    Really cool and unique spot in Glasgow. This was part of my regular rotation while at University…read more They have an insanely wide assortment of teas, and their sandwiches are delicious. The inside is very homey, as if sitting in Bilbo Baggin's crib in the shire! They also have sheesha which can be smoked outside! Really laid back and amazing ambiance. 5 stars.

    Tea anyone? This is thee place for tea, some tea and more tea. I ended up here as part of the UYE…read moreWest End Wander organised by the lovely Sara T. It was our first stop so, what's best that getting a good cuppa in before our walk?! I'd been here before many years ago with Angela B but had the memory of we didn't like it. The place is very very hidden in the West End, you've got to know or plan how to get to it as it's down one of the many Glasgow's West End's hidden lanes. When I arrived it was puzzling me why didn't we like it, then my man reminded me they do the shisha pipe and they used to be able to smoke it indoors before the smoking ban. Ahhhhh!!!!! Now I remember. They fortunately now take the shisha outside in their wee tea garden. As it is a very small venue, it makes me think of a student's living room, it's that small. I think Angela and I being non smokers it was too smoky for us while trying to enjoy our tea and I hadn't really enjoyed my choice the last time either. This time though was much better. Yay!!!! With guidance from Sara I choose the Turkish Apple tea which was absolutely delicious. I would definitely have again. Slurp! I still find it too cosy, I know that sounds weird but maybe because it's very cluttered with stuff, lots of trinkets and just stuff. There's also lots of soft furnishings so not short of cushions and blankets but for some reason I'm not the biggest fan. Maybe it's just me and I just find it too claustrophobic, especially if it gets very busy. I still say it's somewhere worth popping into if your out visiting the West End for the experience.

    A friend recommended this place for brunch and I'm so glad we went. It's been a while since I've…read morebeen into Glasgow due to bad health and this was the perfect place to go! Thanks to it being Sunday, street parking outside was free which is an added bonus. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I asked for my usual Chai but unfortunately they don't have it...yet! But I was advised to try the London Fog. Earl grey tea with honey and foamy milk, mmmm, very tasty! My friend got jealous so ordered one too. For food I had stacked pancakes and bacon. The only way these could have been better is by having streaky bacon rather than British bacon, but still tasty. I love that they hit brought the jug of maple syrup to the table, usually you have to beg borrow and steal at places to get more! Ben got a side of macaroni cheese because, why not. And he enjoyed it thoroughly, just the right amount of creaminess to the cheese. Very reasonably priced, great food, lovely staff. It's such a quaint little place, try it if you haven't already, you won't be disappointed!

    I have to update my review based on my most recent visit (last night) and remove a star to bring it…read moredown to 3 stars. Service was still really good, but their pulled pork is now a massive disappointment. Dry, tasteless mush. Luckily I went for the ribs and they were still excellent. Worth noting that BYOB price for a beer has gone up 20p to 70p per beer too.
