A Glasgow food outlet has revealed the location of its third venue in six years.
Sprigg had previously teased plans for a new restaurant in the city after achieving resounding success with its Ingram Street and Sauchiehall Street spots.
Now a cryptic message on the windows of a new site on Waterloo Street has confirmed that Sprigg will launch there soon.

A sign at the new shopfront pays tribute to the definition of a ‘Glasgow salad’ – an age-old slang term for a portion of chips – now referring to Sprigg’s fresh bowls.
First arriving on the Glasgow food scene in 2018, the brand is known for its fresh salads, homemade soups, and baked potatoes.
Tom McDermott, who launched Sprigg six years ago, said: “Our new Waterloo Street store provides another spot in the heart of the city to keep doing what we love – offer an easy lunch option of fresh, delicious, made-from-scratch meals using whole, single-ingredient foods.
“Lunch in the city centre is busy again, and there’s demand for our version of the ‘Glasgow salad’ - it’s a great term to hijack because our salad bowls were conceived in Glasgow, for Glasgow."

Tom's aim is not only to provide Glaswegians with a fresh and healthy lunch but to ensure he will continue with Sprigg’s mission of being an ethical place to work.
He said: “We’ll be adding to our team, continuing to be accredited with Real Living Wage Scotland, pension contributions, guaranteed paid breaks, and rejection of zero-hour contracts.
"We work hard at Sprigg but I believe being part of a well-supported and hard-working team is the best environment to work in.”
As Sprigg continues to grow, the brand is on track for its first-ever seven-figure turnover, fuelled in part by a growing catering business.
The Waterloo Street location is set to open early 2025 and will offer the same array of made-to-order salads, soups, and drinks from local suppliers like You + I and the Good Coffee Cartel.
