"social bite is a sandwich shop with a difference. their profits go to the next love and 25% of their employees were previously homeless. the greener and coworkers take care of the company, to work hard, to help others, and they care about the quality of their food. And that should them. a desire to support a good thing, people do not draw back to lunch when eating is not on scratch. I visited social bite on a sunny October afternoon to learn more about how they work, and to taste it lunch. it was a watch when I arrived in the small but beautiful looking business in the rose street. rose street is busy in the middle of edinburgh's main shopping district. social bite was also busy, people from local businesses, tourist and students looking for lunch, a cross-section of edinburgh humanity that they do not always see at a place. good food, good thing I met alan mahon in social bite on the rose street to talk about the ambitious of the company to the afternoon. I came hungry, a good decision as it turned out. social bite has recently changed the menu. they want to compete with the great names high street sandwich places, like pret a manger and eat. for this purpose they worked with mike mathieson, michelin with chef chef and adviser michel roux to design a fresh and tasty menu. it is varied, interesting and made on the ground. the pulled boar battle was great, but I was particularly impressed by the avocado wrap, a favorite with their customers as well as me. I tried the sandwich des pflugmanns with something contempt: I am not a fan of cheese sandwiches or the vinegar-treated spice with which they are normally filled. I don't need to worry: strong ripe cheddar was supported by a sweet pear chutney that was rich, not excessive. I really enjoyed it. it wasn't about sandwiches. the suppers of the day were drowned, ham and mushrooms and thymian. both looked great and I slept with guasto in the mushroom soup. it was perfect. smooth, warm, with a deep mushroom aroma. it was a suppe that wraps around you and gives you a hug. to finish my meal, I had a caffeine platter. Before I go, I've penetrated what else was on the menu. there are many interesting sandwiches, salads, wraps and even noodles in the offer. I was sent with a falafel salat to home, with humus, feta, olive and green leaves. there is also a vegan falafel wrap that I liked to see and a pastrami sandwich that looked really good. growing social bite is an ambitious business that wants to grow. their ultimate goal is to have hundreds of shops in the UK and to donate millions of pfunds to worthy causes. it will need time and hard work to get there, but the growth begins now. before the end of the year, social bite will have a new shop at shandwick place in edinburgh and another in glasgow. with each shop will get more previous homeless work, training and experience that will help them stay out of the no-address-no-job-no-home cycle. homelessness is one of the causes that social assistance in this country is supported by its employment policy and donate to shelter. other causes are the Grameen eye clinic in bangladesch and the microloan foundation in malawi and sambia. supended coffee social bite offers “suspended coffee”, a scheme that lets visitors buy a coffee or something else from the menu and makes their consumption worse on someone else. it is a possibility to give people they need to eat and give hot drinks, but they cannot afford."

Oh, God. I feel like a bad person who gives only two stars. please don't crucify me for giving me nothing more than five stars.

I think social bite is a great idea in practice. eating is a good quality, locally (as far as I know) and the business goes to local charity.

while we were looking for a place to eat, social bite has caught our attention; we decided to stop here for snacks and coffee a lunch hour in the week. social.

The restaurant offers a social hour from 8 to 9 specifically for the homeless, before opening to the public. The atmosphere is welcoming, with friendly faces and beautiful people. Their house-made brownies are my personal favorite. From 4 to 4:30, they also provide meals for the homeless.

Delicious homemade food, restaurant quality! I work in a restaurant and the soup I tried here was better than a lot I’ve had before! The staff are friendly warm and welcoming! This is a little hidden gem! And to top it off they feed the homeless daily! So come here! Put your money into a company that really cares!

Really tasty and delicious food. Lovely staff. And who couldn't decide to choose this place as you are helping people in need. I often buy and extra something for people who need it. You pay for some food or a drink and the receipt goes into a box for someone who cant afford it to receive a well deserved sandwich or soup or drink. Great idea and why can't there be more like this.

Not only is the staff beautiful and courteous (we were there to film a small documentary for the college and stayed for lunch after), but they are also doing great things. The food, drinks, and service are all excellent, and I especially appreciate their pay it forward system. If you're looking for a delicious meal and want to support a wonderful cause working to end homelessness in Edinburgh, look no further. The cheese and bean quesadillas are a must-try, and the latte is lovely. My friends also enjoyed their meals (meatball panini, spectacle sandwich, and tikka and wobbles bahji sandwich).
