I can't thank the Mitchell family enough for everything they done for myself and the kids liam kept in contact with me makin sure wee were ok went above and beyond his call of duty and Scott's day was perfect flowers were Amazing

Ailsa Morrison 25th Nov 2019

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.

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

  • 5 Lucia Pacitti 31st Oct 2019

    Liam and the family at Mitchell's couldn't have been more caring and compassionate when arranging my fathers funeral.

  • 5 Mary Hendry 30th Oct 2019

    Irene and Liam were so kind and thoughtful throughout the whole  difficult process of organising Dad’s funeral. Their recommendations of celebrant, florist and venue were spot on- they really listened and that meant we were able to say goodbye and celebrate Dad’s life the way he would have wanted us too.  Can’t thank them enough and happy to recommend them.

  • 5 Carmel Massey 30th Oct 2019

    Highly recommend, absolutely no sales pressure. Our family dealt with Liam, who was professional, understanding and informative. Our funeral arrangements went so smoothly. Our celebrant Donna was amazing. They made a difficult time so much easier for us. 

  • 5 Donna Ball 26th Oct 2019

    Very compassionate and professional service from start to finish.  Funeral tailored exactly to our wishes. No hidden charges.  Would highly recommend Mitchell Funeral Directors.  

  • 5 Margaret Camley 21st Sep 2019

    I have had to arrange 3 funerals in the past few years. Mitchell's Funeral directors were recommended to me for the most recent one.
    They were absolutely wonderful and in a different class to the funeral directors I had used before.
    I have told everyone how brillant they were. The service they gave was very personal, professional and tailored exactly to my needs.
    They were supportive and caring.
    I feel they were almost like friends of the family.
    They made this very difficult and stressful time much easier for me and my family.
    The funeral itself was perfect and a wonderful tribute to my late brother.

  • 5 Gary McKee 20th Sep 2019

    Liam and the other family members made the hardest of days that little bit easier. They were very professional and offered a great service. I would recommend them to anyone looking for a funeral undertaker.

  • 5 Maureen Gaughan 11th Aug 2019

    Really couldn't have asked for a better service, nicest people you could possibly meet, extremely professional and accommodating. Family run business who really take the stress out of it and clearly care about who they are dealing with.

  • 5 Joanna Jordon 17th Jul 2019

    First class service from Liam and his team. They organised everything from the flowers, newspaper notice to the order of service booklets and all for a fantastic price. Would not hesitate to recommend them to others.

  • 5 Colin Yule 24th Jun 2019

    Irene and Liam were exceptional in their advice, kind understanding. They made the whole "process" easier to deal with at a very difficult time. Moreover, their costs were easy to understand and extremely good value for money.

    I found both Liam and his mum not only professional but kind and empathic, lovely people. I liked them both straight away and I trusted them to look after my mum. When she was in their care they were kind enough to follow my wishes of not covering her face and keeping a light on. Their embalmer made my mum look like the mum I knew and at peace. They were able to help with finding a priest free to perform a Requiem mass and organised the crematorium. They guided me and facilitated  everything. We wanted it all done within the week and they made that happen. They made the whole experience from the moment I phoned them to the end, stress free. My brother and I are truly grateful for their kindness and human approach to a sad occasion. We couldn’t have asked for a better service and would highly recommend Mitchells. Thank you. . 

  • 5 Jacqui Carroll 12th Jun 2019

    Outstanding, caring and compassionate service received by Mitchells Funeral Directors.  I can honestly say after having arranging funerals in the past, Mitchells far surpassed the others.
    From my first initial call to Irene, her guidance and advice showed genuine caring and kindness. Liam was very thoughtful and nothing was too much trouble.  They made a very difficult time all the easier and I truly appreciated this.  I would have no hesitation in recommending them, simply the best.

  • 5 Sean Riddell 22nd May 2019

    Not having any experience in arranging a funeral I was worried about not knowing what was required of me, Mitchells Funeral Directors however were excellent in helping with advice on every stage. I highly recommend them for the amazing service they helped to create for my Dad.

  • 5 Suzanne Cullen 7th May 2019

    I would highly recommend Mitchell's funeral services          

    In particular, we would take the opportunity of thanking Donna Ball (celebrant) Liam Irene and all at Mitchell’s Funeral Services for the way in which they dealt with George and the family throughout the process and subsequent service.




    Together they turned a tragic and heartbreaking event into a bearable event, and a celebration of a  life characterised by love, wit, humour and a sense of devilment.




    They presented themselves throughout as the Consummate professionals, whilst providing emotional and practical support to anyone whom required it.  For this the family is,and shall remain, eternally grateful.  Rarely do you receive such a service where the providers present themselves in a non judgemental, compassionate and empathetic fashion. From the bottom of our hearts we thank you.
