Good vegan options but one of our coffes had cow milk instead of oat.

Wanted to go like the opening hours said 10:00 am. But it was closed. We then ate at the wetherspoon on the other side. After that we got something togo. The food was very tasty. But one of our coffees was pretty sure with cows milk instead of oat.

Pros: Tasty, Many vegan options

Cons: Not standardize opening hours, Not fully vegan, A clear fault in our order

Finally visited!

Have been meaning to go for ages. Only got coffee and cake but will be back for brunch as soon as possible. Gorgeous place, lovely staff, and my coffee&cake were both divine! What a find!

Edit: went back a week later to try a delicious bagel and more cakes... got some fudge too! What a treasure this place is, the cakes are amazing!


Edit - if you follow them on insta, they share a story each day with free coffee for a name... my name came up today! Got a cherry blossom matcha and bought a strawberry shortcake too 😍

Delicious bagels

Went for brunch today and was excited to see all the vegan options they had! We both got bagels with vegan bacon and avocado/lettuce but they also had one with vegan ham and did a vegan ploughman’s too!
The bagels were delicious so I’ll definitely be going back. It’s convenient that it’s just opposite the train station too :).

Lovely little lunch place !

Was looking for somewhere to grab a sandwich for a vegan and non vegan and this place was perfect! Multiple vegan options for ciabattas etc as well as vegan milk and cakes

Pros: Good for both vegan and non vegan

Lovely little cafe by the station

Right in the heart of Paisley is the train station, which comes in handy as a means of escape. But before you do, try and pop in to Kettle Black. They have a few vegan options and their coffee is satisfying. I like an oat milk latte and often on my travels, I'll find that the coffee is too weak or just a bit too bitter. The coffee at Kettle Black, however, was ideal. I asked the wait staff for a recommendation on food choice and decided to go with the avocado lime, bacon and chilli flake toasted bagel. You can add their soup of the day for £1 and you get a small mug of it alongside the bagel, or any other lunch option you choose. I love this option as often I just want a little soup on the side, instead of a full price big bowl! All in all, I found this cafe very enjoyable and would recommend it to any weary travellers. A nice way to recharge before getting on the train!

Pros: Location , Good additional soup option , Lovely coffee and music!

Cons: A choice of bagel type would be great. Sesame! , Perhaps a tad over-lit, Seats a little hard on one's bottom!

Incredible!

I've lived in Paisley my whole life and let me tell yous finding interesting varied vegan options when eating local is... hard. Thankfully Kettle Black has tons of brilliant options and most of their menu can be veganised! The vegan ploughmans and the bagels are to die for and they always have brilliant vegan options for baked goods too😄All their coffees and teas can have vegan milk (no extra charge!) but I really recommend the iced teas personally. They also do delivery if you can't make it into the town centre.

Pros: Tons of vegan options , The cafe is really cute, The staff are lovely
