So where are they in Edinburgh this year? We are on the hunt, but we need some help from you.
We usually delay eating any mince pies till 1 December, and this year has been no different. It is a kind of a ritual, but once we start we only have 31 days of the month to find the best. So do tell us what you find and we will add the suggestions in an article to be published soon.
You can tag us in your photos on Instagram or Twitter – or leave your suggestions in comments below.
Meantime here is what some of our Edinburgh eateries have on offer.
Has anybody tried any yet? Give us your review! Email editor@theedinburghreporter.co.uk, Twitter or Instagram will all work.
And of course you may have made your own – we need a recipe or two along with a couple of tips!
Good morning Leithers! We’re open from 9am to 3pm today (Saturday) for breakfast and lunch!
Speciality Coffee, all day breakfast, filled morning rolls, homemade soup, salads, sandwiches, and cake…lots of cake!
Perfect preparation for a day of Christmas shopping! #leith pic.twitter.com/uz7cTxdcyh
