Edinburgh cafe included in best sandwiches in the world guide by Nat Geo

The owners of an Edinburgh cafe say they are 'unbelievably excited' their place has been heralded as having one of the best sandwiches in the world.

Holyrood's Moo Pie Gelato have been featured in this month's National Geographic Travel magazine for their cookie sandwich, with the guide commenting: "This popular purveyor of sweet treats on St Mary's Street is known for its creatively flavoured small batch gelato and soft serve.

"Moo Pie's cookie sandwich offerings change monthly, with previous versions having included sticky toffee soft serve topped with crushed candied pecans, sandwiched into brown butter, ginger and molasses cookies."
