Smile Café: Authentic Italian Flavors Arrive at Strathclyde Business Park

Smile Café, a beloved Italian-style café nestled in Glasgow's city centre, has expanded its footprint with the opening of a second location at Strathclyde Business Park. The expansion follows a year of accolades, including sweeping three prestigious titles at the 2024 Scottish Cafe and Bakery Awards: Café of the Year for South West Scotland, Overall Café of the Year for Scotland, and Best Loved Café in the South West.

Originally opened in 2020 by owners Paul and Amy on Douglas Street in Glasgow, Smile Café quickly gained a devoted following for its warm hospitality, artisan coffees, and authentic Italian treats. Over the years, the couple have not only grown their business but also their family, welcoming two children and tying the knot, all while expanding their original café’s opening hours and cultivating a thriving local community.

Smile Café is best known for its top-quality Kimbo coffee and mouthwatering Italian fare, including fresh focaccia sandwiches, homemade soups, traditional pastries like cannoli and a rotating selection of specials. Whether you're stopping in for a quick espresso or a leisurely lunch, the menu is crafted with quality ingredients and passion.

The new location at Strathclyde Business Park brings this same culinary charm to a broader audience. Tailored for busy professionals and nearby residents, it promises the perfect balance of convenience and comfort, with the food available for sit in and takeaway.
