Ecco 808 il Cafe has been around for just under a decade now and it's not hard to see why. The little family run, Italian bistro / cafe sits right at the edge of Great Western Road, near Jordanhill.
There's friendly banter, humble surroundings and, most importantly, truly magnificent grub. Examples of Ecco's gorgeous, hearty and utterly tasty cuisine comes in the shape of various Frittata's, Lasagne's, Tuna Fagioli and even the humble baked potatoe! If you're after a light bite or snack, however, you can also find a range of sandwiches made with Italian bread - utterly divine, and what better way to feed the hunger hole!
For those passing by, out with a friend or those just wanting a wee coffee break, you can grab a Dime Bar cake or even a tirimasu to go with that much needed caffeine hit. Expect to sip away to an eclectic mix of music from The Velvet Underground to The Goodfellas soundtrack.
Ecco 808 il Cafe is definitely worth a visit, not just for locals but those looking for a cosy little nook on the edge of Glasgow's west end. You should definitely try out this humble little slice of Italy in the city. read more
