Cottonrake Bakery
This very popular little spot, opened in 2010,
is regularly queued around the block. And
no wonder: croissants, Portuguese custard
tarts, brownies and lemon meringue pies.
I don’t think I need to elaborate. Point made.
It’s Wine O’Clock
Vino Valentino
Finally arriving at wines and spirits, the old
trolley bag is straining under the weight of
our West End goodies. Slightly hidden off the
beaten track, take a trip to Vino Valentino.
Just off Byres Road in Chancellor Street,
you won’t regret taking the time to find it.
Passionate champions of Italian vineyards,
the team’s wines are personally sourced in
Italy. Stocking bottles of wine, of course, but
the real USP here is that many of their wines
are draft, therefore you can sample before
you buy. Leaving here you may need another
shopping trolley.
The Cave
15 years in Kelvinbridge, 400 craft beers,
unique liqueurs and top of the range spirits,
The Cave has all bases covered.
Shopping? Done (as Gordon Ramsay
would say).
