An Edinburgh institution! Not only a brilliant queer friendly place but also a lovely cafe with vegan menu, rescue bread & pastries, small shop featuring queer artists and selling vegan goodies. This place also does frequent events including drag evenings, poetry readings and clothes swaps. Immaculate vibe!

A great cafe with delicious goodies. You can also purchase re-fills of goods and plenty of art. A wonderful gem which also celebrates and promotes diversity Edit: it also supports local artists!

Grabbed some takeaway coffee. Delicious! Served with a smile and the cups are so much nicer than the Starbucks Xmas cups! Kafe Kweer welcomes everyone so pop in when passing and enjoy the food, drink and good vibes. 💕🌈☕

Would give this place 10 stars if I could. Fantastic owner, fantastic food, all vegetarian. Fantastic art down the stairs and one of the only sober LGBTQIA places I know of. They also hold lots of events down stairs and they're VERY reasonably priced.
