Love, Peace and Coffee

Such lovely staff. Really helpful letting us know which tasty sweet treats were vegan, turns out lots, we bought five different cakes! 😅 Would recommend the NY Rolls not something we'd ever had before, soooo tasty.
Dog friendly and they were noticeably so happy to see our dog, coming to say hello and talking to her.

what a fun & cute place to grab coffee!! best hot chocolate of my life (made w/ soy milk no less) and the baristas were all so lovely. the carrot cake (vegan) was divine and the rest of the pastries looked equally as tasty

This place is amazing. The coffee and brownies are great and the employees are very nice. The price is super fair and they give student discount achso well. The owner is super friendly and always up for a nice talk. She gave us the best recommendations for excursion destinations. Kind regards from Germany and we look forward to our next visit in this beautiful place :)

Fantastic service and beautiful environment with lots of art. Very friendly atmosphere and amazing food. Enough space to sit. However, small selection of crisps.

Lovely little cafe!. We had just arrived to Edinburgh from a couple days in Isle of Sky. Was nice to grab a tea/coffee and enjoy the rain from a window, while we waited on our laundry next door. Pleasant staff, calm space.

We happen to be walking off the beaten path in Edinburgh and found this cute coffee cafe, we stopped in and we were so glad we did. The owner is a wonderful women who offers delicious coffee and warm treats! If you are in the area make sure to stop in to enjoy the warm and cozy atmosphere filled with love peace and coffee!

Such a great spot! The owner is lovely and a pleasure to chat with. And the waffles? Well in a word, fabulous! Highly recommend The Alex!

An absolutely beautiful cafe! The owner was so lovely and amazing to talk to

If you need a nice cafe with good drink to do your homework, you should visit this place.
They only serve vegan option, I ordered chai latte which is delightful and banana nutella waffle, I love the toppings but the waffle is a little bit thick, I prefer a thin and crispy one. Overall, it is a great cafe to visit and staffs are great

So happy with everything here, truly amazing coffee (and I have a very high Australian standard of coffee expectations) and the food is amazing, the Porridge Bowl is deliciously outstanding. Lastly, the customer service here is excellent by the owner and all the staff. I’m a very happy customer.

This is such an adorable little vegan friendly Café.
I had the lavender latte and it was tasty, reminded me a little of horlicks (but lavender)
There is a good amount of seating considering the size of the place, lots of natural light and cute artistic pictures the walls by young artists.
The staff were very friendly.
Would definitely go back here next time we're in the area.

The food here is amazing, the best place for breakfast or lunch. The coffee is the best I've ever had. The staff are also the most welcoming and friendly people! It is a safe space for lgbtq+ people. They are great with allergies, especially milk allergies, offering plenty of vegan options.

The best pancakes I've ever had! The girl who runs the place is so nice and lovely and the service is flawless!
Vegan options and something to eat for everyone!
You have to go here! 😍

Indeed a lovely and peaceful place with delicious chocolate cakes. The coffee was yum as well, very rich and aromatic (good break from all the pret and Starbucks). The layout of the place is cute. Had a toilet. offers student discount as well!! ❄❄

Probably my favourite cafe in Edinburgh. Great food and all the staff are so lovely, especially the lady who runs it. The waffles, vegan brownie and soup and toastie are the highlights. The mocha is one of the best I’ve had. Would definitely recommend for studying (there are plug points) or simply relaxing with friends or a book.

What a gem! A quiet sanctuary away from the hustle and bustle of Edinburgh's busy streets. The cafe offers a range of vegan sweet and savory foods which always look and smell so good, makes me rethink my ordering choices! 😅

Excellent and lovely place. Nice variety of teas and coffees, and their waffles are amazing. I had a classic one with syrup and it was delicious, vegan and gluten free as well. The Lady at the shop is so joyful and friendly as well!

This place gives Edinburgh a coffee shop that wouldn't be out of place in somewhere like San Francisco... Or Berlin ;) Most customers are students and LPC seems to cater well for this part of Edinburgh's populace. Very warm, friendly atmosphere and quite a buzz about the place.

This is a cute personable cafe with extensive menu items from sweet to savoury comforting lunches. I loved the warming drinks menu too,a must if you like creative drinks and have a sweet tooth! I loved my cheese toastie, really well done and my friend loved her falafel and hummus toastie. I'll be sure to be back for a cinnamon bun! We didn't feel rushed and lovely presentation and fair prices with good service too. Vegan and vegetarian friendly.

Great coffee and cake with pleasant staff. I got my coffee to go and the cup was the best disposable cup I’ve ever used(still using it)🏴??????
