The Ashoka
108 Elderslie Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7AR
At this independent restaurant (which, despite its name, is not part of the Harlequin chain), lively hen parties and office groups tend to head for the 'curry karaoke' below street level, while the main dining space, branded the Ashoka Flame, offers a…
Ashoka at the Quay
The Quay, Springfield Quay,
Glasgow,
G5 8NP
Formerly Masala Jak's, this restaurant has taken on the basic branding of the Harlequin Group in the past year or so. The venue has modern décor with an open kitchen and wooden tables, and the opportunity to dine overlooking the Clyde. The competitively…
Aziza Café Bazaar
407 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9JA
This exotic multicultural café and bazaar offers the warmest of welcomes. Billowing crimson drapes, bejewelled tiles and colourful glass lanterns create an atmosphere that's part Bedouin tent, part Moroccan tea-house, part souk (with most of the décor…
The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
The long-established Bay Tree likes to keep things fairly simple, with its unassuming layout and Middle Eastern knick-knacks around the walls. The same goes for its menu, which comprises a mixture of Arabian, Mediterranean and European dishes at…
Beanscene
16 Cresswell Lane, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8AA
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Beanscene
110 Battlefield Road, Battlefield, Southside,
Glasgow,
G42 9JT
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Beanscene
1365 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 8AF
Scotland
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Beanscene
19 Skirving Street Shawlands, Southside,
Glasgow,
G41 3AB
Scotland

Beanscene
40-42 Woodlands Road, West End,
Glasgow,

Beanscene
1-3 Helena Place, Busby Road, Clarkston, Southside,
Glasgow,
G76 7RB
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Bistro Saint Germain
71 Nithsdale Street,
Glasgow,
G41 2PY
This entirely French-run operation – featuring a deli packed with cheeses, pâtés and wines as well as a dinner menu of honest, home-made food – stakes a good claim to being the most Gallic few square metres of Glasgow. While some stereotypes are…
Café Cherubini
360 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HT
From the outside, Café Cherubini resembles a local café from a European indie film in which bookish characters sip coffee in the windows, framed by gold lettering and drawings of chubby angels. Inside, the couple in charge are wholly genuine with an air…
Café India
29 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1LH
Brightly lit, open and contemporary, Café India – something of a Glasgow institution – relocated to the Merchant City in April 2007 after many years near the Mitchell Library. A straightforward one-page menu offers a good choice of dishes, the usual…
Café La Padella
124 Woodlands Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6HB
A bright turquoise exterior is the first clue that Café La Padella is definitely not another corporate café. Idiosyncratic is the word that best describes this Mediterranean/Middle Eastern eatery, exemplifying, as it does, an 'original mix of…
Café Sejuiced
77 Hanson Street,
Glasgow,
G31 2HF
In a gloriously airy and open space on the ground floor of the WASPS studio building, in-house artists rub shoulders with workers from local businesses or Royal Infirmary employees over excellent breakfasts, lunches and snacks at this gem of a café. The…
Camerons
Glasgow Hilton, 1 William Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8HT
Recently refurbished and under the new management of the hyper-efficient William Leslie Birch, Camerons – situated in a ground-floor corner of Glasgow's high-rise Hilton – has ditched its fusty Scottish country house past for dark wood fittings and bold…
Canasta Bistro
1102 Cathcart Road, Mount Florida,
Glasgow,
G42 9EG
Those who don't live in Glasgow's Southside may not have heard of this cosy, husband and wife-run bistro opposite Hampden football ground. Yet arrive unannounced on a Saturday night and you will probably struggle to get a table. What is also striking is…
CCA Bar and Café
350 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3JD
The Centre for Contemporary Arts, a cultural oasis amid Sauchiehall Street's noisy parade of bars and clubs, is the place to come if you're after a coffee or a meal without selling out to The Man – the café uses fair trade and organic produce wherever…
Enjoy
393–395 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
The pavements of the Great Western Road see more striders than strollers. So competing cafés often need something extra to get bums on seats. For Enjoy, the selling point is the real food ethos of its Kosovan owners, Sebo and Manuella Brestovca. There…
Fanny Trollopes
1066 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8LY
The narrow dining room here has only a handful of tables, and the feeling is genuinely relaxed and warm. As you browse through the menu, staff may offer to tell you the story of Fanny – or perhaps discuss the eclectic range of art and ceramics that…
Gizzi's
87 Cambridge Street,
Glasgow,
G3 6RU
Previously known as Bistro du Sud but renovated and renamed Gizzi's in 2007, this bistro has a small, unassuming exterior and, inside, may be mistaken for a café with limited seating. There is more space upstairs, and the place would no doubt be full…
Go Slow Café
452 Victoria Road,
Glasgow,
G42 8YU
Tucked between an amusement arcade and an optician, the Go Slow Café provides a peaceful oasis among the hurly-burly of Victoria Road. Ochre walls, day-glo artwork and a bulletin board (which wouldn't look out of place in a backpackers' hostel) help to…
Grassroots Café
93–97 St Georges Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6JA
This café/restaurant is worth a small diversion off the well-beaten track of Woodlands Road; its creative menu (with blackboard specials, too) and relaxed atmosphere are of a higher calibre than the usual vegetarian operation. Purple curtains divide…
The Greek Golden Kebab
34 Sinclair Drive,
Glasgow,
G42 9QE
Those unfamiliar with this Southside favourite might think the Greek Golden Kebab is a loving pastiche of a bygone age. Trellises between the six compact booths display fake vines and souvenirs, while tourist board photos of the owners' Cypriot homeland…
Grianach
38 Nithsdale Road, Strathbungo,
Glasgow,
G41 2AN
Grianach means 'sunny' in Gaelic and the theme carries through this neighbourhood café, from the seasonal affective disorder light therapy boxes on each table to the summery pop on the stereo. The menu offers soups, sandwiches, baked potatoes, salads…
Jade Garden
303 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3HQ
Without being able to point it out on a map, many Glaswegians will be vaguely aware of Jade Garden, its bright pink sign having been part of the Sauchiehall Street fascia for what seems like forever. Those who haven't visited the restaurant behind could…
Killermont Polo Club
2022 Maryhill Road,
Glasgow,
G20 0AB
Located on an unremarkable section of Maryhill Road in a former polo clubhouse, this restaurant attracts most of its custom through glowing recommendations rather than luring the passing trade. The main dining room is decorated in the style of a hotel…
Kokuryo
1138 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TD
When faced with handfuls of fresh chillies alongside dried chilli peppers in what seems like a never-ending bowl of beef soup (a starter so intense, it might take until dessert time to finish), it's clear that the chef isn't holding anything back.
Louis' Bistro
18 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
Gibson Street is fast becoming the nucleus for West End dining, and Louis' Bistro has been growing in popularity since it opened in 2006. It's owned by the same team that runs the ever-wonderful No Sixteen [see Scottish], but the dishes here are more…
Mother India
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7RU
Style and elegance radiate throughout this justifiably renowned restaurant, from the small bistro-style area on the ground floor to the more formal room upstairs, with its comfortably used wooden tables, subdued lighting and wood panelling. It is a…
Mother India's Cellar
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7RU
Tucked below street level down a spiral staircase from the main Mother India foyer is Mother India's Cellar. It's decorated in the style of a hip and trendy wine bar with clean white walls, semi-open kitchen and exposed masonry, and the atmosphere still…
Neelim
1590 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G14 9DB
Most of the visitors to this well established Scotstoun restaurant live nearby. The venue has a no-frills approach to décor, but it is comfortable and welcoming, with subdued lighting. The modest interior belies an extensive menu, offering well-executed…
North Star
108 Queen Margaret Drive,
Glasgow,
G20 8NZ
North Star has a decidedly open-door policy, sometimes more literally so than you might like. But this small café/shop is a beacon in the hinterland between Byres Road and Maryhill, welcoming those who need sustenance from early morning until late…
Panjea
15–17 Kent Road,
Glasgow,
G3 7EH
This restaurant is named after Earth's Paleozoic supercontinent, a fitting title given its capacity to cater for 350 diners over two floors, with the top one reserved for groups and the infamous curry karaoke. The ground level has a modern ambience…
Remedy Delicatessen & Café
729–731 Pollokshaws Road,
Glasgow,
G41 2AA
Since it opened in 2005, Remedy has gained a loyal following among Southsiders. Wooden floors and tables, pale green walls and handsome cornicing make for simple but pleasant décor, while exceptionally friendly staff and light jazz help create a relaxed…
Roastit Bubbly Jocks
450 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6SE
Amidst the charity shops at the long end of Dumbarton Road, Roastit Bubbly Jocks might seem out of the way. For many, however, it's a well-loved dining institution. The emphasis is on the food and atmosphere: it's bustling, loud and warm – the way any…
78 St Vincent
78 St Vincent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 5UB
A celebration of the Auld Alliance, 78 St Vincent brings France to Scotland with both its décor and menu. Acknowledging more than a slight influence from the famous Restaurant Chartier in Paris, the dark wood and brass railings together with tinkling…
Shish Mahal
66–68 Park Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9JF
This bastion of British-Indian dining is nearly 50 years old and is run by the same family that opened it in 1964. The Shish, as it's known to regulars, remains an atmospheric place in which to spend an evening. The smart, well-designed interiors – and…
Sibbo's Delhi Dhabba
914 Sauchiehall Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7TF
This family-owned restaurant, which opened in 2004, is run by four brothers under the watchful eye of their mother Sibbo. There's much that's charming about the place, from the living room-sized dining area to the homely atmosphere. But Sibbo's Delhi…
The Sisters
1a Ashwood Gardens, 512 Crow Road,
Glasgow,
G13 1NU
Since moving from Ashton Lane to Jordanhill a few years back, the Sisters restaurant has become regarded as one of the better options in Glasgow. But its location off the beaten track made it one of the trickiest to find (though once you've been, it is…
Spice Garden
11–17 Clyde Place,
Glasgow,
G5 8AA
The night-owl's choice for a curry in the small hours of the morning, this restaurant is built into the railway arches on the south bank of the Clyde, beneath the lines to and from Glasgow's Central Station. In addition to taking advantage of late late…
Spice of Life
1293 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 8TL
There's no shortage of Indian eateries around the west end of Argyle Street, but Spice of Life certainly means to stand out from the crowd - its shiny white frontage and bright red neon sign make it hard to miss. Inside, too, there's an emphasis on…
Tapa Coffee & Bakehouse
21 Whitehill Street, Dennistoun,
Glasgow,
G31 2LH
Named after the South Pacific tapa cloth, which is 'hand-made using traditional methods', this artisanal bakery, café and coffee roasterie just off Duke Street in Dennistoun applies the same principles to its food. The ethos is clearly appreciated by a…
La Tasca
39–43 Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1JS
La Tasca is a chain covering the whole of the UK (including five Scottish locations) and Glasgow's branch conforms to a corporate model that dictates menu, drinks and décor. But don't let that put you off. It may function with the ruthless efficiency of…
Tawa & Grill
146–148 Nelson Street,
Glasgow,
G5 8EJ
The smart and contemporary Tawa & Grill provides proof – if you needed reminding – that a trip to Nelson Street in Tradeston possesses nearly all the virtues of a journey halfway across Asia. That this dilapidated zone south of the Clyde has become one…
Thai Lemongrass
24 Renfrew Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3BW
Thai Lemongrass exudes an almost spa-like calm. Ceiling fans rotate hypnotically, ushering a cool breeze along cushioned booths; meditative lights shine through intricate wood carvings. Staff are genteel, making you feel pampered as they explain the…
Thai Siam
1191 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8TQ
Banquette seating, carefully folded napkins and elevator music suggest that this neighbourhood restaurant is not about to give in to pressures to follow the latest fashions. Instead, there is a quiet confidence derived from the proficiency of its…
Torna Sorrento
148 Woodlands Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 6LF
Following a change of ownership in summer 2006, the homely, family-run style of Torna Sorrento has been dropped in favour of a more contemporary, straightforward approach, with a pared-down menu of Italian classics. Descriptions of dishes are similarly…
University Café
87 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G11 5HN
Visiting the University Café is like free-falling back to childhood seaside holidays, where the whole experience is simultaneously comforting and exotic. Dark wooden panelling and flock wallpaper surround the pink formica tables and red vinyl seats. A…
Vienna Café
59 Hyndland Street,
Glasgow,
G11 5PS
Hyndland Street is an up-and-coming area for fresh and interesting flavours, with a cluster of delicatessens and cafés anchored around a bi-monthly farmers' market. Vienna, from the team behind the neighbouring Polish Taste deli, provided further…
The Wee Curry Shop
7 Buccleuch Street,
Glasgow,
G3 6SJ
The sentiments of the 'small is beautiful' saying are certainly supported by Glasgow's various Wee Curry Shops. The newest one, opened towards the end of 2007 in Byres Road, is the latest tiny jewel in the crown of the empire of its parent group, Mother…
The Wee Curry Shop
23 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ

Where the Monkey Sleeps
182 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4RU
At WTMS, street-smart staff behind the counter cheerfully take orders from office-workers, students and the assorted hipsters who descend the steps to this basement café with comfy mismatched sofas. Inked on a giant whiteboard, the epic menu offers a…
Yo!Sushi
Silverburn Shopping Centre, Barrhead Road,
Glasgow,
G53 6QR
Stroll through the huge new Silverburn shopping centre and you're likely to stumble across a gaggle of gawping bystanders. The doorless and roofless Yo!Sushi is plonked in the middle of the mall's walkway, and many shoppers find its dinky conveyor belt…
