Excellent focaccia with very tasty filling. Coffee and cake also first class. Charming and helpful staff.

The menu that is in the link doesn’t not match what the menu at the cafe says. We went for French toast,eggs etc but they was only two toasties on the menu.More

Hi Shauno, Thanks for the review, we've never updated our menu on Tripadvisor but will do so now. I'm sorry that this has left you disappointed. However, whilst our menu is more limited, it's more than just a couple of toasties. We do a selection...More
I actually have not come in person but I used their services to get a cake delivered for a friend. I spoke to this fantastic and sharp woman called Fiona who was warm, funny, superbly helpful and made my experience on the phone such a...seamless and pleasant one. Fantastic customer service. I would order all my cakes here just to interact with Fiona! Thanks a lot Fiona 💕😊More

Cuckoo’s is my absolute favourite cafe in the area. The team are brilliant and happy, the coffee is delicious and the red velvet cupcakes are incredible! Highly recommend this place.


We ordered a cake from Cukoos for a large party. The ordering process was straight forwards and the cake delivered to our venue with no hassle. The cake was absolutely delicious and complimented by so many guests. We will be returning again!

Me and my son LOVE this café. The drinks and cakes are divine but what makes it truly special are the women who work there. They are so kind and welcoming to every single person who comes in, it’s true Scottish and Italian hospitality at...its finest. They make such a fuss of my little 3 year old who calls it the ‘Funny Lady Café’ because they’re always trying to make him laugh. A truly perfect spot for a coffee, one of their incredible hot chocolates or a delicious cake. One of Edinburgh’s best cafés without a doubt. Photo is from my son’s birthday, when they brought the cake with a candle on it and sang to him 😍More


Headed down to Cuckoo’s to get something sweet! Great selection of cakes considering it was 3-4 in the afternoon - I had an Oreo cupcake, whilst my partner had a Nutella cupcake - both were delicious and fresh!! We had a dark hot chocolate also...which was spot on. Not sure of waiter’s name, but she was lovely and attentive! Also, with it being approx 1 mile from centre/markets, it wasn’t heaving busy! Would defo recommendMore



I’ve been to Cuckoo’s a couple of times and always loved how cosy and welcoming it is. Great coffee, comfy seats, lovely staff and obviously yummy cupcakes. Realised very last minute I’d promised to get some birthday cupcakes for work and they were so helpful!...Made up two boxes of awesome Halloween themed delights for one of my colleagues, who loves all things spooky. ‘Dead’ velvet and stewed apple and bones were particular faves! We ate them so fast I forgot to take pictures 🙈.More

I have ordered two birthday cakes for delivery in Fife and the whole process from ordering to delivery was first class and both cakes were outstanding. Highly recommend.

We found a parking spot about a mile from the castle. Just happened to stumble on this bakery, and noticed they had sanwiches. So fresh and tasty. On way back we stopped for dessert. Baked goods were excellent. Most impressive was the service - let...us sit even though they had just closed. Went out of their way to take care of us. Will make a trip to Edinburgh and Cuckoo's next time we are in Scotland for sure!More

I would like to thank Fiona & Gabriella for their outstanding service friendliness and welcome what beautiful ladies they were and we certainly will be back as our American family also enjoyed themselves 👍

We had a great experience going for breakfast here! Special shout out to Gabriella who was so friendly and charming and made our day!! Definitely recommend a visit here !

Warm, friendly welcome with a great choice of food. Coffee lovely and tasty croissants. Very clean toilets a bonus. Well worth a visit.

Amazing customer service from Thomas and team. Ordered a cake for a party which was cancelled, cuckoos arranged cake for a different date and have bee fantastic in their communication and amazing cake delivered instead of original.
