CityCyclingEdinburgh was launched on the 27th of October 2009 as "an experiment".
IT’S TRUE!
CCE is 15years old!
Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.
chdot: if I ran into a significant sum of money, I'd open a coffee/beer/cake/bike shop in Slateford. Apart from Loudon's in Fountainbridge, I don't think there's any sort of coffee shop wider out of the city on Slateford Road.
Thanks for the tips, gembo. A good selection of craft beer is my personal priority but appreciate good cake is also a priority. :)
Earl of Marchmont next to Laidbacks emporium now sells a range of cake bars / flapjacky type things.
Usually 2 or 3 real ales on tap plus the usual eurofizz lager and cider type stuff.
[sexist comment alert]They also have Winter Pimms and other warm drinkies served in teacups, presumably to cater for the ladies?[/sexist comment alert]
I do not like Pimms but a whisky with lemon, honey and hot water is the toddy for me. Prefer mug to teacup tho.
Anyhoo the imagined emporium needs to sell proper cake and proper beer
I am wondering if really a cake shop that then buys say Williams Brother's range of bottled beers might be able to offer what is needed ahead of a pub that maybe tries cupcakes or tray bakes etc. Cakes are possibly more an individual thing than beer. I'm not saying this is a universal fact, more a pensee for discussion?
