Zest - Biggar
About This Spot
Stepping into Zest feels like finding a quiet corner of warmth on a bustling High Street. The pace here is easygoing, with a gentle hum of conversation mingling with the clink of cups and the welcoming smile of familiar faces behind the counter. It’s the kind of place where time slows just enough to savor small moments — whether that’s the first sip of coffee or a brief pause from the day’s rush.
This Biggar café carries the comfortable rhythm of a well-loved neighborhood spot. The mood is unpretentious yet attentive, inviting visitors to settle in whether they’ve popped in for a quick bite or linger over a leisurely catch-up. There’s an understated confidence in how Zest approaches its food and drink — every detail crafted thoughtfully to enhance simple pleasures.
What draws people back isn’t just the inviting warmth but the sense that here, a sandwich or a morning coffee comes with its own kind of care. The house-favorite offerings, from hearty baked treats to richly brewed beverages, feel personal — the kind of flavors that linger softly in memory, coaxing a daydream about that perfect midday snack or the satisfying comfort of a full Scottish breakfast.
While it’s easy to imagine footsteps hastening by on High Street, inside Zest there’s a quiet reassurance that some things are worth slowing down for. Whether you’re a local making this your regular stop or a traveler discovering it by chance, the café feels like an invitation to pause and enjoy the neighborhood’s everyday joys in good company.

Lovely coffee shop/snack bar. Pleasant staff. I'll come back for another Latté ;0)

On a trip to Scotland, I randomly popped into Zest and had the best tuna mayo sandwich I’ve ever tasted. The bread was incredibly soft, and the tuna mayo was perfection. I still dream about that sandwich and am heartbroken I can’t have it again now that I’m back in the States.

Called in when passing by, got a roll n sausage with brown sauce n onions. Absolutely delicious, must be the best sausage I've had from a takeaway, just melts in the mouth and tastes terrific...10/10 I've been back a few times now, and can thoroughly recommend the full breakfast. £4.50 for sausage, egg, beans, bacon, black pudding and haggis and tattie scone. The quality is remarkable for the price, give it a go!

Great place for a lunchtime snack & a coffee. Had to make a couple of attempts to get served due to a couple of lingering tourist types as well as it being the school break-time, so the place was heaving (always a good sign) Had a really good bacon and Lorne sandwich baguette, and a coffee. Great service and good banter about the mad folk of Elsrickle Will use this place again if they are open next time I am passing through!

Amazing menu. My son had the full English breakfast and declared the best he'd ever had. All 7 parts for £4.20 Incredible value
