15 Best Coffee Shops in Stockbridge, Edinburgh: Where to Sip the Perfect Brew
Stockbridge has been my stomping ground for nearly a decade now, and if there’s one thing I’ve learned, it’s this: the food and drink scene here never sits still. It’s a neighbourhood that reinvents itself with flair, old favourites make way for fresh faces, and familiar spots get a glow-up just when you think they couldn’t get any better.
But one thing remains constant, Stockbridge is the beating heart of foodie heaven in Edinburgh. It’s where locals linger and visitors flock, especially at the weekend when the streets are buzzing with Stockbridge market-goers, brunch hunters, and coffee lovers on the prowl. Mondays tend to be a little more mellow (many spots take a well-earned rest), but don’t worry, there’s still plenty of caffeine and cake to go around.
In fact, there are so many cracking coffee shops tucked into this charming corner of the city that my list just keeps growing. I’ve had to bump it up to 15—yes, fifteen—because choosing just a handful would be a disservice to the sheer quality on offer.
Whether you're a local or just passing through; whether you’re after a silky flat white, a pot of loose-leaf tea, or a pastry that makes you weak at the knees, Stockbridge is brimming with brilliant spots for a brew. Here's your go-to guide for the best coffee, tea, and pastries in the neighbourhood complete with specialties, price points, opening hours, and dog-friendliness.
