Mount Coates (77°48′S 162°5′E) is an Antarctic peak, 2,060 metres (6,760 ft) high, just east of Borns Glacier in the Kukri Hills of Victoria Land. It was named by the Western Journey Party, led by Thomas Griffith Taylor, of the British Antarctic Expedition, 1910–13.

It was named after a lifelong friend of Thomas Griffith Taylor, Harold Coates from Oldham, Lancashire, who also sponsored the Siberian ponies on Scott's expedition.
