YAYAS started as a small family operation with one simple goal: to serve great food at an affordable price. We noticed there wasn’t much in Glasgow that offered real, high-quality food made in open kitchens where people could see exactly what was going on. What began as a small local spot quickly became a hit in our community, and that’s when we realised YAYAS had the potential to grow beyond our neighbourhood.
At YAYAS, we’ve always believed food is about more than what’s on the plate. It’s about creating moments, building connections, and serving with genuine care. We put our heart into everything we make, from sourcing fresh ingredients to maintaining spotless kitchens and warm relationships with our customers. Every detail matters, because when someone walks through our doors, we don’t just want them to enjoy a great meal, we want them to feel like part of the family.
What sets YAYAS apart is our constant drive to be better. From our high-welfare chicken to our homemade Doner mix and signature sauces, we’re always experimenting, refining, and pushing ourselves to deliver something truly special. We don’t measure success by comparison, but by how much we’ve grown and improved as a team. Authenticity and trust remain at the heart of everything we do, and they’re the reason our community continues to love YAYAS.
