Helmi’s

Lovely little cafe. We had no idea it was here and pleasantly surprised by the food. We had the lamb Bap and halloumi wrap which were both very good. Lamb was kind of cold but still tastes good. Nice little place, lacks a bit of atmosphere but over all good food and good price too. Only thing was the pastries/cakes etc were frozen which was a shame to see. But wouldn’t put us off going back for the food itself.

Excellent child friendly patisserie.The shwarma is both unique and excellent.Croissants and scones are made in-house and are fresh. Everything is made perfectly.The cakes and patisserie are not overly sweet, as seems to be commonplace elsewhere, and the coffee is made very skillfully.Syrian coffee is much like turkish coffee, but somehow even better with the addition of cardamom and presumably rose water.The harissa pistachio dessert was very nice too.Do wish there were more syrian...read full review

This place is a hidden gem. I would travel to Bute from Edinburgh just to go here. The chicken schwarma is absolutely excellent, the coffee is great and the baklava super yum.Every staff member is super friendly and always has a nice smileHighly recommend ?
