we have a table reserved by opentable. When we arrived there, they told us that the restaurant was closed for the evening and that they had tried to contact us by phone and email (which was obviously not true).

there is a formal restaurant in the upper floor, but we decided to go this time for a more relaxed gastroub experience in the bar. the bar area is located in the cellar of a traditional glassgower mule house and the interior is a classic striped stone and dark wood look that gives it a really cozy Scottish feeling.

we have travelled in the last weeks in the UK and have eaten through a tonne fish and chips. the fish and chips here were wonderful. light and crispy and a fleshy piece of fish. the beef on Sunday evening dinner was also top notch. both were very cheap. the beer selection on tap was good and the staff was very friendly the atmosphere was cozy. with a fire in the fireplace, it is for a cool regeny glassgow evening.

as laughing I decided to go for the Risotto balls, or as I know them, arancini. They were consumed with devastated spinat in hot petersilienbutter. I really enjoyed them! some might complain about the amount of butter, as the risotto was tasty and there was butter on the serving, but I really enjoyed it. without sauce or dip arancini can be a bit dry, but these were nice and damp and had a lot of smoked salmon in them for taste!

An absolute treat. The waiters waitresses are lovely. I had the courgette bhaji with curry mayo roast chicken with all the trimmings. The courgette bhaji was probably one of my favourite starter’s I’ve had in years. Absolutely delicious when I praised it to the waiter he told me they run curry nights every so often (I’m really going to keep my eyes peeled for this as a result). Yum! And the roast chicken was phenomenal. Succulent roast chicken with all the trimmings all cooked perfectly. They have a great variety of cocktails drinks too I’ll most definitely be back for another roast such lovely service. Thank you so much guys! X
