Argan Café
1166-1170 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 8TE
PLEASE NOTE: THIS RESTAURANT HAS NOW CLOSED
Review written spring 2007.
The décor of Argan Café is airy, reasonably elegant and quietly welcoming: white walls, wooden flooring and the choice of art conspire to create an impression of suave…
Aziza Café Bazaar
407 Great Western Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8HN
In early 2007, tiny Aziza Café Bazaar on Great Western Road moved to more spacious accommodation on the other side of Kelvin Bridge. The additional room allows charming owner Azmina Ali to up the ante on special event nights, which range from guest…
The Bay Tree Café
403 Great Western Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G4 9HY
This West End stalwart has long been popular with those looking for something a bit different. While the city offers more in this vein today, the Bay Tree remains a favourite of vegetarians and vegans (it was once completely meat-free). It draws…
Brel
39-43 Ashton Lane, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8SG
Scotland
These days, the only indoor smoker here is Jacques Brel, whose steely visage in various black and white portraits is exempt from the ban. The bar/restaurant bearing his name is the sole dedicated Belgian operation in Glasgow, and little has needed…
Café Cossachok
Russian Cultural Centre 38 Albion Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 5QP
Scotland
Forget frugality. Russia - that is 'all the Russias', from the Baltic to the Black Sea - arguably invented global cuisine long before it became fashionable, with culinary influences from fringe Asiatic regions to old Europe joining forces effectively.
Collage
Radisson SAS Hotel, 301 Argyle Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
One of the Radisson SAS hotel's two restaurants, Collage deserves to be busier than it is. Inside, bright paper tablecloths with food-related scribblings, colourful screens and wall hangings lend an air of cosy informality to the room, where the service…
Cottier's
93-95 Hyndland Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G11 5PX
Dowanhill Parish Church is a listed 19th century landmark which, for the past 15 years, has assumed the name of its original interior designer, Daniel Cottier. This multi-purpose venue has become an attractive West End hub that boasts one of Glasgow's…
Europa
8-10 West George Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 1DR
Football looms large in this busy city centre café-bar by Queen Street station, from the giant screen in the pub to numerous smaller versions above the comfortable dining booths in the adjoining restaurant wing. There's even another (rain-proof) model…
The Greek Golden Kebab
34 Sinclair Drive, Southside,
Glasgow,
G42 9QE
The Greek Golden Kebab isn't so much a restaurant as a licensed embassy for Greek Cypriot hospitality - a small but virtually perfectly-formed taverna bedecked with innumerable images and memorabilia of Cyprus, with jolly bazouki music completing the…
Khublai Khan
26 Candleriggs, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
While not yet competing with the longevity of the medieval Khan dynasties, this popular Mongolian-themed restaurant has been a Candleriggs mainstay for almost a decade. A giant wall frieze of an advancing Mongol army immediately grabs your attention…
Konaki
920 Sauchiehall Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7TF
A warm glow emanates from Konaki, a neighbourhood and ex-pat-oriented favourite that prides itself on authenticity and quality produce. There's a genuine taverna feel to the interior, which is lined with assorted crockery and aged pictures, while…
Mzouda
141 Elderslie Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 7AW
This family-run restaurant, named after a village in the Atlas Mountains, may look a little lonely on its corner in Elderslie Street, but inside is both elegant and inviting with its warm terracotta and blonde wood décor scheme. With immaculate table…
Parthenon
725 Great Western Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8QX
Murals depicting bearded Greek philosophers enjoying an amphora or two of wine grace the walls of the Parthenon, along with repro details of famous Athenian friezes. But that's about as far as the classical allusions go in the contemporary setting of…
Pivo Pivo
15 Waterloo Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 6AY
Pivo Pivo was one of Glasgow's first pubs to serve an extensive range of world beers - from Argentinian Quilmes to Kirin from Japan - and still largely trades on punters' tourism. Located right beside Central Station, its small bar area lies at the foot…
Salsa
63 Carlton Place, Southside,
Glasgow,
G5 9TW
Slowly, in the candle-lit space, all becomes clear: a sombrero, cowhide patches, earthy walls with photographs of poised Mexicans checking that tortillas are properly folded. This cosy basement venture near the Clyde is an easy walk from the city centre…
Shaqlawa
1116 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
We only spotted this new 'Kurdish Oriental' restaurant - apparently named after a town in Iraqi Kurdistan - in the run-up to printing our 14th edition of The List Eating & Drinking Guide. Perhaps Shaqlawa, the restaurant, is more evidence of 1) the…
Stavka
373-377 Sauchiehall Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 3HU
The bold lines and Cyrillic sobriquets of communist propaganda feature throughout Stavka's street-level bar and the airy beer hall within. The dark, catacombed 'Imperial Rooms' restaurant, however, opts for pre-revolutionary elitism instead. For such an…
Walkabout
128 Renfield Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 3AL
Kangaroo - evidently rivalling ostrich as a low-fat meat - is one of the few obviously Antipodean twists on the very large menu at this cavernous, but otherwise straightforward late opening 'superpub'. Apart from some aboriginal-inspired flourishes in…
WEST
Binnie Place, Glasgow Green, East End,
Glasgow,
G40 1AW
'He was a wise man who invented beer.' So said Plato, according to the menu at this Bavarian-style bar/restaurant on the edge of Glasgow Green. It would seem the owner is no slouch either, having set up his own brewery on-site to produce house beers in…
Zagros
192 Pitt Street, City Centre,
Glasgow,
G2 4DY
This contemporary bistro-style Middle Eastern/Kurdish restaurant is tucked round the corner from the Sauchiehall Street throngs - but judging by the sometimes busy midweek lunch trade, the word seems to be out. With its glass-topped tables and stripped…
Zorba Mediterranean Taverna
25 High Street, Merchant City,
Glasgow,
G1 1LX
There is no question that Dimitris (who refuses to divulge his surname) is passionate about the food his restaurant serves. An innocent question on the matter will lead to a vigorous reply of how he, along with co-owner/chef Theo, employ only the…
