Okay if you google best dessert places in Edinburgh, you will read about Coro Chocolate. First,…read morethey're open later than most places, not by much but enough that it counts. Second, their team (whose names now I have forgotten which is a shame) are extremely helpful and patient. They know their stuff. I was seated quickly and was given the menu and my eyes...my eyes were bigger than my stomach which is the other shame. My favorite was the Millionaire Shortbread Crepe. I mean come on. That thing was decadent, rich and just enough. That was probably the only dessert I was able to complete. Next, was similar to what we Americans call a pazookie. Nutella everywhere. I should've known that this would be the richest, creamiest and thickest of all. I probably should've ordered water but instead I craved a hot chocolate. I also ordered a hot chocolate which was dark chocolate I believe. Perfect for the cold weather. Unfortunately was stuffed by the time this came out. 10/10 recommend. Service is spectacular, team is friendly and genuinely enjoys being there and desserts, I mean cmon you can tell by the photos. Worth the hype. Worth the money and overall just a good place to hangout after exploring the city.

Staff was nice and the spot is cutely decorated. Upon walking in you smell the sweet aroma of…read moreChocolate. They have pancakes, waffles, bubble waffles, and crepes and you can create your own (each topping is extra) . They also have brownies, cake, or cookie dough bites and hot chocolate. We ordered the Nutella hot chocolate and the brownie with ice cream (extra). FYI they put marshmallow UNDER the whipped cream and one on top with the hot cocoa. I liked the cocoa, disliked the brownie. The brownie tasted more like a chocolate cake to my daughter and I. My daughter disliked the cocoa but liked the brownie. I also feel like for the price of the ice cream, it can be a bigger scoop. I was so excited to try this spot but overall, I feel it could've been skipped on our trip

Excellent Soft-Serve (go vanilla, you won't regret it). It's…read morenot quite Hokkaido-level soft-serve, but then again, what is? That said, this is really, *really* good. The vanilla is the way to go - it lets the flavor of the milk shine, and boy howdy, is that good!. While you're at it, don't get any sprinkles/whatnot - it will detract from the mouthfeel, which is oh so wonderfully unctuous. It's on the path to the castle, and well, well, worth the pitstop

The soft green paint and flowers everywhere was reminiscent of beaux arts Paris. My husband balked a bit at the feminine feel of the shop but embraced the beauty and really enjoyed it. It was exactly the mood we needed after a long day of touring Glasgow. The selection of pastries was beautifully displayed and unique. I chose what was described as a custard filled croissant with icing, my husband chose a salted caramel macaroon "sandwich " both were delicious! The service was great, they willingly explained all the types of luscious choices which were somewhat unfamiliar but displayed gorgeously.

So this is actually one of my favorite places to eat dinner in Edinburgh. I know that the city is…read morefull of incredible restaurants, but I've just got a soft spot in my heart for this one (probably because it was the very first place I ever ate at my first visit to Scotland). I've sat inside (which has a really cozy pub feel) and outside (taking in all the sights and sounds of the Royal Mile). I've made a reservation, I've also just walked in. I've had good service, great service, and really exceptional service. But one thing remains the same: I *always* get the Vegetarian Haggis Tower with mash, turnip, and whiskey sauce (it's probably my favorite veggie haggis in Edinburgh; and that cream whiskey sauce? could drink it!), a side of garlicky chips, sticky toffee pudding, whisky, Irn Bru, and a cider. It's a must meal for me anytime in the city.

It's hot and we all love a few scoops of enticing and luscious ice cream. So I went to check out…read moreScoopz. It's quite a small place conveniently located in Old Town near the Peartree pub. The interior reminds me of a 50's coffee place with red leather seats. I got a scoop of Banoffe. It tasted quite sweet. Yes Yes ,all ice cream is sweet, but there is a differentiation of good and luscious tastes. This taste was good and I can recommend this place for ice cream. They have quite a good assortment to choose from and you get served cups and cones, whatever rocks your boat! They also do pancakes and milkshakes, so I will definitely be back! Prices vary, but are definitely affordable. Enjoy!

Yup I was torn about giving this place 3 or 4 stars... Think it's probably 3.75! Great concept, all…read morethe sweets & chocolates to choose from & mix with whatever ice-cream, waffle, pancake combination you desire! I'd actually walked past this place numerous times in the past few weeks and simply hadn't spotted it - nothing eye catching about it and the interior felt more tacky then vintage. Now I'm fussy about ice-cream (living in Italy for 2years has turned my into a bit of an ice-cream snob) so I wouldn't call this good ice-cream at all. However once blended into a shake with your favourite chocolatey treat - it did taste pretty good! If you're feeling like having a bit of guilty chocolate / sweet junk food - then this is definitely the place to go!
