👍👍 There's never a time that I haven't enjoyed D'nisi's. I used to stay in Shawlands and it was the pit stop at the end of most days, with breakfast at the weekends. Definitely recommend. People often mention coffee, staff, good, lovely, nice, cafe, friendly, breakfast, scone, service,

    Nice interior. Bright seating area at window. One small point, I think the door to the W.C. should have a self-close arm on it as sometimes the door was left open . It's a bit unpleasant eating and viewing the interior of the toilet.

    Always cancels our orders on Just eat. Not sure why they advertise that they offer delivery service but can never commit to it. We don’t live very far away, so not sure what their problem is. The food is quite over priced as well. Definitely other better options in the Shawlands.

    Nice wee coffee shop. Not sure how to pronounce the name though so I won't be able to tell anyone about it for fear of looking like a fool.

  • 5/5 Alex R. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely amazing cafe, staff are always friendly, service is amazing, you get a loyalty card to build up points for every coffee and things to eat. Coffee, frappe, hot chocolate, smoothies and milkshakes taste amazing. Can't fault it and would highly recommend

  • 3/5 Sandy M. 1 year ago on Google
    Disappointing visit this afternoon. Very poor coffees. Very little taste to the coffees. Obviously using poor quality coffee to try and keep the price down. Have not been for a while and always loved the coffees and the food but very disappointed this visit.

  • 3/5 GfB 1 year ago on Google
    Lovely little space for a coffee. Friendly staff. Disappointed with the coffee I ordered though. Asked for some sugar free syrup and it came as if there was a full bottle in it. It was so sweet I was unable to drink it. The food was good but for the price you'd expect it to be and I suppose when your coffee is undrinkable then it's not worth it, sadly.

  • 2/5 Stephen L. 1 year ago on Google
    Not great considering prices charged, finished coffee before. We even got toastie wouldn't recommend service less than poor, I have one in my home town substantially better than this lots of staff all talking to each other not actually doing much, toastie was nice when it eventually came.

    Lovely cafe on main drag Kilmarnock Rd South side Glasgow. Home made scones and pastries are a delight. Nice friendly staff and good service. My friend had a full breakfast which had the works + toast. I had delicious French Toast with bacon and maple syrup. Pots of tea rounded things off nicely. A winner on all counts.

  • 5/5 Catriona C. 1 year ago on Google
    Very cosy atmosphere, staff is lovely and the bacon roll was delicious 😋 absolutely recommend for breakfast!

  • 5/5 Jen B. 1 year ago on Google
    Great wee cafe. I only had a scone and coffee , but both were delicious. Obviously caters for a local community as well as those from further afield, and the staff were friendly and warm to both.

  • 5/5 smudger831 1 year ago on Google
    Stopped in for breakfast and they had a good choice of items. I had the pancakes and bacon with maple syrup and although it's quite straightforward it was delicious.

  • 5/5 Laurence M. 9 months ago on Google
    Such a fabulous cafe. Coffee is excellent and the cannoli super. Menu looked just right and not too fussy or expensive. Staff are what makes a good cafe into an excellent one. Nothing seemed too much trouble and the service was very friendly. Probably the best cafe on the South Side. So glad we stopped by. We will make a point of it next time.

    Good place to get a bit of work done, good location, good coffee and nice staff. Would recommend.

  • 4/5 john c. 4 years ago on Google
    Visited many times. Food lovely, staff lovely but today, the noise from a member of staff crashing the cutlery and dishes down spoiled it a bit for us. We will be back though. Shhhhhh

  • 2/5 The G. 4 years ago on Google
    I popped in today after being recommended by a friend while I was in the south side. I asked for a chicken salad roll and a cappuccino. £8.40 !!! I said that’s a bit pricey and the girl replied - I don’t set the prices. Well I don’t pay those prices so I asked for my money back. 8.40 for a chicken roll and a coffee! No danger.

  • 5/5 Roy C. 4 years ago on Google
    Great cafe and I love the scone selection. Always busy.

  • 2/5 Vicki H. 4 years ago on Google
    Had a good lunch here before but was disappointed with brunch today. Long wait for overcooked eggs, burnt toast & undercooked sausages. Also it was a freezing cold day & the cafe wasn't very well heated. I won't hurry back

  • 4/5 Jim M. 4 years ago on Google
    Always good/pleasant staff.Coffee and food excellent and nice atmosphere

  • 3/5 Anwari D. 4 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 Nicola T. 4 years ago on Google
    Had a lovely breakfast in here. Lovely vibe. The cakes looked amazing but too full this time to try.

  • 1/5 james r. 4 years ago on Google
    This place has been unorganised for a few weeks now. Seams to have a new team leader or supervisor and her people skills are not the beat with her staff and the customers.

  • 4/5 Catherine B. 4 years ago on Google
    Enjoyed a soya latte and scone . Very pleasant . Scones are different flavours . The menu caters for different dietary needs , although as it is a small premises they cannot guarantee no cross contamination . It is popular so it is busy . Close to shops and public transport .

  • 1/5 Dave A. 4 years ago on Google
    Long wait for a weak coffee with a floating hair in it.

  • 5/5 David L. 4 years ago on Google
    A bit overpriced but that's fine as that keeps any riff raff away. Nice vegan cakes.

  • 5/5 Aptin B. 4 years ago on Google
    Great coffee and scones

  • 2/5 Katie M. 4 years ago on Google
    Not good! Overpriced, slow service and toilets were unclean. Saying that, the coffee and scone were tasty and the girl who served me was really pleasant.

    Lovely staff, lovely coffee. Marks off for the pizza. Still a nice place to go for a coffee.

  • 5/5 John H. 4 years ago on Google
    First class home baking and soup

  • 1/5 Gemma 4 years ago on Google
    Completely over priced for what you get ordered an Americano and roll with bacon and scone. Specifically asked for the roll to be buttered, it came with barely a scraping, the 2 tiny slices of bacon were rock solid as though they had been lying keeping warm all morning, the Americano was that bad i couldn't even drink it was luke warm and just tasted of coffee flavoured water. First time coming here and will definetly be the last *edit this cost me £5.60

👍👍 An excellent experience at Miller and Carter tonight. The food came out quickly and was so incredibly delicious - the steak was cooked to perfection and the beef dripping sauce was to die for!
