Reeling Festival 2025: All the food and drink on-site including Birch coffee

The Reeling Festival is Glasgow's summer celebration of Scottish contemporary folk music and the event will welcome some of the biggest names on the Scottish trad scene to Rouken Glen Park from Friday 6 to Sunday 8 June.
The 5,000-capacity event will see the Southside spot spring to life with world-class performances across two stages.
The event offers fun for all with a dedicated kids' area, 'The Weeling', as well as high-quality Scottish food and drink offerings from the likes of the popular Skye eatery Café Cùil.
As well as Cafe Cuil, there are other top food and drink spots to enjoy all weekend.
Festival founder and co-director of Skye Live Festival Michael Pellegrotti said: 'We've built on last year's incredible food offering with returning favourites like Dough Man's Land, Screaming Peacock, Rost, Planet G, and Street Scullery – and we've added newcomers like MacLove, Shawarmarama, and Yu-ca-taco. Whether you're vegan, carnivore, or somewhere in between, you'll eat well here.'
The Roll Shop
Clare Coghill
The Roll Shop is a one-off pop-up from Café Cùil and the chef and food writer behind ThatsYerDinner, is set to bring luxurious crispy rolls to Glasgow's southside as part of the Reeling Festival.
The menu is set to include Egg Bhurji with curried scramble and tattie scone, Slow Roast Pork Belly with hoisin 'broon' sauce and pickled cucumber, Skye Crab Roll, Chopped Cheese Haggis Roll, House Fries with Orkney cheddar and onion add-ons available, as well as a Cranachan Donut with a whisky cream.
Grant Reekie, chef, food writer and the mind behind ThatsYerDinner, said: 'As the baguette is to Paris, or the corn tortilla is to Mexico City, so is the humble morning roll to Glasgow. No butty, barm, bap or boule comes close.
'The Reeling felt like the natural first home for this partnership. It's a celebration of our city, and like the music at the Reeling, the food should have one eye on tradition and one on the present.
'We've put together a menu that truly showcases what a roll can achieve. Expect international, creative, and, above all, delicious fillings, all served in Glasgow's pride, the morning roll. And yes, there will be chips.'
Clare Coghill, founder of Café Cùil, added: 'The morning roll is of course a staple in Scottish culture, but it's also an ideal vehicle for exciting flavour profiles.
'Back when The Reeling first launched in 2022, Café Cuil ran a pop-up restaurant. We're delighted to be returning and knew we wanted to do something special for the festival's third year. What could be more fitting than a homage to a Glasgow delicacy?
'We'll be showcasing cuisines from every corner of Scotland and beyond, and we're beyond excited to share the menu today.'
Birch Coffee
Mr Pellegrotti said: 'Last year, Birch Coffee was such a hit we had to bring them back – and this year they're coming with more machines and more coffee to meet demand.
'They serve some of the best brews in Scotland, with locations in Portree and Inverness, and it's all run by Niall Munro, son of Runrig's Donnie. A perfect cup of coffee between sets is exactly what you need.'
Dough Man's Land
Set up by two Glasgow brothers, this converted horse box serves wood fired pizzas, and quickly.
Made using fresh, local ingredients, their oven reaches over 500 degrees, so the pizzas cook very fast.
When not catering weddings, festivals or corporate events, you can find them on Derby Street in Finnieston.
Screaming Peacock
It wouldn't be a festival without a burger and chips and luckily, Screaming Peacock are cooking up just that.
But these are no bog-standard burgers. From the classic beef to venison and pheasant, the van also has a range of loaded fries.
Rost
Ròst serves up a range of dishes using Scottish and local produce.
Festival goers can look forward to a menu of creative sliders, their own pastramis, slow cooked meats, game, fish, wild foods and salad specials.
Planet G
This plant-based food truck is the brainchild of Gemma and Marta who want to reduce their environmental impact through plant-based food without compromising flavours and protein intake.
On the menu you'll find loaded nachos, haggis pancakes, Italian kebab, truffle gnocchi and loaded smash potatoes among other dishes.
Streat Scullery
You'll know once you've found Streat Scullery as the team are cooking out of a custom-built American Airstream food truck.
The chef behind Streat Scullery is Scott Keenan, a fine dining chef to trade (from kitchens like Cameron House, Braidwoods of Dalry and Number 16 Byres Road), who now spends his days creating indulgent, accessible street food.
Expect tacos, bao buns and burgers.
MacLove
Mac and cheese fans should seek out MacLove. The team here make gourmet macaroni cheese pots from scratch with a three cheese blend and optional toppings that customers can tailor to suit them.
Some of the existing favourites include 'Mexican Mac', 'Bacon Mac' and the simple, yet effective, 'Mac Love', which includes crispy onions and parmesan cheese on top.
Offering favourites like "Mexican Mac" and "Bacon Mac," the menu also features the straightforward "Mac Love," topped with crispy onions and parmesan cheese for some crunch.
Shararmarama
This stall will be serving up super tasty middle eastern flavoured delights in street food style.
On the menu there's kebab wraps and shawarma fries with lamb, chicken and falafel.
Yu-ca-taco
When Kim Gemann and Liam Walls returned from travelling in South America to settle in Glasgow, they couldn't believe they were unable to find good Mexican cooking in their new home city. So they began cooking it themselves and their business Yu-ca-Taco began.
Starting from a food truck which served alternative, inspiring dishes at festivals, markets and food events, their popularity grew and you can now find them at many events all over Scotland.
Expect delicious loaded tacos with meat and veggie fillings and some nachos too.

Pride Edinburgh March 2025 brings colour to the city centre

Although the weather was slightly damper and darker than many had predicted on Saturday, the Edinburgh Pride march brought fun and colour to the city centre and old town, as thousands of people took part, including Scottish crime writer Val McDermid. Edinburgh was a sea of colour on Saturday as the city celebrated its 29th Pride parade, with the city painted with all the colours of the rainbow to promote inclusivity and diversity. The event has its origins in 'Lark in the Park' - an event organised by the Scottish Homosexual Rights Group in Princes Street Gardens in 1988. Six years later the first Pride Scotland March took place, with over 3,000 people taking part and enjoying a festival in the Meadows. There had since been 28 Prides in Edinburgh, due to a two year gap caused by the global pandemic, and pride and colour were yet again on show in the city centre on Saturday for the 29th hosting of the event in Scotland's Capital. 1 .
