Votadini in East Lothian

I went with my husband and a lady friend of ours. We popped in for lunch. Votadini is a lovely coffee shop owned by the extremely friendly Brunton Family. It has a very varied menu. From their famous mince and tatties to home made soups and choice of puddings and ice creams. Old fashioned sweetie shop.for bringing back memories of childhoods lost. This Family friendly shop encourages the customers to bring in their dogs, very pet friendly. With a lovely warm old fashion range fire on the cold days . It's the kind of place where you will want to linger over a coffee and a cake

Absolutely delightful atmosphere with good quality home cooking. Friendly staff with the bonus of a welcoming wood burner.

Very friendly wee place, lovely homely menu, and baking, great coffee. Welcome warm wood stove in the winter

Plain cooking, limited choice of menu, over priced but very friendly good place for a gossip but it is only open for 4 days

Stopped off for coffee on our tour around Dunbar and its neighbouring villages. We were so impressed we returned the next day to sample the cooked breakfast (although it was late dinner) which was gorgeous. Very friendly staff, clean and a very warm welcome awaits any visitor.

Arrived in East Linton this afternoon, after a long drive, desperate for coffee & cake. We came across this wee cafe which was still open at 16.05 plus they also allowed dogs to come in, exactly what we required!! The owner said that they close at 16.30 but would be happy to serve while customers were still in the shop, delightful customer service, speedy & the young waitress brought our coffee & cake quickly with a smile. Food & drink was fab, so don't drive past this wee gem when next in East Linton or the the A1 anywhere near there !!

Went on the Weekend before valentines 2 lovely ladys served us the most delisicous homemade coffee cake and hot lattes sat by an open fire and admire the eclectic mis of china and furniture and the ornate cake stands on the tables lovely atomosphere and will certainly visit should we be passing through very friendly and hospitable

Le temps s'est comme figé dans cette boutique de bonbons où viennent prendre le thé et discuter ensemble à une même table, les villageois. Nous avons extrêmement bien accueillis. La soupe du jour était bonne, et les sandwichs et les scones (j'en ai mangé deux ^_^) délicieux. Pendant qu nous mangions, nous avons vu des dames et des enfants qui venaient acheter une louche de bonbons (ils sont dans des grands pots) et la petite fille de la boutique qui en emportait une poche pour l'école :-). Nous avons bien apprécié cette pause entre Dunbar et Berwick sur le Jogn Muir Way, surtout qu'il pleuvait :-). Nous sommes arrivés assez tard, plus vers 15h que 12h, mais on nous a servis sans souci.

East Linton lies halfway between North Berwick and Dunbar on the John Muir Way. Consequently, it was a convenient place to stop for lunch during our walk. Votadini is a charming traditional tea and coffee shop with a good selection of food at reasonable prices. The shop was clean and tidy and service from the ladies running it was efficient and friendly. We only spent a short time here before resuming our walk but this was a very welcome break.
