Nearest thing to having street food in Korea. I had the Beef bibimbap and it did not disappoint. Good food and value for money. Don't expect a Michelin star restaurant furnishings - wooden forks, biodegradable plates, bench tables and stools with no back rests. Very limited seating. Some Koreans were eating there, always a good sign.
To quote Arnie... A'll b bachk, really soon for the fried chicken, looked yummy....

Was in for lunch yesterday. Gochujang fried chicken was so delicious and full of flavour. Friendly staff and easy self order machine provided. Definitely the most recommended place for Korean fried chicken. Will be back!

Absolutely love this place, been here so many times over the years. Highly recommend the soy garlic and gochujang fried chicken as well the bulgogi loaded fries. The portions remain generous and delicious.

5 stars for the food alone and 5 stars for service as it's self-service. Order from the machine on the wall and take a seat if you can find one. Great to share seating with strangers and meet new people.
I used to go to Kimchi Cult when they where in London and the qaulity of food hasn't changed one bit. Best Korean BBQ in Glasgow by far.

I had been meaning to try this place for a while based on recommendations and overall it was pretty good and I would be happy to return. I had the vegetarian (mushroom) bulgogi bibimbap and an iced lemon tea. Both were pretty tasty and reasonably priced with good heart portion sizes. The decor was also pretty cool.
I do have a few points of feedback though, for example it took quite a while for our order to arrive. In fairness, the waiter warned us when we arrived that it would be around 10 minutes for food orders, and I also liked that he asked us if we'd been to Kimchi Cult before so he could explain to us how ordering works. However, in reality it was 10 minutes for the drinks and at least 20 for the food. I don't know if the kitchen was prioritising delivery orders or what but it was too long to wait in what is supposed to be a 'street food' or 'fast food' style place. The other downside was the use of disposable plates and cutlery even though we were eating in. This felt a bit cheap and also meant the bibimbap was pretty lukewarm by the time it got to us. The floor was also pretty dirty even though at that point in the day it hadn't rained much.
Despite the above, I would happily go back if I was in the area and the issues I have mentioned are easily resolvable.

Bulgogi fries are the best loaded fries in Glasgow. Small venue so can’t always get a seat.

Two words to describe the yummy food served by Kimchi Cult! Ordered the chicken bimbibap, kimchi cheese fries and gojichang fried chicken and all three times were so delicious. I love that the fries were not soggy even with the cheese topping, the chicken was crispy on the outside, tender, juicy and hot in the inside. Bimbimbap was flavorful.
This place serves up great food and friendly staff.

The place is small but offers good korean food. I got beef bulgogi without egg. It was good, quantity was more than enough for a person. I cannot finish in one go. I think this is on cheaper side and quantity is good so would definitely suggest for a budget friendly korean place to eat.
