Breakfast is said to be the most important meal of the day. And while it does set me up, lunch is definitely not to be snubbed. After all, it’s what keeps me going.
I want to savour every moment of that sacred hour when I step away from work to enjoy something good. So I head to Riverhill Coffee Bar centrally located on Gordon Street.
Small but mighty tasty
Small but serving up a variety of mighty delicious food, it offers everything from sandwiches served on the most beautiful breads (hmmm ciabatta), to intriguing salads and an impressive selection of desserts.
Yes, dessert is a lunch must-have! Because who can resist ‘hot n horny chocolate cake’ – especially at only £2 a slice.
Even the traditional egg salad sandwich is beautifully presented wrapped up in paper and string – a wee edible present. If you want to try something a little more exotic, their shrimp salad sandwich on a luscious brown roll or beautiful bulgur wheat, lentil and feta salad are delish.
With an ever-changing menu, I’m spoiled for choice. And coffee lovers will not be disappointed – their Dear Green coffee is truly a beautiful thing.
Staff as sweet as their treats
And the icing on this sweet, sweet delight – the friendly staff are as lovely as the food. And it’s all at a great price; my sandwich and drink comes to a very reasonable £4. Seats are limited but take away is available.
So go on – put a spring in your step, liberate lunch and treat yourself to something wonderfully scrumptious.
