Graze Coffee & Chocolate House in East Lothian

We were visiting Dunbar and stopped here for tea and cake. Very efficient and reasonably priced. Nice cake

Seems to be going down hill - toastie was a bit tasteless, cake was terrible - gluten free lime and coconut but so so stale and dry - didn't finish it. Coffee was good. When we mentioned the cake wasn't nice the waitress just smiled - An apology and perhaps it being taken off the bill would have been more appropriate.

Graze Cafe at Dunbar is an excellent place to eat and drink, Fresh Bakery, Delicious Blueberry &lemon Scones and Coffee is super fine, The staff are great, always smiling and pleasant attitude, Located ah High st, Dunbar , Feels like authentic Cafe ambiance, Every time I go to visit Dunbar never come back without popping in to this Cafe , I highly recommend, Osman Coskun

We called in for lunch on a day trip to Dunbar whilst on holiday. Graze is well-placed on the High Street and looks quite small from the street; it appeared to be very busy but when we entered we were shown to a table at the rear - it's much more spacious than it first appears with plenty of tables in a couple of back rooms and an outside space. We both ordered the flat breads - chicken for my husband and grilled halloumi for me - and they were delicious being well-filled with the main ingredient plus houmous and salad, with tortilla chips and salad on the side. The coffee was excellent and the Bounty hot chocolate was lovely - very sweet (to be expected) but with a definite flavour of coconut. Service was good - friendly and attentive but not too much - and, although it was busy, we didn't have to wait long for our order. We'll definitely call in again for lunch next time we're in Dunbar.

I just enhoyed the best French toast I've ever had at Graze. Delicious coffee and hot chocolate too. Lots of space inside and brilliant, friendly staff.

Wonderful lunch in every aspect, from the warm welcome to customers, the high quality coffee , the delicious savoury food, and the baking. I will never forget the empire biscuits which are made in the premises-they are the best I have ever tasted! I would strongly recommend Grazie Coffee House. Not to be missed!

Stopped off for a coffee and cake which were both delicious. Staff were extremely friendly and brought our dogs a bowl of water. Ice cream looked so nice had to have a tub each which was exceptional. Definitely will be calling again.

I stopped by here the other week. I wasn’t sure exactly what I was craving, apart from something sweet. I seen they had pastries on the shop window which is what drawn me in. I ended up going with a couple. I got the almond croissant and another pastry with chocolate and hazelnut which I can’t remember the name of. I was asked if I wanted a drink which I initially said no to but then I seen they did bounty hot chocolates so I got that as well. The woman that served me was pleasant enough but gave off slightly awkward vibes. Although maybe it was me that made her uncomfortable. I learnt that many of the bakery/sweet treat items are bought in but they do make their own scones and the soups and light lunches are all homemade. Everything I bought I felt was reasonably priced. I decided to take away. Firstly I had the hot chocolate which was pretty good. I didn’t get strong flavours of bounty but I suppose you don’t want it overpowering do you. Equally I don’t remember it having a complex flavour profile. It was more of an ordinary hot chocolate. It was served just at the right temperature and was well presented with cream on top. I chose not to have lid to preserve the appealing presentation. I feel that it was lacking the desired velvety texture and was maybe a bit on the watery side. The pastries were a little disappointing. The flavours of the fillings were nice but the texture was a bit stodgy. It was definitely lacking the ideal lightness you look for in a pastry. It was almost a bit doughy and heavy, and certainly lacking the layers. A few years ago I would be more complimentary of these but my standards have changed since I’ve had many excellent pastries over the years. Don’t get me wrong I still gobbled it up and didn’t leave a crumb. Overall I believe a 3 star is fair. Perhaps my score would improve if I had sat in and tried some of their main offerings so I suppose it’s a reason to come back.

I finally checked out Graze after hearing great things from friends, it's nice to support local and Graze did not disappoint! Great atmosphere and the staff are super friendly. I tried the hot smoked salmon and my partner had the steak burger, both delicious—fresh, flavourful, and beautifully presented. The coffee was perfect too! Highly recommend!

Simply the best cafe in Scotland. Lovely food, friendly staff and Del Amitri’s greatest hits playing gently in the background.

I love stopping at Graze whenever I’m in dunbar! Staff are all friendly and welcoming and the cakes are 10/10!!

Waited 30 minutes for our food. The expensive steak burger in a bun was dry as an old boot and by the time it arrived my tea had went cold.

This coffee shop is perfectly situated on High Street, five minutes walk from the railway station. A good selection of cakes and decent coffee. We were lucky to visit on a nice warm day, so sat at one of the outside tables and were able to see all that was going on in that part of the town.

Went to graze for an iced coffee, staff were absolutely clueless and clearly had no training on how to make coffee’s. I ordered an iced caramel coffee which contained less than a centimetre of coffee and very little ice. There was no effort whatsoever to make it nice or presentable. Caused me to have a terrible headache all day. The shop has a rule of £5 limit on card. My coffee was £4.25 and I don’t carry cash so I was forced to buy something else. I bought a vegan brownie and was charged a ridiculous price of £4 for it, and it was not even the size of my pinky and was raw and tasted awful. I am extremely disappointed and will not be returning again.

this was a great find. Excellent food and great service. The choice was breakfast was not usual full Scottish, instead wise and well prepared dishes.

I usually don't write reviews but felt the need to say these. really unhappy with the service. I had to wait to order despite the place not being busy. the lady at the counter made eye contact with me, seeing that I want to order but continued on folding napkins. the food and coffee was average, I ate it because I was really hungry not because I enjoyed it, otherwise I would walk out. generally not happy with the service provided, wouldn’t be back again.

Thanks for the most yummy honey flatbread with halloumi today. Just so much more than I was expecting. Speedy service and a friendly face - as we always get from you all. Tx :-)

A beautiful cafe, perfectly located. Food and hot drinks are lovely and the customer service is excellent. I really enjoyed the homebaking.

We had soup with bread tea coffee and cakes spot on really good food.

Friendly staff, quick service, delicious food. We tried the eggs benedict with bagel and the scone.

Pretty disappointed. I get you have breakfast menus, but I never get the fact places don’t stop serving at specific times. Despite being 10 mins past the cut off. Ordered from the lunch menu, got given the wrong order. Specifically asked if it was the correct one - chicken instead of halloumi. I’m dairy intolerant. It was halloumi. Slow service and not particularly happy to have customers. Won’t be back.

Perfect breakfast in Dunbar. Capuccino is really nice and the sweets too. The service was fast and kind.

We had planned to have coffe and cakes and were taken to our table very quickly, unfortunately we sat for 15 minutes and were completely ignored. Staff looked at the table and avoided eye contact with us. There were a couple of ladies who were seated before us and they were served immediately. We left without being served. We have been to Graze a few times but we will not be back and after that experience we certainly will not be recommending Graze to anyone.

Grand service and food quality. Bit steep for a snack (£3+ for a scone / baked good)

Pricey but very very average food.

The lovely staff were very accommodating to a group of 14 turning up on a Saturday morning! The service was amazing, especially considering there was only two of them. And I can't recommend the luxury hot chocolate enough. I had it with oat milk and will have to go back for another...

You have to visit here. It's absolutely gorgeous, the staff are amazing the food is 👏 amazing. Well worth a visit.

My go to Coffee Shop when I’m in Dunbar. An absolute treasure. Whether I eat in, or alfresco, this gem always delivers. Food superb. Staff fast, friendly, and very efficient. A warm and inviting small cafe. I can’t recommend highly enough.

Felt like I was sitting in a corridor, bench seats uncomfortable. Not a great choice for coeliacs, baked potato small and bland, toastie was average, tortillas stale. Hot chocolate not chocolatey enough, service was fine, everything else a little disappointing. Expensive what what you get, do t think I’ll be back.

We popped in looking for something light for lunch, so just had some very tasty scones, with tea and coffee. Great location on the high street, with ample seating through the back and outside. Nice ambience and very pleasant staff.

Great cafe for a light lunch. Did I mention the cakes ? 5* for the cakes and desserts. Many thanks.

Went here for brunch with a friend of mine. It has been a number of years since I was last here. First thing that I would say is that the service is excellent. They have an extensive menu with very good quality food. The standout for me was the coffee, served in perfect sized cups not the huge mugs or soup bowls that you get in a lot of places and seved at the correct temp. - FIVE STAR. I also liked the way that they served the tea in china cups and all laid out on a plate, very stylish. Next to the food, my dining partner had a cheese and ham toastie, great tasting, good quality and beautifully served with a little salad and some crisps. I had the cheese sandwich again beautifully served and with very tasty brown bread, I loved it. Overall a great place with excellent friendly attentive service. Well worth a visit.

Popped in for a light bite to eat today and as always, staff are so polite, organised and welcoming. We sat in the sunny yard and enjoyed a delicious smoked salmon bagel and a Greek salad baguette, both which were beautifully presented and very filling! We washed it down with the best chai latte and a huge hot chocolate with cream and toasted marshmallows. Definitely worth a visit if you’re passing. Thanks Graze staff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Great for breakfast, the almond croissants are amazing, so too the poached eggs on toast. Friendly staff and good vibe.

ABSOLUTELY INSANE PRICING. Came for a quick munch with my family, the place is nicely presented and could be seen as a luxury ‘cafe’ but these prices are verging on the same as a restaurants. Poor waitresses are swept off their feet but clearly trying their best. You’d be as well chucking your money away before you spend the asked price of a sandwich in this shop with store bought bread and a handful of selected fillings (anymore is 80 pence extra!) don’t forget less than a hand sized portion of salad leaves (if you can call them that) and one tomato.

Extremely friendly, welcoming and efficient staff, despite being very busy. Great coffee. Highly recommended.

Très bon petit déjeuner, service impeccable et le personnel très gentil ! ☕ 🍰

We had already been recommended to eat here, we had the best bacon & poached egg roll (we have ever had)!!! Great little courtyard out the back. Very friendly staff, would definitely recommend 😁

Amazing little cafe on Dunbar High Street. Dog friendly seating through a side entrance (so glad we asked inside but a sign on the door would of been great too as we nearly walked past). Lovely, welcoming young ladies serving. Beautiful, tasty food and coffees. Gorgeous selection of cakes too. Great setting outback. Just perfect for what we needed with our little pooch.

We enjoyed a wonderful breakfast at this place. We shared a Scottish salmon on sourdough with mashed avocado and two poached eggs. Delicious. A mars bar with rice crispies on caramel chocolate. And a granola with fruit and yoghurt.

The Graze Boxes are fabulous - beautifully presented, imaginative and delicious food and very generous servings.The judges at the Stenton Flower Show were very impressed. A great way to serve a business lunch or a fancy picnic.

Had the french toast which was great. Friendly staff and lovely atmosphere. Would definitely recommend.

Took a wee run in the car to Dunbar at the weekend. Fantastic welcome at Graze we sat outside in their lovely little courtyard with our dog. The staff were very friendly and we were served promptly even though they were really busy. We had delicious homemade scones, hubby had a piping hot latte and I had the best pot of Earl Grey Tea I've had in a very long time! We took away some of their homemade traybakes for later, Peppermint slice and Caramel Shortcake 😋😋😋😋😋😋😋 Graze we will be back soon . Thank you x

The food is lovely. The surroundings are pretty good. The staff, not so good. They mean well, but they are either not trained well or not supervised well. A waitress that mumbles quietly when reading back the order. Empty plates left on the table for 20 minutes. A general feeling that the staff don't care. This is not the staff's problem; it's a management problem. Management: go and grab a coffee at Espresso Black up the road to see how it should be done. I'd happily pay your reasonably high prices if the service was better. As it is, it's not great value for money.

Not been into Graze for a while and after being reminded of its homemade scones by the recent article in the Sunday Post by the Scone Spy we had a trip down today. Must make the trip more often still great service and friendly staff. Plus still the best slab of rocky road.

Lovely little seaside eatery. Visited here for lunch with a friend and we were lucky enough to get a spot in their sunny courtyard. Staff were very friendly and attentive and we both enjoyed a tasty hot smoked salmon baguette. Will be back soon to sample some of their delicious looking cake selection!

EXTORTINATE!!! 2 Coffees 1 slice of cake and 1 traybake cost £15. Travel far and wide this is the most expensive coffee and cake. Even tops fantastic establishments in central Edinburgh.

We called on a wet Sunday morning hoping that a family group cycling the Coast and Castles route could stop by for coffee and a cake. We offered to eat outside on the back patio which was completely empty but the cafe staff refused to...

We needed a coffee and a scone in Dunbar, and this place looked nice. Staff were very friendly, and the service was good. Unfortunately the only scones were cheese scone (they were nice) but my preference would have been fruit! For two scones and two...

My partner and I live in Dunbar so we have visited Graze on several occasions. It’s one of our favourite place to go if we’re out for lunch at the weekend - even if it’s just a quick bowl of soup and a coffee. The...

Lovely little cafe. Welcoming attentive staff. Several vegan options for lunch and cakes! Decaf coffee great! Would recommend the vegan brownie, lovely and moist!!

I visited with my 94yr old father one afternoon a couple of weeks ago. The service and food was excellent. I had to nip out to do an errand, but when I went back to collect my father, it was closed. (I hadn’t checked the...

I have visited a number of times since I have moved into the area. Have found this to be the best coffee shop on the high street. Daily home made soup is a winner

Two of us had breakfast here. The food is good; the service not so good. Immediately on arrival the waitress marked our arrival time on a mat on the table. The impression: don't outstay your welcome. Waitress warned us a rectangular plate was hot, but...

Best place for coffee and cake. The staff are wonderful, I love this place, can’t do enough for you. See you all soon, vonny n kev

Friendly and welcoming staff. Good coffee and tasty breakfast. Quickly served. Busy on a Wednesday morning, would recommend.

This was our first and last visit to Graze today. The coffee and scones were lovely, however, the staff were not very welcoming. The minute we had finished our scones the plates and napkins were taken off the table. We were still drinking our coffees...

Fabulous lunch, all freshly prepared food and very tasty. Staff are friendly and welcoming, would definitely recommend!

What a lovely coffee shop visiting Dunbar for the day with our 2 grandchildren. Special mention for Eve she made Jude a happy boy with a large slice of cake that he finished. Will be coming back again very soon.

Great staff, Good coffee, Highly recommended. Staff were polite and friendly whilst serving me. Good food too!

We were a little behind schedule and arrived as they were closing at 4pm but what a welcome we received. The wonderful owner and her staff couldn’t do enough for us with coffees, cakes and delicious ice creams and sorbet served up past their regular...

Stopped off here on our coast and castles bike ride. Very welcoming from friendly staff, we had the soup & toastie special followed by coffee & peanut brownie, all very tasty. Friendly professional staff with great food, would definitely recommend.

We’ve eaten here twice recently. We find the predominantly female staff to be lovely and attentive. The main menus has enough choice and is quite innovative and the food on both occasions has been very nice all round. I had a coffee and walnut cake...

There are a wide choice in Dunbar of coffee shops so pleased we chose Graze and would like to praise them for their exceptional service and quality of both coffee and cakes it would be very hard to find a better one in Scotland !

Went there for morning tea and cake. After a nice harbour/beach walk, we were in need of something nice, and this was the place to get it. The tea comes in a big pot, that allows lots of refilling of the porcelain cups, combined with great cake, in lovely quiet sunny courtyard, making it the perfect spot for morning tea. At lunch time we looked for somewhere else to eat, but found nothing more enticing, so went back to the court yard for lunch. Service was great, food was great, ambiance was great, they accept dogs, what more could you want. We would return next time we're in Dunbar.

Absolutely delicious. If you are in dunbar, visit graze coffee...

First class service every time. Food is exceptional and cannot fault the staff. 5 stars always 👍

Perfect place to relax and eat something. Gluten free options available.

Always 5*. Lovely food, good service and great ambience- eat in or in the garden. Yummy

The kind of café where l, if you're a DPD driver, tired and on a brief 20 minute break, the tables - even if completely empty - are "only for customers I'm afraid." Also a £5 card minimum which is a nifty little trick. You be the judge.

Great cafe with lovely coffee. We had amazing lime and coconut cake, and good, polite and prompt service. A local chap on the street told us there was a courtyard out the back instead of sitting on the street - it was a fab little...

We visit regularly and staff always offer a warm welcome. Very organised and food is varied and delicious. The courtyard is lovely to sit out in on warmer days but also caters for colder days! Always very clean efficient and with prompt friendly service. Would...

Lovely coffee shop, great food, nice staff

The most gorgeous little family ran cafe with so many freshly made sweet treats to choose from. Beautiful coffee & service with a smile every single time! I highly recommend their Graze boxes too - so aesthetically pleasing and such a special touch for any occasion. Thank you Lorraine & Martin, see you again soon!

Took shelter from the rain here and got great hot coffee and food. Sweet treats are great too!

"Everything I had was yummy, I would definitely like to come back here." Lorea, aged 8, from Musselburgh

Great coffee shop lovely staff great food cakes to die for!

Very nice,hot chocolate was just warm.

We had coffee and cake, which where to die for! The girls serving us where honestly fantastic with a great attitude for it only just being 10 o’clock , really made our day! Well done to those two and the staff who make the cakes,...

First visit to Dunbar and what a find Graze was. We stopped for lunch en-route to Edinburgh on a cold Sunday afternoon. We were greeted by friendly attentive staff. The place was warm and cosy. Prompt service. Mr. enjoyed combi of tasty soup and toastie....

We left without an order; this was one of the only places open in Dunbar on Sunday afternoon to warm up with a bowl of soup and a cuppa. Too bad not to have enough indoor space.

Popped in here for a takeaway lunch. We had soup and bread along with an almond croissant and melted snowman empire biscuit! The shop was lovely, the staff friendly and efficient and the soup was delicious.

Lovely, nice decor, food delisious, will return thanks.

Excellent place to stop off for a bite to eat. I had smoked salmon & poached egg on sourdough. Lovely food and coffee.

It was busy but the staff where lovely nothing to much trouble xxc

A must for a visit when in Dunbar. The Empire biscuits in Graze are the best ever! Great restaurant.

… real melted chocolate, marshmallows and strawberries! Great find - lovely friendly atmosphere. Excellent choice of quality food including healthy options! Definitely on my daughter’s ‘return here’ list when she visits.

Wanted a light bite after walking our dog on the beach. Told that our dog was welcome in the courtyard at the rear of the building. Went down a passageway and was welcomed by a young waitress who showed us to a table. Gave ua...

Did not try food or chocolate. My partner ordered two Lattes and they both came very very hot. So much so the coffee was bitter because of the heat. The guy who served her was very miserable almost put out it was an effort to serve ! A couple days later we went back because all other coffee shops were closed and hoped we would have someone else serve us. The coffee was better about the right temperature but the guy was still miserable. Won’t be using again because of the experience. Response. Hi Lorraine, We can’t remember the exact days but only one man appeared to be serving so probably not to hard to work out. Possibly had grey beard. I see from your reviews this has been mentioned before. When out buying a coffee to enjoy you don’t then want to have to spend time trying to find a manager to complain about a member of the team’s attitude. You can hardly raise it with the person with the attitude ! During these difficult times we enjoyed fantastic customer service and coffee from all the other coffee shops in Dunbar and enjoyed cakes and conversation in a local bakery. It’s costs nothing to be polite at any time.

Thoroughly enjoyed it Nice menu good variety available. Pleasant dining areas bright and very organised, staff very attentive. Premises spotlessly clean. Definitely return ... soon Ooh! Nice selection cakes We thought very good value and quality

Well this is a must visit when you are in Dunbar, Was there on Saturday with my Wife and Grandson Leo. Food was excellent and the staff was so friendly and could not do enough for us, Leo loved playing with the toys Must try is the Empire Biscuits they are simply just Delicious. Best Empire Biscuit I have ever tasted ,Cant wait for my return visit with my Grandson when we visit East Links Farm next time, Big thank you from all three of us and keep the good work up. Regards John and Angela Carlin, Leo Edinburgh

Well this is a must visit when in Dunbar, was there yesterday excellent food, staff could not do enough, must try is the Empire biscuits best I have ever tasted. Can't wait for my return visit with my Granson when we visit East Links farm...

Great find looks small from the road but there are seats at the back and lovely, sunny courtyard at the back, good food and very good service would highly recommend

An excellent little cafe stop in the heart of Dunbar. We stopped here for a late breakfast on a bike pack trip back to Edinburgh. The staff were super friendly and very accommodating when we asked about vegan options, which they were able to offer....

Sat on the court yard as we had the dog busy wee place the staff are polite service good lovely cup of tea and a latte and a bit of cake love my tea so the pot if it had bit more water in it better but a lovely place to go of on Dunbar thank you

We just arrived in Dunbar around lunchtime. Never having been before didn't know what to expect. We stumbled upon this Graze and were not disappointed. A really friendly welcome, excellent food and selection of scones and cakes. Looks small from the front but don't be...

Early start up the A1 and desperate for coffee.. but is anywhere open at 9am on a Sunday morning? Yes! Graze is open and the charming staff are ready with great coffee and fab breakfasts to set us up for the day. Lovely light, bright clean space. The cakes looked *amazing* but even I couldn’t do cake so early in the day…. sadly!! 110% worth a detour off the A1!

Good cup of coffee and nice food. Couldn't fault the service. Great wee place, will be back.
