Guy's
24 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
Guy's twinkles warmly in the Merchant City firmament. It's a big, long room, but you can feel at home amid the accumulated bric-a-brac sprinkled lightly about the interior. These include Mexican Day of the Dead plates, an imposing carved bird lectern…
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…
Catch 22 Restaurant & Bar
158–166 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4TB
Stefan King's various holdings are not best known for their cuisine, but from its launch in 2006 the G1 Group's Catch 22 Restaurant & Bar has put food to the fore. Chef David Thompson's predominantly but not exclusively fish and seafood oriented menu…
Pani Solińska
73 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RJ
Pani Solinska is Polish for 'Mrs Solinska'. Dorothy Nowak-Solinska took over Broughton Street landmark Café Mediterraneo last year, but before putting her name above the door in spring 2008 took some time to design a restaurant she could be proud of.
Corinthian/Lite Bar
191 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1DA
As we went to press with the 15th edition edition of The List Eating & Drinking Guide, this G1 Group-run landmark was preparing for another rejigging (with the six-week works due to commence in spring 2008). But as the building is listed, its owners can…
The Loft Bar & Restaurant
The Grosvenor Theatre, Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
Set above the Grosvenor Cinema, The Loft is one of the largest establishments on Ashton Lane and as such is packed at the weekend with students and young professionals from across Glasgow. Midweek sees more locals venturing into this vast, airy space.
The Lot
4 Grassmarket,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2JU
Despite its rather grand situation in an old church, which nestles in the shadow of Edinburgh Castle, The Lot is a colourful, somewhat unassuming café-cum-restaurant with a lot of charm. The ceilings are high, the colours bright, and people come at all…
Monteiths
57–61 High Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1SR
Spanking new Monteiths brings a touch of glitz and glamour to this section of the Royal Mile, more commonly associated with pubs and tourist attractions. The entrance is down a vine-arched and lit alleyway next to Moubray House, at the bottom of which…
Zanzero
15 North West Circus Place,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6SX
Opened in 2007, this is the younger, slightly brasher sibling of the city centre establishment Centotre, owned by Victor and Carina Contini. Many aspects of the two are consistent, including the insistence on high quality, largely organic local produce…
Tinto Tapas Bar
138 Battlefield Road,
Glasgow,
G42 9JT
With the Victoria Infirmary and Langside College providing something of a captive audience, Battlefield Road sustains a fair range of food outlets and, since 2007, Tinto has been adding a little Iberian flavour to the line-up. In contrast with some…
blue
10 Cambridge Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 2ED
In applying Slow Food philosophies, properly educating its staff and delivering superbly designed dishes, blue is doing a lot of things right. A fastidious sourcing policy forms the restaurant's backbone, the name of the game being those elusive goals…
Daniel's Bistro
88 Commercial Street,
Edinburgh,
EH6 6LX
Situated in the modern development along Commercial Quay, Daniel's is a temple to all things French – with a good dose of Scottish thrown in. Owner Daniel Vencker is originally from Alsace, but is keen to embrace his adopted country in all aspects of…
Gamba
225a West George Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2ND
Gamba celebrates its tenth anniversary in 2008, and one would be hard-pressed to name a more consistently excellent, top-end restaurant in Glasgow over the same time period. It's not only that chef and co-owner Derek Marshall doesn't ever settle for…
The Living Room
113–115 George Street,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4JN
As the Edinburgh representative of a 13-branch national chain, the Living Room fits snugly into George Street's plush aesthetic. A busy bar leads into a vast dining area, hemmed in by brown leather booths and backlit drapes. Soft browns and beiges run…
Blueglass
45 Morningside Road,
Edinburgh,
EH10 4AZ
Occupying a prime location on a busy corner of Morningside Road, Blue Glass, with its crisp blue and white décor and relaxed, family-friendly atmosphere, brings a hint of the Mediterranean to Edinburgh's Southside. Café by day and bistro by night, it…
The Bothy
11 Ruthven Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 9BG
Tucked away in Ruthven Lane, a stone's throw from the hustle and bustle of Byres Road, the Bothy combines modern design with traditional touches, creating a look somewhere between country hotel sitting room and trendy style bar. The kitchen aims to…
Iglu
2b Jamaica Street,
Edinburgh,
EH3 6HH
Iglu is a venue that takes its organic, local and ethical food policy very seriously. But don't feel guilty if you need to take a taxi there should you find it hard to locate: it's hidden away from the main drag of the city centre and lurks…
North Bridge Brasserie
20 North Bridge,
Edinburgh,
EH1 1YT
Already highly regarded for stylish, good-quality food and service, North Bridge Brasserie (part of the Scotsman Hotel) was about to undergo a comprehensive refurbishment as we went to press in April 2008. The heritage-listed wood and marble features…
The Sisters
1a Ashwood Gardens, 512 Crow Road,
Glasgow,
G13 1NU
Since moving from Ashton Lane to Jordanhill a few years back, the Sisters restaurant has become regarded as one of the better options in Glasgow. But its location off the beaten track made it one of the trickiest to find (though once you've been, it is…
Urban Bar & Brasserie
23–25 St Vincent Place,
Glasgow,
G1 2DT
Elegance and glamour are evident when you enter this venture owned by the team behind the successful Gamba restaurant. Dark wood flooring, black leather banquettes and white linen table clothes give a classic feel to the dining room, while a centrepiece…
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…
Manna
104 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2EN
Manna, another successful enterprise in restaurateur Alan Tomkin's empire (Gamba, Urban Grill, etc), is tucked away in the basement of a Bath Street townhouse. Despite such seclusion, this reincarnation of the former Papingo is clearly sought after…
sygn
15 Charlotte Lane,
Edinburgh,
EH2 4QZ
Sygn has been quietly building a reputation for quality since it first appeared in a fuzzy pink glow in 2004. In both style and substance it is the equal of any of the bars on George Street. Subdued lighting, considered décor and plush furnishings set…
Olive Branch Bistro
91 Broughton Street,
Edinburgh,
EH1 3RX
Broughton Street is not lacking in places to eat, so any restaurant looking to make its mark has to offer great food with an atmosphere to match. The Olive Branch has both in spades. In a compact, almost post-industrial-style setting, candle-lit tables…
