    This place has EXCELLENT coffee. I popped in about 20 minutes before closing and was met by a kind…read morestaff who made me a coffee without hesitation. It was a rainy day: drizzling : that consistency of rain that makes you feel a bit run down. I was met with the most delicious, warming coffee: a very smooth latte, that had such a lovely taste that there was no need for a drop of sugar. They were out of most of their pastries by the time I sat in--due to their popularity, I have no doubt. I chose one of their remaining items: a small cake that had a touch of lemon and a raspberry on top of a creamy frosting. It was delicious--a welcomed treat when I felt in need of a pick me up. I did not have a chance to test their food so am unable to comment. Do note however: This is a VERY small place. Cozy to be sure, but small and by no means for larger groups. It is ideal for the soloist and duos to come in and have a fairly quick coffee, cake, and food (I assume). This is NOT a place to study. There are no comfortable lounge chairs, chairs or tables. The seating is composed of stools that reside at two bars. It's kind of reminding me of Italian style cafes where you drink your espresso at the bar, across from the barista who just served it to you (though in Rome, they don't offer you stools even!). Given the level of their coffee and cake, I'll be back again soon.

    We liked this place the first time that we went twice while we were in town. It's a small place…read morewith some indoor seating and some outside but bar style. There are no bathrooms which is a downfall but it was close enough to our hotel. I got the chorizo bagel both days I went and a latte. They have display cases of baked goods and sandwiches. When I ordered, the toasted it. It was filling and had a spicy kick in it. Very good! The bagel was crispy and good too!

    I have been a fan of WTMS right from the start. A friend/co-worker of old knew these guys & helped…read morethem out on a few occasions too when they were starting up so I knew how lovely the guys behind WTMS were. They even told me the origin behind the name (everyone probably knows it now) & I always loved the funny & cool names they used for all their food things (the Stoofa always makes me smile!). This place would be a solid 5 stars if it wasn't for one thing: their opening hours. I know due to their location it probably doesn't work & I'm sure they have tried opening a bit later and maybe that didn't work BUT they used to be open on a Saturday and this was the one & only time I could really ever make it along for some WTMS tastiness & some rockin' tunes and now they are no longer open on a Saturday :-( My boyfriend & I used to love popping along here after a wee jaunt round the town on a Saturday, but alas no more can we do this...I don't work anywhere near this place either so coming here for lunch is a no-go too. Such a shame. Can't even pop in for a cheeky Oreo Speedwagon (I LOVE this name!!!) on my way home as they shut at 5pm. Dang. I am missing my WTMS bagel-fix. I love their bagels. I used to change it up and I have tried quite a few different foods in here but I just can't stray from the bagels now (sounds like a love song). Tasty tasty goodness. Quality ingredients combined in interesting & delicious ways nuzzled between beautiful bagels. UH. YES. On my last visit (I was lucky to have a day off mid-week & popped in town for some much missed monkey action) I had a delicious coffee with an Operation bagel ~ this is Roast chicken, red onion, leaves, house Caesar dressing, thyme, parmesan, balsamic and lemon juice and it is divine! Another favourite is the Firewalker (Smoked turkey, mature cheddar, sun-dried tomatoes, red onion, chillies and lemon juice) and the Witchfynder (Chorizo, smoked cheese, spring onion and chilli mayo). So damn good. I mentioned above the Oreo Speedwagon (Haha! Love that name too!) & I really find it hard to visit here without having one as I love it. It was one of the first (and only) places at the time to serve a milkshake-like drink with Oreos in it. If you haven't tried one then please do ~ you wont regret its milky, creamy Oreoy (?!) goodness *slurp* The toilet here is something to behold - the walls are completely covered from toes to nose (well, and then some) with rock posters/stickers and it is ace. You can't help but sit there and wonder at them all. I'm sure this is the reason anyone who enters this loo takes *slightly* longer to reappear than normal. At least I hope thats the reason... I love all the wee rooms & nooks & crannies this place has. Comfy sofas, books to read & such a relaxed atmosphere. It made me giggle when I was last in sitting there on this seen-better-days sofa opposite me where 2 suited-up business guys devouring their bagels whilst heavy metal played in the background. It was beautiful sight to behold. I have 3 wishes of WTMS ~ 1) that they reopen on a Saturday or Sunday or C) they open a sister/brother cafe (preferably in the West End) so more folk can experience the monkey loving bagel delightness. PLEASE! Thank you. (Also thank you for the AMAZING Meathammer burgers you provide us with too ~ so flippin' good)

    The Cup & Saucer Vintage Tea Room - HEAVENLY soft, sticky, chewy meringue

    A chilly afternoon in the west end of Glasgow + tea-loving friend+ vintage crave= trip to the cup…read moreand saucer. The interior reminds me of my grandmas living room, and the teacups are pretty much copycats from those I collect at home (when is 22 tea cups ever too much?) Pal and I ordered two teapots: earl grey for me, apple crunch for her. We weren't hungry, but I wish we were cause the meringue and cream with berries sounds deelish!! Loved everything about this place; the welcoming and chatty owner with her retro hairdo, the 1940 s music in the background, the homy cosy feel, the cute china. Perfect for a comforting cuppa on a grey day. Will go back for more!

    What a fantastic find! If you like vintage, you MUST pop in. That said, if you like meringues, you…read moreMUST pop in too!! Decor, music, staff are all on theme, a wonderful mix of vintage pieces, from the china service, 50s rock n roll, and the 70s clock on the mantelpiece, it's a wonderful little treasure trove and many of the items are also available to buy. We had stopped in for a coffee to see what it was like but the lure of the home baking proved too much for us. The scones and cakes look heavenly, but my eyes were drawn to the large, glittery, meringues. Two puffy white clouds arrived, with a generous portion of whipped cream and a drizzle of strawberry sauce. The meringues were perfect! Crunchy and light on the outside and wonderfully sticky and chewy on the inside. Heaven!! My partner made short work of her scone and confirmed it was good with the universal "ok" sign made as she was too busy enjoying eating it to talk! The owner (I'm guessing) was friendly and happy to confirm she baked the meringues herself. It's cheap, cheerful, and well worth dropping in for a visit. The food is good (the menu is simple but that's no bad thing) and homemade, the service quick and friendly, and the vibe of the place is a fun and quirky mix of vintage from previous decades. So glad we dropped in!!

Its done up in very funky colours with comfortable tables, cushion cubes and seats /booths to be had. Their speciality is ice creams and deserts as you might imagine with the name! It is also quite big on the inside, it looks quite small from outside and i was surprised at how open and well done up it was inside. They have quite an extensive range of ice creams, waffles, cakes and sweet treats. I've been a couple of times now and have not been disappointed. Usually i get an ice cream sundae and its either smaller than i would like or just a range of lack lustre ice creams thrown in smothered in sauce. Not this place! First of all don't order two of these to try them out....they are huge! They have many flavours and types such as the caramel banana boat and the knicker-bocker glory. They are, in a word, immense. Tasty quality ice cream and ingredients, they also use fresh fruit in some of their ones as well as waffles, cakes, desserts and protein shakes. Its delicious, terribly fattening and bad for you.....excellent!!! They also havea range of tea, coffee and juices if your not for expanding your waistline on a visit as well. Staff are friendly and welcoming, happy to have a chat and talk about the menu as well. Great wee place!
