Embrace the rhythm of Latin America at Boteco Do Brasil, Glasgow's favourite Brazilian bar in Merchant City. With a soundtrack of reggaeton, Latin dance, and Afrobeat, this place is the perfect spot to party the night away.
From live music to salsa nights and match day celebrations, the vibe is always buzzing. Don't miss out on their delicious Brazilian staples like feijoada and moqueca, and sip on creative cocktails like the reggae rum punch or a Brazilian Scotsman.
Taking Bookings
Home to one of the best nights out in Glasgow, this Bath Street haunt houses numerous bars, VIP booths, a restaurant and club over four floors in a renovated townhouse. From the Posh Room to the Glitter Room and the Penthouse, there's plenty of private rooms to choose from; all as pretty as the cocktails on offer.
Get cosy in your own leather banquette and admire the charming bar at this West End boozer. Formerly home to a Victorian ice-cream parlour, this is one of the most stylish restaurant bars in Glasgow. Expect hearty dishes, beer on draught and cocktails made with hand-cut ice.
Fancy your drinks with a gorgeous view? Look no further than Red Sky Bar; the rooftop venue offering stunning sights and creative concoctions. Expect floor-to-ceiling windows, a contemporary bar and DJs come the weekend.
Champagne may be the name of the game, but this city centre favourite is serving a whole lot more than just fizz. From booze-fuelled afternoon tea to seasonal cocktails and a variety of platters, small plates and sweet treats, you'll be fed and watered here.
From the team that brought you Chinaskis and The Berkeley Suite comes this Mitchell Lane watering hole. Intimate seating, neon signage and low-lighting make Tabac the ideal place for after-work drinks, date nights and hanging out with mates... especially with tacos and cocktails on the menu.
A hotel bar with a whole lot of charm, Blythswood Square is one of the best places to drink in Glasgow. Not only can you soak up afternoon tea in The Salon, top-notch dining in the restaurant, but the bar offers everything from classic cocktails to fine wines.
