Restaurant / bar recommendations, Glasgow PLEASE!?

Question

I'm going out for late lunch and then drinks with a friend, on Saturday, in Glasgow. Im in my 40s and so is my friend, but we're not fogeys! I have limited mobility, so Im looking for somewhere nice to eat, and then somewhere for drinks and convo later. I wouldn't mind a pub if it has good food and no loud music, want to be able to hear to chat. Otherwise a restaurant with a bar area for after lunch, or a restaurant with a relaxed bar nearby. Basically Id like somewhere that won't be packed to the rafters and no blaring music. Does such a place exist? THANKYOU if you can help!

ps. Glasgow city centre or west of the city as far as clydebank would be fine.

Answer 1

definitley the merchant city. great steak house called sizzlers also spanish, italian etc. easy access as well with a few pubs where you can drink to the wee small hours

Answer 2

hi,

sorry I knwo this isn't exactly what you wanted but here is an anti-recommendation.

Avoid The Social, I went to Glasgow recently and ate there and the food was horrible with slow service and watery cocktails.

Answer 3

one of my favourite restaurants in glasgow is the city merchant. which funnily enough is in the merchant city . a 5 min walk from george square. the food is gorgeous and it is a very relaxed atmosphere plus its in the heart of the merchant city where there are plenty of bars around to cater for all tastes.

Answer 4

I agree with the gorgeous girl above me. City Merchant is amazing.

Answer 5

Bar Gandolfi is excellent - http://www.cafegandolfi.com/

I would also recommend Waxy O'Connors - http://www.waxyoconnors.co.uk/glasgow/me...

Tiger Tiger is also very nice - http://www.tigertiger-glasgow.co.uk/menu...

Arta and The Corinthain too - http://www.g1group.co.uk/content/default...

Hope you and your friend find somewhere suitable and have a great time!
