Cafe Kottani in St Edmundsbury

Had the pork gyros. The practice of heating the whole wrap including salad is a big no no. It meant the salad was burning hot. There were 4 of us and all had the same issue. Not for us I'm afraid.

Delicious Gyros! Quick service and lovely staff :)

Delicious vegan meze. The best greek coffee (that is, same as turkish coffee) in town.

Best meze in town, probably in any town. Meze II and Meze III particular favourites. Small independent place, short on space but abundance of quality.

I bought a falafel wrap as a takeaway for my lunch today.. and just wow! The flavour was delicious with homus, salad, tzatziki and the homemade falafels inside. Would definitely recommend and I will be returning for another!

Charming little cafe. Falafel wraps for lunch - very tasty and reasonably priced. A good selection of sweet and savoury dishes on the menu.

Enjoyable time delicious coffee

Really authentic Greek food, brilliant

My first experience of Cafe Kottani was a great one. My Mum had been before and treated me to lunch. We had Mezze 1 & 2, a frappuccino & frappe to drink. The food was delicious and very filling. The staff were polite and served with a smile. My only criticisms would be that the falafel was slightly on the dry side. That is me being super picky and does not warrant losing a star. Already looking forward to my next visit. Recently visited again and had a lamb wrap which was cooked beautifully. Toilets were satisfactory.

Nice small cafe welcoming with good coffee

Delicious food and great service!

As always, friendly, informative staff with excellent menu. Greeted with a smile & treated with great courtesy.

I think it is time to leave a review for one of our favourite places in town. Kottani is a delightful family-owned cafe. The food is always satisfying, the service friendly and efficient. My daughter's favourite dish is the mezze 3. I used to go for a mezze myself but the portions are so generous that I usually cannot finish it all. So I settle for either the aubergine or the okra with pita bread. We brought my mom there last week - she's visiting us for the first time - and she has now been converted to hummus.

Great place for a cuppa or a bite for lunch. Authentic Greek food from a friendly family run cafe. They have a great Greek deli a few doors up the street too. .

Amazing food, and the owners are so welcoming. This is my go to place to eat whenever in Bury St Edmunds, it is unbeatable and priced very well. Food both looks and tastes amazing, and the Greek iced latte is on a different level.

I went with my dad a few weeks ago. I had a panini and an iced latte that were both really good. It was really pretty inside as well.

We were unfamiliar with Bury and visiting for the day. Our 3 year old was caught short and needed the bathroom in desperation with very little notice. The staff wouldn't let her use the bathroom without purchasing a bottle of water. I could possibly understand this for adults but this is ridiculously mean spirited for a child. In a time when society is focusing on business ethics I'd implore you to place your business in a place that maintains a baseline of human dignity.

Not very nice staff. The staff wouldn't let our 3 year old use the toilet without buying a bottle of water. Below the level of basic human decency.

Splendid light lunch. Thank you.

Small cafe, big reputation. Always eat here when in Bury st Edmunds. Excellent food, excellent value

Lovely little lunchtime spot. We often like to stop here. Highly recommended.

Excellent lunch, very tasty, authentic Greek cuisine, friendly quick service at a very reasonable price.

Really nice food - and not overpriced. Very nice to see independent sellers of quality product. Bury has a LOT of cafes with the national chain usual culprits present in numbers but Kottani offers an antidote to their bland and uninspiring fare. Eat here, live well.

We both had a Mediterranean chicken & roast veg wrap: delicious. Nice sweet treats, too. We will go back when we are in Bury next.

A real Greek cafe with authentic Greek food, excellent.

Absolutely awesome place. So friendly and welcoming and they serve fantastic coffee. Such a shame they don't have more seating.

Lovely little place in the heart of Bury St. Edmunds. Delicious food. Definitely worth a visit.

Great place really friendly and welcoming, I have been visiting this cafe countless times over the recent years and always had a great time. Great coffee and always end up getting some food too. Service 10/10 Food 10/10 Top Pick: Meatballs and Pitta for a snack Always a happy customer

We have often stopped for morning coffee and pastries, but called in for lunch today. It was excellent, salads and vegetables, although meat dishes and sandwiches are available. Better than any other light lunch we have had in Bury, extremely friendly and efficient service, freshly prepared food and a nice town centre location. The pastries are very good too (but very calorific!).

After a walk into town we needed a place to eat so decided to stop here. A warm welcome and a great selection of Greek snack meals all freshly prepared. We had a Chicken and a Halloumi wrap with salad and they were so tasty.

Took mum for hot chocolate and cake. Really great hot chocolate, nice way to watch the world go by in Bury St Edmunds for a while.

A lovely little cafe. Really nice food. Nice cosy interior.

Our Moussaka was delicious. Efharisto!

Absolutely wonderful! Rega was incredibly accommodating and kind. The service was amazing and the food was delicious! We had a selection of mezze, spanakopita, mushroom and potato pies and baklava - 10/10.

Absolutely delicious Greek food with friendly service.

Lovely little Greek corner in the hearth of BSE. Very good coffee.

Exactly like being in Greece! Excellent coffee as well.

This was a first time in bury st Edmonds my god sons recommend this restaurant that he recommended due to previous visits It was delicious food served quick and coffee other drinks and sweets all available The atmosphere was good and the venue clean

Such a great place! I had spanakopita for lunch today and it was delicious. Lovely friendly staff.

We often have Saturday lunch here and the food is always good and cooked fresh to order. there is always a lovely atmosphere, and the service is excellent

Really nice as usual. Quick friendly service, fresh tasty food 👏👏

Gyro wrap was 5/5. Mother in law said “it was really quite nice 🤓”. Beware of the dine in and takeaway prices as they are different.

Fresh tasting and delicious lunch here! Went for the halloumi and roasted veg wrap which came with a side of tzatziki - was so good 😋 a good selection of traditional cakes and sweets too! Will defs be coming back …

Excellent food , a must try. Lovely staff

Tiny little place we visited for lunch on a day out in Bury St Edmunds. We came late in the afternoon and were quickly seated. We ordered two mezze plates - my partner had the meatballs and butter beans and I had the okra and aubergine. We enjoyed the variety that comes with each plate and every part of the plate was lovely. Would definitely recommend this place for a nice Greek lunch!

Lovely little cafe, friendly welcome and great food. Cannot recommend little businesses like this enough. One of burys best.

Lovely little family owned cafe. Enjoyed two leisurely coffees and read my book for a while. There were lots of regulars through during the hour I was there, all known by name and greeted warmly.....not something that happens in the larger chains!

Limited number of tables in this small casual Greek cafe. Good selection of dishes including meze dishes with a vegan option. Tomatoes in the salad we had were 'to die for'. Excellent value and fast friendly service

Amazing food. Clearly prepared by someone with passion for food

Visited with my daughter. Authentic Greek Cafe. Meals made to order. Lots of choice on the menu. Both meals were amazing.Mediterranean Chicken panini and Fried Halloumi salad. Huge portions and the taste of my salad was fantastic. Staff friendly and worked so hard. A huge thank you for a great lunch. Will be back next time we’re in Bury St Edmunds.

Nothing has changed! If anything the food has got better!! Excellent service and food! Always a smiling face to greet you.

A lovely little taste of Greece. Wonderful food and drinks! The atmosphere is just perfect and really feels like being in Greece, definitely worth the visit if you need a brief escape from your day to day life. Brilliant staff, really welcoming feel!

Fantastic greek food! I always visit every time I nearby

Took granddaughter for brunch and we enjoyed it.

My Dad visits daily for his fix, and I also visit when in the area. The food is fresh and authentic, the coffee really good (best in town I would say). My Dad often gets the family some of their wonderful homemade treats, the cakes are wonderful. A very nice place, with very nice people, serving very nice things. Be sure to visit, you will enjoy it.

We loved our gryso and vegan mezze. Both are excellent. The okra and the aubergines were particularly good. Best okra I have ever enjoyed.

Fantastic food and friendly staff a great combination. My go to place in BSE for my Greek food fix.

Very welcoming, good service, good food

Lovely setting and location but front of house has a face like thunder and at least 6 tables waiting to order with no sign of progress. Not coping with being busy at 130pm. Toilet is down end of dingy corridor that also feeds into kitchen only wide enough for one person so an effort in diplomacy to get through dodging serving staff. Could be really good but need to up the reception and service. We left without ordering and after no one offered any service.

Never disappointed when we have visited for lunch. The Mousakka is a homemade standoff, simply amazing. Larger portions than most light bites around the town centre. Accommodating to kids, although maybe not buggys due to space. Always full but someone is always leaving as we have entered #lucky Coffees are always piping hot and to barista specs. Definitely worth a regular visit and pleasantly situated in the middle of town. Not forgetting its also a local business too. Update: Have since popped in many times. Still always full of custom and the legendary Mousakka is generally available due to its popularity. My 11yr olds go to place to eat and celebrate. The panini's in her own words are 'really delicious'.

We visited this cafe when on a short break visiting Suffolk. The staff were really friendly and the coffee was very good. We sat outdoors and it was a very pleasant experience. We had already had lunch we were there for a Portuguese custard tart and coffee, but the food that we saw others have looked delicious. A lovely place to visit with great value for money.

Never been here before and just happened to see the little gem of a restaurant. The food was really superb and genuinely Greek. Will definitely return when next in Bury St Edmunds.

Tiny little place that we visited for lunch on a Saturday. Greek food, with everything from wraps to meze plates and some delicious looking pastries, cakes and baklava. I had one of the meze plates, which was good value for money at around £9, and everything was delicious!

Great fresh food. Excellent spanakopita! Even the side salad was lovely with a dressing. Not many covers so get in when you can!

Many lunches here, simple but great home cooked menu. the pie and moussaka are tasty. many combinations of meze to eat. Not many seats but they have seating at the rear so if it is full up you can ask the counter and they may...

Delicious, plentiful, genuinely home cooked food - and excellent value for money. Friendly service and lovely ambience in the cafe. If there was one thing I would change - I'd play authentic background music instead of the radio which, for me, was a distraction and...

We really love it here - it offers really wholesome Greek food. I usually get gigantes and would definitely recommend these vegan or otherwise! The staff here are lovely and always welcoming. Its a little cramped inside and can get super busy so make sure...

Had an excellent lunch here yesterday - wraps with chicken and feta accompanied by salad and hummus. Very quick, friendly service and very good value. I would highly recommend it - a pity it is not open at night as we attend concerts at the Apex theatre and have a meal before the show.

Excellent menu choice. Good communication that food is freshly cooked and that it will take a while. Generous portions and very tasty.

Delicious Greek food. Always a fast friendly service.

Simple good value. Hard-working family-run business. Freshly prepared lunches (moussaka, gyros) and arguably the best espresso in town. It says much that you generally have to spot your opportunity to grab a table. If only they had more space!

Lovely cafe with excellent feta and spinach pie.

Popped in for a quick bite today, and loved it. Served promptly- and our food was delicious The coffee was possibly the best I'd had in a long time, Highly recommend a visit here

Amazing chicken wrap with quick and friendly service. Highly recommended!

Delicious food, lovely choice of dishes and pastries. Lovely friendly service. Great value and in a good central location.

Thought I'd give the place a try. Excellent lunch, staff very attentive and pleasant

Brilliant Experience, Great Food and Welcoming Staff, Food is Excellent and freshly made, Highly Recommend 😋

Graet sandwiches small coffe mainly greek staff need bit upgrade but the food was fantastic and fresh

Delicious Mezze, hadn't planned to go here but popped in on a whim and everything we ordered was top notch.

Family had visited previously Cafe Kottani in the Summer and raved about the food. On a day trip to Bury this was planned as part of the day and am glad we visited. Between us we had the meze (great selection and really enjoyed the...

When we take our boy to football, we like go to Kottani for coffee and pastry. Perfect!

Had a wonderful unexpected lunch here, the mezze was absolutely delicious and the chicken gyro had a wonderful charcoaled flavour. Very authentic food and a real treat for a fantastic price.

A first visit today, despite many trips to Bury St Edmunds. This cafe is as good as the reviews say; not a huge menu, but what was there was a lovely representation of Greek everyday food with a hint of British. We both chose one...

We love going here. Always tasty. Always fresh.

They make a very good Cappuccino, a fine selection of pastries and salads too.

Fantastic food and such a lovely place chap who serves is so friendly too. Go every sat never disappointed

Delisous Greek food, lunchtime chicken gyros and baklava, takeaway.

Delicious food, busy atmosphere, perfect spot for lunch

The Meze was excellent, great selection, meatballs succulent, bread moreish, tzatziki fresh. The Phyllo spinach and feta pie was a savoury delight. Completely random surprise find on our tour of Suffolk, fantastic friendly service, a recommendation for sure 👌

Very nice & friendly. Even acknowledged my 80th. Birthday. Thank you.

Love this place, my wife (Sue) & I ate their today, the service is second to none, and the food is of a very high standard. Great service, great prices, if you've never tried this place, then your missing out. Everyone just go go go and enjoy....

Great food excellent service l give 4.9

Omg fabulous food today , bit of a wait but it didn't disappoint, 2 meze plates that were absolutely delicious.

We'd been to a lunch time concert and were looking for a light bite on a hot day . the wraps were lovely and tasty . The guy serving was really helpful to customers and very pleasant. Lovely to find someone who is excellent at...

Fabulous Greek food. Very authentic- even down to the iced coffees.

Great little Greek cafe in the middle of Bury st Edmunds.

We had a wonderful lunch here on market day this week. Lovely friendly staff, good seating outside in a good position to watch the world go by. It is always nice to try somewhere new and be very pleasantly surprised, thank you - we will be back.

Called in for a snack, not a vegetarian but wanted something different, the lady owner couldn't have been any more helpful. Made me a lovely falafel/halumni wrap with a smashing cup of coffee and not at all overpriced. Thank you for the experience.

Excellent food. Staff happy to serve you and very helpful. Highly recommended

Lovely food and great staff. Especially little Aaron! Will definitely stop here for lunch again! Thank you
