Day I Found It

Meeting up with student friends in Edinburgh city centre. The café is around the corner from the Museum of Scotland and the famous statue of Greyfriars Bobby & Kirk. The café is very comfortable, homely and welcoming. The homemade cakes and pastries are delicious and the aroma of coffee is wonderful! It is a great place to relax, chat and sit as long as you like...... especially on a rainy day! J.K. Rowling also wrote her many Potter books here!
