Art Lover's Café
House for an Art Lover, Bellahouston Park, 10 Dumbreck Road, Glasgow, G41 5BW
House for an Art Lover is a grand-scale realisation of a Charles Rennie Mackintosh design, built to amended plans in the 1990s and set in the busiest and prettiest corner of Bellahouston Park. There's a beautifully maintained walled garden, some dry ski…
Ashoka at the Mill
500 Corselet Road, Darnley, Glasgow, G53 7RN
Located in the city's Southside, Ashoka at the Mill is a more recent addition to the Harlequin Group's empire. There is a family feel to the restaurant, thanks mostly to the children running in and out of Poppa Dom's Playzone, which takes up one wing of…
Ashoka Bearsden
9 Kirk Road, Bearsden, Glasgow, G61 3RG
Tucked away in the quaint backstreets of the salubrious Glasgow suburb of Bearsden, this outpost of the Harlequin Group is perhaps unlikely to become a destination dining option for many city dwellers. This might please local diners, but would be a…
Balbir's
7 Church Street, Glasgow, G11 5JP
Balbir's modern interior is plush and well lit, decorated in warm reds and clean whites, and the space is large and open enough for bigger parties while still accommodating those looking for a more intimate meal. The food is as modern as the setting.
Bar Milano
2 Mains Avenue, Eastwood Toll, Glasgow, G46 6QZ
Situated a stone's throw from Eastwood Toll, Bar Milano has made its home in an old bank building. A large bunch of fresh flowers welcomes diners as they walk through the door, adding a sophisticated touch to the interior. It has been cleverly renovated…
The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HY
The long-established Bay Tree likes to keep things fairly simple, with its unassuming layout and Middle Eastern knick-knacks around the walls. The same goes for its menu, which comprises a mixture of Arabian, Mediterranean and European dishes at…
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…
Brooklyn Café
21 Minard Road, Glasgow, G41 2HR
The Brooklyn Café first opened in 1931 and its award-winning ice-cream has made it something of a Southside institution. Ask a member of staff and watch them become positively dewy-eyed about their main attraction. Ice-cream sundaes at Brooklyn are a…
Budda
8 Cresswell Lane, Glasgow, G12 8AA
Four years after opening in the West End, Budda still offers something of an ethnic cocoon. Gold statues line the bar, Balinese lanterns hang from rich orange walls and twisted wooden chairs create a sense of far-eastern intimacy overlooking the cobbles…
Buongiorno
1012 Pollokshaws Road, Glasgow, G41 2HG
On the busy road south into Shawlands, Buongiorno is a family-run and family-friendly café and restaurant with a lively atmosphere and a reputation as a neighbourhood favourite. The relatively small space is often full of convivial chatter from diners…
Café Mao
84 Brunswick Street, Glasgow, G1 1TD
The relaxed atmosphere and pan-Asian menu at Café Mao have attracted a steady flow of easygoing diners for nearly a decade. Big windows, bright lighting and the primary colours of its branding make sure things don't get too formal, and the winning staff…
Café Salma
523 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7PQ
Since opening in 2007, the charming and informal Café Salma has quickly gained a loyal custom – and a reputation that belies its youth. The bright interior's idiosyncratic décor, wall-mounted television and busy open kitchen give the place an authentic…
CCA Bar and Café
350 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3JD
The Centre for Contemporary Arts, a cultural oasis amid Sauchiehall Street's noisy parade of bars and clubs, is the place to come if you're after a coffee or a meal without selling out to The Man – the café uses fair trade and organic produce wherever…
Cherry & Heather Fine Food
7 North Gower Street, Glasgow, G51 1PW
Starting with a menu that kicks off with a home-made vegetarian sushi box (£1.95), it's immediately apparent that Cherry & Heather is not your typical takeaway. This exemplary bolt-hole in Cessnock (just off Paisley Road West, next to Bellahouston post…
Chow
98 Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8TB
Bright lights, clean lines and minimal modern décor mark Chow out from most other Chinese restaurants in town. It's a little breath of fresh air that's been right at home among the hustle-bustle of Byres Road since opening its doors in 2002. Food is…
Coia's Café
473 Duke Street, Glasgow, G31 1NG
Coia's has been dishing out Italian favourites, chip shop classics and, of course, its famous home-made ice-cream since it first opened its doors in 1928. Following a 2006 facelift and expansion – which included adding a well-stocked delicatessen…
Di Maggio's
1038 Pollokshaws Road, Glasgow, G41 3EB
After more than 25 years in business, Di Maggio's is a firm favourite with loyal locals and tourists alike visiting its various outlets. Even outside peak times, the Royal Exchange Square branch welcomes a stream of customers, attracted by the efficient…
Di Maggio's
21 Royal Exchange Square, Glasgow, G1 3AJ
After more than 25 years in business, Di Maggio's is a firm favourite, with loyal locals and tourists alike visiting its various outlets. The Royal Exchange Square branch welcomes a stream of customers, even outside the peak times, attracted by the…
Di Maggio's
61 Ruthven Lane, Glasgow, G12 9BG
After more than 25 years in business, Di Maggio's is a firm favourite with loyal locals and tourists alike visiting its various outlets. Even outside peak times, the Royal Exchange Square branch welcomes a stream of customers, attracted by the efficient…
Di Maggio's Theatreland
163 West Nile Street, Glasgow, G1 2RL
More than two decades old, the Di Maggio's chain is going strong and regularly wins awards for its 'family-friendliness'. This outlet, formerly known as Pronto, is the so-called Theatreland branch and now uses the same menu as the others. But it's…
Dino's
99 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 6LL
Glasgow institutions for four decades now, Dino's restaurants have perhaps two of the best locations in the city centre, with the Sauchiehall Street branch barely a stone's throw from the Royal Concert Hall and the outlet on Hope Street situated…
Dino's
35–41 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3AT
Glasgow institutions for four decades now, Dino's restaurants have perhaps two of the best locations in the city centre, with the Sauchiehall Street branch barely a stone's throw from the Royal Concert Hall and the outlet on Hope Street situated…
Dragon-i
311–313 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 3PT
Since opening opposite the Theatre Royal in 2003, Dragon-i has sat at the top table of Glasgow's Chinese restaurants, and owners Raymond and Susie Man are proud that their venture attempts something markedly different. With the décor, they've opted for…
Eat
16 Busby Road, Clarkston, Glasgow, G76 7BG
Eat is exactly what this deli/café in Clarkston encourages one to do. Freshly prepared, restaurant-standard ready meals fill the counter. Typically, you might find a frittata with spinach and olives or Serrano ham-wrapped chicken breast with roast…
Enjoy
393–395 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HY
The pavements of the Great Western Road see more striders than strollers. So competing cafés often need something extra to get bums on seats. For Enjoy, the selling point is the real food ethos of its Kosovan owners, Sebo and Manuella Brestovca. There…
Filling Station
46 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HG
The Filling Station undoubtedly benefits from its location on a busy stretch of Renfield Street – so much so that it is often bustling, right through the week. Being a US-themed restaurant, there are naturally the obligatory 'motel', 'gas station' and…
Firebird
1321 Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8TL
Openly positioned on a corner of Argyle Street in an area now filled with dining choices, Firebird celebrates it tenth year in 2008 – still winning new customers with its mix of laid-back ambience, good, affordable food and friendly staff. Smokers and…
GSC Café
50 Pacific Quay, Glasgow, G51 1EA
Seemingly lifting itself out of the Clyde like a great silver-scaled beast, Glasgow Science Centre is a child's wonderland of levers and buttons and things that whirr and ping. The near-constant clatter and wail of kids learning and having fun can make…
JAM
28–30 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3PQ
Shawlands is becoming a thriving hub of bars and gastro-pubs, with new ventures popping up out of nowhere on a seemingly weekly basis. While some vanish as quickly as they appear, JAM on Kilmarnock Road has hit on a winning formula that has kept…
Kebabish
323–325 Victoria Road, Glasgow, G42 7SA
While no longer a part of the Kebabish Original chain, this Govanhill eatery continues to lure customers with its flame-filled open kitchen, contemporary interior and tremendous value for money. Above all, it still delivers on its promise of 'the thrill…
KG Café
Kelvingrove Park, Argyle Street, Glasgow, G3 8AG
When the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum reopened in 2006 after extensive refurbishment, much was made of its jumble-sale eclecticism – a mash-up of stuffed animals and Spitfires, weird fossils and Impressionist oils. A place of uniting contrasts…
Killermont Polo Club
2022 Maryhill Road, Glasgow, G20 0AB
Located on an unremarkable section of Maryhill Road in a former polo clubhouse, this restaurant attracts most of its custom through glowing recommendations rather than luring the passing trade. The main dining room is decorated in the style of a hotel…
Koh-i-Noor
235 North Street, Glasgow, G3 7DL
Walking into the Koh-i-Noor, named after the famous Indian diamond gifted to Queen Victoria, is a bit like being transported onto a Bollywood film set. It first opened in 1964 on Gibson Street before relocating to its current location aside the M8, and…
Konaki
920 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G3 7TF
Family is important at Konaki. The kitchen uses home-grown olive oil matured in Grandma's cellar, wild herbs gathered on island holidays and recipes handed down through generations. Front of house, children receive an indulgent welcome, the whole…
La Lanterna
35 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 6AE
For almost four decades, the Martinolli family have been serving up traditional Italian cuisine in their attractive, cavernous restaurant beneath the otherwise unedifying, traffic-choking Hope Street. The décor has remained almost untouched – a warm…
The Liquid Ship
171 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9AW
With its dark wood, whitewashed brick walls and quirky array of clocks, posters and nautical paraphernalia, The Liquid Ship is a laid back location in which to drink and dine. The menu, though compact, is dominated by well-sourced ingredients and…
Lock 27
1100 Crow Road, Glasgow, G13 1JT
Tucked away by the Forth and Clyde Canal in Anniesland, Lock 27 can be tricky to find. This fact is perhaps borne out by a clientele of mostly local regulars – from twentysomethings to pensioners – in for a social pint or to catch a game on one of the…
Mancini
315–317 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G4 9HR
Located closer to the St George's Cross end of Great Western Road, Mancini is a bit away from the hub of the West End. This intimate place feels a little like a well-lit wine cellar with bare brick walls (hung in places with fairly lights), leather…
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…
Minsky's
Glasgow Hilton, 1 William Street, Glasgow, G3 8HT
Of the two restaurants within Glasgow's five-star city centre Hilton, the casual option is Minsky's. This self-styled 'New York-style brasserie' operates arguably more like a Midwestern-style massive buffet, offering a bewildering array of food.
Miss Cranston's Tearoom
33 Gordon Street, Glasgow, G1 4PF
Perhaps it is unfair to judge Miss Cranston's Tearoom on a wet midweek afternoon, when the manager has been on leave and the café feels rather like an empty hotel dining room. This is an old-style Glasgow caff, whose largely unchanging formula has led…
Mr India's West End Balti and Dosa House
11–13 Hyndland Street, Glasgow, G11 5QE
Slightly hidden just off Dumbarton Road, Mr India's West End Balti and Dosa House has a 1970s curryhouse atmosphere. Its cheerful dining room is full of snug corners and potted plants, with dark wood and cream walls, while a red ceiling – complete with…
Montgomery's Coffee House
9 Radnor Street, Glasgow, G3 7UA
Montgomery's, which sits thinly between a pub and a GP's surgery, is easily missed, but once you're inside, you'll find the interior opens to an unexpected and calming sense of space. A world map hangs on the corniced ceiling and local artists exhibit…
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…
Mussel Inn
157 Hope Street, Glasgow, G2 2UQ
Owned by shellfish farmers, the Mussel Inn presents a range of basic mussel and scallop dishes, and it is distinctly possible that the key ingredients of your meal were harvested only hours earlier. While there is a daily finned fish special (on this…
O Sole Mio
34–36 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HG
This quaint little trattoria at the east end of Bath Street is now in its fifth decade. The interior is traditional, with booths separated by wooden trellises, while the open kitchen is shrouded under a faded maroon canopy. There's a nice air of…
One
Crowne Plaza Hotel, 3 Congress Road, Glasgow, G3 8QT
A window table at One, which is stationed in the vast lobby of the Crowne Plaza hotel, will offer an unrivalled view of both the River Clyde and the new BBC Scotland building across the water. If you can't spot any celebrities on the other bank, you…
Osteria Piero
111 West Regent Street, Glasgow, G2 2RU
Aiming for a 'fresher, up-to-the-minute approach to Italian cooking', this new venture from Piero Sarti (where Bouzy Rouge once traded) has a concise menu that changes seasonally. The atmosphere is straight out of a Tuscany trattoria with wooden tables…
Papa Gill's
337 Dumbarton Road, Glasgow, G11 6AL
The Partick flagship of this modest Indian diner-café is something of a local institution, serving everything from filled rolls before noon to late-night curries, with a selection of burgers and other takeaway fare in between. Prices are reasonable. A…
Paperino's
283 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3HQ
With its smart whitewashed walls, terracotta tiling and consistently well-populated pine booths, the Sauchiehall Street branch of this deceptively large restaurant is still going strong after 16 years. Increasingly, its much newer and more spacious West…
Paperino's West End
227 Byres Road, Glasgow, G12 8UD
With its smart whitewashed walls, terracotta tiling and consistently well-populated pine booths, the Sauchiehall Street branch of this deceptively large restaurant is still going strong after 16 years. Increasingly, its much newer and more spacious West…
Il Pavone
The Courtyard, Princes Square, Buchanan Street, City Centre, Glasgow, G1 3JN
The grand peacock sitting above Princes Square's entrance, overlooking Buchanan Street's shoppers, gives its name in Italian to Il Pavone, whose diners can watch those inside Glasgow's most upmarket shopping centre. It's a favourite daytime haunt for…
Pizza Express
151 Queen Street, Glasgow, G1 3BJ
In 1965 Peter Boizot, an eccentric English entrepreneur, teamed up with a fiery Italian designer named Enzo Apicella to create a style-conscious restaurant in Soho. Pizza Express has since mushroomed into 300 restaurants across Great Britain. Both…
Pizza Express
432–436 Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow, G2 3JD
In 1965 Peter Boizot, an eccentric English entrepreneur, teamed up with a fiery Italian designer named Enzo Apicella to create a style-conscious restaurant in Soho. Pizza Express has since mushroomed into 300 restaurants across Great Britain. Both…
Primo
14–16 Stewart House, Stewart Street, Milngavie, Glasgow, G62 6BW
Tucked away off the village's main shopping street, Primo can be hard to find for those who are not in the know. If, however, the search causes any stress, the smiling and gracious staff should put you at ease when you finally get there. This restaurant…
Qua Italian Restaurant
The Todd Building, 68 Ingram Street, Glasgow, G1 1EX
This restaurant has a modern feel that is highly suitable for its trendy Merchant City location. The leather chairs are contemporary but comfortable, and an eclectic collection of smooth boulders are scattered about the space. A stylish, roughly hewn…
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…
Roma Mia
162–164 Darnley Street, Glasgow, G41 2LL
Accommodating is the word that best describes this Southside restaurant: parking is very easy and it's located near the Pollokshields East train station, just one stop from Central. Co-owner Giuseppe Di Milta also says that the note on the menu about…
Shish Mahal
66–68 Park Road, Glasgow, G4 9JF
This bastion of British-Indian dining is nearly 50 years old and is run by the same family that opened it in 1964. The Shish, as it's known to regulars, remains an atmospheric place in which to spend an evening. The smart, well-designed interiors – and…
Stazione
1051 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 0XP
Stazione is a Mediterranean-style restaurant housed in what was once a Victorian railway station near Gartnavel Hospital. An unlikely location, perhaps, but one that has been pulling in a steady stream of diners for over ten years. A large neutral…
Tawa & Grill
146–148 Nelson Street, Glasgow, G5 8EJ
The smart and contemporary Tawa & Grill provides proof – if you needed reminding – that a trip to Nelson Street in Tradeston possesses nearly all the virtues of a journey halfway across Asia. That this dilapidated zone south of the Clyde has become one…
TGI Friday's
113 Buchanan Street, Glasgow, G1 3HF
Now in its 15th year of serving up hearty American favourites to families, office parties and numerous other punters, TGI Friday's is as busy as ever (and by some accounts it's the most popular restaurant in the city). The chain operation's formula of…
Tramway Café Bar
25 Albert Drive, Glasgow, G41 2PE
At the time of going to press, the Tramway Café Bar was refining some final details before unveiling a new menu and a new look in April. Its menu of healthy, hearty food – which includes a popular vegetarian breakfast – is set to become, if anything…
University Café
87 Byres Road, Glasgow, G11 5HN
Visiting the University Café is like free-falling back to childhood seaside holidays, where the whole experience is simultaneously comforting and exotic. Dark wooden panelling and flock wallpaper surround the pink formica tables and red vinyl seats. A…
Urban Grill
61 Kilmarnock Road, Glasgow, G41 3YR
The Southside of Glasgow has several up-and-coming neighbourhoods, and the introduction of stylish bars and restaurants to the Shawlands district confirms its place in particular as a desirable location. Perhaps no one targets this emerging affluence…
La Vita
161 Queen Street, Glasgow, G1 3BJ
Favourably situated with views onto George Square, this three-tier establishment attracts a thriving trade with an extensive, unpretentious menu that combines simple, fast-food efficiency with reasonably well-made cuisine. Some of the seating on the…
WEST
Binnie Place, Glasgow Green, Glasgow, G40 1AW
The periphery of Glasgow Green might seem like an odd place for a Bavarian beer hall. But this brewery, bar and restaurant, housed in the stunning former Templeton carpet factory, has much to recommend it – not least the many varieties of beer on tap…
Yumla
80 Miller Street, Glasgow, G1 1DT
Yumla's snazzy entrance is not far from Argyle Street. But it is a doorway into an impressively grandiose space with a sense of calm one wouldn't think possible so close to the shopping thoroughfare. Décor is a clever blend of modern and imperial…
Zorba Mediterranean Taverna
25 High Street, Glasgow, G1 1LX
This old-fashioned family-run taverna is about as cheesy as a package holiday to a sunny island resort. But its staff are friendly to a fault, with impromptu dancing and cheerful service. Most importantly, the food is excellent. The cosy room is…
