Great Taste award winning Spinach Pie with Feta Cheese.
In 2024, we proudly received a Great Taste Award (one star) from the Guild of Fine Food — a recognition that fuels our commitment to quality and innovation. Our recipes are rooted in high-quality organic ingredients, including flour, eggs, milk, chocolate, butter, sugar, dried fruits, oat milk, and cacao. We use award-winning organic milk and cream from Mossgiel Farm, and source most of our ingredients from trusted ethical suppliers like Green City and Shipton Mill.
Lady and the Bear is more than a café — it’s a celebration of craft, culture, and community.
What Our Customers Love
Nice bright coffee shop right on the Meadows. Only had coffee. Can't comment on the food but the cakes looked delicious
Atmosphere is great, I wanted coffee and wife wanted something sweet, we tried chai latte and Nutella brownie and it was so delicious and tasty. One of the best chai latte I had in UK. Highly recommended
I lived in Edinburgh for 6 months for an exchange semester. I have a huge list of saved cafes in the city and yet I choose to go to lady and the bear over and over again. It’s bright has such a nice atmosphere, the staff is super nice and the drinks are very good! My favorite is the mocha with organic cacao 🙂 They have WiFi and an area to use laptops which is rare to find! They also have outside seating. I am genuinely gonna miss this place! 🐻🫶🏼☕️
nice place to have a drink with your loved one.
