“ Wonderful bakery which we visited yesterday. Good selection of sweet treats as well as some savoury options. I tried the chorizo cheese and ham bread thing (sorry I can’t remember the name) which was very tasty. The bread was very soft. I also had the cod fish cake which was also nice. Crispy on the outside and mushy on the inside. It was surprisingly tasty despite having it cold. The star of the show was the Pastel de nata which was amazing! Nice pastry on the outside and lovely custard on the inside. The lady that served us was also very friendly. I would love to come back to try something else next time because they have very authentic items. ”
“ Great cafe! One of the best oat cappuccinos I had in Scotland! Smooth, frothy and delicious. Appreciated the selection of food you can buy from Portugal and South Africa, too. Will be back when in the area. ”
“ Lovely Portuguese cafe. Perfect spot to enjoy a coffee, some sweet treats and sunshine. They serve great hot drinks, Portuguese patisseries, fresh Pastel de Nata, homemade soup and lots of Portuguese products. Friendly and helpful staff, nice decor, Portuguese vibes all around and a very nice terrace with a few tables. Perfect spot to enjoy coffee and catch up with friends. ”
“ The best news we had today! Casa amiga has brought the vibes to Whitburn. We used this amazing establishment back when we were in Edinburgh and it has the best pastries, service and obviously the best coffee imported from Portugal! ”
“ Very nice place, with a lot of pastries and very good coffee! We tried many of them but we will have to come back to taste the others because all of them were so good! Super service and good prices too, well done ladies! ”
“ Lovely food. Great for both breakfast and lunch. Not too expensive for the standard of food you are served. Lovely staff on hand to serve promptly and in a very professional manner. Will definitely frequent on the regular as a local cafe. ”
“ Discover Portuguese, visit this cafe in Leith. Leith walk closed but the small businesses open as usual. This place open at 8am and close at 4 pm. Try their coffee, food and cold drinks, you will love it. Very clean, friendly staff, freshly cooked at their cafe. Really enjoyed this Portuguese coconut filled bun. ”
“ Very friendly staff. Great selection of Portuguese food & coffee. Check out the freezer and shelves for stuff you won't see in Aldi! Cool selection of goods. Wouldn't be out of place in the West End. ”
