Here are some of the best tiny restaurants to grab a bite to eat in Glasgow.

The Cheese Box - Wilson Street

Despite being located inside a classic police box, The Cheese Box is not bigger on the inside, providing no indoor seating to patrons.

However, the street food spot is a must-visit for lovers of all things cheese and is best known for its Raclette Toasties - a dish popular in Switzerland.

Located in a tiny basement just off Charing Cross, The Caprese has made a name for itself as a popular haunt for the city's famous faces.
