Spitfire Espresso, Coffee and Sweetness
Are you a foodie but also a coffee lover?
We are also testing the city's cafés and it can be said that Glasgow is full of great coffee, for all tastes and with above all unique atmospheres.
Next to the famous Merchant city district, near George Square, you can find a small café, specialized in espresso and homemade desserts.
The simple and effective motto of Spitfire Espresso is "friendly folk and a welcoming place to relax"
The authentic smell of coffee, the sweetness of the cakes baking in the oven and the cocooning atmosphere of a small café, you know this feeling. Perfect for reading (books are available), warming up or chatting with friends, for sure you will feel good there.

Coffee forever
Here coffee is sacred, and only quality coffee is used. It’s composed of Gunnerbean offering a delicious blend of Colombian and Brazilian tastes, and of course you can feel it in the cup.
Roasted to bring out the chocolate and nutty notes, you can appreciate it as a simple espresso, or with milk in a flat white or latte and even with oats milk, you have multiple choices.

Let's talk about sweetness
The desserts are made in the café’s kitchen, with selected local ingredients. A large part of it is gluten-free.
We tested the raspberry chocolate cake and the chocolate lemon muffin. With each bite, you can feel that it has been lovingly cooked in the kitchen in the back shop. Very good and so soft. The quantity is a little too small (it's so good that you'd like to eat more…). The menu changes very often, so there are few choices but only homemade and quality desserts.
To sum up: the place keeps its promise
A good spot for coffee aficionados, good vibes only.
The prices are correct even if they remain a little higher than the average, due to the homemade quality. You can also buy your own Gunnerbeans coffee on site.
The café also is a little restaurant and offers breakfast menus, bagels, sandwiches.The warm staff is listening. The
place is true to its promise.
