The Bizzy Lizzy

The Bizzy Lizzy is a sandwich shop and café on Duddingston Road West, a residential thoroughfare connecting the Portobello suburb to the area around Duddingston Loch and King's Park. The shop is a daytime operation, well-known locally for its homemade curry pie — a dish that Edinburgh taxi drivers apparently rate as the best in the city — and a range of pies, filled rolls and snack items. The customer base skews towards the school across the road at lunchtime and the local residential community for morning and daytime trade. Reviews note affordability and a warm welcome alongside the pies. A no-frills neighbourhood café that has been part of the fabric of this end of Duddingston Road for years.
