Great vegan breakfast

Cute little cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Good range of vegan options. We had the vegan full Scottish breakfast which had a great selection of items. Oat, soy and almond milk available.
It was very popular when we visited with every table full but we didn’t have to wait long for food.
Lovely, friendly staff too.

Pros: Good options, Quick service, Friendly staff

Great and ambitious vegan dishes!

The menu is small and has vegan versions of all three main dishes. We got the breakfast burrito, the vegan blt and a vegan roll with vegan black pudding. Everything was delicious! And the coffee was good too. Service was quick and friendly. Highly recommended for everyone looking for a hearty breakfast.

Pros: Great food, Nice menu setup, no special requests needed, Nice environment

Very tasty

I had the vegan burrito which was very tasty. The staff was really friendly and fast. 3 stars, because it was very hot and stifling. If you can, then better sit outside.

Lovely breakfast burrito

I had a vegan breakfast burrito and it was very nice! Had a choice of hot sauces: medium, hot, garlic and Smokey.

Good feed.

Had the vegan breakfast burrito and vegan filled roll. Was all tasty and good amount of fillings. The burrito and really tasty with the Smokey chilli sauce. Oat milk coffee was good. Will definitely be going back next time we are in Glasgow.

Pros: Couple of vegan breakfast options., Good coffee., Tasty food.

Cons: Only a couple of options.

go next door instead

Tiniest lattes and the driest vegan full Scottish I’ve ever had, beige plate. The serving of beans was literally not even a full teaspoon! And it cost £13, just awful

Great place just needs some more options!

Had a lovely breakfast here but I must admit that the main selling point for me was that it was open earlier than other spots in the area. The theme is lovely and it was really nice to listen to some 50s music, the staff were also really lovely and gave me tips for my trip to Glasgow that I ended up following through with and enjoying. Only knocking it down a star because the vegan options are quite limited.

Pros: Lovely staff , Quick service

Cons: Not a lot of vegan options

Blew my expectations out of the water!

Because this place is a coffee shop, I didn’t expect to order food here. On the day of my visit, their soup of the day was vegan. I tried a bowl, and it blew my expectations out of the water. It was a delicious pumpkin curry, with just the right amount of spice. And the heaping chunk of bread they gave on the side was heavenly! To top it all off, it’s a great price for the soup and bread combo. I was stuffed, and had only finished half of my helping. Love this place!

Pros: Delicious food, Friendly staff, Great price

Far better options very closeby

I met (non-vegan) friend here, who told me there was a vegan menu. As someone who frequents this area, j was interested to try it.
The first thing I was aware of is the place lacks soul. It was a bit dark and there was a strong smell of bacon in the air, which I didn’t enjoy. It was also cold because the door was left open.
Anyway, let’s get Into the food offering. There’s a total of 7 items on the menu, ranging from soup to beans on toast :/
I went for the cauliflower and butternut squash curry (£7), which wasn’t great. Too bland to with no real flavour. Maybe I should have chosen something different because this didn’t do it for me.
Good they’ve put together a vegan menu but there are far, far better options very close to here.
Can’t recommend.

Okay coffee and nice vegan sandwiches

The coffee here is okay, but there is much better coffee to be had in the city centre. They have a nice vegan menu though with a cheap soup and some sandwiches. Definitely a good option for a small lunch or breakfast.

Pros: Separate and nice vegan menu
