Drinks & Nightlife

Steps away from the apartment, this is a great place to sit outside with a beer in the summer or lounge about in one of the cosy booths inside. Cheap pub grub, an informal atmosphere and good music.

Love your seafood? Then you'll love the Crabshak. This is a restaurant with a great reputation for it's food and ambiance. It's always busy, which is a good sign. Booking is therefore recommended.

Famous for it's cheap vegan menu and reggae music, this informal bar is relaxed and loungey. It comes to life with a bang on Thursday nights with the arrival of the soundsystem, if you fancy a skank!

Everything Else

One of my favourite haunts for vintage knick-knacks. Norman is the king of shabby chic, always working away transforming lovely bits of old furniture. Tell him you are Lou's guests - he loves to chat!

Just as the name suggests, lots of interesting little knick-knacks to look at in this shop. From artwork to jewellery to ornaments and cards. Great for having a leisurely browse around.

Cute little cafe promoting 'a bygone era where tea and delicate china were a way of life.' It's at the end of a cobbled lane full of artists studios and music rehearsal rooms. Gorgeous in the summer.

It's all happening down at this club at the end of a row of warehouses where music, fashion and art come together in a hip and happening fury! Lots of cool DJ's and club nights -and you can walk home!

It's a gorgeous park with hills and a river running through it. I like to take some nuts and apples to feed the squirrels. The trees are spectacular certain times of the year. Be at one with nature!

Cool little place offering much healthier breakfast options than some of the surrounding cafes. The bagels look amazing. Sit in the window and watch the world go by...

Meat eaters will be in steak heaven at the trendy Porter and Rye. Recommended for their steaks; try the Bavette at £14 including a side and a sauce. Great choice of wines and to-die-for desserts.

Panevino is an authentic Italian place where you can a have a meal or a drink/snack at the bar. The food is delicious and the 'in and out' menu is particularly good value. Evviva!

New kid on the block and already one of my favourites! Great for breakfast/brunch. Gluten free options available. Potions are fairly small but the food is delightfully cooked and nicely presented.

Shopping

Piece comes highly recommended. A 'piece' is an old-fashioned Scottish word for a sandwich. This uber-cool little cafe makes the best sandwiches and salads in Finnieston. The cakes are great too. Yum!

I haven't been to the Hydro yet - Glasgow's newest concert venue - but my guests tell me it's fabulous! It's on the site of the SSEC, our other famous venue, just a short walk from the apartment.
