Entering the stately Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art Two by its Georgian façade ensures a real sense of occasion. In contrast to its fellow venue across the way, Café Modern Two provides friendly, unruffled table service for its varied…

King Tut's Wah Wah Hut

272a St Vincent Street, Glasgow, G2 5RL

Everyone in Glasgow and beyond knows the live venue regularly voted one the of the UK’s best. Less well known is that Tut’s goes beyond simply having a bar for the nightly gigs. Food is surprisingly good and makes it a good option for a bar meal in…

Tron Theatre

63 Trongate, Glasgow, G1 5HB

Glasgow’s uncanny ability to re-invent itself is perfectly illustrated in the Tron building and its 500 years of history. It is now a modern and vibrant cultural space but signs of its past are much in evidence, from the original steeple itself to the…

Zucca

15–17 Grindlay Street, Edinburgh, EH3 9AX

As veterans of the Edinburgh restaurant scene, Zucca’s owners know the importance of playing to their strengths. That means keeping theatre goers happy with snacks from a restricted menu in the downstairs bar while the restaurant upstairs focuses on…

Henderson's Vegetarian Restaurant

The Grosvenor Café

The Grosvenor Theatre, Ashton Lane, Glasgow, G12 8SJ

The Arches Café Bar & Restaurant

253 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G2 8DL

The question that springs to mind on entering the Arches underneath the Heilanman’s Umbrella does not concern its myriad of titles – bar, nightclub, theatre, live music venue, restaurant – but why one of the most relaxing spaces to drink and eat in…

Filmhouse Café Bar

88 Lothian Road, Edinburgh, EH3 9BZ

An Edinburgh cultural institution, this independent cinema gem incorporates a popular cafe-bar, which enjoys the pleasant ebb and flow of cineastes, or those just out for a quick bite with friends or colleagues. Fast-moving and often busy, this is…

Café Cossachok

Trongate 103, 10 King Street, Glasgow, G1 5QP

What does one expect from a Russian restaurant? Stroganoff? Blinis? Vodka? Perhaps that’s unreasonably stereotypical, but in Glasgow – where Café Cossachok is the one and only Russian eatery – such staples are greatly received and done properly. Instead…

The Pipers' Tryst

The National Piping Centre, 30–34 McPhater Street, Glasgow, G4 0HW

It's next-door to the home of Scotland's national instrument and they serve traditional food in a – let's say typically Scottish – warm and cosy atmosphere ideal for quiet conviviality and romantic rendezvous. It's even handily located at the top of…
