Cocorico

You'll find Cocorico tucked away on Jane Street in Leith, the kind of place that feels like it's been there forever even if you've somehow never stumbled through the door. It's got that relaxed continental café vibe without the pretension—locals nursing espressos at the counter, a few tables spilling onto the pavement when the weather's decent. The ratings speak for themselves: nearly five stars across hundreds of reviews, which in Edinburgh usually means the croissants are proper buttery, the coffee knows what it's doing, and nobody's charging you £6 for a cappuccino just because it comes with latte art.
