5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Lovely relaxing atmosphere great location would definitely recommend to catch up with family and friends. . Great customer service and handy for byres road. 🙂

Went in this morning after being on nightshift so a bit tired and slightly grumpy, bought 1 reg tea and three cakes. (not all for me) When I opened up my tea there is half a cup, please, please, please ask your staff to fill up the cup it only hot water, people asking for a latte, mocha or any coffee get a full cup. I need my morning caffine fix to stop me being grumpy

I had a quick breakfast here a day or two ago as my usual haunt was closed It was a disappointing experience. My croissant was old and stale and my espresso very small indeed. The upholstery was not well cleaned or in need of renovation and the ambiance generally depressing. It has been a better experience in the past.

Massive thank you to the staff who helped me propose to my partner there last week. We had our first date in this Tinderbox on 17th of September 2022 and we met there a year later as part of our anniversary. I had already planned the proposal but I couldn’t have done it without the help of the staff. This place has such a special place in our hearts already, now it’s more than that. Thank you so much. Peter and Donna ❤️‍🩹

This is where we stop for coffee when on Byres road early if we are on a day trip to Glasgow. Pleasant member of staff, older lady. Coffee good and pastries were fresh, which was a concern as early Monday morning.

A formerly decent cafe made absolutely intolerable by using beepers to let people know when their coffee is ready, resulting in a constant cacophony of high pitched beeping in the background making it impossible to think or read.

We stopped by the shop as it was raining heavily. The coffee's fragrance was compelling enough to make us stay for a coffee. The staff were friendly. Overall, a great cafe at a prime location.

Good coffee, I can't really rate properly so a bit unfair to score high or low Definitely better than Starbucks etc. but not as good as some of my favourites. I would definitely buy another again so the three stars is more a lack of times I have visited and feels kinda harsh but also fair. Will update if I go back, staff were great but busy * Went back, coffee is good :-)

Much bigger than first thought, goes way back with lots more seating, good selection of food options, nice coffee

I arrived to the store in byres road to continue working from there, i sat down and starting my laptop, a lady from the staff came and told me that i need to order and i said will do thanks. 3 mins later approached me again and said if I you want to stay i need to order and i said will do then she said “you have been here for 15mins and you need to order otherwise you can leave” i dont appreciate as a customer to be treated like this in front of the other customers. Basically i was asked to leave because i did not order within the first 5 to 10 mins. - Will i go there again? definitely NO I WAS DISRESPECTED IN PUBLIC. -Will i recommend Tinderbox? Not sure, but i will always share my experience I always work from Tinderbox as it’s near where I live. I usually go there to have my coffee and work.

Does the job for coffee & cake or lunch. I’m more a fan of cute cafés with a nice interior & chatty staff, this café is more for the regular customer who’s stopping by for a quick break. Not particularly bad, just not the café experience I favour.

Lovely coffee shop in the west end and it’s open til 8pm. 🤓

The food selection should be shaken up ..the staff were very friendly (no west end coffee hipster sneer) ...its a survivor because people love it but they heed to keep improving the basics

Wonderful ice tea. Special thanks to Emily who served us very kindly and with a lot of warmth.

Rude aggressive staff…. Food just so so but $$$&&&&. Presentstion of food atrocious… they have much to learn. And staff needs sacking frankly. Certainly not a “cafe” worth crossing the road to get to…

Lovely staff clean venue 😊

Nice coffee shop in the west end, reasonably priced.

had a really lovely soup and coffee, served by the lovely Ian (I think that was the chaps name), will be back!!

Good value, food was delicious, staff very friendly too. Would definitely recommend.

Nice place to work from :) tasty coffee. Lots of students and popular but nice and relaxed.

The toasties and sandwiches are good, coffee is amazing however if you don't get a booth you end up sitting at an awkward table or uncomfortable bar stool. The people that work there are great and it's a very varied customer base

Great place to meet friends for chats while you enjoy good food and drinks.

Lovely cafe on the happening Byers Road, great coffee, smiling staff but the place is short on offering sweets for lactose/dairy intolerant customers, though soya milk is offered for your coffee. Pleasant atmosphere and good wifi.

Better than most chain coffee stores. A wee bit pricey though.

Many people came to eat here. The shop owner prepared hand sanitizer at the entrance. Service quiet good, we had our orders within 10 minutes. I gave three stars because the carrot cake was a bit dried and too sweet.
