Vin Caffe, Multrees Walk, Edinburgh

2nd time I have been for a coffee after work - the place looked like it was closing - staff very little interest in actually assisting the customers. Cakes were extremely overpriced a little finger sized choux pastry £1.50 and they actually gave me a knife and fork to eat it with - a tad over the top. Sat for a while waiting for waitress to realise we had finished and perhaps we would like a another coffee.

Very cold and dismal as were the staff - the first time was bad enough( like being in Library with the atmosphere but last night was even worse......far better to any other coffee shop/restaurant than here again!

With the fact that there will soon be competition from another coffee shop in the area I think it is about time Vin Caffe threw in the towel.

Very poor! We ordered our food and another waitress brought it to our table- pasta for my husband and fried potato chips for me which she tried to serve despite the fact I had also ordered frittata. It took 5 minutes before our original waitress garbled that the menu had changed - no one had told her and that there was no frittata. I had to ask her to take all the food back as I was there to eat a meal with my husband. I then ordered chicken and fried potato chips. When our meal arrived there was also a side order of chips which I told her we no longer required as chips were served with the chicken. At no time did a supervisor or manager come to speak to us. The quantity of the food was very poor and the quality was not much better! No offer of a free drink or coffee was offered. We won't be back!

The service was informal and friendly, but for good Italian food I might go elsewhere. I didn't think the food here was as good as my wife's non-expert Italian cooking. I found the bread and salmon a bit dry.

It's easy to boo at Vin Caffe in Edinburgh. Unfortunately, there was an unwelcoming atmosphere, and it is very overpriced.
