Probably the best full English/Scottish breakfast I've had after a couple weeks in the UK. The beans are homemade and nicely, lightly spiced. The blood pudding was phenomenal- if you're a fan. Coffees were solid too. Portion sizes were large, staff was friendly, the place was spotlessly clean, and they played some good indie music. Absolutely a place I'd recommend and return for another meal if ever given the chance. read more

Loved this little cafe, tons of pastries and drink options. Got the brunch menu, did not disappoint. Also staff is so kind and friendly

Must do spot. The breakfast and drinks were great, but their desserts are THE show stoppers. We shared a main dish and made sure to leave extra room for dessert and wish we wouldn't have taken some to go. Just do yourself a favor and go - you won't regret it! read more

Great place for brunch. Their veggie breakfast is fantastic. The coffee is pretty good too. If I lived closer, I'd be in here every day! My only problem with the place is getting a booking as it's always really busy! Consequently, noise levels are on the loud side at times, but it's a large enough space inside for it to be bearable. It's dog-friendly too, although larger woofers are usually directed to the outside tables. read more

We only were in Glasgow for 1,5 days and were fortunate to discover this place for our first breakfast in the area. Even though we never visit the same place twice while traveling so we could experience more, we actually ended up coming back to Singl-End Garnethill the next morning, which says a lot. If we lived in Glasgow, I can imagine us coming here on a regular basis. One of the best breakfasts we've ever had, super nice staff, a cozy and lovely interior, reasonable prices, and a display of desserts that you can't possibly ignore! The cherry on top is that it's a dog-friendly cafe, and while we were away from our dog during vacation, it was nice to see other people with dogs that came in. read more

What wasn't great about this place? Nothing! I had the Rabbie's eggs (haggis eggs Benedict) and it was perfect. The sriracha hollandaise was surprisingly good. (I'm not a big sriracha fan, but this was a treat.). My partner had the Stornoway eggs and she loved 'em. Service was prompt and attentive and friendly. Can't wait to go back. read more

Absolutely such a cute restaurant for breakfast. Lots of options for breakfast, but since it was my last day in Glasgow I wanted a proper Scottish breakfast. I ordered the very good portion of the MEATY. Eggs, bacon, pork sausages, black pudding, potatoes, cherry tomatoes, and beans. I had to be strategic about how I ate since I was alone, and I eat like a pigeon. Food was delicious, and the servers were so nice to always check in on me. Lucky I beat the morning crowd, because by the time I left it was full house. ENJOY! PS: You walk down some stairs before you see the entrance. It's somewhat hard to find, I had to ask someone. :) read more

If you're feeling like brunch, or if you're a tad hungover, this is the place to go. I've only ever tried their breakfasts and cakes but I'm a huge fan. Their meaty breakfast is brilliant but their veggie breakfast is so so good, I could eat a plateful of that haggis alone. Their selection of cakes is incredible so definitely have one for dessert (or take one home). read more

Excellent vegetarian options, even if you like bacon for your breakfast, you will likely go for a vegetarian dish here and just order the bacon as a side. Particularly liked "The Betty" - the best "spicy" breakfast/brunch I have ever had. The home made granola was also delicious. Very good bread choices, too (don't just go for the sourdough, try the specialty breads - you won't regret it!) Good service and it's great that you can sit outside even when it's raining. read more

Wow. This is one of my absolute favourite new finds in Glasgow. As soon as I walked in I genuinely thought 'Yup. I will definitely be back'. First off as soon as you walk in you're greeted with a selection of fresh breads. Have I died and gone to heaven?! A place where you can choose what kind of bread you want with your meal!!!!!!!!! Soda bread is my all time favourite bread, reminding me of childhood trips to Donegal & Singl-End make one of the best I've ever tried. Can also vouch for the sweet potato and almond bread which is a sweet alternative. Ok so you've seen the bread. You then turn round to go into the restaurant and BAM. Cake Table. The variety on offer is just incredible. Got your classics of caramel shortcake etc then goodies such as peanut butter & jam muffins. Lots of them are gluten free & vegan too if that's you're kinda thang. The venue itself is just incredible. Set underneath a tenement block at Charing Cross it has really kept to its Glasgow roots. Glass tables have inserts of old postcards, letters & photos detailing the types of trips my Granny always goes on about. And I do love a good bathroom... Singl-End has one of the best I've seen. The sinks are made of old Singer sewing tables with exposed copper pipes. The menu itself provides something different & it's the all day breakfasts that win hands down. I've tried a few of the dishes now and my favourite hands down is the meaty spicy baked eggs. Such a tasty mix of tomatoes, chilli, beans & pork & fennel sausages, it's perfect for any time of day! Have also sampled some of their daily specials too which never fail to impress. On the day we visited we had prawns, chorizo & tomatoes as well as a goats cheese & spinach omelette. The food is fresh and tasty and the staff are clearly passionate about what they do. I'm forever trying to suss out when I can next get into there! Everyone I've taken so far has always fallen in love with it too, which means more visits for me!! read more

I teeter here again at 4 and a half: the staff are always pleasant and helpful, vegan cake selection is great, they offer two types of non-dairy milk (soya and almond), and do have marked vegan savoury options, but there is still a bit of awkwardness having to ask for adaptations and last time I had an open sandwich which didn't seem much for the price. For vegans I would definitely recommend for coffee & a cake, or soup and bread, but would be less likely to go for a meal. They had two salads and I had to ask which were vegan (one was), the cake I asked for initially they didn't have as the table menus hadn't been updated, and I had to ask for the creme freche (not mentioned on the menu) that arrived with the sweet potato chips to be swapped for a non-dairy sauce. None of these things were a big deal and staff were very accommodating, I think the menu design made it a bit more difficult to decide what to have as well. Neither of the soups were marked as veggie or vegan, and the polenta sweet potato chips could easily be vegan but weren't marked so because of the dip. It was an enjoyable brunch - out with other Yelpers as part of brunch club - and for the service and cakes I'm happy to bump up to 5, but would prefer to have an easier to read menu. read more

Brunch! Is it the best meal of the day? I'm going to say yes, yes it is. There isn't many meals I love more than brunch and I am always excited about trying somewhere new for brunch when Brunch Club comes around. I was glad that Singl-end were able to take a booking for our large group (I did need to leave a £5pp deposit on card which they gave back to me in cash on the day) and I thought they handled a large group really well. There's always a bit of back-and-forth with drinks/food orders but all the staff looking after our table were really friendly, calm and competent which was great! The brunch menu is all kinds of amazing. I was struggling to decide and that's before I looked at the specials board. I stuck with the usual brunch menu and got the veggie breakfast with avocado. The veggie breakfast comes with eggs your way (poached, obviously), roast sweet potato, mushroom, roasted cherry tomatoes, home-baked beans and spinach, and a slice of toasted bread from the bread menu. Yes, BREAD MENU. This place has a bread menu. And don't stress if you're gluten free as they have tonnes of options for you. Yesterday's selection included brown Hovis, sourdough, seeded, nut-olive, rosemary focaccia, sweet potato and almond, banana pecan and scones. Woah. What a whopper bread menu. I had sweet potato and almond. So how was the food? Well, the fact I managed to steal two of Graeme's eggs meant I had a full-to-bursting plate of veggies with 4 eggs and the sweet potato almond bread, but I was up for the challenge. Of all the veggie breakfasts I've had in my years, I think this was my favourite purely because it was so VEGGIE. Everything was cooked perfectly and I loved the roast sweet potato for something different. Even the beans were good, and I hate beans. The avocado was amazing and had chili through it, I was so glad I got it as extra. I have to agree with Gordon who said the sweet potato bread was probably a little too sweet for a breakfast food but I still really liked it. I also decided to try a smoothie even though I know milk/milk-type things can make me feel sick. Their smoothies are made with coconut milk and I actually didn't feel sick from it, so that was a win. I had the green smoothie with apple, avocado, cucumber, spinach, mint, lime and coconut milk. I liked how it was presented in a Jeremiah Weed jar and for £4 not bad value as it was really large. I'd definitely have one again and apparently the added option of oats is totally worth it. We got some cakes to take away (yeh, I know, I'd eaten a LOT already) and loved the passionfruit vegan one. The cake table is epic and there was a lot of Yelpers drooling near it (not on it) during the brunch. I loved Singl-end. This place is great. So great in fact that I'm going back today for lunch. Notes: the rest of the place was medium-busy on a Sunday so I reckon you could easily rock up and get a table without too much stress. read more

My boyfriend and I were saying recently how we just wanted to go somewhere and get a decent sandwich that's not too far from the city centre. After hearing about Singl-end, we decided to go one day for brunch. The entrance is down a set of steps but it's well signed. Before I stepped in, my eyes lit up at the table of cakes I could see through the window. Inside, the decor is quite cool. We sat at a picnic style table that had old stamps and hymn verses on it. As soon as we were in, a waitress was ready to show us to a seat which I liked because I hate that awkward standing around when everyone's busy. The service was super friendly and I never felt rushed at all. I went for scrambled eggs on rosemary focaccia and my boyfriend went for the steak sandwich with soda bread. I love bread and so a place where we can choose a variety, is a winner in my eyes. Although what I had looked quite small, it filled me up and I then had a salted caramel brownie (recommended by the waitress). Outside, they have a little seating area which would be nice to sit out on a sunny day. Service was fab, food was yummy, they serve lovely cakes and they do proper sandwiches - win win! read more

Holy mother! I've just eaten double my body weight at Singl-end, and I have no qualms in being that overly keen gal on a first date who immediately tells all her pals: I am head over heels in love! I actually popped in here with a friend for brunch on a day trip to Glasgow. Upon getting the menu, you also get a list of the freshly baked breads to choose from to go with your meal. Now, I'm not talking about boring ole Hovis & Kingsmill, it's all ridiculously amazing artisan combos all made in house, ranging from classic safes like Sourdough to Sweet Potato & almond combos. I ordered the latter with Eggs Benedict, which made me giddy when it arrived as its served on a tower of sweet potato, spinach and red onion jam with a gauc and hollandaise sauce on top. It was insanely good, and it's gotta be one of the best brunches I've had in the UK. Plus the portion size was awesome, as much as I would have liked to order more things to try, but my body literally wouldn't allow for it :( Having said that, they had such a great selection of baked in house cakes that we didn't want to miss out on, so we left, walked off our full bellies, AND CAME BACK IN FOR DESSERT. Like not even 2 hours later!! If that's not going to sway you on this place you clearly have no soul. Baby bundt cakes, pb&j cake, sticky cinnamon buns, brownies and traybakes that look as taste as good as they look and are really well priced too. I love that they have veggi, vegan & gluten free options across all menus, so it's a great place to bring your nut allergy friend or that pal who's always on some weird new diet but misses eating nice food ;) They have Papercup coffee, a great tea selection and a list of juices to boot, lovely staff and the options of sitting on sofas or eating at a table. Nice casual atmosphere with quirky decor too. I literally have no complaints, but one piece of advice: come hungry!! read more

Here for brunch club - because brunch is the best meal of any day - and I was intrigued to get to Singl-end. Having read the reviews I was looking forward to this a lot! First impressions, it's a lot bigger inside than you think, and it's laid out and decorated in a shabby chic kinda way which is nice if not that original. We had a couple of tables booked - there were 20 people at this brunch club - and hats off to the staff who never kept us waiting and got all the orders to us in good time! I ordered the Singl-End Eggs Benedict - which, as Debs pointed out, wasn't actually 'Benedict' as there wasn't any ham - Poached egg on slices of roast sweet potato with spinach and red onion topped with cashew and tarragon hollandaise sauce, I choose a sweet potato and almond bread to go with it. I'd had a couple of cappuccinos before my food arrived, the coffee is good but nothing special, and when my food arrived it looked great. Presentation across most of the plates looked good, rather than the 'throw it on the plate' approach that some places take with a brunch. The eggs were a little overcooked for my liking, but overall the dish was nice. However without the ham it was all just a little bland and overly sweet. The 'hollandaise' (which wasn't hollandaise) had a sweet aftertaste which, when you added the sweet potato and fried red onion, just made the dish unbalanced. By the end, whilst I ate everything, it was obvious that it needed something with a bit more punch, a bit more savoury/saltiness I think to balance out everything else which was all very similar in taste and texture, even the addition of some crispy bacon would've made this much better! Add in the slice of bread, which was more like a cake loaf, and I was underwhelmed. It's clear the skills are there, I just think the dish itself needs rethought. Undeterred by the barrage of sweetness, I also had a slice of caramel shortcake which was heavy on the chocolate and caramel, with the solid base the saving grace I think. So perhaps it was my choice of dish - although I don't like fennel, so the sausages weren't an option - but I'm not sure I'd hurry back. read more

If I lived here, I would frequent this cafe, no doubt. I tried the famed sweet potato bread in the form of an open-faced beet hummus sandwich, and I was not disappointed. It was super delicious and involved tons of roasted veggies - exactly what I needed after several days of fried food and whatnot. Decent service. I would say the ambience is a little stark due to the basement setting, but the food is so good that I didn't really care. read more

Singl-end Garnethill - Open faced beet hummus sandwich on sweet potato - Cafes Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

Singl-end is a hidden treasure, located just behind Sauchiehall Street on Renfrew Street. Once you enter this basement coffee shop come restaurant it's hard not to be immediately enchanted by the large bo-ho style space. I loved the cool young funky vibe here, the cool decor and the huge tables of cakes that you have to walk by as soon as you walk in. It's a little slice of chilled out heaven on a Sunday morning and I could imagine losing the whole day here just hanging out. I had decided before I even got out of bed that I was going to have the baked spicy eggs, there was just no way I could resist this dish. Described as Eggs oven baked in a casserole of homemade pork and fennel sausage, cannellini beans, tomato and chilli served with bread. The dish was absolutely lovely. The eggs were perfectly cooked and runny once the yolk was burst (yum!) There were 3 big chunks of the fennel sausage which was gorgeously meaty, and the bean and tomato sauce was packed with tangy flavour - although I wouldn't exactly have called it spicy. It was still an incredibly well put together dish which was probably big enough for two. My only gripe with the dish was that I had to leave my toasted sour dough because it was far too crunchy and hard for me, which I really dislike. After looking at the cakes for about 10 minutes I finally decided on a cinnamon bun. The bun was doughy but still managed to be light and was full of tasty cinnamon and packed with chopped pecans which I love.... The more pecans the better I think - infact you could say I am nuts for them (oh the banter! ) Including a few lattes & a smoothie my bill came to about £18 I think which I was more than happy with. The standard of the food was excellent and there was so much of it that it's hard to find fault with the cost. Singl-end is a gorgeous hip cafe doing some really lovely tasty dishes which you can tell a lot of thought has gone into. Would definitely recommend this spot.... I'll be back for sure. read more

Hands up I've been a very bad Yelper of late ( with not enough hours in the day for my day job + businessy plans) , so I was delighted to be asked by the lovely Briony to meet for a catch-up. I've walked past a few times and having read some great reviews I was really keen to try Singl-end. The decor inside was very homely and quirky, and I loved (like seriously I might steal the idea), the tables with postcards and stamps underneath. It wasn't too busy when we entered but the waitress immediately came over and gave us water and the menus. Too much choice time set in although I did know I wanted winter spice tea which was really tasty. It was one of those awkward times - its not quite lunch and far too early for dinner so something sweet was called for. The cake display is pretty impressive with a good selection for veggies/ gluten free etc. As usual I was pretty drawn to the caramel chocolate slice thing but it looked pretty hearty for a light snack, so I opted for some of the sweet potato bread which is more of a cake with some butter and jam. The bread was really dense yet delicious and something I've not seen anywhere else. The menu has a fantastic range of brunch and lunch dishes and a lot of vegan dishes so I'm keen to pay a visit again soon. I'm pretty sure they're only open till around 6pm but it would be lovely if somewhere like this was open later and I can imagine the meals would be fantastic. Briony enjoyed her tea and cake ( I think she had carrot) and hopefully I'll get to more Yelp events sometime soon ! x read more

I love Singl-end. I've loved it ever since it was an Italian restaurant, and I still love it now, especially since it's transformed into a homey bakehouse with tons of choices for cakes! Yay! I went over for brunch with Gian yesterday. As we walked in, we were greeted with grand tables of cakes and fresh bread. OH GALORE! Can you feel my excitement? I'm ecstatic while typing out this review and reminiscing briefly on my beautiful meal. Anyway, we were seated in the cozy corner at the back, and were given the menus. They've got a really appetizing range of food! All ranging from 7-11GBP, so it's not gonna break the bank for ya! We ordered from the list of cooked breakfasts; a veggie breakfast (with a side of bacon teehee) for me and a vegan one for Gian. Both were 8GBP (but mine was a lil extra cause of my bacon which was SUPER crunchy and I have no regrets)! Safe to say that we had a delicious and fulfilling first meal of the day! How I wish I could eat like a champion all day err'day! Nice thing is that they serve most of their dishes with fresh bread baked by them! And they have like 6-7 different choices, from olive and nut, to garlic rosemary foccacia, to brown wheat! So many to try! :D We also had 2 cakes (3GBP each) and coffees (which I think were more or less 2GBP each). I had the double chocolate cake which, just like it sounds, was AMAZING. It was not too sweet and was sooo ... sooo ... RICH. I loved it! Was over the moon filled with joy! Gian had the maple, apple and ginger cake which he really liked as well! He said the icing/glaze was super light and refreshing (possibly coconuty). And for you vegans/gluten free dieters, this bakehouse has quite a bit of variety when it comes to their baked goods that are best suited for your lifestyle! I mean, vegan cakes? This won't make me feel guilty about my love for cakes ehehehehe I'd like to also add that they have a super rad coffee machine that looks like something from a steampunk movie! We HAD to have a cuppa then! Was a pretty pleasant cup for me. :) Gian's soy cappuccino was made well too! No lumps or bumps! There's ample of space in the bakehouse too! Like really A LOT of room. So if you're the type to work on your laptop but like to change up your "office", you could try popping into Singl-end! They have a nice comfy nook with sofas and warm lighting, perfect for cold rainy days! They also have wifi! And they're doggy friendly! Lastly, staff are amazing. Friendly and quick. Really nothing to complain here! I'm pretty sure you can tell how much love there is in this post for Singl-end. I adore this place so much and am excited to continue visiting and trying all their dishes and cake creations! :) read more

Brunch club is always one of the highlights of my month and I think that Singl-end is my favourite so far. I loved the mismatchy, chilled out feel of the place, the staff were great, the food was amazing and the cake table was a thing of beauty. Their brunch menu is brilliant full of all the usual suspects but with a few curve balls thrown in for good measure and the specials ensured that all my careful prep was wasted and I was as horribly indecisive as usual. After some serious soul searching I ordered the mushrooms and emmental cheese on a sourdough bread for me and a kids cheese on toast for my tiny dining companion. Brilliantly they brought the huge kids portion of cheese on toast really quickly to entertain the hooligan and I was really impressed to see it served with some sticks of cucumber, carrot and cherry tomatoes. Puff was less than impressed with this and was happy for me to deal with the veggies while she focused on the cheese and carbs! My mushrooms were amazing a really generous portion and was delicious. Fantastically fresh and tasty ingredients and just writing about them is making me seriously consider how I can manage to contrive a single-end brunch tomorrow... I also had to sample a purple smoothie, anything with beetroot is tempting and whilst I was a little put out by the fact that my smoothie was most definitely red and not purple the taste more than made up for the false advertising of the colours. Of course having had to pass the cake table on our way to be seated I wasn't going to resist the urge to sample something, for the purposes of a full and rounded review only of course! And the salted caramel brownie made the calorific overload all worthwhile. Singl-end isn't somewhere I'll ever just pass and decide to drop in but it is somewhere that I'll make a point of going out of the way to get to. read more

I've been in twice now, both times for weekend brunch. They have a good range of options for meat eaters, vegetarians and vegans. They also have an awesome selection of gluten free breads, including an amazing focaccia. The coffee is good and the service friendly.

Singl-end Garnethill - Steak sandwich on focaccia - the bomb! - Cafes Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

I love yelp Sunday brunches :D it's great to discover places like this! This was a difficult star rating to decide on. Based on my choice of food I'd have given them 2 but the overall experience and other people's food choices leads me to a higher star rating. I love this space. I dig open plan, exposed floors, rustic mix and match styles. Their outdoor seating area is just adorable but either they are in the worst place for catching sun or March sun just wasn't strong enough. They have little nooks with quirky seating and pictures. The staff were wonderfully friendly and helpful and I can't fault them in the slightest. However...their Chai latte was very disappointing. They serve a pot of chai tea {tea bag} and a glass of steamed milk. It didn't go down to well that's for sure. It just didn't get strong enough to over power the milk. The smoothies however! Delicious :) I had the Yellow which was a perfect blend of sweet yet natural and healthy tasting. I ordered from the Specials menu for my brunch. They offered a black pudding, bacon, poached egg and apple on bread. I swapped out the black pudding for extra bacon, which was really tasty. But overall I feel really ripped off. It cost £8 and only came with 1 egg, 4 strips of bacon, 1 slice of bread and a couple of slices of Apple. Meh. I was still hungry and it just wasn't that great. The egg was bland and the bread unmemorable. For dessert I picked the millionaires caramel short bread. I keep getting caught out by these at the moment. A new trend has developed of swapping chocolate topping for gnash which honestly just makes it too sickly. The base was a bit too hard too. I usually like it quite firm but I need to be able to get my fork into it! They do have amazing dog treats :D my dog seemed to enjoy them very much! I want to go back and try something else as I love their style and atmosphere, so we shall see. read more

My very first Brunch Club and my first visit to Singl-end. I'd never ventured up this part of town before, you could pass it so easily and never be any the wiser. It is bigger than I expected with an eclectic decor. It made me instantly feel at home, this was my kinda place. The staff were polite, helpful and very friendly. I went for the spicy cauliflower soup and Welsh rarebit with leeks on sourdough bread. The original dish had ham, and they were happy to exclude it for my order. I was starving before I got to Singl-end and left completely full. I couldn't even manage a cake (I did get one to take away though). Looking at the menu, there wasn't a dish that jumped out at me as something I needed to have right now or would go back time and again for. There was a wide variety of dishes and I'm sure I'd be able to find something to eat whenever I visit again. I took a Jaffa Cake cake home with me and shared it with the hubby. Devine. Moist, flavoursome and left me wishing I'd never shared. read more

I have been wanting to try single-end for what feels like an age so when i had some time to kill before an appt it seemed like a good idea to pop in. I love the fact that a gluten free diet is looked on here as the norm and the lovely folks here bake their own gf bread in store. Today i chose the mushroom soup with a ham and cheese sandwitch. The soup was lovely ... really thick and creamy and quite a big portion. I was a little confused by my sandwitch as it arrived like cheese on toast but it was equally delightful. There was such a huge variety of cakes to choose from that it seemed rude not to try one. I went for the peanut butter and jelly cake which was lovely but a little bit of the dry and heavier side. There was a slice of caramel slide that has my name on it for next time. Its also nice to see the vegan diets well catered for here also. Nice to see Glasgow sit up and take note of dietery requirements. read more

Can't believe it took me so long to try this place. Loved it! As soon as you walk in the door, you're met with two tables full of beautiful cakes and bread, amongst other delights. There's a side door for disabled access or anyone bringing in prams or buggies. This place is dog friendly too. Yay! I love the space in here, such a nice place to relax and catch up with friends over really lovely food and coffee. I ordered the full vegan breakfast, which was really healthy and very filling. You get to choose which kind of bread you'd like too. The breakfast consisted of sweet potato, beans, spinach, red onion, avocado, mushroom, tomatoes and super seeded bread. Had a soya latte which was lovely too. Managed to squeeze in a lovely mango and passionfruit cake, which was beautiful. They had several vegan cake and bread options. The staff were all lovely too, can't wait to go back! read more

Such an adorable cafe, quirky and just the right level of kitsch. You're greeted by a mouthwatering array of baked goods as you walk through the door but I managed to resist and instead went for a savoury option in the form of a veggie burger. The burger patty was full of mushrooms and packed a meaty punch. Sandwiched between two brioche buns, topped with pickled cucumbers, and accompanied by perfectly crisp sweet potato fries this wasn't your everyday veggie burger it was above and beyond. I was left too full to even contemplate dessert which was a blessing in disguise as it means I'll have to venture back soon to check that the sweet options live up to the savoury! read more

What a great place, with a fantastic ambience. The brunch menu is a great take on fairly standard brunch menu's with its own individual flare. The place was jumping with a queue for tables like I've only ever seen in London and San Francisco. They've obviously built a tremendous reputation for themselves in a fairly short time.

I've now visited Singl-end a few more times and I definitely think it deserves that fifth star! I've sampled a few more of their vegan cakes, all of which have been wonderful. Favourites so far are the peanut butter & jelly one and the toffee apple one. Yum. The other day I also finally tried their full vegan breakfast, which was everything I had hoped for and more. A wonderful combination of baked beans, roasted sweet potato, mushroom and tomatoes, sautéed spinach and red onion, mashed avocado, and delicious bread. It wa sjust bursting with flavour! Moreover, the service has been wonderful every time I've been. Very genuine and friendly! read more

Ahhh the Singl-end Eggs Benedict is so good! Layers of sweet potato, red onion and spinach topped with a poached egg & avocado. I'm honestly in heaven! I had mine with a slice of nut and olive bread. It was so filling but SO DELICIOUS! And the presentation? I LOVE IT! Glad I've got that out my system! Still as lovely as it was before and it is so nice to go somewhere and automatically receive a bottle of water for the table. It's a really nice touch and definitely appreciated. After my disappointing cake the last time, I had the Caramel Shortcake Slice which was delicious (made with dark chocolate which I particularly liked). One of my friends had the double chocolate cake and she liked it, but felt it was a bit dry. I'm starting to think it is a shame they go to such make effort making these yummy cakes and loaves for them to sit out uncovered and become really dry. It's a shame really. I'm not sure for cakes I'm a huge fan at all.... But I loved my Eggs Benedict and I'll definitely be trying out more items on the menu! read more

Awesome place to check out in Glasgow! About a 10 min walk from the city centre, this place met our needs for a great brunch. First off, they are very diet/allergy friendly. A wide variety of gluten free, dairy free, and even vegan choices. It was very cool to see that, all while never losing touch with traditional ingredients, as well. My first impression of the restaurant was awe and excitement over the local artwork they had displayed for sale. I almost couldn't manage to sit at the table long enough to give my order, before wanting to hop up and check it all out! The baked goods display was also pretty amazing. Such treats for the eyes all around. The food was great. Our party of 6 all enjoyed every bite. I had the spicy meat baked eggs. The flavor was on point. It was just so, so good and filling. My *only* complaint is that my eggs were overcooked. Meanwhile, my friend got the vegetarian version and her eggs were perfect. It's a timing thing, but nothing I hold against them. I still thoroughly enjoyed my dish. We grabbed a few of the baked goodies for our long trip to Skye that afternoon, and those were equally yummy. I'd definitely go here again. I've already recommended it to a friend who is traveling to Glasgow next week. Definitely check out this little gem! read more

One word comes to mind when I think back to my experience at singl-end and that is harmonious. It simply works. Take a slight detour off the well beaten track and you'll soon be trying to beat people to a table. (It can be busy). This is only a testament to the simple yet sublime food and drink on offer. Brunch heaven for an Easter Sunday or any Sunday or any day day if the week to be honest. I've been in glasgow 10 years and ha spades this place so many times without venturing in. Well, I can see it being a regular event. Next time came and a Bloody Mary may be on the cards. read more

Heaven! Amazing breakfast/brunch. Loved everything we had. Must try the halloumis (fried cheese) and the granola. The avocado smash and a side of beans went well with our eggs. Great sourdough bread. If they're busy, wait! It moves quickly and is worth the wait. read more

Singl-end Garnethill - Halloumis "fried cheese" and Avo smash - Cafes Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

Reviews on yelp are hard, I would have given two stars because of the lack-luster service (soup came out at the same time as entree, I had to toss the soup in the bin after hauling it around in a take-away container for an hour. I wasn't even offered to have it taken off the bill due to staff not paying attention to her orders. Having said that, I had the Baked Meaty Eggs and it was everything! The beans so good (and plentiful), spicy meaty sausage, and eggs cooked to perfection. The bake is HUGE so order it if you are hungry and do not order a soup before hand. We were there at lunch on a Wednesday and it was busy enough. If I was a local, I would skip it, there seems to be many more options out there that will probably treat you better. read more

So close to 5 stars and yet completely soured at the last moment. I had breakfast at Singl-End this morning and my word was it fantastic. The menu is one of those "I need to come back to this place for this other tasty thing, oh my god, the choices, their killing me" menus where everything looks and sounds so good that you end up closing your eyes and pointing to distance yourself from making decisions (a.k.a. Adulting). It's increasingly common to see oat milk as an option in coffee places in Glasgow, what isn't necessarily as common is people knowing how to still make good coffee with it's different texture. Happily I can report the Singl-End has no such issue. Our OM Flat Whites were delicate and velvety, a treat. When our baked eggs came, in sizzling skillets (with cosies over the handles for people who don't understand what heat is), they were majestic. Not just a feast for the eyes though, the mix of beans, halloumi, veg and eggs was delicious and more-ish. In terms of value for money it is a little expensive, but it's very good and so it's hard to complain. It's hard to complain. I'm repeating that on purpose because this is a 5 star review with a sad twist at the end which knocked a full star (maybe a star and a half but I round up) off the review. Paying was a shit show. It took nearly 12 minutes to pay. That's not 12 minutes at our table, that's 12 minutes standing near the till waiting while only 2 people were ahead of us in the queue. I'm my eyes this is appalling. Made worse by the till being positioned in such a way that to queue there you have the drinks pass on your left, the food pass on your right, the cakes and a table of people trying to enjoy breakfast behind you and the door, right there. Yep. You're in the way, completely, to almost every operation. You'd think that they're would be a team effort then to process payment as quick as possible, but no, just one person who in addition to that was putting together a £50 take away cake order. Shit show. That it took a third as long to pay as it did to eat is ridiculous I'm afraid, and if you want the amazing food on offer I ask you to go forewarned of this. read more

I was a wee bit surprised to see the old Italian restaurant themed Singl-end close down, however, it was nice to see the same owners going for a completely new direction, focusing on breakfasty / bruncy / lunch options instead. If I was a business man, I'd say it was a rather smart move as the people of Glasgow love this type of food! I really am a bit late to this party but I made amends by making two visits in one week! On both occasions I was amazed at the friendliness of the staff and the excellent selection of home baking on show. The place had a great buzz and feel about it and I knew instantly that I was going to enjoy it. My first visit was for lunch. I had what tuned out to be an outstanding soup, a wonderfully spiced sweet potato and coconut soup and for £4 I thought this was great value. The bowl was huge and it came with bread of your choice on the side. Had I of known, this alone would have been enough to fill my rumbling tum, but me being my usual greedy self, also opted for the broadbean and pea smash open sandwich. This again was delicious but on this occasion a little less value for money at £7. Unfortunately, the soup should have been charged at £2.50 if eaten as a combo with a main, but unfortunately I ended up paying the full price for both. Not to worry as I was really happy with the soup and service. My second visit was an earlier one, for breakfast this time. I'm not a massive fan of eating out for breakfast or brunch, but I thought I'd give it a shot as I enjoyed the food so much at lunchtime. I ordered the omelette with bacon. It was really nicely presented in a frying pan and it was a decent size with big rashers of bacon in it. My main gripe was that at £8 it did not come with any bread. Being a carb lover, it meant I had to order a side of bread meaning my omelette had now hit a tenner! Afterwards we ordered a couple of cakes to share as a little sweet treat and while the toffee and apple cake was delicious, I found the millionaire shortbread to be insanely over sweet and I didn't like the chocolate topping (it wasn't really melted chocolate, more of an icing). Coffee on both my visits was decent, but noting to write home about. Breakfast cost me twenty smackers in the end with tips, so not cheap at all. Overall Singl-end is a great cafe serving up some impressive home cooking and baking. It has a truly unique atmosphere and has some proper quirky decoration. Some items are a little expensive, but if you chose wisely you can get a really excellent good value meal. read more

We were preparing to take the walking tour from gGlasgow School of Art and found this place on Yelp. It is down some steps and absolutely charming inside. We sat down for lunch, but had a brunch instead. Veggie breakfast, soup of the day with bread, the Betty (open faced sandwich special) and their version of eggs Benedict (which sit on sweet potato, spinach and red onions with a mashed avocado sauce). Everything was fresh, quick and flavorful. We had to rah out to get to our walk so we missed out on their beautiful desserts. After the tour, we decided to head back down, have a coffee and a treat. We had coffee & walnut cake, carrot ginger cake, chocolate binder cake and lemon poppyseed loaf. They were all so good we ended up sharing across the table. Great atmosphere, super service, delicious food - all at a fair price. 4 people brunch £23 and 4 people dessert with coffee £23. Excellent. read more
