What a cute wee place!! Having seen some comments on a local Facebook page and a sample of the…read moremenu, I headed out to Strathaven to have a gander. Just off the Main Street, to the back, you'll find a small, blink and you'll miss it, type building which houses this lovely little cafe/restaurant. Inside is almost like a converted house! A huge space with stairs leading to an upstairs balcony, surrounded by art by local artists. They sell bits & bobs - candles and the likes - as well as coffees, food and cakes. In the middle of the room is a black wood fire surrounded by cushions which I imagine is a lovely, cosy seating area when they have a full house. The menu is small but filled with dishes which include produce from local suppliers, such as Battlefield rolls and Puddledub bacon. As it was still early in the day I went for a delicious sounding open sandwich - Puddledub Shoulder Bacon with Avocado, Halloumi & Chilli jam. The sandwich arrived beautifully presented and laden with strips of bacon and beautifully crisp but gooey Halloumi. A total knife and fork job, the combination of all the flavours together on one forkful was truly delicious. The other half went for the Beef Chilli (which is braised with some local Strathaven Ale) and it was rich and delicious with a lovely rustic, homemade taste to it. Food you can tell has been lovingly prepared. There was no way I was leaving without something from there beautiful cake display. A selection of cakes were laid out on a side cabinet in baskets and trays and I had to deliberate for a good five minutes. I left with a Woods White Chocolate and a Raspberry brownie and a latte which I happily scoffed in the car on the way home. Overall, a lovely wee place and well worth the journey out to Strathaven for a visit.

A lovely 30 minute drive from my flat brought me here, through a lot of twisty-roads and beautiful country. On arrival, we got given the ugly duckling table of the place, ie not by the window. But after a group left managed to secure ourselves a few of the rolling hills and torrential rain. The menu is great, with a huge variety and GF/veggie options. I had the seafood platter which was huge, as in I struggled to finish it. (Obviously did). No half-portions here, 5 or 6 prawns, a huge helping of salmon, same with the mackerel pate and some incredible oatcakes with salad and dressing. The Dear Green coffee was bitter and black and just how I like it. My heart did want the Salted Caramel Cake with popcorn but it looked slightly too sickly. I opted for a classic brownie and was not disappointed. My friend's meringue with fruit compote and cream was mammoth! Well worth a drive, you can pre-book tables which I would definitely advise. Thanks to Imogen, our waitress who was just lovely despite how busy it was. Can't wait to try the Port Glasgow branch

Having been to their Quarriers Village location and thoroughly enjoyed it, I was quite happy to get…read morethe opportunity to sample the sisters' newest cafe on a cold, but sunny afternoon. This location is a little easier to get to as it's situated in Killearn town hall. Arriving at just before 2, the immediately obvious difference between the 2 locations was that this is much busier than Quarriers. The place was mainly occupied by the lunching ladies of sub-suburbia, save for the odd lunching worker/working luncher. Due to the lunchtime rush the staff seemed to be a wee bit stretched, (the poor folk next to me had to ask for a latte a couple of times before the server came back to say she'd forgotten what they'd asked for), but thankfully I had no problems with the service. I had the tasting platter at the Quarriers location, so of course I ordered it again (after all it was tasty!). When it came out it looked the same, but somehow it was lacking some of its previous magic. Of course I couldn't leave without trying one of their amazing looking cakes from the counter, I went with the flourless tangerine cake (yes it is GF), which was fragrant and not too dry, it had a texture not totally dissimilar to polenta cake. Now it maybe second season syndrome or it could just be a matter of over familiarity, but there does seem to be something missing from Quarriers in this location. I don't know whether it was down to the time of day (I visited Quarriers towards the quieter end of lunch), the fact that this is a somewhat new cafe or down to the glass & white wall environs, as I said it just wasn't the same.. Don't let that put you off trying the place out though, it's still a good cafe, serving good food & the view out across the hills is really beautiful (especially with all the snow). If I taste not time were the issue I'd choose Quarriers Village over Killearn, but otherwise you'll probably choose Killearn for its convenience & almost as good food.
