The food is incredible, you can tell they are Italian. They have gluten-free pasta options although there isn't much to choose from. It comes in a VERY small quantity for the price, but it is very very delicious for a treat-meal.

Loved this place. It was a rainy morning and we popped in for breakfast. The dining space is light and airy. The staff were friendly and attentive. The food was prompt and hot. Coffee was tasty. Would go back tomorrow if we were still in town. Photos are of the Porty Smash and Poached Eggs on Toast with crispy bacon. Gluten free bread option available with really decent sized slices of GF bread, which made a nice change.

Absolutely delicious vegan and gluten-free breakfast. You have two options for breakfast. One is the regular full breakfast that contains gluten and the other one is gluten-free variance of the full breakfast. We went with the gluten-free, which was excellent! Great selection of coffee and tea drinks as well. Very friendly service as well! Cute outside patio!

I initially was recommended a “small family-run” cafe to visit, but without a name, I was left guessing which of the hundreds of cafe in Edinburgh it was. Regardless, I went in out of curiosity. Upon walking down the stairs and entering the venue, a warmth of comfort engulfed me. Both from the atmosphere and the people serving. For the two times I was there, I got a dish and a drink. The homemade hot chocolate was definitely the one that stood out the most. Just absolutely rich in flavour. Their carrot and cumin soup was also splendid alongside their bread. Definitely a can’t miss when it’s the soup of the day alongside one of the sandwiches. Definitely a lot of variety of dishes and I appreciate the dietary customisation options such as gluten-free and diary-free alternatives. Decent variety of vegetarian options. I did take notice that a lot of options had avocados. I guess that’s a pretty popular ingredient.

I've tried DD's in 3 places now and it's been good every time. The menu changes frequently as does the location though the vibe of the cafe in Marchmont is great for brunch. The fried chicken is nice and crispy and a real treat if avoiding gluten (and also if not!). I highly recommend the Korean waffle if it's available (pictured at the Bellfield gf brewery popup). Very interesting flavours and not something you see everyday even with gluten. They even sometimes have guest pop-ups themselves in Marchmont which is a brilliant idea.

They had gluten free and vegan options. Baby friendly as has high chair (with an attached tray) and baby changing (though down some stairs so might be difficult for some people to manage) plus when we were there a lovely member of staff came over and gave us a reusable bowl and spoon to us and then some entertainment for the little one.

Cannot recommend this place highly enough! Best afternoon tea experience in a gorgeous setting. Extremely fair price for the amount of food you get and the quality. I picked this place because it has a fully vegan afternoon tea menu as well as a gluten free one, which was perfect for our group. Everything on the vegan menu was delicious and beautiful (see picture)! Our server, Mya, went above and beyond. She was so helpful and friendly - also a fellow Swiftie! We really enjoyed chatting with her!

We stumbled upon it by accident, but I really enjoyed myself. I have celiac and they took it very serious. They prepared my food in a separate pan and assured me that they would do everything they can to make sure what I eat is safe. They were very nice and sweet! The food was really good and I would definitely recommend it if you cant have gluten.

such a cute little cafe. love that it’s open so late as well. the dirty chai was one of the best i’ve had! not too much seating inside but if you can get a spot it’s definitely worth it! the staff was all super friendly and nice, also offered free cucumber/lemon water :) some tables have a “no laptop on this table” sign which i love so that not everyone is typing away :). they have lots of food options, including gluten free! would definitely recommend this and will be back again xx
