Diggory's in East Lothian

Was rank, coffee was weak and hair in my pastry.. wouldn't recommend to my worst enemy to be honest. Would recommend Gregg's round the corner in all fairness.

Second time I've dropped in and on both occasions have been delighted with the quality of coffee and scones. Staff very good at organising seating when it gets busy, and are generally welcoming. Easily my favourite coffee shop in Haddington now.

Had gone into another cafe along the road which was really busy and couldn't give us a table for 15 minutes. It was cold out and there was nowhere to wait so moved along. This place looked nice and did simple lunch-type food which is what we were after. Although quite busy they had a spare table. Ordered a couple of soup-toastie/panini combos and a tea and coke zero. Both the soup and sandwiches were excellent. If I'm out that way again I'd definitely go back for lunch. Much better vibe and food than any of the fast food options.

My husband and I visited here with our kids for the first time today and it was great. The food was delicious and good value too. A good choice on the menu for kids, the meal deal for them was a nice surprise. The service was really welcoming and friendly. We’ll definitely be back.

Having been offered mediocre coffee in paper cups in the north of Scotland and charged £3.90 it was a deligh to return home to our Borderlands and revisit Diggory. The owners ever welcoming, the cappuccino a work of art and delicious as are the tray bakes. We were surrounded by folk happily enjoying full meals. Highly recommended.

This is a busy coffee shop in a beautiful town. However, the furniture, while looking clean, was sticky. Service was slow. I am also concerned about the sandwiches. They were prepared without disposable gloves or obvious cleaning of hands and location. If you have dietary restrictions (medical, cultural, religious) I don't see how cross contamination could be avoided. I might be wrong, but it didn't look good.

Popped in for a coffee whilst visiting family in Haddington, 4 adults plus one toddler. Coffee was delicious and wonderful designs drawn on the cappucchinos. Owner was very helful with seating arrangements and supplying toys for our grandson. A relaxed and happy coffee shop.

We stopped here for coffee 10 days ago. The service was fine however the coffees, a black Americano and a cappuccino, were pretty ordinary

Very warm welcome. Comfy sofas as well as tables to sit at. Had cappuccinos and scones - nice place to sit for a coffee and a chat, but they also have a good choice of lunch and snack options.

We stopped in on a drizzly visit to Haddington. Staff were very accommodating, finding a suitable table for our family, including my elderly mother and making us feel welcome. We ordered tea, hot chocolates, soft drinks, panini & a pulled pork toastie. All were served quickly and to our request (one picky eater in our family group, so no onions, salad etc), and all were very tasty. The hot chocolates were fabulous too, and all a very reasonable cost. I would definitely recommend this cafe to anyone visiting Haddington.

I love this place. I received a warm welcome. I ordered my food and Espresso which arrived very quickly. The Panini was quite delicious, as was the accompanying salad. The coffee tasted just great. I was filled up just right. The music was at just the right level and everyone was so encouraging, positive, happy and polite. There was a good choice of food and drink. I really liked how there was no taste of chlorine in the glass of tap water I had. I shall return for sure. 10/10 A1+

Had a lovely lunch , nicely presented with plenty of choice. Generously filled sandwich . Staff very helpful and friendly .

We have walked past this cafe numerous times and it’s usually busy so we end up going elsewhere . This time ( a Friday ) there was an empty table by the window so we went in and the staff sanitised it for us to sit at It’s very friendly and welcoming, comfortable, clean + Covid safe . You order and pay at the counter and they then bring your order to the table . Husband had some soup ( apparently it was lovely ) I had a coronation chicken sandwich which was very nice and came with crisps and a bit of side salad . We ordered flat whites too and I was asked what size cup I’d like and how many shots ? I asked for the small size and 2 shots but it was actually quite a large cup . Depending how you like your coffee I think the barista there would make it exactly how you asked ( possibly can ask for a smaller cup for the flat white ) The coffee blend was very nice and they were happy to bring us glasses of iced water as well

Stopped for lunch on way to holiday cottage nearby. Very friendly service . Food quality high...the best jacket potato I’ve had in a long time. I would be a regular if I lived here. Thank you.

Had lovely lunch here, staff so helpful and courteous, tables and chairs sanitised after each customer.

Stumbled across this place when visiting Haddington. Had a coronation chicken sandwich on lovely brown bread with a tasty side salad. Would return again!

Good quality cup of coffee and nice selection of imaginative cakes and baking on offer. Was nice and quiet after the lunchtime rush so could enjoy my coffee and newspaper in peace.

Clean layout comfortable seating and very friendly staff. Very centrally located in Historical Town of Haddington

Soup and a sandwich for lunch, was very nice, the coffee is lovely and the staff were friendly and welcoming, definitely worth a visit to support the local businesses

A lovely little community cafe. Good food, good coffee, great customer service. And a great location in the centre of town.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Food good, coffee ok, gets busy at lunchtime. Better than Gregg's...

Amazing hot chocolates and coffee. The cafe is very baby-friendly, and the owner could not be more helpful, providing high chairs, warming bottles etc. A lovely local to have!

Fantastic coffee and lovely breakfast toastie. Warm scones and clotted cream were a delight. Definitely recommend for a pleasant warm atmosphere to refuel

Lovely cafe with plenty of seating in two areas. Magazines and newspapers on rack if like me you are on your own and no one to chat to. Excellent hot coffee and I loved the cherry and coconut scone. An extensive menu and reasonably priced.Owner chatted as I left so cannot understand the previous reviewers comments. I certainly will return.

Where do all these certificates of excellence come from. This was awful from beginning to leaving. No customer service , unfriendly, rudeness, a very poor menu and general unwillingness to help. We were made to feel as serving us was a burden . 2 coffees and 2 cakes. The cake was dried out, the coffee reheated. And overpriced compared to competitors. Where it gets the good reviews from is beyond us. Probably one of the worst cafe experiences in last 5 years. Sorry .just dreadful.

Really enjoyed the coffee and service here, very pleasant. Good range of cakes too - wish all the best.

Really friendly staff, good atmosphere, tasty food and coffee. Child friendly, toys available. Lovely little place!

Family owned, happy, smiley staff. Children friendly, great and beautiful coffee Nice cakes and lunch

This is a fabulous coffee shop, all the staff are warm and welcoming and make it a pleasure to visit. There are always two choices of soup and they are always lovely. Scones & cakes are excellent too as is the banter. Don't miss it.

After a walk alongside the Tyne River we were looking for somewhere to have tea or coffee and a cake in Haddington on a Sunday afternoon. We were really pleased to find Diggory's. The staff were pleasant and helpful - even offered to refill our water bottles. How good is that?

Really nice place for home made cake with really good coffee. Staff all very friendly and comfortable surroundings. Recommend.

Heerlijke koffie gedronken in een prettige, ontspannen sfeer. Verrukkelijke taarten, scones, muffins etc. Een aanrader.

We were passing through and parked in Haddington for a break while driving South. A local shop owner recommended Diggory's when we asked about finding a good light lunch. Having checked that orders were taken at the counter, the proprietor helpfully talked us through the specials boards and gave us a warm welcome. Food was good and as expected. Staff were pleasant and welcoming so overall a very positive find for us which I'm sure we will return to in future.

Came here again for lunch and coffees. Great choice of food, well cooked and good presentation. Coffees are good quality and always made to perfection but best of all is the warm friendly welcome and great service from the owners and stafd

Cycled along the old railway line from Longniddry to Haddington and arrived hungry! Found this cracking cafe on the High Street and we both had the soup combo. Sambar Dahl soup special was lovely - thick, hot and spicy. Mr Travelcat said coronation chicken sandwich was first class. Good background music too! Looking forward to cycling here again.

Found staff unfriendly and very unhelpful. I hadn't visited the cafe before so didn't know if it was table or counter service, server was a bit sharp when I asked. I asked for a bacon roll but was told that this is not on menu. I noticed that there was bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwiches on sale so I asked if these were pre-made or if they would be made fresh. I was told fresh so I asked if I could have a bacon sandwich ie a blt minus the lettuce and tomato, mmmmm I suppose so!

Really handy for the A1, we needed somewhere to stop on our way north. Diggory's was perfect! Excellent coffee and cakes, welcoming staff, clean facilities and great selection of toys and books to entertain our 2yr old for half an hour. Highly recommended.

Just had a coffee but it was so lovely, I felt it warranted a review! staff were Friendly, cafe was clean.

Popped in after a wee stroll along the Tyne. Mum and I just had coffees which were lovely. Dad also had a scone which looked and he confirmed was delicious. Nice comfy seats for relaxing and watching the world go by.

My wife and I popped into this cafe with four of our children (9-16) after a lovely walk around this little town.

The coffee in this wee shop is amazing. Love to get a seat at the window,hot coffee and a scone and watch the world go by

On a recent holiday to Haddington to visit my daughter and familly my wife and I were on an afteroon walk in the town and went into Diggory's cafe for an afternoon snack. The place was busy but we got a table for two and from then on until we left everthing was as near perfect as one could get in a cafe. We ordered our choice and almost immediately my wife's tea and my coffee were served. My cup of café latte was more like a huge mug and was perfectly heated (not boiling hot as some cafes provide) The sandwiches came not much later and again were perfectly made and very decent quantity size. The café was very busy but as soon as people left, the tables were cleaned immediately and reset for the next customers which, when we were there, was almost immediately. Certainly a place to revisit on my next time in Haddington

Popped in for a pot of tea & a cheese scone on a wet, windy and miserable morning.

Only found this place a couple of weeks ago when putting off time while my car was being serviced. Returned today with my wife for coffees and a couple of cakes. Very good, coffees made to order, fresh cakes, good service, reasonable prices. No hesitation in recommending , we will certainly go again.

As a Granny with a grandchild and armed with a buggy, your desperate for lunch to feed your beautiful grandson, somewhere inviting and accommodating to your predicament. Your armed with a grandad who wasn’t too well but wanted to pop out. Which leads me to my review!!!

Lovely food with friendly service 😌 really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be backWould highly recommend

Pleasant, comfortable seating. Efficient and friendly service. Coffee is always made how you like it. I always ask for it extra hot and the staff ensure it is! Nothing worse than lukewarm coffee!!

The food was nice enough nothing special also staff were pleasant enough but the actual cafe is quite tired looking could do with a bit of a makeover

My husband I called in on our way home from Newcastle today and couldn’t have been made more welcome. From the minute we arrived until we left after lovely soup and sandwich staff and owner were lovely.

This is a coffee place that serves nice wee food items and comfy seats. No frills but sometimes thats not what you actually need; this place serves nice coffee and is a great place to meet up with friends or take a wee break from the world outside.

Called following all the good reviews. Sandwiches and drinks were OK but nothing special. Staff were pleasant and clearly had a lot of loyal trade. Service was prompt and price fair. Menus were rather worn. Panini promised chips and salad on the menu but crisps and salad arrived. Tea pot for one gave only enough for 1 and a half cups. Plaque on the wall stated it opened in 2012. Menu reported it opened in 2015. Wall paper was severely worn and scuffed from chairs rubbing against it which gave the place we don't care look. So disappointed.

I visited Diggory’s for a coffee and cake whilst in Haddington and was made to feel welcome right from being at the counter, through to our drinks being brought over, all of which were enjoyed.

We have lived in Haddington for a year now and I hadn’t gone into Diggory’s as I would just notice it in passing. After hearing it was such a lovely place I decided to mooch in one morning and do a spot of work as it meant I could check it out for the kids - without the kids. Great menu of not loads of stuff but super tasty food which is what you want (tick) comfy area with lots of kids books and gentle toys - nothing that flashes and screams - (tick) toilet without hand dryer (big fat tick for terrified toddler) and - my all time favourite- fantastic customer care; friendly, kind to my children, humouring me and my fantastically thigh slapping wit.... (tick, tick, tick) we now go all the time. My 3 year old loves playing dominoes safe in the knowledge that he won’t get killed by a hand dryer when he needs to go for a wee. Let’s face it, we all feel better knowing that too.

We came across this cafe by chance just going for a walk on Saturday and so glad we did. The food is very nice and plenty choice and the staff are very friendly and helpful. With my father being a wheel chair user, they helped us in and out of the cafe without even asking. Very impressed with their service and will be back and will recommend to friends and family. Well Done Diggory's

Popped in her on Saturday with my father and daughter for bite to eat on the passing. So glad we did, the food was lovely and the staff could not have been more friendlier or helpful. My father is in wheelchair and they helped us in and out of the cafe without having to ask. Will definitely be back to visit and will recommend to friends and family.

Travelling from the Forth Bridge to Newcastle we stopped for coffee and a slice of cake. Diggory's ticked all the boxes. Good cake, good value and a toilet.

We had reason to visit our Council Offices and thenwanted a lunch. We saw this place and their bill board which advertised, amongst other things,baked potatoes. These are a fall back for us in any town which we are unfamiliar with and,as it was raining, we made dash for it. There a limited number of tables but we found oneas the previous group left. We also offered a spare chair to a lady who came in after us for a quick bite, We ordered a cheddar cheese (my wife) and chilie con carne (me) baked potatoes at the counter and they were brought to our table when ready. The potatoes were large and came with a salad garnish - perfect for a light lunch - rounded off with a pot of tea each. We both cleared our plates and felt sufficiently full for the time of day. We would frequent again if we are down that way.

Having visited with some other mums it looked like it was going to be a tight squeeze with buggys, they accommodated willingly. It is really busy so if you just walk in and get a table well done!. Always fresh items.. staff are always plesant.. lovely little pit stop.

Several people have recommended Diggory’s, but this was my first opportunity to pop in following a long country walk. The restaurant is light and airy (very important on a hot day!) Staff were very welcoming and my tea and scones were very good. The butter was not in the fridge, which is an advantage when trying to spread on a crumbly scone. I shall have to come back another time to try their lunches.

I was really impressed with what I thought might be just a simple (boring) lunch turned out to be something a bit more special. It’s great value and I’ll certainly be eating there again. As a bonus, the coffee is good too.

Stopped here for a bite to eat. Busy café on the high street. Friendly staff, good selection of food on the menu at reasonable prices. Excellent coffee.

Stopped by in Haddington for a wee wonder and decided to have something to eat, came across this cafe on the high street. Staff helpful and friendly and food was delicious and well presented. Good choice of food and drinks on offer and very well priced. Would defo recommend and will definitely be back.

found this little café in haddington on drive home from the highlands and the potato and paprika soup was just gorgeous...so nice that hubby asked me to make it when we got home so Ive looked it up on the internet as the owner wouldn't part with the recipe (understandably) so going to have a go at making it myself

Three of us were visiting Haddington for the day and wandered into this establishment - we were greeted by very friendly staff who were attentive to our needs but not in your face - the owner came to take our order and was extremely proficient professional helpful and friendly - he offered us tap water to go with our soup & sandwich orders, quite rare in Scotland, and asked if I wanted my coffee before during or after my soup then brought it later - the standard of service in this small local café/restaurant was exceptional - the quality of the soup and Panini sandwich was of similar quality - the other customers, many of whom were locals, were treated to the same high standards as were some American tourists who stepped in out of the rain - this was a very pleasant experience - if other cafes and/or restaurants want to know how to treat customers then they should wander into Diggory,s fr some customer service lessons - hope to return soon

Stopped here for lunch and it was excellent. The owner was very pleasant and helpful. The food was great and nothing was any trouble for them. Would return in a heartbeat. Highly recommended.

Although we just popped in here for coffee, I'd certainly come back again. The coffee was very good indeed and there was a nice selection of home baking on display too. I had a lovely cheese and bacon toastie and my son had a beautiful fresh cheese scone. Friendly staff too - oh, and the toilets were good too, spotlessly clean!

This is a lovely café. Lots of homemade goods. I have a decaffeinated coffee and brown toast, most days. The coffee is delicious, as is the toast. Lovely moist bread and plenty of butter! Well done David and Elaine.

Wanting to find a decent coffee and a quick bite for breakfast. We found this gem. Great coffee, yummy breakfast toastie with well cooked bacon. Great service. Highly recommend this place when in or near Haddington

Great service. Friendly and helpful staff. I really like the lattes here. Reasonably priced. My kids always plead to come here for lunch.

Nice friendly coffee shop, family run.. Go in often with friends. Good service. Simple food to go with excellent coffee. Home made soup. Toasties. Salads. Nice place to chill with friends. Good ambience. Well worth a visit.

had baked potato with lots of filling,very tasty and as much tea as you wanted.staff are very friendly and helpful.

Un buen café, de estar agradable y relajante. Parecía haber una "despensa de juguete" así que quizás no es un buen lugar si quieres un almuerzo tranquilo. . . Obviamente, atender a madres con niños. Buena elección, en menú panini dice que viene con ensalada...

Fuimos en sirve llevaron inmediatamente y yo tuvimos la sopa casera que era. Caliente sabroso. Servicio local caffe gran

My wife and I just popped in for a lunchtime snack. Service is super, friendly and efficient. I don't suppose it's everyone's 'cup of tea' eating whilst sitting on a couch, it is not ours. The owner and staff are all very pleasant. Eat there at least once a week.

Just passing through and wanting to have a coffee we were just giving up when we found this gem. Lovely atmosphere, excellent coffee and tasty danish pastries made for a really good coffee stop. Lunch menu looked good although more veggie options would have been good. Coffee also all ethically sourced. Well done. Thoroughly recommended.

Warm and welcoming atmosphere and staff. Soup and a panini was excellent. Great value. The Diggory blend of coffee is lovely and I will be buying some for at home.

We pre booked bacon sandwiches for 19 cyclists We arrived they had our tables ready , we ordered coffees and they bought out fantastic bacon toasties The staff were so helpful , bought coffees and water Really well organised cafe with great staff, set us up for our cycle to BerwickMany thanks

I booked a table here for four; my wife and I were taking friends for a day out for a special occasion and we wanted to be sure that we had a table for early coffee. On arrival we were warmly greeted by the owner ho directed us to our seats. He then cam to take our order of coffee and scones.This cafe specialise in coffee and whilst I had tea, the others thought that the coffee was very nice. The scones were also extremely nice, probably some of the best that either I or my wife has had in cafes and restaurants over the past few years.Overall, service was great, coffee and scones very good, a great place to stop over.

Only "complaint "... far too much fantastic choices..Scones ,homemade soup,paninis etc Friendly welcoming staff

have stopped by for a pot of tea and a cake a couple of times in the past, whilst on Holiday in Scotland, and in Haddington.Staff Friendly and Helpful, Lovely pot of tea, brought to you at the table. Offer a nice selection of cakes and cooked food in a nice clean little cafe

Stopped here for lunch and was really please with our decision. The salads and sandwiches are freshly made and the coffee is very good. Excellent value and the staff are very helpful and friendly.

I've been to Diggory's a few times now and I've consistently received great service and lovely food. I'll continue to keep coming back for lunches, light bites and coffees.

My wife and l stopped on here for lunch on the way to seahouses --very good and with attentive service --food was well presented and very tasty --the establishment is obviously well kent with locals which adds to the atmosphere ---a huge improvement on the motorway cafe alternatives which we just refuse to visit

My Mum and I stopped in here on the way to North Berwick and found the café very welcoming and comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the scones and drinks were excellent.

We've been to Diggory's several times as the coffee is good and the customer service is great. They are very family friendly, and the food is good.

A great wee cafe selling good coffees and a range of light snacks - one of our "go tos" in haddington!

Buen cafe, buenos pasteles, buen servicio...Un diez. De los sitios visitados sin duda el mejor café y el mejor servicio. Además tiene una estancia con sillones realmente cómodos donde se está muy agusto

Really enjoyed our little stop in Huffington and stumbled on Diggorys after visiting the farmers market.Staff couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating for us including my 4 year old son. They catered for my coleciac disease and the sandwich provided my son with one of those "I hate being a coleciac moments". Two plates of nachos, sandwich, shortbread, and the best looking coffee for a long time and two cakes for £20 I thought was fine. I would go back.

Met a friend for lunch. We had a Toastie with some nice crisps and a Diet Coke for 2. £15. Quick service.

Warm family friendly Welcome from the Owner and his Staff, prompt service and great tasty food.Stopped for a light Friday snack with a little one in tow and was pleasantly surprised with the comfy surroundings. Will definitely be back when we Visit Haddington again

Great coffee & friendly helpful staff. Best in Haddington in my opinion. Good selection of meals & snacks we go there regularly and have never been disappointed

Relaxing, welcoming and good food and drinks. Relaxing sofas to chill and read papers and tables to chat, suitable for all

Have visited here a few times. Always a good choice of lovely cakes and scones, friendly staff - and comfy seats.

Diggorys is a good place to just go and chill. Its a very calming cafe. It's a really good place to go and get some work done whilst enjoying a tasty late!

Had coffee sanity. Very freindly enjoyed coffee cherry bakewell would recommend it highly.nice clean relaxing with proper home baking and nice well presented sandwich

We called in here when travelling back through Scotland and had a very pleasant break with coffee and scones. The service was really welcoming and friendly. The coffee was excellent (choose the size of cup you want) and the scones were also delicious - both fruit and cheese varieties. The cafe serves a variety of light meals and drinks and prices are very fair. We would definitely return here.
