Curler's Rest

If it's pub grub you're after, then the Curler's Rest are sure to have something that takes your fancy. With various menus for evenings, lunchtimes and weekends there's always something tasty on the go. And with comfortable, cosy surroundings, a stack of papers and a pint, this is the perfect spot to fill your belly and have a lazy afternoon. 

Sloans

Forever buzzing and an essential part of the Glasgow community, Sloans is one of its oldest pubs and was established in 1797. Today, it's home to a range of events from quizzes to comedy and Friday Night Ceilidh. Its beer garden is a great place to enjoy a crisp IPA or pint of Guinness paired with some classy snacks, like haggis, neeps and tatties pakora, macaroni sticks and cullen skink. 

Lobo

Lobo captures the essence of Mediterranean dining with a relaxed, rustic interior and a menu built around bold, seasonal small plates perfect for sharing. Drawing on Spanish, Italian, and French influences, each dish is crafted with locally sourced Scottish ingredients and a creative flair.

With a Travellers' Choice Award and a growing fanbase, Lobo is a fresh, soulful addition to Glasgow's South Side dining scene.
