The Admiral
72a Waterloo Street,
Glasgow,
G2 7DA
The Admiral has long been an unsung vehicle for the local music scene. Sitting just deep enough within Glasgow's side streets to offer some kind of momentary escape from the city's immediate hustle and bustle, the basement venue area regularly plays…
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…
The Arches Café Bar & Restaurant
253 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
This venue seems to offer something for everyone – renowned clubbing for late-night revellers, theatre productions for the culture vultures and a small accomplished restaurant for the foodies. Located downstairs from the main entrance, a funky bar with…
Arta
The Old Cheesemarket, 62 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1PA
Arta does well to bracket itself as the ultimate leisure suite for an aspirational generation weaned on Ready Steady Cook and Grand Designs. A cavernous, opulent venue for eating, drinking, disco dancing and live music, its menu accordingly hedges its…
Babbity Bowster
16–18 Blackfriars Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1PE
This Merchant City institution wears its historical robes lightly. Babbity Bowster, named after a Scottish country dance, is sited in a late 18th-century tobacco merchant’s townhouse – all that remains of an entire street built by renowned architect…
Baby Grand
3–7 Elmbank Gardens,
Glasgow,
G2 4NQ
Just a few short steps from Charing Cross station, the Baby Grand is by day mainly filled with office workers and commuters who do lunch and coffee in the long thin room, but by night the mood changes to a more leisurely vibe as the pianist takes over.
Bacchus
80 Glassford Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1UR
Weekends are busy at this Merchant City bar, catering for the post-work and pre-club crowd. The interior is stylish, with comfy low cushioned benches, bar stools and standard tables offering seating options to suit your night. Be careful to arrive…
The Bank Café Bar
443 Clarkston Road,
Glasgow,
G44 3LL
Part of the Maclay Inn’s chain, this former bank has been nicely refurbished with solid wood and leather furnishings and a chrome-topped bar. Crane your neck to see the detailed cornicing and dramatic domed rooflight. There’s a good selection of draft…
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…
372–374 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HT
It is worth taking the time to trawl through Bar Gambrino’s extensive drinks list. Although its sheer length may leave some drinkers flummoxed, there is truly something to suit every taste including rarities such as the Argentine brew Quilmes, or a…
Bar Gandolfi
64 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
This stylish little bar upstairs from Café Gandolfi is something of a hidden gem, and the management like to keep it that way by advertising mostly by word of mouth. There simply isn’t space for more than a handful of diners and drinkers, around the…
Bar MC and Grill
129 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2SZ
Entering the basement grill of the ABode hotel for the first time you might imagine that you’ve stumbled accidentally into the nightclub. The cocktail lounge is a glitzy mirrored affair and the club atmosphere is enhanced at weekends when DJs might be…
Bar 91
91 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1NP
From business suits to groups of students, Bar 91 is as non-pretentious a venue as you get in the Merchant City. Clearly a local for many, its red velvet curtains and dimly lit décor, as well as a smattering of disco balls and a TV fireplace, make it…
Bar Soba
11 Mitchell Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
Tucked next to the Lighthouse, the popular bar serves a wide range of South East Asian fusion food that’s proved a hit with the pre-clubbing crowd. The ground floor bar area and downstairs restaurant space share a cool functional design with booths…
Bar Ten
10 Mitchell Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
Bar Ten’s style is trendy but effortless. Fairy lights are dotted about the bar and a high ceiling makes it feel spacious. Metal benches and tiled walls give it an almost industrial feel too. Celebrating its 20th birthday in 2011, the bar remains a…
Barça Tapas and Cava Bar
Princes Square, 48 Buchanan Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3JN
Eating at Barca Tapas and Cava bar, situated in the upmarket Princes Square mall, is a classy experience. If you can, grab a table on the terrace which overlooks the light and bright shopping centre and browse the impressive menu. The calamari with…
The Bath Street Pony
207 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4HZ
Since its arrival in 2009 the Pony has built up its reputation as a worthy addition to the cool bars on the Bath Street strip. It does a roaring trade in pre-theatre meals in the 5–7pm timeslot – at other times you can order Scottish and Mediterranean…
The Belle
617 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HX
One of this cosy West End bar’s few weak spots since opening in 2007 has hitherto been its lack of food, but that’s gladly been corrected with the launch of daytime light bites which, all proving successful, will be extended to a fuller selection of…
Bier Halle
9 Gordon Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3PL
Sitting quietly off Buchanan Street, the Republic Bier Halle is easy enough to miss. Still, descend its dark stark stairwell and it soon reveals itself like some secret underground bunker, bustling with stylish professionals and students. As hinted at…
The Big Blue
445 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8HH
Once again part of the Paperinos group after a flirtation with other management, this West End favourite’s chief selling point is its riverside location, the bar section opening on to the Kelvin with outdoor tables that are always packed in summer…
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…
Black Sparrow
241 North Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7DL
Tucked in tight off Charing Cross, the Black Sparrow is somewhat of an antidote to your average cramped city bar. Decked out in tasteful art pieces and resplendent leather booths, it immediately reveals a considerably classy atmosphere at play. This is…
