Best Bakery and Cake Shops in Tarbrax

"Mimi's motto is "it's all about the cake", but this delightfully retro cafe also boasts one of the most luxuriant breakfast menus in the capital. The "Belly busting" breakfast menu incorporates local treats such as delicious Crombie's sausages, award-winning Stornoway black pudding and Ramsay of Carluke's bacon, as well as truly delectable homemade bread and deliciously warming porridge with nuts and honey. The pink and black burlesque wall paper complements the decadence of the menu and even after a generously proportioned breakfast you will find it hard to resist their cakes and pastries."

"This one might not run all year round but we couldn't write a piece on Edinburgh's markets and fail to mention it. The European festive market is a huge hit with visitors to the city and has become something of a tradition for many of those living in the capital."

"Princes Street Gardens is the most important public park in the heart of Edinburgh. Created in the 1820s after draining the Nor Loch."

"It was established during the seventeenth century and was the main parish church in Edinburgh from 1648 until 1952. It was named “Tron Church” because the temple was located beside a weighing beam (tron in Scots), which was normally used in the town's marketplaces, one of which was on the Royal Mile. In 1824 a great fire destroyed the bell tower, but it was reconstructed so well that visitors will hardly notice that it was built two hundred years later."

"This market, located on the banks of the Water of Leith, has become one of the most popular in town for a number of reasons. The paella served up there has become something of a local phenomenon while the impressive selection of cakes, pastries and donuts on offer rarely fails to whet the appetite. People also flock to the jubilee gardens each Sunday to sample some of the artisan breads and cheese brought along, and browse the selection of jewellery, arts and crafts."

"This bustling market is popular among locals and tourists alike, and the place to go to for delicious street food or a sweet Sunday treat. Handmade soaps, jewellery, bags, children’s clothes, gourmet dog food, organic fruit and veg, fresh fish and game are a few of the things you can pick up here as well, making it one of Edinburgh’s most popular markets. Make sure to visit pretty Dean Village while you’re in the area!"

"This is one of the best markets in town and open on Sundays from 10am to 5pm. Although the traders are not always the same from week to week, you’ll be sure to find yourself a sweet treat of your choice, whether that’d be cupcakes, crepes, brownies, marshmallows or healthy vegan raw cakes."
