Coats Paisley is a reception hall which stands at the west end of the High Street in Paisley, Scotland.

The building was the home of Thomas Coats Memorial Baptist Church, colloquially known as the Baptist Cathedral of Europe, until 2018. It has been a dominant feature of the Paisley skyline for over 100 years with its striking crown steeple rising to 60 metres (200 ft) above the ground.[1] The church is a category A listed building.[2]
