Hula is one of those spots I frequent after i've been binge eating junk food. It's literally impossible not to feel healthy here - from the quirky patio furniture to the tea towels on the walls and astroturf at the front, you basically lose three pounds just walking in the door* (*results may vary). I frequent this place most when i'm feeling a wee bit homesick. It's a little snippet of my yoga crazy, green juice chugging, home town tucked away in the Grassmarket. Like most brilliant health conscious places - they make you feel good about eating cream cheese. I'm serious, you will feel like a million bucks for choosing that smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel. Is it the healthiest thing on the menu? Heck no. But you're also having a peppermint tea and a green juice, so that cancels out any harm caused by your full fat dairy indulgence: science. This theory works with most of their menu. Delicious, healthy options with a heck ton of cheese - often melted. God bless you Hula. Don't get me wrong, if you want to go the true blue health route, it has you covered as well. From heart healthy salads to house made soup - you can find a decent meal here with or without cheese cheating. Bonus points for gluten free options. It also boasts the best juice selection i've found thus far in Edinburgh and *drum roll please* - they carry green juice! Add a scoop of frozen yogurt and have a double lunch! Hula will continue to be my go-to when I want to feel hip, healthy and/or need a quirky spot to host a lunch meeting. My only complaint? I wish they had better wifi. This gal needs to internet gush 24/7.
