Great for a cold day

Curran Geal is a cozy cafe, which offered a range of soups and sandwiches, among other things. We got a toastie with soup, some coffes, a bagel and a pastry.

It was all very decent, however lacking a bit of wow factor. However I can’t complain. The warm food on a cold day really hot the spot.

Also lovely staff, all vegan and a little store selling vegan products on the corner.

A solid 4 stars from niki_nine

Pros: Warm and tasty food, Nice staff, All vegan

Cons: No wow factor

Great staff, food and decor

I had a wonderful meal with my family in this cute, little vegan cafe. There were plenty of soup options to warm us up on that cold day out and the ciabattas were incredible. The cafe also sells vegan goods (such as sauces and olives etc.) at reasonable prices! I would highly recommend this place to anyone especially if you have a dog as they are dog friendly. 10/10.

Pros: Creative and varied sandwich and soup options, Friendly staff, Dog friendly

Very good cappucino

Sadly we had already eaten so we only got cappuccinos.
However the cappucino was very good good, perfectly balanced between the foamed milk and the espresso! 👌

The staff was friendly and there are a ton of vegan unique groceries to buy in addition to a great-looking menu!

Pros: Cappucino, Unique vegan groceries, Staff

Delicious soup and grilled cheese

This is a great place for a delicious vegan lunch in a cosy, friendly cafe. It’s very reasonably priced and there’s plenty to choose from.

Cute cafe with lovely staff

Really lovely all vegan cafe. The food is great and quite reasonably priced - my non vegan friend couldn’t believe the chocolate cake was vegan. The staff are so friendly and the cafe itself has such a welcoming atmosphere. It is quite small with limited seating but well worth the visit if you can get a seat!

Perfect

This was the perfect little fully vegan sandwich shop and cafe. They have a fabulous selection of bakery items. The food was expertly prepared and served fresh and hot. The shop owner was so attentive and I couldn’t have been more pleased.

What a gem!

I must say this is one of my favorite places in Edinburgh. The owner is sooooo friendly and even her customers(/neighbors ;)) are very fun to chat with. I will definitely visit again for good laughs and super tasty cakes and coffee. Highly recommended!

Wonderful lunch

Had a fabulous lunch here as part of the Vegan Meetup group. Was a very hot day, so had a much-needed iced coffee (I slurped it all before I managed to take a picture) followed by a refried bean and vegan cheese wrap. It was all absolutely delicious. Can't wait to come back and try their cake next time!

Very nice vegan wraps

We had the BBY pulled jack fruit Wrap and the falafel wrap - both very very tasty. You can choose between fully vegan with vegan cheese or with cow-cheese.

Hi Hannah.

Thanks so much for your lovely review. Its great to hear people have enjoyed our food, and taken the time out of their day to review. Its very much appreciated 😘. Just wanted to clarify for any new visitors/reviewers that our pulled "pork" is BBQ marinated and pulled jackfruit...to avoid any confusion. And in new news....as of today we are 100% Vegan, so dairy cheese and dairy milk are no longer available as part of our menu.
Thanks again, hope you enjoyed your lunch, and hopefully see you again soon.
CG ❤️

No problem, and thank you for that....we still get people asking for a full English/Scottish cooked breakfast on a daily basis...and then somewhat confused to find that there isn't meat available....🤣❤️

One of my go-tos in Edinburgh

The sandwiches and wraps are great. My favourite is the vegan deli style ham with sauerkraut, but the refried beans and falafel ones are really tasty too. They have soups of the day which are also very nice, broccoli and cauliflower, leek spinach and tatties, mushrooms, etc.

The pastries are all vegan I think (not sure if that's always the case, but they usually have a sign saying it's all vegan) and are very good. They also have cakes and nice sourdough and rye bread to take away.

The place is also a shop with lots of food, drinks, sauces and even nice plants.
