Browns Bar & Brasserie
1 George Square,
Glasgow,
G2 1DY
Browns is a safe pair of hands in George Square, a busy part of town where food choices can seem overwhelming. It has a French influence in its styling and décor but a very British feel in the food – with a name like Browns it could hardly have anything…
The Brasserie on George Square
Millennium Hotel, 40 George Square,
Glasgow,
G2 1DS
Located inside the Millennium Hotel, the Brasserie on George Square offers an elegant dining space: warm earth tones and muted lighting dominate the main area, while the some fine views of the Square are available from the street-side conservatory. The…
The Italian Kitchen
64 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1EX
It could be argued the Italian Kitchen is a victim of its own success – it is almost always busy so service can occasionally stretch, and booking ahead is pretty much a must. Put that aside and what you get is a restaurant with a lovely atmosphere, a…
The Corinthian Club
191 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DA
The brasserie and bar area in the Corinthian must be one of the most beautiful rooms in Scotland. If you want to impress then this dramatic central hall of the former High Court is certainly the place to come. The food can’t really compete with such…
Dakhin
89 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1NP
The Dakhin offers something different from the array of Indians in and around Merchant City. It’s a Southern Indian speciality restaurant – not a pakora, korma or rogan josh in sight. The fragrant, aromatic scents of coconut and curry leaves waft…
Peckham's
61–65 Glassford Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1UB
Peckham’s was once the go-to Merchant City deli, packed with pâtés, Scottish fruit cordials, olive oils and as fine a selection of wines as you could find in Glasgow. But it has suffered in recent years – and many competitors have stepped into the…
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…
OKO Express
78 Queen Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3DN
Now under new ownership OKO has raised its game, with all dishes being fresher and better presented than ever, and when it comes to Japanese food that is imperative. The setting is typical for a sushi bar with cafeteria style bench seating that is good…
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…
The Italian Caffè
92 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
The food here more than matches the elegant surroundings dispelling any initial fears over Merchant City style over substance. Serving a tapas-style menu invigorates a scene overladen with the usual pizza and pasta suspects, and the ability to sample a…
Gandolfi Fish
84 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
Sister to the famed cafe just down the street, this fish-focussed member of the Gandolfi family is already renowned for clever cooking and solid sourcing. A recent refit (to make way for ‘Fish -To- Go’ take away next door) sees the re-siting of the…
Café Gandolfi
64 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
If one restaurant can take credit for Stornoway black pudding becoming ubiquitous on the menus of contemporary Scotland this is the one. Back when the dish was deemed little more than offal Gandolfi was serving it on drop scones with mushrooms, inspired…
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…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place,
Glasgow,
G2 1BT
Enter the plate-glass doors and down the elegant stairway into this basement venue, and it is clear that Amarone is at the classier end of the Di Maggio's chain. There's the slick modern décor, warm chocolate and neutral colours, and mix of open tables…
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 Dhabba
44 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1LE
From huge prints illustrating Indian life, to the scents drifting from the kitchen, the Dhabba experience begins the moment you walk into the spacious, relaxed setting. The modern North Indian specialist has enjoyed a decade of success in the heart of…
Guy's Restaurant & Bar
24 Candleriggs, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
It's almost certainly worth booking at this well-established Merchant City favourite. At the end of the bar, the dining area is bright and buzzy, with some of the tables quite close together – more suited to social rather than intimate dining. Service…
Rogano
11 Exchange Place,
Glasgow,
G1 3AN
For many years the go-to-place for fine dining in luxuriant surroundings, Rogano has been serving high flyers, celebs, and expense account businesspeople for nigh on seven decades. The plush interiors speak of old world wealth with bronze mirrors…
The Glasserie
Mansion House, The Glasshouse, 20 Glassford Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1UL
Mansion House is the latest superclub to be unveiled in the Merchant City. Previously Tiger Tiger, it is compartmentalised into various rooms and venues, all with a different vibe but squarely aimed at revellers having a fun-filled evening. Through…
The Merchant Grill
Gala Casino, 16–18 Glassford Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1UL
The Merchant Grill is a buzzy brasserie that is always filled with a fun crowd. Relaxed and contemporary in style, the dining room is the perfect place to celebrate your luck or enjoy a meal with a loved one, friends and family. The menu is an eclectic…
The Secret Garden at the Gate
62 Trongate, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5EP
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…
The Restaurant Bar & Grill
Princes Square, Buchanan Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3JX
It may not be the most distinctive, and it has a corporate whiff about it, but this restaurant blends wood, leather and glass to create a smart, contemporary yet comfortable diner – well suited to business lunches, shopping bites, office nights out or a…
