Valaria is a nice, friendly local hangout and a good place for brunch, hot chocolate and baked goods (great gluten-free, vegan chocolate brownie, which is no small feat..). Decor is very cute too. The pricing is slightly on the expensive side though for the portions (a bit small) and quality of foods (decent, but nothing amazing either), and when in peak hours, service can be a little too slow and evasive, despite the staff’s kindness. The automatic 10% tip on your bill is also a bit surprising.

I've been to Valaria several times now and have had nothing but good experiences. Food is always lovely, the pastries are always impressive. The staff is always friendly and attentive. It seems to me most of the negative reviews are stingy people grumpy about fhe service charge (which I feel is completely normal for Byres Road) Every time I have been to Valaria it has been worth every pound. P.S. Be sure to get the Parisian hot chocolate its amazing!

The food was good and we were seated quickly. Unfortunately it took about 30 minutes to get our sandwiches heated and served. There was also an “optional” 10% service charge. Tips should be given not taken. It’s also awkward to ask for it to be removed.
