Really good breakfast.

We've been here a few times now, as we always try and visit when we're in Glasgow. This time I had pancakes with vg bacon, square sausage and vegan egg. Really enjoyed it, and it kept me full all day. Nice to be able to get vg pancakes, my partner had the bagel and that was good too. Plenty of options, and a nice hot drink selection.

Pros: Plenty of choice, Tasty

Best Vegan Square Sausage!

Rose & Grant's has been my favourite brunch spots for a number of years now. I think they do the best vegan square sausage! The vegan ultimate bagel or muffin is my go-to.

They always have a great vegan cake selection which they switch up regularly. The staff are friendly and it's dog friendly. You can also buy packs of their square sausages to take home!

Some have mentioned that service is slow which I can understand at times. But the staff are all friendly that I would just go up to the counter and ask if I need anything in particular.

Although it's not fully vegan, it's still one of my favourite cafes. It's also a great place to go to if you're looking for a cafe to go to with non-vegan friends.

Pros: Vegan square sausage, Great selection of cakes, Dog friendly

Gone downhill

I used to go all the time and absolutely loved it but sadly it's gone downhill. It's recently come under new owners and initially when things seemed a little chaotic I put it down to teething issues and kept coming back but it's been months now and it's consistently disappointing.

There's still a good range of vegan options and most of their cakes are vegan. However they've changed their vegan scrambled egg and it's actively really unpleasant. The cakes are now made in house which I was pleased about initially but they're not all vegan anymore, not brilliant cakes and not very good value for money. Every time I visit these days service is really slow, staff seem unhappy and the space just seems chaotic and disorganised. Today for example the cafe wasn't especially busy but I waited nearly 20 minutes for a cup of tea and a slice of cake, meanwhile staff chatting, cleaning, restocking etc. When I got my cake it was lemon drizzle but didn't really taste of lemon despite having lemon pips in it. The last time I went for food I'd nearly finished my meal by the time the person I was with even received theirs. Things just seem to constantly be slow or gone wrong. It's such a shame because the food is mostly still good and I really want to like it as much as I used to but I'm not sure I'll be back

Nice breakfast spot

Popular breakfast spot, almost everything on the menu can be made vegan. Dog-friendly, nice music and relaxed vibe. Quick service. I had the vegan breakfast muffin and it was tasty, I even liked their controversial vegan "egg", the whole thing was just too salty (I think it was mainly the square sausage that had too much salt). I will definitely visit again for the French toast!

Pros: Many vegan options, Cosy interior

Great Cafe with Vegan Options

I really enjoyed the full vegan breakfast, and they had a large selection of vegan cakes. My friend said their meat options were the best if you need to accommodate non-vegans.

Pros: Low sodium full breakfast , Large cake selection

Atmosphere and food okay, coffee bad

The staff were accommodating of people in our party who had allergies, and there was an okay range of vegan food on the menu. However, the food itself was pretty average (the the vegan "egg" I had was unappetising) and the coffee was bad. Value for money is okay.

Mixed bag

I’ve been here loads over the years but this review is based on how it is under the new ownership now they’ve been running it a few months.

The space has been done up so is nicer than it used to be but still lacks anything soft to help with the acoustics so it can feel loud. They now bake their own cakes which I love because it means it’s not stuff you can get elsewhere but the cakes are no longer all vegan so there’s less choice.

The menu is still much the same but the vegan scramble has now changed and it’s tasteless mush which means a lot of the menu isn’t as good as it used to be because it’s heavily featured in the vegan options. The food service has got really slow, I’m commenting based upon multiple visits. I don’t go in for takeaway morning rolls anymore because it's so slow.

I still have a lot of love for this place, its so vegan friendly and the staff are all
lovely. But I see it more as a tea and cake place now than breakfast.

Vegans well catered for

Was pleasantly surprised as I stumbled upon this looking for a quick (but hot!)breakfast when my first vegan ootion was closed. I especially liked the well spaced tables and relaxed feel oh and speed the food came!

Very friendly staff.

Cute café

Lovely place, really friendly staff. Plenty of food options, well worth a visit. My friend had the vegan french toast which she said was very nice, I had scrambled "egg", toast and vacon. I personally wasn't a big fan of the "egg" as I enjoy scrambled tofu more but that's just personal opinion, would visit again!

Easy spot in the city

Been here twice and both times I was not disappointed - had an excellent vegan empire biscuit last time and a vegan ploughman's. Not the cheapest but for all the options it's worth it!

Update July 2023: still just as good, breakfast muffin to die for!

Update March 2024: Amazing breakfast roll and toastie and possibly the best coffee in glasgow!

Vegan Lorne sausage and vegan Haggis

Can’t say no to a Glasgow roll with square sausage potato scone and a slice of haggis. The sausage was good but the haggis was a bit crumbly my first visit
Second visit much better haggis and Scotch pie was amazing 😻

Updated from previous review on 2019-06-08

Pros: Vegan Lorne! , Easy to find with friendly staff, Plenty of vegan options

Lovely sausage roll

Had the vegan special breakfast roll which had garlic mushrooms on and Sriracha Mayo. This place was perfect because it had lots of vegan options and non vegan options so both parties can enjoy if you’re coming with a meat eater

Muy bueno y variado

Fuimos a desayunar allí el 21/10/22.
Nos gustó mucho porque tenían varias opciones ducles y saladas y también estaba bien de precio.
Pedimos un vegan roll (salchicha vegana, champiñones y mayonesa de sriracha), una masa de hojaldre con espinacas, tomate y queso vegano y un te verde con jazmin.
Es un sitio acogedor y sin duda repetiríamos

Pros: Variedad

Cons: Algunas opciones no estan disponibles siempre

Their vegan breakfast saved my life

Have you ever been hungover beyond comprehension? Well, have I got the curer for you!

Their vegan breakfast is honestly everything I’ve ever needed in life. They give you the option of a huge beast of a breakfast or a slightly smaller one with an included hot drink. They do other things, too, including some vegan cakes which are on display at the front.

The staff are friendly and attentive. Last time I was in, one of the kitchen staff was doing floor work due to staff shortages, I would not have been able to tell she’d had no floor experience, she was a natural!

Pros: Plenty of vegan options, Hangover curing powers, Amazing service

Cons: Sometimes is busy

Fantastic breakfast place

We’ve come here almost every day during our stay in Glasgow to try out all the vegan options that intrigued us right from the start. And all of them were delicious! Heavily recommended for having vegan breakfast or brunch.

Pros: A lot of different vegan options, Friendly staff, fast service
