I make a beeline for this cafe every time I'm in Perth. The staff are lovely, food is amazing, seats are comfy and the cakes are all homemade.. what's not to love?!

I received a friendly welcome in this cosy café. There is a wide range of food and drinks. It is particularly pleasing that there is a vegan version of the English breakfast (certainly in a Scottish interpretation with haggis and aubergine, but everything was very good). The service was very quick and attentive. I will definitely come here again on my next visit to Perth.

Just enjoyed a breakfast bacon and egg roll with pot of tea. Up there with the best ever such delights. Quick any friendly service, comfortable seats, calm environment. What’s not to like! And all for £10!!

It was the first time I have been to the Ginger cafè. Nice clean and tidy place, comfortable seats, clean toilet, friendly staff. The cakes were amazing (lovely home baked cakes). The coffee blend they are using was absolutely tailored to my taste. It was great. I had a panini (ham and cheese) and never have I ever had a panini so lovely. It was a lot of filling and not greedy with the ham. The cheese which I loved the most was not not Cheddar (can't stand that stuff in a panini). The portion was huge and absolutely delicious. I will definitely go back there and try some of their other foods. The sound and sandwiches looked amazing too. Please give it a shot and let us know what your experience was like.

Absolutely love Ginger cafe. Owner and staff lovely. Food good, and breakfast today was no exception. It was perfection on a plate. If you haven't visited here, it's a must.l!!! Thank you ladies xx

We loved our brunch at Ginger Cafe! I was served some of the best pancakes I’ve ever had, just deliciously fluffy and I loved how fresh they were. My boyfriend enjoyed his full Scottish too. They were happy to made small changes to my order which I appreciated, and the service was friendly and attentive. The vibe of the cafe is just my sort of thing, very local and cosy. some of the chairs and menus have seen better days, but I’d still go back in a heartbeat (in fact I’m tempted to go again tomorrow).

We’ve wandered by on a whim for lunch and came back few days later for a sweet treat and a drink. Both times the staff has been absolutely lovely, accommodating and welcoming. The food was so nice, the homemade lemon cake will be my craving for a while. It’s a small, cozy place that I will be recommending for sure

My favourite place for breakfast. Lovely friendly staff. Always fresh food, great coffee and beautiful cakes. My favourite is the chilli frankfurter, best in town!
