I remember the old Coia's Cafe many moons ago (well, only about 4 or 5 years ago now) and myself and the boy would frequent this greasyspoon-esque cafe almost on a regular basis for a panini, chips and milkshake. It reminded me of the University Cafe on Byres Road which I also used to frequent on a regular basis years ago; no added fanciness or pretension, a dash of surly waitress and a pinch of chippy grease to soothe the (hungover) soul. Well Coia's Cafe, my how you've grown! Upon 1st entering Coia's quite soon after it reopening I must admit I got sad and longed for the school-style tables and greasy misspelled menus but mostly for the mucho cheapness of the old Coia's. Oof. Then upon visiting Coia's again after this 1st time I grew to love Coia's for what it is now - a great Italian cafe/restaurant. I must admit I do still find the prices a tad steep for myself but having said that you do certainly get what you pay for and wow! Hello big portions! Woof-a-doodle-doo. I'm quite a big eater and I like a healthy (as in unhealthy) sized portion of foodage when I'm dining and Coia's certainly does not disappoint! Stuffed City. Whether it be a lazy weekend brunch/lunch or an evening meal Coia's caters for all. They still have their greasyspoon throwback - the chippy menu alongside quality Italian dishes, such as pizzas and pastas and gorgeous fresh fish of day (I had the sea bass once and it was beautiful) plus lighter bites such as omelette's (which are lovely), baked potatoes (again tasty), toasties and paninis/rolls/baguettes. The desserts are great too. Their own ice-cream (in many flavours) is lush, especially with some of that blood, I mean raspberry sauce on top. Yum. Coia's Cafe also do one of my favourite coffees ever: The Caffe Royale. This is their gorgeous coffee with whipped cream on top. It is better than I just made it sound, honest guv. They also have a tasty wine list and they serve draft Birra Moretti which is equally lovely. If you've never ventured into the dark and mysterious East End/Duke Street then please do not let this put you off coming here to try out one of Glasgow's finest Italian cafe/restaurants, you're missing out if you don't. Only minus point I have is getting a table on a weekend is sometimes a bugger but you're more than welcome to book a table so don't let this put you off as we all know that the best things come to those that wait (hopefully not for too long though...). read more

I think I'd lived in the east end for roughly 10 years before ever eating out in the area, I'd moved here as a student so all I knew was city centre and city centre was great! Then one day we were passing and starving so decided to give Coia's a whirl. Coia's is traditional Italian, it has an air of authenticity, like a proper family run Italian should. Don't expect modern, fancy schmancy decor, that isn't what they're about, expect to be greeted by 3rd/maybe even 4th generation family members who want to serve you the food they grew up with. Open from breakfast through lunch and dinner the menu has something for everyone. I, a creature of habit, opt for the calzone on every occasion (each time stating I will have something different but never do!) and once you try it you'll understand why! It must be at least 12" in diameter, has the best dough and can be filled with your choice of up to 3 fillings (meatballs, spicy chicken and mozzarella are my fav's). It's amazing and at £10.25 is a fraction of what Papa Johns or Dominos will sting you! Freshly grated Parmesan is always offered for anyone having pasta, rightly so. They also stock my favourite lemon San pellegrino soft drink, this makes me uber happy. Should you have space for pudding there's always a great selection to choose from but I would instead recommend checking out the revolving ice cream wheel...oh my is it awesome! It's part of the deli where you can buy produce to takeaway, always worth a browse. A word of warning though, you can very rarely just turn up and get seated straight away, they are constantly mobbed! Expect to wait a few minutes for a table; as the saying goes though "good things come to those who wait". read more

Breakfast at Coia's is normally a hungover affair with me opting for a full cooked breakfast. This mornings visit however is a celebration of finally having money after an entire summer without. When you're not opting for the greasiest, mountainous plateful of hangover cure there's some great brunch choices on the menu, so much so I wasn't ready to order when first asked! I eventually opted for an Arnold Bennett omelette which promised me smoked haddock & Parmesan, not the kind of thing I'd usually order but it just sounded so good. It didn't disappoint either. The smoked haddock was plentiful, large chunks of fish throughout which flaked beautifully under my fork. Generous slices of Parmesan adorned the top of the light & fluffy omelette. Served with a large side salad which had a good mix of leaves and a tasty dressing. The cucumber slices were a little on the chunky side for my liking but this would be my only minor negative. I sometimes think price-wise Coia's think they're more west end than east end but this was delicious, fresh and served quickly so I'll forgive them their prices. Apparently not just good for hangover cures. Who knew?! read more

I have been meaning to go into Coia's for months, but the long lines always turned me away. Finally, I went, and my expectations were completely wrong. The lines to get a table go quite quickly. I did not love how crowded it is, it can feel like a can of sardines if you are not seated at a booth. I have sat at a table in the middle of the floor for brunch once, and at a booth for dinner once. I enjoyed both experiences, but was with someone who is not keen on many people in tight spaces and if you are one of those types - definitely be aware that this can be like that. Even on a Monday night, it is booked up with reservations - which should tell you something. The prices are quite average or even quite decent, which also took me by surprise. For vegetarian meals, they have a selection but of course with Italian, you may be missing out on the great stuff (like me). I can definitely see why Coia's is so busy and why it's considered such an institution. Definitely worth the visit and is a great choice for couples, families, friends, etc. read more

We booked in here for a Saturday afternoon lunch after hearing it gets quite busy. Just as well we did, as it was indeed thoroughly busy. Always a good sign though. Our party was 6-strong and we all ordered something different with empty plates all round. The portions were good and the service was exemplary. A lovely, lovely place. My fish and chips was amazing and there were no complaints from my friends. The steak pie looked pretty spectacular to be honest and the pizzas did not last very long. We had to indulge in some dessert which was, as expected, brilliant. The ice cream was reasonably priced to be fair, and well presented. The chocolate cake was also immense. The bill came to around £80 between 6 which was good for what we had, and the overall dining experience. I would recommend this place if you are over this way, but would also suggest booking ahead if it's peak time as it can get pretty busy. read more

I was pleasantly surprised with Coia's Cafe. I have recently moved to the East End and had heard mixed reviews though wanted to try it for myself. We had booked a table for 7pm and upon arrival there was a little confusion. We gave our name to one waiter who went to set up our table only for him to be reprimanded by another waiter who informed him our table was booked. However we got our table, a little booth beside the kitchen which was cosy but a little busy with waiters going to and fro and service bells etc. We ordered the house white which was lovely and then scanned our menus. A waiter checked in twice before we made our decisions. I had mozarella sticks which were delicious and my companion had deep fried mushrooms which he enjoyed too. The mozarella sticks are really good, melt-in-the mouth, and I do recommend them. They come served with a side salad and dressing also. Our mains arrived literally minutes after our starters were taken away, which was a little too quick and made us feel a little rushed. I had the Tagliatelle New York and my companion had a spaghetti dish with mussels. Both dishes were absolutely delicious. The portions were generous and we were absolutely stuffed. We enquires as to the homemade ice cream after our mains as I have an egg allergy. One waiter assured us that it was egg free but sensing our hesitance went to check and it actually wasn't. An honest mistake but a pretty close call! We then finished our wine and paid up. The staff were warm and friendly though I think a little overstretched, it was pretty busy for a Thursday night. All in all a good experience and I would definitely go again. read more

Coia's Cafe - So so sooo good. - Cafes Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

This, of course, is the same Coia's Cafe as in the restaurant, but this is their deli, next door, but with a separate entrance. I can't believe I've only just been in here for the first time because it is a food wonderland! Cake is sold by the slice at the door, including tiramisu, banoffee pie, cheesecakes andapple pie. On the right is an ice cream stang with a giant circular rotating freezer containing about 20 flavours. Lining the sheves are speciality chocolates, jelly sweets and italian treats like biscotti. Hanging from the ceiling are giant chocolate santas, bags of iced ginger and candy canes. There is a deli counter selling meats and sandwich fillings, next to a takeaway food counter with hot drinks, sandwiches and snacks like cheeseburgers. I got a slice of choc chip cheesecake and Stu got a strawberry ice cream cone. The flavour of the ice cream was gorgeous and intensely strawberry-y. I loved the cheesecake, but Stu disliked it to the point that he wouldn't eat any! It was a traditional cheesecake, having the kind of bitter taste it should, in my opinion. it's a bit expensive, but great for a treat or ten! Go and check it out now! read more

Coia's Cafe - Taken by Liz - Cafes Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

I miss the days when Coia's used be a modest little chippy and cafe, with cosy little seats where you could get settled with a ice cream soda or a coffee and a big plate of chips. There would be the echoes of Glasgow banter and the same old faces piling in to grab a bite to eat and natter with the friendly staff. Gradually Coia's has transformed from cosy cafe into a rather large Italian restaurant. These days it is a big and busy place to go for breakfast, lunch, dinner or drinks, attracting the office types, canoodling couples and lunching ladies. The menus tell the story of how Coia's became what is today, giving a nod to days gone by and informing visitors of the place's heritage. The menu is full of traditional Italian fare as well as great British classics, offering something for everyone. My only criticism would be the big bright and airy nature of the place, drastically different from the cosy Coia's I used to know and love, however the food is good and the portions are plentiful. read more

Coia's Cafe has been in its spot in Duke Street since 1928. It is a Glasgow institution, an authentic Italian mish mash of restaurant, delicatessen, ice cream parlour and chippie. I popped in the other day and picked a home made vanilla ice cream cone with chocolate sprinkles from the tons of available flavours. The adjoining restaurant was heaving with Sunday lunchtime diners. Coia's Cafe is the kind of place you wish was in your neighbourhood. Sadly it is nowhere near mine but I will definitely be going back if I happen to be in the Dennistoun area. read more

Having never been to Coia's before, I was excited to try out this venue for myself. Meeting some good friends on a Saturday morning for a brunch seemed like the perfect excuse for a trial! And I certainly wasn't disappointed. Sitting in a lovely spacious window booth we were served promptly and didn't have too long to wait for our food to arrive. Being able to 'customise' your own breakfast was fab, meaning we could each choose items we wanted on our plate without causing too much hassle to the waiters, or having to plate dodge any unwanted customers (I'm looking to you Mr. Fried Mushroom). The portions were more than hearty (especially the scrambled eggs!!) and definitely set us up for a busy morning of shopping afterwards. After this lovely brunch I'll definitely be back to Coia's sometime soon. I'm also eager to try out their evening menu as I hear the pasta dishes are great! read more

When my boyfriend and I first moved to Dennistoun a couple of months ago Coia's was one of the places our neighbours recommended. A few weeks ago my boyfriend and I were left in a food coma after going for breakfast - their vegetarian breakfast is outstanding! And now I'm sitting with a serious pizza baby. Their dinner menu is great, so many options so definitely something for everyone. We had mozzarella sticks to start with were nice enough but the pizza definitely stole the show. The Four Cheese Pizza was delicious and my boyfriend went for the "build your own option" (perfect for mr fussy!). Portion sizes were very generous but service was slightly on the slow size (although to be fair it was pretty busy). Definitely recommend booking. read more

Although folks are saying that this place has dropped in their eyes from the old days, I have to admit to loving this place. The food is very good, the waiters can be gruff, and it is obvious that this Duke Street institution is very much a part of Dennistoun. Prices are not in the local cafe range but in terms of the quality of the food, they beat out the other Italianesque franchise places. At least you know the pictures on the wall are of people the owners know and not "Italian Man with Pasta #A312". read more

Coia's is a great wee place situated in the east end on duke street and has been there forever! It's slightly more expensive considering it's not in the city centre but I love it for a wee treat. I'm happy that they offer gluten free pasta so I can enjoy my carbonara ... and omg this carbonara is amazing! For the chip shop lover all things chippy is catered for and they have a deli next door that offers takeaway. Parking is available on street outside just check meters during the day. read more

Overrated. I found the food very bland. How do you make Italian food bland? Nope! read more

Good Food in a vibrant atmosphere, if you like italian food, you'll like this. The scallops and king prawn in tomato & chilli linguini is fabulous. Downside: the service is a wee bit hit and miss, you can be left a long time without a drink or your plates cleared when its busy, and at £16.00 for the said pasta, you're getting cafe service at restaurant prices. read more

Bustling café this. We walked in at about 1pm on a Sunday not expecting to have to queue, but queue we did. Luckily the people in the queue ahead of us were busy gabbing to another couple sat near the door, neither the staff nor us realised they were actually wanting a table so we got sat down first. Haha losers! The staff are mainly Scottish-Italian and have a friendly cheekiness with it, like when I pulled my almost empty pint glass away from the waiter to sink the dregs, and later when I'd finished my food he made sure he asked twice with a smirk before taking my comprehensively cleared plate away. My Cappessante Stornaway starter, ie. scallops with Stornaway black pudding and pancetta was huge. Even I struggled a bit to get it down, it's certainly wasn't cheap but it was pretty good value, with four large king scallops, each with a bigger disk of black pudding and a large amount of pancetta spread around the plate. I wouldn't say they were the best I've had, but all the components worked together nicely. My Pizza Inferno main was mahoosive too. You get a lot of food here! The bread was slightly dry and over-floured for me, but it was thin crust as I like and there was plenty of tomatoey topping with small Italian sausage and pepperoni slices. My criticism would be that "inferno" implies a hot pizza and this was fairly gentle. All the proper heat was from unevenly spaced small slices of a hot chilli so most of the pizza had almost no kick at all, a bit of chilli oil put on in the kitchen would have made it dazzle. To be fair though there was chilli oil in amongst the condiments, but still a four. read more

Unpretentious, friendly, lively and speedy service with fantastic food. Visited on a Saturday early evening and it was buzzing with all walks of life from people on their own enjoying their weekend treat to couples and families. I was in a table of 10 and the service was excellent. The waiters and kitchen staff are total pros. The menu is full of choice including 'chip shop specials' like ashet steak pie, big burgers and jimmy ginormous pizzas. There's italian classics and I jumped at the chance to order puttanesca- it's so hard to find this on a menu. Hallelujah! It was delicious and there was plenty of it. I also had a special for a starter - lambs liver with salad, apple and chutney. It was the best liver I've ever had and the portion was extremely generous. The prices range from value to high but there's plenty of choice to decide what you want to spend. I would happily spend an extra couple of quid to sit in this atmosphere and get the service and quality of food they serve. read more

I have visited coias a few times and have never been disappointed. It has a very warm and lively atmosphere which is great for family dinners or special occasions. It is always busy at the weekends so would recommend booking. It is a family run place and you can tell the staff have the place in their hearts. I love the seafood salad which is packed with seafood and is under £8! The pasta and pizza dishes are good and you can get a `jimmy` style dish which is half pizza half pasta..just in case you can't decide. Other dishes such as steak and fish dishes are expensive and I have never seen anyone get any of these! There is a good breakfast choice and a sit in or takeaway chippy menu. The takeaway pizzas are awesome..think crispy dough. Authentic italian! read more

It seems ironic that going arm in arm with Tibo in leading the slow gentrification of the east end is one of Dennistoun's longest running establishments. But then again, Coia's has come a long way since its modest beginnings in 1928. No longer simply an Italian-Scots greasy spoon cafe and chippy, the institution now boasts a swish Italian deli, a reasonably-expensive restaurant and a spinning ice-cream parlor which looks like it should be distributing 99s in space. While I can empathise with the melancholy regulars of the more understated Coia's feel when they visit its current swanky incarnation, the establishment continues to offer nostalgic nods to its beginnings and maintains its local feel throughout. Most importantly, the food remains excellent, particularly the ice cream, and while it may be gentrifying, let's just be pleased that Dennistoun is progressing with Coia's firmly by its side. read more

I remember going to Coia's years ago with my gran...back when it was the old Coia's and my feet didn't touch the floor when I sat on the chair. Ah,good memories. So I'm chuffed that this cafe has expanded and continued to grow over the years because it does hold a special place in my heart. On a recent visit with my friend, I was pretty disappointed with my meal. I chose to order the burger and chips which weren't anything special. The burger was okay but it's just not memorable for any good reason. It seemed to lack flavour and after one bite, I could hear my boyfriend saying 'You should have gone for Dennistoun Bar B Que if you wanted a burger silly!' The chips were chippy style which again were okay, but I've had better. My cappuccino was nice and served with a small piece of biscotti which I enjoyed. There was nothing wrong with the service at all but it's just nothing to write home about and I expected more from my meal. For now, I'm just going to stick with the happy memories I have! read more

Coia's is a fantastic wee cafe serving delicious rustic home cooked food. The pasta dishes are amazing! However, the prices are a bit steep for my liking and although they provide a huge menu offering traditional british dishes and a chip shop menu, I feel it would be better if they stuck to providing healthy tasty pasta dishes. I personally have never ordered anything from the british menu but I know people who have and the dishes appear to be a bit dry and not finished off to such a high standard as the pasta dishes. Stick with the pasta and Italian dishes and you can't go wrong! Definitely somewhere I would go back to! read more

I went here with my mom when we were visiting from the states. Let me tell you we left the cafe stumbling as if we had too much to drink because we were laughing so hard. We had two different waiter's that were competing to get our orders. Their dynamic was hilarious to watch. Then a guy, who I'm assuming was someone in charge, came over and was (in a comedic way please don't fire him) flipping us crap. He made a joke about having to go in a dark room for therapy because of people like my mom who don't have celiac's but still eat gluten free. It was by far the best way to kick off our first night in Scotland and get a taste of Scottish humor, you won't find any waiter or waitress in the states making fun of your diet choices. The food was also amazing, I can't remember what we had, probably pasta. The dessert was also good, we had the fun colored poofy things that kind of look like breast implants. I'm sorry I have no idea what they're called. Highly recommend. I'm not sure if the entire staff are like the people we had, but you could take a chance and hope you get the same guys! read more

The pizzas are amazing and you have to try the Irn-Bru Sorbet! We used to live right around the corner and popped in all the time. They refurbished a few years ago and it is a great place for a family mea read more

A real local institution, with a warm welcome awaiting you on every visit. And if you're lucky, it'll be in Glaswegian-Italian ;) Whether you're in for a full meal or just a takeaway coffee, I've always found the service quick, efficient and friendly enough. The place has been beautifully renovated, and the seats/booths are comfortable. The range of services is quite impressive too: takeaway sandwiches, hot and cold drinks, breakfast/brunch dishes, a delicatessen counter, a chip shop and takeaway pizza menu, outside catering, great desserts (including a really fun big ice cream freezer with all the flavours set out as you enter from the takeaway area). It's all here, and everything I've tried has been worth the money. It's more expensive than elsewhere in Dennistoun, but it has the feel of a well-run family restaurant, and the prices are well in line with, or less than, any similar establishments elsewhere in the city (e.g. Bella Napoli, Bella Italia). read more

Coias is the perfect venue for pick me up food, fry up, milkshakes, chips, pasta, etc. Good atmosphere, good service at a very reasonable price!! read more

Best ice cream in east end not too far from city centre. They have few varieties but all if them tasty and worth the price. Just pop in at any last afternoon and simply enjoy chocolate, strawberry and few more flavours. read more

LOVE Coia's. Been for breakfast, lunch and dinner over the years and just love it. Their antipasti starter is plenty for 2 to share and their pizzas and pasta dishes outstanding. Nearly always my 1st choice for a local dinner but sometimes so busy that we can't get a seat! Never been disappointed with my choice of food or drink at Coia's. read more

The first thing i noticed in Coia's was that they had spelled macchiato wrongly on the menu.A small detail but it shouldn't happen in an Italian place.I was meeting a friend who was late, so i ordered a drink but after about ten minutes the waiter started hassling me about when i was going to order food and looking at his watch.I felt quite annoyed about this as the place was half empty. I had a veggie burger which was not great.Very bland burger and limp salad with very little dressing available.I also had a cherry ice cream which was also pretty tasteless.Admittedly i had just come back from Italy and had been eating fantastic ice cream every day.This wasn't in the same league. Coia's may have expanded recently to reflect the gentrification of Dennistoun and maybe on another day i would have had a better experience but I just seemed like a run-of the-mill Scots-Italian place to me. read more

The place is good. They refurbished last year and now it is better presented although the booths feel like more squeezed for space. Their fish and chips is good, and I would suggest pasta and pizza Jimmy Style read more

I'm a bit obsessed with getting a good strong cup of coffee these days. Most place are a complete let down. Coia's was almost perfect. I haven't bought food from their restaurant or indulged a bit in their nice little delicatessen but it's lovely just to sit in here for some tea and relaxation on your day off. It seems like a good place for familys to come. When i visited I saw a good number of tables made up with mums, dads and their 2.4 children. The breakfasts smell amazing. Mmm. read more

Lovely cafe - recently renovated. Delicious flavours of ice cream (black cherry Mmmm!!) Also they do great italian pizza & pasta as well as scottish dishes. It's a great cafe and take away deli. Always very busy which says a lot for their food. It is a little expensive for a cafe but it worth it. read more

Coia's Cafe was recommended to me as a good place to meet up for some Sunday lunch. The menu is predominately italian but offers traditional fare such as steak pie and fish and chips. It also has a wide array of breakfast items. We had a table booked for 6 people and the restaurant was packed. Everyone in our group ordered 2 courses and everyone ordered something different. Notable mention goes to the lentil soup and my bruschetta. One of the less popular choices was the fishcakes as the fish taste was really overpowering. For my main I chose chicken ceasar salad which had plenty of chicken and sauce. Other popular items were the fish and chippy chips and the steak pie. The low point of the experience was the service, it was packed and there was a constant que of people at the door waiting for a seat. This business meant that staff were more rushed, our waiter sounded quite angry and ignored members of the group when they were asking for more drinks. Also when the mains arrived my main never came and we had to ask a staff member to retrieve it from the food pass where it had been sitting for 10 minutes. Other than this it is a pleasant place to eat with a good choice of food and looks like it be great for a morning fry up. read more

...not quite there for ever - coia's used to be much further east along duke street - where they started out as traditional italian cafe - with the ubiquitous gelati from this well known family - now its difficult to get a seat in the new one !! read more

I love Coia's! It's been there for ever! I don't stay in Dennistoun anymore but still go there on occasions (when in need of comfort food!) Has chaged a fair bit since the old days too. Not so much a cafe as a bistro now with a fabulous, varied menu. They've still kept the old favourites though. Their steak pie is the best I've tasted! read more

Coia's is a great italian cafe in Dennistoun. It's very quick during lunchtime during the weekend and (who I assume is) the manager is always dotting around and making sure that everyone gets seated promptly. There's a large range of food to choose from and it's a great place to visit for some hangover food. They also have a wee deli bit next door that has a really amazing range of products including lots of Lindt stuff. They also sell a variety of ice creams that I have yet to try (too cold whenever I've been) but will be sure to soon. read more

Booked Coias for our team lunch as it's not too far and the best Italian in the east end. Have been here lots of times and have never been disappointed although on this occasion the pasta was dry and bland. We all had starters which got scoffed and the others mains looked great and they said it was delicious. I ordered the oven fromagge pasta which turned up burnt at the ends that couldn't be eaten and was very dry with not much flavor. I have had mac & cheese a few times before which was creamy, lots of cheesy gooeyness and flavorsome so I am not sure if is changed or they have two different macaroni cheese dishes. We all got deserts too and everything is good, I love the sorbets. They also forgot to give us out fries and don't know of we got charged for them because it was a work paid lunch so no one thought to check lol. We all left full but it has put me off slightly. I would still recommend to friends. read more

Was done up not that long ago and what a difference. Has a massive and varied choice of dishes on the menu from fish and chips to eggs benedicte to pizza to knickerbocker glory. Can be very busy at weekends and tables are a bit squashed together so beware if you have a buggy. Thought it was very reasonably priced and we were all happy with what we ordered. read more

I've been a Coias regular my whole life. Recently I had a meal in Coias, and was not impressed. The dish I wanted to order (seafood linguine) was £15.75, which is a disgrace for an eatery in Dennistoun. I pay £12 for the same dish in a very good Italian in Princess Square! Instead I opted for a Steak Pie, which Coias is renowned for. Back before the Cafe was converted into a restaurant, this dish would have set me back around £5, it is now £9.95. And it was better back in the cafe days. My meat was extremely tough and I asked for some more gravy to moisten it (and I wasn't given enough gravy anyway). I mentioned to the owner when he cleared our plates that the meat was tough and he didn't even acknowledge me. When I asked for the bill, I was shocked to discover that they had charged me an extra £1 for the gravy!!! Shocking customer service. Coias have lost some valued customers. They've gone too upmarket now. The menu is extremely overpriced, prices you would expect to pay in the city centre or west end. Next time i'm in Dennistoun i'll be visiting Albertos cafe instead!!! read more
