A Coffee in Edinburgh VII: Kilimanjaro [On The Road: Edinburgh]

No, no. He's pretending he's got gonorrhea so med students can diagnose
 it

Jerry Seinfeld (Seinfeld episode “The Burning”)

Kilimanjaro is a nice coffee place in Edinburgh. Same owners as Wellington Coffee. Located near the University so expect to be full of a young student crowd. A noisy and packed café, vintage look with the obvious life in Kilimanjaro pictures. They are serving breakfast, paninis, soups for a bite, and for a drink a nice Square Mile coffee.

The place

We went at breakfast time, the place was completely packed, we got a couple Flat Whites. Really nice, strong coffee, great balance, creamy, and top latte art.

A Coffee in Edinburgh I: Brew Lab [On The Road: Edinburgh]

I wonder what actually happened in that lab

Elaine Benes (Seinfeld episode “The Non-Fat Yoghurt”)

I went for a coffee excursion in Edinburgh. Looking for a perfect cup in a rapidly multiplying options of independent coffee houses. I had a bit of help (lot of actually) to choose the right places thanks to local blogger Edinburgh Coffee Lovers. My first stop was Brew Lab, convenience located nearby my hotel, just by the university. A rustic meet industrial kind of place, alternative decor and full of character, probably by the beautiful Slayer coffee machine.

The place

We got a macchiato and a flat white, strong with some bitter notes, nice balance, really good coffee, latte art almost there.
