The incident occurred outside Krema Bakehouse on Leith Walk as several concerned on-lookers stopped to check the person was okay.
One of those, who arrived shortly after the incident, said: "It looked pretty serious. I didn't see what happened but I turned the corner to see two ambulances covering the area where the person was hit.
"There were already a few people next to it who looked concerned. Paramedics were holding up a blue blanket for some privacy and buses were diverted as they couldn't get past. I hope the person is not seriously injured."
The Scottish Ambulance Service were approached for comment.
