Yes, I do love coffee!
After nearly 8 months of living in Glasgow I had yet to really explore the city, i mean of-course I had done the obvious Buchanan street and Sauchiehall street and those of such like: but I hadn't really ventured out! So I had sunday and monday off so I planned to do some serious exploring!
Sunday, I set my alarm for 11:00am, (quite early for a sunday) and left the flat for around 12, I was on a hunt for the nicest coffee in Glasgow. I am a little obsessed when it comes to coffee, I adore it, and cant truly express my love for the stuff! So as recommended by my big cousin Daniel I set off for Tinkerbox on Ingram street. So as I casually strolled down this pavement, I had total peace of mind, it was a side to Glasgow I had never seen, still city but quiet and everybody I passed seemed quite. The buildings were glorious, I want a flat there! Anyway I found this place that was raved about and well I was pleasantly surprised, the staff very pleasant and well that smell of fine coffee was in the air, instant hit! So I ordered my usual of a large hazelnut latte, (skipped the skinny milk because it was a sunday and well its just not right) and of-course a cake, being a sunday and all it would be rude not too. So I ordered a croissant, without sounding to well stupid, you can tell a lot about a place by the standard of there croissant, stale means they don't really care, soft and crispy on the outside well its just perfection. Well mine was to die for, slightly warmed obviously and a slap of butter, well lets just say it was something else. So as advised I took my coffee and pastry outside, sat in the glorious sunshine and enjoyed a cigarette and my new book. It was just peace, quiet and delicious coffee! You must go!
