I was visiting an antique shop nearby when I walked passed this one, Macks Diner is a sort of…read moreroadside cafe aiming at office workers nearby, taxi drivers and just passing trade. Here you can grab a bacon / sausage roll with a coffee for next to nothing, there are only a few seats so maybe best to buy, grab & go, definitely one to add to your list of unusual places to eat.

Great wee cafe Great cheap prices and nice staff…read more Try it and you will be happy beats the other food places in the area. Love this wee cafe and will be using this place anytime I'm in the area. I recommend this place to all that are working in the area its honestly a no brainer

I absolutely hate going for lunch here…read more There's nothing wrong with the food. Everyone who works there is really cheerful and nice. Prices are fairly cheap. But it's so slow. A few times now I have made the mistake of going here when I only have an hour for lunch, and I'm only getting served after half an hour. Then it takes a while for the food to be brought to your table, so you have to gulp it down in 5 minutes or you'll be late for your organic chemistry lecture or whatever it msy be. If you come here outwith peak lunchtime hours it's pretty good, but avoid like the plague if you need to be fast.

I totally agree with the last review, it is so so slow, I had been here once for lunch and was…read morereally late back. Its not that the place was outrageously busy, it was normal busy for lunch, so I dont know if they were maybe hand rolling the pasta out in the back there or what but there is no way things should take that long.

To be honest, I've walked passed the alley that has signs on it for Bread + Butter and Chippy Doon…read morethe Lane but have never ventured down in to either. Well, this has all changed. My boyfriend and two of our friends enjoyed a day at a sneaker (yes, it was called a sneaker festival, not a trainer festival) in Finneston when we decided to venture in to the city for some drinks. Well, they drank, I had water, as I'm currently off the booze for health reasons. Anyway, we were looking for anyplace really that had seating and after trying a few of our normal haunts, we decided to check to see if we could get a seat here. Voila! We could! The catch was that the massive table we were able to score had to be back in a few hours time, which was fine by us. What an interesting concept this place. It's part cafeteria, part bar, part sports pub, part party hall. It really is a massive place with not a single style to call it's own, rather a few mixed in. Loads of family sized wooden tables and benches to sit at, as well as cozy chairs, stool and mini tables. A mixed crowd of kids (yes, kids), families, groups of women and men, and of course us. Three dudes and me. Ha! The lot of us really don't understand why pubs/bars are starting to cater to having kids in among all the drinking and the booze but I digress... The guys decided they were going to partake in the cocktails they had on their list. Mai-thai, and a DeNiro. The Mai-thai, they said was pretty boozy but good and the DeNiro was really sweet. The DeNiro was Jack Daniels, vanilla essence, coke and a piece of orange. They all agreed, instead of an orange, it would have been better with a cherry. I enjoyed my water just fine (boo!!)- but the waiter didn't seemed pleased about serving it. He basically threw it on the table, not even asking who may have ordered it. On top of that, even though I asked for a lemon, it came barely with any ice and no lemon. Oh well. Anyway, I think this could be a place to bring the girls back for a night out. The guys I was with weren't too keen on the music being like in a club and it just wasn't their style. The drinks are a bit pricey, but for one or two, it's ok.

Great for 2-4-1 pizza and £8.50 bottles of house wine during the week. Weekends also offer a…read morepizza+pitcher/bottle deal for £12. The pizzas are a bit cheese heavy, (and that's coming from a cheese lover) and topping light, but for a tenner for 2 I won't complain. The base is thin and crispy, and always perfectly cooked. Service was fairly quick, and there's plenty of space and seating. I wouldn't choose it for a meal or evening out, but for an after work drink and munch it does the job.

Second and last ever visit, had to wait 30 minutes to be seated and another 30 to be served - service is terrible - this time I had the Blueberry Pancake Breakfast - this order was put through incorrectly and for some reason served on two plates, though there was more than enough space on one - The hash browns were raw and the rest of the food looked unappetizing and cold. I have uploaded a picture, I had already started on the pancakes as I was very hungry after having waited so long for the food

Meh. That's basically how I would sum this place up. I've…read morebeen here twice, both times to the Bar part and each time I've just been left feeling disappointed. The first time I had a burger and honestly it was like something you could get out of a burger van! £11 for a bacon cheeseburger definitely isn't worth it, especially when you can quite easily walk up to McDonald's and get something better in my opinion! I came back here only because we wanted to grab something small and quick before a gig at the Hydro and we couldn't be bothered going elsewhere. The bf ordered soup and I got chips cause I wasn't very hungry. It would be pretty difficult to mess this up, right? Wrong. The food came really quickly, almost as soon as my bf had come back from ordering it, which was pretty worrying to begin with. The chips were obviously just frozen ones which had been deep-fried and they were ok, but just ok. The soup wasn't that hot, the mug it was in was barely warm at all and according to the bf, it really wasn't very good - he hardly ate any of it! The place itself is ok, I see what they're trying to do with the whole industrial look but there just isn't really any atmosphere. 2 stars only because the staff were really friendly and nice!! Won't be back here if I can help it. Might try the Kitchen part, but probably only if I didn't really have any other options.

My friend won a Facebook competition and received a voucher for 2 pizzas and a bottle of wine, so…read morealong we popped to try out Clydebuilt. I'm not a great fan of the layout; parts of it could have been more sheltered since I felt like I was sitting right in the middle of the SECC concourse, on busy concert nights I can imagine you would feel very hemmed in. My other gripe is that Clydebuilt doesn't have its own toilets; you have to use the main SECC ones. If you felt the call of nature whilst eating, I imagine your food would probably be cold by the time you went to the loo on a busy concert night. The food itself is really tasty however, my friend and I shared some coca cola ribs to start (we were getting the rest of the meal free so figured we should at least buy something!); these were juicy and smokey and the meal literally fell of the bone. Yum! Next, we both opted to try the Strathdon pizza (Aberdeenshire blue cheese, mozzarella and pancetta). I love blue cheese on a pizza, so rich and adds a little extra something to a pizza I feel. We both found these to be lovely, well-made and not skimpy with toppings. The service was a little so-so. As I mentioned, we both ordered pizzas so we thought we would get some proper knives/cutters to attack these with. How wrong we were, we had to struggle through with just normal butter knives. Messy! They also tried to charge us for the full meal, even though Vicky had clearly stated at the time of booking that she was a competition winner. On the other hand, our server (I can't remember his name), was very attentive and coped well with a busy night and was very helpful in offering tips and advice on what to try. Overall, a bit meh. Good food but the service and the layout isn't great sadly.
