Message from Ian G Black

The Elephant House, a cozy tea and coffee house in Edinburgh, has been a favorite spot for authors like J.K. Rowling and Ian Rankin. Known as the "birthplace" of the Harry Potter series, this charming cafe offers freshly roasted coffee and a variety of delicious meals. With over 600 elephant figurines on display, it's a quirky and inviting place to relax and enjoy a cuppa. Unfortunately, due to a recent fire, The Elephant House is temporarily closed, but their online shop is still open for business. Keep an eye out for updates on when they'll be back serving up their magic brews!
