Our Story

Once a gathering place for some of history’s most influential minds, John’s Coffee House was lost to the great fire of Edinburgh in 1824.

Today, we proudly restore its 18th-century charm and Enlightenment spirit, creating a warm and welcoming space where stories are shared and memories are made.

Locally Sourced

We take pride in using locally sourced ingredients and partnering with some of Edinburgh’s finest producers.

From freshly baked goods to craft beers and cider, we work with local suppliers who share our passion for quality.
