Kuba At Edinburgh Printmakers — Restaurant in City of Edinburgh

Went there with my wife and we will come back for sure. We had about an hour to spare so we quickly went there and the car park makes it very easy, but let’s talk about the real stuff. THE FOOD.

First, I love pistachio so I had to try the pistachio pan cake ! And it was fluffy and tasty. The strawberries 🍓 did great and the pistachio sauce was the perfect blend 9/10 because you can always improve 😆.

Second, my wife went for the merguez sandwich. Now, we grew up in France and merguez sausages are a BBQ staple. A must ! And I haven’t had a good genuine merguez in 20 years in Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. Therefore I was really 🤔 wondering how it would go down.

Now. Enough talk, the sandwich took me by surprise, the merguez was seasoned perfectly. It wasn’t a sausage but a pattie and it worked really well, the melted cheese the pickled veggies and the bun bread… it was perfect. 🤩 9/10 (same reason - I’m a tough cookie to crack)

Conclusion :

I would recommend this place simply because every bite is worth it, the atmosphere is relax, the waitress was very nice and we will be back for certain, for all the above reasons. Keep on the good work we loved it 😊. I tried but I cannot fault the place and above...

I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to review but at least it means you can trust me on consistency - I come here at least weekly. I live near the Printmakers and was excited to see when the cafe changed hands what would happen. Kuba is FANTASTIC. The food is exceptional, healthy and wide ranging with some really interesting things on the large menu (the homemade merguez is amazing). The homemade drinks are also fantastic. The service is also wonderful, so friendly and welcoming, and the space is of course just a really nice place to be. If you’re hesitating - don’t! You will...

I'm wary of leaving a glowing review cos one thing I love about this place is that it's a quiet oasis of calm midweek, for a wannabe writer to do some work. But it does deserve to be better known. Perfect spot to punctuate a canalside stroll with a coffee and a snack. Light and airy, with a varied and imaginative, African-influenced menu (I just polished off a generous 'couscous al hanout' salad, so I feel both full and healthy). Charming camarera, unobtrusive background music and artists and an exhibition space to enjoy. What's...
