The coffee in here is lovely, and there are plenty varieties to choose from. I usually go for the latte which comes in a tall glass with cream, although I did go for a hot chocolate with cream and marshmallows one day and it was marvellous too. They do a good takeaway service and get a lot of trade from workers in the area at lunchtime. Although i would say they are a little slow, so if you are in a rush then phone up ahead of time to pre-order. The cakes in here are also delicious. I recommend the 'lumpy-bumpy' toffee cake and the dime bar cake, both of which are simply magnificent.

My only (tiny) negative is that I find it hard to read the menu which is on the wall behind and to the right of the counter so you have to almost lean over the counter to read it. However, this is a minor issue and is far outweighed by the charms of this fab little cafe.

Maybe the best part is that you can sit down for a coffee and sausage roll, pie etc instead of just taking it away. Prices are competitive and inside is kept clean. At times there don't seem to be many staff available but this is a popular coffee shop and bakery and it is worth waiting to be served.

The layout makes the best use of the space available but sitting in can be quite cramped with tables and chairs close together. There isn't enough space to fold up a child's buggy, or put a wheelchair. The food itself is good quality and freshly made for reasonable prices. Staff are helpful and table service is provided.

There is a wide selection on the menu including rolls, sandwiches toasties .All day breakfast is also served which is delicious as is the fish tea. Everything is homemade and freshly cooked so you may have to wait a bit but its well worth it. Remember to check the board for daily and pensioners specials both at very affordable prices. One last thing the homemade coleslaw is yummy, oh and the staff are very pleasant and always have time for a wee chat.

Getting up before 8am is something that does not come easily to me…read more No matter how hard I try, I simply can't shift my body from that cosy, warm duvet that envelops me when my alarm goes off. No matter how early I go to bed, I never feel ready to get up. And no matter how early I try and get up, I always snooze the alarm once too many, which makes me late. The solution to my lateness arrived at Motherwell Train Station in 2007, and has thrived ever since. Meet n Eat snack shack sits right outside the main entrance of the station, and is always queued out, especially early in the morning. I can't function without something to eat, but don't always have the time, so this wee shack is perfect for me to grab something and go. It sells the usual, stodgy typically Scottish greasy brekkie things, like rolls with egg, sausage, potato scones and bacon, and coffee and tea. The rolls are fairly priced at around £1.30ish each, with an extra pound added on for a 'doubler'. You even get to choose what type of roll; crispy or soft. A crispy roll with a potato scone and red sauce is manna from heaven at 8am, and really sets you up for the day. The woman seemed ok, although she did get my boyfriends order wrong, but who's with it at that ungodly hour??
