With unlimited tea of your choice and many delicious bits of sandwiches and biscuits, it&#8217;s a great way to spend a rainy and cold afternoon in Edinburgh off-season. The average price for an Afternoon tea in Edinburgh is around 30 pounds for 2 people. However, if you&#8217;re on a budget (hey, check out my post about <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"15+ free things to do in Edinburgh (opens in a new tab)\" href=\"https:\/\/tripsget.com\/15-absolutely-free-things-to-do-in-edinburgh-scotland\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>15+ free things to do in Edinburgh<\/strong><\/a>) it is possible to find cheaper <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"https:\/\/www.groupon.co.uk\/vouchers\/edinburgh\/cafe\">deals on Groupon<\/a> (something like 17 pounds for two). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another affordable Afternoon tea in Edinburgh that I would recommend is Afternoon tea at the eteaket Tea Room. <strong><a rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" href=\"http:\/\/tripsget.com\/2017\/05\/eteaket-afternoon-tea-review-afternoon-tea-in-edinburgh\/\" target=\"_blank\">Read our review of the Afternoon Tea in eteaket Tea Room<\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ultimate afternoon tea ceremony in Balmoral (the fanciest hotel in Edinburgh) will cost you \u00a345 per person but you will be sitting in such a beautiful setting! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One of my favourite Afternoon Teas in Edinburgh is at the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thesignetlibrary.co.uk\/colonnades\/afternoon-tea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"Signet Library (opens in a new tab)\"><strong>Signet Library<\/strong><\/a>.

It gets dark very early in winter, so people drink a lot of coffee in Edinburgh. They are also are cosy and have plenty of sitting space. Some of my favourite coffee places in Edinburgh are Black Medicine Coffee company, Milkman and Burr &amp; Co. Many great coffee spots in Edinburgh are located close to the University of Edinburgh. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:32px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"865\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-865x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Most Instagrammable spots in Edinburgh, Scotland - tips from a local\" class=\"wp-image-4928\" srcset=\"https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-865x1024.jpg 865w, https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-507x600.jpg 507w, https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-768x910.jpg 768w, https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-440x521.jpg 440w, https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05-585x693.jpg 585w, https:\/\/tripsget.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Screen_Shot_2018-09-20_at_23.36.05.jpg 998w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 865px) 100vw, 865px\" \/><figcaption>Urban Angel<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:54px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span id=\"Have_a_cake_in_a_very_old_cafe_on_Royal_Mile\">Have a cake in a very old cafe on Royal Mile<\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:45px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If it&#8217;s raining and you&#8217;re stuck somewhere on the Royal Mile, don&#8217;t worry!
