Fantastic little cafe. Good selection of food and drink at probably the best prices in the city. Save money and contribute to a social enterprise, can't be better than that.
Super social enterprise. Nice food and clean bright surroundings.
Had the pleasure of eating there with some friends after the All under one banner march for Independence. Food was beautifully presented wholesome and fresh and best of all you have a choice of leaving extra cash to feed the homeless. An absolutely fantastic idea
A great little cafe with a good heart, offering a 'Pay it Forward' scheme to provide free meals to homeless people We arrived very late for breakfast when most of the options had been scoffed, but met an incredibly helpful response and a delicious improvised breakfast was concocted for us. Fast and friendly service.
A nice wee place that is also a social enterprise and equal-opportunity employer. Handy for the High Court, and service is reasonably quick. Portions were slightly small but prices were reasonable. Soup and New York deli sandwich were good. Coffee could be better.
Met my friend here for coffee, a great wee place and run by charities, it was nice to see people with disabilities serving and having a nice place to work in. We'll definitely be meeting here in future. Try it if you've not been
Lovely staff. Lovely food. Lovely values. Been 4 times and Its now my go to quick bite at lunchtime
So this establishment is I think managed by people whom have been disadvantaged by their society and their environment. I think that's fair to say. So I was out doing some (amazing) photography work early morning as the weather in glasgow scotland was what's known as taps aff weather (basically it's when you walk about with your polo shirt off). I found this place quite easily I must say and had a read at their menu which sounded better than what was actually put down to me. I ordered a Scottish breakfast. The square sausage tasted off. The potato scone was solid and black and the bacon looked as if it had been cooked 50 times. This review is my own and this is what happened this is what I got served.
The environment was beautiful and had good access for wheel chair users. The coffee was great. Sorry for the 1 star folks but I would not be going back here unless the food that was being served improves vastly. Please note this was only one aspect of whats on the extensive menu I tried.
Perfect places to have lunch for not too expensive. Solidary restaurant that hires people with disabilities for integrated into the world of work.
Liked the fact we added money on to our bill to pay for a couple of meals
Good range of sandwiches and a not too expensive price.
Great food, great prices, great service! I really enjoyed this cafe!
Overpriced, I realise it's a charity but price was more than Costa and Nero. Considering the size of coffee cups and scone then I'm sorry but I don't agree.
Good lunch menu. Reasonable price and all for a good cause.
Had a wee spot of lunch in here today, good sandwiches and soup. Very fairly priced, and the service was great, they also went out of their way to ensure there were no issues with our specific dietary requirements.
Great ethos with respect to social enterprise and paying it forward.
Never been in there - yet! It looks a good cosy cafe - menu looks good, open at 8: 00 am - next time I've early Biz in Merchant City I'm going in and try it ! Five stars for opening early!
A beautiful little cafe with friendly staff and a warm atmosphere.
Staff were busy but friendly. Food was good. There is a pay forward scheme to allow you to leave cash so the homeless can get a meal/hot drink paid for from the kitty. I loved it and will be back. Wheelchair accessible.
Good coffee and good Scottish breakfast, the service was great and the food came out fast. This place makes for a quick and easy bite to eat.
Very good food, friendly staff. Good for the community too
Very poor "Scottish breakfast" for a bit expensive price.
Nice little place, good location and a social venture as well. They make a good cup of tea!
Tasty food and drinks, low prices, helpful and pleasant staff. Veggie menu. WIFI. quiet
Would recommend but the baked potato I ordered wasn't warm and the cheese wasn't melted still support the idea of a community cafe that's pays a proper wage to staff
Support this wonderful enterprise. Lovely food served with a smile and a social conscience
Love a roll and sausage from here on my way into work in the morning. Good food, good prices and friendly staff.
Got my order wrong. They changed it no problem and brought the correct order however the jacket potato was overcooked and I ended up not eating it anyway. Such a shame as the place was clean and lovely.
This is a great place and well worth a visit if you're in the Merchant city area. The food is great and good value for money. The staff are very friendly and attentive. It's a fair trade and community run cafe with a real ethical stance. 5 out of 5- I'd give it 6 if I could
Lovely cafe with a good cause behind it. Pleased to are it was so busy.
Very nice clean and tidy with great food, all in all a very calm and relaxing place to have breakfast .
Could do with more staff at lunch time but friendly clean and food lovely
One of the few budget cafes in the city centre, providing traditional, healthy food and cakes as well as usual teas and coffees. Downstairs toilets bit of a trek.
Excellent. Great staff. Very friendly. Superb breakfast and lunch menu. Great coffee. A comfortable place with a good spirit.
Me and friend ordered a cappuccino and hot chocolate and the preparation was perfect
Coffee excellent as was service , good place to go to take break
great little cafe in Glasgow, with range of food and drinks, staff very friendly and good ambience
Brilliant service very friendly place to have a coffee and a breakfast
Nice cafe staff very friendly had the tuna crunch it was lovely prices very cheap
Really nice wee place. Can substitute gluten free bread for toasties and sandwiches. You can also pay it forward and leave some money which goes towards hot drinks and meals for those who need it
Friendly community focused cafe. Unpretentious. Not a huge menu but good value for money.
Upon arriving after an overnight coach trip I was greeted with a very warm welcome. The chap serving me was an excellent host and the food and coffee were delicious. Upon leaving we spoke about myself and my travels as the chap seemed very interested. Couldn't of asked for a better experience just after arriving in glasgow for the very first time. 5* will definitely revisit if I'm ever in the area again. Thank you again gentleman, I'm terribly sorry I do not remember your name.
Nice place to go for a coffee and the New York sandwich was great. You don't feel rushed which is a good thing. Only bad point was the lentil soup which seemed watered down. There was a large group of us so we think they may have not have had enough soup and added water to make it spread but in doing so ruined the taste. Better just to say you have no lentil soup and offer an alternative.
Amazing place to go and have food there and also the staff were very friendy and food was cheap to, deff come back here when we come on hoilday
Lovely place, but I ordered new York deli ciabatta and couldn't eat it. It was smothered with mustard. They had used it as if it was mayonnaise. My head was burning with the sensation. This has put me off going again.
This place has a great concept with their pay it forward approach. Your donations/gratuities go towards customers who are less able to pay for their own meals. The food is very cheap, tastes good, but is very "no frills" - no fluff, no big sides, just small portions of whatever you order.
Great community cafe. Super friendly service, spotlessly clean & great value. Plus it supports local charity. What's not to like
Lovely cafe with yummy food, a bright space and a team with an important mission to help people in need, with learning disabilities or suffering from social isolation.
A fantastic not for profit community enterprise and cosy but classy cafe. Food was was of a high standard and all home cooked. I would have paid much more than was charged for the quality of the food. There is an option to pay in front which means you can leave a donation to pay for someone else to eat.
Excellent cafe near the heart of Glasgow - recommended for their friendliness and warm welcome. Great coffee and a great atmosphere.
Sandwich and coffee delicious. Lovely warm friendly staff.
Had a proper Scottish breakfast for the first time and was very impressed. For how much it cost versus the portion, it is a great value. I didn't feel hungry until 4pm after I had the breakfast at 8am so the portion is really large. The black pudding looked rather strange but it actually tasted good. Friendly staff.
A great cafe with a good range of food available. Very reasonable prices. I love the option of a half sandwich with a bowl of soup for lunch. Thoroughly recommended.
Very good night comedy excellent
Thank you very much
Great Breakfast for so little money , 12npounds for 2 people to eat a full Scottish includes coffee
A lovely cafe but the manager was just rude. They forgot my breakfast and after nearly an hour when I asked she looked at me , shook her head and just said naw , you still want one don t be so rude to people . I would have waited for it because I was chatting away to the man who took my order , he was super friendly. Take a leaf out of his book
Lovely place clean and great food and staff are very helpful highly recommend it for a relaxing tea and lunch
Fantastic cafe. Awesome coffee, superb cakes, friendly staff. What's not to like?
We had a bacon roll and fruit scone. The scone was fine but not great. The bacon roll was very tasty, the roll fresh and light the bacon also very good. Two coffees were very nice.
Nice venue, but the full Scottish breakfast was quite a let down. Scrambled eggs wasn't great and the Sausages were a little under cooked.
Love Spoon for a quick lunch in a friendly atmosphere. Veggy and now vegan friendly, too!
THought would give the place a try on travels. Think its third sector type cafe creating jobs and training. The staff friendy good service and place was clean and tidy. Roll sausage and coffee ordered was fine. Its cheap place for food and drinks nice little cafe give it try.
