"This is a spotlessly clean, bright airy, well decorated comfortable cafe. A breath of fresh air in West Calder. Or so I thought until we ordered scones with jam clotted cream. The scones were brick hard, dry tasteless. Such a disappointment! The jam was fine can 't go far wrong with jam, just scoop it out the jar. The 'clotted cream ' was that disgusting synthetic squirty stuff which looks like shaving foam tastes not much better.Such a shame you couldn 't bake your own scones or buy in some home baked ones from a local supplier. Your premises look the part the staff were friendly efficient. Just make a bit more effort on the ingredients your cafe could be very busy. We were there on a weekend the place was almost empty. I can 't comment on the quality of the other food you serve but when you can 't get the scones right, you are missing a trick."

This is a great wee place on the main street in West calder. They serve breakfast until 11.30am and then soups, sandwiches and toasties after that. They also have a great selection of home baking. Well worth a visit for breakfast or a wee coffee and a cake in the afternoon. Staff very friendly and everything is reasonably priced. Hope to go back soon.

Went here with my son on a wee drive oot for lunch, what a gem of a place, lovely fresh cooked food (two bits of cake went home with my son) cheerful friendly staff and great value for money, delighted that the background music was a favourite band of mine (Skipinnish) I shall be back It was a busy wee place but staff tell you how long your food will be all the better for having a chinwag with friends putting the world's to right.

I use CCS garage for MOT'S and popped in here for breakfast. Wasn't disappointed... (unlike last time when I decided to give the new cafe over the road my business). Been to thistles for lunch before but not breakfast. Thistles breakfast was cooked fresh.. arrived roasting on a hot plate. Tasty stornaway black pudding and everything else on my plate was hot. Served with toast and a hot coffee. At £7.50 I know where I will be going for breakfast next time I'm visiting ccs.

Had a wonderful lunch here today, as always fantastic food and wonderful service with a smile. Dedpite current restrictions and a wee bit less room we managed to be fitted in (thankyou so much). Despite being busy, with being acknoiwledged at the door and served with a smile. Food is always excellent here and soup, my husband says, is to die for as well as the merangues. Always a nice selection of cakes as well here if you just want a tea/coffee and a cake. But soup and range of rolls/paninis are very good. Well recommended.

Love this place for either a cooked breakfast, or in this case alight lunch. Glad I booked ahead as place was jumping. Despite being full my order was taken promptly and my wife and I always enjoy the banter from the friendly efficient staff( cheers Jane).The range of paninis sandwiches baguettes is excellent and there is very often a chef’s special to tempt you for something unusual.The soup sandwich deal is good value for money and the choice of fresh cakes/ desserts is mouthwatering- the large meringue is my favourite.My wife loves the range of flavoured coffees.The cafe has a loyalty card which I commend.I feel lucky to have this great eating place on my doorstep and highly recommend it...

Popped into Thistle’s for lunch on Mon31st. The Covid hygene is excellent with masks required until seated,hand sanitizers mandatory and effective screening between tables which are thoroughly cleaned by staff. My wife I felt very safe dining there and used their phone app for fest and trace data. The food is always freshly prepared and my Tuna Melt baguette was very tasty and was served with a nice side salad, homemade coleslaw crisps. My wife had her usual applewood smoked cheese toastie. which she loves. Washed down with two Bailey,s cream Lattés. Alas Bobby’s famous merengues we’re finished but this allowed us to sample a scrumptious Munchies cheesecake full of flavour light as a feather...
