The Fairfull Collection in Renfrewshire

Big breakfast arrived after approximately 15 min. Basically it was cold served with a burnt potato scone which somehow was warm. Ate what I could then gave up, cancelled my drink, complained paid and left very unhappy

The staff were very friendly. The food was absolutely the best we had had in our Scotland visit. The portions amazing, a basket of chips and a couple of onion rings with a green salad, beet salad and coleslaw were the sides to our mains. I had the steak and ale pie a delicious puff pastry topping. My son had the bacon, Brie and chilli jam wrap. My husband the chicken and sweet chili wrap.

My wife and I wanted to cheer on the participants in the fun run so we decided to have breakfast in Cafe Fairfull today (18/8/24), where we have visited many times in the past. The cafe was fairly busy with people getting coffee (assume takeaway) but inside there was plenty of space. We decided on a large breakfast at £10 and my wife the smaller breakfast at £7. My wife advised the lady serving us that she didnt want certain items from the breakfast (think it was bacon and poached egg) the lady just about jumpted down my wife`s throat stating that you are not allowed to change anything from the breakfast. At first we were a bit shocked but I asked the lady to clarify what she had said and she repeated that you cannot change items from the breakfast. I clarified with the server that to ask a customer to take items they arent going to eat is wasteful so she then updated the order to remove the relevant items. I also asked for some things to be removed from my breakfast. I can understand that sometimes customers may want to swap items they dont want for other items and normally most establishments allow this as long as you dont take advantage ie swap all the cheaper items for the more expensive ones. However at no time did my wife ask to swap any items only that she didnt want certain items. We have removed/swapped items in the past in Cafe Fairfull and havent had any issues but perhaps your policy has changed in this matter. The lady who took our order was very poor in her attitude and to be honest if we hadn`t eaten here before we would have left. I would say that the breakfast was lovely and probably worth the bother although they did forgot my coffee and hash brown`s. I would also say that the younger members of staff were very pleasant, helpful and efficient and we have never had any problems in the past so perhaps this was a one off.

Lovely decor, very nice food, service a little poor but mainly due to not having enough staff on I feel. Staff were helpful and pleasant and we enjoyed our meal. Only fault was two many tables and a little close together. But all in all very enjoyable.

This cafe is one of the best in Paisley. It has been about a year since my last visit but it does not disappoint. Great friendly service, amazing food, large portions (I had to get a doggy bag 😂) and great prices.

Took my aunt here for her birthday 🎂 Afternoon tea was delicious, food fresh and tasty, great service and lovely ambiance 😁thanks again Cafe Fairfull xx

A great place for snacks and coffee. Very decorative. The service is also great. The music is often loud which doesn't make it a great place to meet if your older or looking for a quiet hour to read.

I was attracted by the exterior and loved the interior decor. The menu is quite extensive and the portions generous. The young staff are all friendly and helpful and the food was very good.

We had a bad experience last time here with slow service but they couldn’t have been nicer and gave us two free cakes to apologise because it turned out our food hadn’t been put through the system! We decided to give it another go as the food is always great and we were so glad we did. This time round the service couldn’t have been quicker and the girl serving us was so lovely and polite. The menu is extensive, anyone should be able to find something they like. I usually opt for my favourite (soup and a toastie) but have also tried the cooked breakfast and it was very good and big portion sizes. Just has a really home cooked cosy vibe to the food and the cafe itself. A great find in Paisley.

Great food and service. The breakfast was great (especially the black pudding) and the service was great with nothing being too much trouble. Good value for money (you get coffee and toast included). Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast and we will be back. Would recommend a visit (my wife loved the selection of cakes picking the largest strawberry tart I have ever seen).

What a delicious treat for the taste buds. The food is outstanding, all made on the premises home baking, soup, sandwiches and lots lots more. The staff are friendly and the decor is very pleasing with historical pictures of old town paisley throughout the restaurant. There is also a seating area outside ( if the weather allows ) Even your furry friend is catered for with water. I would definitely recommend Cafe Fairfull if your visiting paisley or live in the area, it’s worth going into the town for. 🥰

Service v slow and had to ask the staff twice to serve me. My coffee arrived without milk and sausage roll arrived without sauce despite asking for both. Salt in the wound was being charged £3:45 for the coffee which was small at best. Needless to say, when I paid at the till on leaving, I wasn't asked if 'everything was ok'.

I visited this cafe from London with a business colleague. I could hear someone shouting from the other side of the street around 8am - decided to come back as it seemed "lively" enough. However, food was slow, cold and mediocre. £3.50 for 1 can of diet coke IS a bit extreme. Cakes were awful, bland and tasteless. I asked the owners name apparently its Elaine. Cmon Elaine get it together - you are running a nursery honey! Can't be hard to manage surely? Ps. I own a string of cafe/restaurants in London if you need tips DM me!

Please avoid the fajita. First they put you on a table for 2 which is tiny, then they give you the components of a fajita to build yourself which would be fine if the table wasn’t filled with the 2 plates - hence nowhere to build it - ridiculous

Great spot for a bite to eat or coffee and a cake! Food is lovely and staff are very welcoming. The fact it is dog friendly is a big bonus too! Staff are great with their furry customers offering treats and water bowl as well as lots of cuddles 🐶

I love going here with my dog, the staff is amazing and always give her treats and a water bowl. I always look forward to going due to the welcoming atmosphere and the great food. I honestly can’t recommend this place enough! Super dog friendly and the staff always go above and beyond.

Enjoyed a exceptional Full Breakfast & Latte with a friend yesterday - Proper Butchers sausages served unlike so many other Cafés these days - everything was cooked to my liking (Crispy Bacon as requested). Service was quick & attentive. By far the best Cafe in the area. They also offer a wide variety of homemade Cakes which are simply fantastic, The Strawberry Tarts are huge & can't be beaten flavour wise. Already planning & looking forward to my next visit.

Coffee and strawberry tarts for myself and my friend. Strawberry cheesecake & milkshake for my daughter. All great! Reasonably priced too (2 lattes, 2 VERY large strawberry tarts, large milkshake and a large slice of cheesecake was £21). The staff were really friendly (especially our server... forgot to ask her name though!) We only found out today that Cafe Fairfull is dog friendly! Took our pup in and he was spoiled... fresh bowl of water, puppy treats and belly rubs.

Was recommended by a lady in the street as being doggy friendly. We were made welcome with the dog and the soup was tasty and warm and sandwiches or toasties were lovely. Waitresses and manager were pleasant.

If you're thinking about trying this place I'd advise against it. Food was mediocre (if that) and, even though we waited over 30 minutes for it to arrive, it was lukewarm. Although there are lots of young staff the service is shockingly slow. The place was less than half full when we were there and we still waited over 30 minutes after ordering for our food to arrive and had to ask twice whether or not the order was coming or if (as seemed likely) it had been forgotten about. Manager was completely unapologetic and gave the impression that she couldn't care less. Not worth the money and certainly not worth the time wasted. There are other places in Paisley where you can get good food and friendly service. We'll be avoiding this place like the plague in future.

Strawberry milk shake over priced @ £6.00 definately not good value for what you get. Order grand prawn marie sandwich that consisted of more salad. This place used to be a hidden gem, not now. Service was average had to ask for condiments. Wont be...

Ordered from the gluten free menu looked good till the waitress came back that they give me the wrong pasta now I’m in hospital and being constantly sick this mistake could kill someone

Fantastic local Cafe serving delicious homemade food & a wide variety of absolutely delicious cakes. I also think their Coffee is exceptional. Spotlessly clean & you always receive a warm welcome. I can't recommend this place highly enough.

This was the worst experience in my entire life. We came in for a small afternoon tea and hour before closing time. The waitress was extremely rude and hateful towards us for wanting to be seated. She said in such a vile manner that the...

Went for a quick brunch. The place has a huge menu and the portions are huge for what you pay for. Amazing place. Staff were also really nice.

We have been coming here for 7 years as a group of girls, healthy options after a long walk or sometimes a guilty pleasure with cake and luxurious coffee. There was a lot of tension, the staff are clearly under pressure. We asked for our...

We had a good table, good food, great service. Food was excellent as was the service from our waitress, we had went here when we discovered our usual place had ceased trading. We had the soup and sandwich and a cake to follow - all...

Went here at 11:50 for lunch with kids sat outside. Waited 15 minutes no one came so went in to be told someone will come out another 15 minutes pass no one comes but people going in to be seated and served right away. Again...

Visited for lunch - the place was quiet when we arrived so didn’t expect to have to wait over 40minutes for our lunch. The server who took our order went and had his lunch while we were waiting and it was only after he came...

Afternoon tea says choice of sandwiches, what it doesn't tell you is that it's the chef's choice, not the customers. Went to the toilet and found out they don't have a cleaner !!. It's voluntary by the staff, who need patrons charity to pay them....

Very colourful place and good atmosphere .Great stuff , very friendly. Near by the Paisley Gilmore train station and closed by elements.

I’ve just paid £4 for a TAKEAWAY chocolate brownie, I had high hopes due to high price but it’s honestly the worst brownie I’ve ever had, dry, not fudgy like other retailers brownies and overly sweetened with sauce, awful.

Was in today order at takeaway, young girl that served me was lovely but young gentleman that was behind the counter make up coffee and different drink was so rude to the young girl that was served me. It was my first time used the...

Have visited this cafe In Paisley three times recently and it is wonderful. Lovely interior, great food at good prices and a marvellous selection. The staff are second to none, always very friendly and welcoming. Would highly recommend this cafe.

Popped in for lunch. This cafe is beautifully decorated inside and the lunch was very good with plenty of choice. We didn’t have any of the cakes but they all looked amazing.

I've been coming here for years and it was usually an enjoyable experience but not today. We ordered lentil and chicken soup but it was so salty I couldn't eat it, it tasted like brine. Then once we had finished the waitresses walked past us...

This afternoon my wife and I popped in to this lovely café for lunch whilst in Paisley shopping. Friendly staff, well laid out café and a good range available from the menu. My wife opted for a Baked potato which was delicious and my soup...

Had an amazing late lunch with the hubz. The food was superb as was the coffee and the super friendly service. Couldn't resist a takeaway cake as well, they are splendid!!! So relaxing and cosy, super friendly to humans and your doggo family also. Highly...

My daughter left me and my wife in this to me new eating place in Paisley while she and her daughter disappeared off to have their nails done. We spent a lovely time with great food, served by a helpful, charming staff, in very pleasant...

Lots of choice on the menu, service was a little slow but food was delicious and good value. We didn’t try the cakes but they looked great.

We stopped by here for respite from the rain mid morning and stayed for lunch. The staff are lovely and everything felt very covid safe. Food was all delicious and our kids enjoyed the hot chocolate. Drinks and ice creams are quite pricey but very...

A centrally-located, excellent, café, with a welcoming atmosphere. It's pleasingly decorated. Well-prepared and presented food, catering for a wide range of tastes. I particularly recommend the home-made soups, main meals and delicious cakes. Staff are friendly and genuinely interested in providing a first-rate service. Much...

Thought better of using this establishment after hearing of staff being abusive to and shouting at customers in the street. A place to be avoided at all costs one should imagine.

My and my partner decided to try a new cafe in Paisley, since we’ve been living here for over a year. I’ve walked passed this cafe over 100 times and I’m so mad at myself for not going in sooner! Our first impression when we...

In with my family for lunch (4 of us) we all received our drinks at the same time which was good. But we all received our food orders at different times. By the time I received my toastie, my coffee was well finished and everyone...

Popped in for lunch and it was lovely. Definitely be back again. Only thing though cakes were massive so next time I think I'll go for a smaller one. 😊

I usually really like it in here but today we received probably the worst service I’ve had in ages :( Firstly it took a good while for someone to come and take our order, then the women who took it didn’t even look at us...

Very nice staff, lovely interior, delicious food, super selection on menu. One of our favourite places. 🤗

Cafe Dreadful Booked a table specifically for an ice cream sundae for my husbands birthday , we arrived a little late,shown straight to our table , place was very busy so expected a wait but 2 hours and 15 minutes for essentially couple of sandwiches...

we visited here for lunch today and enjoyed it so much we stayed to try their amazing coffee and cakes! There is a great selection on the lunch menu to choose from and everyone enjoyed what they ordered, the soup and sandwiches are i had...

Went here today always good food and service but ment to be part of 50% off government scheme was charged full price when we pointed out it SHOULD be half price as of your post on fb stating this and your listing on government list...

Everything in this cafe is purple - the walls, the floor, the tablecloths, the chairs, the 100 decorations hanging from the ceiling. The fairly lights on the ceiling are a little annoying as they're on a flicker setting.However, that aside, the food is good and the staff are always really nice & friendly. We live in Paisley so come in here every so often and never have a complaint. Would be even nicer if some of the decor was toned down & depressing music wasn't on all the time. :)

We go every Monday for tea\coffee and a cake or a scone.Cakes are delicious and we know this because between us we have tried a few!Toasties are lovely and i just love the lentil soup.

The first time having food at the fairfull. Lovely cafe, we were first in for breakfast Wednesday 5th February. The food was lovely and so were the staff as a student at the University this will become my new breakfast or lunch stop when in for classes early. The range of cakes are amazing

I visited with a friend. It was just befire Christmas and really busy but the service was excellent. We had a great lunch - lovely soups and sandwhiches. The food was very fresh and delicious and great value for money. This is a jewel in Paisley's crown.

Cafe fairfullPaisleyRubbish736319056Came to paisley for a wander with the boys and popped into Cafe Fairfull on high street. Looks decent and the cakes look great however... we sat next to their piano which has a huge sticker on it saying feel free to play. Callum jumped on to give us some Billy Joel when a scary woman came zooming over to tell him to stop ✋. I asked why and she said it was broken. Nope it was perfectly in tune and she was just a nasty grumpy individual who should have stayed at home today. We left before our bums hit the seats. On a very wet day in paisley surely anyone’s money would be welcome? For anyone who knows this place feel free to tag them as I doubt they will allow my feedback to be posted. If you don’t like kids avoid the hospitality industry.

We dined with our family for the first time, although we have lived in Paisley for over 35 years! Staff were very welcoming and friendly and the restuarant itself was excellent. we will visit them again. The entrance looks like a small cafe, with waeting outside, but inside is a large and very comfortable cafe with an upper floor and plenty of seating. The food is also excellent.

The place served a great breakfast, portion sizes were perfect and set us up for the day. The atmosphere is lovely and the staff were very cheerful. A nice cheery start to my day. The decor is beautiful.

Have enjoyed visits to this cafe in Paisley and never disappointed. Choice on menu , cake counter superb. A mention for the soup either lentil or chicken/rice so good I have had takeaway , service and everything about this cafe is highly recommended

Great cafe serving a wide range of well-prepared meals, snacks and drinks. Soups and cakes are strongly recommended. Friendly Staff, with efficient service. Has a comfortable and well-appointed upstairs Lounge - suitable for special occasions.

Beautiful food the cakes are out of this world the coffee was delicious the staff were lovely so nice to find a 10/10 place. My only complaint is this place is a dieters nightmare as everything is a total temptation.

Came here for breakfast before heading home and found it to be a very pleasant cafe with a good range of food and a massive range of amazing cakes. Highly enjoyable, centre of the city and worth a visit!

Popped in today for lunch, what a beautiful cafe. The staff were so friendly and helpful, we were immediately seated and offered high chairs and my children were given colouring sheets to keep them occupied-always good!!

Fantastic food! Fantastic service! Highly recommend for a coffee and a cake with friends and family!

We loved our visit here. Delicious freshly cooked food, served quickly and pleasantly. Excellent value for money. A wide selection of snacks, meals and AMAZINGLY huge cakes available. We will be back!!!

Three of us had afternoon tea today in the new upstairs 'lounge' which is beautifully decorated and is available for groups who book Afternoon tea. A combination of Excellent service, tasty sandwiches and the most delicious cakes meant we thoroughly enjoyed our treat. Thank you so much for making our visit so enjoyable.

Great selection of food for brunch, my kids loved the crepes and drinking chocolate. Very friendly and helpful staff.

A very friendly, comfortable cafe, with a cheerful atmosphere.

my partner is now a loyal satisfied regular here, she will try to come once/twice a week now. Just a nice place (i think) sit relax, staff are friendly, good menu, and delicious cakes at the door step. can't wait to come back this week :)

We came here by chance, and we did not regret. For a start the place is so lovely,lighting on the ceiling. There is a nice atmosphere. We ordered coffees cakes and lunch and everything was delicious. We were here for about 3 hours.

Amazing soup for a good price, the coffee is very good and the staff are polite and helpful. Would definitely recommend.

was in with my partner for a rest on Thursday, been walking all morning, I had a can of coke but my partner wanted a hot chocolate and we had a caramel shortcake each, the hot chocolate was beautiful said my partner and the homemade cake was delicious. will be back again :)

OH and I had a nice 30 minute sit down outside this café, sun streaming down and enjoyed delicious home made scones, jam and clotted cream. All washed down by a generous latte. Cheap as chops into the bargain. Great wee place.

This must be one of the best cafe restaurants in Paisley,the food is wonderful and portions adequate + really good quality cakes and pastries

Just visited here to escape the hustle n bustle of Christmas shopping . Worst pot of tea ever . How is that possible with tea??? It had no flavour and was like drinking hot water. Table of neds few tables behind me f ing and blinding And Christmas music blaring . My experience lasted 10 min left the tea undrunk and won't be back .

This was my first visit and the third for my friend.

Love coming here for a bowl of filling homemade soup or one of their mouth watering cakes. Best Latte in Paisley

Amazing privately owned cafe with the best homemade cakes ever, lovely friendly staff, fab baked potatoes, toasties etc.well worth a visit

Had a quick lunch with my family. We all soup, I had the mushroom one and it was delicious, the chicken and rice was nice too. I would reconmend this place, absolutely!

Ordered a white Americano coffee and was informed that I could have a hot filled roll for the special price of £3.So had a hard crusted roll in square sausage.Sat outside under one of the parasols.Really enjoyed the coffee and the hot roll.I felt that price was very reasonable and the service was warm and friendly.

Stopped here for a quick lunch with my family. We had 2 rolls and 2 hot drinks. Service was quick and food delicious. I will definitely go back again!

Stopped in here for tea and coffee after an afternoon in Paisley.

We were in Paisley on Saturday and decided to pop into Fairfull for a coffee and a hot chocolate.

Lovely place for a refreshing cuppa in the town centre. Good offers on soup/sandwiches and the cakes are yummy. Comfy settees are a welcome addition and the staff are very friendly. Lots of art to peruse/purchase although not cheap. Only drawback is the lack of an accessible toilet.

Most disappointed with my lunch, soup took forever to arrive and when it did, I have never tasted a less flavoursome soup, it looked to have all the ingredients but there was no taste even after adding lots of salt and pepper. Then the next course arrived, lasagna with garlic bread, I noticed right away that it had been turned over a bit, the pasta was hard and again very "claggy" and the bread was not any better, I had to leave it. When I was asked if there was something wrong with the meal I told as above and was met with a little resistance. For the price I paid, I would not recommend, stick to sandwiches and toasties.

This is quite an odd place, being in a gift shop. But it serves really good quality cakes and coffee. Also available meals and hot and cold drinks which look good. Great location right in the High Street with a great out door bit under cover.

Staff were friendly and the place was busy however the food was in my opinion overpriced for its quality. Coffee was nice and the cakes good but that's about it

Been here a few times for coffee and a snack and the coffee is fab, as are their snacks and cakes. Staff very friendly and prices reasonable - would recommend when out shopping

I usually eat here with my mum we have done usually once a fortnight for a long time with no issues. However having sang their praises to my friend I decided to take her in and we were both shocked at both the food we were served and the service we received. We both ordered baked potatoes with chicken mine my usual sweet chilli chicken and my friend tikka missala on arrival they both looked disgusting they looked like cottage cheese with a small amount of sauce drizzled over and some cheese melted on the top...when I questioned the women as to whether there was actually any chicken on it she informed me that they now do it a new way to try and save money and shred the chicken now....the only way can could be described is was mush it certainly wasn't shredded in any way, after much discussion where we debated taking a refund we were told we could have it done the old way if we wanted so we took that and it was alot tastier. We then decided on cake which was another disaster as my friend asked for rhubarb cake served with ice cream and was asked if she would like it hot which she said yes..I ordered toffee cake which on having before I know is lovely. On arrival of them the rhubarb cake was cold with 2 separate servings of ice cream in separate bowls I was presented with toffee cheesecake which I didn't order again we had to ask for this order to be fixed and the women came back again and asked me did I want toffee cheesecake, caramel cake or toffee cake by this time as you can imagine patience was wearing a bit thin. During our visit we repeatedly heard staff telling people who were questioning where their orders where "we are busy today and your order is in a queue so you'll get it when it's ready' we we're really surprised at the fact that no one came near us to apologise for the whole lunch order being a disaster and offering our money back for the tea's at least as we had paid not far off £30 for everything. I am hoping this has just been a total off day ad like I say my mum likes it here and would go back for her sake but my friend said she has experienced nothing like it and most definitely will not be back or recommending to anyone. All in all was a real shame as I used to really enjoy visiting here. Oh I was assured that in future visits I can ask for my chicken to be prepared in the old way if I would prefer and not the shredded mess.

Lovely place to meet, chat and relax over a coffee and delicious cake. Some lovely artwork around the walls that are for sale 🍰☕️

Been in here quite a few times. Usually on my own after I've dropped my daughter at her drama class. Relaxed atmosphere with fantastic cakes! And fantastic hot chocolate. I have never tasted any of the hot meals from here. But going on looks alone it all looks fantastic. Deffo need to give here a visit if you are passing.

A really handy tea room in the centre of town. Cakes and scones very enjoyable. Staff helpful and service quick. Good range of lovely baking and snacks served at a reasonable price. Definitely would recommend a visit.

People who are supported by carers are not wellcom there, as they get label from the beginning and they may be accuse of doing something wherever they do it or not.

Good prices, friendly staff, lovely interior with local artists artwork on display, scrumptious hme made cakes of all thpes, tasty snacks, and you can sit outdoors too under an umbrella in warmer days, variety of handy shops around

If you want delicious cakes and coffee stop off here! Photos and pictures to buy too, and you can sit outside. Enjoy!

My fiancee Jan and I visit Fairfull regularly and have found it to be very friendly, with wonderful staff and superb food, delivered promptly and with a smile.

Wij hebben hier twee keer gezeten. De eerste keer waren er er niet van bewust dat je zelf moest bestellen bij de entree en gelijk moest betalen. Hierdoor zaten we al een tijdje te ontspannen aan een tafeltje terwijl er vaak genoeg een serveerster langs liep maar ons als "touristen" er niet op wees dat we zelf naar voren moesten lopen om te bestellen. Uitendelijk een koffie en een "verse" smoothie besteld. De koffie was oké maar het fruit wat voor de smoothie was gebruikt lag volgens mij al een tijdje in de vrieser. Er zaten nog grove stukken fruit in met ijs schilfers. De tweede keer hadden wel twee milkshakes besteld. Het was echt een suikerinfuus! Toen ik aangaf dat de milkshake te zoet was werd ik raar aangekeken en er werd zelfs gelachen ... niet echt een profesionele service..

I have now become a regular in this coffee shop, which doesnt really do it justice tbh, there is no pre-prepared food, the coffee is awesome and the service is above and beyond excellent. The food is always freshly prepared before arriving at your table and I love having my food freshly prepared. The staff are always warm and welcoming and the artwork that's displayed takes your mind far away from Paisley High Street. Well done to you and your team!!

Love the coffee,the food is fresh.I visit regularly at least twice a week.The staff are friendly and accommodating and always remember my order "hazelnut latte".By far the most superior food above any other place to eat in Paisley.Thank you for being consistently fresh and friendly.

Went in one day out of chance as needed something to eat badly,so very glad I did it's amazing. I had soup and a sandwich followed by a toffee meringue which was heavenly,a must try for anyone who would like a light lunch or even just a coffee.
