Sweet cafe with fairly priced meals

I visited here with my baby a few days ago and had a delicious kombucha smoothie. I never would have thought to put kombucha in a smoothie but it worked so well! I was planning on eating in but my daughter was overdue a nap and was getting grouchy so I decided to order the "chicken" wrap and mac'n'cheese to takeaway. They survived a pretty treacherous journey back to the car in the pouring rain. I ate both when I got back to my hotel and they did not disappoint. They were both absolutely delicious despite having cooled down.

Pros: Reasonable price, Nice spot

Cons: Limited food menu

Nice

We came indoors for a cake and warm drinks while it rained outside! Cake was dark chocolate and salted tahini which was an interesting flavour I would try again. Drinks were comforting.

Nice cute cafe and great food.

The menu is quite small however i think this works in their favour as the options are very flavourful. They also have specials which come and go so make sure to keep an eye on their socials for whats on.

Pros: Great tasting food, Good atmosphere

Cons: Small menu but this is a very minor con!!

Great from a health perspective, but lacks flavour.

The food was very filling and is undeniably healthy, however it lacked flavour and wasn't tasty at all.
The environment of the restaurant is really cute and welcoming, but the machinery needs to be moved into the back. It isn't very pleasant when it sounds like a fighter jet is taking off every time a smoothie is being made.

Pros: Healthy, Cute environment

Cons: Lacks flavour, Machinery is so loud

A Lovely Lovely Cafe

I visited this cafe with a couple of non-vegan friends, they were amazed. The whole menu is plant-based with a great selection of amazing food. There are healthy, and not-so healthy options, which is great! I had the soup of the day, with beautiful bread and a lovely coffee. The decor is gorgeous, and along with the food, is very 'instagram-able'. The service was great AND they allow dogs, so all in all this place is just perfect.

Dog and baby friendly!

Had a lovely meal here (chicken and waffles) and the staff made a fuss of our dog while I fed the baby which helped me out. Menu is great and it's a good vibe.

A restaurant about nothing!

Blimey! A Seinfeld-themed vegan café, what else could one ask for? This place was wonderful. Loads of Seinfeld references all around the restaurant. Even some tables were shaped just like in the restaurant in the show. A must go place if you're a Seinfeld fan. Staff were great as well. Food is average.

Amazing vegan gluten free breakfast

Had the southwest tofu scramble gluten free breakfast and my partner had the big breakfast and both were the best we’ve ever had. Just go here. Also mochas and cappuccinos are amazing. Customer had her cute dog in and the art and plants everywhere were perfect!

Best for a brunch

Great food, I'd go for the pancakes as they are the best vegan ones I've had, friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Love it!

It’s fun, Jerry - fun!

They welcome dogs, the food is good and there are Seinfeld references all over the place. What’s not to like? The flow of customers were all welcomed with friendliness. I’ll be a regular.

Spongeworthy

The vegan food is nice and all, and the menu is really imaginative and everything, but 80% of this place’s appeal is the several thousand Seinfeld references dotted about the place.

But, again, the food is nice.

Dog friendly

One of the best places we tried in Glasgow. After being disappointed by another local cafe we were so happy to find this place. Great food, lots of dogs and lovely staff. Only one issue was my brothers food came out 20 minutes after mine as apparently it was dropped. No offer to make it complimentary or even a free drink to keep him going during his wait which is pretty standard and would have been appreciated! Apart from this slight customer service issue we will definitely be back when we come to Scotland again.

Pros: Big portions , Dog friendly

Cons: Customer service could be better

Best brunch \ sehr gutes Frühstück

Nr. 1 Anlaufstelle für bestes veganes Frühstück in Glasgow. Es gibt mehrere Gerichte die Tageszeiten abhängig sind. Aber alles war sehr sehr Lecker.

Pros: Schnell, alles vegan, ausensitze vorhanden

Fantastic Birthday Brunch

The Southwest Scramble, Mac & Cheese, and Chicken & Waffle were all delicious. The flamingo wallpaper in the loo made us laugh. Definitely worth the walk outside the city center.

Quality and creative food 👌

We came in for a small lunch and this cafe did not disappoint. The Phish wrap was really tasty and they didn't skimp on the filling. The menu items were more interesting than your usual breakfast/lunch food fare (e.g. beetroot reuben) that I found it hard to choose from the menu. Will be back to try breakfast 😁

Pros: Bright and comfy cafe, Interesting breakfast and lunch choices

Favourite vegan brunch.

Love this open cafe and the decor is lovely - so much natural light and gorgeous plants too. Great selection of breakfast, brunch and lunch options. Loads of innovative vegan choices and a huge range of hot drinks, smoothie bowls and sandwiches too. Have been mute times and never disappointed!! All of the staff are so friendly and welcoming too.

Food out of this world and super friendly staff

Finally found THE vegan place I had always looked for, where I could get some yummy, elaborate, affordable, original and filling brunch options - had the "chicken and waffles" which tasted fantastic!!! Very cosy location and atmosphere. Went back and had some of their sandwich options and I was speechless! Amazing place to have a wee nice time with pals or your family, the staff is super helpful and pleasant. Will definitely come back to taste more of their stuff soon, especially their smoothies I've heard so much about.

Pros: Tasty and filling brunch options, Worth its price , Dog friendly, which makes it all the more pleasant

Better places out there

We were seated next to the front window and it was absolutely freezing. We sat on the same side away from the window and kept out coats on. I don't even get cold easily. I had a burger, which tasted like a McD's. Portions were small and overpriced. Will not return.

Very delicious food with a hefty price to match.

I've eaten here about four times and while the food is very good, it's definitely overpriced. A lot of it would be easy to make yourself (like avocado toast) and they charge you a fortune for it.

I've had the pancakes (which were worth the money) and the waffles and chicken (which probably weren't). The full vegan breakfast does contain a lot but again, is very expensive.

That being said, if you're in Glasgow visiting I would definitely go because the food is very delicious, just be prepared to pay more than most vegan places.

Pros: Very good food.

Cons: Very expensive for what it is.

Love this place- but cold!

We really love Serenity Now, food is very tasty and decor is nice and staff super friendly. Would give 4.5 stars only because it’s always so cold! It will be nice in summer but at this time of year could do with more heating. Otherwise have good experiences here.

Not convinced...

Nothing here is really bad, but Serenity Now is also not amazing. We had the weekend full breakfast, which was quite small for the price asked and was also missing some sauce or something moist. The pancakes were better but also not amazing.

Pros: Large selection of vegan foods

Cons: Pricey for what it is, full breakfast is a bit small

Yay!

I liked all the plants and plant deco on the wall and the open counter kitchen thing. The staff were nice and the food was yum. Both inexpensive and normal priced food. Yay!
