Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews

Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.

When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.

Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Simply wonderful!

Jul 2020 • friends

Having missed my regular visits to the Bread Street cafe I am happy I can still get my Greek Artisan Pastries fix at the nearby Portobello bakery. Everything is delicious and the portions are huge! The coffee is also excellent. What a warm welcome from the lovely young lady working that day, from providing water for our dog and the offer to write us a recipe. The long queue outside on Tuesday afternoon says it all!

Fast becoming an obligatory stop when in town

Feb 2021 • none

We were at the Conference Centre getting our Covid jab and they are only just up the road..... At least that was her excuse. Several large frozen pies bought but the villain in the script is Bougatsa Vanilla. Very nice, she always finds an excuse to eat the first piece within an hour of getting home and then say we might as well eat the other half, just to remove temptation.... We're considering ordering on-line and collecting since a small queue had gathered outside as we chose the items and had them all wrapped

Great wee place discovered

Jan 2020 • none

Great wee place discovered by my husband - we’re only visiting for a week and have been three times. He loved the coffee and citrusy coconut cake, I love the chocolate dipped cookies with pomegranate jam. So delicious! Welcoming and friendly service :-) We’ll be sure to pop in the next time we come back.

Hidden gem!

Mar 2020 • family

We had a family break in Edinburgh in the middle of March and came across this beautiful and lovely Greek bakery. Not only we were very warmly greeted but fully informed about everything we wanted to purchase or weren't sure about - 10 out of -10 customer service! My children were delighted with the new tasty choices (savoury and sweet). I planned to go back in April but now it will have to be after the lockdown :( Still, don't hesitate and explore the amazing treats with your first opportunity!

Authentic place

Oct 2021 • none

Small but warm shop where you are welcome by a polite and caring person. Good selection of sweet pastries as well as other food, cold and hot. Some Greek products available on the shelves also at reasonable prices. Excellent Greek coffee!

Just excellent!!!

Jul 2022 • solo

The best coffee in Portobello, and the pastries are excellent and as far as I can tell authentic. Excellent olive oils too. The guy who serves is very kind and helpful and is generous to a ‘t’ and I keep going back mostly for the coffee and pastries but also to see him.

Greek hospitality

Feb 2022 • family

Quick stop on our way back to Edinburgh. Cosy place with charming and generous host Mr Panayotis- we got treated to Florina Sour Cherry (a popular and hard to find Greek soft drink) just for being fellow Greeks. Thank you Panayoti for sharing Greek hospitality in this tiny corner of Portobello.

This was our second visit

Sept 2020 • none

We enjoyed what we bought the first time, so had to return. Living at the other end of the city, we were buying the frozen ones, ostensibly for Xmas. Each one we pointed at (Due Covid you stand in the street at the door) was explained and once the server had the 4 items all wrapped, he then wrote a note with baking times & temps. I mentioned Xmas - We need to go back to get more Bougatsa Vanilla. We've eaten the 4 portions......

Pie heaven

May 2020 • none

I saw this while cycling by yesterday. It's properly set up for safe buying in the pandemic. Bought a couple of spanokopita and a tiropita. It was magical, we could have been eating in thePeloponnese. The lad serving had great style as well.

Delicious

Feb 2021 • solo

This charming little bakery is a must if visiting Portobello. It’s been on my list of eateries to visit for a while now and it definitely didn’t disappoint. I headed there today and bought one savoury item and one sweet item. Both were delicious. They tasted so fresh and felt so authentic. I'd definitely recommend.

Incredibly warm service. Coffee and pastries were absolutely delicious. Beyond clean and tidy. Really couldn’t beat it! Stumbled across the place for a quick breakfast and couldn’t recommend it enough.

All Greek to me

Jan 2024 • couples

It is always a good sign when Greeks frequent a Greek eatery. We shared a Greek pastry and had a Greek coffee. It’s all Greek to me.

So so good! Everyone should try. Especially the spinach (spanikopita) and the potato ones, highly addictive! Lovely service too!
