The Cottage Coffee Shop, Greenock in Inverclyde

Can be a great place for food as i use it every weekend. But I ordered a breakfast and iced frappe for delivery this week (just out of hospital after an op) and it came to £16 for a breakfast and a milkshake. The brekfast came practically cold and the frappe was melted to basically a milkshake. I know that these things happen but i live literally a 3 min walk away on the same street and they took £4 for delivery and nearly 2 hours to deliver it. Poor service!

Great cafe…. We ate there twice for brunch while staying in Greenock. What a beautiful town. Eggs Benedict on Stornoway black pudding on tattie scones - a real treat….the eggs were poached to perfection…. Smashing staff….

Poor service, waiting ages for 2 coffees! Sitting in getting served and standing outside until all others are served? Not impressed!

Very friendly, helpful staff. Been here a few times and food is always lovely. Place is very clean. Will definitely be back.

Went for breakfast, place is really busy but the atmosphere is amazing, girls are all so friendly and have a smile for everyone, food arrived pretty quickly, I had eggs benedict with Stornoway black pudding and potato scones instead of muffin, partner had a small breakfast with a plain scone for afters, food was amazing and the tea was piping hot. Will return again soon

Popped in for breakfast for the first time - spotless, friendly staff and great food. Big breakfast was tasty and eggs Benedict were fab.

I have been in a few times to the cottage for my breakfast. Excellent food and staff where very helpful being a wheelchair user it's a very spacious place staff made sure I was comfortable where I was sitting could not have been more helpful . 😀

Food was lovely, then a gentleman enters to sit with presumably his son, some 3 footsteps from the door and is interrogated about wearing a mask by one staff member in his face and another shouting from the kitchen. Excruciating. A quiet, 'hi sir, are you exempt from wearing a mask?' would have been appropriate instead of causing the old boy to have a red face in front of many customers. The food is lovely but the service has steadily declined, with an attitude of inconvenience about having to serve people, in particular from the female server of short stature. So glad was only in to spend a Christmas present voucher, we will never return to the cottage get out of the service industry if you can't handle the constant inconvenience of customers.

The service was efficient and carried out with a smile! We had a yummy breakfast which was reasonably priced. Would highly recommend this lovely family run business!

Just had an amazing brunch at the Cottage. Food was amazing, staff as friendly as ever and to top it off the sun was out so we were able to sit outside

Order from here quite a bit and it’s usually exceptional, don’t mind paying a bit extra for decent food Had some family up last night so ordered quite late , food was diabolical but have to give a poor review considering am fizzing about spending nearly £40 pounds for what was delivered. Worst of all was the enchilada, it was a chicken wrap made to look like an enchilada, 100% different from any enchilada I’ve ordered from here or anywhere else Steak sandwich, poor just threw out the door, never been as poor out the cottage. Even the burger I ordered for bland as anything chips white and under cooked. No salad with either meal and no meal got finished One bad experience for that price will see me going elsewhere

Great choice of food could not have asked for any better.Great service this was for a 60th birthday The scones and cakes were amazing especially the clotted cream will definately get this again .

Called in for breakfast after our weekly shop. We were really impressed with the COVID procedures in place and felt safe. The service was prompt, friendly and efficient. The menu was quite varied. My husband chose the chicken burger with chips and I opted for the vegan breakfast. Despite the bistro being quite busy (allowing for social distancing) our meals were served quite quickly and were delicious. It’s been a few years since we visited The Cottage but we will certainly be back soon.

What the title says. The food was excellent, good portions and down to earth pricing. Kids friendly and very considerate and taking measures to keep everyone as safe as possible under current circumstances.

This place is a wee hidden gem and really shouldn't be missed. The staff are just lovely and the food is to die for. Nice cosy and very friendly atmosphere. The sisters who own this place put their heart and soul into making it a lovely experience and pleasure to visit. Wether your looking for tea & cake, a snack, or a full meal they cater for it all and there's even a wee alcoholic beverage if your lucky enough not to be driving. Highly recommended and I will definitely be a regular here.

I have been for coffee, breakfast, lunch so far! So good! Cheap, chearful, warm and friendly. Always busy. Nice place, very clean, well run. I visit the James Watt Marina, it is just across the road.

Have been here several times in recent months, I have been for breakfast and lunch. Both were lovely, yummy food and friendly welcoming staff. The staff appear to know every local person that comes into the restaurant lots of chat and regulars coming and going constantly. You can have a full meal or pop in for a wee snack, nice wooden benches outside for dry days. The restaurant was spotless, you can see right into the kitchen area and the restrooms were also immaculate. Great find will definitely be back regularly.

First visit last week and will definitely be back. Friendly staff. Cosy atmosphere and food is just fab. Added bonus is the reasonable prices. ⭐️⭐️⭐️👍🏻👍🏻

Excellent Service Lovely Place Visited with friends recently for dinner food was delicious and service was exceptional definitely worth a visit

Called in her with a friend after work at 4.30pm.Warm friendly greeting from staff in a bright,very clean Bistro.We ordered a mac cheese with chilli fries,latte and cold drink.Food was clearly freshly made very hot and tasty.Toilets immaculate and well stocked.Home baking looks very tempting as does breakfast menu.This place is so close to where I live it will definitely be a regular haunt for me.Drop in you will not be dissapointed.

The Cottage is a smashing wee cafe. We've been 4 or 5 times now and it never fails to be top notch. The food is excellent, coffee is good and the service is friendly and quick. Highly recommend the chicken enchiladas and the homemade cakes especially.First class.

Delicious food. Excellent service and friendly staff. Very homely and clean. Breakfast served til 3pm.

Small family run business, with a good wide ranging menu.Spotless throughout and staff are very attentive. They have about 40 seats indoors plus some outside for those (fool) hardy enough to sit out in Greenock in the Autumn.It was busy at lunchtime and no wonder, the food is good. We had homemade soup and sandwiches and hot filled rolls, and were tempted by the yummy cakes and scones.Only downside is, that it is a bit out the road beside Pottery Street, so you must make a concious effort to get there.

First time visiting the cottage cafe. Recently taken over by a local family, it’s got that welcoming family feel! We enjoyed a lovely full breakfast with a coffee. The place was clean, food was well presented and not greasy! I would definitely go again and do recommend.

The cottage cafe ticked all the boxes for me and I wanted to leave a review to let others know to stop on by. The place was spotless, the food was delicious and the staff couldn’t be more helpful!We both had the big cottage breakfast with coffee and then the trio of cakes to follow. It came in a timely manner made fresh wasn’t greasy like a lot of places can be. It has a really good menu with plenty of choice and very affordable prices. Il definitely be back soon. The owners also welcomed our little dog with some water and treats. :)

Popped in for a quick coffee and scone today. My mum is very particular but said Nicola could make her coffee any time. Scones were definitely home made and very delicious.

Food lovely , staff very friendly , cosy and clean. Enjoy going there for lunch every couple of months x

Popped in our our way back to Port Glasgow. Hot filled rolls. Mm.mmm ( who supplies your sausages?) Hot delicious coffee and great toasties too. Well done Craig and the team of girls. Love it. We'll be back.

Called in for breakfast before our drive back up to Aberdeen. Husband had juice and a bacon roll, I had scrambled egg, bacon and black pudding with toast and coffee. Coffee first was proper strong just the way i like it, fat cut off bacon which was great, black pudding really crispy outside soft in the middle and scrambled egg did not need seasoning. My husbands only small complaint was roll could have been lightly warmed, but all in all really tasty and set us up for our long drive. Will definitely visit again when we are back visiting the neighbourhood.

Came from the USA on holiday this place was recommended so I thought why not give it a try so went here for breakfast it was excellent, staff was very friendly the chef was awesome, the place was spotless so I was very pleased. Oh make sure to try the scones it was delicious!

Great wee coffee shop :) used to visit a lot don’t get time now because off work but I would recommend great coffee and the eggs benedict is delicious good chat with staff too always really busy but never had a problem being served, would highly recommend for a quick bite :)

Had probably the best breakfast in Inverclyde here with my family food amazing staff brilliant nothing is a problem for them really nice warm place good prices too eat here quite a lot love it

Visited yesterday from Glasgow,a usual haunt now. Great food at excellent prices. Extremely pleasant staff. Spotless.

Came across this cafe by mistake, but it was a great find. When we were there it was a little busy so our food took a while to arrive, but glad to say our baked potatoes were worth the wait.

Myself and two of my travelled down to Greenock for two days, and we were delighted with our portion sizes. Friendly , pleasant staff !

Had delicious poached eggs with black pudding and hollondaise sauce. I'm very fussy about how poached aggs are done and these were the best I've had in a long time. Delivered to our table really quickly and with a smile. My husband had the veggie breakfast and he loved it. Big thumbs up from us!

I am a regular visitor to The Cottage and all of their food is excellent. The staff are also very friendly.

We’re in today 22 nd December 17. Went in for a quick lunch. Got soup and a toastie. Soup was Lentil and very tasty. Cheese toasty. Friend got same. Wee one got child’s portion soup . Very adequate with a crusty roll. She fancied another and it was no problem. We also had drinks and the bill was about £17 which was really good. Service with a smile and even when I asked busy waitress for water for tablets it was brought promptly to table. Right wee busy place and would definitely go back.

The Staff are Friendly and Welcoming, The food is terrific and Great Value, Never had a single complaint. I use it almost daily and really don't remember having a complaint.

Great service with a smile. Food was simple but executed perfectly. Great tea and coffee and very reasonable price wise. Perfect

Popped in for lentil soup and a Ham roll to takeaway. The soup was tasteless and watery. I had a few spoonfuls and left it. The roll was lovely and fresh with one slice of thin ham. Not worth the money.

Went for a family lunch all 4 of us were very impressed. The food is tasty, well presented and reasonably priced. We will be back. The steal sandwich is delicious

Popped in with my wife and cousin for some lunch. Fast, tasty and reasonably priced. We will be back.

Fue en el día de hoy y al menos 5 clientes vinieron y nos fuimos porque nos estaban esperando 5 minutos con nadie. El 50% del tiempo, patatas fritas caseras, no están bajo sándwiches tostados son suficientes. tostado El servicio en general es bueno.

This establishment is highly recommended the staff as very polite and engaging. They are able to adapt meals to suit individuals experiencing swallowing problems, have wheelchair access and disable toilets are available. pricea nd menu is brilliant

Desayuno abundante con 1 rollos sólo £1 y de buena calidad. He probado todas las hamburguesas en el menú, y todos son buenos. Y no más incluyendo patatas fritas de £5. Sándwiches de carne también están bien. Recomiendo ir para un almuerzo rápido.

Fuimos a la hora del almuerzo y fue tan concurrida. Mucha suerte para conseguir una mesa y estaba muy concurrido. Tuve el bistec a la pimienta sandwich y era preciosa. Dado que no había un montón de personal y un par de docenas de clientes,...

Just visiting Greenock for the day and popped into have a coffee, ended up having lunch which was lovely and served by a nice friendly me,her of staff. Extremely helpful and very efficient.....

The cafe is quite small but well laid out. The staff are lovely and it's nice decorated and warm. I struggled with the rating as I went here for lunch but was quite disappointed. It is reasonably priced but the quality was not great. I would give it a 2 for a lunch or snack. The cakes and scones however are a different story. They are fantastic and a great price. I will definitely be back but for a tea and scone rather than a burger or sandwich.

Stopped for breakfast before the ferry to Dunoon. Lovely place with charming staff. £20 for four of us including drinks. Very impressive. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed

Arrived about lunchtime. One of us had a cooked breakfast which was lovely. The other had a tuna panini which was good too. Lovely atmosphere with friendly and efficient staff. Good place to stop off for a bite and it was very reasonably priced compared to our home town of Aberdeen.

Visted the Cottate Café today for a light snack today, ordered chicken noddle soup to carry out which was put into the microwave (bad start).Received to soup after the ding and started walking to the car, tasted the soup and it was cold, took it back in discuss to woman inside told her the soup was cold,got no reaction from her no apology nothing, ask for my money back and walked out.DO NOT TAKE THE SOUP IF IT IS MICROWAVED FROM THE PLACE.

Just stopped off in passing and glad we did.Good coffee, great scones and nice staff. All you could ask really.

Had lunch with a friend afternoon someone told me about this place. The cafe is beside offices and car lots. If you didn't know where it was you would easily drive by it. Parking is a problem. Very busy as there are lots of offices around. Once in, there a country feel to it. Staff very friendly but not over bearing. Menu has an all day breakfast & a vegetarian version. The usual, soups, paninis, toasties etc... Baked potatoes, fish and chips and pasta dishes.You can buy an alcoholic beverage as well as soft drinks,milkshakes , tea and coffee etc....I will definitely be lunching here again.... It's reasonable priced.... We had soup, sandwich, soft drink, tea and cake and was priced at £18 for two.

Friendly, comfortable surroundings. Food was freshly made and delicious. The toilets were spotless. Staff very pleasant and attentive

We popped by here after a game against Morton for a quick snack before heading home. It's a lovely wee café, very clean, with friendly staff, priced decently and great food! We'll definitely be back there when we're next in the area. Would recommend anyone passing through to stop here.

We went here a few weeks ago upon request from my mother-in-law for a birthday lunch. Its nestled in amongst car garages and offices but what an absolute gem of a place.There were 6 of us, and we had a proper feed, I had the haggis burger, and the kids had sandwiches, and my mother in law fish and chips. Everything was cooked to perfection, and the service very prompt and very friendly. They have an excellent wee menu, and the place was very busy for sit in and takeway.A couple of (delicious) cakes and scones later, we had a bill for £33, which for the quality, volume, and standard of food, and service was exceptional. This place is an absolute must! I've only rated the value, food and service at 5/5 because 6/5 wasnt an option

I popped into the Cottage for a spot of lunch and was pleasantly surprised. The staff were so friendly and attentive which is so nice for a change when most cafes are just wanting you in and out quickly. Myself and my husband enjoyed homemade soup and a sandwich which was fresh and tasty and the price was reasonable too. As coffee snobs we were impressed with the flat white coffee and expresso and the choice if cakes were too tempting. The homemade scones and key lime pie were exceptionally good.I would recommend the Cottage and hope they continue to offer good quality food and a friendly service. Well done! I will be back again!

Was in today for a pannini,just a snack,was ok,I ate it in my car outside looked over Wenn I seen the 'chef' jumping inna bin crushing down rubbish thought that was absolutely disgusting Wenn he is suppose to be handling and cooking your food,wont be coming coming that's for sure.

A hidden gem amongst all the car sales stores. Lovely small place with a great selection of hot and cold foods, snacks as well as cakes etc. Lovely for lunches or morning coffee / tea. Very friendly staff and excellent service.
