A small shop, a big plate

We're a small burger shop down Leith Walk, and our food is hearty and big on flavour. Visiting our place, there's always room for a quiet burger and a coffee, a chat with whoever is behind the counter, and usually a dog or two making friends.

We keep our menu tight so we can do it properly. Two beef patties, double cheese, onion, pickles and our house sauce on the OG. House fries tossed with rosemary and salt, halloumi fries, truffle fries to share around the table. The portions are generous but never heavy, good coffee alongside, serving breakfast and brunch through the day, and a welcome that regulars keep coming back for.

What people say

“The food was fantastic and very well priced. We got two morning glory burgers, one side of tatter tots and chilli cheese bites. We loved all of it. And there was a cute little friend hanging around the place that added immensely to the atmosphere! Will be coming back :)”

“Found this place by chance when walking down Leith walk with my partner when looking for somewhere to eat lunch! We saw the good reviews online and decided to give it a try. The burgers were absolutely phenomenal and like many others are saying, some of the best I've ever had! …”

“One of the best burgers I’ve had in a long time! I had the OG which was two beef patties with double cheese, onion, pickles and their house sauce and my partner had the morning glory which was a beef patty with crispy onion, pork sausage, cheese and garlic and herb fried egg. …”

“Very nice local burger shop. They served very good quality burgers but not heavy. It didn’t look big but very comfortably satisfied proportion. Fries was very delicious and better to share around. The quality of coffee was nice. It is a beautiful local shop here on Leith Walk.”
