Bross Bagels - Edinburgh

Sat in for a bagel and coffee on Wednesday. Coffee ok and chicken parma bagel tasty but difficult to eat as too much sauce and bagels seem to have got thinner from last visit. £8.50 a bit steep to be honest. Music blaring and male server behind counter rude and off hand with customers and in fact not particularly nice to fellow female staff member who he seemed to be training. Female server lovely and professional. Usually visit when in Portobello but will give it a miss now. Disappointing!

Filthy. The floor, the tables, the chairs, all filthy. They had overflowing bins right next to the counter. To top it off, I got a plain bagel (no butter, not even toasted) with two slices of packaged cheese. Will not be returning which is a shame, as it’s an attractive prospect, just dreadfully executed

We arrived at the till and I asked the server what kind of bagel would be best for a kid. She stared at me clueless “ohhhhh, any? I really don’t know”. Because there was a queue and she was staring at me with annoyance I decided to let the next customers go ahead. They bought a big bag of bagels and, after making me wait for 10 minutes the server just told me “sorry no more bagels”. We had to go after waiting at a filthy table. The place looks dirty and gloomy. The service is non existent. Worst place ever. Never coming back.

Holy mother of bagels. My bagel sandwich was out of this world. I enjoyed the Morning glory hole with vegan ranch instead of the chili Mayo, and IMMEDIATELY after eating it I wanted another. So delicious. Being from New York I am always hesitant to try bagels elsewhere as they always disappoint. I am happy to report there was no disappointment here. The bagels were thinner than NY bagels which made them PERFECT for sandwiches. The flavor was great too. All in all this place is great, there are so many vegan options, and I highly recommend.

Terrible quality of produce for price and poor service . Really gone downhill snd the owner owes lots of money to local portobello businesses apparently .
