GO Restaurants In Glasgow

Restaurants in Glasgow From globally-inspired cuisine to the best traditional dishes, when it comes to restaurants Glasgow really does lead the way in Scotland. There’s an eclectic range of venues to eat in across the city and whatever your budget or particular taste you’ll find plenty to appeal.

If you want to push the boat and go for exquisite dining in a luxurious location there’s some fine Michelin-starred restaurants to take advantage of. Glasgow has lots of famous names around and one you can always count on for a slice of exotic cuisine is Malmaison [map]. The brasserie is located in the crypt of the Malmaison Hotel at West George Street. The restaurant has an excellent reputation for offering fabulous French cuisine and there’s plenty of classics on offer as well as some unusual fusion food. Soak up the dark and luxurious surroundings and dine by candlelight.

Perhaps you’d like the opportunity to dress up and dine in decadence, if so head to Supper Club [map], Albion Street, Merchant Square, which is a luxurious restaurant recreating the supper clubs of the 1930s and 40s. It is advisable to book at least a week in advance as the club is extremely popular. The dress code encourages diners to wear their very best evening-wear and the scene is set for the evening with the help of deep plush carpets, soft backed chairs, and a baby grand piano from which the strains of Frank Sinatra and Nina Simone softly float into the evening air.

Take a break from a day of shopping and enjoy one of Glasgow’s best sandwich bars or coffee shops. Go for some real Scottish charm to accompany your BLT and head to Babbity Bowster, Blackfriars Street, Merchant City [map], which is a particular favourite for brunch. Hidden away in a haven of greenery and offering al fresco dining, the bar even has its own ale called Babbity Thistle Ale which is well worth a taste.

It’s not only Scottish cuisine that is in plentiful supply in Glasgow, there’s hundreds of restaurants offering something a little different. Media types and businesspeople love to head to Fusion [map], Byres Road, which is one of Glasgow’s most fashionable sushi restaurants. Sit at the bar and watch the chef create his magic as he cooks up dishes ranging from soup and noodles to tempura dishes and mixed sushi. There’s also some traditional Japanese desserts on offer. If you’re going with a group of friends book one of the taster plates so that you can try bits and pieces of more than 18 different dishes.

Don’t worry if this all sounds a bit too expensive for your budget, we’ve also put together a guide for those who want to make their money stretch during their visit to Glasgow.
