Twelve Triangles.
Portobello's favourite spot for sourdough toast and proper coffee, where the pastries alone justify the trip.

Head down to Portobello High Street and you'll find yourself in one of Edinburgh's most thriving neighbourhood pockets, and Twelve Triangles sits right in the thick of it. This is the kind of café where locals actually queue—not for Instagram points, but because the food's genuinely good and the coffee knows what it's doing. The triangles in question are their signature sandwiches and pastries, done with the sort of care that makes you realise most high street cafés have been phoning it in. It's unpretentious and busy in the best way, the sort of place where you'll see everyone from school runs to remote workers settling in for the long haul.
