One of Hamilton’s longest running cafes and it’s easy to see why. It’s exactly what you expect from a good cafe: consistently great coffee, tasty food, quick service and comfortable dining.
This is a narrow cafe with some street seating, about 10 indoor tables and a large outdoor area at the back which feels like a secret oasis in the middle of the city.
Service is speedy and friendly. Coffee’s come quickly. Food is tasty and they do waffles and fantastic pasta as well as the usual café breakfast/lunch bits.
Expect to pay about $18-25 for a meal for one excluding drinks.

A must visit for Hamilton. Cosy little cafe with sensational food. Love seeing the regulars catching up on the weekends here. Good coffee.
That addictive aglio olio is out of this world! Had mine with bacon. They publish their recipe online, I have since made it but using less pasta as I love making it extra garlicky. The waffle was also very good with the zingy lemon curd.

Very good iced coffee. Husband approved! Perhaps the only cafe I've encountered so far, using metal straws. Ordered their waffles and Aglio Olio with prawns. Waffles was good. The lemon curd are used sparingly and nicely spread out so it's not over powering. The pasta was flavourful.

Every road trip needs a good food stop, Scotts is the place if your roadie goes through Hamilton. Bloody good coffee and great food, including some great dishes with what I think is an Eastern European twist. Highly recommended.

Beautiful breakfast and a great coffee ☕.
The garden seating outside in the back was a great place to relax amongst the greenery and eat. Friendly staff and a great atmosphere. 👍👍😊

Honestly the food here was really good but the service was not good. The waiter serving us came with food and put it on the table without saying anything. There was no “here you go” or anything, not even a smile either.

All of the food was delicious and friendly staff/service. Only thing I would say is we sat at the tables near the back of the cafe and could smell the dishwasher which wasn't very pleasant at times. Maybe sit outside or to the front of the cafe if you go.

Very friendly staff and quality food in a relaxed modern setting. Plenty of outdoor seating and a beautiful courtyard at the back to enjoy a coffee under the sun. Their buckwheat waffle with bacon, banana and salted butterscotch is light, delicious and moorish. Their presto pasta is flavorful, garlicky but well balanced. Definitely one of the better cafes in Hamilton.

Always love dining at Scotts. Fresh food and always so tasty. Had the Rarakor with Salmon Gravlax with scrambled eggs rather than the menu poached eggs which they were more than happy to accommodate

Me And my partner have recently moved to the Hamilton region after long stints living overseas in various countries and we dine out regularly, since moving to Hamilton we have tried in excess of twenty different eating establishments and find the only one we have kept as a regular is Scott’s, the reason being is the atmosphere when you walk in is warm, we are always greeted by genuine friendly smiles and good communication from staff, our orders are taken promptly and the food and coffee is delivered promptly The food that I have there is amazing and so is the coffee every single time
For me this place ticks all the boxes for me which is atmosphere, coffee, food, service and pricing. Thanks a lot to all the staff at Scott’s for making our dining experience with you amazing every time.
