Excellent value lunch, had the Lentil soup, delicious. Staff are very friendly.

This is my go-to place to get food on campus. It's far less noisy than the Student's Union across the way, and has a nice relaxed vibe. Staff are friendly, and always make time to talk - and they seem quite happy in their job which is always nice to see. The usual mix of cold drinks, pre made sandwiches and a limited selection of hot food is available and all quite tasty. Space is quite limited, and the canteen portion seems to be lacking sanitation stations which is a bit concerning. Other than that, I quite enjoy having my lunch in the Gilchrist.

I was not ready for this kind of service when I first visited but the cafe waited on me with 3 servers even wiping my mouth between bites of a very fine Huckleberry caviar and lobster and blue swimming crab sandwich. They ordered me a taxi home on completion of my meal and have bought me new socks every week since! Beat that Gregg's?

S. P.

It's a wonderful cafe. Very spacious with a wide variety of hot anf cold beverages, snacks and sandwiches to gormandize.

Best place for coffee (and decent range of liquors if you feel like it) in the UofG premises. It's a shame the paninis are no longer what it used to be (which was so good)! Can get very crowded at times.

J. H.

An unexpected find - good quality fare at budget price.

J. H.

Good quality and value food and drink; nice surroundings and atmosphere. Staff excellent. Only fit University of Glasgow staff and post-grad students, however.

A. M.

Good coffee, especially the sugar free hazelnut cappuccino, and nice friendly stuff. Also top-notch paninis for a very modest price👌🏻

K. P.

I was away for a while and was delighted to see how they've fixed up the placed so nicely. Now there's more space to dine as the classroom now doubles as an additional eating are. The ambience is great! Very cosy. Also, happy to see that patrons can now choose their sandwiches etc. This makes for greater efficiency on the part of the staff. Love, love, love the panini with vegetables and crisps. Perhaps more meal deals could be made available.

Crowded on weekdays but silent and lovely at weekends

Gilchrist is where my classmates and I and almost everyone I know likes to spend their free time. The staff is very friendly and always greets students with a pleasant smile, somehow making the hectic student life a little better. I even appreciate the music they play during the evening, which is quite soulful. Moreover, the place grants easy access to all areas of the university. Food wise, I appreciate the offerings they have on their shelves. I usually go for a coffee or maybe a meal deal (which is £3.5).

Great place for post grads and staff of the University of Glasgow. Service is quick and the coffee is decent. Student rates . Not a lot of seating space unfortunately, bit a good place to work/study/socialise if you do manage to grab a seat. They do a variety of snacks and sandwiches as well as soup quite often.

C. L.

The coffee here is bigger and better than the one in the library or the Fraser building. Staff is friendly and their soups are alright. If you're lucky and snatch a space by the group study tables in the back of the cafe, you'll get a great study space. What I like about it the most are the long opening times.

C. T. C. J.

Great staff, talkative and very good service. As a PhD it is nice to meet and spend time with students in my similar demographic as an upperclass student in research. It's nice to run into our professors when I'm taking lunch or snack.

M. S.

Cosy, amazing people behind the counters, best place to go after a PG lecture to unwind and get good coffee and pastry.

A. M.

Small cafe within the Main building of University of Glasgow. Small size means not a large choice of hot food, however the panini's are very tasty. Cold sandwiches are also available. Also has a bar. Pretty good for it's size.

A. B.

I'm so glad the Gilchrist exists, it's one of my favorite things about Glasgow uni. The prices are really good and they have a good selection of food and drinks. They even serve alcohol. It's a great place for meeting or just studying alone and it has designated spaces for group work and a meeting room.

N. K.

Fanstastic really nice cosy place for meetings and coffee break after lectures or any other time. Very good prices and very cheap ideal for students. You should definitely try the paninis which cost only £2.88 and also the orange chocolate cake as well !

C. E.

Alway are great place for meetings on campus - Covid measures are in place and working well. Staff as friendly as ever.

E. T.

Great university atmosphere in this bar: good tea, animated chatter, large tables for work, ideally located in beautiful historical Glasgow university.

If you are a stuff or pg student in Glasgow university don't bother going anywhere else. Best cappuccino with the best value around hillhead area at the time of writing

B. W.

There with a friend, it was a lovely environment and I can't wait to get back. It has a descent menu too and plenty of seating.

K. W.

As good a coffee as you'll get on campus. Meal deals, beer and cakes available too if you don't have too much research keeping you.

A. S. R.

(Translated) Coffee is better than a library. It’s a graduate student and a faculty member. But in fact, the undergraduate course is OK. (Original) 咖啡比图书馆好喝~说是研究生和教工才能进去，但其实本科也可以啦

M. R.

(Translated) Good attention!! (Original) Buena atención!!
