Coldstream (Scottish Gaelic: An Sruthan Fuar) is a town and civil parish in the Scottish Borders area of Scotland.

A former burgh, Coldstream is the namesake of the Coldstream Guards, a regiment in the British Army, so called because they marched from Coldstream to help restore the British Monarchy in 1660.
