Comfy couches and a bright airy interior combine with outdoor seating for those rare sunny Edinburgh days.

Loudons is tucked out of the way at Fountainbridge so you have a reasonable chance of claiming a comfy couch if you get there early.

They also offer handmade chocolates, ice cream and a full take away menu.

5 of the best places in Edinburgh for pancakes

The Fountainbridge eatery serves up a variety of savoury and sweet stacks of pancakes to delighted customers.

This Hanover Street cafe is famed for its delicious stacks of fluffy pancakes draped in all manner of toppings.

Their buttermilk vanilla pancakes with syrup and bacon are particularly popular, though if you fancy a sweet option the strawberries and cream pancakes are delicious.

The melted chocolate and strawberry pancakes are the ideal treat for Pancake Day.

The butternut squash, sweet potato, spinach, tomato and pistachio crepe is a great lunch option, while the cranachan pancake makes for an excellent dessert.

REVIEW: Loudons Edinburgh - Gluten Free & Dairy Free Cafe

After much deliberation we chose the Gluten Free & Vegan Banana, Coconut Pancakes as well as the Smoked Salmon & Poached Eggs on freshly baked Gluten Free Toast.

Not even 2 days had passed since our last trip to Loudons & even with so many delicious gluten free options in Edinburgh, we found ourselves craving more from Loudons; so we returned again for lunch!

This time I opted for one of my all time favourite dishes… Smoked Salmon & Scrambled Eggs with their delicious gluten free toast.

The best French Toast he has ever had… & to think that they can use their freshly baked gluten free bread to make this dish gluten free makes me want to get the train up to Edinburgh immediately!

I am very pleased to say I managed to bring a little bit of Loudons Edinburgh home with me in the form of a loaf of their Gluten Free Bread.

We used to go to Loudon's regularly, there was always plenty of space and there are good disabled facilities.

The tables are a good height and there's space to pull in close.
