A popular cafe has reopened after completing a 'major' revamp of the establishment.
Roasters cafe in Paisley is welcoming customers again from today (January 17) after shutting down at the start of the year.
The team took time off for ‘renovations’ which included creating a new menu as well as carrying out electrical and joinery works.

We previously reported how bosses wanted the restaurant to become, "The place to go, not in Paisley but including Glasgow too.”
Now after eight days of intense work staff are excited to show off the upgraded cafe which is based on High Street.

Owner Dan Smith announced on social media: “Life is short and you may as well have a damn good go at it.
“This is starting to feel real.
“I have goosebumps at the thought of opening and with all the help I just cannot wait for you guys, the BEST customers and community around, to come and be part of our journey in 2023.
“To everyone who has supported us past and present my gratitude goes beyond any words.
“YOU are the fibers of this business and are always welcome in Roasters.
“Thank you and we are headed for the moon.
“Let's do this together.”
Customers were quick to reply with their excitement for the relaunch.
One person said: “Can’t wait to see the new layout.”
A second person said: “This is so exciting for you, I can’t wait to come back for a new upgrade on the fab roasters!”
A third person said: “Can’t wait to come and try something new.. as long as I can still get Mac n cheese as a side.”
We previously reported how the cafe went viral after Dan responded to a negative Tripadvisor review in September last year.
It comes after the punter slammed them for “cheap” coffee and meat as well as accusing them of watering down their cocktails.
It was then Dan reminded the individual not to “rubbish someone else’s hard work" over their “stinker of a mood”.
The exchange was shared on social media by the Roasters TikTok page and gathered more than 33k views and thousands of likes.
Dan captioned the video: "A proper stinkin made up review by a mad moron, love it."
