Cafe Cognito Reviews

I like the hot chocolate but i found a small tissue inside it...

Delicious coffee along with a HUGE caramel shortcake and raspberry white chocolate tart

Lovely ambiance. Food was a little disappointing, but the coffee and cake selection was great. No many gluten free options though.

Very tasty food and excellent coffee. The cakes looked great though I didn't have any, and the whole atmosphere was very cool and modern. I thought that the nail salon at the back of the seating area was a bit strange, but that was the only detractor to a very nice experience overall.

Wonderful coffee relaxed outdoor area with heaters and blankets. Very good food and coffee

Excellent food, nice little cafe very friendly staff. Would fully recommend!

Very good coffee and it comes with homemade tablet! Win-win!

Excellent coffee and the snacks are very tasty. Really great to have this in the neighbourhood

Best cake in town without doubt. A bit out of your way but so worth it!

Great coffee, good pastries and fantastic staff. Sit in or take away, the coffee is served with a piece of tablet!

Cakes and coffee were good. Staff friendly, only dropping one star because they are very limited on indoor seating space. Some salon or something is taking up all the space at the back. Prefer their new outlet at queens cross church.

Good selection of breakfast and lunch items. Coffee is really good! Friendly staff.

Although food is expensive and there s not much seating indoors on busy days. But it hands down always brings me back to the cafe, food and coffee is great and there is a nail bar within the cafe too!

Really good sandwiches and extremely tasty cakes. Only qualm is its a bit pricey to sit in.

Great coffee , warm ambience and yummy complimentary fudge with coffee. The best !

This is a cute little coffee shop....with a nail salon in the back! Ideal

Service was good, atmosphere was great and food excellent.

Delicious bowl of hearty soup and lovely fresh brown bread to accompany in a cosy little contemporary cafe with great service and pleasant staff. Definitely Recommend.

Great food -sandwiches and bakes but lacking in indoor space. And why the nail bar?

Great little coffee shop, welcoming atmosphere and staff. Large selection of foods, drinks and ice-cream. Able to eat-in or take out. The addition of the Nail Bar in the back is a really nice touch and adds another quirk to this little store.

You get good sandwiches but the seated area outside is very small

Tonight Cafe Cognito was filled of Salsa, meringue and Son!!!!
Tucan was doing a Pop-up event. Amazing REAL Latin american food in Aberdeen. Our soud and heart was in every bite!!!
I understand it will be happening for the next 3 weeks. Please, go and enjoy!!!
Thanks Cafe Cognito for giving a chance to a great Cook to show their passion through food!!!

Good coffee & nice food. A bit cramped with limited seating.

Great coffee, fantastic muffins and in a relaxing atmosphere

Lovely service, vibrant and busy atmosphere. Cakes etc are exceptional.

It's great a very friendly and helpful cafe love it .

Amazing athmosphere, cheap prices, tasty drinks. Best cafe in Aberdeen.

Lovely local cafe with outside seating. Good selection of food and drinks. Nice to go local rather a chain coffee place !

If I could give it 10 out of 5 then I would. Best cafe in Aberdeen, coffee is tasty and it comes with a square of tablet!

The location isn't great but the real surprise is once you sit down (if you manage to find suitable seating because it's soooo damned cramped inside) and get ready to order, you soon realise how noisy this place is, not due to the patrons but due to the incessant banging of utensils and that annoying coffee machine that somehow requires the servers to keep banging the "spoon" against something metal. Why can't they simply make provision for their noise to be in an isolated area out of the hearing reach of customers baffles me.....SO IF YOU ENJOY NOISY BANGING PLEASE VISIT THIS DUMP.

A bit claustrophobic inside, not for me; I didn't feel relaxed in there.

Excellent food in a lovely setting, I ll definitely be back

Love the coffee from here and the piece of tablet you get with it!

Small, chic. Great selection of ice-cream and on premises bakes. Lovely service but not that comfortable seating

The food and coffee is great here. It is a little cramped inside with the nail bar booth though.

Best cheese board we've ever had. Super friendly staff. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Staff, service and food are all first class. A very nice place with a great atmosphere.

Small and cosy, with a great selection of home bakes and hot drinks to enjoy

Not a good atmosphere when I went to this establishment.Went to one further up the street called Orka,had a nice coffee with pleasant staff and quick service

Just popped in for a coffee with a friend. The staff were lovely as is the venue. A bit confused by the nail salon in there but the coffee and brownie were fantastic! Love this place and would definitely recommend!

Delicious tray bakes, cakes and ice reams along with awesome service. Thoroughly recommend

Great place for breakfast and snacks - wait times can be a little high but only due to the constant stream of customers

Good consistent coffee for very good price comparing to others. Food tastey but somewhat pricey

Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, great teas - especially the goji berry and pomegranate!

This is a nice little cafe, minutes away from the city centre. Everything was delicious but it is quite pricey for what you get.

Lovely Cafe .....made my day with the teddy on my Latte ...victoria sponge was delish

I was absolutely gutted to be greeted by a rude server today. Older woman who had to be honest a pretty bad attitude. After clearly noticing me reading the main menu I went to order and was sternly told they did not have a full menu. More

Quirky with a cute little card stall and some impressive meringues. I recommend giving the affragato coffee a try with your choice of ice cream flavour- you have to ask specifically, but the staff were very accommodating.

Great place to hangout. Nice coffee too. We had meetup with friends here at the back of the cafe and it's fantastic.

Good food, good service, decent prices, but the cafe is quite small and the small tables aren't suitable for families.

Lovely little place with nice staff and a nail bar in the back too

Great selection of cakes & traybakes as well as baguettes etc for toasting. It was really nice to be sitting outside although you were protected on 3 sides. The only issue was lack of seating space inside. I had a warm scone which was nicely warmed on the griddle, not heated in the microwave, nice touch.

Great cafe with a fine selection of drinks and food. Seating could be improved but other that everything is about as perfect as you could get.

I went with my 8 month old and a friend but could barely find space to sit. No highchairs available amd certainly no space for a pushchair. I wouldnt go back for the reason that they dont cater for mum/dads and little ones.

I cant complain about the actual lunch I did enjoy my toastie!

A nice wee spot for a coffee with friends or for reading a book in the corner. Shame about their scrambled eggs- a wee bit cold and rubbery

Wow what a gem of a place! It's small but cosy! Their coffee and cakes are to die for. Well worth a visit

Great for a coffee and a cake in relaxed surroundings.
