“I absolutely love the little cafe ! The staff are great, the food is fantastic and will always be my first go to when heading out for food.”

“Best burger van about, burgers are the real deal, no frozen slabs to be seen! Proper butcher meat. Great rolls. A brilliant lunch menu! Well worth a visit.”

“Second time visiting this wee hidden gem. Would say it’s more a fine dining restaurant than a cafe. The atmosphere is so welcoming you feel like you’re at your friends for dinner. So warm and friendly. The food is just beautiful. The roast was our choice of the day and was fresh and plentiful and made my daughter do a wee happy dance :).”

“Absolutely lovely customer service! Served with some chitchat and a smile! And the food!!! The food was wonderful! Made with love and care, I totally recommend this place for lunches, breakfasts. I had a half chicken peri peri and half chicken tikka wrap with salad and cheese, absolutely delightful. Chicken is halal which is a wonderful bonus. Hope you guys give this place a try. 5/5 :)))”

“Amazing Mexican food. Everything we've tried has been very tasty and came in generous portions. We especially loved the tacos. Great service too by friendly and passionate staff. We recommend for both sit in and take away.”

“Excellent neighbourhood restaurant. Tasting menu all very good - especially the tomato and watermelon dish and the roe deer. Relaxed and friendly service. Recommended.”

“Amazing place!!. It was truly a pleasant surprise to go to this restaurant and find authentic Italian food . Everything we tried was amazing, the owner and the staff in general were great, everybody make you feel welcome and the food is the best we have tried in Glasgow, we will definitely come back.”

“An altogether excellent experience. Staff provided attentive, knowledgeable and polite service. Food was grand. Highly recommended.”

“The Gannet showing yet again why it's the best. Impeccable food, unbeatable hospitality and beautiful and well thought-out surroundings. Everything from the snacks to the souffle and the soundtrack in between was faultless. Kevin's hospitality and knack of making everyone feel at ease and welcome is second to none, Amy's attention to detail and charm is amazing. Of course Peter and his team in the kitchen as always are plating up some of the best food in Scotland with the highest quality of produce whilst paying attention to the seasons and still offering affordability. For me it is Glasgow in a restaurant.”

“Great little cafe , staff are friendly and helpful. Food was very good.”

“Amazing food and lovely staff! Love visiting here everything I visit Scotland ❤”

“I wish I could give this place 10 stars instead of just five! The food was outstanding, and I absolutely fell in love with their pancakes—they’re simply divine. I spent a leisurely two hours there, savoring the delicious food and reading a book. While the coffee wasn't quite to my taste, everything else was fantastic—the food, the ambiance, and the service were all top-notch. Highly recommended!”

“Absolutely fantastic food, staff are lovely and helpful, highly recommend”

“Absolutely fantastic The mussels & rosemary focacchi were fabulous. The lobster ravioli was to die for... Service was brill and waiting staff lovely. Can't wait to go back but may need to book in advance because it's a great restaurant.”

“I visited the restaurant on Saturday afternoon with my family, and as the only vegan in the group, my options were initially very limited. However, when I mentioned this to our server, Courtney, she went above and beyond. She spoke with the chef and came back with several options they could prepare specially for me, which I thought was incredibly kind. The chef made a delicious arrabbiata along with garlic bread made with olive oil instead of butter - simple but delicious. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, and the service was brilliant. As a vegan, I don’t always expect restaurants to accommodate me, so I was delighted by how thoughtful they were in offering alternatives. I would highly recommend this restaurant for both the food and the wonderful service.”

“A wonderful experience! We opted for the 10 course summer menu with wines and were so pleased we did! A very warm welcome and with our 4.45pm slot the place was virtually empty on arrival so we were able to choose a lovely spot to sit before being guided through the menu by our friendly, knowledgeable server who was wonderful throughout and keen to chat with us about each course and wine and seemed genuinely interesting in our thoughts throughout. We opted for some delicious apperitifs as well. The menu itself was fantastic, I particularly enjoyed the melon gazpacho to start... a great start to a summer menu (and on such a hot day). I also really enjoyed the Mussels and Fregola dish. My husband loved the pork dish. We were both pleased to be proved completely wrong about what we thought our "top picks" would be. Wines were paired well and we enjoyed all of them; I was very surprised again by what I thought my favourite wine would be Vs what it actually was. I noticed the goats cheese dish was prepared/served very differently to what I've seen on their own social media but I can only imagine this is part of the development of these dishes/menus and it was absolutely stunning so not a complaint by any means! We got married on the first so travelled up to Scotland to visit some family for a "mini moon" and wanted to treat ourselves to a memorable evening out. This absolutely delivered and we felt was great value for money. If I was to find any minor criticism it would be that the music at points really didn't seem fitting for the setting... a wild playlist that rapidly fluctuated between "bangers" to more chilled music. That being said we actually found it quite funny but may not suit all diners!”

“Fabulous experience sampling The Mad Hatter's Tea Party menu. When each course is served it's expertly explained by serving staff and accompanied by a little theatre. Absolutely delicious food served in beautifully decorated surroundings. I have read some reviews indicating that the tables are extremely close together. This is true but we didn't find it overly intrusive. Overall a fantastic experience.”

“Superb service..very friendly and welcoming. Food piping hot and tasty. Good value.”

“Went here with pals we had a varied menu, all of it was absolutely fabulous and the portions were massive, service was so friendly and warm. Food was quick . Clean attractive place ! Amazing selection of vegetarian options!”

“Italian restaurant in Motherwell. Lovely setting. Busy but seats spread out. Attentive servers, fabulous food, very big portions. Nice atmosphere. I had the soup of the day (Chicken), spaghetti bolognese (partner had the steak) and vanilla fudge sundae (my partner had the sticky toffee pudding) 9/10 look forward to coming back soon.”

“Best eggy bread in Muirhead Telling yes the now Order French toast crispy bacon and scrambled egg Obviously salt and pepper”

“Place is absolutely immaculate.Breakfast rolls were amazing. Will be back for Lunch”

“We stumbled with The Hungry Gannet while my kids were having swimming lesson. What a fantastic place, so polite, smiling and helpful team members. The owner's hospitality is above and beyond. We have Chargrilled chicken with Chips and Grilled veg baguette, with cappuccino and tea. Food is absolutely die for, so fresh. First time I have seen so good place where difficult to fund any fault. Their selection of icecream we couldn't enjoy but worth a try in summer time. Keep rocking team The Hungry Gannet, you deserve all the awards should you wish to enter. My all votes to you.”

“The staff went above and beyond, assisted me with decorations and had a vegan diet with no coriander and a group of 13 adults, they did amazing, the food was amazing, drinks. I would highly recommend and we celebrated my mother's 80th birthday in still at Jimbu, thank-you to all the staff that made this happen. Tracey”

“Haven't sat in the restaurant and have only had takeaway from here, but the food I have had has been phenomenal every single time. The garlic chilli chicken is perfection.”
