Gracie's Tapas Bar in Dundee City

Poor cheap food and overpriced.

Dog friendly cafe in Broughty Ferry. Very good coffee and a fine selection of tray bakes - avoid this place if you are dieting!!!

Initial impression was good with friendly staff and trendy decor. Breakfast menu has plenty of choice but it is on the expensive side for what you. Eggs Benny - with Salmon and full breakfast both great presentation, however the bread on the benny was fairly soggy when served. Flat white was more like a cappuccino which at nearly £4 you expect true authentic barista quality - although it did look nice. £33 for 2 breakfast, flat white and orange juice on the expensive side - maybe that’s just Ferry prices but wasn’t worth it.

Great food wonderful atmosphere happy helpful staff. Recommend the eggs benny sooo good 😊

Stopped in for breakfast. The place was flat out busy. Was welcomed at the door and given my table. The food was great and the staff were attentive to everyone.

There are definitely times to visit Gracie's, and times to walk on by. Saturday morning is not one of the best times to visit. Loud, out of control children mixed with loud out of control dogs. It's not anything Gracie's can do anything about but it sure does ruin the experience.

We had very nice Brunch here. A breakfast or good quality bacon, sausage, black pudding, potato tots and beans with toast. Very tasty. Poached eggs topped with crispy halloumi. Very tasty again. The service was exceptional. We were very impressed. Would recommend and will return.

Nice place nice staff nice food

Delightful cafe. Dog friendly and laid out well with booth’s. Service was friendly and so appreciative of having a dog, dog snacks and water provided. The menu was great. Had the Gracie’s Club sandwich. Presented really well, and flavours exploded with every bite.

I’ll start off by saying that for £41 we had a latte a milkshake 2 toasties and shared chips. I found for the price it was super disappointing, the drinks were nice but my latte was £5 and the milkshake was 6.95! Everything was okay, food was hot etc but the portion of chips was quite stingy! I thought it was average food for the price. The atmosphere was very loud, it did actually put me off coming back as I felt at times I couldn’t hear myself speak.

On a very pleasant day in Broughty Ferry we were delighted to find Gracie’s thriving. A hearty lunch of their excellent plateful of Plant-astic burger and skinny fries with their tasty Shakshuka were accompanied by a delicious Mango, Almond Milk, Banana and Greek Yoghurt drink and an exemplary oat milk de-caff Cappuccino. This was served by smiling and helpful staff, there was a great ambience in a well laid out eating area with handy facilities. We left replete as two very happy diners! Thanks

Brilliant breakfasts and fantastic cakes

Picked this place for munch ad it looked fresh and inviting. Staff were very welcoming and attentive.Food was fresh and coffee was decent.

Food was excellent and vfm. I'd recommend the "steak out" from the mains on the menu. Very tasty and good value.

Had been a few times before for a coffee and enjoyed the atmosphere and décor but decided to try it for breakfast. Was really disappointed in the food. The eggs benedict was awful, the sauce was split and tasted of vinegar, the two poached eggs were solid. It was all served on a thin slice of soggy sourdough that had originally been toasted but due to the wet spinach (as I ordered eggs benedict I had expected bacon) it was mushy, left most of it. We also ordered a scone, which looked pretty when it arrived, dusted with icing sugar. Sadly this did little to disguise a microwaved scone that was doughy and dense, one bite and it tasted so underbaked it too was inedible. While the hot drinks were fine (how wrong can black coffee and tea be) the orange juice was served with loads of ice in the glass which took up much of the room meaning the quantity of fruit juice was half the glass size. Overall we felt it was really poor value, especially as its prices are a bit higher than most of the other local cafes. Will not be back.

Wonderful staff, and fantastic Breakfast options. Interior is visually delightful.

Enjoyed the food, had breakfast and coffee. Restaurant was clean, looked great, staff were polite and helpful.

Not cheap but a lovely menu lots of choice the kids loved it. :Lovely attentive staff who made a fuss over the kids which was nice. Great experience cant wait to retuen next time we are up on holiday.

Just wow!! Visited again, food lovely. Well worth stopping for. Service bit slow this morning, drinks cold/ finished by time we got breakfast and dishes not all served together - BUT, it was peak time and everyone very helpful. Wouldn't put me off visiting again.

Bread was cheap and was soggy so much so that when I pick it up it fell apart. This was either caused by the plate being wet or the surface when making the sandwich was wet. Presentation was poor did not look appetising. Should have walked along to Tesco and got a meal deal!! Extremely overpriced would not recommend and will not be returning.

Had a bap for breakfast. £5.50. I added a sausage which was very nice.

Lovely little coffee shop with nice cakes. Dog friendly. Staff lovely

Atmosphere: excellent, lively, great! Decor: funky, cool, cosy booths! Menu: excellent, different items from your normal fare Food: 10/10, loved it!! I had Mac & cheese with chorizo and sourdough. My wife had steak, chips, eggs with amazing sauces. Service; brilliant! Overall, loved it! Will return

This place getting pricey £3*10 for glass coke here is one the customer going elsewhere.Shame as good really good. We are in cosy of living crisis .I can see people leaving come on boss lower your prices.

Had a lovely experience at Gracie’s! The curried parsnip and coconut soup was amazing! Food and service was great. Will be back :)

Fab food, great macaroni cheese, shakshuka and burgers…..great to find a local cafe serving amazing food

A busy place. An service was good. Friendly staff. Food good also. Price very reasonable. Il be back soon.

2nd time visiting Gracies, dropped in for tea and coffee and a sandwich. Had the Ruben's toastie. It was packed with pastrami and swiss cheese and came with nachos and side salad. Excellent value.

Coffee was good but don’t know about the food. And they’re Dog friendly.

Visited today for brunch, nice little place and pleasant service, food was pretty amazing!! We ordered Gracie’s breakfast and the breakfast skillet - they obviously choose their suppliers welll as quality of food was so so good, well presented and very tasty. Breakfast skillet stood out, it’s a lot but tastes so good that I didn’t want to leave any. Would definitely recommend if you’re in the area and will be back!

Had lunch there today with our 2 children and food/service was fantastic. Staff were Uber friendly, attentive and enthusiastic. Highly recommend this place for family lunch 😎

With all the coffee shops and cafes in Broughty Ferry, Gracies is definitely one of my favourites. The staff, and manager, are always friendly and helpful, and the food is wonderful! Whether you're a local or a visitor to this beautiful seaside town, Gracies should be on your list as a place to visit.

Good atmosphere and fast, friendly service despite how busy it was. Food was very tasty and very reasonably priced, and we'll definitely be back for another nice lunch! P.S. There was a corgi.

Polite staff, lovely food and very clean. Highly recommended

Went in for a quick coffee, and despite it being fairly busy, service was quick and the friendly staff couldn't be more helpful. Definitely going to be a regular visitor from now on!

Super lunch time ambiance, customers around chatting and relaxed. Very warm greeting and send off afterwards. Efficient, smiling, lively friendly waitress served us Had hot lentil soup on a very cold windy day, full of flavour and filling. Highly recommended

excellent food and friendly staff

Lovely little cafe. Ordered 2 teas and 2 scones and was pleasantly surprised by volume of tea, easily 3 cups each in the teapot. The scones were warmed and delicious. My only slight issue was that it took almost 25 mins from ordering to receiving our food and drinks. It was busy, but not mobbed and others who came in after us were served their orders well before us. (inc plates of food!) These things happen, but staff never acknowledged it. Anyway, small thing and it wouldn't stop me returning as the food and setting easily compensated.

I was last here with a friend a few months back. Waitresses came round and informed diners they would need to pay by cash only as the card reader was down. It was my friend's turn to pay but he only had credit cards and no cash at all, luckily, I found a £20 note in my wallet and offered to pay on this occasion. I approached the owner asked for the bill, he said it was £20 + 70 pence, I explained I only had £20 on me but would get the 70 pence to him to which he replied in an abrupt manner 'WHEN' I repeated I would get the 70 pence to him, this time he replied (more aggressively) 'but when, I need to know so I can balance the till'. This made me feel humiliated & very embarrassed especially as there was a group of people standing there waiting to get in. Prior to then, I had been a frequent visitor along with friends colleagues and sometimes family but have not darkened his doorstep since and have no intention of ever doing so again. This rude individual allegedly operates in the hospitality sector but there was nothing hospitable about his behaviour on that occasion, to the owner at Gracie's I can assure you there is no mistake on my part. events stated in my review are 100% accurate and not embellished in any way. How it ended was, I stayed behind whilst John my friend and fellow diner dashed out to get some cash and ensured you got the 70 pence you were making such a song & dance about, then we both left your premises feeling disgusted with your behaviour and vowing never to return - we haven't since.

Decided to come here for breakfast and we were not disappointed, there was a table ready and we were asked what we wanted,we were served a hot and delicious breakfast, staff were very polite and friendly, my only criticism was the beans went cold quick, the plates were warmed everything else on the plate was 5*. We'll be back.

Had brunch with my mum here, was a really nice experience. The food was delicious and the staff were lovely.

Fabulous bacon bap and extremely friendly and professional staff...thank you

£11.50 for a toastie with a mushroom and some brie on it and it was absolutely disgusting to boot. My husband owns a restaurant so I know about paying for costs, staff etc but this was just a rip off. Also £11 my friend was charged for a plate of chips with a bit of sausage in blanket on it pitched as Christmas poutine. No idea how they can justify this or how it manages to stay open. Hadn't been in two years and won't be returning any time soon.

Good cup of coffee. Friendly service. Sat out watching the world go by.

Always delicious food from the lovely people at Gracie's. Nicest place to have a bite in the ferry.

Really enjoyed our visit to Gracies. We received a warm, friendly greeting and this level of service continued throughout our visit. The staff were really chatty and helpful when it came to choosing from the menu. The quality of the food was excellent and the coffees were hot and tasty. Will definitely be back in the new year

Staff were great, very attentive. Food was good, I had the “Chick in hell”, which was spicy chicken nuggets with chilli sauce on a waffle. It was ok, but I was expecting a proper piece of chicken rather than nuggets, which sadly made the whole thing a bit dry and disappointing. Another one of the family had club sandwich (I think) but they said the avocado on it wasn’t great. Good place, with good service and overall good food, a little disappointing that it wasn’t great food

The actual food and server were great.They have a parking lot across from hotel. there is a security guard at front of hotel directly across from parking lot.When we came out my friend's car had passenger side window smashed at 10 AM. either the security didn't see or didn't care.when asked overly he said they don't monitor that lot even though it clearly says it is associate dish the Gracies restaurant and hotel. Took her hours to get windows replaced, glass clear up , feeling violated. I had not been to down town for years . Will definitely NEVER go again. This is tragic and not necessarily due to hotel issues but due to PDX lack of security down town. Do NOT go here.

came here with my partner on monday and it was lovely. im a very picky eater and substituted many things and the guy serving us was so friendly and accommodating, also making good menu recommendations.

I love it here. The staff are on the whole really nice, the manager is amazing. The food is excellent and the renovations looks great.

Decided to have their Christmas special and I tell you what... Superb... Could do with a wee bit more gravy/juice but the taste amazing..

Lovely food, great service, highly recommended. Sadly taking a star off in this revised review for the smaller portions. We paid more than £1 for 4 small mushroom caps, usually you get a decent amount as a side with scrambled eggs. Not so today unfortunately. Probably won't be going back other than for hot drinks.

We found the staff at Gracie's to be friendly, welcoming and helpful. The atmosphere informal and relaxed and we spent a very enjoyable late Sunday lunch at Gracie's. The dietary requirements of one member of our party were well met with helpful advice on menu adjustments which resulted in a much enjoyed meal all round. The coffees were particularly enjoyed.

Lovely cafe and staff Nice to see a good gluten free choice

Honestly, after numerous visits & trying other places, we think Gracie’s is the best in Broughty Ferry! Beautifully presented, quality food for brunch in nice surroundings (not crammed in). Great service always - thanks :-)

It was excellent enjoyed the Waffle and bacon with syrup and cream.

Food really good, service good too. 3 dogs in while we were there, not so sure about that but otherwise very nice

A fine late lunch. I had the fried chicken with waffles. Chicken strips were nicely cooked and crispy. Super addition is the maple Buffalo butter sauce and the jalapeños. The better half had poached eggs with delicious tomato sauce. The addition of crispy bacon was good. Coffee and mocha were nicely made and tasty. Dog friendly too. Friendly and efficient staff make for a fine late lunch.

Visited too late for a breakfast bap, but the lovely waitress said she would see what could be done, a couple of minutes later a lovely bacon roll and pot of tea.

Friendly staff great coffee what more do u nee

Food is not the usual bland menu, but mixed up a bit and the taste and portion size are to die for !! All 4 of us were blown away by the quality and quantity of the food. I had the haggis, slim chips, onions in a peppered sauce.......mindblowing !!

Fantastic service and the food is amazing they serve the best shakshuka. Love this place

Dog friendly, quirky decor and lovely service. Haggis was outstanding and the steak was amazing. Fabulous!!!

Just had eggs benedict and the most amazing coffee I have ever had. The place is amazing and the food and service is outstanding.

Lovely coffee shop with a decent selection on the menu.

We had gone to Cafe Nero but decided on somewhere new. The coffee was good and the scone was excellent - especially since the waitress warmed it for me. Also I saw some nice breakfast dishes being brought out. I observed a very "picky" customer next to us who seemed to complain about everything and I was very impressed with the gracious manner that the young waitress dealt with her. A good place for breakfast but prices more on par with what you would expect in Edinburgh. Not well soundproofed so a little noisy for a quiet cup of coffee..

Would not go back! walked in asked for a table got pointed to a table from the women behind the desk, i asked for a menu and her response was horrific telling us to sit down in a tone that you should not be speaking to customers in.. we had to walk out absolutey killed the atmosphere would not recommend The women behind the desk is letting this place down, i hope she gets dealt with

Came in today for a small bite to eat and it was delicious! Hats off the chef! atmosphere was lovely and the staff behind the counter were very friendly and had big smiles on their faces which was nice to walk into! Waiting staff were lovely and the whole place was just a nice warm place to be on a dull day. Would 100!% recommend this place to anyone!

We popped in today for breakfast, this is the first time I have visited and would definitely returned. Loved the quirky decor, very friendly staff great selection on the menu and excellent food. Highly recommend!

Arriving for Breakfast we were torn between what to have, however made the choice for a full breakfast and OMG this did not disappoint. The flavours were bursting, the quality of the produce was superb and delighted to hear its is all locally sourced. The care and detail into each item within the breakfast was incredible, so many eateries produce a substandard breakfast - not this one. So, to summarise the eggs were perfect, bacon perfect, toast perfect, sausage perfect, black pudding perfect - all in all utterly perfect. My wife had the veggie breakfast, again flavourful and well presented with a good balance - the veggie sausage was delicious too. My advice is, if you want a breakfast with quality ingredients then this is the place to go. As an aside my only disappointment was I left without buying some of the cakes on display but that means I have to go back again 😀

Lunchtime visit. Busy at walk in. Pleasant welcome and quick service. Food was tasty and well presented. No room for dessert.

This cafe /restaurant is excellent, for food service and staff - also absolutely Dog Friendly, 3 people 2 dogs , super service , even for the dogs . Who were fed and watered without asking the staff - recommend is the Mac cheese . It was very Busy especially as it was Broughty ferry Gala day . Would Definitely go Back and highly recommend

Love this place. Regular coffee shop on our tandem and the best milkshakes I've ever tasted. Staff are fab and the food unbeatable.....what more can I say!😁

Lovely decor and had a huge vegetarian breakfast that I thoroughly enjoyed. Coffee was amazing too 😊

Lovely sunday breakfast listening to great music xx

Amazing breakfast at Gracie’s. Everything is delicious, fresh. Nice seating outside. Service is fantastic. Would be back and 100% recommend

Cannot fault this place! My husband and I came in for breakfast this morning and couldn't believe how busy it was for a Thursday! Our order was taken promptly and we did not have to wait long on food or drinks. We both got the "breakfast skillet" and highly recommend it - delicious! Will definitely be back

Visited here for breakfast after spending the weekend in Broughty and waited on a table. Breakfast menu okay but nothing to rave about. Ordered the special breakfast and scrambled egg and toast. Disappointing not offered what type of bread you wanted and served brown which was quite dry. Husband's pot of tea arrived and his milk was off when he informed the waitress she took away his cup binging him a new one with some milk, so one cup of tea less from teapot!. No apology and felt it was our fault for mentioning it. Feel it is quite overpriced.

Excellent place to eat , staff are so friendly and food is top notch , well done guys and gals , we will be back 😊.

My daughter took us here, having raved about it . It lives up to the hype ,great coffee & the scones all warm & delicious . I recommend the red velvet cake, too . Made to feel welcome & had a good atmosphere . Will definitely be coming back again when visiting my daughter .

Went in for tea decides to eat food amazing

There curry and lentil soup was absolutely brilliant will be back for more.

Visited here today and was met by a young waitress who was really quite rude. Made a point of stating about tables that she had said not to sit at, which mistakenly we did, then made a point of telling us our mistake in front of the whole cafe. Was really nippy with a lot of the other customer as well. Making comments under her breath. Will not be back.

Cosy atmosphere, great service and delicious food 5⭐

Visited Gracies, as a party of three, for lunch on Saturday. On entering, a young female staff member shouted at us to wait outside. Yes, it was a little busy in the foyer, and we wouldnt have minded waiting for people to vacate, but to...

I went for breakfast and it was lovely. I don't like beans, so they gave me an extra rasher of bacon.

Very cute cafe in the Ferry. Excellent coffee, really good food with generous portion sizes and great service, couldn't ask for more really.

Great food, great service, loved it.

Fantastic little find today. Was going to willows who advertise on website that they are a dog friendly cafe, only to be turned away as only allow guide dogs which most shops and cafes do. Looked across road to find this quaint little cafe called gracie's who advertise dog friendly status and they were. Staff were friendly, professional and quick. Food was delicious with a good selection on menu. Even cooked sausages for my dog when asked. Price was reasonable. Will be going back when I next visit Broughty ferry. Highly recommend this cafe. Audrey

Lovely lunch here, sandwiches are great and coffee is lovely. Service is also fab. Its very busy so would suggest getting there just before lunch to secure a table

Food was delicious. Very helpful staff especially regarding allergies and double checked everything for us.

Lovely informal cafe experience in Broughty Ferry for a Sunday morning breakfast. Service very attentive despite the venue filling up. Food tasted fresh and did its job well. Seems popular, and justifiable so based on good food and great service.

Only had coffee service OK. Very eclectic feeling of place.

Visited Gracie’s for the first time the other day and was greeted by the friendly staff. Came for brunch and a coffee and was very impressed with the food. Cafe was nearly full and yet drinks and food were delivered promptly and were delicious! Would...

Great family friendly place my young friend able to breastfeed as felt comfortable

Good spot for lunch/brunch, very busy place but the staff were friendly and organised. Rubens rainbow bagel, milkshake and home bake were all fantastic. Nice decor and clean restaurant. Worth a visit.

Absolutely love the food and drinks on offer here! Always so tasty whenever we visit. Dog friendly too which is a plus for us.

We recently stayed in Broughty Ferry for a week and ate breakfast at Gracie's several times. We found the quality of the food to be excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. We often asked for tweaks on what was set out on the...

Visited today for lunch. The food is great but it took 30mins to come to the table which,when time can be limited at lunchtime,is really too long. The interior is lovely ( bathroom could do with an update though) and it's dog friendly however,the one...
