Look. I'm American. I love a good beer and wings. And this place has it. I also love a good brewery. And you know, this place does that too. Had the amber and it was delightful. read more

Known for their craft beer, this review is about their food, as I rate beers on ratebeer.com. Their menu is 50% plant-based, so we tried out a bunch of their vegan options and were very happy with them. We stopped for some beers and dinner one evening, ordered a flight, and a bunch of food items to share. Between the two of us, we got the Temple of Seitan wings (small size; £9), the Beyond Meat burger (£13.75), and the feta & avo bowl (£11.45) with the feta removed, and tindle (£4.50; a vegan chicken) added. -The wings were extremely rich, coated with an intense buffalo sauce and served with mayo as though you'd need more sauce. This was a bit too intense for me, but my wife loved them. The seitan texture was definitely excellent though. 3.5/5 -The Beyond Meat burger was honestly one of the better Beyond burgers I've had in some time. This burger comes with roasted yellow peppers, vegan cheese, and some pickles. Really tasty, but overpriced (almost £14 for just a burger??). 4/5 -The avo bowl + tindle was quite nice. You get a bed a romaine mostly, with avocado, tomatoes, smoked almonds, and a honey mustard dressing, plus a generous portion of the tindle that I added on. The salad was a bit overdressed, so I'd order the dressing on the side next time. But overall, this was very nice and a generous portion. 4/5 All in all, great service, beers, and vegan food options. I'd definitely eat at Brewdog again. read more

I found myself in here after the bouncer encouraged us to go in. A little unusual but hey, you don't mess with the bouncers, so the Yelp crew headed in. We were a little hesitant about going in as it was super mobbed, after all it was a Saturday night. I have been here before and thought it was ok. I have to agree with Steven B. that it is more for the beer drinkers. I don't like beer but I do really enjoy a fruit beer. I thought I might be in luck but alas they don't serve any. Le sigh! They fortunately they have spirits so ordered a vodka and coke, wow, jings and good grief come to mind. It was really pretty rank, to be honest. It tastied of cheap, flat, gone off cola. Oooft it was nasty! I thought I had the wrong spirit at first but it was indeed a vodka. I asked what coke they used but I didn't hear the bar girl too well, as it was so noisy. I did see a bottle of that Curiosity Cola in the fridge and I wondered if it was that. Of course I didn't waste the drink, downed it and changed to a cranberry juice and vodka instead, which tasted much better. It was a jumping atmosphere and they had a young girl DJ-ing with some quite good old fashioned hits beating out. We eventually managed to get a couch and we were entertained by the local sheepdog (the real brewdog) that comes in with it's old man owner. I saw it the last time I was in, it's very friendly and gets round to see everyone in the bar. It's a nice bar, I like the decor, I like its location and I like the idea of it. I would like to come back as I want to try the food. It's just not for me on the drinks side, I've even tried the deadly penguin drink which I believe is tactical and nuclear. Ooooooft man! That's real nasty! read more

Good doggy. I've been waiting for this place to open for a long time now. Kinda like a doggy awaiting their owners to come home, I've been dismayed at the time spent waiting for them to open the doors, give me a pat on the head (scratch behind the ear... ooh, yeah, that's the spot) and pour me a splendid pint of uber beer into my wee doggy bowl. Well folks, the owners are home. I've been a good puppy and they've responded in kind. With a warehouse/industrial type decor that never at any time feels cold or un-cosy, Brewdog Glasgow is welcoming, bright and funky all at the same time. Unlike other reviews so far, I waited until the 'woooooooooaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhaaaaaaarrrrrrgggggghhhhh' of the opening fortnight had passed over before i ventured into the 'Dug'. Clever boy. So, if you're familiar with these guys then you'll recognise all your old favorites on offer as well as a few cheeky guest ales from similarly funky breweries. Had me a Wipeout I.P.A from Port Brewing which was recommended to me by the dude behind the bar. He asked what I was after. I told him I'd been locked in the back seat of a car with the windows rolled up and was really hot. He suggested this stuff. I wagged tail and drank it. Word. Being a little early for the U.Y.E I also had a few mins to grab some grub which turned out to be a fine move. They have a fairly limited menu in comparison to other places, however after chowing down on a cheese burger with chorizo and onion marmalade, it appears that food has certainly not been an afterthought when the BD guys where putting together the plan for this place. Aye ok, it's £4.50 just for the burger, but woooft, if it's not a right crackin' burger. Honestly, the burger and pint combo had me waggling tail, rolling over and other dog related things. Final word? This is a pub. This is a proper pub. Yeah it's a little more expensive a round than you'd pay elsewhere, but in truth the sheer quality of the product makes the extra 50p on a pint look cheap and not even worth consideration. I'm in. I'm on it. i'm sleeping at the bottom of the bed. read more

BrewDog Glasgow - Man happy... Ug. - Bars Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

Brewdog has staked its claim in Glasgow. They have chosen a location that has been the death knell for their predecessors. In between the Argyle Street Hordes and the Byres Road Big Boys, it is often tough to get folks to move to this Museum middle ground. But Brewdog takes on these tough locations and makes them work. So this is another instalment in the boys from the north taking over. What can you expect when you walk into this place? Exposed brick industrial decor, reasonable seating and a selection of board games for your crowd to enjoy. Check out the amazing floor - the Brewdog guys discovered this little treasure when they started the construction. When I showed up it was full with every seat taken and loads of folks standing around. I have not seen a scene like this since the opening of Chinaskis. Obviously people have decided to step out and try the newcomer. The beers if you not tried them before are not your regular lagers and ales. Brewdog take the regular beer taste and explode the elements. Hops come screaming out of their heavily hopped ales and their 77 lager rewrites the book for this category. I am expecting a load of brewers trying to copy this style. I did not try the food but here the focus is on the beer. Loads of bottled imports that reflect the Brewdog attitude to brewing behind the bar. So if you find yourself at the ends of Byres or Argyle, then check it out. read more

I'm a fan of this fine establishment, but it has to be said - a lot of people in here are here because they want to be seen in here, not because they're a fan of the locally brewed wares! I heard three or four people wondering if they would get shot for asking for a bottle of Becks... now, I'm not sure those brands are for sale, or even welcome, but I'm pretty sure shooting isn't on the agenda (maybe if you asked for Tennents? I dunno) It's always, always busy when I've been in here. One day, I'll get a seat and not have to keep moving out of the way of people heading to and from the bar. Not the fault of the bar, though - being busy is a good thing, right? There's a great view of the galleries across the road - I believe you become 0.5% more cultural for every pint you have in the shadow of a museum - and there's even some tables outside for that wonderous time of year when it's not snowing. I may or may not be attempting to have one of every draft pint they have on tap as well, but that's another story for another day. Give it a go. It's worth the walk. read more

How great is this place? We've walked by numerous times with thoughts of stopping in, especially for their BBQ, but had yet to, until last night. A group of our friends were bar hopping in celebration of Easter (why not, right?) and were here when we got back in to town from being away. They had a large booth, so my guy and I stood where they were sitting, which was fine by me. There was a wee dog bowl of water near my feet, which I kept kicking- luckily not spilling any. They only have one cider to order, which is fine by me, seeing as Brew Dog is known for their many many many local beers. Our friends went to town sampling all the delights on offer and even got my guy to try a cherry beer (I can't remember the name of it)- which does not taste a bit like beer. It tastes like Haribo!! If you know my guy, you know he will not even put his tongue to a beer, so this was a huge moment! Ha! Anyway, the place has a great vibe and smells like delicious BBQ. One of our friends ordered the peanutbutter ice cream sandwich that was on offer. He offered some to me, which I gladly tried. The peanut butter ice cream is a dream, seriously, you must try this! We didn't order food, but vowed to be back ASAP for their lunch deal. I had to refrain from sampling the many trays of beef and mac and cheese that continually walked by us. (I'm not a weird who would actually touch another persons food- but gee, it looked amazing!!) Their little beer shop is great as well. I fully plan on taking some random beers home to my brother when we go to visit. He'll be so excited!! This is a great place! They even have women's products in each toilet stall, which was a nice touch! I can't wait to get back here! read more

I kept hearing about BrewDog and well, I didn't come soon enough! Now I can't get enough! Obviously the beers are outstanding...It is BrewDog we are talking about here! To top it off the food is outstanding. They really know how to cook a burger. It is juicy like a burger should be, instead of a dry brittle overcooked crumbly rock. The toppings on the burger are wonderful too! Smoked cheddar, camelized onions, BACON, crispy onion rings, blue cheese, peppers, apples...the sky is the limit, but the concoctions are incredible! The fries are good, though I am not a big fan of paprika. Also, I keep hearing about their amazing hotdogs, but I have a hard time passing up the burgers! I will be sure to update this once I finally sink my teeth into one of the dogs! The music at BrewDog is always great, and the vibe is fabulous whether packed or mellow. My bartenders and servers have always been nice and informative, and have no qualms about letting you taste every beer on tap! But, warning, that may make your beer-selection-decision more challenging because you will want a few of them. read more

BrewDog Glasgow - Yum! - Bars Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

FANTASTIC beer bar in Glasgow! My husband and I were visiting from Chicago and when we found out that there was a craft brewery/bar we knew we had to visit. Living in the states we have no shortage of craft breweries/beers to choose from, especially in the city of Chicago, and that's good...because we love good beer! We had tried a BrewDog beer once before while visiting Amsterdam (a collab w/ Three Floyds, a Chicago-based brewer!) so we knew at least one of their beers was awesome, and we were very pleasantly surprised to find that the rest of their beers that we tried in Glasgow were awesome as well! Along with great beers, the location of BrewDog Glasgow can't be beat. It is right across the street from the Kelvingrove Gallery so the views looking out the their giant windows are picture perfect. Great vibe as well complete with an old school tabletop arcade game, board games, friendly bartenders, and dogs! I love dogs in bars :) BrewDog is definitely a winner here in Glasgow! read more

BrewDog Glasgow sports the same industrial aesthetic common to all of the company's bars, which at first seems a little unwelcoming but actually works well as part of the carefully crafted BrewDog experience. From the punning names for their brews to the well-educated and friendly bar staff, who'll happily advise on what to order and provide you with samples, it is clear that these guys really care about their beer. Each table sports information on their brewing process and guides to beer appreciation. You can also sign-up for tasting classes held regularly at the bar. In terms of the beer itself there's always a great selection of the brewery's own output on tap as well as a few guest beers you're unlikely to get elsewhere. An excellent selection of beers from around the world are also available although be careful and check the price before ordering! The food is good too, with a simple menu of burgers and pizzas on offer. I had an American Psycow, served with tortilla chips and salsa, which was delicious and at £5 very reasonable. My only criticisms would be about the limited selection of soft drinks available and that it can be a little noisy at times, especially if there's live music on. If it was possible I would give BrewDog 4.5 stars as it's achingly close to perfect for a beer lover such as myself. read more

OK so you need to know a few things about BrewDog that has been missed from other reviews... as for what everyone else says about the price, staff, beers etc. I broadly agree so won't go into too much detail there. -BrewDog did NOT start the "craft beer revolution" - there were many breweries in the UK (the whole movement started in the USA a few decades previous) that offered "craft beer" products before BrewDog, including Thornbridge. -BrewDog used to make beers in cask (real ale) and not keg. They did this because cask was the best form of dispense for most of their beers (Punk IPA included) and because it was widely available. They moved into keg as it has a longer shelf life, can be served much colder thus attract lager drinkers, is consistent (although I would argue consistently not as good as cask can be) and can be served at a high premium - something real ale drinkers on the whole wouldn't stand for. -BrewDog were/are very much based on gimmicks, such as the "strongest beer in the world" battle they had with a German brewery. This seems to go against the hipster fad for "real stuff" but the demographic of BrewDog fans has certainly changed over the years... initially loved by appreciators of good beer, a lot of these people have been put off by their antics and BrewDog now is very much selling itself as a trendy, hispter company. This needs no more proof that their Shoreditch pub being their new flagship bar and taking in twice as much as any other bar! These are some facts about the BrewDog company - of which I am a shareholder - for discussion at the bar itself, which is a great place although I don't find myself spending as long as I used to in there any more due to the high prices and shrinking guest beer range. read more

So I've changed my mind.... That's allowed ain't it? Most things have not changed, the pub is still a decent place for a pint. The staff still helpfully let you try samples of beers you ain't tasted before. They do nice looking burgers and they even let your dug in to share a beer with you. So why the updated review? I've had a change of heart. I now love the beer. Yes I know it's not really small local brewing and they have the same bars everywhere, but I just love punk ipa, dead pony club and jackhammer. I can't help it. The beer tastes good and to be honest it has started to be my brand of choice, so when sitting in the bar in Saturday I realised my previous review was unfair or perhaps just out of date. Brewdog deserves five stars it's a nice place to have great pint and if your new to the brand you will actually find the place a bit quirky and unusual. (It's not, they are everywhere now, but that don't stop their beer being awesome) read more

Yelp describes a 5 star place as "Woohoo! As good as it gets!", well they certainly nailed it with BrewDog's Glasgow bar. From the outside the bar itself appears almost unassuming to those not already indoctrinated into the Cult of Punk, but what it lacks in flashy exterior it more than makes up for in warm, "West End-y" interior. Stripped wood tables and steal bar stools, booths and couches and a long bar with dozens of beers on offer tell the whole story of what it is BrewDog do. Unlike the Camden bar I reviewed last, the Glasgow bar has far more of a feeling of a purpose built temple to the craft beer revolution, rather than a converted old-man's pub. Situated perfectly for access to Kelvingrove Art Galleries across the road and perilously close the Kelvin Hall's gym facilities (many a good workout have no doubt been nullified in here) the bar is off the beaten track, neither falling on the bustling Byres Road nor on the newly minted urban hub of Finnieston. This visit I had a few new beers and a few favourites; JackHammer IPA, Hardcore IPA, ThisIsLager, Dogma, and Bounty-Hunter (the EFP exclusive of the day). All were exceptional, all were drinkable, though my advice with the Dogma is not to try to make a night of it (sore head anyone?) The bar wasn't overly busy this visit so we got chatting to the barman who made recommendations and talked about Equity for Punks while we sipped his latest draught. As the bar filled up with displaced tourists from the closed Gallery across the road and the early evening traffic of people on their way home from work, you could really see the broad appeal of these beers. The burgers looked amazing, we didn't have one but the guy eating beside us appeared to be having vinegar strokes over the taste. Overall it's a must in the West End. read more

I. LOVE. BREWDOG. It's been on my list for yonks but for some reason I never made it until just now. So, Saturday 6pm it was HEAVING! But there were loads of staff on so queues at the bar moved quickly. By 9, it was still busy but had quitened quite a bit. Music was great too, and not overbearingly loud. BrewDog's own Punk IPA is super and might just be my new favourite beer.. I also had the best burger I've had in years (possibly ever!). It's called the 'Up And ATOM'. Basically, it's a really spicy cheese burger - but was so juicy and gherkinny and salady and really spicy. I actually made a kind of 'mmmmmurghummmph!' noise at the first bite. The cajun fries were great too - crispy with a little paprika-ish kick. And we only had to wait 10mins for it :) I want another burger and Punk IPA. Now. The memory is haunting me..... read more

Handily BrewDog is just round the corner from where I live, so we pop in now and then, mostly on Fridays after a particularly grim week. It cheers me right up I can tell you. OK, so it's a WEE bit gimmicky perhaps, but it's also fun. Anyone that sends the Kremlin a crate of beer with pink labels featuring Vlad Putin himself is OK in my book. Plus, I like the actual pub in Yorkhill. It's got a cracking view of the Kelvingrove Art Galleries, and the staff are great. Plus there's generally a dog or two, which is just nice. And it's very handy for Mother India and Banana Leaf should you get peckish/too drunk to cook after a few beers. Our most recent visit here was Hogmanany. I started with a chocolate beer. It was a dark stout, and actually did taste of chocolate. It was also super strong - 10.something %, so I just had a 3rd pint. It was delicious. I then had a Mulled Dogma - which was some sort of beer (sorry, the details are a little hazy), Kraken Rum, and various mulling spices. It was delicious! Oh I would have one of them every day! I love all things mulled, and this was particularly good. The other half had a beer cocktail. Yup, that was a new one on me. It had beer (sorry, non specific again), blue bols, pineapple juice, and something else. I had my doubts, but these guys know what they're doing - it was really tasty and refreshing. If you've never had a beer cocktail, I would definitely recommend it. Also, I love that I can have a vegan nibble in here - the 'You're Having a Falafel' falafel hotdog. And the chips come in a pint glass. read more

Prices are high. My burger was over cooked, fries were soggy and only breeding beers available.

Designated drivers should love this bar. Four words: lemon, lime and bitters. This is a famous Australian drink that for some reason hasn't really caught on in the UK. Thankfully they sell it by the bottle at BrewDog. You should give it a go next time you visit - even between pints for a refreshing change from beer. We're planning a return visit to sample the food as the burgers last night looked pretty delectable! read more

I visited the BrewDog bar a couple of times last year, but then didn't go for ages and ages, which is weird considering I've been living 5 minutes for a while now! Anyway, I went again the other day with my mum, for some beer and grub. I'm a big fan of BrewDog's beers, and I tend to have the Punk IPA quite a lot of the time whenever I'm at the pub. Since their own bar has a much larger selection, I branched out this time and had the 5AM Saint (which I've had before) and the Vagabond, both of which were really tasty. I'm far from being a beer connoisseur, but I love the hoppy, flavourful beers that BrewDog do. Most (but not all!) of their beers are vegan, which is fantastic. As for the food, it was fantastic. I had the vegan burger, which is a seitan steak with tomato chutney, crispy kale and hummus, and it was amazing. They also have a veggie dog that can be made vegan, which is a tofu dog with avocado hummus, broccoli, carrot and scallion. I definitely want to go back to try it! The menu has changed a bit since last year, so I'm not sure if the veggie melt is the same as the veggie burger I had way back then. Anyhow, I did have a veggie haggis burger sometime last summer (when I wasn't vegan), which I remember being really nice. They also have meaty options, so it's a great place for everyone! The service has always been really good when I've been there, with friendly and knowledgeable servers. This time I had a nice chat with one of them about veganism! The interior is very hipster, industrial, laidback and relaxed. The high chairs aren't the most comfortable, so grab a normal table if you can! Apparently it does get quite busy at times, but I've never been there on a weekend night, so I'm not sure. read more

ALERT! ALERT! Bias review coming up. I know business aren't allowed to review themselves, but does it count when your a shareholder??? ;) So that might give you an idea of how much I heart this place. Everything from the gorgeous view of Kelvingrove Art Gallery, to the cosy booths (not a fan of the science class chairs, though they're a bit better now your butt has a bit of cushioning between it and the wooden seat), the sexual burgers, the tantalising paprika fries, the friendly, pure dead beer savvy staff, (Andy, Gina, Tomás, now of down south fame, and one time managers Martin and Victo, are my personal favourites) beer tastings, cheese and meat platters, and of course, the stars of the show, the beers! If you're a craft beer fan, and don't mind paying for quality, you will have a field day here. Taps generally feature 5-7 of their own brews, with guests and take overs a regular feature. There's also a wide variety of bottles, again from their own Aberdeen brewery, as well as others from as far afield as the good Ol' US of A. Haters, don't sweat it. They also stock a selection of wines, spirits and softs, for those who's palate has not grown to love the taste of a fine porter, slipping down your throat. read more

There are, as far as I can tell, two common complaints about BrewDog: 1. Punks don't have AGMs! Punks don't sell beer in M&S! -No, true. The punk thing is clever, tongue in cheek marketing. It's supposed to be a bit of a joke. 2. All the beer is super hoppy. -Also pretty true. If you don't like overly hopped beer this may not be for you. That said, they are starting to do more that isn't quite so in your face with the hops. So maybe give them another shot Personally, I quite like the beer, although I do wish they'd bring back Trashy Blonde. I like trying the new things they have to offer as well as their guest ales. I recommend getting a tasting flight if you there are several beers you haven't tried before (You get 4 different beers, a third of a pint each, normally coming in between £10 and £15). They do have a few ciders, wines and soft drinks but you'll pay far to much for them. This place is all about the beer. The bar itself is quite nice. It has lots of natural light from the huge windows that face onto the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum. There are booths, long benches and a couple of extremely comfortable sofas. The staff are very friendly and helpful, they'll make recommendations, serve tasters and, if it's quiet enough, run table service. There's no TV, although they do have freee WiFi and a decent selection of boardgames. Afterall, everyone knows Jenga only gets better after a few pints. They do a selection of very respectable burgers, bar snacks and a few other meals as well as a surprisingly decent filter coffee and a range of teas. Bonus points because the Glasgow homebrewers group meet there on Mondays and because, although the toilets are quite small they are always clean and there have absolutely invaluable complimentary items available in the ladies. Oh, and they're a living wage employer and quite right too. read more

In town visiting the University of Glasgow and we saw this pub across the street and decided to try it out - FANTASTIC IDEA!!! The server/owner Daniel was extremely kind and l did his best to accommodate my friend and I. I had the Clucky This Time and it was PHENOMENAL! I've never had a veggie burger that had as great of a consistency as this while also maintaining its flavor. The Cajun Mayo & avocado were a great bonus. I start school in September and I can already tell that this will be a favorite hang out of mine. My friend ha the Soy Division dog and it looked phenomenal. She said it was so flavorful that she felt bad eating it, as it so closely resembled the flavor of meat. It's accommodates Vegan & Vegetarian eaters, has the spiciest hot sauce I've ever tried(also vegan), the service was phenomenal, it had a discount for students AND the owner was kind enough to bring out a dog bowl with water for a customer and her dog. Honestly, this is just one of my favorite dining experiences ever. We could 100% use Daniel & Brewdog back in America. read more

Great Beer, Great food and some of the best staff in Glasgow. Positioned in the shadow of Kelvingrove Art Gallery on Argyll Street, BrewDog has a fabulous vista to watch out over. Good indoor seating with limited tables outside allowing customers to enjoy those rare scottish summer days. Normally around 12 different beers on tap from BrewDog and guest from all over the world. You can enjoy a huge variety of styles and strengths of beer. Great bottle selection covering every price point, strength and style you can imagine. BrewDog also offer growler fills and a take away discount on bottles allowing you to continue you fun at home. Very knowledgeable staff and regulars mean if you have any beer related questions there is always somebody to ask and get a very in depth reply. A lovely menu of Burgers, Pizzas and their fabulous cheese and meat platers give a great base for you to add your beer too. At busy times you can wait a while for food due to the small but efficient kitchen. read more

My only flaw with this place is that as it's usually always jumping (thank goodness for dieting and Dryanuary in January - not for me!) and even at it a bit quieter it was still necessary for us to sit at a high table with stools; not a situation where I feel I can settle in for more than one round. However, as it was quiet the two of us at least had lots of room and didn't have to share the 8-stooled table with others. (That vibe would probably be more of an advantage were there a group of us.) Their main thing is of course the beer, but their small food menu has a good variety of options, and we went for a veggie haggis burger for Mr D, and a falafel hot dog for me. I do prefer a hot dog I can pick up and shove in my face, however, this was delicious, the falafel was very green inside and I liked the effect of the drizzled hummus on top. I was happy that chips were included with hot dogs and burgers and though shoestring style fries aren't my favourite, the options of smoked paprika or sea salt and rosemary as seasonings help jazz them up a bit, and the server was very helpful in offering to veganise anything that wasn't already suitable as it usually comes. Drinks options are wide, and they have spirits and teas and coffees (Dear Green Coffee) if you're not interested in beer. Their beers are suitable for vegans as standard, though some aren't if non-vegan ingredients, e.g., milk, have been added as a flavour, but I've been in there a few times and staff are usually good with someone knowing which ones to avoid. I went for the Pumpkin King beer, quite tasty but at a small bottle and a standard % (about 5%) I didn't feel much of a kick from it. I need to devise a way of more % to the £! read more

I'd like to blame my enthusiasm for this place on already sampling some of their wares but Brewdog is a genuinely great bar. I'm biased because I love the Brewdog brand and their ales but you don't even need to like their beers to find something great. They always have a nice selection of guest as as ales (both in bottle and on tap). They also have theme nights and brewery takeovers. Tonight I'm getting to enjoy a selection of sour ales. The food is fantastic. They have burgers all week and also serve a special stew each Sunday that is different every week. To top it off, everyone who works here is friendly and useful if you're not sure what you want. read more

Trivial pursuit, Dear Green coffee and an amazing burger? Count me in. I love BrewDog, my Grandparents are from/live in Ellon, so it's crazy seeing this brewery go from nothing to world domination. No, but really. The tesco beside the brewery, frequently runs out! Anyways, BrewDog Glasgow. I've walked passed here a lot, but never gone in. My brother was in town, so I figured he would be a good candidate to take here. His only irk due to a night out the night before was no irn-bru and mine was no iced latte. But hey, the coffee was great. Although my brother did roll his eyes at the serving, you know, on wood, in a glass cup, with the coffee in a glass conical flask, with the sugar in a kilner jar. But I loved it. It doesn't say on the menu but the burgers each come with a helping of fries. We did try and order fries, until the waitress pointed this out to us. I had the spicy burger, it did have a cool name. I can't remember said cool name for a hot burger. Anyway the sauce on it was sort of spicy, with some jalepones and I would definitely eat this again. The burger was also the perfect size, not too big where you struggle to finish it. My brother liked his, although not the gherkins! Will be back for proper pint soon! read more

Brewdog is my favourite bar in Glasgow (well everywhere). The beer is great and really varied. The staff are really knowledgable and will happily help you and recommend beer. There is also a few wine, cider and soft drink options. The food is also really good, Brewdog is one of my favourite places to have lunch. In terms of beer there are lots of options, both Brewdog's own beer and some other guest beers. Beers are usually served in sizes suitable for there strength, as the strengths vary massively (3.5% to a massive ~40%). There are also taster trays which are great for newbies. Personally I'd recommend an Elvis Juice, a grapefruit flavoured beer. read more

BrewDog is great! In addition to a great selection of beer, they have a bunch of vegan items on the menu. I had the Buffalo cauliflower burger which was spicy and the cauliflower nicely roasted. Fries were cooked well and the Kingpin I ordered was a great complement to the meal. I must add that the waiter/barkeep was very informative when I, per usual, asked my many questions... and he brought me mustard! I belong plastic bottle of French's. I found this place on Vanilla Bean (vegan Yelp) and was a little leery but glad I made it in. Very lovely place to eat across from the Kelvingrove Art Museum. I was only in Glasgow for a day so probably won't be back but if you go tell them I se read more

Two Americans wander Scotland, drinking their way through tiny towns and major (ish) cities. While the beer was good, we felt it was lacking in hops and flavor. Even the beers that were "heavily hopped" for the Scotch palate didn't hold a candle to the ales we were used to. Until we got to BrewDog. I was thrilled to drink a heavily hopped beer that tasted fantastic. Malty, hoppy, bubbly--all of the things that I love in my beer and had been missing do dearly for the last couple weeks. It wasn't crowded like a lot of people have mentioned, but it was also only one o'clock on a Friday. Their burgers are tasty and reasonably priced, and the bartender was friendly and helpful. It's a little out of the way if you're in the center of the city, but it's definitely worth checking out. read more

BrewDog Glasgow - So good. - Bars Near Me - Glasgow, GLG

BD Glasgow has to be high on the league table of 'Bars with most impressive view from your bar stool'. Its huge windows give you a panorama of the spectacular beaut of a building that is Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum across the road - with the bar's modern and industrial feel, it makes for a terrific contrast (though I did quietly wonder if the museum had perhaps lodged an objection to their opening). They obviously overcame any planning issues :) As with all the BD bars I've been to up to now, you can expect the same subculture of nerdy and/or beardy hopsters (I include myself in this category, by the way) enjoying ales from their heady range. We loved it in here as it was lively but not cramped; we could get a table easily on both times we visited over the weekend. With a prime location and a great atmosphere, though very much somewhere that most people need to go deliberately out of their way to visit, this has to be one of my favourite BD venues to date. read more

Brewdog is possibly the main go to bar in the west ends for lovers of good beer. I've been in every other month since it opened a few years back and I've never been disappointed. Situated just in front of the art gallery, and though a bit off the main drag compared to other west end venues, it's worth it for the trip alone. The venue itself is standard sized bar with a mix of seating, some larger benches for big groups and smaller seats too. There's a selection of board games in the bar as well, which is great fun Though the main spectacle is the beer, brewdog do a range of food too. I've never tried the burgers but have been told by several people that they are one of the best in Glasgow, no mean feat! There's also a range of other items including a meats and cheese board which looks pretty amazing. The beer itself is pretty special, there's a standard draught range of brewdogs own creations, all pretty tasty. The selection changes pretty often so you can always get to try something new. They also stock other brewers on draught, which is always changing. They offer taster boards which are 4 beers served in 1/3 pint glasses, a nice idea if you can't decide. The bottled range is pretty decent too, with a wide range of worldwide beers. There's quite a lot of high percentage beers here too, which are sold in smaller measurements but are something worth a try, almost like a port in taste. Designated drivers aren't left out either, with a very nice selection of soft drinks. Brewdog also offer their soft drinks at a discount to a designated driver, which is a nice touch. Overall it's hard to fault brewdog, despite its location being a bit out of the way, it's certainly worth the trip. read more

Loved the beers and the male bartender last night was super friendly. Some tables are narrow which caused one of our glasses to fall and break, but he kindly cleaned it up with a smile on his face and a cheery attitude. read more

Oh, Brewdog... Brewdog, Brewdog, Brewdog. You make such a thing about how you're so "punk" and "leftfield", and "radical". You're SO out there, that your beer is sold in Tesco/Sainsbury's, you issue shares in your company, and you have a chain of more-or-less identical pubs across the land. Wow, the Pistols would be so jealous. Anyway, what's good about your Glasgow chain pub? Not very much. The place is clean, barstaff are effificent, if nothing special, and the place itself is well located. The negatives? It's overpriced, the clientele are hipster weirdos, the music is too loud and pretty abysmal. But, that's just Glasgow. Here's what annoyed me: Asked for a pint of wheatbeer. "oh, we only sell that in a 2/3 pint". Ok, I'll have a 2/3, a 1/3, and a pint glass to pour them into. "No, can't do that either". Why? "too strong to sell by the pint". It's only 5.2%!!! AArGH. Brewdog - you actually sold a beer called "nanny state", yet you do the same yourselves. Is this irony that only hipsters "get"? You know what? You can shove it. Your beer is average, your pubs are poor, and the only people who "like" your "beer" haven't had real beer yet. I'll laugh my head off when you wither and die. read more

Sigh. I'm not here to ruin the party, but.. Well, to be fair, I liked this place and would like to go back it has a really inviting interior and it's NEW. But when I walked up and asked what cider they have and was told they 'serve beer' I was a bit gutted. Ended up paying £5.20 for two fresh orange and lemonades and a bag of crisps which I don't think the brew dog gods really wanted me to have as, see above, they serve beer in here. And not alot else. I imagine if you're into your beer then you will go nuts for this place as the variety is immense. The menu and ethos of the place also grabbed my attention and I know if this place was identical but with some sort of vodka themed joint I would be giving this place 5 stars, but it's not, and I don't drink beer. Like I said, nice place and I can see me going back with beer drinking buddies getting pints of water or something equally absurd. If you're into your beer, this is an absolute must-see joint which I am delighted to have added to the plethora of places to get a drink in my neck of the woods. As a non beer drinker though (and I know I am not alone!) I doubt there is much to gain from going here. If you like beer.. come here. If you don't.. don't! read more

Staff are happy to give small tasting samples to help you choose, but choose wisely as some of the beers will blow your head off. Nice pizzas and bites. Superb location opposite the Kelvingrove Museum and its floor to ceiling glass frontage takes full advantage. read more

I'm rubbish at booze. It's a long story I won't bore you with, but I have a low tolerance for alcohol and an even lower one for hangovers. Seriously, a lone bottle of weak cheap lager whilst watching TV and I'm a mess the following morning. I'm not completely pathetic, there is somewhat of a medical reason for this, but whatever, I'm not good at booze. We don't get on. So when I do drink, I drink shandys, or I alternate with a beer and a soft drink. It's ok, you can judge me, I've dealt with it. Here's a thing though: I went to Brew dog last night to meet a few of the other fine yelpers and I was a bit nervous about the booze. For one, the beer here is strong. For two, I think they might ban me if I attempted to ask for a shandy. So I went all in. A pint of beer. Delicious. Then another. Then a cheeky half. ON A THURSDAY NIGHT. I was mildly drunk, but not enough to immediately start to worry about my potential work hangover the next morning as I started the walk home. Then I awoke. No hangover. 'It's just being sneaky, it'll hit me mid morning.' I thought. No hangover. 'Ah! The old post lunch attack. Come at me!' No hangover. And now I'm writing this, and it's late, and I can probably say with confidence that there was no hangover. I'm not saying go nuts and drink yourself into a stupor and you'll be grand, because you absolutely won't be, but what I'm saying is that I had two and a half pints on a school night and I do not have a hangover. No shandys, no soft drinks. Just big, strong pints of beer that appear to be so well brewed, so well made, that I was able to handle it, and have no hangover. It is a revelation. Brew dog made a man out of me. read more

Ah Brewdog, the brand, the beer, the way of life that is. The whole thing kinda just grates on me a bit though. I find they market stuff way to aggressively, they slag off all competition and they like to bang on and on why their beer is the best and how they put all other big corporate beer companies to shame. Ironically however Brewdog is becoming huge and they have bars opening up across Europe now. Pot / kettle anyone? The beers are decent, but I find most of them taste pretty much the same (i.e intensely hoppy). The reason I keep coming back however is for the '5am Saint' red amber ale. It's got to be hands down one of my favourite beers - a true taste sensation to behold. If it wasn't for this I probably wouldn't visit as often. Brewdog also make some super potent beers such as the 'amusingly' named 'Tactical Nuclear Penguin', and at about 40% isn't anything like beer and tastes worse than mouldy marmite. The bar itself is nice enough, very striped back with an 'industrial' theme but can be painfully hipster at times. It really doesn't bother me in the slightest, but I know it bugs some of my mates. Food wise, its pretty average. I think they are limited to what they can do in the kitchen (i.e. no frying) as burgers come with tortilla crisps not chips (sigh) and they predominately offer cold or baked mains like pizza / antipasti. The burger I had on one occasions was fine, but tasted of sausage meat oddly :/ Beer is a little pricey, expect to pay at least £4 a pint. Great location and vista across to the Kelvingrove Museum! read more

Poorest service in Glasgow. Not sure if I am too old, too bald, too American, too unhip, or what. But I went into the BrewDog mid afternoon. There were two bartenders and 3 patrons (one with dog). I waited at the bar to be served and was ignored for 15 minutes. I finally gave up when the dog got served ahead of me. I love dogs and am pleased that the bartenders are accommodating- but the dog and the owner came in after me. ;) I finally got the message that they were not interested in serving me. read more

This is a fabulous pub to taste local craft beer. We were there at the tail end of a brewery festival, so I got to sample some interesting beer. Also, I tried the southern fried chicken sandwich, which was absolutely filling & tasty. It's a good choice if you're hungry. I went there twice & it was always busy, a good sign. It's also in a great location- across from Kelvingrove Museum. read more
