About Avant Garde

An inviting space with a cool, contemporary décor, Avant Garde is a lively music bar and restaurant on King Street in the Merchant City.

The kitchen delivers a popular mix of bar classics and Mediterranean favourites with a strong Greek and Italian emphasis.

About Babbity Bowster

Babbity Bowster is one of those iconic Glasgow drinking and dining spots that charms anyone lucky enough to stumble upon it.

Tucked away on Blackfriars Street, it is both a small guest house and French-influenced restaurant that showcases seasonal Scottish ingredients.

Inside, you will find a cosy fireplace, restful decor and an overall welcoming feel. Babbity Bowster is actually named after an old Scottish country dance, so it’s fitting that occasional live music events add to the vibe.

About Bunker

About Catch

Opened in early 2015, CATCH calls itself a ‘posh modern day neighbourhood fish and chip shop and restaurant’. The Fenwick Road business is on two levels. On the ground floor, the proudly displayed catch of the day is a talking point for diners in the booth seating. On the mezzanine level, the space is decorated with a nautical theme from old ropes to half a boat which is mounted on the wall. The overall feel is
informal yet smartly turned out. CATCH would work as well for a date as it would for a fish tea with family

About Catch - West End

Bringing the fish supper firmly into the 21st century, this West End venue is the third branch of Catch after the success of its sister outlets in Giffnock and Netherlee. Both a restaurant and a takeaway, inside
it’s all exposed brickwork, banquette seating and cool, post-industrial decor. Offering a much wider menu than your average chippy, diners can choose from classic fish suppers, tacos and burgers. Veggies and vegans are catered for as well, while a bar serving craft beer, wine and fizz adds extra pizazz to the proceedings.

About Gōst

Gōst on Bothwell Street promises delectable prime cuts of beef and expertly grilled fish served with quality wine and cocktails. The restaurant is by the same team behind popular dining spots Glaschu and The Duke’s Umbrella.

According to Executive Chef John Molloy, the aim is to serve dishes that feel familiar but are elevated to a fine dining standard. To this end, Gōst is one of the only restaurants in Scotland offering purebred Angus beef steak from ex-dairy cattle retired onto grass pastures. The result is an incredible depth of flavour.

Inside, the decor is sleek and sophisticated with a focus on elegant simplicity.

About Hope & Vincent

About Mackintosh at the Willow

As well as this, the history exhibition, souvenir shop and tours mean that you can turn your visit into an occasion.

About Porter & Rye

Part of the Finnieston strip of Argyle Street, Porter & Rye is one of the chic and hip restaurants which have been responsible for the area’s burgeoning culinary reputation over the last few years. Intimate and flatteringly dimly lit, it has a stylish decor that is half old school Manhattan steak house and half post-industrial warehouse.

About Rab Ha's

Named after a legendary 19th century Glasgow glutton, Rab Ha’s is a welcoming bar and restaurant with rooms on Hutcheson Street. In the summer of 2017, new owners gave the much-loved Merchant City institution a thoughtful refurbishment. The very opposite of a bland chain, Rab Ha’s is an independent, family-run with business with oodles of character. Visitors can look forward to a cosy and tranquil space with stripped stone walls, an open fire and wood panelling in the bar and restaurant.

About Ralph and Finns

Upmarket brasserie in the city centre
Launched by veteran Glasgow restaurateur Alan Tomkins, Ralph & Finns is a sleek and gleaming 180-seater brasserie & bar on St. Vincent Place. Housed in the former Scottish HQ of the Bank of England, there is a feeling of timeless elegance inside (partly thanks to award-winning designer, Mark Brunjes). Yet playful touches like the parrot wall art show that this dining spot doesn’t take itself too seriously either.

About Table Twenty Eight

TaBle TwentY Eight is an exciting new restaurant in the heart of Merchant City with a contemporary Scottish menu and a delightful range of cocktails.

About The Restaurant- Edinburgh Marriott Hotel Holyrood

Quality steak and seafood in Holyrood

Based in the 4-star Marriott Edinburgh Holyrood, The Restaurant serves up classic ingredients from farm and sea with a twist of fully packed flavouring. Using only the finest in locally sourced meat and fish, the focus is on elegant simplicity. This means that world-renowned Aberdeen Angus beef and hand-dived North Atlantic scallops will both be jostling for your attention on the menu (and, most likely, on your plate as well).

About The Spiritualist

Opened in the spring of 2016, The Spiritualist is a stylish restaurant and bar in the building that once housed Stirling’s Library. Inspired by the Art Deco movement and hung with vintage portraits, the decor is as sleek as it is contemporary. A stunning drinks list features Scottish craft beers; a globe-trotting selection of spirits; a well balanced wine list and many innovative and attractively presented cocktails. A unique Chef’s Table in the kitchen is a real talking point.
