Coull's sells more than bread and cakes however. You can buy breakfast rolls, chopped deli meats, juices, tinned produce, and more. The highlight, however, is their homemade potato scones. Everyone I meet, I rave about these soft, doughy beauties. They are so delicious, you don't even need to cook them to enjoy them. They are made fresh in the shop every morning and are usually ready around 9ish. The staff are always helpful and friendly and full of banter. If ever you find yourself in Rutherglen, do stop in and stock up on some old-fashioned friendly service. And tattie scones. Nom nom nom...

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.

The current shop has been at its present address for forty odd years and is still run by the same family It was started by JIM and June McPhie circa 1973 but I always mind it bring there, years ago when I had just finished my night shift I would go there for my morning rolls and I can still smell the amazing aroma wafting from the shop was nothing short of fantastic. The secret I think to this shop is that they craft all their bakery products with the finest ingredients and it is common knowledge amongst the locals that McPhies supply various hotels the main one being the Hilton in Glasgow, they must be good if they supply five star hotels moreover McPhies were runners up in the supreme Scottish Pie 2005. Every time you go into the shop the array of cakes, pasties and bread is fantastic and as I said previously not the uniform size you get in the supermarkets , the Empire Biscuits are my favourite they are massive and they taste brilliant The staff also know there stuff and the service is always with a big hearty smile the mince pies are to die for and now that I think about it so is the rest on offer as over the years I think I have tried almost everything all on all a local baker who delivers in every aspect of his craft lovely jubly

I first met Rachel at the BBC Good Food Show, where she showed me how to pipe icing properly. When I heard she was opening up, I couldn't have been more excited. Even more so when I found out just how close it was to me. (So much so I have been for the past 2 Saturdays and am most likely going twice this weekend...) This is a bakery, selling cake, cupcakes, tray bakes, teas, coffees and soft drinks. There are a variety of gluten free options available. The bakery is through the back, so the place smells of cake permanently. I've sampled both the red velvet and salted caramel cupcakes. The red velvet was gorgeous, although I loved the salted caramel cupcake more. The centre was filled with ooey gooey caramel. The tea was better than the coffee, coming in individual gorgeous glass teapots. A cup of earl grey is the perfect accompaniment to a piece of cake. I love the quirky antique sets that everything gets served in. Rachel also does custom cakes and cupcakes for all occasions, ranging from weddings, birthdays to graduations. The bakery accepts cash and cards. No outdoor seating (yet!)

Spot on with the buttercream frosting. We will definitely be back. They offer Gluten free and Vegan options. We did see one Gluten free option out but I didn't see any vegan.

I had the eggs Benedict, which was the perfect portion, cooked to perfection, and left me wanting more. The sauce was light and mixed with the egg in a way that was just indescribable. The French toast with bacon offered a great mix of sweet and savory. Syrup was available if you wanted it, but honestly, you didn't need it. My wife had the fluffy scrambled eggs, creamy, cheesy, served over toast with bacon and hash browns. This is something she gets often, and she has had none better than the ones here. The service was excellent. It's not the biggest restaurant, but the tables seem to move fairly quickly, and they have outdoor seating on warmer days. The whole experience was a delightful way to start our day. So if you happen to be in Glasgow, Scotland, you have to check out the Wilton Street Pantry, you will not be disappointed!

Loads of different coloured cupcakes all waiting just to be eaten.. by you.. So get chomping! The extra good news if you are feeling guilty is that they are all made with organic and free trade ingredients. Everything is homemade and you can order cakes big or small for special occasions or because you just want cake. Why wouldn't you? If you prefer something even healthier they make delicious banana bread and carrot cake too. It's a really new shop, and thumbs up for being brave enough to take such a risk. They look like they're trying hard enough to keep the customers happy and coming back including delivery of gift boxes at a humble £5. Hard to argue with them really.

So many people at our reception made a point of commenting on how delicious it was. We'd tried a lot of their cakes before in cafes around Glasgow and loved them. Since we had quite a few gluten-free people at our wedding, they seemed like the perfect choice. They were a delight to work with: they listened carefully to what we wanted, checked in with us frequently to make sure we were happy, and made the process of delivery and setting up super-easy. Their service was always friendly and helpful. I honestly can't recommend Wild Flours highly enough. If you're looking for a great bakery in Glasgow, whether or not you're gluten-free, you really should give them a try.

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.

This is essential preventive maintenance to avoid being sucked in by the goodies on display in the window. Today I forgot the protective ritual, and before I knew it I was standing in the queue behind a lady with a pram, salivating like a dog over all the yummy stuff on display (metaphorically speaking of course - what kind of a slob do you think I am?) Veggie sausage rolls, slices of pizza, flapjacks, tarts, gluten-free cakes, flower-pot bread... (wait, what was that last one again?) - for such a small place they produce a fabulous range of tasty treats to tickle your taste buds. There's no coffee and no seating, but they are, after all a BAKERY, people! Not a coffee house. If you want somewhere to sit, cross the road and sit in Mansfield Park, or on one of the outdoor exercise machines as I saw a lady doing as she scoffed her cake - perhaps the mere presence of the machine was counterbalancing the calorific consumption in her head? Great bakery, and a fantastic addition to the Hyndland Street bohemiana.

I come in here just about every time I am strolling through the neighborhood. The bakers are very friendly! Be aware of the limited hours if you are checking-out MHB for the first time. My favourite savory treats are the tomato basil slice and you can't go wrong with any of the rolls. I even like the vegetarian lentil roll, and I'm as carnivorous as people get! I'm sure many of the other items are good too; I just haven't tried them because I get hung up on the delicious things I have already eaten! Onto the important stuff: CAKES and PASTRIES! I love their chocolate volcanoes! I have a new found love for My Home Bakery's lemon-cranberry cake. You also can't go wrong with the almond-crusted strawberry bakewell. My favorite fruity item is the raspberry crumble dowsed in powdered sugar. And if you can't decide, you may need to order a 'party box' to figure it out (see photos). If I am there in the morning the cinnamon brioches are hard to pass up! I got my friend Jeevan hooked on them too! Long story short, there is a reason why the front door says, "diets end here!"
