Pollokshaws Rd0.7 mi from Shawlands centrelast reviewed June 2026

Rotating guest roasters with the espresso changing weekly and filter every day or two. The tasting notes are on the menu for a reason: this is a coffee bar where the sourcing is the point.

A Shawlands espresso bar built on rotating guest roasters, not a house blend.

Frankie Coffee★★ Specialty

A plant-based espresso bar in Shawlands that runs an Antipodean menu and knows why each item is on it. Order the magic.

Spider Monkey Coffee Southside★★ Specialty

A roastery-backed café in Shawlands where the coffee knowledge runs deeper than the postcode suggests. The southside stop for anyone who cares what ends up in the cup.

Dnisi★★ Specialty

A family roastery that has been in Shawlands since 2004. The rotating named single-origin programme is what gives regulars a reason to keep coming back.
