Had a meet up with my family and went for a quick bite at Central Cafe Barrhead. What a pleasant surprise I got. The menu had a wide range of food and what we got on our plates was first class. All served up in a reasonable time by and efficient waitress. Will definitely be calling back in here.

Family run, traditional café. Food is great and one of the few places remaining that you can get perfectly cooked tattie scones. Here's a life tip : if a cafe makes tattie scones properly you can be pretty certain of good food.Add in the award-winning ice-cream made on-site with a range of great flavours and you have probably the best traditional café in Scotland.

Everything you could hope to get out of a cafe. I want with my grandfather and both of us ordered the full Scottish breakfast, absolutely fantastic, the black pudding on par with Stornoway black pudding, the egg was cooked perfectly, the two tattie scones where among the most light and airy I have ever tasted and the lorne sausage was phenomenal. The tea was amazing and so was the latte. The empire biscuit and the shortcake where also amazing. Haven’t tried the ice cream but will come back for more. The atmosphere was also amazing, great social hub and not an unhappy customer in sight, laughing from all directions and the staff where nothing but nice. 10/10 This is my last meal.
