Brunch in Glasgow: Pot Luck

Pot Luck. It seems like the hottest brunch spot in the South side right now, and has been seriously filling up my Instagram feed. I made my first visit at the end of July (which was already overdue, to be honest, but there’s only so many hours in the week to eat all of the food). A short stroll from my favourite spots South side spots – Southside Roasters and Tapa – Pot Luck sits on Nithsdale Road. I don’t know much about the background of the company but I believe they opened around May this year. My friend and I stopped by around 2.30pm or something on a Saturday afternoon, and the place was almost full. But there just happened to be a table for two free – winner.

Wilson Street Pantry has had some honorable mentions on the blog before. Today they’re getting their own post after I had a lovely breakfast there a few weeks ago. I’ve dropped in for a takeaway coffee a dozen times, and popped in for lunch prior, too. But this was my first time sampling their breakfast menu.

Five Places for Coffee in Glasgow

If you’re in need of a good quality caffeine jolt in Glasgow city centre, look no further. The Glasgow coffee scene is pretty strong, and these are five of my favourite places to hit up for a coffee in Glasgow.

Laboratorio Espresso

My absolute number one. Whenever anyone asks for a coffee recommendation in Glasgow, Laboratorio Espresso is my first suggestion. Laboratorio Espresso is a small Italian-inspired coffee shop located on West Regent Street, just behind Buchanan Street. They serve a curated selection of coffees and snacks (and teas, if your company is that way inclined), in a beautifully designed, minimalist environment. If it’s a nice day you can take a seat outside. You’ll find a small selection of pastries, cakes and sandwiches if you’re peckish. I would recommend a lemon cannoli to pair with your coffee of choice; I promise you won’t regret it.

The other day someone asked me my recommendations for breakfast in Glasgow and I had a momentary brain block. I realised I don’t often go out for breakfast if I’m at home. In a bid to experience more of my local breakfast offerings I visited Chaakoo Bombay Cafe last weekend. Chaakoo opened a few months ago and is the sister restaurant to Topolabamba, which I’m a big fan of. Their day/dinner menu looks great and is similar to the small plates idea of Topolabamba/TukTuk.

My trip to Cafe Strange Brew was long overdue.  But I am a city centre girl, so hopefully the distance makes it a little more forgivable. I can’t quite remember where I heard about the Cafe, but it was fresh in my mind after their collaboration with El Perro Negro in July. They’re always cropping up on Glasgow blogs so I assume I read about it somewhere else too…
