Kaf Coffee in Glasgow City

I love passing by Kaf as they have wonderful pastries. The service is perfect everyone who works there is lovely and super helpful. The almond cinnamon swirls are to die for.

I created a Tripadvisor account purely to lavish Kaf with praise. I go out of my way to get coffee from them any time I leave my house, confident that they will consistently make me the best coffee in Glasgow. There are some amazing coffee shops in this city, but Kaf is truly elite; the staff are lovely, welcoming and take their time on their machine regardless of the queue size, ensuring that I am satisfied every time I rock up for my fix. Bravo!

I've been coming to Kaf for a few years now and have enjoyed all manner of things - From affogatos and bear claws, to cookies and the best coffee in Glasgow BUT on my latest visit, something caught my eye... something spectacular. At first I thought it was the light reflecting off one of the glistening twisty rings (a must have Kaf staple). I was wrong, it was in fact, their new scales that feature a high tech LCD display and stainless steel top that make the scales super easy to clean. Wow, I can't believe it. I thought I had seen it all in this modern world but Kaf and their scales have shown me just how far we've come. Love this place.

Delicious coffee (oat flat white), followed by a fried chicken sandwich and a hash brown. Huge portions first of all, which is great when the total for sandwich and a coffee was £17 something. But the amount of oil used for the hash brown, and the fried chicken was too much. Only could manage a few bites before feeling full. Chicken was very fatty (the piece I had was), and a ton of sauce. Chicken much too large for the small bun, and hard to eat. Wouldn't order again, but I'll come back to try some pastries another time.

Kaf is simply perfect - a humble little place with pleasant staff. Personal favourites of mine are the cardamom buns, tiramasu and the scandi bowl (although I did hear they don't do the latter anymore which is a shame!) as well as the delicious coffee. I don't think I'll ever stop going here.

Whenever we’re in Glasgow we always head here and we’re never disappointed. Best flat white and baked goods are delicious. Takeaway only but it’s perfect fodder for wandering through Glasgow.

Traveled to visit my Girlfriend in Glasgow, She took me to KAF for brunch and I was blown away by how great the food and coffee was! This is a must-visit spot!

Fantastic little spot always providing a great offering of delicious sweets and savouries to go with an excellent cup of coffee.

The best coconut and lime cake in town! An amazing place to have your brunch and coffee! P. S. Nice staff. Best wishes from Greece

Best brunch I’ve had in a while! Pulled pork hush puppies were a delight - I want to try the whole menu!

I’ve had at least 20 Chilli Babkas now, and dabbled in about 5 of the pork hush puppies. If I left Glasgow tomorrow I would miss Kaf as much as much as anything. A real gem. My go to place when anyone visits as I know it won’t dissapoint. Hats of to you guys, if I ever had a place of my own I’d want it to be like this. So much thought, passion and creativity. It’s just superb. Wish other Glasgow brunch places with huge followings were half as good and we weren’t all so willing to support average food and elevate those that profit from it. If you do one thing in the next month go to Kaf and order the chilli babka. Buy a coffe too. This post will then make sense.

This place doesn’t have many seats but when you get one it’s worth the wait. I have tried three things so far from the brunch menu and they were all delicious. Worth a visit.

I’m a Brooklyn transplant to Glasgow and this wee cafe reminds me of home sweet home. It is REALLY wee! But the coffee and teas are lovely, the food is great and the sweet treats are to die for! I always try to come by when we are in the area!

I go to Kaf on a semi regular basis and every single time they blow me away! Great food, friendly service and fair pricing! The feta babka is my favourite but there are great vegan options and sweet treats too. Only downside is that they're so good it can be tricky to get a table, however it is definitely worth waiting for! Can't say enough good things about Kaf, will forever be my favourite brunch spot in Glasgow!!

You need to try here - the coffee, the food (any/all of it), and the cakes. Wish I lived closer... the garlic bread, oh my word!!

I had heard about the secret menu item through instagram which was an affogato. Now this might not sound like much but when it's made with the finest ice cream and espresso, it goes next level. You have to ask for it though as it's...

Great food and coffee and friendly attentive staff. The place itself is very small with only a few tables but provides an intimate atmosphere. The detail and presentation is excellent and your coffee is served in beautiful ceramics made by local artist Jono Smart.

The food in here is absolute heaven. God bless the chef, literally everything in here is so yummy. Can’t wait to go back.

Excellent service and excellent food, honestly couldn’t be better! It’s a tiny little cafe so be prepared to wait for a table, but it’s worth it :)

I would walk to the ends of the earth for your Danish buns, thank you for blessing my mouth with them.

Coffee tastes like heaven every single time I get one! Well done guys! Makes it one of my faves in the west end. Also just around the corner which makes it an absolute happy place!

Fabulous coffee's and food was amazing. Unfortunately we had neither room or enough days to sample any of the sweet goodies available. We will be back-thanks.

I have been here a number of times now (normally post nightshift!) amd it is without doubt the best brunch I have ever had!!! We went this morning and had the chorizo hash with padron peppers and egg and it was incredible!!!!!! Finally a restaurant...

A cafe that serves proper leaf tea will get 5 stars from me. And if there’s a great cake to go with it then that’s perfection

Nice small coffee shop with attractive cakes and pleasant staff...we took ours outside on a sunny winter morning and savoured truly excellent coffee.

Just amazing amazing food,service lovely and fresh and looks as good as it tastes take all my friends visiting Glasgow and it never disappoints staff are lovely and have the good Scottish banter and yeh it's just really good Hugh quality fresh food that you...

Best coffee in the West End (possibly Glasgow). The menu never disappoints but let me save you the hassle of trying to decide ... You're going to want to go for the salt beef. Spoiler alert. It will change your life.

I don't understand how the terrible-egg-place-that-shall-not-be-named always comes up first for brunch on tripadvisor whilst Kaf has so few reviews. Kaf does the best coffee in Glasgow, hands down. The baristas are friendly (a rarity, i tend to find; the rest too cool for school)....

I was recommended to go here and sample their wares so I went along on two consecutive mornings for breakfast. The presentation was phenomenal,good for instagram but let’s examine the content. The first time I had the latkes.The portion is simply too big and because...

We were specifically looking to visit a nearby cafe but were redirected to this spot by a local. So happy we did! Friendly little spot with phenomenal homemade breakfast and scrumptious sweets....

great menu, very creative, very unique, awesome coffee, great staff. It’s eveything you want from a brunch/lunch. So so good. So many thing I love about what they are serving and it’s really good value. I’ve been 9 or 10 times now. Shame it’s so...

Excellent place for brunch or coffee and a cake. It's very small and gets really busy so it's really just luck if you can get a table. The Scandi breakfast place is amazing - a bit different and it feels like endless eating so it's...

Found this place in the Scottish independent coffee guide and it was well worth the visit. It was easy to find and we got parked outside and ordered coffee and breakfast. Boh where fantastic. The menu isn't huge but I had the eggs "benny" which...

Had a nice chat with the owner and the flat white was tasty. Great for picking up coffee on the go or for sitting outside

Saw a savoury babka special on instagram and made the trip and it was so worth it ! Unbelievable highly recommend! Coffee however was too bitter for my taste but will return for the food ! Staff lovely too

Firstly the coffee; definitely the best in the West single origin espresso from a variety of origins, smooth and strong and expertly sourced. Served in pottery cups reminiscent of those coveted in Japan. Everything is baked and cooked freshly in the kitchen by proper chefs/bakers...

Got sandwiches and cake to take away today and was so disappointed......very bland sandwich fillings, and bread way too thick. One sandwich had avocado, and it was really only a very thin spread in sporadic patches.....bacon way too hard, lacking taste. The price of £5...

Or timeless food for all generations. It is what it is, a great place to eat. It is an expanded breakfast concept, or a one size fits all brunch venue or a place where you can take friends with all kind of food inclinations, from...

We had such a lovely brunch at Kaf after managing to grab the outside table. It's alternative brunch menu is much better than your standard eggs Benedict. The Scandi plate was amazing, and so filling! The staff were nice and helpful as well. I've been...

I was recommended to try Kaf by a friend ion Ross-on-Wye - and I am most grateful for the recommendation. The espresso was memorable - a Colombian coffee produced by Craft House roasters in Sussex - using a La Marzocco machine. Great on day one...

Lovely place to go for some breakfast. 4 of us are here on Saturday morning and whilst seating is limited (get here early) it was clearly popular from the number of folk taking out coffee and pastries etc. We had a range of breakfasts between...

You know a place is good when you’re hesitant about telling everyone because you know it will become super popular... my boyfriend and I had the vegan Scandi breakfast here and were speechless at how delicious, versatile, nutritious and filling it was. From veggie haggis...

We were passing and popped in on spec for a coffee around lunch time. However when we saw the food menu we decided to eat and were served extremely tasty , fresh and imaginative plates of food. We will be back soon. Must be one...

Coffee is great. On par with best in Scotland. My wife and child also enjoyed brownies. Staff is nice. They let us order and stay for a few minutes after the closing time, on a rainy day.

I just love cafe's. Particularly, all the names and pet titles that they possess. Some are rather horridly titled and basic, others being exotically named; Verde Sunrise, Mountain Majestique, etc. So when I saw this place months ago, I wasn't exactly sure what to make...

With the pram in toe I was going to take away latte but glad the wee lad woke up as I sat in and ate a haggis (veg) egg, spinach and chutney roll that was class. Kaf has a few Scandinavia (Iceland) inspired breakfast things...

Great food and coffee. Really impressed with the veggie options. So lovely to have a good quality but unusual lunch. Would be back in a flash!

Go there few times a week to pick up my coffee. I've sampled a few places in West End now and have to say this one wins it. Haven't tried much food there so can't really comment. Had a bacon roll once, was nice.

The tasty coffee is only excelled by the excellent sandwiches. Try the french toast, it is a game changer. The place is quite small, the staff is very friendly. Waiting for a table definitely pays off.

Great wee find my wife and I had a coffee and cake.The coffee was lovely and the cakes made on the premises were superb we had the coconut cake the best cake I have tasted in years.The staff were nice as well.give it a try

Recently opened, and what a place! Fantastic coffee, amazing baking and a sort of all day breakfast thingy for £8 which had me set up for a whole day. Really friendly staff, and a couple of small tables outside for the fine weather. Can't recommend...
