This West End retreat is equal parts family gastropub and cool hangout, serving a delicious Breakfast menu.

Unbeatable service underpins The Huxley, their company values being that of easy, relaxed company and good value fare. Relax along the burnt orange banquettes or relax by the underlit bar for a cosmopolitan dining experience.

With this central location looking out onto Edinburgh Castle, The Huxley is the perfect venue for after work drinks, a catch up over a coffee and a delicious bite to eat while you pass the time and watch the pedestrian traffic of Princes Street pass you by.

Go traditional with a ‘Full Scottish Breakfast’, packed with Hardiesmill beef sausage, haggis, potato scones and all the rest. There are also lighter options such as the granola bowl or porridge, as well as all the Breakfast classics.

The Huxley is located on Rutland Street, right by Princes Street. Haymarket Station is just a short ten-minute drive away.

    Delicious Angus bacon cheeseburger, fries & cider. Separate gluten free fryer. GF bun didn't disintegrate as they typically do. Cider crisp and tart. Waiter very helpful, attentive & friendly. Wonderful view of Edinburgh castle.

    One of the most delightful spots in all of Edinburgh! In just two days of being in the city, I’ve already visited this café-winery five times — and for good reason. The service is outstanding, and the staff, especially the managers and supervisors, are incredibly welcoming and attentive. It’s a rare find where hospitality, atmosphere, and quality come together so perfectly. Highly recommended, and I’ll definitely be coming back again!

    Stopped in for an early breakfast and was pleasantly impressed. The atmosphere was cozy and relaxing, complemented by beautiful views of the surrounding historic architecture. We ordered the Full Scottish, Eggs Benedict, and French Toast—all exceptionally well-prepared and flavorful. The service was friendly and efficient, setting a positive tone for the day ahead. A highly recommended spot for breakfast in the heart of Edinburgh.
