13th Note Café
50-60 King Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5QT
Scotland
Set on arty King Street, this laid-back hang-out has long provided wholesome vegetarian food to hungry indie rock fans - as live sets are played in the basement seven nights a week while hip music is a permanent backdrop in the bar/café. Diners…
Ad Lib
111 Hope Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 6LL
A handsome old fire station on Ingram Street houses the second branch of Ad Lib, which hopes to extend its deluxe-diner appeal to the Merchant City. The original might still be slightly funkier, with its long bar and American-style booths, but the newer…
The Arches Café Bar
253 Argyle Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
Being underground isn't just about subterranean existence - being underground is, of course, the supreme height of cool. The Arches Café Bar transcends semantics by being both down in the basement and undeniably hip. Designed by Glasgow design stars…
Arta
The Old Cheesemarket, 62 Albion Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1PA
A club, bar, restaurant and VIP lounge in one, Arta is a jewel in the crown of Stefan King's G1 empire. The vast, remodelled interior of the Merchant City's old cheesemarket recalls the set of some particularly lush Fellini epic - a phantasmagoria of…
Babbity Bowster
16-18 Blackfriars Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1PE
See also Schottische restaurant above Babbity Bowster.
Baby Grand
3-7 Elmbank Gardens, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4NQ
The original Baby Grand, in contrast to its West End and Merchant City outlets [see below], offers a Manhattan-style bar and diner. The venture mixes glass-topped tables and softly-glowing tapered candles with an open galley kitchen at one end of the…
The Bank
443 Clarkston Road, Southside,
Glasgow,
G44 3LL
The ageing architecture of this former bank building has been given a bright and modern lift by this busy, yet chilled-out, local bar and bistro, with its squishy brown leather sofas, huge red lampshades, bold black and white curtains and chunky wooden…
Bar Bola
144 Park Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G4 9HB
Once upon a time, Bar Bola's curvaceous shapes and wiggly cast-iron fittings might have placed it in 'style bar' territory. But, over the years, it has managed to age rather gracefully as an unassuming, chilled-out bar/bistro that welcomes lots of…
Bar Soba
11 Mitchell Lane, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
Bar Soba pulls off the feat of being a stylish city centre bar with the warmth and easy-going attitude of a local. The downstairs restaurant operates during the busier nights of the week and food is served upstairs in the bar at other times. Although…
The Big Blue
445 Great Western Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8HH
The window for open air dining in Glasgow may be brief, but when it's ajar, the Big Blue cashes in on its sun-trap location just above the banks of the River Kelvin. Even when the weather isn't conducive to eating outdoors, the brightly coloured mosaics…
Big Slope
36a Kelvingrove Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7SA
One of Glasgow's original style bars, Air Organic's space-age interior lost its lunar lustre long before its 2006 closure. In its place, Big Slope has offered a breath of fresh mountain air, taking its name and inspiration from hunting lodges in the…
Brutti Ma Buoni
Brunswick Hotel, 106 Brunswick Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1TF
As the in-house café/bar of the funky Brunswick boutique hotel, this narrow black and grey number fits well by offering a similarly hip aesthetic. A bull's head made from cava corks sits on the bar, tomatoes and garlic hang from the front of the…
Budda
8 Cresswell Lane, West End,
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 Bunker Bar
193-199 Bath Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4HU
One of Bath Street's busier style bars, Bunker thrives on consumer desire for a bargain. The pre-theatre menu has two courses for £10 from 5-7pm and all drinks are £1.20 all day Tuesday and Thursday. These promotions, the disappearance of the live stage…
The Butterfly & the Pig
153 Bath Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4SQ
Scotland
Unique, and maybe just a little zany, this flighty butterfly and dashing pig have made a rather refreshing splash across the Glasgow pub food scene. Eclectic retro décor typified by wingback chairs, velvet poufs, art deco crockery and odd, narrative…
The Catwalk Rock Lounge
95 Union Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G1 3TA
Formerly known as Underworld, with its Mexican theme, this subterranean bar below Central Station is undergoing a transition as the guide goes to press. The Catwalk Rock Lounge seems set to ditch its taquitos in favour of old-fashioned British food such…
Chinaski's
239 North Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7DL
An unassuming exterior lacking apparent signage lends Chinaski's a certain immediate hipness. It is inspired in name by barfly/writer Charles Bukowki's alter ego, and there are subtle references to the beat writer, though with no theme-bar triteness…
Corinthian
191 Ingram Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1DA
Glasgow's former union banking hall dating from the 19th century provides an impressive grade A listed backdrop to this multi-spaced emporium of eating and drinking. Neon lights under the spectacular glass dome of the Lite bar, and staff in stylish…
Driftwood
2-4 St Georges Road, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G3 6UJ
Driftwood knows how to pull in the bargain-hunters: signs outside advertise exceptionally inexpensive drink and meal deals that are too enticing to ignore. Located at the studenty end of Sauchiehall Street, but close enough to offices at Charing Cross…
Europa
8-10 West George Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 1DR
Football looms large in this busy city centre café-bar by Queen Street station, from the giant screen in the pub to numerous smaller versions above the comfortable dining booths in the adjoining restaurant wing. There's even another (rain-proof) model…
Firebird
1321 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 8TL
Part of a cluster of eateries filling the gap between Byres Road and Argyle Street's western end, Firebird is a vibrant bar and bistro with an upbeat atmosphere. The blue and yellow walls are adorned with quirky art work, such as a magnificent big white…
The Gate
62 Trongate, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
This is something different from the team behind both the Dhabba and Dakhin Indian restaurants - a bar with a small dining room to the rear that features Asia Pacific cuisine of an Indo-Chinese inclination. As we go to press, however, keys had just been…
Ivory Bar & Restaurant
2-4 Camphill Avenue, Southside,
Glasgow,
G41 3AY
This Southside restaurant (with hotel) is just up and over the hill from Battlefield Road, looking out onto Queen's Park. Understandably, tables in the conservatory with a view are most in demand, though sitting through the back is just as pleasant and…
Ivy
157-159 North Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7DA
With a number of stylish eating and drinking establishments opening on this stretch of North Street, the aspect of the neighbourhood is slowly changing. Ivy, opened in the old Repertoire space in December 2006, surprises with a dark, highly polished…
The Lansdowne Bar & Kitchen
7a Lansdowne Crescent, West End,
Glasgow,
G20 6NQ
Tucked away on a quiet crescent of private residences just off Great Western Road, the Lansdowne is prospering, thanks principally to word of mouth recommendation. After successive management changes in recent years and an extensive 2005 refurbishment…
