The sizeable cafe is on the first floor of a well-appointed sports goods shop which specialises in walking and ski gear.

It is just off the busy Edinburgh by-pass and good for a business meeting.

The cafe is not plush but the coffee is good and the food looked appetising. There is plenty of car parking and it is busy.

Our Americano – we went large – tasted great and came piping hot but it cooled quickly because of the wide cups. That said, I would use this cafe again.
