Pink! If you ever want an unequivocal first impression – walk into this café in Finnieston and you’ll no doubt think ‘Pink!’. It’s all-pervading, from the splashes in the mock marble floor to the chairs, crockery and wall décorations of artificial flowers in multi-hues of pink. Needless to say, there generally isn’t a queue of hi-vis workmen waiting on rolls and sausage here – you’re more likely to catch a glamorous fashion shoot utilising the rose-coloured interior and photogenically dainty dishes. The menu is for all-day brunching, from smoothie bowls and gluten-free buckwheat pancakes in sweet or savoury, to sourdough toasts, open sandwiches and 'guacaroni' – guacamole and macaroni, of course. Dishes are decently done – pancakes with bacon are fluffy and filling, with a pretty sprinkling of flowers and leaves – and it's all helped by good produce including Peelham Farm bacon and sourdough from Glasgow’s Freedom Bakery.
