We went to the Cup Tea Lounge in Renfield Street and were not disappointed. Just be aware that you only have your table for 90 minutes and you will be fine! Now the Scots are noted for their sweet tooth so the goodies did not let them down:-
The stylish interior of the Cup Tea Lounge |
The well stocked bar and note the Victorian tiles. |
A cool flute of prosecco. |
The dinkiest of milk bottles which you can buy
in the shop, although I don't take milk!
|
The cake tier - vanilla cup cake, lemon possett,
meringue, fruit loaf and shortbread. The fruit loaf
was so moist it was divine! I just wish one had
been allowed to choose the cup cake given the
selection they offer in the shop - see below.
|
The yummy sandwich selection - hot smoked
salmon, ham, egg,served on brioche rolls.
|
Plain and fruit scones brought to you warm from
the oven with the signature jam of the Lounge,
whipped and clotted cream.
|
The non afternoon tea - my friend had a ham
sandwich/toasty served with a lovely fresh salad.
|
And I think my friend's cup cake was caramel - yum! |
The cup cakes you can choose from to eat in or take away! |
This is making me feel hungry! |
Yummmmm. You can check out the fabulous range on their website www.cupglasgow.co.uk/ |
The main street in Glasgow -
Buchanon St where all the big shops are.
|
A stunning peacock sculpture graces one of the shop fronts.
We really enjoyed our stop over in Glasgow
and I will definitely revisit Glasgow soon! But we
had to go for our next train to take us far up North......
