I dragged Stu out of his festering pit and we made our way to Grant's the Bakers. I had passed it several times while sprinting for the train and the smell emanating from the bakery almost caused me to forget all about the train and go and live in there. Hot rolls and hot drinks are available to take away at very reasonable prices. At 10.30 on a Sunday, the queue was out the door and spilling untidily onto the street. Builders, locals and hungover tramps waited patiently in front of the cake filled counter and sizzling hotplate of over-processed meats. The smell was fantastic. Thanks to the two wee wummin behind the counter the queue moved quickly. We bought 6 totty scones and hastened home to fry them! They were big, misshapen and had an almost meaty bite to them. This makes them high up there in my Totty Scone Hall of Fame. Yes, I do actually have a Totty Scone Hall of Fame. I am rather a freak, I do fear. Next time I think I'll go for an iced donut.

Newlands Home Bakery make the best bagels in Glasgow. Toasted, they are astoundingly good. They make the mealy pap that you have been buying from the supermarket which taste more like wallpaper paste. And do not get me started on those New York Brand things (that cannot be called bagels). If you want a great bagel - get yourself to Shawlands and buy these bad boys. Toast them up with a little butter. You can thank me later. I will take my payment in sesame bagels.

It quite frankly, shits all over Greggs.

Not only were they able to make a top notch sponge/ jam/ cream cake with a personal touch at short notice, the customer service was top notch as well. During this transaction, I interacted with two staff members independently of the other & I was blown away with how genuine and matter of fact these women are. As a West Ender it is sometimes easy to become jaded to certain businesses on my own doorstep. As such I wish I had an excuse to use this quality bakery more often & I really rate it & value it as part of the local community. It is an undiscovered gem that deserves to be highly rated & more widely known!

As much I am a big fan of cupcakes I would have liked a little choice of something else. It's not too expensive starting from about £1.95 to £2.50 and the cupcakes are real good, is it somewhere you could go regularly? I'm not too sure.

The first one was a gift so I don't know the price the second one was £2.25. Now both tasted awesome. I genuinely could not fault them at all, but I think £2.25 might be a wee bit pricey? Granted it is a super deluxe cup cake but it seems expensive in my opinion. However I am open to be wrong on this front and it is only a small gripe. The part where it loses stars is on the shop itself, I struggle to know how it is going to survive . It felt totally bare to me with hardly anything on the shelves at all. The picture I had in my head of this place was really let down by the reality when I got there. Great cup cakes that you will enjoy, but just not enough happening to rate above a three star score for me.

This bakery is where the workers' come on their day off, picking up Chinese buns and cakes for the whole family. Char Siu bau, cocktail buns, pineapple buns, egg tarts, cakes galore and my personal fav, a £1 spam and egg bun!!! Just pick up a tray and with some tong action collect whatever tickles your fancy. Don't expect palatial surroundings, it's strictly a wipe down tiled affair and the service is... Well let's say it's efficient without a smile. But sit in or take away, it's my fav Chinese bakery in town and by the looks of it being sought out more often by us Gweilos.

It isn't really worth getting a quick snack from here: better to stock up on the speciality bread and some interesting cheese, and make something at home. The cold cuts are appetising, and the inevitable "Scottish Preserves" are spot on: plenty of choice, good quality, fair prices. It doesn't quite come up to the quality of the delicatessens at the top end of the road, but it does have the best bread.

On my visit I didn't know what the shop was called as there was no sign above the door, theirs is a pretty small place where there is a few seats on the shop floor and more seating upstairs. A few items weren't labelled and had to guess what everything was, l bought a latte & a raspberry muffin that ended up being a red currant muffin. There was a few customers that came in to buy the last remaining bread, I did notice that the labels where written in Polish and not English, maybe this was to help the girl at the counter who was learning the language it did cause confusion with the person that was buying the bread as they didn't know what bread it was. I felt here was a language barrier as the server had little English and a customer came in looking to buy two bottles of balsamic dressing, I could see at least 8 bottles on the shelf, she said that they had sold out, l pointed out the mistake. It's an ok place to visit, but more of a take away sort of place than to sit in.

I think this is a much-needed addition to the area as Finnieston is strangely lacking in cafes/coffee shops (aside from The Steamie). I popped in for a super quick visit to get a bite to take away and had to get the churros when I saw them. I just got one and it was excellent - fresh & delicious and a good snack to eat on the move. They had a sign suggesting if you were eating in you should get it with a hot chocolate which I'll definitely be doing next time. Seb & Mili also do loaves of bread, hot meals, pastries, coffee, tea, soup, sandwiches, donuts - they manage to do a lot in the small space and I will definitely be back for a proper sit-in visit very soon.
