Overall Rating

Excellent

Feeling the strain of playing the tourist it was time for coffee. Being in the Grassmarket it was good to discover the Grassmarket Community Project Cafe. Tucked away, reasonably priced, very accessible and friendly.

Disabled Access In and Around

Excellent

Great access once you get inside. The main door is along a short approach off the pavement and is level and smooth for wheelchair access. The door to get in is one of the double door type and you may need a hand with it if you're a wheelchair user. Staff were happy to help. Once inside it's a great space.

Parking & Transport

Poor

Limited on street parking close by as it's on a junction. Possible to park further along the street.

Accessible Toilets

Excellent

Superb accessible toilet just of the main cafe area. Good wide door, bright and light, with plenty of space to manoeuvre. Easily room for a carer / PA if required. Grab rails and fittings all at good height and easy to access.

Staff

Excellent

Staff were very helpful. Happy to help with the doors and to move furniture.

Additional Information

Really relaxed atmosphere and nothing was too much trouble. Will visit again.
