A Glasgow institution. Billed as the longest continual bar in Europe, it serves a wide range of real ales at affordable prices, serves good wholesome food and has a great atmosphere to boot.
One of the best pubs in the west end and most likely the only "old boys" pub. Much better than the gentrified pish up and down Byres road. Cheap pints, decent clientele.
Award-winning real ale and cider pub, with friendly staff and feel-good trad-jazz on Sunday afternoons (free).
Pretty authoritative collection of whiskys. Not a big as the 489 they peaked at (http://thepotstill.co.uk/collection.htm)but they're trying to get back there. Quite a place!

The scones are fantastic. Sit by one of the windows, get a cappuccino (also very tasty), eat a scone, and watch as the world passes by.
Ask for a taster board. Great way to experience the many varieties of beer Brewdog have to offer! Dead Ponies Club a personal favourite.
Good selection of ever changing ales on tap, great bottle selection. Sadly the Bottleneckers are no more but the (equally as good) Shiverin Sheiks have take their place on a Tuesday night.
Great bar and a really nice menu. Costs about £7-10 for mains. Would highly recommend the steak!
Perfect for afternoon tea! Sweet treats include Guinness cake and huge slabs of homemade millionaire shortbread, served on delicate china, so the generous portions still seem quite girlie. Read more.

This is the best independent coffee shop in the city centre, maybe even all of Glasgow.
In 1993, Oasis played a show here, opening for 18 Wheeler, that caught the ear of Creation Records' Alan McGee, who promptly signed them. Alan knew they were going to be big. He was right.
One of the last old-style bookshops left in Scotland, by which I mean; heaving mounds of paperbacks and hardbacks. It's hard to walk out without buying one or two titles you didn't realise you needed.
Glasgow’s flea market, the Barras on Gallowgate, has almost a thousand stalls and people come here just for a wander as much as for shopping, which gives the place a holiday air.
