Tranquilo y buena comida

Es un sitio situado en una calle al lado de la Royal Mile un poco pequeño, pero tranquilo y comfortable. Fuimos a comer a la 1pm un sábado 2 personas y no tuvimos problema para encontrar mesa, pero era temporada baja (octubre). Si vais en verano quizá convendria reservar o ir más temprano.

La comida es variada y puedes escoger creps dulces o saladas o comer una hamburguesa y otros platos salados. Tiene un menú aparte con todos los platos veganos disponibles. El personal es amable.
Nosotros comimos una hamburguesa de no-ternera cada uno y compartimos una crep de champiñones, tomate seco, aceitunas y queso vegano. Lo que no me gustó es que de opción proteica solo tienen la hambueguesa. Si pudieran añadir tofu o alubias seria ideal

Pros: Variedad de creps, Hamburguesa buenisima

Cons: Falta alguna opción más de proteína

Super Lecker und für die Royal Mile günstig.

Haben hier den begaben Burger gegessen. War lecker und günstig. Es gibt extra Speisekarte für vegane Gerichte, die Lust auf mehr macht (z.B. Crêpe oder All Day Breakfast). Das Restaurant selbst ist super schön eingerichtet.

Excellent Vegan Menu!!

I wanted to give 5 stars, but Happy Cow doesn’t allow because the establishment is not fully vegan.
The vegan menu is complete for breakfast and lunch. Excited to return tomorrow to try the crepes.
The wait staff was EXCELLENT— so friendly and even told us about other vegan restaurants in town.
So gracious— loved everything we had!!
Thank you Wanderlust!!

Pros: A full vegan menu, The lattes are delicious, Full Scottish breakfast-100% vegan

Tasty breakfast option

I had the full vegan breakfast and found it filling. The vegan sausage was a bit too meaty tasting for me but the haggis was good and there was a good variety on the plate.

There's a separate vegan menu with lots of good drink options of vegan hot chocolate /latte, juice and smoothies, plus options of savory and sweet crepes, bagel etc.

I would probably give 4 stars (rather than 5) even if vegan.

my favorite breakfast place

This place is my number one recommendation for breakfast. They have a fairly large vegan menu, lots of fun options for drinks including all different smoothies and juices, and their vegan crepes are the best I’ve ever had. The crepe batter they use is exactly what I remember non-vegan crepes tasting like. Definitely will be back here for many future breakfasts.

So Good

Love this place, staff are great and happy to chat about vegan options and the brands/ingredients they use. There are loads of vegan options, with seperate menu. The first time I visited I just had the biscoff hot cholocate which was amazing.
The next time I had the potato waffles.
100% a place to check out.

I really liked the fact that they provide a separate vegan menu and there are many options. The food was great (we had the burger and the panino) and not expensive. In addition they provide 20% discount to students.
The staff is really nice and the environment and music is very cool. Totally recommend!

Pros: Dedicated vegan menu, Great staff, Great environment & music

Cons: Closes early

Good vegan brunch

We stopped by for brunch before tackling Arthur's Seat. Sunday morning but very busy and only the one waiter. He apologised later fit not being as attentive as normal. We had a bit of a wait but it was fine. Separate vegan menu - I chose the full vegan breakfast which was very good as was the coffee.

Pros: Vegan menu, Reasonable value

5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from me!

I know this place is not 💯 vegan but their vegan breakfast roll is a five ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️! So good! I’ve had it 4th time when I stay for university. Latte oat is so lovely! They have separate menu for vegan, look so yummy!

Pros: Lots of vegan option, High quality food, Friendly

Delicious full English

Stopped by here to refuel after climbing Arthur’s Seat and the full English was just what the doctor ordered. Great combination of ingredients and in just the right quantities. Left feeling very satisfied and without the greasy feeling you sometimes get from that type of meal. They had lots of other nice looking vegan options too.

Very good english breakfast

Again, a few non vegan friends have been enticed by a vegan meal. It was very nice. And very pleased with the 20 percent student discount!
Edit:
Why does the plate for junior breakfast have to be junior size too. Pls just give me a useful plate.

Great place

I really enjoyed wanderlust. I went for breakfast and had a sausage breakfast roll and a delicious biscoff hot chocolate. The sausage didn’t feel processed, it tasted full of veg which was a lovely surprise.

Pros: Vegan menu, Nice atmosphere

Nice vegan breakfasts

We enjoyed our visit to Wanderlust Café & Bistro. I had a much needed ‘immunity boosting juice’ (apple, orange & carrot) followed by a vegan full breakfast. Service was friendly but a little slow (it’s only a small place so perhaps the kitchen is quite small?) but the food was worth the wait.

Pros: Several vegan options, Friendly staff, Tasty vegan breakfasts

A must visit in Edinburgh

We've been twice to the café which is in an excellent location. The staff are extremely friendly and there is a full vegan menu. The pancakes are great, as are the juices, coffee and breakfast.

Can't wait to come back for lunch!

Pros: Vegan menu, Central location, Lovely staff

Good Vegan Menu

We would have liked to have tried breakfast at this cute looking little cafe. However the chef was late, stuck in traffic, and we had a train to catch. However the separate vegan menu looked very good and we will be sure to go next time we're in Edinburgh.

Great vegan breakfast

Love an egg alternative but nice change of direction to have a full breakfast without but instead having a vegan haggis. Really good!!

Fantastic vegan breakfast

They have a fantastic separate vegan menu with lots of options, definitely for the vegan looking for a place that doesn't just offer a"token jesture" vegan option. I came twice for breakfast and it was good value for money. Very friendly staff.

Pros: Separate vegan menu, Vegan knowledgeable , Friendly staff

Great scottish breakfast

We really enjoyed our breakfast here, it was a fresh, filling and healthy start to the day before hiking Arthur's seat. Drinks were good too. You get a 20% discount on food if you're a student which is always a plus as well😄
