Muffin Break in South Lanarkshire

The freshly baked muffins are huge and utterly delicious. They also have a wide range of syrups for flavoured coffees as well as other hot and cold drinks. There’s a god selection of sandwiches, wraps, panini, etc as well as a few other cakes. The service is good, though it can get very busy - a testament to how good it is.

OMG. My partner and I had dreadful breakfast rolls served to us. Eggs were like leather - we asked them to be flipped, the bacon was ok but the roll itself was so dried up, burnt and cut my mouth. We just left and will never be back

Nice coffee but dirty floors and tables slow to get cleaned off. Seats ripped and the cafe is looking dirty and tired.

Incredible deal got a £1 m&m muffin proper bargain best muffin in center thanks muffin break really nice

this place is perfect for a catch up with friends. definitely best coffee in town. staff always very friendly & efficient

Best coffee too!. Love Muffin Break and the staff.. so friendly andalways take the time to talk. Try the mud cake, heated with cream.. delicious!

Visited at the weekend with my mother-in-law who uses a wheelchair. Staff were very attentive and made sure she was comfortable. They genuinely seem to care about their customers and everyone was very smiley and friendly. Lovely cake and coffee too!

Stopped here for a cappuccino and a muffin while in the centre, thoroughly enjoyed it. Nice frothy coffee and a fresh muffin, and very friendly staff. Would most certainly return.

Popped in here for lovely muffins plus tea/coffee with my daughter. Happy and helpful staff made out visit really relaxing

Always cheerful staff and very clean, food lovely. Coffee is delicious as are the fresh muffins. Would recommend

I think the tea served here is the best in the shopping centre and their muffins are brilliant.....they have a good gluten free and dairy free selection. It’s nice and open....easy to take the buggy to and there is a big interactive screen opposite that will keep the wee ones amused while you finish your coffee

If you need a nice break this is the place for a lovely muffin break. This was a nice change for me as I was doing a bit of shopping. The staff were very friendly and helpful what more can you ask for. Great stuff I will be back. Cheers

We stopped off here during our recent shopping trip and had coffee, tea and muffins...all of which were excellent! we will be back!

Bought a orange chocolate muffin for £2.10 and it tasted as if it was brown dough , plus it had no filling in the centre - just lots of dough . Not good . Also had choc crispy cake which the crispies were stale and the very dark choc was soft like melting , normally hard . Anyway it was not a new box of rice crispies they used . First visit and not returning .

me nd the wife stopover here nd wind down wi a coffee nd cake to start our day ; luv this place ,al be back

Just saw this place while on the way out from the mall. Thought of getting some cake slices as a fake away. Ordered 6 cake slices. Expected a nice packing for those, but what I got was slices wrapped in paper plate and in a plastic bag. Disappointment? Yes!But I am not ignoring the fact that the service was awesome. Liked the people there. Welcoming...Cakes are ok. Would recommend the Strawberry cheesecake.

First time here. Good choice of eats - lots of muffins too. I had a cappuccino and a blueberry muffin. They were both ok - nothing great. Service was friendly enough and the place looked clean. Probably wouldn’t rush back as there are so many nearby options.

Went today as part of my birthday treat. Latte was okay but muffins dry. I was recommended the apple cinnamon one and it was dry and not nice. I got a chocolate one instead and this was also dry. I have had many different types of muffins in the past most are usually from supermarkets as pack of hours and honestly have to say supermarket ones are far superior than the dry muffins I had today. I was pretty hungry and only managed to eat less than half of the muffin. My wife took a bit and was disappointed too and also felt too dry... I phoned contact number on website and informed them at 1433 today and the man I spoke to just apologised. To be honest I expected better customer service and most would of offered some form of compensation but none offered. I had joined there loyalty programme today and gave the man my loyalty card number to remove me from database. I won't be back.

We visited here recently and it was a great experience! We chose two different wraps to share and both were delicious! We love coffee but hate a very strong, bitter experience so asked as we ordered - what a lovely server - wish I'd got her name!! She made us Americano coffees with one shot but added two small jugs with the extra shot should we require part or all of the second shot!! We have been all over the world but never before been provided with this solution!! Top marks to your barista on the 22nd August!!

Always have our coffee here when in EK. I absolutely love their apple and cinnamon muffins and loads of other tasty treats available too. Good loyalty card scheme offered too, when after six hot drinks you get one free.

Always a great choice of muffins and other cakes and savoury food. Lovely coffee and very friendly staff!

staff too busy chatting. stood for nearly 10mins just for the girl behind the counter to make mine tea, no offer of me to take a seat and they would bring it over just left standing there while the staff finished there conversation. more than half the tables were dirty and needed clearing away.

Detenido en Magdalena de descanso para tomar un café con mi marido durante un viaje de compras a principios de enero. Teníamos un café con leche, un pan de jengibre con leche, pan de plátano y una botella de agua. Los cafés eran fantásticos, como siempre, y el pan de plátano era excelente (de mis favoritos). Visita como de costumbre con un personal amable, encantadora zona de descanso relajante ambiente renovado, y precios razonables. Incluso nos dieron un café gratis utilizando nuestra tarjeta de puntos. Gran cafetería que yo recomendaría probar si las compras en EK

Elegí este pequeño lugar a menudo. Tengo mi tarjeta de puntos. Es relajante buen lugar para desenchufarse "café" y un muffin deliciosos y otros productos horneados. Hay mucho donde elegir. Dulces también disponibles. El personal siempre es amable y servicial. Asientos cómodos y puedes pasar un rato viendo el mundo pasar. Pruébelo.

Great place for lunch or just a coffee and catch up. Fantastic choice of muffins and other sweet treats. Friendly staff and love the decor!

Just love this tearoom on East Kilbride. Plenty of choices and the staff are all very friendly. Everything is so fresh and great variety of joy good too we visit couple of times per week and also our friends always go there too

Great wee place for a cuppa & a treat. Nice airy friendly feel, lots of options to choose from sweet & savoury. Great suduko puzzles on the back of their flyers, kept me busy for a few hours!

went here on a visit to the centre ;enjoyed my coffee nd cake early in the morning and great service too ..al be back

Went for a snack lunch at my favourite after being away for a while and WOW they have a new look, a BIG make-over has happened. The same wonderful faces greeted me and I got the same great treatment, it's like walking into a friends or family place. The redecoration is well thought out and not with garish loud colours, the wall menu's are plain to see and the whole effect is one of comfort to browse, people watch (my main occupation) and just let the world go by.Thank you Muffin Break for making my day.

If you fancy a coffee in the midst of your shopping trip, then you won't go far wrong here. Always welcomed with a smile and the coffee is fantastic.

Been using this cafe for years and it is presently undergoing a spruce up. Looking fwd to seeing it when finished. Serves a great selection of Muffins as you would expect and pan inis, scones, cakes and toasties. Coffee always too my taste. Staff always engaging and friendly. The bucket seats, of which there are only a few may be looking a bit old but they are really comfy and always in demand. You could sit in them for ages.Attended with elderly parent in wheelchair which didn't pose any sort of problem - plenty of space. Accessible toilets through the back

Have to say think I've found my new place for a treat move over Costa Have never been in before till last weekend the panini was great defo order another and as for the cake they all looked so good ended up with a carrot cake which was nice will defiantly be back for more

Popped in to Muffin Break and was delighted with the choices on offer. Thoroughly enjoyed the tuna wrap, latte and such helpful and friendly staff. Thank you everyone at Muffin Break.

really helpful people behind the counter make sure you have a good experience. Also make use of your Muffin Break cards to get the free hot drinks and a free muffin on your birthday month.

I know I've reviewed this place before but I can't get enough of the place. Now they are having a promotion on filled and toasted Turkish Bread, I had the Chicken Salsa and it was delish. As always I'll go on about their coffee, truly rich and flavoursome. The staff (Including management let me say), are like close friends. A great place to go to relax and watch the denizens of East Kilbride wander around and/or enjoy the Muffin Break too.

Went with a friend and I had a capocinno and a fruit scone. The woman serving shouted "any hot drinks" before I had even reached the counter. I was looking at the scones and deciding what to have and felt this was a bit rude. I moved to the counter having quickly decided what to have only to wait while she made coffees for another customer so I didn't get the rush to order. My total came to just under £5.00! The scone was stodgy and dry so I should have taken it back but its something I hate doing. My friend ordered a toastie and tea (hers came to £7.85) and we were told to sit down. The assistant then came out with a sour face and handed it to my friend without a word or a smile. I wouldn't rush to go back and would advise a crash course in customer service for the staff.

Always enjoy my morning Chamomile and Fruit scone. Lovely staff, very friendly. Ideal place to meet friends.

Me, I'm normally a costa or Starbucks drinker, there everywhere and easily accessible. Today I met my friend for a coffee, she suggested muffin break and I thought I'd give it a go and worse case scenario is have a water. However i was pleasantly surprised and very happy to see that not only do they cater for dairy free diet with soya milk but they do dairy free muffins. It's been a long time since I've had a cake with my coffee after changing to dairy free diet... I enjoyed having a muffin today and I will not hesitate to skip Starbucks and Costa and enjoy my coffee at muffin break. I'm converted.

Went in here to grab a quick lunch, and was stunned at the vast selection of muffins and flavour combinations, I had a bacon and Brie toasted sandwich which was delicious. A wee hidden gem!,

Regular customer to this establishment and have found no faults on an any occasion . Staff are friendly, polite and the service is excellent. Good to see that bacon rolls have been introduced. A great variety of muffins and the banana bread and fruit toast are delicious. Always very clean and tables cleared promptly. Well done muffin break staff for running a tight ship!

What a delight it is to be served by these friendly young people. Welcomed as if you are an old friend. They have a loyalty card and every 6th cup of your favourite beverage is free. I usually have the coffee and have a cream on the side. Lovely coffee, not bitter like some but smooth and strong flavoured. The toasties are well filled and varied and a choice of white or brown breads. The cleanliness here is second to none. Well done Muffin Break, a sure winner.

Clean,pleasant environment with great coffee and the most amazing Muffins and the staff are nice friendly attentive it is well laid out and spotless

Really good coffee, a good variety of freshly baked muffins, scones, cakes, sandwiches, toasties etc... Warm friendly atmosphere and pleasant staff.

There isn't anything wrong with this place, they have a loyalty card system of a free coffee once in a while. Staff are very attentive and the have a great table cleaning system in there, In that sense they could teach Costa a thing or two on that score.

My son who is 17yrs old starting his first part time job with muffin break in st Enoch's Glasgow, disappointingly my son was sacked in his second shift which he volunteered to work to help muffin break out because they sacked the person the day before, my son unaware as he was told she walked out. My son was sacked because he was told he didn't work fast enough all he was aloud to do was load and unload the dishwasher got into trouble for stacking cups wrong when he was hired he was told he would be serving customers not doing dishes this company should be ashamed of themselves treating young people this way is awful it's hard for young people without being took advantage of.

Wouldn't advise or in courage any one to work here as the way staff are treated isn't good. On your first day you load and unload the dish washer in 2minute cycles each time, inbetween that you had to hand wash the blender jug and lid, trays, anything that can't be washed in the dish washer, clean and clear tables and talk to customers as they leave or enter the store. You get a list of things you must say and can't say such as "can I get you anything?" Or "next" you can't say this. The customer service staff were lovely but the staff in the black t-shirts wouldn't give you a minute you couldn't do right from wrong. The training staff would tell you your doing things correctly then tell management behind your back you weren't working hard enough. Where I worked myself and another member of their staff that I know of we're sacked within 2 days of working for them for the same thing which was "Not working hard enough."

A great wee place for coffee . Great service friendly staff and consistently good coffee . Also a great loyalty scheme to build up a free coffee . Only downside feel that they need to replace the trays - a bit tired looking !

I go in there all the time, the coffee is very good the best in East Kilbride in my view, and the scones are delicious plus the staff are friendly and very pleasant.

Religiously visit Muffin Break every week for a family coffee. The cakes are fantastic (perhaps a bit expensive) and the coffee is one of the best around. Staff are friendly and you get more of a 'local' feel rather than visiting one of the big chain coffee stores. Worth a visit for a coffee, cake and/or scone! Also do a points card where you get free hot drinks after so many purchases.

We went for a walk in East Kilbride on 2nd January just to get out and blow off a few cobwebs. Fancying a cup of coffee we were delighted to find the Muffin Break open. The coffee was excellent. I had a smoothie which was delicious. Hubby had a cheese toasty which was amazing and I was seduced by the best cheese scone I've ever tasted. The service was friendly and it was busy with a lively vibe. Well worth a return visit.

Just popped in for a coffee whilst I was in the shopping centre in East Kilbride. Lovely coffee and very pleasant and helpful staff. Plenty of seating both within and outwith the cafe. Pleasant atmosphere, will definitely be back when I am in the area.

Decided to try somewhere different and was pleasantly surprised. The coffee was on par with other chains and I loved the muffins. Definitely would return.

Went here for a lovely coffee and scone and could not fault the variety of food which is terrific. The staff are what makes this a such pleasant place.

This was a great find the coffee and cakes are wonderful, hot and fresh. There is no fuss and the staff are friendly. Worth a visit to break up a shopping trip and refresh the body.
