    So we needed a pre-flight meal and decided to try out F&Bs for lack of many other options. I've only eaten at a F&Bs once before which was when I first moved to Scotland. I couldn't remember that experience so was interested to see what it's like. This one is at the top of the stairs once you've been through security. It's kind of dark inside and the lighting really needs to be improved - in the booth we were sitting in, I actually felt like I was under an interrogation light. Anyway, we ended up ordering a starter to share and a main each. We got the chicken strips and I got the penne chicken and mushroom for main. I was also having some rosé wine because holidays. The chicken strips were good. I really liked this. I wish I had them as a main. My main was terrible. Probably the blandest meal I've ever eaten. Ever. It just didn't taste like anything. The cheese crumb just tasted like bread crumbs, I couldn't taste any cheese at all. It was a big fat meh. And a pretty expensive one too at £11. I should have complained but I couldn't be bothered. Upside of the meal was the chicken strips, they were good. I liked the rosé. Our waiter, Liam, was probably the MOST chipper person I've encountered at the airport and you could tell he took his job really seriously. Not in an annoying way, he was very professional, friendly and polite. He's the reason this is 3-stars and not two. Liam, you rock.

    Skinny burger with zucchini fries
    Liis R.

    I've only been to Frankie & Benny's once before, and because of the stories i've heard about the whole franchise, it isn't exactly my idea of 'quality dining', but let me tell you, i was gobsmacked about the whole experience in the Glasgow Airport one! I chose the place, because out of all the others, it seemed to have the most healthy options (i was looking for low cal, but still a tasty meal). The waiter was really nice, chatty, welcoming; even consolidated a crying girl sitting a few tables from me.. I couldn't decide between their goats cheese salad or a skinny burger, which i mentioned, and i ended up getting the burger with zucchini fries - the waiter also had them add a wee extra bit of goats cheese with my salad just cus i couldn't decide earlier!! the taste was as expected, decent for a 'fast food' establishment such as Frankie & Benny's I had a few hours to kill before my flight, so i stayed and had a pick of their cocktail selection, which is also quite impressive. Ast got busier, the service still staid 5*, despite the waiter having about 5+ tables to keep an eye on. All in all, a very pleasant dining experience & i would definitely come back next time i've got time to spare at the airport! (only reason i gave it 4* in stead of 5* is cus i know a bit about how their kitchen works..)

    I stopped at F&B's at 4am right before I started my long journey home. The staff was warm, friendly, and professional and the food was outstanding. This was exactly what I needed before beginning a long international trip. The eggs Benedict is amazing and I highly recommend it.

    Avocado toast

    We always ate here before it moved location and it became a bit of a tradition before we flew off on holiday. Unfortunately we had an overwhelmingly negative experience. Despite the restaurant being virtually empty we waited for a table. We then waited about fifteen minutes before a drinks order was taken. The ordering process took a very long time. Then the orders came up wrong, with three of the four breakfast being incorrect. There was no tomato juice for bloody Mary's, no hash browns, no irn bru (we were told but seen lots of people get irn bru after we asked). The avocado toast I ordered was just avocado smashed on a slice of ciabatta it was barely toasted. Definitely won't be coming back next time!

    Cardosi's Restaurant - The meal is great! It makes you feel you are in Italy during that time! And the price is fair. Have to go their again!

Having visited the restaurant for years, celebrating all manner of things with my family, I can honestly say I consider it to be Paisley's best restaurant. The staff are attentive, friendly, knowledgeable and they make each experience - always a culinary delight - truly excellent. American and Italian influences are married beautifully; the latter being (thankfully) far more prominent leaving the former as an interesting accent. The resultant atmosphere is inviting, warm, relaxed and a pleasure to dine in. The lighting in the back is perfect and really makes Cardosi's a great place for a special occasion whilst the booths are somewhat secluded and provide for an intimate retreat in which to enjoy an afternoon or evening with good company. The menu has developed over the years but some signature dishes remain popular with my family; the simple Penne Alfredo is pasta perfection and the goats' cheese bruschetta (one of the four or so bruschettas offered) is divine. Presentation is thoughtful and consistent no matter which service you're enjoying; this is a testament to the kitchen staff as dinner can be exceptionally busy. Value is excellent, especially at lunchtime when two courses can be had for £9.50. Evening and pre-theatre are very well priced and do not overly restrict the diner. The à la carte options can be a little pricey but I have yet to be anything less than impressed by the choices therefrom. Recently there have been a couple of duck dishes on both the evening and à la carte menus which have been superbly executed. The Coppa Scozia, which raises the humble vanilla ice cream to dizzying gastronomic heights with the addition of crumbled Scottish tablet and hot caramel sauce, stands out from the dessert menu (but is equally matched by the rich and decadent cheesecake). Heralded by many as Paisley's go-to place for any special occasion, Cardosi's is unrivalled in the town and can hold its own against many of the reputable Glasgow restaurants. Whether you go for lunch or dinner, with a crowd or your significant other, you can be sure you'll be enjoying the very best that Paisley has to offer in quality dining.

    I can genuinely say that I have never had a bad experience with Domino's Pizza. The service when…read moreyou go in can be slow depending on what night it is i.e. start of the weekend etc. but the speed of the food really makes up for it. I myself prefer to order my pizza online via the iPhone app and I can honestly say it's never an issue with a great deal wizard at the end to help you save some extra pennies and when the pizza is in the oven you can see it through to the end if you're ordering in shop or when it is out for delivery if ordering via the app or Internet and 9 times out of 10 the food is with you in under 30 mins. They even made a late delivery a good experience for me; because they were running late back at the shop I ended up with an extra large pizza, so that's 2 pizzas for the price of one and it wasn't even on a two for Tuesday offer. My only negative is the price because if you were to go to the supermarket it is nearly half the price for the same kind of pizza but in my eyes it is definitely worth the treat.

This dominos is centrally located in the town centre so is ideal for collection or home delivery. Delivery is free so that is the option I always choose.

    All good. Staff are lovely…read more Pizza was remarkably good. It's a small restaurant and can get busy. I can imagine there are lots of birthday parties here so don't expect intimacy.

    Welcome to the cheap seats! We got our Tesco reward vouchers…read morewhich we duly quadrupled on line to Pizza Express redeemable vouchers. So with these in our hot little hands we made our way to Xscape on a Saturday afternoon. Why this one? Well Livingston is over subscribed later on a Saturday especially if Livvy are playing at home and there was some sort of demonstration scheduled for Glasgow centre. And the new motorway extension makes Xscape a scoosh to get to. Aaand I can drool at the £5K+ bling at Evans cycles so jobs a good un. Problem-can't get parked in the vast car park so had to drive round for 10 minutes and pounce on someone walking to their car. Xscape is massively busy on Saturday afternoons with parents eager to keep the sprogs occupied. Getting a table in Pizza Express wasn't a problem, less than half full. Planked our self down and a table of 12 weans trooped in right next to us so its now musical tables time. Moved over to the far side which doesn't make much difference to not hearing the excited bunch of kids as the restaurant is minimalist and very echoey. Now we are right next to one of the speakers playing some random modern jazz racket and a station where the staff throw their cutlery into. ...But I ain't moving again so on with the show 'cos I am hungry. Started with 2 types of Bruschetta, one normal and one with Richito peppers which had a good amount of heat to them. So far so good. Then we shared a Rustichella pizza on a thin base which had rather a lot of rocket and not much penceta and tomatoes. The Cesar dressing was particularly sharp as well. For dessert we opted for Dolcetti which is a half portion sweet/coffee combo. I got figs, mascapone and cinnamon syrup and wifey got gelato. The machiato coffee was passable, not great. The food prep area is open plan with the chefs in stripey tops which is supposed to make them look continental but we thought they looked like convicts. Service was organised and efficient. I like the Livingston one better as the decor is nice and classy. Xscape is reminiscent of a factory canteen. Pizza Express work hard for their corporate branding on their menu and website and bring some big name chefs into the mix. And also try to use authentic produce and recipes- I like this approach.

    I've been to this Pizza Hut quite a few times over the last 15 or so years…read more Recently my visits have been with work colleagues and the staff have always been accommodating when we have turned up, sometimes in a group of between 8-10. The layout has changed a lot over the years, but mostly cosmetic changes, but the menu hasn't varied much. The main reason for our visit is the buffet, for a freshly made pizza and a decent choice (vegetarians should look for the green handles). There's even a salad bar to add your own toppings or to have as a starter/side. They also have a Pepsi drinks dispenser where you can choose your own flavour of Pepsi, 7Up, tango etc (or if your adventurous try mixing the flavours) and I think they still have an ice creme machine for kids. For work lunches it's great as you don't have to wait around, just grab a plate, a glass and get stuck in. Staff have changed a lot over the years but they are usually professional and accommodating even if you have people in your party that are a bit more picky.

Great places and terrible places get reviews but when things are mediocre people usually think meh. What can I say I'm doing my bit for mediocrity everywhere. I come here semi regularly when taking my elderly aunt to the cinema. Please feel free to recommend me for a knighthood to Queenie. Every time I come here I always get a perfectly acceptable pizza and perfectly acceptable service. The pizza is in no way authentic and generally a tad on the greasy side however it tastes good. Now I know neither of these are particularly new or groundbreaking but being able to half and half on your topping is great when sharing with someone fussy. Also being able to get medium stuffed crust is also awsome, because well you just can't ever have too much cheese right? Generally 2 drinks 1 medium stuffed crust pizza and two bowls of unlimited salad bar (free with a man meal) £16.00 quid you can't complain too much. Salad bar borderline basic but again like everything else perfectly acceptable. All is all, I don't rush here, I don't look forward to eating here; but I never regret eating here either. It's the paradigm of mediocrity.
