Ad Lib
111 Hope Street,
Glasgow,
G2 6LL
Glasgow's two Ad Libs have carved a niche as perhaps the more mature establishments that focus on US-style cuisine. The newer Merchant City outlet has a grander atmosphere, with marble walls and well-spaced booths that give it a chic, cosmopolitan…
Ad Lib
33 Ingram Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1HA
Glasgow's two Ad Libs have carved a niche as perhaps the more mature establishments that focus on US-style cuisine. The newer Merchant City outlet has a grander atmosphere, with marble walls and well-spaced booths that give it a chic, cosmopolitan…
Alishan
250 Battlefield Road,
Glasgow,
G42 9HU
Still going strong after more than 20 years in business, Mount Florida's Alishan tandoori restaurant is an unapologetically old-fashioned Glasgow Indian, complete with tropical fish tanks, a predominantly 1980s soundtrack and a menu that reads like an…
All Bar One
62–72 St Vincent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 5TS
With floor-to-ceiling windows on the corner of St Vincent and West Nile streets, All Bar One is well placed to watch the world go by over a drink or a bite. Such is its bustling nature, however, it seems as if few people have time to linger at its…
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…
Amalfi Pizzeria
148 West Nile Street,
Glasgow,
G1 2RQ
What do Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin, Cary Grant and Errol Flynn all have in common, aside from the obvious? Amalfi Pizzeria. Or more specifically, its glitzier former guise as the Lido Café, which, being situated suitably close to the famous old Glasgow…
Amarone
2 Nelson Mandela Place,
Glasgow,
G2 1BT
Conceived as a more upmarket venture by the owners of the popular Italian restaurant chain DiMaggio's, Amarone immediately impresses with an elegant entrance and staircase leading to a stylish, modern basement dining room. High stained glass windows…
Amber Chinese Restaurant
130-132 Byres Road, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8TD
The idea of a classy Chinese restaurant conjures up images of dimly-lit interiors with plush flock wallpaper and maybe an aquarium. The Amber retains the classiness and tries to refresh the traditional style with dark wood and drapery adorning the…
Amber Regent
50 West Regent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2QZ
From the classily understated sign in the window to the photos of celebrity customers at the entrance, and from the thick drapery that flanks paintings by a local artist to the cute little thistles that garnish each table, it's clear that Amber Regent…
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…
L'Aragosta
213–215 St Andrew's Road,
Glasgow,
G41 1PD
Football – alongside quality cuisine – is evidently a serious passion of Domenico Rossi, the head chef and joint proprietor at L'Aragosta since 2006. There's a national team calendar hanging above the doorway near a careworn tricolore. Elsewhere, a…
Arcaffe
7 North Claremont Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7NR
Arcaffe is an unassuming place that might be mistaken for a coffee shop or sandwich takeaway due to its exterior décor. Under new ownership since 2007, it has a slight 'in transition' feel about it, and as this guide went to press there were plans to…
The Arches Café Bar & Restaurant
253 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G2 8DL
The Arches has long held a reputation for being one of the coolest venues in the city. Its club nights are legendary, its music programme adventurous, its theatre daring and eclectic. Various events and festivals throughout the year, such as Arches…
L'Ariosto
92–94 Mitchell Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3NQ
Named after the Renaissance bard, L'Ariosto has many surprises. Designed to resemble an Italian courtyard and exuding a cosy atmosphere, it still has room to put on dinner dances with a live band five nights a week. It's almost 40 years old, but there's…
Arisaig
140 St Vincent Street,
Glasgow,
G2 5LA
Co-owners Naveed Rashid and Stephen Bonomi have a passion for quality Scottish produce that makes dining at Arisaig a thoroughly satisfying experience. In this attractive dining room, large, almost abstract paintings of foaming oceans and crashing waves…
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…
Arta
The Old Cheesemarket, 62 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1PA
When the smart restaurant within the G1 Group's Arta complex of bars and opened its doors in 2000, the menu was largely Spanish and in keeping with the design of the building (although it's a former cheese market, the interior has been modelled on a…
The Ashoka
108 Elderslie Street,
Glasgow,
G3 7AR
At this independent restaurant (which, despite its name, is not part of the Harlequin chain), lively hen parties and office groups tend to head for the 'curry karaoke' below street level, while the main dining space, branded the Ashoka Flame, offers a…
Ashoka Ashton Lane
19 Ashton Lane,
Glasgow,
G12 8SJ
The Harlequin Group's operation on Ashton Lane is most popular with local students and other people seeking an inexpensive meal before – or after – hitting the cobbled street's busy bars. The restaurant is decorated in shades of orange and brown with a…
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 at the Quay
The Quay, Springfield Quay,
Glasgow,
G5 8NP
Formerly Masala Jak's, this restaurant has taken on the basic branding of the Harlequin Group in the past year or so. The venue has modern décor with an open kitchen and wooden tables, and the opportunity to dine overlooking the Clyde. The competitively…
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…
Ashoka Southside
268 Clarkston Road,
Glasgow,
G44 3EA
This Harlequin Group restaurant has the comfortably modern surroundings, reliable service and familiar favourites of many of its siblings in the chain. Subdued lighting and cosy seating give the dining space a warm, intimate feel that is enhanced by…
Ashoka West End
1284 Argyle Street,
Glasgow,
G3 8AB
Established over 25 years ago, Ashoka West End claims to sit on the corner of the longest street and the shortest road in Glasgow. It is undoubtedly something of a local landmark. Split over two levels, there is a bar and 25 seats at ground level and…
Asia Style
185–189 St George's Road,
Glasgow,
With the subtitle of 'Chinese & Malaysian Restaurant', this unassuming diner-café specialises in spicy deep-fried soft shell crab, Malaysian noodles, rice porridge, roast duck and other meaty main courses, served with little ceremony in simple…
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…
Babbity Bowster
16–18 Blackfriars Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1PE
The Babbity Bowster, with its first-floor Scottische French-influenced restaurant (evenings only) and small hotel, is a landmark in the Merchant City in multiple ways. Its premises occupy a historic building designed by the Adam brothers in the 1790s on…
Baby Grand
3–7 Elmbank Gardens,
Glasgow,
G2 4NQ
This time-honoured Glasgow outpost is tucked away from the main streets but easily found opposite the Charing Cross train station entrance. For a classic bar-brasserie, the place is pretty much perfect – candles flicker on wooden tables, mirrors adorn…
Bacchus
80 Glassford Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1UR
Bacchus, named after the Roman god of wine, is situated in a bit of a bar void between Glasgow's centre and the Merchant City. That's maybe why it draws a mixed crowd, with post-work drinkers midweek giving way to pre-clubbers at weekends, when DJs are…
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.
Balti Club
66 Woodlands Road,
Glasgow,
G3 6HA
Although the Balti Club (known for 22 years as the Fast Food Bar) is essentially a takeaway, it produces food that some of the fancier Indian restaurants in Glasgow would be proud to serve. Its bright lighting, basic white tiles and slightly wobbly…
The Bank
443 Clarkston Road,
Glasgow,
G44 3LL
Housed in an impressively spacious former bank building, this pub and restaurant shows that catering for a wide range of tastes – and keeping standards reasonably high – is possible. Vast brown sofas, long wooden tables and a stained glass dome in the…
Bar Bola
144 Park Road,
Glasgow,
G4 9HB
Gibson Street and the northern, leafy fringes of Kelvingrove Park are on the doorstep of Bar Bola, a quirky venue that straddles the divide between student hangout and local style bar. Despite its idiosyncrasy, this ever-popular destination is often…
Bar Gandolfi
64 Albion Street,
Glasgow,
G1 1NY
Housed in the loft above the much-loved Café Gandolfi, this warm, tiny bar eschews the cuisine and décor of its older sibling in favour of an identity all of its own. Quirky wooden furniture, steel beams and candlelight reflecting off battered cream…
Bar MC
129 Bath Street,
Glasgow,
G2 2SZ
This basement venue in the swish ABode Hotel was formerly known as Michael Caines Café Bar. It was rebranded in October 2007, but not too much has changed: Bar MC incorporates both a family-friendly restaurant (where under fives eat free) and a…
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…
Bar 91
91 Candleriggs,
Glasgow,
G1 1NP
The refurbished Bar 91 has retained its aloof smartness and lack of pretention, with new chunky tables, dark red and oyster walls and a refitted bar stocking beers by West Brewing Company. Light and airy, it has a steady office lunchtime trade that…
Bar Soba
11 Mitchell Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
It may feel at first like a standard city-centre style bar with its muted lighting, studiously minimalist décor and languorous background beats, but Bar Soba's food is more than an afterthought to complement the range of fancy bottled beers. The kitchen…
Bar 10
10 Mitchell Lane,
Glasgow,
G1 3NU
It now shares owners with nearby pub The Lab, and the popularity of Bar 10 shows no sign of abating. While the chrome-trimmed, mirror-clad interior is starting to look a little dated, its good selection of booze and freshly made pub classics means…
Barbarossa
3–5 Clarkston Road,
Glasgow,
G44 4EF
Glowing quotes about this Southside restaurant from The List are scattered throughout Barbarossa's official web site. Alas, during our reviewing period in 2008, the operation – which does rather regularly feature on our Hit List of Italian operations…
Barça Tapas and Cava Bar
Princes Square, 48 Buchanan Street,
Glasgow,
G1 3JN
The flexible tapas format is ideal for Barça's location on the top floor of Princes Square, where a quick, restorative bite and a glass of decent wine can fit into the most demanding shopping or social schedule. Barça delivers the goods with excellent…
Battlefield Rest
55 Battlefield Road,
Glasgow,
G42 9JL
Situated on a large traffic island outside the Victoria Royal Infirmary, this former tram terminus is indeed an odd location for one of the Southside's better restaurants. The building has been a landmark for nearly a century, with a clock tower and…
La Bavarde
19 New Kirk Road,
Glasgow,
G61 3SJ
It's never the easiest thing to takeover a 30-year local favourite. But the team behind Mulberry’s (see Scottish) is spring-cleaning this formerly Franco/Italian-oriented nook of Bearsden Cross to very popular effect with a cheery, rustic-style bistro.
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…
Beanscene
16 Cresswell Lane, West End,
Glasgow,
G12 8AA
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Beanscene
110 Battlefield Road, Battlefield, Southside,
Glasgow,
G42 9JT
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
Beanscene
1365 Argyle Street, West End,
Glasgow,
G3 8AF
Scotland
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…

19 Skirving Street Shawlands, Southside,
Glasgow,
G41 3AB
Scotland
It may be part of a chain, but Scottish café enterprise Beanscene stands out by selectively adopting hallmarks such as consistency and friendly service and rewriting them in its own style. The deep leather couches, scattered tables and down-lighting…
