A Cup Above, Montrose, Scotland in Angus

We really liked this wee cafe, it was full of locals, which is a good sign. Hubby had gluten free lentil soup, that he said was great. I had a very nice baked potato. The coffee was very good. Staff were really nice and welcoming. Loved the knitted cakes in the window.

I come here regularly for lunch with my friends, and what an amazing experience it is! There's a great atmosphere!! We would thoroughly recommend it! The staff are brilliant, attentive, and caring, and fun to chat to! The food is always spot on, and there's a great variety of food on the menu, with 'specials' available daily! Delicious! Coffees and teas are super too, and you can buy some yummy cakes and biscuits to take home with you, although you certainly won't feel hungry!

We arrived at 2pm and the owner, Cheryl said that there was no lunches being served but we could have soup or a filled roll. We chose a roll and Lorne and a roll and sausage and the quality of the sausage in both was appalling. Both of us left them, they were so bad. Such a shame because the lady is very friendly and was so kind to a customer with additional support needs. She needs to buy better quality meat, I think.

Being served out of date food and will not go back , the food was minus 0 and was going to complain but there was another customer complaining about there order so I just didn’t bother but I will avoid this unorganised shame of a place

Just popped in for a pick me up. Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, good value, delicious rolls and coffee. Faultless!

I was in Montrose again a few days ago and I just had to stop in for some early lunch. Like me last visit, I found myself enjoying a fine cup of tea. I also had a filled roll. Ketchup was on hand, as usual, with all the regular condiments. Excellent choices of puddings were offered along with a wide variety of biscuits and cakes. The staff were polite and attentive. Other customers certainly seemed to be enjoying their food too. A couple also had their dog with them and the owner made the 'special guest' welcome, having canine treats on hand! Splendid food was had, a nice drink and at a very respectable price. Totally enjoyed this visit again, and already looking forward to when I could next visit...

Absolutely fantastic service great soup food and cakes are excellent staff are lovely they always make sure your ok and always have time to chat

We visited A Cup Above twice this week. We found the staff to be welcoming even though we had our dog with us. We had very nice cakes, scones and coffee and Juno had a big bowl of water and a biscuit. The cafe was clean and there was a good choice of home baked goods. Plant milk was also available which was a plus. We would definitely return.

We struggled to find any coffee shop in Montrose. Eventually we had to go in here and noted that it was very quiet. The coffee cups were dirty and the coffee tasted awful. Only accept cash too.

Decided to give this coffee shop a second chance as found the owner to have a terrible attitude the first time we visited. Figured she may just have been having a bad day…WRONG! Went in today to be barked at that it was only coffee & cake available, we only wanted a coffee. Directed to a specific table even though there was only one family in the cafe at the time. Directly outside the toilet so when the the lady with a child wanted in or out I had to move each time to allow her. Coffe was weak and just like a cup of hot milk. Couldn’t even finish it. Another family came in and were told which table to sit at, when they inadvertently got the wrong table they were told to move to the other one in an abrupt and direct manner. Strict cash only policy. Not a relaxing, pleasant experience, definitely a strange vibe. Won’t be back. Felt sorry for the lady who served us who tried hard to be smiley and pleasant. She was the only positive of the whole experience.

Very friendly and accommodating staff, cute wee cafe, soup was delicious! Home baking looked lovely but we were too full! Lovely wee place for a spot of lunch.

I went in to buy a mug of soup to take away. I asked politely to use the toilet and was told no, it is for sit in customers only. I am (very obviously) 7 months pregnant and asked if they could make an exception seeing as I had paid for soup. The server checked with the owner and I was told no. When she passed me I asked her directly, and she aggressively said no again and that there is a sign on the door stating the "rule". I hadn't seen the sign on the way in but noticed it on the way out. Very rude and inconsiderate, it doesn't hurt to be kind to someone. Won't be going back.

Went for lunch today, have been there 5 or 6 times. Firstly their cakes are amazing! Staff and owner are always friendly and welcoming. Food is always hot and freshly made. Had soup, chicken/bacon burger and a pinini & salad. All was amazing and tasted great. Well definitely be back. Look forward to seeing you again, soon.

This place is really cute and quaint. We had a delicious lunch, that was really good value. The soup was so yummy, and the scones were top tier. Staff were lovely too. Would definitely recommend for a light lunch, or a wee coffee and cake.

If I had read the recent reviews I probably would have given this tearoom a miss so glad I didnt. Asked to.use sanitiser when we entered no bad thing covid figures rising again table and chairs had also been cleaned so felt safe. Ordered the lentil soup which was lovely then we shared a fruit scone which was very tasty great value and the staff on duty were both very friendly so no complaints and would call again if back in Montrose

I have visited here frequently over the last 4 years with my little girl and mother-in-law. The service has always been friendly and thorough. This was one of the first places I felt safe taking my young family when we started going out again during the pandemic. The venue is clean and the staff are efficient making sure visitors sanitise their hands and allocating people tables ensuring social distancing guidelines are adhered to. The staff have always been lovely towards my daughter, she is nearly 5 so they have seen her grow over the years. My newborn son also has numerous food intolerances and allergies which while I was breastfeeding, the chef made sure that I had options I could choose from the menu. Which on another point - I felt safe and secure feeding my son here. I'm looking forward to our next visit.

Poor customer service extremely unpleasant atmosphere food is poor quality to say the least won't be going back ....

Rude, abrupt and unfriendly service leading to a very poor experience at this cafe. The food was average at best but as others have described, the atmosphere is less than conducive to a relaxing and welcoming coffee break.

Owner has her own interpretation of covid rules that are way above what any other hospitality outlets are doing, which in itself is not an issue but the way she tells you about them is like a teacher telling off a student from the minute...

Welcoming coffee shop, with plenty cakes to choose from. Staff were very friendly and glad we went in for a refreshment.

Lovely friendly staff... food is amazing well presented .... safe & very clean coffee shop... I would highly recommend 😃

What a little gem of a cafe. Right from the start we were made to feel welcome as were our dogs, the staff were so lovely. I had the Cajun chicken burger, which was succulent and tasty and my sister had a panini that she...

Visit this tea room every time I'm in the area. I was there today and had the stovies. Lovely I even took a portion back with me along with 2 apple and cinnamon scones. Delicious and even better dog friendly

This lovely little cafe is really good value for money. Simple food choices but delicious. Side salad very tasty, not just a bit of salad thrown on the side.

Popped in for a morning coffee here. Staff were very friendly. So we went back for lunch. We had the ‘soup & sandwich’ deal. The homemade soup was delicious and the sandwiches were well filled and very tasty. Good value too. Staff really friendly and...

As the owner I was there on this day . My duty manager asked you to put your buggy against the pillar , you chose to sit at table 1 right by the counter . You asked to have a kids meal , which are only for children , so you ordered a small soup and a can of coke , your gran ordered a panini and a tea . I believe the tea was being made as I was bringing the soup through . The panini had already been given to your gran . You took a tantrum when my duty manager would not give you a can of coke to your table . The panini had 2 pieces of bacon in it as every portion is the same , I am the cook so I know what was in it . You brought your buggy over to your table blocking the passage to the counter and endangering your child . My duty manager approached you and asked if you could move the buggy or maybe move to a more suitable table , this was instructed by myself . You both got up very aggressively and started raising your voices and started to leave , I was trying to explain about the buggy situation as you had it where we have hot drinks and food going back and forward . I offered you your meals to take away , you refused . Your gran then wanted to take hers away , which I apologised for the misunderstanding as you said you didn't want anything . Myself and staff try and make everyone that comes into the coffee shop as comfortable as possible , but when customers are rude and can't follow our safety rules , we will not tolerate this . We have health and safety rules for a reason .

Everything is freshly prepared , for the money it's pretty decent. Not fine dining, it's a cafe and as such it serves its purpose fine.

I am replying to the mmc333 review in January . I as The owner of the business am sorry you feel this way . I asked you to move your buggy to a place where it was not blocking other tables . I was not in the premises for most of your visit . The child that was in your company was 2 year old and running around touching things , screaming and opening the coffee shop door into a very busy road . You ordered more food and drinks and refused to pay for them . Your behaviour and your friends behaviour were all caught in cctv . I was not shouting and being abusive , you were asked to leave , which you refused . We had a busy coffee shop that day and everyone thought your behaviour was terrible and that myself and staff dealt with the matter appropriately .

The owner is rude and abusive. I will never go there again. From the moment we walked in we sensed a terrible atmosphere. Through out our whole visit the owner was rude to us, then once we had enough of her service we decided to leave. While we were trying to pay our bill she was shouting at us to get out and trying to justify her behaviour towards us. We could not believe what was happening and that an owner of a business would treat her own paying customers like this. The food and coffee was substandard also. Avoid!!!!

Looking for a cup of coffee and maybe a slice of cake, we poked a head arouund their door to ask if our greyhound was allowed ibn. She was welcomed by all of the staff who came over to say hello to her. The lattes were lovely and hot and the cake selection was very good. I had a job deciding eventually on the carrot cake. This too was lovely. Well done all of you. You restored my faith in the scottish welcome that we thought lost in other cafes. I would recommend anyone to visit these lovely ladies.

Quite a spacious cafe and others from our cruise ship joined us. Good cuppchinos and the wash room was clean and tidy.

Been here twice , nice breakfast all fresh didn't wait long at all nice friendly service would recommend

While in Montrose visiting, came upon this little coffee shop. We had the lunch special of soup and sandwich and tea/coffee. Lovely home made soup and delicious choice of sandwiches. Homemade cakes/ scones are excellent too. Great value for money.

We called in for lunch and were impressed. The sandwiches were good, the service was pleasant and it was a fair price. The staff were good at cleaning and tidying, keeping the place neat and there was a good turnover of people and a nice ambience.

Away used to use this cafe for snacks with friends, I find the rolls not as good quality as the previous manager. The cafe his had a good facelift.

A pleasant cup of tea and scone with jam. One of the assistants talked very loudly to a customer the whole time we were there.

Great variety of tasty food. Excellent value. Soup, sandwich/ toastie & hot or cold drink for under £6! Cheery and friendly staff who always make you feel welcome. We are regular customers who absolutely love this place. 👍😊

Llamado aquí la semana pasada mientras espera un autobús. Tenía dos rollos de tocino, y el encantador café era excelente también. La señorita esperando en las mesas era muy agradable y tenía una sonrisa encantadora. Otra pareja que parecía tener los desayunos eran deliciosos.

Almorcé hoy aquí y me quedé muy impresionado. Mesas grandes, buen servicio y excelente comida. Pedimos una ensalada con queso panini y jamón ensalada de lado. Zumo de naranja y un chocolate caliente para bebidas. La comida era muy buena y muy bien presentada, especialmente el jamón ensalada que era fantástico y una gran calidad a sólo £4.10. Toda la factura era de £10.30. Sin duda volveremos y lo recomendaría sumamente este lugar.

La comida es de buena calidad y buen servicio. He visitado este café muchas veces y recomiendo que darle una oportunidad. Comida habitual que cabe esperar en un café, pero bien presentado y sabroso. Todo el personal es muy servicial. El café siempre está lleno, que es testimonio de la calidad con un montón de clientes habituales volver en muchos casos a diario

was such a lovely place staff were friendly and the soup and hot chocolate were lovely just a bit pricey when ur young and on a budget would love to pop in again at some point.

Without fail every time I have visited the service and food have been fantastic! The staff and atmosphere is very friendly! The price and food are good also. My favourite cafe in montrose will be back for sure!

Visit this place a lot. Food good love there lemon drizzle cake. Staff nice and helpful there coffee is not bad ether

Mi hija y yo vinimos aquí para el desayuno. Tuve un bollo de tocino, que era principalmente grasas y creo que fue frito. Mi hija tenía un "salchicha roll" que servían como lo que creo que pueden haber sido un Lorne ya que era plana. Mi hija no sólo como Lorne y salchichas carecerán en el menú. Ambos nos acabamos yéndonos. Cuando nos fuimos podía oler el café en nuestra ropa y secador durante todo el día. Absolutamente nada peor! Sin duda no volveré principalmente porque de eso. Conseguir un mejor ventilador y pueden estar tentados a probar los pasteles que realmente parece bien.

Fabulous food but service was a little bit of a let down. Owner had son serving which he clearly was not happy with and they began an argument in the middle of the cafe.

Me pasó aquí por primera vez y estaba bien impresionados ... Me gusta un buen desayuno caliente y no estaba seguro de lo que podía recibir. ... La espera valió la pena esperar ... Fue recién hecho y Black pudding era deliciosa ... La camarera era muy buena en su trabajo y muy agradable ... Volveré para otro ...

This is the second time we have visited here and would definitely recommend it, excellent home baking.I had a bacon roll and my wife the egg roll and it was very tasty with good quality ingredients, We then had to have a bit of cake each as it all looked so appetising.Next time we are in Montrose we will definitely be stopping here.

This is one of the top places locally for home baking, and is so good I usually buy some to take home for others.

Plain decor but staff very friendly and efficient. Good variety of food and beverages on offer and prices very reasonable. French toast and black pudding to be recommended as are the pancakes with bacon and maple syrup. Would definitely pay a return visit.

Lovely staff and excellent food. We live in montrose and this is where we head for a cuppa or some lunch. Would highly recommend

Whilst on a shopping trip on Thursday in Montrose with my sister, we decided to visit this café for a snack at lunch time. I settled for a roll with sausage and my sister had a roll with black pudding and egg. We both also had mugs of tea. The service was excellent and the food very good. Also very reasonable prices. Will definitely visit this café again.

My parents live near Montrose, and as I was visiting, they decided to take me into town for lunch. They took me here as they had been before, and claimed that you got the best bacon roll here. On arrival (approx 2pm on a Turesday), there were only 2 tables occupied. Whilst all the other tables were clear of cups, plates, etc ... there was still traces of previous occupants ,,,, moisture from cups, crumbs from food, etc. We chose a table, and I wiped the crumbs from it with a tissue.We ordered a bacon roll, scrambled egg on toast and an omlette. We also ordered 2 teas and a coffee. Despite a previous response to a review, we were not asked if we wanted our drinks now or with our food. The drinks were delivered promptly. However, we had to wait around 10/15 minutes for our food. By this time the drinks were more or less finnished. Dad demolished the bacon roll in double quick time, so assume it was indeed the best bacon roll in town. The scrambled egg was fine, although the quantity of egg could have been slightly more for the 2 slices of toast served with it. The omlette was fine, served with salad and toast.After this, we decided to order something for desert. After a few minutes we manages to get the attention of a waitress. She said she would come back to take our order, went and got a cloth and started wiping down tables. Five minutes later she came back and took our order. Strawberry tart and a sundae. Tart was promptly delivered, although a 5 minute wait for the sundae. Quality of deserts were excellent. As the title of this review says - the food was pretty good, and certainly excellent value for what you get. It was unfortunate that the service was so slow. There appeared to be one girl working the 'floor' and she took orders and cleared tables. She appears to be in need of supervision for a couple of weeks to bring her up to speed. Having worked in service, I know that one of the most simple things (never enter or leave a kitchen with your hands empty) was not being followed.It is a fabulous little place, and whoever owns it has a great business idea. However, they perhaps need to take a step back and look at the nitty gritty. Customer service, or at least service with a smile should be instilled in staff. Whilst I would go back next time I am in Montrose, I could understand why others would perhaps go elsewhere.

I visit this cafe several times a week. Staff and owners are wonderful, always make me feel welcome, like an old friend. The food is all freshly cooked and the sweets are yummylicious! I cannot fault this place at all and always look forward to my next visit. When people ask me which cafe to go to in Montrose, this is the place I direct them to.

We have eaten at this delightful cafe before and were there again today. My husband had the breakfast and told the lady, Debbie, that it was the 'best breakfast in the North East' Praise indeed as he does tend to try breakfasts in different places that we go. I had the chicken and pepper omelette, which came with a side salad and toast and was really tasty and filling. My husband then had a white coffee and Victoria sponge and I had a green tea & lemon, I wasn't going to have cake, but the cakes are so fresh and look so good that I couldn't resist and I ended up having the Victoria sponge also, which was just perfect. The cafe was busy and the very pleasant waitress managed everyone's orders with ease. A lovely cafe with fresh made to order food. Would recommend you try.

Had a lovely light lunch with Panini's, filled rolls, coffee and cakes here. Everything was delicious, freshly cooked and the staff were very friendly. Thought the prices were very reasonable at £4.25 for a delicious Panini served with crisps and side salad and £2.20 for a really large slice of homemade lemon meringue pie or carrot cake so don't know where the other reviewer that thought it was pricey eats! Will definitely visit again when in the area.

My wife and I visited after I had read reviews on Trip advisor. and We could not fault the service or the food maybe a little pricey but on the whole a very pleasurable experience which we intend to do again

I came across this Lovely café in Montrose whilst visiting Friends and Family over the Christmas Holidays, I had a Caramel Latte and a Mozzarella, Basil, pesto and Tomato Panini, both of which were excellent. The staff were very friendly and the shop had a lovely atmosphere to it I will definitely be back when visiting Montrose again. P.S I highly Recommend the Caramel Latte it was delicious .....

As locals we decided to try this cafe as the coffee shop across the road was very busy, wish we had waited in the queue! Both my husband and I had soup,both tasted like dishwater! Also ordered coffee which arrived about 10 mins before the soup so it was cold by the time we had finished the soup so never even tried a cake which I was looking forward too. Won't be going back in a hurry!!

Wanted a flat white coffee and got looked at like I had two heads...I had to tell them what it was!!?? If you don't know what a flat white is then why do you have a coffee machine and a cafe called "a CUP above the rest".. Plus the bacon roll was a shocking £3.95....!!!! It's only £1.95 across the road. Having read the "half shot" comment I'm so glad I'm not the only one who was treated like this!!! The Cafe&Bistro across the road is the only place I would recommend that you try for all coffees and you won't get looked at like you have two heads!!

In response to what can only be described as a "rant" below (from the coffee experience), I was in the cafe during said visit and only saw the waitresses being nothing but polite to this couple as they were rude and shouted at the staff! In fact, others in the cafe were shocked at how aggressive this man was when entering the shop! There was no politeness as indicted by his wife, who at the time looked affronted at her husbands behaviour! Please do not be put off by this. A cup above is a warm, friendly cafe with very bubbly staff who are only to happy to see you!!!

Stopped in for lunch and had their steak sandwich, which came with a side of salad and crisps. I had a herbal tea and a lovely piece of home made cake to follow and it was all delicious. The staff are lovely and friendly and nothing is too much trouble. I would recommend you try A Cup Above if you have not tried it already as it is a hidden gem of a place.
