    I've been to the Hug & Pint a couple times now and so grateful this spot exists. The food is all…read morevegetarian, with many vegan options. They also have an ample and strong selection of drinks. The atmosphere inside is very relaxed--a lot of people coming in to meet up with friends for drinks, conversation, and good times. Of course, when there is a show going on this changes a bit--more energy and ambient noise (which is fine.) The service has also been good both times I've been. I was promptly attended to and food came out quick. Looking forward to my next visit!

    When you're young, you tend to fall in love quickly. Whether it's love at first sight, maybe on the…read morefirst date or within a week, it could be kind of creepy for the other person in the equation if they don't feel the same way. I guess, what I'm trying to say is... Hug & Pint, I love you. I've only visited once. It was brief, and I barely sampled your wares. But my gosh, I love you and I am going to keep on coming back for more until you bar me from coming back. I'd never been to the Roxy 171 (oops) but I had been to the Liquid Ship and the layout of the Hug & Pint seems to be similar. Stairs up to the bar area and a nice, relaxed vibe. We got a couple of drinks at the bar and took a seat. It has a cosy vibe without seeming small, and the smell from the kitchen was incredible. I wasn't eating (sadly) but I am going back ASAP for the Asian-inspired vegan menu. There's aubergine on it. Need I say more?! Well, I will. The drinks selection is really good - Thistly Cross cider, Blue Moon, Brooklyn, Innis & Gunn. There's wine, spirits, Aperol and Sam Smith's organic fruit beer. Pretty much what I'm trying to say is that I think the Hug & Pint is perfect. I need to go back for more visits and to try the food, so maybe I'll lose the rose-tinted glasses. But for now, it's a 5-star first-visit love affair. Swoon.

    The Old Hairdressers - Nice spot for wine & reading

    Running away to become Vikings was the title therefore we arrived with Viking horned helmets and…read moreready for a run. The Old Hairdressers was to be the venue of choice of my friends who are leaving the country to become Vikings well heading to the Scandavian lands. As we entered, the mezzanine was reserved for our pleasure and to enjoy our private wee party. This is the sister venue of Stereo located across the lane but the more I was looking around this place, really it is more like 'heroin chic'. This must be the poorer sister. The walls still showed concrete, plaster and wires, it just looks like they ran out of money and couldn't finish. Some people had added drawings to brighten it up. After staring at one for a while and couldn't figure out what it was, we realised it was builders measurements for something. Doh! The place is very hipster and the music was em... yeah, some kind of electronic instruments clashing. Who knows?! When many people where coming through our mezzanine level we wondered what lay beyond the door. You can't help but have a wee nosey. We discovered toilets and another room for a venue for gigs. It's like a wee tardis this place, I tell thee. They have a no bad selection with local brewers Williams Brothers a-go-go and some tasty fruit ciders available, which they ran out of quickly. Boo! It was a good space for our party, although the music wasn't to our taste, lots of hipsters and running out of fancy fruity cider, it still was a good experience.

    A flying visit. Popped in quickly before I was due to meet someone for a drink. Now we had intended…read moreto stay here for the drink but quickly after arriving I noted that thangs were going on. Turns out they were setting up for a charity night of some sorts. On any other night I'd have been up for that, but this meeting required chatting and music/talking people in the background was just not an option.... waffle waffle So the place! Well, it's rough, ready, basic... but cool. Limited selection of booze, but at a quick glance it's decent enough with two Williams Bros beers showing up as the stand out options. It's not a massive place with a limited ground level (tiny bar) and a small upstairs mezzanine. Now, this is not a negative comment. In relation to Stereo it's tiny, but somewhere like the Pot Still is somewhat comparble in space and format... but certainly not style! Is it a hipster den? Aye, most likely but to be fair, I can mostly be found donning waistcoats and carrying a vintage satchel these days, so the words kettle, pot, calling and black kind of spring to mind. It needs a return visit, but I shall be doing so!

    'Let's go to the pub, let's go to the pub, let's go to the pub'…read more It's a phrase I respond positively to. After a wee band practice down the road at Creation Studios, I was enticed to go here. It was really busy. Pricy at the bar, as has been mentioned elsewhere, but I was on the soft stuff after band practice, really thirsty. Quite a nice warm interior, really trendy, with a good mix of people in there. They have a promiment advertisement for a 2 course lunch just now priced at £6.95 which I might consider, going during the day when it's presumably nowhere near as busy. A popular place with alot of stuff coming up including live music that I might or might not go to if money allows. A nice place.

    This self-styled indie/rock bar is a relative newcomer to Trongate, and hopefully a sign of the…read moreregeneration here. We dropped by one Tuesday night and ordered a double Southern Comfort and coke and a bottle of Kopparberg. This came to £9.10, which was waaaay more than we had expected. We took a seat in front of the giant football screen to recover from the shock. Up to the minute rock music plays in here, at a comfortable level to talk over. On nice afternoons, the big windows slide open to let the air circulate and provide a nice atmosphere, linking the indoor seating to the outdoor. Live bands play on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. The cocktail menu is quite extensive and cocktails are named after rock classics like Purple Haze and Desperado (gotta love The Eagles!!) At £5.95 for the least expensive though, they don't come cheap. The stripped floorboards and warehouse setting further lend to the rocky atmosphere. A small selection of bar bites is available, most intriguingly the "Good Olives" at £1.95 and the "Even Better Olives" also priced at £1.95. Hmmm...what?
