Matilda’s

Last year, Meghan Trainor had a big hit with All About That Bass.

Team Big Deal are working on their own version – All About That Cake.

Stay on top of the patisserie pop parade with today’s Big Deal on afternoon tea for two at Matilda’s on Byres Road.

Serious patisserie talent

This light, bright and friendly café bistro features a crack team of very experienced chefs, including some serious talent in the patisserie section.

They bake everything fresh daily in Matilda’s basement kitchen and the fruits of the chefs’ labour can be seen in Matilda’s mouth-watering window displays of cakes, gateaux and tarts.

Great cake selection

Available Monday to Friday, from 2pm to 4pm, today’s Big Deal is for two people to each enjoy an afternoon tea at Matilda’s.

Served on a swish, three tier cake stand, your afternoon tea at Matilda’s will feature a selection of sandwiches followed by freshly baked scones with preserves and clotted cream.

The exact selection of cakes may change but guests can then look forward to delights such as fresh fruit tarts, chocolate and caramel éclairs, chocolate brownies with mascarpone and berries or coffee and walnut cake.

Afternoon tea comes with tea or coffee. 

Happy diners

Matilda’s customers have not been slow to share their experiences of the West End venue on its 5pm page where Matilda’s currently has a combined score of 4.3/5.

This is what a recent visitor had to say:

‘Terrific tea. Great little place with first class afternoon tea!’ Rating 4.8/5

Tea with a friend

As we mentioned, Matilda’s is on Byres Road.

It is within easy walking distance of the Botanic Gardens and Kelvingrove Art Gallery.

Today’s Big Deal would fit neatly into an afternoon spent strolling around the West End with a friend.

It would be ideal for a catch-up with a chum or a wee treat for a family member.
Take up today’s Big Deal with Matilda’s and tune into afternoon tea.
