Oqo Cafe is an independent coffee shop at 19 Haddington Place in Edinburgh. Its colourful interior and relaxed daytime atmosphere suit breakfast, brunch, cake with friends or a longer coffee break close to the eastern end of the city centre.
Brazilian single-origin coffee from Santu is the focus of the drinks menu, with dark chocolate and caramel notes suited to espresso, piccolo and the cafe’s popular flat white. Familiar coffee styles sit alongside tea, hot chocolate and more unusual seasonal drinks.
The food extends beyond pastries to Scottish breakfast, shakshuka, Turkish eggs, savoury waffles, toasties and granola. Vegetarian choices such as scrambled tofu and smashed avocado provide meat-free routes through the brunch selection.
Cakes, cookies and scones are made in house, while croissants are brought in from a specialist bakery. The combination of substantial breakfast dishes and careful coffee makes Oqo useful for more than a quick takeaway; guests with allergies should ask about dairy, eggs, gluten, nuts and shared preparation.
