Bensons Cafe (Glasgow Forge) 2023 : Review

Visit & Vibes

The guys at Bensons Cafe sent me a wee invite to come and check them out and have some lunch.

We set a date and I visited.

Inside is very nice, you have booths and tables down the middle. I was seated at a booth and it was very comfy, and I had a good view of the whole cafe.

The Food

The menu wow now this had a lot of options on it, and it was double-sided. There is definitely something for everyone, as it has a lot of tasty-sounding items.

While I was waiting to be seated I saw on the wall menu a chicken burger and I knew that’s what I would be having today.

Loaded Chicken Burger £n/a today (normally £7.50)
Our crispy, spicy chicken burger is topped with BBQ pulled pork, crispy bacon, cheese, and onion with sriracha mayo in a toasted brioche bun.

How good does that description sound, on arrival the burger looked as good as it sounded!

This was a messy burger to eat, so I did have to use a knife and fork but I loved every bite.

The chicken burger was lovely and tender with a really good crispness to it, then the sauce and cheese and everything else followed.

This was a REALLY good chicken burger! and I could have easily had another it was that good.

If you like chicken burgers I highly recommend this!!!

Side of Fries £n/a today (normally £3)

Yip along with my burger I thought let’s get a side of fries

On arrival, this was a BIG side of fries and they looked like very tasty chips.

The chips were perfectly cooked and had a nice flavor to them, I did feel they did require a wee bit of salt but that’s a personal thing.

This was a regular side, they do offer a large so I am glad I opted for the regular as you get a good-sized portion.

Millionaires Caramel Cake £n/a today (normally £2.00)

Yip, there is always room for something sweet and this cake caught my eye.

I took a bit of this and ohh this was really nice!!!

The base was lovely and light, and it had a good layer of caramel which is always the way it should be.

I would say this was the nicest Millionaires Caramel Cake I have had, mostly due to it being so light and still very tasty!
