Cafe Coast in Aberdeen City

Pedí una hamburguesa vino rápidamente sabía muy bien definitivamente volviendo personal muy agradable estado aquí antes, así que volveremos

Asistí a un curso de capacitación aquí y las instalaciones eran muy buenas. Actual y fácil de usar. El almuerzo buffet fue lo más destacado. Los bocadillos eran muy frescos y sabrosos. Una mezcla de pan, pan francés y envolturas estaban disponibles. Había una variedad de rellenos tanto de carne como vegetarianos. Ambos fueron abundantes y excelentes. También tenemos una sopa de champiñones que era muy sabrosa. Todo el lugar estaba impecablemente limpio, incluidos los baños. Estaría muy feliz de visitar nuevamente. El personal fue muy servicial y nos dio una cálida bienvenida.

Gran recepción de los camareros. Excelentes opciones de desayuno con ingredientes de calidad utilizados. El té también es muy bueno. Hay muchas opciones de bebidas calientes y frías, los alrededores son agradables y limpios.

ingredientes frescos bien cocinados bien servidos por personal muy agradable precio justo en un entorno confortable

Solía ​​comer mucho aquí mientras trabajaba en el edificio, pero había dejado ese trabajo en el que no había estado durante meses. Solo tomé una taza de té de hierbas, era solo un descanso para el té, pero la bienvenida fue tan amable como todos y el té de bayas era bueno y fuerte. Hará un punto de regresar para el almuerzo, o incluso mejor té de la tarde pronto.

Really nice atmosphere (clean and tidy) not too busy Great breakfast (not greasy) served all day at great prices Been there 3 times and it has been great every time

I took my teenage granddaughter for breakfast this Sunday morning and we decided to be adventurous and ordered the pancake with fresh fruit and maple syrup dish. We were disappointed to find there was one strawberry, a few grapes and a few slices of apple sandwiched between the pancake sitting on top of a dish of watery maple syrup. The pancakes were not freshly made and the maple syrup was thin and watery. The chef really needs to revisit this dish and put more effort into this. There should of been a variety of fresh fruit with lovely freshly made pancakes, made to order so you can taste and smell the freshness. The maple syrup should be served separately in a jar or jug also with some fresh cream or yoghurt. When I explained to the waitress she was not interested in what I had to say and told us the pancakes were freshly made. They did taste like freshly made pancakes, let alone the fresh fruit was very basic and sparse. As you can see from the photo, there was no imagination put into this dish whatsoever. The two portions cost me just under £14 - i guess you know why I was disappointed as for that price I was expecting value and quality. I was disappointed as I had read so many positive reviews for this cafe. Perhaps we made the wrong choice 🙄

Stopped here for a coffee. Service was fast and courteous. The coffee was good, and the carrot cake was nice and moist. Look forward to my next visit.

Always nice here, I’ve never had a bad meal and the service is always good, keep up the good work 👍

Popped in for lunch we ordered the minestrone soup it was lovely. Just the job for a cold winters day. Plenty of assorted vegetables in it, hot but not so hot you couldn't eat it. Really fresh. We have eaten here on various occasions, never disappointed always good value for money.

We went with a group of friends for the Christmas menu. The service was excellent. The food was very good, despite some minor reservations, and I would recommend a visit. We will be back again.

My team and I had lunch yesterday and it was great. The varied menu means everyone gets what they want and it all looked super. I had the chicken and avocado salad which is lovely and very filling. Staff are polite and friendly and service was pretty quick despite the cafe being full. So good I came back today!

I called in here for some lunch. The daily specials were steak pie or Scotch eggs. Both sounded good, but I opted for a baked potato with beans and cheese. It was pleasant enough, served with some salad on the side and a good helping of beans, maybe not so much cheese as I would like. There was nothing wrong with it, but I have had better elsewhere. Maybe I should have gone for an all day breakfast, which I saw someone else have, and it looked great. However I noticed several tables booked by people who had ordered afternoon tea, and that looked amazing, with a big cake stand in the middle of the table overflowing with goodies. There's no way I would be able to eat all that, but I would love to try. The selection of cakes and tray bakes behind the counter looked appealing too. That may be my next visit. The ambience of the place is very pleasant and staff were up to standard.

I have just had a great evening with friends enjoying an excellent buffet at this venue. Many thanks to Nina and her team at Cafe Coast who opened up 8.30pm till late for our private party. The excellent buffet included both hot and cold food, the bruschetta was particularly tasty. I have no hesitation in recommending this venue for a celebration, it is central with private parking, lovely food and the staff are very cooperative, nothing was too much trouble.

Treated by my best friend to afternoon tea here yesterday. Sandwich choice very good indeed, piping hot scones with jam, clotted cream & fresh berries, & a diverse selection of mini cakes. Small portions of dressed salad on the sandwich tier was a nice touch. Service friendly & efficient. My only slight complaint is coffee was extremely strong & slightly bitter.

Tenía un estupendo té con mis padres. Elegí el sNdwich de su elección, un bollo dulce caliente con mermelada y nata espesa, y un montón de pequeñas tartas sabrosas para probar. Incapaz de todo, así que conseguimos un eT fuerte para tomar la casa pasteles. Vale la pena una visita para el almuerzo o el té de la tarde.

Hemos visitado costa café muchas veces a lo largo de los años y disfrutamos de la buena comida y buen servicio. Las dos últimas visitas han sido pobres con servicio dejando mucho que desear y la comida muy normal. Hoy tuvimos que pedir cubiertos cuando nuestra comida llegó finalmente y mantequilla para las tostadas. Mi taza sucia té tenía que ser cambiado y tuvimos que pedir las servilletas. La comida estaba bien, apenas tibia y no al nivel de visitas anteriores. Con la excepción de un miembro masculino del personal el personal apenas se rompió una sonrisa o mostró ningún interés en servir a los clientes. El lugar ha sido ocupado, podría haber entendido, sin embargo este no fue el caso. Venga Cafe costa se puede hacer mejor.

Superb food in very congenital surroundings with friendly and helpful staff. Great place to relax any time of the day.

Popped in for a bacon roll and a coffee after a business meeting in the area.The waiter was friendly.Bacon roll was delicious

We had macaroni cheese, which was served with sweet potato chips and a salad. The macaroni had a lovely chees sauce, the chips were beautifully crisp.The helpings would have been more than enough for a dinner.

Friendly staff seated us when we arrived for Sunday brunch. Something on the menu for everyone, kids and adults , from pancakes to full English breakfast.food good and staff very helpful

We go with friends every year at this time for a Christmas lunch. Normally the food is excellent but this time it was disappointing. The starters and sweets were fine but the main courses were of poor quality. I had the turkey and found the vegetables to be over cooked and the turkey came in rectangular slabs and a bit dry. The service was fine although the waitresses got the wine order wrong initially. We will still go back next year and hopefully it will be back to it's usual standard.

The service was rubbish and slowThe food was nice It felt really cramped We had to wait about 10 minutes maybe even more before we got our food

Ok is a rubbish title for a review but I genuinely couldn't sum up the visit with anything else. We stopped to have lunch whilst shopping with our infant son. The car park is too small in the first instance which to be fair is not the venues issue esp in Aberdeen however a large number of the spaces were either blocked off or reserved which didn't help. The greeting and service when we arrived was very average. I wouldn't class it as friendly or warm but they did get the job done in terms of seating us quickly and taking our order. We weren't explained the specials just told to look at the board which was a bit odd. The menu is good for lunch or breakfast. Basic choices but enough for a simple meal. The food did take longer that I would have thought to arrive given it wasn't overly busy but still in reasonable "not worthy of a moan" territory. Food was ok. Nothing to shout about. Good enough sized portions. I don't think I'll be back. It just lacks something, not sure what.

Popped in for a lunch time snack and had a lovely bowl of soup and other family members had poached eggs on toast and a baked potato with chilli and all very flavoursome will be back soon

Go here every so often for their small breakfast. It's freshly cooked and usually very good. My daughter also recommends the bacon, pancake, maple stack. There is parking, staff are friendly and surroundings clean and pleasant. Only downside is it's not really on the coast but up the road a bit so no sea views.

A small cafe, restaurant. The service was slow and we expected the food to be hot as there was no one else being served but it was only warm and the beans were cold.

Stopped here for lunch with my elderly Mum who uses a wheelchair. We were made so welcome and the staff were very helpful. We each had the best Mac and cheese and accommodated mums wish for a smaller portion as her appetite not so good these days and this also reflected in the bill. Would highly recommend and we will be back.

It was our first visit here but it won't be our last. It was easy to find and there were plenty of spaces in the car park. The café itself it lovely, it has a peaceful, friendly atmosphere.We had the afternoon tea which was excellent value for money (£11.95pp) and anything you don't manage is given to you in a box to take home. We all chose different sandwiches, I have to say I've had nicer brown bread, but the white was very soft and fresh, they all had plenty of filling and a lovely wee salad at the side.The scones were among the best I've ever eaten. Freshly made on the premises everyday, they were light and tasty, they also came with a generous pot of cream and jam.The cakes were excellent, there was a good selection and they all tasted really good, the lemon meringue tarts were really different and I could of happily eaten them all if I wasn't so full from sandwiches and scones!The service was faultless, warm and friendly and attentive without being overly fussy and the whole place was spotlessly clean.I've rated this four out of five, but it's so nearly a five. To get that extra mark I would have better bread and make individual mini cakes instead of small slices of larger ones. That said I cant wait to go back and try some of their other large cakes that were on display, all made on the premises and they all looked amazing.

Went to Cafe Coast. 3 adults 4 young children and they made us very welcome. All had sandwiches, catering well for the children. Service was good. Value for money.

Came in with some friends today, food was excellent, soup was lovely and the staff were friendly and helpful. It was a nice busy atmosphere everything was well presented and clean, we will definitely be returning, would highly recommend this cafe *****

I worked in this building for a year and often ate at the cafe.It was good, quick food and good value for money.It was lovely on nice days when you could eat outside even if it was next to a busy road.The staff were always available, friendly and helpful.

Welcomed by friendly waiter, cooked breakfast served hot and well presented. Coffee and tea good. Pleasant atmosphere .

We had a lovely lunch here a couple of weeks ago and were so lucky to get a window seat when the Jazz festival was going on just outside. The tomato and lentil soup was amazing and the sandwich was delicious. Prices are reasonable and I would definitely return.

I've been to cafe coast many times over the years and it never fails to impress. The portion sizes are very generous and all the food is very tasty. The staff are also very attentive and polite and the restaurant is incredibly well priced! They've recently started a burger night on a Thursday which are also incredible value for money! £12.50 for a burger, side and beverage! I would highly recommend!

After previous review of another cafe . We went here. What a joy seated by friendly staff. Food served in a reasonable time. FOOD was enjoyable and would visit again

Was looking for some where to have a bit breakfast before making the trip home. After taking a wrong turn decided to eat here. Well what a charm really nice staff and a good menu and the full breakfast was just what I needed for the drive home. If your ever in Aberdeen and need a nice quick snack or meal would recommend this little place

Second tasting of the home made gourmet burgers and only one word yum . Great idea and sides are great to , service fantastic and with a smile. Next week back again for a team tea . Definitely recommend

Went to try out their new burger night, now held every Thursday. Wasn't disappointed, lovely juicy (not greasy) burger, topped with maple bacon, cheese and caramelised onions in a brioche bun, side of sweet potato fries. So tasty :) Now planning the next trip to try one of their other burgers! Good service and clean surroundings. Sorry no pictures, had scoffed the lot before I thought to take some...ooops!

I visit this place every thursday for burger night and never was dissapointed.service is excellent and burgers are best what I tried in aberdeen. That's must visit place!!!

Me and my boyfriend and a few friends went to have our tea at the Cafe Coast burger night where you can get a gourmet home made burger with various toppings and a glass of wine/bottle of beer for only £12.50. Amazing value for money and the burgers are the best I've had! I had the pulled pork burger with sweet potato fries - beef burger with pulled pork in the centre and on the top, really nice and tender. I am still craving the sweet potato fries! You can't beat homemade! Loved it

Went for Burns Supper and was impressed again - friendly atmosphere with great food, amazing service and very reasonable prices. Would definitely come back again!

Ten of us went there for a Christmas lunch. Food, service and surroundings were excellent. The only quibble I had was with my sweet, sticky toffee pudding. It was a bit dry and served with mint chocolate ice cream which I dislike. Nevertheless I would recommend this restaurant got a lunch.

Popped in for a scone and coffee. The scones were fresh out the oven, very tasty and the coffee was lovely too. All served with a smile :)

It is easy to overlook this due to location but there is a small car park. The service was excellent and the freshly cooked food could not be faulted. My parents really enjoyed their fish and chips and my husband and I thought the burgers were superb. Special mention for the Venison Burger with Brie and Cranberry. Also serve a great cup of coffee here.

Been here several times, lunch and early dinner. Always had excellent service - fast, friendly and efficient. Good menu choice, food is tasty and well presented.Limited parking, though we have always got a place. Fair prices

Visited with my other half today for lunch. Our server was Anthony he was so polite and he went all the way to make sure we were seen to when we needed attention. Me being the clutz I am dropped the lid to my wraps for my fajitas (which was absolutely gorgeous I must add) he came straight over and picked it up and told me not to worry. My other half had a chicken breast with cheese, bacon and BBQ sauce and he said it was beautiful! Definitely get what you pay for in coast 2 coast!

Hello,we had final meeting in this cafe with our Course members and it was good choice. Surprisingly on Thursday morning 10 am was very busy and parking was full. Inside was a bit cold but we didn't mind as full breakfast was served within 20 minutes after our arrival - 7 people and everyone had some little requests - the staff keeping well. Coffe and Tea was lovely too. The plate didn't look that big and I was a bit disappointed but only lasted 5 minutes. After I are everything i was full up and had good feeling that full breakfast was good choice. but remember. At full breakfast the egg is not on menu but everybody gets what wants. happy days

Great little family friendly cafe/resturant.Drop in for their Bacon & Maple syrup pancake stacks.Always willing and helpful staff.

Had another great time at Cafe Coast last month. A private function this time and the food, drinks and service were all excellent. Very highly recommended

I find Aberdeen a nightmare, we travel through by car to see my son who is at Uni here and there are plenty cafes etc but you can never park beside them , well you can here, although limited spaces, we always get one,Anyway the café is nice and relaxed, the staff friendly and the food is fab, today was my third visit and I had excellent coffee and cake and my son had a chocolate sundae , we will stick with visiting this café on our monthly visits as its easy, relaxing, good value and good food,

Im a regular at this lovely little cafe. I usually opt for the full breakfast as it's always delicious. I visited this Sunday and found out that they now do a Sunday roast. This weeks was roast pork, root vegetables, roast potatoes & chutney... Delicious! I had a portion of homemade pancakes with ice cream and fruit afterwards too. Really good food and the service was great too! It was really busy over lunch and staff remained attentive and friendly

Cafe Coast is ideal for those walking down to Aberdeen beach by way of the Beach Boulevard. This is significant in my opinion, as the quality of the cafe type food at the beach itself can be very hit or miss. Cafe Coast may not be top of of my favorites list but it is always clean, efficient, and reliable produces good quality food in a friendly environment. It also gets recognition for its support of local charities.

I recently attended an evening event at Cafe Coast at which a special Tapas menu was on offer to guests.The food was absolutely terrific with a range of delicious Tapas dishes - including Calimari, pulled pork sliders, Patatas Bravas, Haggis Bon Bons and black pudding Scotch eggs on offer.Service was, as ever, very pleasant and efficient and at just £5 a plate the food was real value for money.I usually only visit Cafe Coast at a lunchtime so it was lovely to see it set-up for evening dining and be able to taste the chef's new dishes.Look forward to returning to another evening event soon.

Here we are in this nice cafe located all not too far away from the beach. We went for breakfast and were delighted by the nice atmosphere, the very friendly service of the personnel rounded up the very first good impression. So we go for the big Scottish breakfast...and we got it!!!!! Big, tasty, GOOD, and at a very reasonable price. This place will be on my list in any future travel to Aberdeen!!!

Love this place, good food, great service and relaxed atmosphere. Fresh bakes and fresh bread along with amazing ice cream. Free parking also helps. A hidden gem that is becoming more popular as people realise what great value for money it is.

Along with two friends I very much enjoyed the range and quality of lunch options. My friend's Panini and Soup choice included courgette and bacon soup, which she found exceptional, while my fish cake with poached egg made for a delightful light mid-day dish. Service was slow and not attentive but the venue is open and light and parking was easily available today, though sometimes more restricted - so many positives.

I was invited for a launch night to try the new menu and have a look around the conference rooms, the place was very nice, clean and well presented and the food was excellent. Definitely worth going for any event or even just dinner!

Cafe Coast is a little gem amongst the myriad of eateries in Aberdeen and if you want a delicious yet inexpensive medal then you should definitely check this place out. We arrived as a party of ten and the waiting staff gave us plenty of time to read through the short but interesting menu. My wife ordered the fishcake with wilted spinach and poached eggs whereas I plumped for the haggis topped venison burger accompanied by crunchy wedges, salad and a beautiful creamy coleslaw. The food did take a good half an hour to arrive but it was worth the wait. The burger was rich, juicy and full of flavour. The haggis was spicy which is exactly how I like it but it was the wedges that stole the show. They were crispy to the point of almost being considered as burnt. They had been cooked in their skins which was a welcome touch and very tasty with little hints of rosemary. My wife's dish was fantastic although to be fair it didn't look anywhere near as good as it tasted. First off the bat it was big, packed full of fish and soft, creamed mash with a satisfying crunchy breadcrumb. The wilted spinach and two soft poached eggs finished the dish of perfectly. We will visit cafe Coast again next time we find ourselves in Aberdeen as the food is tasty, unpretentious and reasonably priced. What more could you ask for?5 out of 5

Great welcome, clean quick and efficient service. Nice to get what you order cooked for you as you wait.

We had been here several years for a group Christmas meal and been impressed at the personal attention and value for money. Sadly this year was a completely different experience. The staff seemed unprepared for a large group and the food was awful. We were not all served at once, and food was either cold, or not good for other reasons eg the pudding was microwaved to extinction. I am sorry to be negative after previous good experiences and the ethos of the restaurant, but this past experience means I won't return.

popped in for a spot of lunch.the food top quality.the cooking perfect.never had any problems with the food.amazing keep up the good work.

Working nearby, I often come here for lunch. Varied menu - snack/light lunch or something more substantial on offer. I've never had to wait long to be served and served with a smile. Profits go to charity.

Quite often take a trip to Cafe Coast, mostly on a Sunday to enjoy the all day breakfast and yesterday was no exception. I have to say really surprised by some of the reviews I have read (to the point I double checked it was the same place!) Have genuinely never had any issues with the service, quite the opposite! Friendly and accommodating is all I've ever experienced. The food is really good and great value for money. Personally, I have not had problems when asking to change items (sometimes I swap sausage for more bacon). It's hard to find a good all day breakfast in Aberdeen, far be it for £6.10. As It's a social enterprise it's for a great cause too, but would be back regardless.

Had a fantastic day at cafe coast private hire room for my daughters baby shower yesterday . The food afternoon tea with lots of lovely savoury extras was delicious and the mini cakes and scones awesome ,we were able to decorate the room to what we wanted . Nothing was a problem and staff were so helpfu. Baby's first birthday be next . Thank you for making this so special

Went in for Lunch and was pleasantly surprised by the speed and ease of service. I ordered from the main menu i had the steak burger which was excellent and my sister had the all day breakfast. The food was tasty and there was plenty of it. Its really handy as there is also parking available.

Absolutely love this place. It's a fine change from the chain restaurants that have over taken the beach. The food is delicious and fantastic value for money. Great portion sizes and plenty of options on the menu. I have visited several times and am particularly fond of the high tea. The menu was recently changed for high tea, it was fab before but now it's AMAZING! It's also a fantastic place to take children as the wee ones are well catered for and made to feel very welcome. Overall a great wee place, great food and great service.

Being a regular here I liked the high tea on a Sunday, but went on the 3rd of may only to discover the menu had changed and not for the better. I was disappointed with the food and if the menu stays as it is I won't be the regular customer I have been,

Had an amazing high tea at Cafe Coast tonight. Delicious homemade meatballs and haggis bon bon's. These were followed by some hand made steak burgers. Really enjoyed the food and the service was great. Have visited for coffee before and will definitely be back again for food. Looking forward to trying out their upcoming evening events. Keep up the good work guys

This was my first time in Cafe Coast - we thought we'd would try somewhere different for a change and glad we did. What a really nice lunch we had, the Chilli tacos were to die for. There was plenty of chilli, rice, cheese and sour cream, really good sized portions and great prices too. The waiter was really friendly and attentive. Looking forward to going back again, thanks!

Went to cafe coast for quick lunch and wasn't disappointed. Steak sandwich and sticky toffee were amazing and staff was very helpfully. Would definitely be back

A most excellent high tea with a great menu including three vegetarian options (great for me!) served promptly with huge potions, well presented and tasted delicious. Copious amounts of tea and coffee then warm pancakes, scones & cake. Would recommend to anyone!

Often pop in to Cafe Coast of a lunchtime for a quick bite to eat. The daily soup special with home-baked warm bread is always great with the sweet potato, chilli and coconut and the lentil and vegetable particular favourites of mine.Very reasonably priced and service friendly and efficient.Have heard good things about the breakfasts on offer here too so plan to check this out soon.

I have been to Cafe Coast a number of times and have always enjoyed the food. Alway's reasonably priced, great location outside of town with free parking. Staff are always really friendly and willing to help.

Just had lunch at this fantastic cafe on the Beach Boulevard. Great food, excellent servie and amazing value for money. Just to add icing to the cake I found out that all the profits go the Cafe's charity. Fantastic!!

Needed a quick mid morning snack so popped into Cafe Coast for a scone and a coffee. There was a good choice including cheese, fruit and plain and I plumped for a giant cheese one. It was really tasty and very good value, especially given the size of it!Would recommend a visit - I'll be back for lunch next time.

Went here on Sunday just for a quick bite. Food was really delicious, good value for money. Lovely atmosphere, so was service. Would come back!

I had lunch at Cafe Coast recently and enjoyed one of the best bowls of soup I have had in a long time. The menu is great value for money and the coffee and cakes are fantastic! The quality of the food and value for money is made even more attractive by the fact that the cafe is run by a local charity that supports people with learning disabilities.I will definitely be returning!

Popped into this nice cafe for a coffee and a cake. Staff very friendly and coffee very nice. Look forward to returning and trying out the full menu

Having read reviews of the hood breakfast here came on a cold Saturday morning for breakfast, chose the all day with extra one for a pound (bargain) deal, waitress serving us was a Larger Eastern European girl with zero skills in customer service, informed her I didn't like eggs so would like my breakfast without them to be replied with a so they come like that take it or not, when good arrived some 45 minutes later ( only four other tables in cafe at this time) cut into sausages to find them undercooked yet bacon burnt to a crisp, decided not to wait for another one and was informed couldn't anyway as table was needed for Christmas function, overall staff choose to stand behind counter speaking amogst themselves rather that serving customers, I go to the bread makers regularly and like supporting local charities but this ones making zero effort for customer care, no stars

If you like great service and top quality food head to here. The full Scottish Breakafast is wonderful.

Went for our Sunday breakfast and weren't disappointed. We have been here on numerous occasions for breakfast and it's always first class. Food is always so tasty and reasonably priced. Service is usually first class but there was an issue today of the blonde haired supervisor being far too interested in 'chatting' with one of her colleagues rather than attending to customers. One lovely little girl was running around trying to do everything while these two chatted away. Hats off to her. Saying this we would definitely recommend here for food and on our previous visits the service has been second to none.

This cafe is consistent with its good food at all times of the day. The staff are attentive but not over powering. We sat for ages catching up with each other and no one asked us to leave, just provided more drinks. Fantastic - Thanks

I always forget that this place exists, prompted by our spree book, my Gran & I headed down for an early lunch.It was quite busy but all the waiting staff were pleasant & welcoming, nothing was too much trouble.The food was about average, nothing to get excited about it but tasty & filling all the same.As is a common theme in Aberdeen, I wish they had more selection for vegetarians/Vegans.

Every week I meet my friends here. Good service, food and price. Have had pensioners Christmas lunch there twice now and about to book again.

Amazing cafe within touching distance of the city and the beach. Staff were keen to please and very accomadating to a dietary issue. Had the all day breakfast which was great. Will be returning often

Cafe Coast is a hidden gem in the Granite city on the way to the beach, i stopped in for breakfast a great deal buy one get a second for £1.00 This was a traditional cooked breakfast extremely tasty and not swimming in grease only disappointment was they don't do fried bread but you do get toast!The staff always have a cheerful disposition and polite as i now make this a regular stop on Sunday mornings.

This is the 2nd time we have had lunch here and have been impressed on both occasions. It's very child friendly and great to find toddler booster chairs too. I visited with my mother and my two year old. As soon as we sat down at the table, the waitress came over with crayons and the children's menu which also acts as a colouring in sheet and kept my little boy amused. There is a good choice on the menu and the prices are reasonable by Aberdeen standards. Service was very quick indeed and no compromise on food quality. Portions are quite large and therefore my mother took some of her sandwiches home in a napkin as she just couldn't finish everything! The staff are very friendly and the lovely ladies at reception gave my little boy some bubbles as we left which I thought was a really lovely gesture. We will certainly return and I believe some of the other critical reviews are unjustified.

I was very impressed with the high tea I expected sandwiches scones the usual, but no there was a selection of main course including omelettes macaroni cheese, fish and chips, I have chicken fillets huge plateful including chips, then toast and tea followed by chocolate krispies, scones and pancakes, we were not able to eat everything so what we didn't eat we were allowed to take home, and all for under £10 each amazing value and friendly service!

A great place to meet friends for a bite to eat at lunchtime. Generous portions and very reasonable prices.

Went yesterday,approached the counter and I could not make out what the waitress was saying.At the third attempt I assumed she was telling me to take a seat it was table service .On my way to my seat saw her make a face (in my opinion she was very annoyed with me)then she continued to laugh and gesture with her work mate I think most probably about myself .Very disappointed !

We have visited cafe coast several times now because as my 13 year old says" the food is awesome" .The breakfasts really are excellent the pancake stack is his favorite .The service is fast and friendly and the prices are very reasonable keep up the good work

Food is great , location is easy for access and portions are superbAs this is run by a charity a nice meal and a good cause you can't go wrong

Went for lunch on Sunday with two young kids. The waitress came quickly with kids crayon and colouring paper. Food came quickly and were yummy at good prices. Parking is convenient especially if you don't want to walk long distance in the rain. Will come back again.

Having had lunch and snacks here previously we decided to try the High Tea. It was both delicious and excellent value. The prices range from £8.95 to £11.95 depending on which main course you choose and this includes tea/ coffee, toast, main course, pancakes, scones and cakes. The battered fish and chips was superb and I thoroughly enjoyed the macaroni cheese. The helpings were generous too with chips or baked potato as an accompaniment to each main course. The young staff were efficient and pleasant. A nice start to a Saturday evening.

It's been a while since I've been here but had a breakfast business meeting here this week. Pleasant atmosphere, quick service and a smile and breakfast roll and latte were spot on. Always enjoyed my lunches here in the past. Would recommend. Parking outside which is great for business people who drive a big truck.

Went to Cafe Coast this morning with an 'itison' deal voucher for breakfast for 2. Had reserved a table for 3, having been informed it would be OK for 2 of our party to use the voucher and then pay for the 3rd persons order. My sister & I ordered our breakfasts as per the deal and my mother, who is in her 80's and has a smaller appetite, ordered from the individual items on the menu (bacon, egg & toast). When the food arrived, the waiter (a somewhat pleasant term for him given his subsequent attitude) told us my mothers food had been accidentally added to my sister's plate (now comes the good bit!..) and that she would have to eat her own items from my sister's plate in consequence!!! After informing the waiter (a-hem) this was not a suitable option for my mother (i.e. leaning across a table and eating her own meal from another person's plate) he did finally go and remove my mothers breakfast from my sisters plate and (hallelujah, what luxury!) my mother got a plate all to herself to eat from!!! On a positive note, the food was good & so we managed to overlook the poorly trained waiter's understanding of 'normal' eating habits. However, things took a down turn again when we wished to pay the bill. After waiting for what seemed an eternity from requesting the bill, we got billed for all the food, inc. that which had been pre-paid by the itison voucher (note, we handed over the voucher when we placed our order). In trying to explain this to the waitress/cashier, she appeared to have no idea that Cafe Coast are running an itison deal and it was only by myself (!) finding our voucher lying beside the till that she seemed to accept 2 of the meals had already been paid for in advance. She then said she would be required to charge me for another 'full' breakfast on the basis of my mother's order (1 (half) slice of bacon, 1 egg & toast - all with individual prices on the menu). I told her this was ridiculous / not as per menu prices and as the 'discussion' had now become a bit heated, 'original-waiter-still-needs-to-be-trained-guy' re-appeared to (believe it or not!!) sort things out! He did some button-pressing on the till and although I still do not know if I was charged correctly or not, went along with what he said & paid, just to get out of the place! To (what could have been) their credit, I did get an apology for that which had taken place (which they said was due to their being busy) - however when I pointed out that' being busy' was not really reason for informing my mother she would need to eat her meal from my sister's plate, or the multiple mess-ups involved re. the itison deal / bill - I am sad to say their apology went down the drain as 'waiter-I-really-need-that-training-like-yesterday-guy's' response was to shrug at me in the context of "I really don't give a s**t". All in all, the worst service I have ever experienced when eating out, with the worst staff attitude imaginable. My advice is DO NOT GO, TELL YOUR FRIENDS & FAMILY NOT TO GO, TELL EVEN YOUR MILDEST ACQUAINTANCES NOT TO GO (especially if they are aged over 80 as, on reading at least one other Trip Advisor review about this place, it seems they are pretty ageist!! - shame, considering they're supposed to be a charity related venue!) and yes, I am hacked off after my Cafe Coast experience.......you have been warned Oh! potential victim (sorry, diner).

Went today with family members. My father is over eighty so asked for either kids or smaller portion menu. He was made to look foolish when told this was not allowed. We then heard the waitress talking to colleague about him and laughing. Our food was terrible. Spaghetti and meatballs stodgy and tasteless. Liver on liver and bacon dish was burned and could not be cut We told waitress but that was a waste of time. No apology. No compensation. Paid bill as my father did not want to make a fuss. Have been before and was ok but will certainly never be back

I suppose I'd be considered a regular. The food is usually good, they serve a good all day breakfast (and a veggie one too), portions sometimes too hearty. You'll get a good cup of coffee and a reasonable tray bake, the staff could sometimes be a little more attentive but they are friendly; there's also free wi-fi. The down side is the atmosphere, sometimes you can hardly carry out conversation for the noisy pop music (no, its not easy listening) and the chairs make such a noise when moved about they would give you a headache! Overall hygiene is good and the toilets are clean. The parent company (Inspire) supports people with special needs so I'll continue to be a 'regular' since I believe in what they do. However no-one should take loyalty for granted.

A social enterprise cafe in a good location with parking which, when we turned up, was busy and full of promise. Unfortunately, the food was poor and the service was worse. The burger and veggie-burger were mediocre, served with chips, but forgettable. What really let the place down though was the service. Someone from a table nearby made a request which couldn't be met and, despite being friendly to his face, when his back was turned the member of staff made a point of mocking him. This poor attitude continued in response to a couple of calls received when we were there and, as we left, it was clear the staff were speaking to each other in a language other then English. We're unlikely to return.
