Just wanted casual coffee and cake with friends but instead ended up with racist and sexist abuse upon our entry into the cafe. Wish we had walked out then and there but we decided to give the cafe the benefit of the doubt as there seemed to be 2 members of staff and it was just the elder man (father I presume) that was being rude. He continued to harass us, making sexist comments whilst attempting to guess our ethnicity. He was wrong and insulted about 5/6 countries whilst doing so with horrific stereotypes.A vile, horrible old man, have absolutely NO idea how he still has a business on a busy and popular street. His son is not much better, totally abusive and disgusting family. On a side n...
We popped in for a spot of lunch and unfortunately paid up front. The old guy owner came upstairs smoking a cigar and stood in front of us smoking and making us feel uncomfortable for not have the same accent as him. Then he slapped lots of newspapers with coverage of the Scottish Independence parade in front of us, making it clear that we were not welcome in his cafe. If we had not paid in advance, I would have walked out but the food arrived. The food was bland, the chilli was tinned tomatoes, tinned kidney beans and onion. The good part of the meal was that at least the cigar smoke did not ruin good food. My verdict: he should be shut down.
We were lucky to find this nice Laundry Kafe. We dropped off our Laundry (which was dirty from a week of hiking) and they dropped it off at our hotel the same day. It was folded nicely and smelt great. Also they have a nice cafe there with coffee and tea and food. They serve breakfast.Also it is in a neat part of town near a college campus with interesting shops nearby, like a vintage clothes store, etc. Fun little walk, just 10 to 15 minutes from the Royal mile.
We stopped in late today to do our laundry having just arrived in town after being in the UK for a week. Everyone there was so caring and helpful! They gave us directions to a restaurant where we could get fish and chips and even instructions on how to get there via the bus system since we were new to the area. We would definitely stop there again and next time would love to enjoy some of the delicious food that we saw and smelled!!! They are top-notch!!!
