A popular radio station is set to open a new cafe in Glasgow later this year.

Radio Buena Vida, Govanhill's online community radio station, announced on social media that they would soon be opening a cafe.

The radio station is back on air after moving to a new unit on Victoria Road where they are broadcasting live from a new window radio booth.

While the finishing touches are put on the sit-in cafe, Buena Vida will be serving takeaway coffee on their live broadcast days and encourage locals to come and check out the space.

The radio station broadcasts both emerging and established talents with the goal of making the new space a creative hub for music, arts and culture.

The cafe is a few weeks away from opening and will help support the radio station.
