Roastit Bubbly Jocks
450 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6SE
Amidst the charity shops at the long end of Dumbarton Road, Roastit Bubbly Jocks might seem out of the way. For many, however, it's a well-loved dining institution. The emphasis is on the food and atmosphere: it's bustling, loud and warm – the way any…
Chinaski's
239 North Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7DL
The almost anonymous exterior and dimly lit, stylish interior makes Chinaski's a secret and sophisticated haven from the city rush, epitomised by the sunken M8 across the road. Even if you have never heard of Henry Chinaski, the relaxed approach of bar…
Big Slope
36a Kelvingrove Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7SA
Occupying a basement near Kelvingrove Park, this Alpine-themed bar is the closest Glasgow gets to après-ski. Black leather booths nestle under wooden panels depicting snow scenes, while antlers decorate the walls. Students and office workers snap up…
Salsa
63 Carlton Place,
Glasgow,
G5 9TW
Technically on the Southside, Salsa is just a pleasant five-minute walk from the city centre via the Clyde's suspension pedestrian bridge. The discreet location suits the ambience of the restaurant, which is refreshingly unlike most Mexican-themed…
The Left Bank
33–35 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NU
Our 2007 Newcomer of the Year, the Left Bank is still managing to draw in the crowds – the popular bar/bistro has the holy trinity of dedicated service, competitive prices and honest, solid cooking to thank for its success. The stylish décor helps as…
Ad Lib
33 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HA
Glasgow's two Ad Libs have carved a niche as perhaps the more mature establishments that focus on US-style cuisine. The newer Merchant City outlet has a grander atmosphere, with marble walls and well-spaced booths that give it a chic, cosmopolitan…
Ad Lib
111 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6LL
Glasgow's two Ad Libs have carved a niche as perhaps the more mature establishments that focus on US-style cuisine. The newer Merchant City outlet has a grander atmosphere, with marble walls and well-spaced booths that give it a chic, cosmopolitan…
The Universal
57-59 Sauchiehall Lane, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4JD
Flashier town centre bars may struggle to fill their sofas on an early week evening, but this little bar is buzzing pretty much every night. Hidden away on a side street, it can't attract much walk-up, so what's its secret? On two floors, bare brick…
An Lochan
340 Crow Road,
Glasgow,
G11 7HT
To wander through Broomhill, at least up the Crow Road from Partick towards Anniesland, is to witness a dearth of dining out options. But amid the virtual desert this oasis emerges modestly amid of a row of shops. The former Café Royale, An Lochan is…
Blas
1397 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AN
With a name meaning 'taste' or 'relish' in Gaelic, Blas proudly offers tastes of the Highlands and Islands in produce such as Stornoway black pudding, Ullapool smoked salmon and Dingwall haggis. Fittingly, it's situated close to many of the city's…
Grassroots Café
93–97 St Georges Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6JA
This café/restaurant is worth a small diversion off the well-beaten track of Woodlands Road; its creative menu (with blackboard specials, too) and relaxed atmosphere are of a higher calibre than the usual vegetarian operation. Purple curtains divide…
Nanakusa
441 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3LG
Before Nanakusa opened in November 2007, manager David Wan flew to the Far East to see exactly what made an authentic Japanese restaurant. Wan adored the teppanyaki, tempura and yakitori joints he stumbled upon, although nowhere could he find all the…
The Wee Curry Shop
23 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
The sentiments of the 'small is beautiful' saying are certainly supported by Glasgow's various Wee Curry Shops. The newest one, opened towards the end of 2007 in Byres Road, is the latest tiny jewel in the crown of the empire of its parent group, Mother…
Brutti Ma Buoni
Brunswick Hotel, 106 Brunswick Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1TF
Brutti Ma Buoni (which means 'ugly but good' in Italian) is the stylish café/bar belonging to the Brunswick Hotel. Its deep, narrow space is basic, if modern in design, with small stainless steel tables as well as a queue of black leather stools that…
Mother India's Café
1355 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AD
Mother India's Café, part of the well-kent Mother India group of 'home-style' Indian cuisine, is situated opposite two other Kelvingrove landmarks, the museum and park. It doesn't take bookings, so be prepared to wait a few minutes for a table. It's…
OKO Express
78 Queen Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3DN
This sushi bar and Japanese grill redefines the post-pub/club fish supper when it reels in the beer-goggled during one of its late late opening nights. The bright red walls and semi-communal benches of a compact but surprisingly spacious dining area…
279 Café Bistro
279 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6AB
During the day, this café offers a selection of reasonably priced ciabattas, sandwiches, home-made pizzas and pasta dishes. By night, it turns itself into an elegant bistro offering an equally well-priced but inventive a la carte menu. The garlic…
Battlefield Rest
55 Battlefield Road,
Glasgow,
G42 9JL
Situated on a large traffic island outside the Victoria Royal Infirmary, this former tram terminus is indeed an odd location for one of the Southside's better restaurants. The building has been a landmark for nearly a century, with a clock tower and…
Louis' Bistro
18 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
Gibson Street is fast becoming the nucleus for West End dining, and Louis' Bistro has been growing in popularity since it opened in 2006. It's owned by the same team that runs the ever-wonderful No Sixteen [see Scottish], but the dishes here are more…
Stravaigin Café Bar
28 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
The café bar, located above the main restaurant in Gibson Street, is the most informal eatery in the popular Stravaigin stable of venues. Rustic ambience is everywhere; exposed stone walls, distressed wooden tables jammed in tight, fairy lights tangled…
Topolino's
285 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3HQ
Topolino's is Italian for Walt Disney's most-famous little rodent, but there is nothing Micky Mouse about this restaurant. It is entered by a narrow staircase, which leads diners down to a stylish basement taverna. This is no dark, dank underworld…
Massimo (Bearsden)
3/5 Kirk Road, Bearsden,
Glasgow,
G61 3RG
Massimo Bearsden is tucked away in a lane behind Bearsden Cross. From the outside, it might look like a small bar, but the interior opens up into a rather vast space. Cleverly divided by glass partitions, the premises include a bar, dining area and…
Observatory
138-140 Elderslie Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7AW
Observatory offers informal neighbourhood dining in a site pitched between the West End and city centre. Warm sandstone and scrubbed-wood finishes with plain, unlaid tables give an unpretentious and appropriately flexible feel for its diverse clientele…
Café Hula
321 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3PT
Café Hula has a bohemian air about it – wooden wall sconces hold flickering votive candles, and trailing pot plants hang at angles around huge, uneven-edged wooden tables, all watched over by an imposing statue of a skeletal, bible-clutching preacher.
Ikafe
138 Nithsdale Road,
Glasgow,
G41 5RB
Pollokshields' Ikafe has remained a popular local eatery since it first opened in 1999. Wooden floors, exposed brickwork and white walls dotted with bold prints combine to create a simple and stylish venue. Lunchtimes are busy, so booking is advisable…
