Lovely cream tea! Totally recommend, everything is so cute and the decoration is adorable, even in the bathroom! I was told the hot chocolate is also delicious!
Charming little tea room with only 8 tables. It opens at 930 in the morning and get filled so fast. They offer various selection of cakes (gorgeous ones) and breakfast menu (I was there for breakfast). Food was decent and price was fine. The interior of the place is what really make the place charming. Tables with crochet tablecloth or embroidery. Little cups with flowers.
A charming and cozy tearoom with a lovely vintage atmosphere. Clarinda’s feels warm and welcoming from the moment you step inside. The cakes are delicious and freshly made, and the tea selection is excellent. The staff are friendly and make the experience even better. A perfect spot for a relaxing break in Edinburgh. Highly recommended!
A quintessential Edinburgh experience! Tasty tea, scones, shortbread, and quiche in what feels like your grandmas living room. The service was lovely. We arrived to a line of 6 others, and were seated in around 5 minutes sharing with the others in line. At around 2pm a few baked treats had sold out.
We had envisioned our holiday in Scotland to include a delightful meal at Clarinda's Tearoom in Edinburgh. Although our research led us to the opposite side of town from the Edinburgh Marketplace rail station, our journey along the Royal Mile was truly enriching. We encountered the vibrant sights and sounds, exploring numerous Scottish souvenir shops and the Edinburgh Museum, both highlights on our itinerary. Finding Clarinda's on the Royal Mile proved easy. Upon arrival at lunchtime, the tearoom buzzed with energy. We were fortunate to connect with a warm and friendly American woman who generously shared her table with us after another guest departed. Our conversation flowed effortlessly, as we exchanged stories of our experiences in Scotland. At the same time, she spoke of her recent arrival from Boston and her anticipation of a camping adventure in the Scottish Highlands with new acquaintances. Her spirit of adventure inspired us! Clarinda's Tearoom lived up to its glowing reviews, offering a charming atmosphere, attentive service, and delicious food. I savored the broccoli and cheddar soup paired with a cup of chai latte, a recommendation from a Google reviewer. Typically eager to capture food photos, I was captivated by our engaging conversation instead. Leaving Clarinda's, we celebrated checking it off our holiday list. With welcoming staff and a cozy ambiance, it left a lasting impression and truly enriched our Scottish adventure.

A cozy vintage escape on the Royal Mile, serving delightful teas and homemade cakes.
