What a find, was first cafe I came to. I looked in and was busy at 2pm on Tuesday, and a bonus is serves Equie's ice cream. I enter the cafe and was asked straight away what I would like, they showed me to a table. The Staff were very friendly and eager to help as I'm in a wheelchair, the staff and cafe was extremely clean, with staff cleaning as they go. The food was great and didnt have to wait long for food to arrive and food was hot, I could not find any fault what so ever a real gem of a find on my visit to Hamilton. Just a shame they only allow you to give 5 stars 🌟

The cafe is sparkling clean greatly priced but above all else no cost cutting on food quality .i never rate unless the place is highest of standers . There are so many cafe in this area but this is the one .

Have been frequenting this cafe at least twice a month always find the food top notch and the staff are very friendly and polite. The atmosphere in the cafe is very chilled although due to the high standard in food it is always very busy but still very enjoyable. Can’t believe some of the negativity in the comments as it’s not how I have ever found it but some people just like nothing better than an exaggerated moan. See you all soon 👍

Had the misfortune to order a Chilli chicken panini in this establishment which I sent back because some of the chicken was partially raw. Instead of offering a replacement, manager tried to tell me I was imagining it!! Extremely rude staff who seem to spend their time calling customers pernicious names. Why are they in business? Do not recommend at all.

Very disappointed. My partner and her disabled mum came to the cafe, which they have previously enjoyed. They waited 15 minutes for a menu and after having their small order of soup and sandwich placed, waited 25 minutes patiently. After this a girl asked if they had their food to which my partner said no. Another 15 minutes passed and my partners mum had to go to a hair dressing appointment, so my partner asked to pay for her drinks and cancel the food. As a chef I understand sometimes you can be behind and take time to prepare the food, this isn't an issue. However, after asking to cancel the food, 4 of the staff became very aggressive with my partner and had the brass neck to say they hadn't waited long. They tried to pressure her to keep the order even though my partner asked to cancel. I find this extremely unprofessional and disgusting behaviour. Because of something that could have been resolved by cancelling the order and apologising, you have now lost 2 regular customers. Shame on the staff working 19/08/2023.

Found this Cafe when arrived in Hamilton for overnight stay and looking for lunch. Were welcomed by staff who were really friendly, and could not fault the food. The woman who served the coffees to us had them that full to top of the cup, that she made us laugh trying to get them to our table without spilling a drop. Lovely staff and food at reasonable price, and excellent coffee.

Went in for lunch we weren’t disappointed. Staff were lovely and friendly, even though they were absolutely run of there feet. People were queuing waiting for tables. This didn’t faze staff, they got on with it with a smile on their face. Food was piping hot and plenty of it. Will definitely be back

A true hidden Gem just behind Asda in the lower precinct. Went with my wife and 3 kids for Saturday lunch. Staff were great really looked after us and made every effort to accommodate us, as kids can be a little demanding at times. Home made soup , Macca and Chips for the kids, they loved it. All day breakfast is a must, Mega plate of food and great value . Great choices and lollies and crisps for the kids on leaving! My kids loved it, so we are a happy family .....will be back very soon 👍🏽

We entered the café 4 mum's with 4 babies (all 19/20 months old) on a horrible rainy day... Dubious of whether we could find somewhere willing and able to take us we were delighted to be greeted with welcoming arms by all the staff. They entertained the babies, fed us wonderfully and quickly with home made delicious grub, and helped with our circus both entering and packing up. We will most definitely make this our regular meet up spot. Thank you!

I am over here a few times a week for a cup of coffee and some gluten-free cake. Great service, friendly staff and tasty coffee/cake. I have not eaten anything other than cake here but see the same faces whenever I am in, all enjoying their meals. I would be extremely surprised the cafe gets the level of repeat business that I have seen without offering good food.

Having never been in Hamilton town centre before, I came across this cafe by chance and now have visited it 3 times. The staff are so friendly and everything is fresh and tasty. The home made chicken broth is to die for.....they even do a pensioners meal which changes daily. I had macaroni cheese,chips,peas, a mug of tea AND a cake , all for £5.50. All the meals are cooked fresh. I have to visit Hamilton twice a week now so I know where I'll be going for my lunch.

The cafe is in decline ,took a little longer than usual to be served. Staff that were making the sandwiches were putting both their has in and grabbing the food with their bare hands ,no gloves on .Then noticed one member who was preparing the food,lick her finger ,then proceed to make sandwiches.

The waiting staff forgot half our order, naturally it was our fault. Honestly just admit it instead of utter tosh bout the griddle being full, when you had served half our order already, unless of course you cook things in advance and reheat?

Me visita este café al menos dos veces a la semana como he bye negocios cerca. El lugar siempre está impecable y el personal te hace sentir bienvenido. Hay un montón de ofertas, pero mi favorito es el sopas caseras, estos cambios semanales pero con un gusto exquisito y muy casero. Mis compañeros nunca había estado antes y ahora locales, y otros miembros de la oficina todos los días! Se han gastado una fortuna mejorando el sitio, así que es mejor que en visitas anteriores, no me puedo quejar y estoy de Glasgow

I visit Hamilton once a month to meet friends and was not aware of this little gem. Next visit will be with my mum as she will love the food and atmosphere. Do yourself a favour and go visit when in the area. You will not be disappointed.

I have used this cafe for personal and business coffees and meals for the past few years. I have watched this grow from a small limited cafe to thriving business with great staff and an owner who takes pride in all matters relating to food, hygiene and above all, service!They have made huge investments on making this place a popular venue for ALL parties, Mums with Toddlers, disabled and elderly patrons. The staff are clean and well presented and only have praise for the Lady owner. They enjoy a tip sharing facility and staff nights out to ensure a well rounded balance of management and staff! I can't praise this cafe enough and find the latest comments totally untrue and smack of personal vindictiveness from some poison individuals. Try for yourself and test the food and service and then make a judgement.

I was in recently, and the manager and an employee were having a shouting match! Truly ruined my coffee experience, but if the employee was to be believed, she was only being paid £5 p/h in cash, which explains why the place isn't very functional!!

The place was clean and the staff were polite enough if a bit hopeless. They had sold out of the soup we wanted, they didn't tell us about extra charges for the food. The food was edible but not a lot than that. The soup was way too salty and the meat on the breakfast was cheap and not very appetising and worst of all they forgot my coffee!!! Cheap enough though if that's your main concern.

We popped in here on the way to the hospital, on entering there was two food desks which was confusing. Once we found our seat we thought it was self service, but noticed everyone else was being served except us! On approach there was at least five workers behind the desk who looked at me, not one bothering to ask me anything! Once I had placed our order (club sandwich and sausage beans n chips) one of the workers came up asking for the money for the chips which hadn't been charged. The food was ok, not great. The sausages had been cut in half which I think is due to the fact of unconfidant cooking and the club sandwich was really dry! Now I'm not saying any of it was inedible but I don't think we'd go back. The table next to us (regulars) were moaning too. Not our cup of tea to be fair but all that was opened at that time in Hamilton.

We waited for a while until the girls stopped chatting to be served. We ordered our food and then promptly got the bill after ordering. Bizarre, I've never had that in my life before. We got two dirty glasses for the cans of juice. Excellent value at £4 for a small breakfast which was lovely. Lots of yummy cakes to choose from. Great spot for lunch just a shame about the service.

Went into the limelight cafe section on Saturday with a colleague for a sandwich and had the full breakfast as it looked delicious , it was the best breakfast I've had outside a hotel standard meal. We went to Dobbies for the same today the 3rd of August and it wasn't a patch on Limelights food, presentation and friendly atmosphere and at half the price! Would highly recommend it to any in the area looking for quality and value for money.

The food was fairly nice here and the environment was really friendly. The staff seemed to busy to take our order and didn't even give us a glass to drink out juice, just given cans. I also asked for no salad with my meal and when it came it had the salad on it, the coleslaw on which was all over my toastie, therefore ruining it. Wouldn't recommend.
