A restaurant and bar in the basement of an ex-church now concert hall. Clearly a local institution and was taken there by a near-local (well, Camberslang). Spent a very pleasant and fun afternoon in one of the booths over a long lunch. Great food and the staff are the best Glasgow has to offer. Very chirpy and helpful. Somewhere to... More

If you don't go for the 5pm menu it can work out quite pricey. Very dark and dingy so don't go on a sunny Saturday afternoon. Went around 1pm and we weren't offered a lunch menu - just the normal a la carte. One of my party had the mac and cheese with smoked haddock from the specials board. £12.95!... More

Fantastic food and great value! We had the 3 couse meal with a bottle of wine for two which is excellent value for the quality of food that was served. 6 of us were placed in a booth which is great for a group of friends. Food was excellent, very tasty and portion sizes were just right would definitely recommend!

What a great find Café Source turned out to be! Reception at our hotel hadn't heard of it so we didn't know what to expect but they asked us to report back which we did with pleasure. The restaurant is in a lovely location in the crypt of St Andrews in the Square church, which added to the enjoyment of... More

We visited on Saturday 27th April family of 6 and had the lovliest evening with wonderful food served by staff who could not have been more attentive and frinedly. The locally sourced food was cooked to perfection and we were hard pushed to choose what to have as my daughter who is vegetarian and very fussy was completely bowled over... More

Visited cafe source for a friends birthday where last Friday of each month they have entertainment....food was really good, a little cramped, but that maybe due to the band being quite special and busier than normal. Would recommend for something different.

I had an early dinner at Cafe Source this evening with a friend, there was a reasonably wide range of food choices but the pre-theatre menu was not offered although when we asked for it, it was then given without fuss. Starters of haggis pakora & crispy goats cheese risotto balls were yummy but the mains were a little flat;... More
