“A Taste of France on Nicholson Street”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 April 2012

There are lots of good cafes in Edinburgh. This one's definitely my favourite though. An excellent range of sweet and savoury crepes, friendly atmosphere, great staff and the best coffee. Thoroughly recommended.

“Just perfect !”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 March 2012 via mobile

Le Cafe gourmand is one of these cosy Cafés where you really have the impression to be at home . The atmosphere is really nice , you could stay in one of the couch all the afternoon long with the delicious pastries , crêpes and tea . Or for lunch with the good homemade soups . The staff is also nice and friendly . As a French myself , I can tell : you won't regret it , everything is perfect !

“Should really keep it a secret”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 March 2012

Stumbled upon this newish place a few months back. Sooo good. Macaroons from France (passion fruit especially). Lovely staff. Fab coffee. Especially love the weekend breakfasts and lovely crepes. Little bit of France here in Edinburgh.
