Finally managed to visit The Square. Very nice food, I enjoyed everything and hope to visit soon again. However, it's quite small so if you want to enjoy your meal on time, it's probably better to book a table

I tried Napoleon cake – it was absolutely divine! Incredibly delicate, with the perfect balance of creamy layers and flaky pastry. You can tell it’s made with love and great attention to detail. The atmosphere in the café is lovely, and the service was excellent. I highly recommend this cake to anyone with a sweet tooth – you won’t be disappointed!

Good food, original recipes, reasonable price, and nice staff. I visit regularly and have now tested most of the menu. I have never been disappointed. My favourite Ukrainian dishes are their borscht and their apple and cinnamon pancakes. Oh and their coffee is good!

I'm so happy that we accidentally popped into The Square! It's not a big café, but the food is amazing and the view is beautiful! Everything is fresh and tasty—both Scottish and Ukrainian. My children only wanted to have breakfast here, not somewhere else. The cakes are absolutely amazing, and the pancakes with apples are so delicious that we ordered them every day! Prices are not big. Recommend to everybody!

It was such a cool thing to find a Ukrainian restaurant in Edinburgh! I felt like home. The syrniki and crepes were amazing. It was also great to see the combination of Ukrainian food with the Scottish one. The staff was super friendly and nice. Thank you!
