    Were can you get pekoe tea, artisan roast coffee and artisan cheesecake all in one place!? HERE!  Thats a winner in my book!  We stopped in for cake and coffee/tea. I really liked my cake it was tasty and satisfying and loved my latte!  My hubby got some cheesecake and some pekoe tea!  Its like the perfect place for us since he loves tea and I love coffee!

    The food others were eating just looked meh... loved the art on the walls and the servers were very friendly!  Great place for tea/coffee and cake/cheesecake!

    Poor, no warmth or atmosphere, needs more personality and there is quite a lot of space not being used giving it a cold airy vibe. Food was dry and bland, staff very pleasant though but I would give this one a miss, your missing anything.

    On a street full of coffee shops, this little place doesn't really stand out, that is unless you have a gluten problem. If you are trying to avoid gluten it can't recommend it enough. A great selection of gluten free goodies, and the coffee is fair trade.

    Well worth checking out :) YUM

    Cafe Blush has a number of things going for it. They serve Pekoe Tea... always a plus in my book. They serve Artisan Roast coffee... I don't drink coffee, but everyone loves Artisan Roast. And they serve Artisan Cheesecakes... which I got to try here for the first time and absolutely loved it. I had the millionaire cheesecake, which had caramel on top with chocolate pieces in the cheesecake... much better than I am making it sound and I highly recommend it.

    The cafe is well presented with nice art on the wall and some really cool travel mugs for sale. The decor is very pink, which seems to go along with the name. And it's a good place for people watching on Morningside Road.

    Although we only had tea and cakes here, we did see some of the sandwiches that other folks ordered (all of the other customers were decades older than us). The sandwiches looked rather unexciting and I'm pretty sure they were made on basic store-bought brown or white bread, much like you could get at any of a number of cafes.

    If you're in Morningside and not wanting to walk all the way to Bruntsfield for Artisan Roast, Artisan Cheesecakes or to Tollcross for Pekoe, then by all means you should stop here. It would be worth your visit.

    Cafe blush. Saturday. April 4 2015 2.30-3.50 pm

    Sadly I am now planning possibly never to return here. A friend and have been coming for years. Maybe in a year I'll try again.

    No eye contact with customers. It's chronic. It's awful. Didn't see staff clear away dishes whilst customers still there. You know it is awful to me.... To rise from a table that dirty dishes sit. I watched. The staff don't do it. Maybe the time of day 2.30pm. I never had complaints et 11.15 time I used to go when on my way to horse fields...... I think the afternoon staff are lack.

    So I've sought out a new cafe for my approx ever 4 week lunch with my friend.

    Shame.....

    Ps. The slavic waitress was so curt and annoyed. Had to ask to remove cups at end of stay.... To be fair maybe I was narckie too. Still..... And spooky annoyed when I asked for the code for wifi.

    To people not realise customers keep them in a job. :(

    Onwards and upwards.

    I have great praise for the owner who I think is Canadian?
