“ Nice little place with friendly staff. Cinnamon swirls were really yummy. Nice coffee but I'd recommend an extra shot in the long black as it was too weak for my tastes but I do like a stronger coffee so definitely can't mark the guys down for that! ”
“ Best mocha I've had in a while. Lovely place, clean and quiet enough for work. ”
“ Second time at this lovely cafe. My first coffee here was lovely but this time coffee was too bitter; however, maybe I needed to order a stronger sweetener for my taste. The blueberry (I think) crumble Jack was lovely. Service was friendly from both visits. Nice and clean cafe as well. Will definitely be back and would recommend to others. ”
“ My fiancé and I stopped at this cafe after visiting Glasgow Green and the people’s palace. It was more to rest of our feet and have a sit down. It doesn’t look much from the outside but the inside is much nicer. It has low down lamp shades, nice green plants and nice window seating area. We were lucky and got a seat at the window with the sun shining in. We ordered two cappuccinos, caramel wafer brownie and cannoli. The cakes were nice, coffee was delicious, it’s well worth a stop to rest your wee legs! ”
“ Staff are super friendly and the cappuccino had shaved chocolate on top which I though was fun! Also they serve free cereal for all customers, I think it’s a really nice perk ”
“ Have been coming here for a while and love the coffee. Went there today (09/09/25) and was served by a new guy who gave me roasting hot milk without chocolate on top instead of a cappuccino. Hopefully just a training period….. ”
