What thenonflyingscotsman likes about The Tinder Box:
The west end of Glasgow is full of wonderful coffee shops and cafes so picking one can be difficult so having Trip Advisor is advantageous .

Amazing you can serve without looking, speaking or interacting with customers. Coffee order was forgotten, left standing like a lemon, still no staff looked my way, finally served lukewarm tasteless coffee. Won’t be back. I don’t like giving negative reviews but in this instance can’t... View all feedback.

Very aggressive manager and quite persistent. The rest of the staff was lovely and the coffee was great. Hope this is fixed

First time visit. Had a lovely coffee along with some sweet treats. Service was very good and would visit again. Nice chilled place.

Tinderbox in Glasgow's west end offers a diverse experience, with mixed reviews on cleanliness and service. While some found the coffee and pastries exceptional and the atmosphere trendy, others were disappointed in the lackluster service and cleanliness of the premises. Despite the variety of opinions, Tinderbox remains a popular choice for a quick coffee stop or a leisurely break while shopping in Glasgow's vibrant city center. Choosing to visit Tinderbox may lead to a delightful experience, but visitors should be prepared for potentially inconsistent service and ambiance.
