It's (usually) pub-food, and quite good versions at that - the fish in the fish 'n chips is delicately crusted and doesn't leave you greasy, the curry is *very* good (not the rice or naan tho'), the sandwiches and burgers are just plain good, and the desserts are off the charts (though spectacularly likely to give you insulin-shock!) There is a separate area where you go to get drinks near the front of the resto - with a good selection of beers/ales. Do note that the reso is indoors - if a view is what you're looking for, this isn't it...

The Beacon is one of the newer venues on the scene.

It has a 500-seat main auditorium and a studio space and boasts stage facilities that quite a few main-scale theatres would be envious of. In fact, it's a shame that the main house only seats 500, as the stage is large enough to accommodate some fairly large gigs that would attract a large audience. The cafe/restaurant out front serves a very high standard of pre-theatre nosh too and offers great views over the Clyde. A nice place to sit with a coffee and gaze at the scenery.

I was given these tickets as part of my Christmas gift, and I was really excited that the night was finally here. The venue itself is set on the water, and in between various older buildings, so it kinda sticks out with it's modern feel to it, but it's still quite nice. We walked in and immediately to the right is their bistro which is a great place to come to for a meal during the day or for dinner and drinks at night. If we're ever back in the area, I'd like to stop in for a meal as there were a lot of great options to choose from on their menu and it smelled heavenly. There is a pretty big entry way where people can hang out during intermissions or before the shows. The toilets were bright and clean and easy to get to. The inside of the venue is great and we had really great seats. Four rows from the stage, dead centre. The only thing that was tough (and completely my fault) was needing to use to the toilet (too many pre-show drinks, ha!) during one of the opening shows. Being in the centre of the row of seats made for interrupting a bunch of people who didn't seem too thrilled about it. I was able to sit in a different row when I got back, for a few songs until the bad was done playing so I kept from interrupting any more people. All in all, the acoustics were great and the overall feeling of the venue was wonderful. Loads of seats and nice staff members to help you get to your seats. I would definitely come back for another show if we were to get tickets again.

This charmingly classic Irish Pub/restaurant serves up great food, accompanied by fast; friendly and cheerful service. Truly a "find," when you're in Oban. They have an extensive beer/wine list; and the scotch's circle the bar overhead. My husband had two different Oban scotch; I stuck with a nice Cab. Their specials were sea bass and Langoustine cocktail, both of which our dining partners said were terrific. I had an appetizer portion of mussels, which were served with GF toast. The broth was creamy and garlicky, and lovely to sop up with the toast. My husband had the steak and ale pie, and was in heaven, I wish I had tried the mackerel pate! Our server, Arran, was delightfully warm; helpful; and sweet.... Absolutely darling. He let us know music was about to start just after we arrived - an older Scotsman playing familiar tunes on an accordion -- and that just made the whole experience better!

Don't despair, they turn the sign around so that it reads, "please wait to be seated". So if you don't arrive early you can hang around and wait until someone leaves and then you can arrive in confidence. The selections are traditional Scottish fare and well made. My roast beef was a little tough but tasty nonetheless. My guests had the fish and chips and they really enjoyed their dishes except for the peas. However, the peas only played a supporting role on their plates. The Crofter is very popular and the atmosphere is fun. Come for a pint or a meal.

A Hidden Gem on Ashton Lane…read more Located on the fabulous and trendy Ashton Lane, this place is anything but typical. From the moment you step in, you can tell you're in for something special. The atmosphere is gorgeous -- a bright glass ceiling, lush plants all around, and a rustic stone floor that creates the perfect mix of romantic and relaxed. It feels ideal for a date night but also welcoming for families and friends. The food here is definitely on the high-end side, and while the portions are small for the price, what you're really paying for is excellence. Every bite showcases the chefs' skill, creativity, and attention to detail. The quality and flavor are absolutely superb -- the kind of dining experience you simply won't find anywhere else. We ordered the Pigeon Breast, Bramble, Chicory, Walnut , the Tenderstem Broccoli and the Organic Arran Leaf & Herb Salad with Mustard Vinaigrette, and both dishes completely blew us away. The flavor combinations were thoughtful, unique, and perfectly balanced. This is one of those special spots worth treating yourself to at least once. Whether it's a romantic evening or a celebration with friends, it's an unforgettable dining experience on one of Glasgow's most charming lanes.

I guess, what I'm trying to say is... Hug & Pint, I love you. I've only visited once. It was brief, and I barely sampled your wares. But my gosh, I love you and I am going to keep on coming back for more until you bar me from coming back. I'd never been to the Roxy 171 (oops) but I had been to the Liquid Ship and the layout of the Hug & Pint seems to be similar. Stairs up to the bar area and a nice, relaxed vibe. We got a couple of drinks at the bar and took a seat. It has a cosy vibe without seeming small, and the smell from the kitchen was incredible. I wasn't eating (sadly) but I am going back ASAP for the Asian-inspired vegan menu. There's aubergine on it. Need I say more?! Well, I will. The drinks selection is really good - Thistly Cross cider, Blue Moon, Brooklyn, Innis & Gunn. There's wine, spirits, Aperol and Sam Smith's organic fruit beer. Pretty much what I'm trying to say is that I think the Hug & Pint is perfect. I need to go back for more visits and to try the food, so maybe I'll lose the rose-tinted glasses. But for now, it's a 5-star first-visit love affair. Swoon.

I even admit to cheating on Sub Crawls to head here instead of the closer Dolphin. It's one of the best, if not THE best real ale pubs in the city - it has an ever revolving array of guest ales, as well as a damn fine selection of regular ones. They offer 2 pint takeaway cartons, which may be the single greatest thing in a pub anywhere! The decor is best described as traditional and authentic, and it's always, ALWAYS busy. Here's a wee list: You Won't: - Be able to get served in less than 5 minutes from enterting - Find a table at first glance - Be able to swing a cat On the plus side, You Will: - Have a great pint, expertly pulled or poured. - Be able to ask the staff for advice on each ale on tap - Soak up the amazing atmosphere - Be able to look at the magic wee Glasgow tenement decoration on the wall with proper lights in it and everything - want to come back again and again and again.

The Three Judges on Dumbarton road is a place that I have always been interested in going to but have never actually made it through the front door. On Saturday over 1/2 way through the crawl I finally entered and was very pleasantly surprised. It is a large place with loads of tables and a long bar. It looks very traditional in terms of style, but I would not call it an "old mans" pub in the normal sense. It is actually is pretty modern in some ways in terms of the various beers it has on offer. I went with one that I have had many times before (Sierra Nevada - bottle) and as always it was excellent. I think in the future I will venture back to try some of the many draught options that they have in stock. Interesting pub, great variety of beers options and well worth a look. 4 stars.
