    Beautiful food, fresh, lovingly prepared and cooked. The owner has brought his own family recipes from Lebanon to Scotland and his family must be proud. Edinburgh has been treated to great Middle Eastern food. It was my first time today with my girlfriend eating there - in the words of Arnie: "I'll be back!"

    What a find! The food was incredible. A unique family run little place. Lots of options and flavours to enjoy. Absolutely delicious. We will definitely be back.

    Easily the best falafel I’ve ever had and I’ve tried them near and far on this place we call Earth. Made in authentic Lebanese style by an incredibly kind human being that makes you immediately feel warm and welcome. Honestly, a chunk of falafel hit the floor and I wasn’t having it! Had to pick it up (5 second rule doesn’t even apply because the place is so clean) We also enjoyed lovely coffee and Baklava which was as a treat as you’d imagine with those window views.

    One of the best meals we’ve had during our month in the UK! The space may appear small from the outside, but you will receive a warm welcome from the owners that prepare this wonderful and flavourful food!

    Best falafel wrap in all the lands. Super healthy and delicious. Wrap is lite and fresh, flavours are world class. Nicest family owned business around. Highly underrated gem in Edinburgh.

    This family-run shop has a friendly atmosphere and delicious food (truly no wrong choices). They make the most of their cozy space. Best falafel we’ve ever had!

    I always get the falafel wraps and it is just amazing. From the bread to the proper fresh falafels that are fried fresh in front of you, all the spices and flavours I'm sure respects where it is from. Gives you authentic Lebanese taste. People there are kind and make your food with love. Just as you expect from a family-run place. You will not be disappointed.

    Tiny cafe and takeaway in Morningside with the most friendly welcome and lovely food. We simply asked to be guided on our lunch and we weren't disappointed. Interesting options and definitely not your usual "run off the mill" cafe... Highly recommended

    Amazing place! Everything was delicious! So many great vegan options and generous portion sizes, all for a really reasonable price. The owner is lovely, really friendly guy who is clearly very passionate about his food. We were really pleased to see the compostable takeaway packaging too. Will definitely come back if we're ever in Edinburgh again!

    Best falafel I’ve ever had, best Lebanese food, best wraps to take away, best everything. Me and my partner eat here regularly and we can’t get enough. Truly a gem in Edinburgh.

    It was a lovely small authentic breakfast/lunch Lebanese with a Scottish twist cafe😍 We had two falafel wraps one with baba ganush and the other hummus sauce, fatoush salad, vine leaves, tea and baklava ❤ They deserve more than 5* as they were very welcoming and served great food! Will defo be back. P.s. the food pics was too late 😂most was already digesting inside.

    Absolutely amazing food!! The falafel wrap is superbly delicious and staff are incredibly friendly. Most certainly the best place in Morningside for lunch or takeaway food and will always recommend going here to friends and family. The interior is fab, decent prices and i cannot wait to go again soon!!

    My favourite place to eat in Edinburgh. I’ve been coming to Hummus almost every week since it first opened and I have literally never stopped being amazed by the quality of the food. Everything is delicious and prepared in store by the lovely family, with care and uncompromising standards. The ingredients are traditional and high quality and the company in the shop is always a pleasure. It is an absolute credit to the community, full of regulars all the time. A must visit spot to eat!! Get the falafels, by far the best I’ve ever had!

    Small family-owned Lebanese café in the heart of the Morningside road. Selection of salads, vine leaves, spinach pasties, green beans, fattoush, (the best in town) baba ganoush and falafel wraps, hummus and others. You can also have baklawa, apple cake or crunch bar. Selections of kombuchas, ginger beers, cafés, teas and hot chocolate. All mentioned are fully vegan.

    It is so lovely to come in and get amazing Lebanese food. Staff is always so friendly and chatty and we always taste something new. The portions are very generous and food is super yummy and healthy. We always look forward to coming back. Grazie mille

    Delicious, travel from the other side of town to visit. Really lovely people and delicious food!

    I am so glad I stumbled upon Hummus. The food was so fresh and unbelievably delicious. I've kind of gotten bored with vegan options (I've been vegan for many years) but here I felt excited to try everything and truly enjoyed everything I ordered. The service was so lovely, too. Felt so welcomed and looked after!

  • 5/5 Gordon L. 5 months ago on Google
    Small but lovely cafe serving excellent Lebanese food, including delicious Falafel wraps, hummus (of course), and sweet treats like Baklava. Very friendly service. Highly recommended!

  • 5/5 Gaelle B. 5 months ago on Google
    Simple, we go every week for the amazing, fresh food and the fun chat. A brilliant place. Highly recommend it if/when you're in Morningside.

  • 5/5 Emma L. 5 months ago on Google
    Fantastic! One of the best wraps I have ever had - simple but delicious. The staff were lovely and it clearly is a well loved place in the community. I will definitely be returning to try everything else!

  • 5/5 Fiona B. 8 months ago on Google
    This is a great little place to get food. My boyfriend recently discovered falafels whilst on holiday and has become a bit obsessed. He has been on a mission to find falafels as good as the ones we had on holiday, and this place wins hands down. The best place to get falafels in Edinburgh. I had the falafel salad and it was the best salad I’ve had in my life. The people working there were very friendly. They clearly put a lot of love into the food they make. They only have a couple of tables and most people I saw there were getting food to take away. A fabulous place. I’ll be a regular there from now on.

    Really good food! Extremely fresh and tasty. The service was quick, helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend for a quick but hearty meal

  • 5/5 Lilli S. 1 year ago on Google
    Best falafel wrap I’ve had in my life. My partner and I have come here at least twice a week every week since moving to the UK and I think we genuinely had withdrawals over the Christmas/New Year shutdown. Service is always so lovely.

  • 5/5 Grigoras Vlad (. 9 months ago on Google
    I absolutely love hummus, falafel and general levantine cuisine. I've tried it in many places around the world, and this spot is definitely in my top 5. The service was lovely, with the person at the counter helping me fully through my decision, as I ordered the large mezze box. Their baba ganoush is one of the most flavoursome I've had (reminds me of my mum's cooking!). I strongly recommend it, along with the vine leaf rolls (sarmale as we call them in Romania), and the batata harra (spiced roasted potatoes). The hummus is a bit tangy for my taste, but works really well when mixed in with the baba ganoush and eaten along the lentil bake or the spinach pasty. My only recommendation would be adding something with a spicy kick to it!

  • 5/5 Gavin D. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely the BEST falafel & baba wrap i've ever had. The pickles and chilli sauce were just enough to add the piquancy to the falafels, and they were phenomenal. I had the half I couldn't finish, cold for breakfast! Yum Yum Yum Yum Yum

  • 5/5 The Team (Acting Out Drama S. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing food and such friendly staff! Really keep us going for shows, performances, classes and our private functions. Healthy food, made with love. The owners are just THE BEST!! Genuinely lovely. We have sampled pretty much everything and recommend absolutely all of it… can’t go wrong. Best food in Edinburgh. :)
