Whether you're after a wee snacky delicacy for a dinner starter (or dessert!), that essential but hard-to-find exotic ingredient that you simply must-have for a recipe, a designer beer or three, or even a quality malt whisky, Peckhams is the place that you're likely to find it. I usually visit here when my eye is caught by a fancy malt whisky in the window (cunningly displayed right beside their cash machine, the cads!), or when I'm seeking margaritas mix for what has become a Christmas cocktails tradition with us. The West End would be a poorer place without Peckhams. Long may they continue.

I love Peckhams. I'm probably there far too often. They pride themselves on being able to cater to your foodie needs all day long, with pastries and rolls in the morning, a wide range of lunch options and even their own range of freshly made ready meals for dinner. Then of course they have offers for coffee and cake, should you need anything else in between. As far as I'm concerned, this is what delis should be like. They would get five stars out of five too, but the service can be just a little bit on the slow side. I don't mean when they're struggling with the lunchtime rush because that's fair enough. I mean, it can take them a few minutes to realise that you haven't been served, and in serving you some things they can be very slow (don't bother getting butter on your roll in the morning, unless you've got plenty of time on your hands). It's easy to forgive them because they're friendly and helpful and because everything is delicious but if they were just a tiny bit more efficient Peckhams would be perfect.

I visited Deli 53 when in search of a take out lunch. It was light, bright and looked like a lovely…read morecalm place to sit and eat lunch, which I certainly would have done if I had a bit more time. I think others have mentioned that calling it a "deli" is a bit of a stretch. It mostly focusses on sandwiches and paninis, although they do also serve soup and filled baked potatoes. Plus coffee and tea, of course. There's also a shelf all along one wall selling various pastas and tinned and dried goods. I ordered the Maklini (parma ham, mozzarella and tomatoes) panini on brown bread. I'm normally a bit wary of ordering sandwiches with parma ham because I hate when you get a sandwich with almost none in it. Just one sarcastic sliver of ham won't cut it for me. Fortunately this sandwich was very generously filled. I'd come back. The price was pretty good and it looks like they have a breakfast deal with a coffee and a pastry. I think it would be an especially nice space to sit and relax in for an hour or so.

Places like Polish Taste, only act to cement this feeling. Whilst in the area at the weekend and having just picked up some awesome cakes and sausage rolls at Cottonrake (find review, read, love and visit!) I decided that the fresh white loaves in the window were just far too tempting to avoid. But hey, it's not just bread that's on offer in this kick ass wee deli. From perogies (spelling?) to awesome sausages, tinned good and fresh fruit. I've been back, I'll be back again and would advise anyone who's in the area to pop in for a nosey. Yes it's probably more expensive than the nearby T (ends in esco), but it's quality and unique. Yum.

Polish Taste, a Polish delicatessen on Hyndland Road is definitely worth a visit. And, trust me on…read morethis one, you most definitely do not have to be Polish to appreciate the magic of this place. The authenticity of this place, though, is perfect. Although I'm not Polish, I've spent quite a lot of time there and am a big fan of the culture. As soon as you step through the doors of this deli - you feel a bit like you're actually in Warsaw, and not in the West End of Glasgow. Wood paneling and straw baskets make this place undeniably cute, and as well as shelves and shelves of canned and tinned goods (all in Polish - obviously) you'll also find fresh goods. This includes a meat counter to die for (what can I say? I'm a carnivore at heart) as well as a mini bakery and lots and lots of cheese. All these products are delicious - and also very reasonably priced. I also love the fact that they sell Polish newspapers and magazines here. This definitely adds to the sense that a trip into Polish Taste is like a mini-holiday to Eastern Europe!

Beyond Mexican food, I was happy to find Frank's Red Hot sauce, dill pickles, and Hidden Valley Ranch dressing packets.

We popped in here on Saturday following Yelp's first Brunch Club next door at Cafezique. I just…read morewanted a stickybeak as I wasn't sure what the difference between Delizique and Cafezieque is (I'm still not really sure). At Delizique you can buy cakes/bread to go, and there isn't as many deli options as you would think from the name. The bread and cake is a long a counter as you go in the main door, which is also where people who have eaten in the dining space are paying for their food, and is the main thoroughfare so it gets pretty busy. There was an impressive array of cakes including chocolate brownies, cheesecake and a gluten free option of lemon polenta cake. We went for a brownie and the polenta cake and both were delicious when we scoffed them at home. I'd definitely pop back to check out their cake options again, as well as trying them out for food as I was pretty impressed by Cafezique.

I ordered a latte and thinking I would get a decent amount of coffee, I was left disappointed. You know those small glasses you get for water? That's what the latte came in. A friend and myself, although I had had breakfast a few hours previously, decided to go for pancakes. Now, the flavourings sounded amazing - from something that we believed was going to taste like carrot cake to apple and cinnamon (which is what I went for). First, we waited for ages. When the "pancake" finally arrived, it was a huge skillet type pancake. They looked good and smelled lovely. Unfortunately, upon cutting in, my friend found her's to be completely raw in the centre (think batter), and mine was burnt on the underside - completely burnt. They also, unfortunately, lacked a lot of flavour and were very dry. The raw pancake was replaced with a free and un-raw one, and I ate about three quarters of mine (but I wasn't happy about it). It's also really quite warm in here. The few things that redeem this place is the bread on display (beautiful, beautiful bread) and the veggie sausage roll (which does not look like a sausage roll at all, but taste lovely). I also really like the tree inside the room. The staff is also very friendly.

I used to be a regular at their other shop in the town, but after a bad coffee one day l just never…read morehad the urge to go back, I saw this new place opening up and called in for a quick visit on the passing on my way to the west end. 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.

I had intended to have one bite on the walk home and oops, I ate the whole thing! My commute home will now be compromised by urges to pick up one of those decadent morsels! Course number two was the Stong Italian sandwich! Who doesn't like strong Italians? Anyway, I chose Salami for my meat and it came with Mozzarella and sunblush tomatoes! I was lucky to be there on a day they ran out of their 'normal bread', so I ended up with their 'special' Italian bread. I think it is normally an up charge; I have a feeling I will be paying for it in the future because it hit the spot! Although, I am curious what the standard bread may be? I had mine toasted and for the Strong Italian that was the way to go! The juices of the tomatoes combined with the oils from the salami and mozzarella soaked into the toasty bread, making every last bite delectable! Though I chose one of their signature sandwiches, the menu is very flexible so you can make your own delicious concoction. Oh and all sandwiches can be made as salads as well! Aside from the quality food to order, there is a nice selections of cakes, jams etc along the wall. Roscoe's also has a small seating area if you would like to stay and eat. Honestly, the atmosphere is quite pleasant in general. As far as customer service goes, I met Roscoe's mom, and she was a sweetheart. She also made me my amazing sandwich! I have absolutely no complaints, and I have a feeling I may become a regular!

They're about the same size and always packed, and huzzah, their sandwiches are delicious at both locations.

The guy ahead of me wanted a chicken tikka sandwich but they were out of a couple of the ingredients, so he ordered something else. When it was my turn to order, the guy jokingly said 'let's see if I'm able to make your sandwich!" I ordered the Chiken Ole which was chicken meat, manchego cheese, chorizo, salsa and a spicy mayo on ciabatta. The only one thing they didn't have was the salsa, which in exchange they offered me a bit of salad with some sweet chili sauce. I decided against the sauce and took the salad! What a delightful sandwich this was. My stomach is growling just thinking about it! The bread was freshly baked and so delicious, even at 2pm. The ingredients were all fresh and piled high in to the bread. I also grabbed a bag of crisps and a lemon mint san pellagrino. The greatest lunch on the go I've had in a long while. The guys in here were cool as anything and the music was great. The queues might be long but the sandwiches are worth it. They also serve soups, coffee and baked goods if you're looking for something sweet. I will be back for sure!
