NowNow Cafe in West Lothian

Coffee and Bueno brownie were so good 😍 staff were super friendly and fast service 👍

Lovely lunchtime sandwich and the nicest caramel milkshake ever! Looking forward to coming back for another 😋, wish I'd taken a before photo rather than an after.

Authentic Bunny chow and prego roll. Home away from home with the best vibe and most Authentic aromatic Soutj Afeican food

Unique. Probably the best breakfast you can find in Centre

Food was over priced for what you get and nothing special, but what was disappointing was listening to the waitress “targeting” older people by saying to them when paying the bill “would you like me to round that up as the bill doesn’t include a service tip” what a cheek and if people want to leave a tip they will. Noticed she didn’t try it with younger customers… shocking and because of this we won’t be back. Not accommodating to smaller appetites either was abruptly told the menu is what it is and cannot be changed!

1st time here, and it was amazing, I would not hesitate to recommend this place. Great selection of food and the staff are super friendly and very helpful. Will be back xx

Being a SA in Scotland, what better place to get the taste of "home". The food is always incredible, service is quick and friendly. Staff go out of their way to fulfil all your expectations. I felt at home, like visiting a friend and to also making new SA friends dining. Will definitely be my go to place. It's just "lekker" 😊

Was not happy with the wait before being seated even though there were plenty of empty tables, some of the staff were staying clear of seating us (inexperienced) the food is far too expensive for nothing special. Won't be back

Very good. Excellent service and great food

Despite being very busy and a few people before us in the queue we were seated very quickly. I was there for brunch and had a roll on haggis. The roll was lovely, the haggis top quality but the roll did not appear to have been buttered so was slightly dry. However I have been before and will go again but I will ask for the roll to be buttered and given the calibre of service I'm sure my request won't be am issue.

Had the apple cinnamon sort of a muffin and it was very moist and delicious!!! Sadly the carrot cake was. Bit on the dry side. Staff were all super friendly and eager to assist even though it was closing time, they still accommodated us.

Altogether a great experience. Will go again soon.

What a fabulous find …. This cafe provides everything you would want … fabulous food, extremely pleasant staff, great value… we never have a trip into Livingston without a visit … keep up the good work guys, love it 🥰

That was a perfect choice to go for a breakfast. Very tasty panini, kind and lovely service and perfect coffee. I will be back to try some more delicious options.

There are lovely cafe, very nice staff care everyone, great coffee and good food

Absolutely phenomenal find X food was exceptional as was the friendliness of the staff. Kid friendly. Highly recommend

Absolutely delicious food and drinks. I tried honey musturd chicken salad and turmeric latte. Amazing. The staff were so welcoming and helped me with my dog (allowed when carried only) when the hot weather surprised us and the little dog got extremely thirsty.

Very good food at reasonable price

Visited today, had such a warm welcome from the staff. Perfect place for gluten free food, lots of options and the apple pie was absolutely delicious!!

visited today and latte was burnt , i kindly asked for replacement, the most arrogant member of staff laughed in my face basically telling me that it can not be burnt, I have never received such disrespecftul arrogance in all my life

Great vide and place to relax while enjoying the coffee and food.

I wanted to get a morning coffee and made the best decision to go here. Got an oat cappuccino for takeout, done really well.

Fantastic food, reasonable prices, and friendly staff

My mum and I got a tea pot for two. It came in a lovely tea set (as seen in photo) and was delivered with smiles on the servers faces. For food I had the soup of the day, lentil soup, and it was gorgeous. On the larger side serving wise for me, but I don’t eat much. I was fighting with myself to try finish it because I was enjoying it so much. My mum had a macaroni and cheese, it was delicious and just the right amount for her. I 100% recommend, friendly attentive staff and a wonderful atmosphere. Not to mention the amazing food.

Faultless, friendly personable service. Delicious food...we.will be back!

Just had an absolutely stunning lunch here, absolutely 100% beautiful! Very glad that we took the time to stop in for a bite to eat. The staff are very friendly, attentive and welcoming, and the whole place had such a unique and cool vibe that was really relaxing. 11/10 would recommend any day of the week!! :) already looking forward to coming back!

We met up with fellow SA friends at NowNow Cafe and we were pleasantly surprised by how tasty their food and service were, I will definitely recommend them to anyone. 10/10

Lovely, friendly service. Best service in a cafe in the area that we have had for a long time. Great food and very accommodating for gluten free options (any toastie or sandwich can be made gf).

Took hubby and my 2 teenage boys for lunch at Now Now. Despite it being very busy, the service was excellent and the staff were very friendly, helpful and a real credit to the cafe. The food was delicious and very fairly priced. Would definitely recommend and will absolutely be back 😊

Brilliant cafe,meals are delicious, staff are friendly and helpful

Very welcoming and food lovely. Always ho in for a scone, jam, cream and latte

Wasn't sure what to write for this but I think all it needs is amazing loved it

12.30 and no baked potatoes or waffles available

Really lovely cafe with fantastic staff. Good selection of vegan food. Recommended!

Very cosy and quaint little cafe in Livingston. First time me and my partner have been and it's a gorgeous little place with lovely tasty food as well as very friendly staff who are on the ball if you need anything. We will be returning ❤️

Lovely cafe, good service, amazing food! Love coming here

Great Food staff are lovely. Please bring back the pulled pork roll 😫 I miss it

Great independent cafe, with delicious food and excellent service from Gail and the team. This was our second visit, while we were taking my daughter shopping for her birthday. As such her chicken nuggets arrived with birthday candles. Great South African food here too and there are so my lovely touches like the varied tea sets. Wouldn't go anywhere else now when we come to shop in Livingston!

This cafe is unbelievable The staff are funny friendly and so helpful in every way The food is delicious no matter what we have had to eat and we go back whenever we can

Excellent cafe, I really must say that the staff are exceptionally polite and well trained. It's really a breath of fresh air to how good the service is compared to other places, a real credit to manager. .. Well done!.

Best Scottish Breakfast so far.

Superb, food is fantastic. Nice friendly staff

First class service and great choice of food.

Alway a pleasure to eat here. Food is fantastic and the staff are lovely

Had lovely afternoon tea with family. Everything was excellent service,food & surroundings & prices. Absolutely couldn't fault it.

Very good service and lovely staff so friendly would recommend

Fantastic cafe in Livingston. Coffee is really superb & food is of amazing quality. The staff are very friendly and accommodating.

The best restaurant in Livingston for breakfast! Quality and tasty food, very nice customer service. Really recommended ♥️

Such a lovely place. Staff is really nice and helpful. Loads o vegan options and food is simply delicious. We didn't wait long and service was swift. Highly recommend.

This is a perfect place to eat if you're shopping, or of you just want to eat! The food and drinks here are to die for and all the staff are polite and professional. They have a wide range of food that can accommodate to people with allergies aswell. Everyone needs to come here at least once in their life!!

Great menu, great staff very friendly. Would definitely recommend

Have you ever tried a Prego Roll? Oh you simply must, but don't just go anywhere for it, go to NowNow. Prego, is a very traditional South African / Portugese dish of very spicy fried steak. The one that I had here really tasted like home. Can't wait to have my next one.

This place is an absolute diamond, everything about it is superb. It's a family run business and such a refreshing change. It's very welcoming and the staff are so caring, you can tell that every single one of them is passionate about their business. Their food is amazing too, everything is made with love and it shows. If you are shopping and need somewhere to eat, go and sit down in a warm and welcoming environment, and eat some great food. You won't be disappointed

Great venue with brilliant and amazing staff.

Fantastic Cafe ,Had the full Scottish Breakfast can quite honestly say this was the best quality Haggis and Black pudding I’ve eaten in a long time food is always prepared fresh and presented properly,staff are warm and welcomed attentive,couldn’t fault anything ,great experience will be back soon .

Best wors roll I've had in Scotland. The owner is lovely and staff are awesome! Was like a trip back SA. Even left with a box of pronutro. Really really Great experience !

It’s been a year since we were last here. So glad we came back, very convenient for mum in wheelchair fitted into table for 3 of us in front part of cafe, this appealed to mum gave her opportunity to people watch to see if she saw any familiar faces as she doesn’t get to centre on her own anymore and has been coming up to centre for 40+ years. Such pleasant staff and owner very welcoming, sorry didn’t get young woman’s name wore glasses and had coloured tied back hair. Anyway on to important facts, good menu, plenty of choices. Mum enjoyed a bowl of homemade soup with morning roll, husband had macaroni with garlic bread and side of chips which he said was tasty and I had an enjoyable Worst sausage on roll also with chips which didn’t really need but enjoyed. I enjoyed my flat white coffee unfortunately had no space for dessert or cakes. This came to a very reasonable cost and all were very satisfied with food and service in this popular cafe. Makes coming to Centre worthwhile.

Wow the girl that served my colleague and myself really made my day , she was so happy and very friendly and had a smile to melt anything, she's an absolute asset to you , didn't get her name , but she had dark hair and glasses such a beautiful human being

Best choice ever! The staffs are very friendly, the food came very quickly, warm, and delicious. I ordered a beef burger with salad and fries. My husband ordered beef and caramelised onions baguette. We wanted desserts, but the food is so well served that wasn’t space in our belly for more food. We will need to come back definitely to try the desserts and eat again the delicious food we had. 😋

Frequent visitor to livingston and never went in previously. First time and will not be our last. Gluten free options fantastic and food amazing.

Omfg best place to come for food . I love coming here. The Service us absolutely amazing 100% recommend now now cafe.

Very good food and nice staff. We come here every week or so.

Bunny chow was amazing, definitely recommend. Sausage roll with chips,

Very friendly staff, a lovely place but unfortunately I can’t say much about the food. Got a baked potato which was brown inside and covered in far too much horrible coleslaw could hardly see the cheese, I sent it back and got a cheese and onion toastie, which wasn’t much better taste less cheese and cost a fortune sorry I won’t be back

This is a hidden gem in Livingston. The food is excellent, high quality and fresh. I had the open New York Deli Pastrami sandwich on sourdough. It has heaps of pastrami, fresh sourdough bread, delicious pickles and red coleslaw on the side. I can thoroughly recommend NowNow. Friendly efficient staff too.

We were encouraged to try Nownow for the breakfast as they really do cater for Gluten free and dairy intolerant people. The breakfast was lovely, my wife also managed to get a roll for a change. Country breakfast was lovely. The cakes were a nice finish. Staff chatted and it was a great atmosphere. Thank you all at Nownow.

10/10 the food and drinks are amazing! And they bring the food in under 20 minutes! If you’re looking for food and drinks quickly this is the place to go.

Ordered cheese and ham toasties here for lunch. Worst toastie I've ever had.. It was cheese and ham with the cheese not melted which made it very dry. The little bit of salad was bland no dressing. Plenty of eating places in Livingston I will not be back.

Wonderfull place to eat staff so friendly really would miss if could not get there

Nice people, nice place, so helpful and kind

Really nice healthy food and good portions. Staff really friendly.

We found ourselves in Livingston for a short period and didn't want to eat at the fast food eateries that are typical of shopping malls. For the first couple of visits, we had coffee and cake which was very nice and the staff were thoughtful in their accommodation of us with our infant child. I really recommend the milkshakes which they will make thicker on request. Honestly, the milkshake was among the best that I have had and I consider myself something of a milkshake connoisseur! For those that like a more grown up drink, my wife recommends the turmeric latte. The mac n' cheese, cheesecake and vegiburger were also very nice. Try and get seated inside if you can for the best atmosphere.

Great food, lovely staff, a wee gem of a place .... Highly recommend

I've been to this cafe a few times and every experience has been positive, the food and drinks have been fantastic and the service is always excellent! The owner goes out of her way to make people feel welcome and if you have kids, they are always welcome and there's colouring with crayons for entertainment. I've had issues with my pram in other cafes, but there's always been room here. There are a few mentions of price in other reviews and while I wouldn't say it's cheap, the quality is excellent! It's not just home-made quality, but pattisserie quality! The coffee is also very good quality!

There are some vegan options. Nice environment, the food was okay.

Food is always great, fantastic service. Lovely people.

Irdered blt bagel and american sandwich. Dry and over cooked bacon. Stale bagel. Stale sourdough bread. Lack of dressing or mayo. Over priced poor quality food. Complained but excuses were given, food not refunded only 1 drink as a gesture...asked for bill and made to wait as a return for complaining. No sorry nor willingness to listen. Real shame!

Always have to visit here when nearby. Great food and good prices.

Vegan options available, only had one dessert option left when we visited but the brownie was really good so I'll allow it! Staff were really friendly and attentive, coffee was really good too. My dining partner rated the warm scone and portion sizes were good for the price.

Loved this place. Food was excellent and the service friendly and competent.

Possibly just a touch on the expensive side, but when food is this good, it doesn't matter.

Delicious breakfast and served by a very attentive, lovely young guy. I thought the food was a bit pricey.

Great place, food is the best you could ask for. Staff are always welcome & very helpful

Went for coffee and a drink of juice with my daughter this morning. Unfortunately there was a barely visible chip in the glass which resulted in a small cut in my lip. The staff were so apologetic..replaced the glass and drink...nulled our bill and handed me a gift voucher for another visit. THIS IS WHAT YOU CALL GOOD SERVICE 👍 I visit Now Now fairly regularly and the food is always fresh and well cooked..staff are attentive and pleasant..definitely worth a visit.....even when something goes wrong, as it sometimes will, they handled the situation in a professional manner..Well done Now Now 😊

Good for lunch. Small portions. Friendly staff.

The burgers are fantastic!! The staff are very friendly and efficient!!

We arrived at 11:27 thinking we still had time to do order a late breakfast before heading back down south but by the time we got attended by one of the staff, it was 11:32. Unfortunately we had to leave without ordering as the breakfast window had closed. The worst part, and the reason for my rating, is that we spent 45mins looking for breakfast/brunch in the local vicinity without any luck and finally decided to carry on with our journey. It was a terrible experience and I appreciate the timing didn't help but it's up to the management on how strict they can be about borderline orders. Apparently, very strict!

Great service, great staff and really good food.

Been here twice now, great food at a reasonable price for the service and quality. Recommend for a quick bite or some lunch.

It's really nice. Took my 13 year old for her birthday and she loved it.

Great atmosphere very friendly staff GF options perfect and we would both definitely recommend . We both had toasties with their secret sauce amazing coldslaw! Best ive ever had honest

This is a great wee place. We all enjoyed it.

Excellent fresh good quality food , staff and owner very friendly. Very personal service.

Myself and my sister were looking for somewhere to eat so decided to try here. We were really looking for some macaroni cheese and by chance, one of the girls (Amy) who was a member of staff over heard and accommodated us by combining children’s portions to make a full portion for each of us. Amy was so friendly as were the rest of the staff and although this was only our first time coming here, we will definitely be back and will also recommend this place to others. I also just want to add the food was incredible (best macaroni cheese about!!)

Judging by the queue at the door, my wife and I decided to drop in. We were not disappointed.

Lovely food as always only issue was the waiter was too eager to take our order. From the minute we sat down it was a constant 'are you ready to order'. Ironically we were not getting a chance to read the menu for asking for waiter to give us time to look.

Lovely little cafe. Very friendly staff.

This is a small cafe but the food is top notch and you don't have to wait ages fast and really friendly Amy is a delight I had a new yorker which was soo ooo nice

Lovely little eatery inside Livingston shopping centre. Staff are lovely and well mannered. Nothing too much trouble. We will be back.

Always a fabulous lunch here. Great staff great service great prices
