A top TV chef and her podcast star daughter have visited one of Glasgow's oldest cafes. 

Andi Oliver and her daughter Miquita posed with staff at the University Cafe on Byres Road in the West End. 

The pair indulged in a Knickerbocker glory which is a layered ice cream sundae usually served in a tall class. It can be packed with cream, ice cream, fruit, and meringue. 

British chef Andi is known for her hosting duties on the Great British Menu while her daughter Miquita shot to fame as the presenter of Channel 4's Popworld. The 40-year-old now hosts a BBC Sounds podcast Miss Me? with her lifelong friend and popstar Lily Allen.

Taking to Facebook, University Cafe posted: "Had a nervous day being critiqued by chef Andi Oliver and her daughter Miquita.

"All went well tho and they finished with a knickerbocker glory so that should help with the marking."

It is not known why the pair visited the cafe but they previously produced a show together for BBC called The Carriebean with Andi and Miquita. They also star in the podcast Stirring It Up. 

Fans were delighted to see the celebrity mum and daughter team with many taking to Facebook to wish the long-established cafe well. 

One said: "They didn’t have an Irn Bru float?!? They missed themselves."

Another added: "We love you regardless of the critics."

University Café was first opened by Pasquale Verrechia on September 1, 1918, and he has passed the business down across four generations.

The late legendary American chef Anthony Bourdain once visited the café and ordered haggis along with fish, chips, and curry sauce.

He recalled the meal in a 2015 episode of his Parts Unknown series and spoke of the ‘great pleasure’ of the culinary experience.
