We have been here many times for lunch but never for breakfast. The Mexican Eggs were absolutely out of this world. Can't wait to go again next week for the same. Had the eggs been runnier it would have been perfect. Friendly efficient service.

Very good, service and food good. Lunch with my daughter. Definitely go back again but will try to book in advance as its very very busy.

Visited with friends. Seated quickly, and staff were friendly. Food was all tasty and well presented. There were a few small niggles: we weren't brought enough cutlery, salt & pepper was 2 x peppers, and the bill wasn't brought to us at the end. The waitess just had a pad with the amount written on it, and my poached eggs I would prefer runny yolks. I'd love to see a halloumi stack, as well as the other options. Cake options were fab 👌

Second visit but we wouldn’t go back. Has great potential with its location and foot fall. First visit didn’t stay due to rude staff member. Second visit despite having booking and seats available we had to wait over our booked time, only stayed as daughters wanted to try it! Felt wasn’t the cleanest and others in after us were seated.

We've been here often as we live locally and it's a handy walk from our house and our daughter's school. However after today we won't be back. We normally just get coffees and cakes but today we decided to go for lunch. Service was not great even to begin with, as we waited a while to be served and then had to ask for a forgotten drink and a pot of jam. At this point though we were still planning on tipping. When we were finished we asked for the bill, about ten minutes later someone came and cleared the plates and said its "£26.50, card or cash?" I said "card but could I see a bill?" Not for any other reason than it seemed weird to just hand over my card without seeing an itemised bill. Then another server came our and asked me what I wanted, confused I said "I just want a receipt, something with our order itemised." I felt like they were making out this was a really strange thing to ask. I was just looking for the check! Then 5 minutes later the original server came over with a written note and said oh it's actually cheaper. It was £24.70 just a couple of pound, so I wondered if they'd put a service charge on but it's weird that they don't show you a bill or tell you there's a discretionary service charge. The waitress also asked me if I wanted to keep the bill which made me even more suspicious ! I had 3 pound coins to put on the table for tip but after the issue with the bill, we didn't leave anything. Overall just really strange service and I felt like they were trying to con me out of leaving extra as a tip.

We have been here twice, and both times experienced terrible service. The menu is fab, atmosphere lovely, nice and cosy on a cold day. The staff are friendly enough, but they are switched off. Last visit things we ordered were missed, but charged for(!) This time after I approached the till our order was eventually taken. Then our daughter was served her hot drink and cake. Mine and my partners drinks didn't arrive and after 40 minutes of waiting we had to cancel our order. This was despite politely asking if the other drinks, and soup were still coming. It got so close to their closing time there was little point in attempting to eat (?hot) soup in less than 10 minutes. When I went to pay for what my daughter ate, and cancel the rest of the items, the young girl putting the payment through giggled into the card machine repeating, "I'm SO sorry" in a sing song voice. It's so disappointing as the concept is great. Pity the reality doesn't live up to the image. Next time we'll go elsewhere.

Went to vin18 for lunch and cakes, Service was terribly slow and took forever to get food. There were lots and lots of flies ending up on the food infront of us and the cakes in the cabinet. No one came over after serving the food.

The food was lovely if you can be bothered waiting way longer than expected for it. Its good value & staff are friendly so I probably will return.

This place has the potential to be great but I was left really disappointed after my recent visit. I had to wipe the seat clean before sitting down and the table felt sticky too. The staff are cuddling and clapping dogs and immediately serving food afterwards. Long waits for food and even on walking in there was no smile, greeting or acknowledgement from staff.

We went for a tapas night tonight after seeing advertisements on Instagram and Facebook. The food was really good but the service lets it down. Cutlery not quite clean, plates chipped, food comes before plates etc. Coke arrived after 5 minutes, and we had to ask for wine after another 5 - we were the only table seated inside at this point. We sat for ages after tidying up our table waiting for plates to be taken away. The only reason I am leaving a review is because this place has potential. The food is lovely but we felt forgotten about at every course. With a bit of work it could shine. At the moment it is average. Just.

Been going to this cafe since it opened but noticed the last couple of visits it’s just not been as good 😞 The food is good and the staff are very nice, but the cafe is starting to look quite rundown and the service has been terrible. Very long waits for coffee/ food. The table we were sat at was dirty when we sat down, crumbs and food all over the floor and crumbs and hairs on the table. The cutlery that we were given was also dirty and they messed up our order meaning one of us had to wait. Very disappointing as I love going here so much!

Cakes and coffee were 5 star. Staff were very pleasant. Table was not clean for us sitting down. I know this is a dog friendly cafe ….. however allowing dogs on the seats is not acceptable ! I don’t expect to be seated beside an animal! This is unhygienic and put me off going back.

This was a surprise discovery in a neighbourhood that I thought was entirely residential. A lovely cosy cafe with a delicious choice of sandwiches and cakes. My friend and I had booked for afternoon tea. I am gluten and dairy free and previous experience at a variety of venues has shown me this can be a hit or a miss. The Vin 18 team created a total hit with some careful consideration and creative flair which was sincerely appreciated. I would recommend this place and I will definitely go back.

Went here with family, wasn’t that impressed as not much veggie or vegan options and quite expensive. Wouldn’t rush back given the little choice of veggie or vegan options

Return visit to local cafe, good coffee. I ordered pancakes bacon & maple syrup. When food arrived I was disappointed to see a dish of golden syrup, quite different to maple ! Also bacon was fatty and far from crispy. I ate my food and drank my good coffee. At the end of the meal the waitress asked if everything was ok ( some food left), I expressed my disappointment at golden syrup not maple as stated on menu. She said “ oh kitchen must have run out”…. Oh that’s ok then !!! Not ! She didn’t come back to my table . So if you’re not bothered to get what you ask for , or described on menu then visit here! I’d be happy with a sorry and an explanation before I ordered

This was our first visit to Vin18, and safe to say we will be back. We had the French toast (various options). Food was delish, portion size was excellent, service was good (slight delay on the tasty smoothies), nice atmosphere. We will definitely be back.

I visited the cafe for lunch. We had water with food as we would have coffee afterwards and perhaps a yummy cake. While waiting a young couple came in with their very young puppy. Most of the waitresses fussed and took time to clap the puppy, very near the window where the cakes are displayed. One waitress even handled the puppy and carried it around to show others. The puppy was even taken in the back to, I presume the kitchen. Not one girl was seen to go and wash hands, 2 of them started to make the carry out food boxes up while another handled coffee/teas cups. I was appalled. Needless to say we did not hang around for coffee. The food we had was tasty but I'm definitely put off by hygiene standards.

I have been in Vin18 for lunch and on a Friday evening. each time the staff have been lovely and the food delicious, it's a great addition to the Rutherglen area and highly recommend it, although booking recommended as it's so busy.

Ordered two artisan sandwiched for lunch. Absolutely superb. If this venue were located in the south side or the west end of the city it would be constantly mobbed! a real hidden gem. If you are in the area the it is a must!

Went for drinks pre P!nk concert. Staff were awful and rude to my mum and myself. Made to feel like we were a nuisance and annoying for trying to order drinks. Staff were "busy". It's a shame cos I've been before and it was lovely.. Maybe avoid on busy days?

This place no longer serves food which is a let down. It was empty as a result other than 2, 30something's still drunk shouting sectarian bile whilst being pandered to by the barmaid who was either on her phone of outside smoking! This used to be a great pub but seems it's just a place for yobs getting out their face now!

We had a lovely curry on Wednesday night. Out for hubby's birthday. Had a few drinks, Kai the manager was above and beyond. He was amazing ran the service single handed and still had time to talk to the customers. As always a great wee night and great prices xxx
