The Best Vegan Brunches in Edinburgh
Since florets are all the rage at this year's Edinburgh Fringe, we’ve rounded up the best spots to get a seriously good plant-based Brunch - because Scotland’s capital serves up more than just haggis.
Anyone that’s been to the Edinburgh Fringe Fest before will tell you to load up on a big breakfast at the start of the day – turns out all that laughter really takes it out of you. This is where Piecebox comes to the rescue, with a menu that is packed with vegan options. Help yourself to the Full Vegan Breakfast, pancakes, French toast or good old Scottish porridge (made with almond milk, of course).

Vegans aren’t stuck with a salad as plant-based range from a wok-fried basil chilli stir fry and a fried cauliflower katsu curry.
