Church on the Hill
16 Algie Street, Glasgow, G41 3DJ
For someone who’s never seen it before, the Church on the Hill is pretty stunning – a refurbished church that looks like the Parthenon in Greece, facing on to Queen’s Park. It really is a lovely venue, and very popular with a cross-section of…
Big Slope
36a Kelvingrove Street, Glasgow, G3 7SA
It would be interesting to know how many folk come into Big Slope for a drink, but end up having something to eat. That's what makes a good bar food menu: perched on the table, teasing and appetising. Here we have pub favourites with lovely twists…
Ivy
1102–1106 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TD
From the street there’s little to see, but the heavy doors of the Ivy open into a small bar manned by some of the most enthusiastic staff you’ll meet in Glasgow. It plays host to six draft beers including the citrusy Joker IPA and more unusually 100…
The Ben Nevis
1147 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TB
The Ben Nevis is well worth a visit if you’re after whisky, contemporary Scottish folk or just a chance to hang out with some real Glaswegians in an agreeable environment. With slabs of slate, ropes and wood, the interior evokes a fantastical Highland…
Ivory Bar & Restaurant
2–4 Camphill Avenue, Glasgow, G41 3AY
Situated adjacent to the greenery of Queens Park on a relatively quiet residential street, The Ivory Hotel looks like it could almost be the eatery and watering hole in a rural town. It feels like it inside too, with an informal atmosphere generated by…
The 78
10–14 Kelvinhaugh Street, Glasgow, G3 8NU
This charming laid-back café/bar has the feel of a country house – set incongruously just off Argyle Street. A long bar dominates the rustically informal room with a line of aged wooden tables, an open fireplace and comfy armchairs hogging its large…
The Bank The Bank Café Bar
443 Clarkston Road, Glasgow, G44 3LL
The Maclay Inns group, five of whose premises are featured in this section, tend to choose interesting buildings for their ventures that add a nice bit of character. In the case of The Bank it is, indeed, a former bank, now popular residential café/bar…
The Goat & Grill
1287 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TL
When the weather’s right the Goat and Grill has one of the largest outdoor seating areas around, while indoors is a small bar with the centre of attention on the big screen showing sporting events. Upstairs the focus is on food but the bar atmosphere…
Booly Mardy's
28 Vinicombe Street, Glasgow, G12 8BE
Attracting the West End’s young professionals is a tough task thanks to the multitude of slick bars in the area, but Booly Mardys appears to have cracked the formula. Teeming with patrons at the weekends, the bar prides itself on the quality of its…
Hillhead Bookclub
17 Vinicombe Street, Glasgow, G12 8BE
There are not many places you can indulge in cocktail served in an old gramophone, but that is just one of the many quirky traits that ensures the Hillhead Bookclub is counted among the West End’s coolest hangouts. Food is of a very high standard, the…
Firebird
1321 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TL
A West End institution over the past decade or so, Firebird has always been known primarily for its pizzas (which can be bought to takeaway). Hand-made and cooked in a wood-fired oven, giving them a faint smokey flavour, they are thin and crispy with an…
Brel
39–43 Ashton Lane, Glasgow, G12 8SG
Brel's become a West End fixture not just for its European-influenced food and drink but for a certain relaxed continental vibe giving it a rare sophistication so close to the university. The back beer-garden fills up on sunny days and also offers a…
Bar Budda
8 Cresswell Lane, Glasgow, G12 8AA
Although Thai-influenced food has been a characteristic of this high-concept chain for several years, more recently the West End branch has also been focusing on Scottish ingredients while still retaining a flavour of the Far East. Embedded in Cresswell…
The Grosvenor Café
The Grosvenor Theatre, Ashton Lane, Glasgow, G12 8SJ
Located above the well-known Ashton Lane cinema, the Grosvenor is a bar which captures the atmosphere of the film experience. A large projector screen plays out silent pictures throughout the day, while the bar’s décor harks back to the cinematic…
Dukes Bar
41 Old Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G3 8RD
Newly opened in 2011, refurbished by the same crew that fitted Epicures and BrewDog, Dukes Bar could easily win awards on style alone. There’s a pleasing reclaimed chic with exposed brickwork and vintage tiling, the booths being particularly well…
The Waverley Tea Room
18 Moss Side Road, Glasgow, G41 3TN
This is perhaps the best of the G1 Group’s Southside outposts, as popular with early-rising families for its coffee and kids' play area as it is with evening revellers for its late licence, strong choice of beers and ten wines by the glass. It’s also…
The Granary
10–16 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3NH
The Granary has been bestriding the two main Shawlands arteries of Pollokshaws Road and Kilmarnock Road for 25 years. At lunchtime the main part of the pub is closed and you have to slip in via a side door. Failing to make a grand entrance, too, are the…
Bar Soba
116–122 Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8TB
The sister venue to the Mitchell Street venue of the same name, Soba opened on Byres Road in early 2012 and is described as a ‘Bar & Noodle Kitchen’. The bar aspect means that Soba offers a great selection of cocktails. They may not be cheap but…
Three Judges
141 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6PR
From the numerous certificates that decorate the walls of this traditional bar it’s clear that the Three Judges has the deepest respect for real ales. On the day of review they were also received their latest award from CAMRA, the 2012 Scottish cider…
Cottier's
93–95 Hyndland Street, Glasgow, G11 5PX
Stencils on the walls, fairy lights and candles add plenty of character and atmosphere to proceedings in this converted church. Service is genuinely warm and helpful while suitably informal given the relaxed surroundings. The carpaccio of Inverurie beef…
The Rio Café
27 Hyndland Street, Glasgow, G11 5QF
The Rio Café’s 1950s diner-style décor and vibe has made it something of an institution in Glasgow’s West End, and it’s menu offers up tempting options whether you’re in for breakfast, lunch, or just a snack. The burgers come large and tasty, and even a…
Lock 27
1100 Crow Road, Glasgow, G13 1JT
Lock 27's prime spot on the edge of the Forth and Clyde Canal has served it well for over two decades, especially as the canal has improved vastly in that time. It serves typical pub food and customary entertainment to a varied and genial mix of locals…
Criterion
568 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6RH
Half old traditional Partick café, half hipster hangout, The Criterion is slightly more bar-oriented than its next door neighbour and sister establishment Velvet Elvis. But it's just as eccentric in terms of fixtures and fittings, with its shelves…
St Louis Cafe Bar
734 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 7RD
This family-run café-bar originally opened as just a café, but as its evening popularity grew so did its modest menu. The venue is as welcoming as a good friend’s living room with Klimt prints, fairy lights wrapped around pillars and an aged wooden…
