the source coffee roasters

"This place has instantly become my favourite coffee spot in Edinburgh from the first visit. I was literally blown away by their flat white, which was unbelievably aromatic and flavourful. I’ve tried other menus as well (pour over and hot choc) and they were also out of this world. I really couldn’t ask for more."

"The most amazing coffee I have had in Edinburgh and possibly the best coffee I have ever had. Fermented beans imported by the shop owner directly from farmers in Columbia and across the world, and then hand roasted in East Lothian. I have had a lot of expensive coffee, but none as distinctive as the brew at The Source. If you love coffee then don't miss your chance to have an espresso at this place."

"We enjoyed this place, this coffee and communication with owner of this business. Coffee is really really special and tasty. Good quality for a good price. With a nice atmosphere. Also with sweets, if you want some. Owner is very friendly and created this place with an idea of a coffee spot only. Not a cafe, no other food. Only high quality coffee. Amazing"

"We headed here before catching a train from Waverley. They use coffee roasted themselves and have excellent knowledge of their product. We had a flat white (pictured) and cappuccino using their Kenyan blend, and both were excellent. A decaf espresso followed and this had an interesting complexity not often found in decaf. Despite not really needing any more beans at home for a while, I had to grab a bag and was glad to hear they offer free postage. There was a small range of food on offer but it's clearly been selected carefully. The jammy dodger cookie (pictured on the train) was very special but the real star was the sandwich. The fried aubergine option was the best sandwich I've had in a very long time. The owner is very knowledgeable and shares what he knows freely, helped by the counterless design. This made for a less formal space and encouraged interaction. Overall, this was a great visit and I'll definitely be returning next time I'm in Edinburgh."

"The best coffee experience every coffee lover could wish for. I love when people with passion do what they love and they do it well and this place it definitely a great example! The ambience and the owner himself were second to none. A must visit when in Edinburgh seeking great coffee! Definitely the best coffee I’ve had in a while."
