The Finnieston
1125 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8ND
As you enter the snug bar decked with rope bannisters, polished wood and boat motifs you could be in a sleepy fishing village pub rather than on the main Finnieston strip. This smarter, more grown up sister to Lebowskis down the road really does looks…
Balbir's
7 Church Street,
Glasgow,
G11 5JP
Balbir Sumal’s years of experience in catering for Glasgow’s curry lovers distinctively shines through in this eponymous West End branch. It may feel more like an upmarket European eatery, but the appetizing aromas that assault you as you enter firmly…
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…
The Hidden Lane Tearoom
8 Argyle Court, 1103 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8ND
Tucked down a cobbled lane off Argyle Street, the Hidden Lane Tearoom is one of those rare places where everything comes together seamlessly. The décor is shabby chic – all duck-egg blue highlights, floral bunting, artfully mismatched furniture and…
Boteco do Brasil
62 Trongate,
Glasgow,
G1 5EP
Inside this lively bohemian hangout the carnival atmosphere hits you. Brazilian flags and bold cultural murals set the scene while large screens ensure you don’t miss any footie action while supping a Brahma beer or caipirinha – Brazil’s national…
28–30 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
As this place pops up in most Glasgow guides, many a nationality can be found rubbing shoulders with die-hard regulars enjoying interesting Scottish produce given an international twist. Stravaigin’s well-known branding is ‘think local, eat global’. The…
Stereo
20-28 Renfield Lane,
Glasgow,
G2 5AR
Although it’s hard to catch the full vista from the narrow lane, Stereo is housed in a superb Charles Rennie Mackintosh-designed building, all exterior white tiles and square windows with double doors opening into a leisurely eating and drinking space…
Bruadar
The Millhouse, 2 Partickbridge Street,
Glasgow,
G11 6PL
Opened in late 2011, Bruadar is an attractive, minimalistic venue over two floors with bench seating downstairs and a more intimate mezzanine, all flooded with light from the large window. Theirs is a simple enough formula – beer and a burger – but with…
42 Jamaica Street,
Glasgow,
G1 4QG
At this time last year the upstairs eating section of MacSorley’s was going for a full-blown, fine-dining approach. The food was great, but the juxtaposition of such cuisine in an old-school pub, albeit a music-focused one with a young clientele, was…
Martha's
142a St Vincent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 5LQ
Goodness, in a word. Created with care and calculation (every nutritional detail is shown on the menu) by real chefs, Martha’s moreish menu proves to the as-yet unconverted that healthy can mean hearty. The menu is seasonal but may include everything…
Battlefield Rest
55 Battlefield Road,
Glasgow,
G42 9JL
Prepare for your senses to go into overdrive when you visit this gem of a restaurant. It's brimming with tables, diners and waiters, and if you could bottle the atmosphere then you’d surely be able to sell it, if only to the people who fill this place…
Bistro at One Devonshire Gardens
1 Devonshire Gardens,
Glasgow,
G12 0UX
It may have endured several makeovers, reinventions and name changes, but the restaurant of luxury hotel One Devonshire Gardens was always an elegant and memorable place to eat even when the kitchen wasn’t at its peak. Now with Darin Campbell returning…
Brian Maule at Chardon d'Or
176 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4RL
Trained in France, and having lead the Michelin-starred La Gavroche kitchen in London, one expects Mr Maule to conjure up truly accomplished dishes. And he does. Everything from the crisp white table cloths, black leather chairs to the sharply dressed…
Masala Twist
192–194 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8SN
A relative newcomer to Glasgow’s curry scene, Masala Twist certainly manages to hold its own, pulling some surprising punches. The staff instantly make you feel welcome, in a genuine, honest, and natural manner. Split over two small floors, the…
Wau Cafe
27 Old Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G3 8RD
Unlike the other Malaysian restaurants in Glasgow who include Chinese or Thai dishes on their menu, the Wau Café concentrates on Malaysian Malay food. The small informal café, with only room for a handful of tables, has a disproportionately extensive…
The Drake
1 Lynedoch Street,
Glasgow,
G3 6EF
While the basement bar is a cosy, casual hangout, the unusual restaurant upstairs is a surprise: two beautiful Victorian dining rooms which create an atmosphere more like an evening at Downton Abbey than a restaurant. With a fine view onto Woodlands…
Kitsch Inn
214 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4HW
A Thai restaurant kitted-out in Polynesian iconography and 50s Americana might seem a tad incongruous, but authentic ‘tiki’ bars (of which there is one, aptly named The Tiki Bar, downstairs) tend to have accompanying restaurants serving south-east Asian…
The Left Bank
33–35 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NU
Within its warren of nooks and crannies, the Left Bank offers a kaleidoscopic take on casual dining. Aimed squarely at the broadsheet-reading classes of this undergraduate-heavy area, and housed within a refurbished, multi-levelled bank building, it…
The Pelican Café
1377 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AF
Sitting opposite the Kelvingrove Museum and Art Gallery means there is plenty of footfall for the retro-style Pelican. Yet clearly they're intent on matching quantity with quality, for there's a careful attention to detail on their menu, which proudly…
Cookie
72 Nithsdale Road,
Glasgow,
G41 2AN
Cookie’s owners are passionate about food and source it in all kinds of cookie ways, even bartering with allotment owners to get ultra local produce. No two visits are the same as there’s always something new and interesting to eat or drink. This is no…
Fratelli Sarti
42 Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1NF
There is an expectation with Italian restaurants that the experience be one of feeling loved and entertained as well as fed, yet few manage to pull off the feat with such aplomb as Fratelli Sarti. There's a uniformity of excellence across all three…
225a West George Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2ND
The sign of a good fish restaurant is how well the front and back of house work in close synchronicity. Gamba has that instinctive, almost telepathic communication between cook and floor staff meaning everyone is alert to the unique properties of your…
Mother India
28 Westminster Terrace, Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7RU
A much-loved Glasgow institution, Mother India's flagship restaurant is set over three floors, each with its own unique character. The small dining area on the ground floor is bright and casual, the first floor is grand with dark wood and candles, and…
Saramago Café Bar
CCA, 350 Sauchiehall Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3JD
Occupying a light, airy atrium in the heart of the CCA, Saramago draws a bohemian crowd – you’re more likely to find an up-and-coming conceptual artist or filmmaker at the next table than a weary Sauchiehall Street shopper. The menu is a tour of mostly…
Art Lover's Café
House for an Art Lover, Bellahouston Park, 10 Dumbreck Road,
Glasgow,
G41 5BW
The Art Lover’s Café offers an elegant, yet relaxed dining experience. The walls of its serene white dining room play host to frequently changing art exhibitions, but there’s artistry on the plates too. Salads and upmarket sandwiches (think char-grilled…
