About Jessie Biscuit
On Station Rd in Glasgow, Jessie Biscuit is a coffee shop and cafe serving a daytime-only menu. Cakes are baked fresh daily, alongside sandwiches, baked potatoes, and soup. Gluten free options are available on the menu as well. Seating is walk-in, and the space is small, so tables can be limited when the shop fills up. Outdoor seating extends the room when the front opens up, and a step-free entrance makes the shop accessible to visitors with mobility needs. High chairs are available for families with young children. The shop opens daily during daytime hours only.

Customer Review Summary
Homemade cakes baked fresh each day are the main draw, with reviewers singling out the fruit cake and strawberry cake and saying the baking tastes real rather than shop-bought. Soup comes close behind, described as great, filling and served hot. The scones, a tuna sandwich, a baked potato and the bread also earn praise, and one reviewer calls the coffee magic. Gluten free options are called pretty good and decent compared with competing cafes. Staff are repeatedly described as friendly and helpful, and several mention fast service even when the place is packed. The recurring drawback is space. Reviewers describe the cafe as small and cramped at the lunch rush, one notes a single worker trying very hard to keep up, and one would recommend it only to those lucky enough to get a table. One reviewer finds the variety of cake just ok. When the sun is out, the front of the shop is opened up to let the warmth in.

“Fabulous, friendly and utterly charming with the best cakes and soup anywhere!! Love it. Staff are so lovely, helpful, friendly and look after everyone individually no matter how busy they are. The cakes are baked by them every day and are so good you don't feel guilty eating them! Go and treat yourself. A tiny gem.”
