I could not be happier with the help and consideration I was given at a very difficult time. Irene and Liam were a real comfort and handled the arrangements sympathetically, they were on hand at all times to offer support in spite of my last minute changes. I am very grateful to Mitchells for services rendered and would highly recommend to all.

  • 5 Tracy Malone 27th Apr 2020

    Liam went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect.  Also Donna the celebrant was outstanding would highly recommend Mitchell’s.  Some other undertakers should take a leaf out his book. Thanks again for everything x

  • 5 Raegan Perrie 30th Mar 2020

    From the very first point of contact, Liam, Irene and all the team at Mitchells were a wonderful help at such a difficult time. They are on hand all the time to answer questions and provide advice for you and they really can’t do enough to help you. The level of customer care and compassion provided is second to none. I had to plan my Dads funeral in the middle of the Coronavirus pandemic and at very short notice which made a difficult time even harder due to lockdown etc but the support provided by Mitchells was fantastic, you are always kept up to date with what they know and they give you the best advice they can, you can tell that they really value their profession. Liam managed to source me flowers the day before the funeral as all of the florists had closed and also sourced us a piper at short notice too which was exceptional as it gave us less to plan and worry about. Thank you to all at Mitchells for your help and support. 

  • 5 Heather Turnbull 22nd Mar 2020

    An excellent family run company whose dedication, compassion and attention to detail is outstanding and their care of my late husband was excellent. Myself and my family were treated with great kindness and I highly recommend Mitchells. I cannot praise them enough.

  • 5 Mary Forbes 16th Mar 2020

    Mitchell’s funeral directors organised my grandfathers funeral, they helped with every aspect and couldn’t do enough for my family. I would highly recommend Mitchell’s and would definitely use them again if necessary in the future. 

  • 5 Karen Boyd 10th Mar 2020

    Cannot praise Mitchell’s enough.a family run business with a heart at its core. Compassion, care and dignity for our mum was shown at all times from Liams kindness in the organising to Donna’s final farewell . If you’re reading this review you are still undecided..don’t look any further than Mitchell’s you will not be disappointed .

  • 5 Carlyn McQugh 14th Feb 2020

    When my world fell apart. I felt I could trust and talk to Mitchell’s Funeral Directors. I would strongly recommend Liam and his family. Genuine people who delivered the very bespoke service I wanted for my son Arrans funeral. They were open and honest with no hidden costs. Very trustworthy and genuine people.

    After scrawling the internet for a funeral director for my fathers funeral, I came across Mitchells Funeral Directors, and was immediately taken by their pricing. After searching for reviews, and after speaking with Irene online, my sister and I decided to put our trust in them, and it is a decision we have never regretted. As they are a family firm, and only have one parlour in Glasgow, they are happy to visit the homes of the bereaved family, which immediately puts you more at ease. Their classic package covered everything that we needed, and a few more items, and Liam's attention to detail and compassionate nature made a very difficult meeting a relaxed and friendly affair. No details were left to chance, with Liam only ever a text or an email away, and both he and Donna, the celebrant, passed everything through us for approval beforehand. The day itself was perfect, and dad would have been very satisfied and proud. I would have no hesitation in recommending this company to anyone looking for a family firm, at an excellent price, with no detail too much.

  • 5 Jacqueline McKay 17th Nov 2019

    What a lovely family run business. They keep you updated on each step and what happens next.They answer every question you may have. I felt like I was treated with respect and dignity through the whole process. Even on the day of the funeral I felt like they looked after me and my family's needs and that my mum was given the send off she deserved. The celebrant they use for service was great very attentive to every detail and was available to contact easily if changes needed made. I have used different funeral directors in the past and I will now always use Mitchell's if I need to again. Excellent in all areas
