Committee Room No.9
18 John Street, Glasgow, G1 1JQ

Waxy O'Connor's
44 West George Street, Glasgow, G2 1DH
The first thing you notice on entering Waxy O’Connor's is the sheer size of it. The different rooms and levels make it possible to find a cosy nook even when the pub is busy. Added to this, the wood interior gives a reassuringly traditional feel for an…
Rab Ha's
83 Hutcheson Street, Glasgow, G1 1SH
Rab Ha’s is a well-loved and fairly busy Merchant City pub (and small hotel), and over the past 20 years or so its basement restaurant has meandered up and down market, with varying critical and commercial success. Currently it feels like an…
Bar 91
91 Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1NP
Regularly filled with an eclectic mix of professionals, students and families, Bar 91’s welcoming vibe and contemporary interior see it busy all day. In addition to the usual array of mainstream lagers, there are beers from the nearby West Brewery…
Metropolitan
Merchant Square, Candleriggs, Glasgow, G1 1LE
Given the weather, Metropolitan’s indoor terrace overlooking Merchant Square is the safest way to dine al fresco in Glasgow. It’s a very pleasant place to be, with the sandstone walls, linen napkins and twinkling fairy lights adding atmosphere to the…
Citation
40 Wilson Street, Glasgow, G1 1HD
Once the home of the Sheriff Court, this imposing structure is now in session as a lively multi-levelled bar/restaurant complex. The Taverne's right up at the top, with traditional styling and dark décor complemented by a large outdoor seating area. But…
Home
80 Albion Street, Glasgow, G1 1NY
The decoration at this city centre hang-out is indeed a bit like home – if you happen to live somewhere that’s the ‘before’ part of a makeover. The furniture is a random mixture of leather booths (some with ripped seats), squashy sofas and gaudy chairs…
Brutti Ma Buoni
Brunswick Hotel, 106 Brunswick Street, Glasgow, G1 1TF
The Brunswick Hotel's café-bar has long been a popular spot for Merchant City hipsters, with its stylish Italian design and cool, pre-club vibe. The menu is large and snacky and takes a while to read, with various tapas plates, bruschetta, burgers and…
Urban Bar & Brasserie
23–25 St Vincent Place, Glasgow, G1 2DT
Positioned to receive tourists spilling out from George Square is this, the flagship in Alan Tomkins’ collection of Glasgow bars and restaurants. With its muted tones, champagne bar and live piano playing it seems halfway between a relaxed, cosmopolitan…
Babbity Bowster
16–18 Blackfriars Street, Glasgow, G1 1PE
Located in an old tobacco merchant’s house on the periphery of the Merchant City, Babbity Bowster is a pleasantly secluded place for a drink and some good food, particularly in the beer garden if the sun is shining on this evocative street. Babbity…
The Libertine
45–47 Bell Street, Glasgow, G1 1NX
A competition saw this bar named after the decadent 17th-century poet, the 2nd Earl of Rochester, but here’s nothing debauched about this Libertine, which neatly balances daytime bistro and night-time bar. Tall windows line both aspects, allowing diners…
Red Lizard
51 Bell Street, Glasgow, G1 1NX
On a corner site in the heart of the Merchant City, Red Lizard aims to combine different bar styles. From the drawing room-style drapes at the large windows and chunky leather chesterfields clustered in corners, to the tiger skin above the red-flock…
SoHo
84 Miller Street, Glasgow, G1 1DT
SoHo is a low-ceiling lively place that specialises in bar meals and pizzas and seems one of the few places in town to be regularly busy even midweek. Service is sharp and generally smiley and the menu is Mediterranean-influenced, with a Scots slant…
All Bar One
62–72 St Vincent Street, Glasgow, G2 5TS
With floor-to-ceiling windows on the corner of St Vincent and West Nile streets, All Bar One is well placed to watch the world go by over a drink or a bite. Such is its bustling nature, however, it seems as if few people have time to linger at its…
TGI Friday's
113 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 3HF
Now in its 15th year of serving up hearty American favourites to families, office parties and numerous other punters, TGI Friday's is as busy as ever (and by some accounts it's the most popular restaurant in the city). The chain operation's formula of…
Vroni's Wine & Champagne Bar
47 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2PT
An institution for 30 to 40-somethings since 1995, dark wood and deep green leather seating dominate the bar’s interior, making for a warming setting in which to explore an excellent wine range. With 40 to choose from, including nine champagnes, Vroni’s…
Maggie May's
60 Trongate, Glasgow, G1 5EP
If you believe the deep-fried Mars bar is an urban myth, proof of its existence can be found at Maggie May’s, an indie/folky music venue and pub with a surprisingly civilised restaurant tucked away at the back of the bar. The crisply battered…
Bier Halle
9 Gordon Street, Glasgow, G1 3PL
When the Bier Halle opened 13 years ago, lager enthusiasts embraced its ‘authentic German beer hall’ layout and menu of over 60 beers. Who would have anticipated that it would have pioneered a two-for-one pizza revolution that has now reached seemingly…
Filling Station
46 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HG
With its diner-style booths, a bottle of ketchup on every table and retro road signs for decoration, the Filling Station is aiming for a classic US roadhouse feel. The long menu concentrates on burgers, hot sandwiches, steaks and salads, together with a…
The Social
27 Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow, G1 3AJ
Location is key for this trendy city centre bar/brasserie in the G1 Group's stable of stylish ventures. A huge square bar dominates the interior space, surrounded by dark wooden tables and leather pouffes. A mixture of suits and pre-clubbers rub…
Boteco do Brasil
62 Trongate, Glasgow, G1 5EP
Inside this lively bohemian hangout the carnival atmosphere hits you. Brazilian flags and bold cultural murals set the scene while large screens ensure you don’t miss any footie action while supping a Brahma beer or caipirinha – Brazil’s national…
Tron Theatre
63 Trongate, Glasgow, G1 5HB
Long respected for its theatrical offerings, the Tron’s also built a reputation for reliably good food. The menu features well-executed gastropub favourites such as ham and eggs, risotto and braised lamb shank. A starter of button mushrooms in garlic…
Darcy's
The Courtyard, Princes Square, Glasgow, G1 3JN
After a refit last winter, Darcy’s has a modern French bistro feel, black and white pictures of Parisian street life on the walls, with brushed-steel detailing evoking a bit of New York too. Wine glasses hang above the bar, twinkling under the…
November
Princes Square, 48 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 3JX
Situated right at the top of Princes Square, November is a light, airy cocktail bar and café which offers seating 'outside' on the balcony, looking down to the shops below, or under the interior's cupola. It offers a variety of dishes to tempt wearied…
Barça Tapas and Cava Bar
Princes Square, 48 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 3JN
Situated in upmarket Princes Square, Barça’s top floor terrace is a prime spot overlooking the courtyard and soak up the buzz. Inside this spacious urban style brasserie is a lively cava bar at one end with regular cocktail masterclasses and salsa…
Walkabout
128 Renfield Street, Glasgow, G2 3AL
Part of a chain, Australian-themed sports bar Walkabout offers a budget-friendly dining experience for a young, noisy, studenty crowd. The Boomerang card entitles patrons to 25% off all food and drink once purchased for just a few quid. A jumble of…
Sloans
62 Argyll Arcade, City Centre, Glasgow, G2 8BG
Sloan’s is enjoying something of a renaissance at the moment, cleverly positioning itself between homely traditional pub and something a wee bit funkier for when the shoppers go home and the evening arrives. They do cracking pints of Heineken and…
Bar Soba
11 Mitchell Lane, Glasgow, G1 3NU
One of the first restaurants in Glasgow to serve fashionable ‘fusion’ food, Bar Soba serves up a mix of Thai, Japanese, Vietnamese and Chinese influenced dishes including the soba noodles that the restaurant’s name suggests. Bar Soba claims that its…
Cathedral House Hotel
28–32 Cathedral Square, Glasgow, G4 0XA
Taking up the ground floor of an ancient-looking building across from the Necropolis and Cathedral, and close to Strathclyde University, it's no surprise that this bright and spacious bar is popular with tourists and students. A mezzanine provides a…
Mono
12 Kings Court, King Street, Glasgow, G1 5RB
Mono has been serving Glasgow’s veggie and vegan clientele for ten years now and it’s easy to see the attraction. The room has an indie vibe with a raised platform for the eating area, a good-sized stage for visiting musicians and a long colourful bar…
The Living Room
150 St Vincent Street, Glasgow, G2 5NE
Weekends at this popular bar and diner feature live music and even a regular magician – helping to create a lively infectious buzz that is easy to get caught up in. Couples and groups are seated in leather booths, helping to break up the restaurant…
Bar Bloc+
117 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 2SZ
From the mural of Brezhnev and Honecker kissing that greets you upon entrance to the imposing wooden benches one must then clamber into, Bloc is anything but subtle. And nor should it be, with live entertainment and a late licence all week. Its…
MacSorley's Music Bar MacSorley's
42 Jamaica Street, Glasgow, G1 4QG
At this time last year the upstairs eating section of MacSorley’s was going for a full-blown, fine-dining approach. The food was great, but the juxtaposition of such cuisine in an old-school pub, albeit a music-focused one with a young clientele, was…
Pivo Pivo
15 Waterloo Street, Glasgow, G2 6AY
Pivo Pivo was one of Glasgow's first pubs to serve an extensive range of world beers - from Argentinian Quilmes to Kirin from Japan - and still largely trades on punters' tourism. Located right beside Central Station, its small bar area lies at the foot…
Kudos Bar Restaurant
29 Waterloo Street, Glasgow, G2 6BZ
Situated in a prime spot close to Central Station and the financial district, Kudos is the ideal venue for office staff looking for a quick pit-stop at lunchtime. The bar’s express lunch menu, containing favourites such as battered haddock and macaroni…
Hummingbird
186 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HG
Saint Judes
190 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HG
This ivy-clad basement townhouse on the Bath St social hub is an interesting and attractive mix of bar/bistro and hotel with a dark and dangerous (especially when you trip on the way to the toliet) interior and a public yet surprisingly intimate…
Bunker
193–199 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HU
For such grand subterranean dimensions, Bunker does an impressive job of always feeling busy. Even during quiet afternoons a healthy young crowd fills the bright, airy space. When lights go down and the indie/chart music gets louder, it’s busier still…
Moskito
200 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HG
The ambient beats and distinctive green-turquoise hue of Moskito have been with us for more than a decade now, making it the elder statesman of Bath Street. Like its neighbouring bars, the location’s great for workers from the nearby offices, as well as…
The Tiki Bar
214 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HW
Polynesian stylings (straw basket chairs, palm trees, ‘Easter Island’ heads) alongside 1950s Americana (MAD comics and a popcorn machine) – to the unordained, this place benefits from an explanation. The décor constitutes, you see, a ‘Tiki Bar’, the…
The Bath Street Pony
207 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 4HZ
After a few name changes over the last decade, this venue seems to have finally found its feet as the Bath Street Pony, now enjoying its third year in the guide. Ironically, the décor hasn’t changed since previous incarnations – the contrast of open…
King Tut's Wah Wah Hut
272a St Vincent Street, Glasgow, G2 5RL
There was a time when every young buck in town knew Tut’s as the venue where Oasis famously got signed. It’s still going strong in the music stakes, with an impressive list of of artists that have graced the stage listed on the staircase leading up to…
Saramago Café Bar
CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3JD
Occupying a light, airy atrium in the heart of the CCA, Saramago draws a bohemian crowd – you’re more likely to find an up-and-coming conceptual artist or filmmaker at the next table than a weary Sauchiehall Street shopper. The menu is a tour of mostly…
The Art School
The Beresford Building, 468 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3LW
While The Glasgow School of Art is renovated, the union has made its home here in the Beresford building. It’s suitably scruffed up –- creative doodles on the wall, candle-lit tables, and lots of students (though all are welcome). There’s a friendly…
WEST Brewery
Building 4 Templeton Building, Glasgow Green, Glasgow, G40 1AW
With many bars in Glasgow and beyond stocking their excellent beers – brewed in accordance with German Purity Laws (meaning they include water, malt, hops and yeast, and nothing else touches them other than a skilled brewer's hand) – WEST's impact on…
Baby Grand
3–7 Elmbank Gardens, Glasgow, G2 4NQ
With its proximity to Charing Cross Station, the Premier Inn and the motorway, the long-established Baby Grand is handily placed to cater for commuters, visitors and business folk, particularly during the day. At night the area is quieter but a…
The Local
427 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3LG
The quirky mix of ceiling lamps and a spherical white TV add a bit of character to the otherwise rectilinear furnishings of The Local: tables, chesterfields, empty picture frames and a free-standing bar on which the youthful clientele can rest their…
Driftwood
2–4 St Georges Road, Glasgow, G3 6UJ
Driftwood has been a fixture of Charing Cross for a few years now, offering cheap and cheerful food to hungry students and weary shoppers. The dining area is decked out in the 'traditional' Mexican terracotta and yellow, though it's actually barely…
Black Sparrow
241 North Street, Glasgow, G3 7DL
The Black Sparrow is certainly an attractive room, packed with original details, with a huge ornate bar that runs the length of the space and lots of rather cute booths perfectly made for two. There’s a mezzanine level for larger groups and a much…
Chinaski's
239 North Street, Glasgow, G3 7DL
Named after a Charles Bukowski alter ego, Chinaski’s maintains its underground roots by eschewing any signage on the exterior in an effort to deter large groups of rowdy drinkers from nearby Sauchiehall Street. During daylight hours the bar is bright…
