Billingtons of Lenzie in East Dunbartonshire

What an amazing cafe! The food was beautiful, the staff went above and beyond, and the atmosphere was great. Thank you so much to the staff for looking after me so well! If I'm in the area I will definitely go back again 😊

popped in first time the other day Coffee is so smooth and tasty and don't want to mention sweet stuff its delishhhh and Staff is very friendly and kind

All staff always very welcoming and pleasant. A regular place for coffee and lunch for me .

Visited with friends as heard good things about here. Wasn’t disappointed Good food and service was amazing with a great selection of wines. We had antipasto sharing platter and was ample and delicious. Spied they also do a huge grazing board so will be back for that.

Nice place and reasonable prices, nice coffee and a nice Danish pastry

Popped in for quick drink and snack. The atmosphere was nice and the staff were welcoming. I was unsure to eat my food (hummus) as looked watery and was running off the plate. Partner happy with cake.

First time in Billington’s Lenzie, stop in for a cup of tea and a cake. Ordered at the back of the shop and was given the cake and told to sit down and the tea would be brought over. 15 minutes later still no tea, so l went up explained and just ask the girl on the till for a takeaway tea, no apology. The place was empty and there were three staff members working. First and last, will not be back, rude staff, terrible service and way overpriced. Would not recommend to anyone, AVOID!!

I like Billingtons, visited often, however was VERY disappointed to be charged £9 corkage on a £18 bottle of wine…. Ridiculous!! Won’t be drinking wine there again. Interested if receive an explanation.

Lovely family run Deli & Cafe. My favourite is the Cinnamon latte.

This place can be really great or really bad, mainly depending on which staff are on that day. We’ve been delighted with the service and totally frustrated at other times. Today isn’t good. It’s nearly empty, with four staff on and we had to eventually go up to the deli at the back to order food to sit in. Food is generally good, coffee a bit average, could do better. They need to wake up their service as a consistent thing

Great cafe with fantastic choice of food and drink. Staff very friendly. Only 3 stars for 'service' as table service could be faster and poor quality of takeaway coffee cups - think americano is too hot for the cups as they leak after about 5 minutes.

Fantastic Burns event !! Thanks guys👍

I collected a hamper for my wife’s employer’s Christmas present. Brilliant 🤩 so lovely and great value. Kind regards Neil and Sonia

Great little artisan deli in the heart of Lenzie. Staff are lovely, service is fast and food is delicious and very reasonably priced. We ordered the lunch special, soup and filled roll for £6.50. Highly recommended.

Fantastic place. Great coffee and food

Wow … chicken soup totally disgusting tasteless . I have tried it won’t be back and will not recommend it. See the picture of the soup I was served looks like power soup to me

Such a beautiful little place.... delicious food, friendly and helpful as well as unusual goods. I cannot wait to return, thank you. Also wheelchair accessible although small, but all in the flat and you can get around

Leaky cups. Soaking kids and burnt hands now.

Had a lovely antipasti at Billingtons today. The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff make it a nice wee lunch spot.

Great food and very reasonable price.

The coffee and cake excellent as usual

As always when we visit Billingtons, lovely food , lovely staff. 5 stars every time. 💯👏👏👏👏👏

Had a lovely afternoon tea which was set out beautifully cakes sandwiches and scones with strawberry jam and cream. Could have been a wee bit warmer as we were sitting at the door in a draft but it is a small place. All in all lovely 🥰

Love this gem of a place. Been coming here for years and the food is amazing and so are the staff. My kids love it too. Would recommend to anyone ✨

Amazing, nothing is too difficult for Sue, Mark & staff. I think they have delivered to my family for every occasion, I call for my order from Perth Western.🇦🇺 Am very grateful 🙏 for their incredible patience & attention to detail. Visiting in 2023. Can't wait to meet them. Leona Brennan

This is an excellent deli with a good range of food & drink. The prices are mostly reasonable with the odd item slightly higher than I'd expect. My only real complaint is that their bread loaves aren't especially high quality.

Great atmosphere that combines the feeling of a delicatessen and general store.

Good coffee. A smile from staff or acknowledgement whilst waiting would make experience more pleasant. That said the staff were very busy.

Read some great reviews but been in a few times now and it's not the friendliest place...panni was very good but soup was watery.... Standing by this.... just had bought a take away tea and if was terrible

My 1st visit today Friday 1st April ( I think I was the April Fool) was very happy with the food I sat at a table was told it was reserved I never seen a sign but there was used coffee cups so I assumed the customers left then went to move to another table was told that was reserved which is fine then sat outside then no one came to take my order went inside was told sorry they never had a chance to come outside I seen the person drinking irn bru they had time to do that well I sat outside feeling forgotten about spent £15 in total on other products honestly never again sorry first impressions count😥

Delicious food, brilliant selection of gins...need to head back when not driving!

I recently overheard a cashier saying that she reserved tables which weren’t actually reserved so she had nothing to do SHOCKING!

Soup and Sandwich 👌 Deli has lots of fun, interesting things also. Good coffee. Nice drinks in the evening.

Lovely place, friendly staff, you have an options for sitting in, takeaway or just in store shopping. The selection of soft and alcohol drinks is great 👍

A great community deli and coffee shop with friendly attentive staff.

Lovely fresh food,fabulous coffee and most importantly friendly and efficient staff. This great bunch made lockdown easier for me . THANKS X

A regular haunt for our family for ice creams, coffees and hot chocolates when walking around Lenzie Moss. Good breakfast and lunch menus. The burger with blue cheese and bacon is my favourite. Service is polite and efficient but not rushed. Book ahead

Pleasant staff and nice coffee at 8.15am.

Very welcoming. Great staff. My Coffee was excellent. So much better than the Courtyard and Sorellos which I found to be very over priced and exceptionally over rated. Sorellos/Courtyard also rip off Military Veterans. ✌️💕🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇬🇧

Great service and lovely cheese board and cakes.

Very nice coffee but could give you a slightly bigger cup but the Delicious Carrot cake made up for this just had to order a second coffee but the service was excellent

Got a cold stone creation was super tasty and some little chocolates that were lovely. Didn't realise seating area so small so had to takeaway but seemed good vibe will be back

Love this place. Brilliant service always. Friendly and polite. Food excellent

Had a quick half hour to spend before a meeting and popped in for coffee. Such a great place and wish I lived more locally. Will be back whenever I can.

Lovely local store, excellent selection of Gin, Whiskey, and other spirits. Nice food and deli bar.

Great service cakes are amazing

Ordered afternoon tea for wife's retirement party. Great selection of sandwiches and cakes and completely separate gluten free order for our son (which he said was really good) Will use again

Afternoon tea for 2 delicious. That wait for collection not so good, but appreciate they are busy.

Nice cafe, waiting time far too long for food.

Managed to get their last loaf of sourdough today. Great produce, very helpful owner, great service.

Friendly, helpful staff...even in these strange times, they take the time to be polite and professional

First time ordering an afternoon tea from here. Brown Bread was not fresh on sandwiches. Scones were hard and not fresh. A complete waste of £18.

Coffee etc good, but someone needs to teach the young man on the till yesterday about customer service. Young girls in front of me were waiting near the door and advised me that they had been seen, but ignored. We were waiting for a while outside the window, with a queue forming, while the young man was moving cellotape back and forwards at the till, moving boards, cups etc and studiously ignoring anything going on at the window. When I challenged him on this he said people should just come in, there was a notice. He said he couldn't see any of us because of all the posters on the window. I could see everything and and the other (far more pleasant boy) were doing inside. It was quite clear he was just being bloody minded and he showed no humility at all when questioned. I think a lesson on customer service and the need for less arrogance would not go amiss.

Great ice cream especially mint choc chip with bubblegum sauce

HelloI recently ordered Afternoon Teas to give out to relatives after a funeral during Covid. They were easy to order, collect and give out to relatives after the service as per Covid guidelines. All relatives were really touched and we all had our individual teas and thoughts in safety after the service. Every guest contacted me afterwards to say what a lovely idea it had been, and how much they had enjoyed and appreciate them as a lovely touch to mark the deceased. Thank you so much Mark and his staff for making it possible.

Great deli hope to sit down for lunch soon but hearty soup and sandwiches will do for now. Hot chocolate and ice cream for adults and kids.

Always great service and great coffee. Can't fault it. Took one point off as the deli section seems to have disappeared! Haven't been up for a while, missing it, will be back soon. We've been going to other places lately to try them out as there's nothing else to do these days than go for walks, but you always return to what you know is best!

We have been coming here for years, meeting up for quick meals and snacks and drinks, and we have missed doing this since the COVID restrictions. However the team has done a great job keeping going, even with the tight squeeze. They do really excellent coffee and have the best range of gins, wines and local beers you will find anywhere. Definitely worth a visit!

Fantastic selection of gins, wines and beer together with lots of deli delights. Sue's home baking is amazing. Always enjoy coming for food when Covid allows Mark, Sue and their staff are so friendly and helpful. Cant wait until we can meet socially for food and drinks

This is such a great wee shop both for daily essentials and the occasional treat. The staff are really friendly and helpful.

Stopped in for some breakfast after moving to the area recently. Lovely staff and lots more things to buy than I expected. Definitely going to be one of my local favourites :)

Highly recommend Billington's. Great selection of wine, beer, cakes etc. Delicious coffee and snacks. Their gin is fantastic too!

Thanks to Mark for sending me a bottle of champagne that I have been searching for. He kindly sent me pics of the parcel to check I was happy - brilliant customer service!

Popped in unplanned for a takeaway coffee without a mask, covering my face with a cycling glove inside the shop. Staff spotted me, and rather than chastise kindly gave me a mask. Thanks. Coffee was good too.

Excellent service,the staff make you feel very welcome. This establishment is definitely following the government standards to the highest level.

Over priced for morning rolls not even fresh, sausage is frozen tattie scone not cooked properly waited ages totally not worth the wait or money.

Not bad. Its a hit or miss in here Had the 3 kinda tapas bits tonight was all too samey Bread and salmon bread and halloumi bread and roasted veg. Was just too stodgy

Food was great but service a bit on the slow side

Just had a tea selection and cake selection delivered to my brother and family in the G66 area, who were celebrating lockdown birthdays. They were absolutely delighted with it! It looked fab. Highly recommend this as a nice treat for someone, or even yourself.

Thank you for delivering a lovely Afternoon Tea for our parents on their Anniversary . Sandwiches and cakes I've been told are great 10/10.😋😊

Well organised social distancing. A safe shopping environment.

I very recently placed an order for afternoon tea to be delivered. Sue and Sean were great at taking care of our specific dietary requirements and the afternoon teas were delivered safely and as promised. Brilliant service and great food, highly recommend. Thanks again to all at Billington's.

I decided to surprise my Mum with an afternoon tea from Billington's. It was absolutely lovely we both thoroughly enjoyed it. We will definitely be going back!! 😊😊

Actualmente vivo en Dubai y Billington's me ha estado ayudando a entregar comida, bebidas y golosinas a mis padres durante COVID 19, ¡ya que obviamente no estoy allí para ayudarlos!El servicio y la calidad del producto es excepcional. Mis pedidos se han entregado el mismo día y las comunicaciones con el propietario Mark han sido instantáneas.Siempre han agregado un extra especial, como una tarjeta escrita a mano en el cumpleaños de mi papá entregada junto con su ginebra Lenzie favorita o envolviendo el pedido en una cesta para regalo.Fantástico negocio local, asegúrate de comprobarlo.

Fantastic homemade cakes. Good selection of drinks (beer and gin noticed by myself. Great to eat in or takeaway.

Me encontré con este lugar después de que mi tren fue cancelado. Tomé un café y sándwich de primera clase con jamón de Parma, mozzarella y pesto. Todo recién hecho a pedido para que no haya bordes rizados rancios. El personal fue amable y atento. Luego fue impresionado por la selección de vinos y cervezas. No soy un gran fanático de las ginebras, pero tengo que decir que es la mejor selección que he visto y ¡aparentemente son los dueños de la mejor ginebra de Escocia! Impresionante volveré.

Lovely cafe and off-licence, sells lovely cakes too

Great atmosphere and friendly welcoming

Great place for coffees and food. Love the selection of gin and wine in shop.

Where am I meant to sit, their is no space what so ever this is an outrage. I will never ever come back until they get me a place too sit

I was very small and there wasn't enough space for me and my family to get a table so I would recommend that this is improved

Highly recommend a visit here, coffee and cake, all freshly done. Staff were very helpful and friendly. A smile goes a long way and leaves a lasting impression.

Chia tea latte prefect for the journey home

Very reasonable, friendly staff and great food. Produce in the shop was excellent, and the cafe fodder was lovely!

First time in here but it won't be the last. Had lemon and ginger tea lovely and a pastry absolutely delicious

They are not dog friendly, despite having no sign on the door, and the place being very quiet when I visited

It was lovely to see Mark after so long but most importantly the coffee was superb... I'm a Nero and Costa regular but the quality of the flat white at Billington's beats Nero and Costa by miles. Not tried the food as yet but maybe next time. Great place and nice ambiance, will definitely be back.

He visitado Billingtons unas pocas veces y la comida ha sido deficiente. Sin embargo, parecen tener un buen nombre en el área local, ¡así que seguí tratando de ver lo que obviamente me faltaba! ?Fui con mi hija a desayunar esta mañana y me sirvieron comida que no era comestible, que luego fue respaldada con un servicio deplorable. . . Finalmente me reembolsaron, pero el gerente se volvió engreído y condescendiente cuando su voz se hizo más fuerte (en un intento de avergonzarme frente a la otra pareja de clientes) al decir "lo siento, NO te gustó la comida". . .Así que dejaré que las fotos de la comida hablen por sí mismas. . . .

I genuinely cannot fathom what I personally seem to be missing (in relation to all the excellence in food/service awards added to the seemingly good local reputation) about Billingtons.... I have tried the place many times but the food (and service) has always been substandard. However, I visited for breakfast with my daughter this morning and the food was utterly awful and the service was even worse!! The food was brick hard and completely inedible. When I (politely) returned it, I was eventually refunded, but sadly not without the manager becoming smug and patronising in her attempt to try and belittle me in front of the couple of other customers by raising her voice and saying more than once ‘so sorry YOU didn’t like the food’ and ‘sorry YOU feel that way’ I asked her a couple of times if she would have eaten what she served to me and each time she refused to answer.... I have taken photos of the ‘food’ served to me this morning (which I have posted on Trip Advisor) and they speak for themselves...

Nice atmosphere good coffee and friendly staff

It is a very big space amazing for children

Excellent service and tasty food.

Friendly and knowledgeable staff.

Great place nice ambiance and staff..

Excellent place for coffee and food

I wanted something special, for a special Aunt. Billington's fitted the bill. They helped with my selection for her hamper, making sure her likes were catered for. Even when the delivery didn't go according to plan, (my Aunt was out) they phoned to check with me that their solution was acceptable. Lovely company with lovely people. You will not be disappointed.

Really like billingtons, nice coffee and nice to sit and wait for the train. Deli is nice, and the beer and wine selection is funky. Nice to get some gifts. Although can be quite expensive.

Lieu très chaleureux avec un accueil et un service très agréable. La nourriture est fraîche et de qualité nous avons même eu la surprise d’être accueillis pas un français. Nous recommandons vivement !
