The Globe Takeaway

The Globe on Broughton Street is a daytime deli and cafe rather than an evening takeaway, running from early morning to mid-afternoon seven days a week. Broughton Street has developed into one of Edinburgh's more characterful independent shopping and eating streets, and The Globe fits the neighbourhood's tone: fresh sandwiches, soups, hot pies, pastries, and coffee.

Reviewers on Yelp describe a "good choice of breads, great fillings, soups, fresh coffee, hot pies, and tasty pastries," noting that the shop goes beyond standard fare and accommodates custom sandwich requests. The bread selection is a particular selling point. Seating inside is limited, which pushes most trade toward collection. Hours run Monday to Friday from 7am, Saturday from 8am, and Sunday from 9am, closing at 4pm each day — suited to the breakfast and lunch crowd rather than the dinner trade.
