Bridges Coffee House in Angus

Love this wee cafe. Coffee is lovely and cakes are just fabulous. Lunch is good too. Well worth a visit. Prices are very reasonable.

A warm welcome. Staff very friendly and helpful. Excellent (decaf) coffee, lovely roll and sausage. Very reasonable prices. Nice atmosphere, very clean.

Good fresh food in a clean well looked after cafe.Immaculate toilets and pleasant staff. Found it easy to park around the village.

Return of a fantastic cafe. Friendly service,always made welcome. Food served spot on and not long to wait either. Young daughter absolutely loves to visit although you ain't doing pancakes (these are her favorite) we always have manged to get something else. Definitely a great cafe in kirriemuir. Keep up the good work

Delighted that the team from previous operations have taken over and reopened this delightful coffee shop in Kirriemuir. Good fresh food and delicious cakes with a choice of hot and cold beverages.

I come here every six weeks or so when the dog gets a haircut. I thought I'd return and se if it was as good as the first time, and I wasn't disappointed. Good location, great coffee, good wifi, very friendly staff, good quiet music. My only worry is that the more five star reviews it gets the more popular it will become and the harder it will to get my favourite seat.

I stop for coffee here whenever I have time to spare in Kirriemuir. I can think of no negatives. The lady who serves is efficient and friendly. The coffee is superb. The place is spotless, including the toilet. It's dog friendly. The music is unobtrusive and good. There's free wi-fi which makes working very easy. The location is very convenient. And it's good value for money.

Popped in today for a takeaway lunch. Lady was very nice and offered us a seat while we waited on our food. We had Italian Tomato Soup and Bacon & Egg rolls plus some home baking. Soup was marvellous, the bacon was done to perfection and the home baking was fresh and tasty! Would recommend Bridges to anyone who wants good hearty food 😊

Very friendly staff and visitors Made a fuss of our wee dog n brought her a water bowl. Terrific visit

Lovely breakfast with the family. Staff were welcoming and took details for track and trace, menu clearly written on the wall. Everything fresh and made to order 2 bacon rolls, scrambled egg on toast and hot drinks. Staff couldn't have been nicer and regularly asked if we wanted or needed anything more. Definately worth a stop if your passing through

After lockdown decided to try and support the local establishments. Chose Bridges Coffee House for our first outing. The lady who served us was rude and unwelcoming. Our meal was lukewarm. On reading the other reviews on this website I can only think we got our server on a bad day. Sorry but won’t be back.

This little gem is not in the centre of the town but is worth looking for if in the area. We had bacon and egg rolls with coffee and both arrived very promptly The rolls were fresh and the coffee lovely and hot so nothing to fault. Service was with a smile and the prices very reasonable too. The cakes looked amazing but wrong time of day, unfortunately

We visited this coffee shop recently and i must say coffee is excellent and the breakfast rolls the same ,the staff are most helpful and cannot do enough to make your visit enjoyable

Popped in here for a light lunch and was not disappointed. The old fashioned ambiance and gentle non obtrusive background music of a bygone age, made for a now rare but very civilised experience. With only seven tables seating about 20 people, the coffee house was comfortably full but were were quickly served with delicious good value food which tasted home made. The choices are not huge but the range should cater for all palates and after all, this is advertised as a coffee house. The staff are absolutely delightful and helpful to the extreme. We were a group of four and between us had quiches and tomato soup. The portions were more than adequate and we considered good value. Being a coffee house, the choice of hot drinks is excellent. I had a hot chocolate which was memorable and the best one that I have had for quite some time. The whole experience was like stepping back in time in the best possible way - the food was tasty, the service excellent and the whole experience very civilised. Thank you to Bridges for taking me back to a gentler time which I thought until now was impossible to replicate.

First time here Came in for a cooked breakfast First disappointment no cooked breakfast Only filled rolls- ordered bacon rolls & cappuccino. Bacon roll to be fair was tasty but had to wait over 20mins on my coffee! The lady that served us was not very welcoming or helpful. Luke warm !! NOTHING up in cafe to say it only takes CASH so had to go out in the pouring rain to get a cash line - came back and more of Frosty Face 🙄 Won’t be back and certainly won’t be recommending it either !

Popped into this coffee shop and had a tasty chocolate cake and Cappuccino - a very welcome break on a very long walk around Kirriemuir. Prices were extremely reasonable and the staff super friendly.Will definitely be back !!

Called in for an impromptu coffee, with a fresh scone and a fresh meringue with cream that required two plates due to its generous size . A pleasant atmosphere with friendly staff.

It's quite a small coffee house and it's always busy. The coffees good and so is the home baking. The staff could be a bit more welcoming.

We visited this café a few weeks ago to sample the coffee as we were told it is exceptional ,we were not disappointed ,I can now say we are regular customers as the food is excellent and the staff most friendly

We were made to feel very welcome here at lunch time on a rainy day with 2 dogs. The staff were very friendly and even brought water for the dogs. The food was lovely, generous portions of stovies, and it's good to know that the profits go to good causes. Will go back of we are in the area again.

Went to Bridges while on holiday. Nice friendly coffee shop, coffee, scones & cakes where lovely. Staff very friendly. Our wee dog was made very welcome. We will definitely be back .

This cafe has a limited menu. Coffee was good. Food was acceptable, only. Service friendly but rather lacking in care and attention

Great little place and very friendly. good grub and great service. Just a shame about the parking restrictions in Kirriemuir now though.

Lovely cappuccino and millionaire shortbread. Very friendly service, nothing too much trouble. Asked for extra hot coffee and it was perfect.

Nice little café with home made cakes. Make sure to try the extra special enormous hot chocolate with cream! :)

My mum had a cream meringue and I had Stovies. Both were excellent. It took two tries for mum to finish her meringue, she enjoyed it very much. My stovies were delicious and had nice chunks of beef. Will definitely go back!

Have been here a few times now and cannot fault it, the soups are really good and my boys love the stovies and macaroni cheese. The cakes and traybakes are great too if you have room. And as for the service and cleanliness well it is second to none!

A great spot for a quiet coffee and a cake, and right in the heart of the Angus town of Kirriemuir. A lovely relaxing atmosphere.

Visiting a friend in Kirriemuir out shopping so decided to go here for lunch. Very impressed had a massive plate of stovies warm cosy and friendly. Will defo be back.

Looking for a cuppa in Kirrie and came across here. Got the last table so thought this place must be ok. Coffee and bacon roll and tea and toastie ordered so time to read the stuff on the menu to discover that this is a charity run place so all profit goes to charity. Nice to see and support

Went for lunch with my Australian friends and wife - we all ordered the soup. The soup was ok although served in small bowls with bread. At least one slice of bread appeared to be mouldy which we pointed out to the waitress. The slice was grabbed away and she said it wasn't mould. As we checked each slice of bread, some of which was the heel of the loaf, before eating the waitress suddenly grabbed the plate, saying "you're obviously going to inspect each slice", took it away without an offer of an apology or fresh bread. Absolutely deplorable behaviour.

I always love the baking, Scones especially. Gluten free baking is usually available too. Staff so friendly.

Yummy food, is dog friendly, they have great coffee. Don’t pass Kerriemuir without stopping here first

Great place, huge fresh cream meringue, in heaven, also dog friendly which was great.... highly recommend

Popped in for a bite of lunch and was really impressed with the friendly service. Also the fact that the cafe supports a project in Uganda, with lots of trinkets to browse through. I couldn't believe the size of the meringues! There was a good selection of teas, which came in a generous sized pot.

Begrudging, slow service. Took 30 mins to heat up some mediocre baked potatoes and was charged £5 for each. Don't bother.

Your Cappuccino was so hot it burned the skin of the top of my mouth and all the way down to my stomach my mouth is still extremely sore a day and a half later

Great selection of cakes and baking.....stovies are to die for though...... The soup looks great also probably try that next time....

Excellent coffee and delicious cherry scones, generously sized and busting with fruit. Love that they warm the scones for you. Very welcoming and friendly atmosphere. Would highly recommend.

Went on Friday for coffee and roll with sausage and it was excellent. The heating was on and it was very cosy on a cold dreech morning. Will definitely be back.

Four of us with two children popped in here for lunch. We had planned to go to a nearby farm cafe, but it was closed and we did not know anywhere else to eat locally. However, we stumbled upon this cafe and it was lovely. Staff could not have been more helpful, pulling two tables together for us and coping when one of the wee ones spilt water across the table. The coffee was excellent and the food very good indeed. Lovely stovies! A great find! Thanks so much to the friendly staff.

Excellent coffee and baking and all done to fund overseas projects. Comfortable and quiet and rightly popular.

I had time to kill so decided to have a coffee here. The meringues looked delicious but I didn't have time to eat my way through one. The assistant kindly offered to wrap one for me to take away. My coffee was brought very promptly and was delicious. On leaving I was presented with a handy little paper carrier containing my meringue.

Popped in here on Saturday morning with some friends. We were going walking on some of the paths surrounding Kirrie and fancied having a coffee and bite to eat before we headed off. This place was quite simply excellent. One friend had a well-filled bacon roll, while both the other and I had scrambled eggs on toast - quite clearly free-range eggs by the colour and taste - delicious! Also had a round of coffees which was enhanced by a free top-up, but did well to resist the wide range of great looking home made cakes on display. Staff were very friendly and chatty too. We shall undoubtedly be back walking in the area again in the future and this will most certainly be our pre-walk/post-walk café of choice. Please keep doing exactly what you're doing, you've got it just right.

Stopped off here for a spot of lunch and was not disappointed. Nice choice, lovely, friendly staff and food was delicious.

La cafetería solemos visitar en Kirriemuir es bastante irregular y a menudo cerradas, incluyendo hoy. Esto puede ser frustrante, pero no ahora hemos descubierto puentes que es simplemente precioso. Fecha deliciosa, rollos de rodajas de tocino y capuchinos increíble sabroso con verdadero chocolate espolvoreado encima....

Este es un excelente café. El personal era realmente amable y claramente disfrutamos de su trabajo. Yo opté por una crema fresca merengue y café. El merengue era enorme (yo me las arreglé! ) El café era el mejor que he tenido en mucho tiempo.

Agradable y acogedor, con un personal muy amable de bienvenida. Las tortas caseras son muy sabrosos y todo tiene un precio razonable

Muy agradable. El café era bueno y el tocino eran lo mismo: eran fantásticos. Buena calidad de pan y tocino. La salsa HP. El café también era buena, en un entorno agradable agradable. Bueno para un aperitivo, tartas y aperitivos almuerzo. Vale la pena una visita.

Lovely coffee shop with a charitable slant- all the profits go to a charity which supports projects in Uganda. So you can feel good whilst eating the most amazing, huge meringues!, as well as enjoying other home baking and great coffees. Good value too. Would definitely go again.

We visited this compact and bijou coffee house at the weekend. A place with a lovely ambience, it was busy with the hum of diners enjoying the fresh, tasty food. There was a good variety of food and drinks on the menu and service was prompt and served with a smile. We would most certainly visit again. It was a pleasure to dine in such a cosy, welcoming place. The workers there must be proud of the service they offer. Good work, girls!

Visited while on holiday in lovely quaint town of Kirriemuir. Lovely wee coffee shop, great service. Very homely, great broccoli & stilton soup and the best lattes ever! All in a great cause with 100% towards worthy charities.

Everything about Bridges does you good. They make nice Fairtrade coffee and excellent cakes, they're welcoming to children and provide a pleasant place to sit. Profits go to charity and the café is a collecting point for the local food bank. It's an asset to the community.

Lovely home made food, coffee to die for, two minutes from central car park. All in an exceptionally good cause, pop in and see.

I always drop in here after the Folk Festival, and it really is a braw place. Good Mocha and cakes, very reasonable lunches, and all profits go to charitable projects in Uganda. Every toon should have a place like this.

The Angus towns - all seven of them - are well served by a new wave of modern cafes providing excellent coffee and food. In terms of quality of fare and warmth of welcome for the lonesome visitor wanting to check e-mails over a strong cup of coffee, or a respite for harried parents with a bevy of children and pushchairs. The food is excellent. Nearly all locally sourced, fresh and tasty. It is also excellent value. Kirriemuir is indeed a lucky little country town to have The Bridges Coffee House.By the way, The cafe is also an excellent starting or finishing point for an exploration of the town, Barrie's Birthplace, Bon Scott's memorial, the Camera Obcura or the wonderful Peter Pan themed park with the old cricket pavilion for the game James Barrie loved all his life. A walk around old Kirriemuir, a peak through the varied windows of the town's shops, a visit to the Museum or Kinnordy Loch are all set in the wonderful landscape of the Angus Hills and Glens, wrapped around by the fertile acres of the Vale of Strathmore.A visit to The Bridges Cafe is a lot more than a quick bite and a cups. It is the launch point for enjoying one of Scotland's most enchanting country towns.

Une petite adresse à potentiel, principalement salon de thé, on y sert également un peu de salé pour rassasier les affamés.

Had this place recommended to me only last week with such enthusiasm that I just to give it a try. I found the cafe to be very comfortable with a relaxing atmosphere. The staff were all friendly, welcoming, and attentive. There is a wide range of dishes, and the variety of home baking is very impressive. I can definitely recommend the cream filled meringues. Delicious!

The atmosphere is very relaxing, the food is good and made on a daily basis. It is a Christian charity run shop and those who work in it are very pleasant and friendly. would recommend a visit as it is in the towns main street. Kirriemuir is nota large town so it easily found at end of Bank Street.

Popped in for a bite to eat as we passed through Kirriemuir. Great selection of food and, most importantly, cake! Decent cup of coffee and would certainly recommend stopping by! The cafe was busy with 'ladies who lunch' which is always a good sign!

Great homemade soup & a lovely hot baked potato & cheese, melted to perfection. ;-) I have also sampled the Bacon Roll on previous visits. Again, cooked to perfection. ;-)

I love this place. Get a great coffee and nice cakes The staff are always friendly and chatty. Would definitely recommend.

Very lucky to work just along the road from this little place, nothing cheers up a hectic day at work like a caramel hot chocolate and a meringue big enough to feed a small country! Usually have takeaway but it's a lovely place to sit in too with friendly, welcoming staff.

Our walking group called in here as one of the women knew about it. We were all delighted with the coffee and cakes, the service and the prices - you can't ask for more - oh yes the atmosphere? Warm. And as others have said all profit goes to an African charity. Keep up the good work, ladies. We will return when our next walk takes us to Kirrie.

Lovely wee place! Really cute setting and friendly staff. Portion sizes are huge and great prices plus all profits go to charity! Would definitely visit again.

Visited this café on a very cold Monday March day. We didn't realise that the café is run for charity and all profits go to this. It was a lovely wee café and I had some very nice tomato and lentil soup to warm me up, it was delicious. My husband had some very nice stovies. The service was excellent and both the ladies serving were extremely friendly and helpful. Well worth a visit if your visiting Kirriemuir. Support a good cause, while eating some delicious food!

Very pleasant service, superb snack food, and yes, meringues to buy and take home, if you can wait that long !!

The cakes and meringues are wonderful. The coffee is ok, the soups are good and what i have seen what people get for breakfast, looks great. The service is always with a smile. A great place to meet for a chat.

This is a lovely relaxing café, very friendly, lovely food and coffee. My dad loves coming her for a latte and their meringues are to die for as well as all the other cakes they have.

Meringues are so large that it is as well to buy one and share but they will allow you to buy and take away. Nice cafe to have a quick snack. Well run with pleasant people to serve.

Popped in here in August and had the best bacon and egg roll with a tasty coffee. Nice feel and the charitable work done is clearly shown. Highly recommended.

Good quality food on offer, in clean surroundings by friendly staff - with profits going to a charity

Enjoy stopping in here for an afternoon cup of tea and cake, never disappointed. Definately recommend the meringues.

Lovely little cafe with friendly staff and meringues to die for! My husband and I split one between us. The other food looked good too. Hope to go back soon.

We were looking for somewhere to have a cup of coffee and spotted this cafe. It is run as a charity and the staff are volunteers with reasonably priced food. The bacon rolls were superb (we had seconds!) and the meringues were huge and perfectly made.
