black pepper and wow 😍 it was by far the nicest bagel I have ever tried. This wasn't actually on the menu however the girl taking my order was really friendly and helpful allowing me to swap some of the fillings. I would definitely recommend they put this on the menu as it was amazing. It's one of those dishes I keep thinking about weeks later! My non-vegan boyfriend had the breakfast pancakes and said it was one of the nicest pancake dishes he'd ever had. 10/10 would recommend going here.

Revised here again and ordered the same bagel it was that good! Also tried the salt and pepper chips and a green bowl which did not disappoint! The broccoli was delicious.

Delicious burgers and chips

We had burgers that were delicious! In addition, the salt & chilli chips were one of the best chips we’ve ever had. The place is fully vegan and there are many options, also a separate list for special dishes. They also serve breakfast, which we have to try one day!

The restaurant is nicely decorated and the atmosphere is pleasant. 🥰

Pros: Great vegan food, Cute restaurant, Friendly service

Alright

Nice location in a quieter neighbourhood. We went there for breakfast. They mostly serve savoury dishes, which was a bit disappointing. Food was alright though. Good coffee!

Disappointing

Great location and nice interior but left feeling disappointed. I went for the full English, it came with toast & tattie scone that were dry, I had to ask for some vegan butter. The tofu scramble was really bland, so I asked for salt & pepper. The vegan bacon was too salty, overall I've had better vegan breakfasts at non-vegan places which is sad but true. As a vegan I want to support wholly vegan places, but they need to deliver on taste.

Pros: Good options, nice interior, friendly staff

Cons: Fairly average tasting food

Bit of a shame buddy. This is one of my fav breakfast places but you must have got them on a bad day, Maybe we can try again next time you are viiting.❤️🌱

Pretty good

I really enjoyed the Vegan Benny. The pancakes weren't great, though. Overall, it's an adorable place.
