Emma ‘The West End Garden’ Opens in the Grounds of St Mary’s Cathedral
Edinburgh’s West End has welcomed a new destination as The West End Garden — a venue combining a coffee shop, stone-baked pizzeria, and licensed bar — all set in the tranquil and historic grounds of St Mary’s Cathedral.
Opening just in time for summer, The West End Garden offers a unique outdoor social experience in the heart of the city.
Start your day with specialty coffee and pastries, catch up with friends over wine and cocktails, or grab a Pizza.
Don’t Tell Mama’s owner Themis Simaioforidis said:
“We’re thrilled to bring something special to one of Edinburgh’s most beautiful hidden corners. The West End Garden is about celebrating community, quality coffee, cocktails and Pizza, and the incredible setting within the lush, landscaped grounds of St Mary’s Episcopal Cathedral”.
The venue opens on Friday 11th July until mid-September 2025 and features a fully licensed bar serving local beers, wines, and refreshing cocktails, along with a rotating Pizzeria menu and seasonal treats, hot drinks, ice creams and weekend specials. The West End Garden are family friendly and guests are more than welcome to bring their four-legged friends along too.
