Great place for breakfast, the atmosphere is super nice and the staff is extremely friendly. We got the eggs benedicts and the scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and they were both delicious.

Popped in for breakfast whilst visiting Glasgow, my word what a lovely place! Decor is beautiful, service is excellent. Full English breakfast was wonderful, quality ingredients, the bacon was particularly lush. Perfect poached egg atop beautiful sourdough... It was all gorgeous. Hubby said coffee was superb. Tea, coffee and two full breakfasts came to £35. Probably on the pricier side but I'd say well worth it.

Whether Weegie, adopted Weegie, or Visitor, everyone must visit Gandolfi at least once because it is amazing: then the wise are likely to want to keep going back! Over the years, it has been our go-to restaurant when we have needed a wee bit of a lift, in our spirits (for a few years the restaurant,and upstairs bar, were a just-about-affordable, occasional luxury to keep us going in difficult times). Now, in busy lives we aren't fortunate enough to call ourselves regulars, however, when we have the pleasure of stopping to entertain visitors (from all over the world) in Glasgow- we think of Cafe Gandalfi; and visitors, well, they always LOVE it. Friends are always impressed, by the beautiful building, the paneling, the artwork, the sculptural solid wooden seating, and the friendly, patient service as you inevitably struggle to find something that you don't want to try(!) from the menu of beautiful plates of all sizes, and extensive of wines, beers and spirits. All served with a comfortable, sometimes contemporary, nostalgic Scottish embrace. Strongly setting its own pace, and tone, Gandalfi is the foodie- sanctuary of Merchant City.

They may have a decent reputation for food but the man that saw us this morning could do with a customer service refresher! Called in for breakfast, after standing a few mins he came over with a scowl on his face and abruptly said 'Reservation?' To which we replied 'No' - ' Its all reservation today' he added still scowling. I suggest you treat potential customers with a bit more curtesy, reputations can be lost very quickly. To add insult to injury we went on the places website where a table was available to be booked within half an hour of our visit. Sham!! Would not return under any circumstances.

Cafe Gandolfi is situated in the Merchant City Glasgow at the rear of the City Halls, the base of the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra. A relaxed atmosphere with lovely food on offer throughout the day with various beverages. When quite a lovely place to sit, relax with friends and chew away part of the day. A lovely restaurant.

Located in the vibrant "Merchant City" on the site of Glasgow's old cheese market, Café Gandolfi has a quirkily convivial interior: handmade stained glass windows, wood-toned walls, attractively designed wooden furniture and contemporary prints and photographs by Scottish artists. The food is the best of Scottish fare . . . fresh, tasty, and served in generous portions. Service is welcoming, swift, and unassumingly proficient.

I had Scottish breakfast three times during my trip to Glasgow, and the black pudding and potato scones here were the most delicious. Black coffee is a strong coffee with a strong bitter taste, possibly due to dark roasting.

Referenced in the Hachette backpacker's guide, this wooden-clad café is a warm nest in which to curl up during a stopover in Glasgow. Its masterful cuisine, with succulent flavors, will suit meat lovers and vegetarians alike. A café which, it is important to mention, knows how to make good coffee. I emphasize that the service was VERY attentive. I recommend 💯

Amazing place for dinner. Friendly service which was very personal and they experimented a bit with traditional scottish cuisine. Mix a scotch egg with Nduja and you get an exciting dish! They also get their haggis from an award winning butcher. So allthough this was my first time trying haggis, I really liked it. A very home dish in a very homy place.

I eat brunch here on most Saturdays and the quality of service and the food is always superb. There is a variation in the menu but you can always get the full breakfast if you feel up to it. The range of egg dishes is eggcellent(geddit!) and the coffee served is immaculate and tastes fantastic. The staff are always friendly and welcoming. Make sure you book in advance as it is always very popular.

Went here having arrived overnight from Birmingham looking for breakfast and this place topped the reviews. Firstly, if you are coming here book in advance. The food - ordered a full Scottish. What arrived was a couple of pieces of overcooked streaky bacon, a peely-wally tattie scone, a single link sausage, black pudding (this was particularly nice I have to say), and a couple of grilled tomatoes. For the attached receipt I'd expect a lot more of the food which was okay but not for this price. I will find somewhere else next time I'm in Glasgow. I get it's Merchant City but still...

WOW - what a dissapointing dinner menu. The staff were friendly and it had a nice atmosphere. My wife and I went on valentines. We had the dumplings in a burnt onion broth. The dumplings were tasteless and the onion broth was extremely watery and again tasteless. Mains we had chick pee daal with chapatti. This scolded my mouth as I think it was heated in the microwave it had absolutely no flavour only chick pea and chilli, The chapatti was extremely greasy and raw dough. My wife had the coley which she said was so so , but dissapointing at £22. The desserts seemed store bought and the cream that came with the chocolate cake was unseasoned ie no vanilla extract or sweetness. We could hear the couple behind us making small talk also on how poor the food was and after their mains they didnt stay for coffee and were off after making a complaint about their bill. Even on valentines I would have expected that the specials would have been something for couples, but no, the special was a pistrami sandwich - should have gone to subway. There were no sign of chicken, pork, beef or ham on the menu and if you wanted veg with your mains that is extra as they come as a side. We should have maybe gone for breakfast as the breakfast menu does look good.

Beautiful wooden old room with handmade furniture and an old soul. Sadly food quality isn’t quite there yet with new management. Potatoes sitting in mayonnaise and good fresh salmon ruined by heavy cream sauces. Not home style like it used to be or modern enough for contemporary eating. Needs to find its feet in the new era. But a nice place to go, especially cosy in the winter.

Pricey and underwhelming. We have been to Cafe Gandolfi in the past and normally have a good experience but sadly that was not the case today. It was ok, but frankly at these prices I'm looking for better than that . The menu choices where limited and the prices seem to have gone up a notch. £90 for two mains, two small glasses of wine, two soft drinks some bread/olives and a bit of caramel shortcake seemed in the steep side. It was v busy so clearly still popular but tbh I'd think twice before returning.

Trading on past fame, doesn't do the basics well. Arriving we were ignored by one of the (too few) staff, literally kept his back to us on the phone. Just make eye contact, smile, apologise non-verbally! My risotto looked lovely, tasted lovely but was several minutes undercooked, not al dente more all gritty. Herself's leeks were cool and greasy, associated veg undercooked. There was a time, but that time has passed. Too many other places are as good / better and too many of those places are too close for me to look to go back.

By chance, we stumbled upon this cafe after discovering that the original one we had planned to visit was fully booked. Thankfully, it turned out to be a fortunate change of plans, as we would have otherwise missed out on this gem! Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome, and the atmosphere was cozy, with excellent service. The coffee was perfect, and the Scottish breakfast, especially the black pudding, was absolutely delicious! If we were to visit Glasgow again, I would undoubtedly choose to return to this cafe.

There are so many great reasons to come here for breakfast. It was so great our first day that we returned for the next two days. The welcome from Anne Marie and Stuart when we came in and throughout our time there was so warm and friendly. The furniture is amazing - tables and chairs designed and made by the late Tim Stead are so unusual and chunky. It was like being in a wood sculpting gallery, the furniture is so beautiful. The coffee was fantastic, the full cooked with tasty Stornoway black pudding, lovely smoked salmon and a generous portion of scrambled eggs. And when I asked for fried instead of scrambled with my smoked salmon it was no trouble. Highly recommend, we'll definitely go back when we're next in Glasgow.

I’ve been travelling around Europe for 3 months, 15 countries, trying local delicacies. I came here for the haggis and let me tell you it did not disappoint! In fact I’d have to say it was probably one of the best meals I’ve had in the last 3 months! Flavoursome, smooth, hearty, and just so satisfyingly good! The sauce on the side was just the perfect balance of flavours and tied everything in together so well. My compliments to the chef! Thank you for a very memorable meal. 10/10 would recommend!

I used to travel to Glasgow a lot - it was like a second home to me. This was 30 years ago. Cafe Gandolfi was always one of my most favourite spots. Mostly for breakfast but for dinner now and then as well. Then I moved to Germany and haven't been back for almost 30 years. Now I'm back in the UK and travelling to Glasgow on business. So it was with HUGE trepidation that I turned up without a reservation worrying that it wasn't going to be as good as I remembered. I managed to get the last free table and was rewarded with food and service that was as good as, if not better, than I remembered whilst still retaining its unique charm. It was quite emotional to be honest.

The food is very tasty and the portions are good. They have quite successfully added their own spin on every dish we tried, which is a nice touch.

All in all a good experience so can recommend this place if you want some great food in a nice setting.

Had a very nice early evening meal - with nice quirky interpretations of some classics (kedgeree and Cullen skink) that worked really well. Venison on flatbread let the side down slightly - was fine, just lacked a but of wow factor. The substantial desserts were great - Basque cheesecake is good for those with a sweet tooth, and the Truffled Bigod cheese is recommended if you are in the mood for a strongly flavoured savoury.

The food was equally lovely and of top quality: my son enjoyed his full Scottish breakfast, particularly the black pudding and my smoked salmon and scrambled eggs on sour dough were perfectly cooked. The coffee was hot and strong, and the orange juice cold and fresh. It set us up nicely for the day, that's for sure.
