We opdered 2 coffees and sat outside. We were told u cant use the outside seating if u order takeaway. Also if someone else wants to sit out side, u will have to move. WTF!? There are plenty more options and alternatives to this place in Kirkintilloch. I suggest you try these first. 👍🏼

We ate here on a busy Sunday morning and the service was excellent and staff friendly and professional. Cracking breakfast menu making it hard to decide what to order! Food well presented and great quality. Poached eggs cooked perfectly and homemade hollandaise sauce. Yummy! I enjoyed my coffee but my husband found it a bit bitter. We ordered waffles from their takeaway shop next door, for our daughter, and it tasted amazing! Looking forward to our next visit.

I was in Wednesday for lunch with my friend. The food was lovely but one thing that let it down was the following. We both were about to decide to leave when one of the servers came over asking did we want anything else, she had her hands behind her back My friend said no just the bill please Straight away she took the bill from behind her back. After we left I thought that was a bit rude of her she also did it to the table next to us too. Feel that's very un professional to do this.

Appalling service! . My daughter and I stood waiting for nearly 10 minutes, waiting for a staff member to find us a seat. Some of the staff were chatting amongst themselves; they saw us but we were ignored . We left and went to Dnisi, which was first class in every way.

This is a lovely little cafe, right in the heart of Kirkie. I stumbled upon on here, on a sunny day for lunch, and returned on a rainy day, for brunch. Both times the food has been excellent and the coffee great. The food was served on nice warm plates, which is a must in my book. The staff and the service have been super. This cafe would not be out of place in the West end of Glasgow. I would definitely recommend and will certainly be back.

A small Queue tells me that it’s a popular Restaurant so we were happy to wait the suggested ten minutes. Staff were immediately very friendly and we later found they were all very efficient too. A pleasant place to sit with good atmosphere and the food did not disappoint. We had soups and ciabatta toasties of all types, all were excellent. Followed up by cakes and coffees which were equally good. If we are anywhere near the area we will certainly be back. Thankyou to all the staff.

My friend and I visited with out 11 year old sons for Sunday brunch. The cafe was full so we had to come back half an hour later. We soon discovered why the cafe was full as we were delighted to receive what we all thought was a perfect brunch. The food was exceptional, the staff were friendly and attentive. The eggs were poached to perfection. Clear plates all round from us but unfortunately I was too full to have a danish pastry. They looked flipping amazeballs. Can't wait t pop visit again and try more of the menu's delights and check out the wonderful Regent shopping centre.

Have now been to Alessio's to eat in about 4 times and also had a good few takeaways. The food is always lovely and the coffee is delish. The staff are always friendly but unfortunately the service is just a bit too slow. Visited this weekend and it was busy, so it is understandable that service would be a bit slower than normal however we waited around 35 minutes for two egg dishes (one eggs Benedict and eggs Stornoway) - not ideal. This place would be perfect if the service was just improved a bit! All in all though, it's a lovely wee local place :-)

A fantastic place to eat in Kirkintilloch offering traditional Scottish mixed with continental quisine. My wife had a roll 'n' sausage & potato scone from the breakfast menu which is served until 3pm (they must know what time she gets up at) while I went for the crayfish and avocado in lemon and chive mayonnaise on brown bloomer sandwich with sides of delicious red cabbage coleslaw, tortilla chips and lamb's leaf, cucumber and tomato salad. I've had a similar meal in a very nice Parisian bistro but it couldn't hold a candle to the meal I had in Alessio's. The service from the very attentive and friendly staff made it a pleasure to eat here. We will definitely be back and can't recommend it enough.

Despite it being a busy Saturday morning, the staff managed to put tables together to accommodate the 7 of us. We had a variety of different breakfasts, and there was not a single crumb left on any plates. Beautifully cooked poached eggs and a good variety on the breakfast menu. Can't fault the service. Staff were serious but attentive and certainly not unfriendly. Two of the party found it difficult to hear due to the natural echo of the building, so if this is something that troubles you I would ask for a seat through the back.

After a week of not being well and not being able to eat had an absolutely lovely soup and half sandwich in here. Could hardly get a a table! But.... 5 older ladies turned up and sat next to us and basically complained about everything. Soup was tasteless etc. Wish I had had said something then hence my review. If you don’t like it, don’t go! In my opinion it was fab just sorry they sat next to us cos that kind of of ruined my experience. Go home and make ur own soup if ur no happy! I will be be back

Yesterday, myself and 3 friends decided to have morning coffee once more in Alessio's in Kirkintilloch. Again, there was no hurry in ordering, Alessio himself served us and our morning was most enjoyable. Each of us opted for different teas or coffee and everyone enjoyed theirs. My friends were just having scones which looked scrumptuous. However I had overheard someone ordering French toast, something which I had not eaten in a long time, so I chose that. Served with fresh fruit it was absolutely DELICIOUS. Well done ,once again Alessio! Also one thing which makes my visit anywhere more satisfactory is the condition of the toilets. Although there is only one it is always in pristine order.

Popped in here with family yesterday for morning coffee and cake. The coffee was lovely and the selection of cakes we ordered were very nice. My favorite was the red velvet sponge; a huge slice of moist tasty cake with delicious buttercream. The Victoria sponge was fluffy and also good, but for me the fake cream spoiled it. The brownie was a huge triangle. Thought that the selection of cakes was good and the quality of baking high. Would return and hopefully get to sit in the front next time(with the lovely feature stone wall, think it is nicer than the back part with it's photo wall).

This is somewhere I frequent for its excellent coffee but now find its much more than a coffee shop after a recent visit with friends I enjoyed their new idea of extending to small wine and tapas plates in the evenings, it maybe just the best idea they have come up with, only time will tell, however it is exactly what you would want if you are not up for a big heavy meal, I can honestly say the Pate and Sourdough toast was excellent followed by the biggest tapas type board shared between 4 with all the usual choices including the excellent hams and cheeses add on the excellent well priced wine (we polished off 3 bottles ) finished with coffee and as you can guess left very happy. Good luck to Alessio's they deserve to be successful, try it you wont be disappointed. Not a big selection but great if your looking for nothing too heavy

The food and service is great and all very reasonably priced for the quality. The setting and atmosphere is very upmarket and is a great addition to the high street.

Really lovely decor inside and lovely friendly staff. Good food choices and lovely homebaking too Everything that was leaving the kitchen looked piping hot, great portions and a lovely deceptive little/large escape for a cuppa x

Had lunch here today and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. Menu is great as is quality of food. Service is friendly and efficient. The Bistro itself has been well designed with a good ambience. Would certainly visit this place again.

Lovely staff, tasty coffee and delicious food. I believe that Alessio's is fairly new on the Main Street and it seems to have kicked off with a growing customer base. Very clean and well organised.

This gem of a restaurant is by far the nicest I've ever been to. The food tasted amazing, my party all ordered different meals from the menu and all were delighted by the taste and look. The staff were attentive and went above and beyond to make our night one to remember. We're already planning our next night out at la Vita in Bishopbriggs.
