Wonderful little cafe hidden away but serving excellent coffee in a pleasant atmosphere. The couple serving were friendly and efficient. Would happily return.

Found this place in March 2022 when looking for a place to wait for friends met through Couchsurfing. Ordered a triple espresso and it was so good - the after taste just stayed with me - I ordered a second triple!! Notwithstanding my heart was going at double its usual rate for the next 6+ hours, it was definitely worth it. If I get back to the UK in my next 6 month trip from October this year, I think I will a return to Glasgow just for the coffee is worth the trip!! Glasgow is definitely worth a visit anyway - as is the Glasgow Gander Walking Tour. This was my second visit in 3 years. Am seriously sorry I didn't find Cafe Calla the first time!!

We arrived at the cafe and went to the counter to order. Whilst ordering two of their cooked breakfasts the chef, who was also behind the counter was rolling his eyes as if it was a problem for him to do. He starts moaning that he needed to go and that everytime he tries to get away someone else comes in! We nearly left! It was as if it was all too much trouble. Most of the lights apart from one were off and some of the furniture was stacked up. Not really sure what was going on. The breakfast and coffees were nice but with a chap in charge like that I wouldn’t rush back. Whatever problems he had they should have been kept out the back and not in front of the customers. Very unprofessional.

After living in the USA for years it was great to find this place, just around the corner from the Blythswood Square hotel. Fantastic roll and sausage or a number of full menu items. Great tea and all the types of coffee you want. It’s clean and nicely decorated.

We stopped in for breakfast. The food was tasty and nicely presented. This will be our go-to cafe for the rest of our stay.

I have been to many cafes in Glasgow but this beats them all...on service, quality, atmosphere and value. The coffee was superb - great tasting, well made. Exceptional place to have an informal business meeting. Will undoubtedly return.

we where there for a 50th birthday party. A cozy space, but plenty of room for guests to be seated and to mill around, the food was amazing, totally not your run of the mill buffet, delicious. hot and cold food. and it was bring your own bottle.I would like to try the day time menu, and try some more food, i dont think i would be disappointment. On another plus point, the toilets passed my test too, In too many small places they spend money at front of house and the toilets leave a lot to be desired, not in here, there is one toilet for everyone m but its roomy, clean and you dont feel like you have been put in the broom cupboard. Definateloy be back, i would certainly consider this venue for a private function .

Been here for both a lunch and a private event. The staff ensure you have a wholesome tasty meal with friendly service. When it’s a private function nothing is too much trouble for them they go out of their way to ensure your event is individually tailored to your needs. A great find highly recommended.

Just moved into West George Street and found this great basement cafe for lunch. Great selection of toasties, wraps, soups etc. they also have a street food Friday which is to die for. Hoping to make this a regular haunt. Would recommend it. Staff are friendly.

My first visit during my Glasgow stay. Came here and had a late breakfast consisting of a raisin scone and a pot of tea. Super cozy atmosphere, feels like a local regular cafe. Very nice owner who gave me some tips on other places to visit nearby.

Won’t be controversial to say one of the best bakeries I’ve ever been to in Glasgow. The lineup: BLAT (bacon lettuce avocado tomato) Meatball Bap Lorne, egg and black pudding roll Jeeeeeeessssss Louise this was good. My sandwich (the blat) was made with incredible sourdough, with just the perfect amount of crisp around the edges and super soft in the middle, could’ve eaten that all day without cutting a single bit of my mouth. The other two, I was told, were placed on some fantastic rolls, with almost milk bread like texture, almost made me jealous. The meatballs were packed full of herby juicy deliciousness, and the square sausage was gone before I could even try a taste. The wait staff were incredibly friendly and helpful as well. My friend spilled his drink but they took the extra steps to not only help clean up the spill but also got him a free refill. Going that little bit out of the way really makes the experience special, so thank you! Seems like a lovely wee community that goes there and with it being slap bang on anniesland cross it’s still fairly handy to get to! I’ll definitely be back for some bread, a pie and maybe another cup of delicious tea! Also if you are looking to preorder their sourdough the best way to do it is to follow their facebook page, and when they release their menus on Wednesday, pop a comment on the post with your name and day you want to get it with minimum 24hrs notice!!! I’ve revisited just to try the pastries, which is yet another great recommendation from me. The danishes they make change toppings regularly, and the one pictured was essentially a Black Forest gateau on a danish. Excellent! Cheers to another great Glasgow business :)

We were in the area and in urgent need of baby changing. Cafe owner was lovely and although we didn't eat, if the cafe vibe/ atmosphere/ friendliness of owner is anything to go by the food will be smashing too!
