About

The Nook is a relaxed Leith cafe where the tofu scramble toast with house beans is a standout vegan breakfast, alongside avocado toast and occasional vegan cakes. There’s outdoor seating for sunny days, Pekoe tea and coffee drinks made with plant milk, though reviewers note vegan treats can sell out and the cafe may get short on indoor seats when busy.
