Order the Pizza! - Edit
I've been to Mono a fair bit and it never fails. The pizzas are particularly delicious, as are the burgers, fries and cakes. The staff are pretty friendly, and dogs are allowed, as are takeaway orders, so I just can't stop coming back!
Read morePros: Pet friendly , Takeaway available , Good location, good for parking
Cons: Can get busy and not the biggest place

The 4 cheese pizza they had on as a special a few weeks ago was off the scale.

Great desserts - Edit
I came here with a bunch of non-vegans, and although I only had a hot chocolate (I was stuffed from a big lunch) my friends tried the range of mains and desserts and all loved them. Very laid-back space with a nice little second-hand record store out the back, I would definitely come again.

Lovely restaurant and atmosphere - Edit
The atmosphere had kind of a hipster feel to it, but it was quite cosy. The menu is varied and has some raw options, which I appreciate for when I'm back on the raw train :p Amazing chips! Very friendly staff. The dessert was great, I had a raw chocolate avocado cheesecake! My boyfriend had the sundae which was equally amazing. Will definitely be coming back!

Great vibe, awesome simple food - Edit
From pizzas, burgers and sandwiches, to kaley salads and zingy Thai stir fry’s; everything in Mono is 100% free from animal products and 100% delicious. It’s so exciting to eat some good old filling grub without the pretention of a fancy vegan restaurant! Hang around long enough and you can also catch an awesome local band as you sip on their great selection of beers and ales.

This was a treat for me because I love the Scottish classics and have missed them since going vegan. The battered sausage was delicious! The place is cool but quite noisey as very child friendly!

Amazing Food! - Edit
I've visited Mono several times and the food has been fantastic each time.
Read moreSeitan burger, pizzas, chips, macaroni and cheesecake (possibly the best cheesecake!) are all delicious and are reasonably priced.
The atmosphere is great and the decor is 'unusual' and 'rustic', it's very nice!
Pros: Inexpensive, Great selection, Desserts!
Cons: Service is a little slow sometimes

Good old favourite. - Edit
Food is always really tasty and fresh, decent portions too. Few times I had an issue with off tasting draught beer, and staff is not very attentive (if you want something you need to wait for ages or go find them) but I will keep coming back as food makes up for it. During the weekend it's almost impossible to get a walk-in table so best to book one in advance.
Read morePros: Always delicious food
Cons: "Funny" tasting draught beer sometimes, staff not

Great pizza - Edit
Really friendly atmosphere. The pizzas are great, I had the Turkish one which was nice and spicy. No fake cheese but covered in "yoghurt". It was pretty filling but it was a cold day so had a soup which was also tasty. Good coffee as well!

To-fish n chips? Yes please! - Edit
This great all vegan place (which is obviously a live-music music venue as well) is a really nice place to spend some time. And if you're up for lots of deep fried tastiness, the to-fish and chips with mushy peas were awesome.

Absolutely fantastic! - Edit
I almost wish I lived in Glasgow, just so I could make this my regular place. Both my vegetarian friend and me (vegan) were delighted with our food, and the place in general. The staff was super friendly, and they have a wide selection of really good beers! The prices are reasonable, and it's a cool venue!
Read morePros: delicious, cheap, hip place, nice staff!
Cons: not the easiest to find, fridge was broken, beers weren't cold

Lovely and chilled - Edit
Been here a few times and I'm always torn on what to get because of the great selection. The first time I came here was with my vegan friend who has Coeliacs, so has a rather hard time of it, but this place has a separate GF menu that I think is missing about 2 or 3 of the items on the regular menu, so still a nice amount of choice.

Great vibe - Edit
Visiting from the States, Mono was a great find in the heart of Glasgow. Although Mono is a pub, and caters to a generally young adult clientele, it was perfectly suitable on a Friday late afternoon (6-7pm) for the whole family. The place is light and spacious, with plenty of seating when we visited.
Read moreI recommend starting out with a local draft beer, partly because the beers are so good, and partly so you have something to sip while waiting for service. The wait staff was friendly and knowledgeable, but I guess just a bit more laid back than we are used to, or perhaps spread to thin.
The menu has a variety of selections, including the several that we enjoyed: To-fish ‘n’ chips, Pizza, Seitan burger, and Roasted beetroot & kale salad. All were excellent. Even better were the desserts -- we had the Cheesecake and
Hot fudge ice cream sundae, the latter of which included a scoop of raspberry ice cream, and was perhaps the best sundae I've ever had.
A must if you are in Glasgow!
Pros: Menu variety, quality, Beverages, Desserts
Cons: Slow service

We love Mono! - Edit
We always go to Mono when we're in Glasgow, it's brilliant. Delicious vegan pizzas, burgers and things of that ilk, not your usual, really imaginative and well cooked. We like the new micro-brewed non-alcoholic drinks. Friendly atmosphere and good music. They have some nice puddings, too, but we missed the sticky toffee pudding we had last year - that was one of the best puddings ever!

Fabulous place - Edit
Really lovely vibrant feel to this café/bar. Great selection of food, I am vegan & had lots of choice which was nicely different from the "usual" choices. This place is also a micro brewery so makes its own brand of drinks including soft drinks. Great atmosphere, will definitely go again.

A place to, er, chill - Edit
My partner and I probably doubled the average age of the clientele when we arrived on Saturday night, but no-one seemed to mind. [edited to correct an error] The raison-d'etre of this one is possibly music and booze rather than food, but the food was actually quite good and it's great that all of it is vegan. They didn't have my first choice of starter or main course but the grilled aubergine (perhaps slightly underdone) and spinach-and-'cheese' parcels were fine, as was the 'cheese'-cake. Service was slightly chaotic but we weren't in a hurry and the people were nice. There was recorded music playing but it wasn't obtrusive.

The 13th Note is not under the same ownership as Mono/78/Stereo. I think 13th Note would be quite put out to read that!

Fantastic food - Edit
Mono is a very big cafe/bar, and the service was a little slow on a busy lunchtime. The food was worth the wait though. The grilled portobello burger was garlicky and delicious, and the onion rings were absolutely sublime! Dessert was even better - I strongly recommend the sticky toffee pudding.

This was a large spacious cafe/bar. We had a pizza which was not so nice, some soup and sandwich and some chocolate cake. Food was ok, this place comes 4th on the list for the Vegan cafes in Glascow.

Taking Slow Food too literally - Edit
Excellent variety of dishes such as gyros, "fish" and chips (tofu), Turkish pizza etc! Interesting industrial décor with what I think is old brewing equipment, also a small book/record shop. Food was delicious but restaurant had INCREDIBLY slow service; we allocated 90mins for a main course and dessert and still overran (though they reduced the bill accordingly, which was nice). If coming from genteel surroundings, bear in mind that some of the other diners may use *whispers* bad language, which will cause elderly members of your party to tut-tut.

Great! - Edit
Mono is one of my favourite places to eat in Glasgow. The pizza, burgers and onion rings are great, although the way they do their garlic bread is not the way I'd choose. It can get busy, but the staff have always stayed on top of things and I have only had positive experiences. It's a pub venue, but many of the tables are away from the immediate bar area, however it can still get very busy and loud.
