About this restaurant

  • Great for brunch
  • Neighborhood gem
  • Kid-friendly
Mimi’s Bakehouse is a second-generation family business established in Edinburgh in 2010, when Michelle Phillips sold her family home to open a bakery café in Leith. We have gone on to build a local success story brand that gives people a ‘hug when they walk in the door’ as the original café has since doubled in size and the business has gained five more shops, a successful website selling cakes online and a concession at Archerfield Walled Garden. We also opened an industrial bakery in March 2020, out of which most online trade is produced for fulfilment. Mimi’s Bakehouse has become one of Edinburgh’s best-loved bakeries and an award-winning brand which is a well-known “feel good” place to visit, while remaining small enough to go the extra mile and try new things.

    Food was really lovely, however the table wasn't clean. The chairs were also dirty, had marks and stains on them. Just didnt make me feel good sitting down. The menus were A4 paper and were dirty and crumpled. I had my 4 year old with me and had to ask for the kids menu as it wasn't given. As mentioned, the food was great though.

    I’m 11 years old and saved up my pocket money for Mother’s Day coffee and cake, which I was very excited about, but unfortunately it wasn’t the best experience. When I booked on the 2ND OF MARCH I had requested a booth but when we arrived, we were seated in some uncomfortable seats next to the kitchen. When I asked if we could possibly move to a booth, we were told they were for bigger bookings only. During our time, there was an empty booth near us the whole time. When we came to order the selection was really limited and mum couldn’t get the Jamie Dodger cake she was looking forward to. Overall it felt like we were really excluded from the atmosphere and were placed in the kitchen area because we didn’t have a big enough booking. It wasn’t the special Mother’s Day experience I wanted to give to my mum.

    Although the overall lunch was lovely, I was quite disappointed in the choice of cakes…. It’s been a few years since I was last at Mimis and I was really looking forward to choosing a cake 😂 it used to be a hard decision with so many to choose from. Today there was only a Victoria sponge, a couple of cupcakes and tray bakes. So although I had a lovely lunch, I was still a bit disappointed.
