Spacious, bright and quirkily rustic basement café and bakehouse on Garnethill, serving refined all-day breakfasts and lunches.

The 2017 edition of The List's Eating & Drinking Guide is out now – only £5.95 (+p&p).

Since opening in late 2015, Singl-end has seen a steady growth in popularity which has led to it becoming one of Glasgow’s most talked about cafés – and there’s plenty of justifiably reasons for that. From a glance around the room on first arrival it’s clear to see that everything has been well considered; the interior is rustic and arty without trying too hard, staff are friendly and happy to chat without being over attentive, and the menu – specialising in breakfasts, brunches and an array of top-class cakes and bakes – incorporates dishes that cater to various dietary requirements in a way that ensures no customer is made to feel as though they are being picky or difficult. When the café stops service to the public in the evenings, the space can be hired for events, and is even gaining a reputation as a desirable wedding venue.
