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…
Alla Turca
192 Pitt Street,
Glasgow,
G2 4DY
This ambitious newcomer, from Òran Mór's former brasserie manager Burak Soyusinmez, has an agenda: to show that there's a lot more to Turkish cuisine than dodgy post-pub kebabs. And so Alla Turca's menu is one of two halves, with traditional dishes on…
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…
Cottier's
93–95 Hyndland Street,
Glasgow,
G11 5PX
Nestled in the eaves of one wing of an old church that also houses a theatre and bar is Cottier's restaurant. Decorated in gold and blue and lit with fairy lights, the dining room can feel like one of Glasgow's more romantic settings. The food is…
Driftwood
2–4 St Georges Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6UJ
Driftwood has been a fixture of Charing Cross for a few years now, offering cheap and cheerful food to hungry students and weary shoppers. The dining area is decked out in the 'traditional' Mexican terracotta and yellow, though it's actually barely…
Kember & Jones
134 Byres Road,
Glasgow,
G12 8TD
Everything about Kember & Jones speaks of quality: pale wood cabinets laden with fine continental delicacies, huge terracotta bowls of olives beside organic artisan breads and a table of hip cookbooks that invites browsing while you wait. And wait you…
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…
Stravaigin
28–30 Gibson Street,
Glasgow,
G12 8NX
With more foodies demanding the best of world flavours without the carbon footprint to match, never has Stravaigin's motto 'think global, eat local' been more appropriate. The ever-evolving menu ticks all the latest food fashion boxes, and features…
Café Cossachok
38 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1LH
Cossachok successfully embraces multiple identities: it's part gallery, part cultural centre and part music venue, yet still essentially a restaurant. Temporarily relocated until 2009 (while their ten-year home on the other side of the Trongate is…
Europa
8–10 West George Street,
Glasgow,
G2 1DR
There are two big selling points for this barnlike bar: its proximity to Queen Street Station and George Square and its many TV screens showing football, which draw large crowds for big games. There's a giant one indoors, mini-screens above the booths…
Bibi's Cantina
599 Dumbarton Road,
Glasgow,
G11 6HY
Bibi's Cantina is a recent but welcome arrival on the restaurant scene. It's like stepping into someone's living room – you'll find it has a welcoming and homely vibe with subtle touches of Latin American design in the décor. A few kitsch Mexican…
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…
The Greek Golden Kebab
34 Sinclair Drive,
Glasgow,
G42 9QE
Those unfamiliar with this Southside favourite might think the Greek Golden Kebab is a loving pastiche of a bygone age. Trellises between the six compact booths display fake vines and souvenirs, while tourist board photos of the owners' Cypriot homeland…
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…
Aziza Café Bazaar
407 Great Western Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9JA
This exotic multicultural café and bazaar offers the warmest of welcomes. Billowing crimson drapes, bejewelled tiles and colourful glass lanterns create an atmosphere that's part Bedouin tent, part Moroccan tea-house, part souk (with most of the décor…
Brel
39–43 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
The interiors of this converted stable and coach house maintain their rustic charms, particularly with the original white glazed brick walls and heavy wooden doors. Many who come here for a bite enjoy eating in the small space with butcher paper-covered…
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…
Mzouda
141 Elderslie Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7AW
This small, welcoming restaurant, tucked away near Charing Cross, mixes the Moroccan traditions of chef/owner Hamid Benhach's childhood with Spanish and Catalan recipes he picked up while working in Barcelona. It's an appealing cultural blend of…
Collage
Radisson SAS Hotel, 301 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
Tucked away inside the dramatic copper, glass and slate hulk of the design award-winning Radisson SAS building on Argyle Street, Collage is one of two Mediterranean-themed restaurants in the hotel atrium, alongside tapas bar TaPaell’Ya [see Spanish].
Pancho Villa's
26 Bell Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1LG
Mexican restaurants are often easily identified by their bright décor. Here, pink and terracotta walls, plus colourful Mexican art, make a rather large – and potentially draughty – space seem warm and inviting. The restaurant has a cheerful, lively…
Khublai Khan
26 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1LD
The novelty value of Khublai Khan makes it a good choice for first dates, because the fun of selecting your own food from the buffet – rice or noodles, veg, meat or fish, sauces and spices – then taking it to the chef to be cooked, would give even the…
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…
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.
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…
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…
Walkabout
128 Renfield Street,
Glasgow,
G2 3AL
While other Glasgow pubs may aspire to gastro-pub status, Walkabout, housed in one corner of the giant Cineworld complex, is content to serve its predominant student and sports fan clientele lashings of beer with simple pub grub. This large…
