Breakfast in Glasgow


Ked

Recommended Posts

If you want a breakfast at Counting House in George Square you would be wise to get there for about 9am!  Once the train loads start filling the bar the food orders get a bit chaotic.

Counting house is witherspoon I think?

So wouldn't go there anyway.

Not drinking too early either as you just end up a mess.

Cote in the city centre is nice. It’s posher than a spoons but they do lovely breakfasts. 
 

There’s the merchant pub too in the city centre. Also two spoons near central, Crystal Palace and one called John something I think. 
 

If you’re wanting to be close to Hampden, there’s plenty of places in Shawlands and Battlefield.

Usually go there when in Glasgow. 

Couldn't believe when we went in before the 2019 final managed to get a table and a meal no problem. 

Good mix of fans as many Jambos as Celtic. 

Wouldn't have went near the place if Sevco had won the cup the other night. The centre of Glasgow on Saturday and George Sq in particular would have been taken over by celebrating Huns. 

Might be OK tomorrow now fingers 🤞

Battlefield is at the Rangers end. 

Not a good idea.

Last couple of times we were at the Crystal Palace they weren't selling drink until 11am...just incase anyone is going there (unless things have changed).

Slight hijack so apologies... Heading to Tynecastle for the hospitality package. Arrive Haymarket around 9 ? Any recommendations for a bacon roll and possibly a beer (not essential but preferred). Pretty sure I managed this one season at the Clock Cafe on Dalry Rd prior to an early KO a couple years back.

Shawlands might be quiet enough to not be a huntrap, but it is at the wrong end of the stadium for us tomorrow so you'd have to battle through them to get to Hampden.

I've actually been to Cote before I've realised after visiting their website.

The breakfast menu looks good.

The meal before was lovely.

Nice one

Stratties opens at 6:00 am on a Saturday. Perfect for a beer and grab a roll from Greigs across the road.

Just don't copy what the locals do by raking in the buckets for something to eat.

Was in Rome a few years back and could not believe the love for Super over there. Went to supermarkets and had their own branded fridges.

Yup, all the cool kids in the Piazza Bellini in Naples were drinking it! I was straight on the big bottles of Peroni mind, at a Euro less. You crack on with your Tennents Super! :lol:

 

e: seen you've followed up. 👍
