One of my favs for years

Mono has been around for a while and it's definitely one of the best in Glasgow. I personally really love their mac n cheese, and their pizzas are also always really good. Good vibe with a record store as well.

Excellent service and great variety of food

Loved it. Order quickly though as it gets very busy very quickly. Great selection of beers and a cool varied menu.

Pros: To fish and chips

Tofu fish & chips!!!

An all vegan place, hooray!! Been here a few times and it's always been good. I always have the tofu fish & chips as it's something I don't get to eat very often. It's delicious! Nice crispy batter and chips and tartare (sp?) sauce, served with lemon wedges. Good sized portion and a full bar too. Definitely recommend. No pic, as I was too hungry 😅.

Pros: All vegan, Plenty of choice, Outdoor seating

Great Tofish & chips!

Update January 2025: visited for a second time. I was not impressed. Service was very slow, staff avoided eye contact when I tried to call them, and also did not bring water to my table. Shawarma-loaded fries were quite a small portion, and subsequent sticky toffee pudding had almost no sauce and the ice-cream scoop probably could not be any smaller. Definitely not worth the price paid. I will still hope it was just a lapse, and give them another chance next time.

Visited for the first time, had absolutely great tofish & chips. Nice staff. Spacious place, very quiet on a Tuesday afternoon. Need to come back to try more items from the menu!

Excellent!

Have been here loads and it's always good but omg everything we ate today was divine. Had the baja tofish tacos to start, the "spicy one" burger (absolutely beautiful, nduja was gorgeous and the "hot honey" was amazing, made the burger sweet and spicy and the seitan was amazing) and then had the s'more donut to finish. CANNOT recommend that highly enough. Only thing I got a photo of. The photo doesn't do it justice, the most gorgeous dessert I've had in ages! Yum! Really friendly service too!

It’s okay

I’ve been several times and as much as I want to love it I always leave feeling it could have been a bit better. I always seem to prefer Stereo. It also feels like the price is quite high for the portion size, particularly they are a bit stingy on the chips which it wouldn’t take much to up the portion quantity. Most recently I had the satay bowl which I was a little disappointed with.

Pros: Good menu, Nice atmosphere, Friendly service

Beautiful food, cool setting and lovely staff

I had two starters instead of a main as couldn't choose. The tofish tacos and haggis potatoes were to die for (and the portions were generous).

Amazing choices

Went here for a birthday dinner with family and everyone enjoyed their food! A relaxed atmosphere and friendly staff made it a nice day out. Everything tasted great!

Edit: visited again and still amazing.

Excellent food

Having just arrived in Scotland, I searched high and low online for some mac and cheese as it is my favorite food. Glad that I found the menu for Mono. I wish I had extra stomachs because the menu looks so good. We tried the Spicy Sausage pizza, the mini mac and cheese and the To-fish & chips with mushy peas (because why not?) Everything was excellent. All the flavors and textures were great. I cannot wait to go again.

Note: We arrived on a Friday at 12pm when they opened. I noticed some reviews say that the service is slower and I could say that was correct but if you go there when you are not rushed, you won't be disappointed. When we wanted to leave, we just went to the counter and paid our bill.

Must visit in Glasgow

This is a chill, relaxed place with outstanding food and friendly staff.
As a vegan visiting Scotland for the first time, I took a huge mental leap by ordering the ‘haggis burger’. Not sure and don’t want to find out how close it is to actual haggis. But the vegan version was tasty and filling!

Fish & Chips!

Finally found a place that has good vegan fish and chips, and loads of other great dishes (vegan Mac & Cheese for example). Great food, nice people, fine beers and overall a good place that has a killer record shop integrated as well, and they also host live gigs in here quite often. If you only have time to visit one place in Glasgow, let it be Mono!

Pros: All the vegan food, cool place with record shop, very nice staff

Amazing food

Amazing food - definitely will return. Service was quite slow so don't come if you're in a huge rush (waited 45 minutes for the bill, eventually had to go up to the bar and ask to pay there instead🤣) and the portion sizes are a bit on the smaller side for the price - but that's just city pricing I suppose. Definitely worth it though as the food was amazing, pizza crunch was just how I remembered them being and the mac and cheese was warm and comforting - in house seitan really lovely too!

fabulous diverse vegan menu

Been here multiple times in the last 15 years and it's gone from strength to strength. I aim to try everything! Relaxed interior, record shop attached. It's a real treat.

Try EVERYTHING

Really diverse menu, everything was cooked to perfection and incredibly flavorful, excellent service, and really fun venue. If you’re from out of town, try the local classic the “pizza crunch” for some deep fried goodness!

Simple yet great

A laid back pub with a nice offering. We had the shawarma and the tofu-fish and chips and it was awesome!
Super tasty and filling.
Had a Sunday as a dessert, was really great. It’s surrounded by some 2nd hand clothes shop that are also super nice.

Pros: Ginger beer was great, Food is super tasty, Super cheap

Delicious food

We sat on the terrace and after getting the menus we had to order inside, at the bar. There are great nice options to choose from, I went with the to-fish and chips, as not to skip this traditional meal. It was great, got a taste of the ice cream as well, definitely recommend

Marked improvement

Came year a few years ago and it was such a bad experience I vowed never to return.
Decided to give them the benefit of the doubt and return, which I’m glad I did. Delicious, creamy mac which stayed warm. Good service this time too!

UPDATE 1/8/24:
Returned and service is as diabolical as it used to be. If you keep your expectations for that low, you’ll be fine. Food is delicious.
