Rum Bongo

If you're looking for a laid-back spot with great food, strong drinks, and a bit of fun, Rum Bongo on Byres Road is worth checking out. This Caribbean-inspired bar and restaurant brings a tropical vibe to Glasgow’s West End, serving up a mix of Caribbean and American flavors. Whether you're in the mood for some perfectly spiced jerk chicken or a stacked Big Kahuna burger, there’s plenty on the menu to keep things interesting.

It’s more than just food, though. Inside, you’ll find a pool table, foosball, darts, and even an arcade machine and an automatic mahjong table. There’s always something happening, from the Tuesday smartphone quiz to Thursday rum and tequila tastings. Fridays bring live music, and Sundays are for the "Dug Club," where you get a discount just for bringing your four-legged pal along.
