We travelled more than 80 miles to look at cars in Bishopbriggs, a process which can be quite daunting. The great food and caring staff in the Briggs cafe gave us a revitalising lunch break and really made our day. Nothing was too much trouble and we felt really valued as customers. We sang its praises when we drove past on a test drive, so maybe the sales staff will be in soon! Many thanks to everyone at Briggs.

I have been going to the Briggs Cafe for some months now with my elderly Dad who has Dementia, The owners and staff are so kind and understanding with him even though they hear the same stories on a weekly basis they listen intently and genuinely seem interested which Dad laps up . It’s so heartening that genuine people still exist. The Cafe is always buzzing and the age range is very varied with young kids sitting eating pizza and ice cream without the parents to The older generation with coffee and the guilty pleasure cake . This wee place has a real sense of community and although it’s an hour and a half round trip I so look forward to it . Keep up the good work

The folks who run it are lovely and attentive, and allowed my friend to bring in his small dog. The mushroom soup and chicken burger were both great. The filled croissant and rolls are a good option for breakfast.

I love their soup, chips and their home-made ice cream!! The staff (of course including the owner) are so nice and friendly that we feel warm and welcomed. This is definitely one of the reasons for us to visit again and again.

What a gem of a place. I popped in for lunch while my car was in the garage and well I am so glad I did. I ordered the chicken and mushroom creamy pasta and it was amazing. Wide variety on the menu from cakes and sandwiches to pizza slices and pasta. I found the menu well priced and will visit again. The ice cream is amazing too, couldn't resist a scoop of vanilla for the walk back to the garage. What I also really liked about this place was the friendliness of the staff. There was a variety of people in on their own and the staff took the time to talk to them and even sit and chat to a old man on his own for a couple of minutes. This warms my heart with the cafe clearly being a light in some elderly people's week. Keep up the good work Briggs Cafe.
