Good menus choices and some very tempting cakes - at good prices. Cater for both sit in and take away. Had a really tasty breakfast roll and hot drink. Nice wee seating area outside on the square too.

This is the best cafe in Paisley/Renfrew. I went this morning for breakfast not looking my best, and the owner(?) was great. Great prices, best breakfast I've had in my life, great location, great decor. Thank-you!

The main square of Medieval town of Paisley in Scotland. Medieval feelings of the ancient Main Square have been keeping that fragment of the glorious past of brave Scotland.
