About the Vibe
Margot is the fresh-faced new café from the LeftField team, occupying the former Castello space on Barclay Terrace. It’s a box-fresh, double-level spot with green views and a minimalist vibe that feels more like a modern bistro than a traditional café. The menu leans into brunch and lunch with smart, locally sourced options like the pulled beef brisket sandwich and the croque Margot—a playful twist with pancakes and bechamel.

A fresh, modern café with serious food credentials
Margot has quickly become a go-to for a quality bite in Tollcross, thanks to the pedigree behind it from the LeftField team. The space is clean and bright, with plenty of natural light and a sleek, uncluttered aesthetic that makes it feel contemporary without being cold. The menu is concise but thoughtful—skip the generic toast and go for the pulled beef brisket sandwich with gochujang mayo; it’s a meaty, flavour-packed doorstop that’s become a local favourite. Their house-made rhubarb soda is a refreshing touch, and the sourdough with Rhyze mushrooms is a solid vegetarian option if you’re after something earthy and umami-rich.

Margot s'est rapidement imposé comme une adresse de référence à Tollcross, portée par le savoir-faire de l'équipe de LeftField. L'espace est lumineux et épuré, avec une ambiance moderne qui ne sacrifie pas le confort. Le menu est court mais pertinent : évitez les classiques trop basiques et optez pour le sandwich au bœuf effiloché avec mayonnaise gochujang, un vrai succès local. Leur soda à la rhubarbe maison est une touche rafraîchissante, et le pain au levain aux champignons Rhyze est une excellente option végétarienne pour les amateurs de saveurs umami.
