    The Pot Still is a Mecca for Scotch Whisky lovers...a 5-minute or so walk from the Buchanan Street…read morecentral area of Glasgow, slightly off the beaten path, but well worth a walk to from anywhere in the world. It was recommended to us by 2 different Scots (Our tour guide in Skye and our hotelier in Glasgow), so it has quite a lot of credential from all over. We stopped in for our nightly-during-vacation dram on our first of 2 nights in Glasgow. The place was packed...You order at the bar and try to find somewhere to sit when they serve you. (We found a spot upstairs. Our bartender was quite knowledgeable in the extensive collection and guided us to a good choice. (Our main direction in every bar was to give us something we'd have a hard time finding back in the States.) That got us to a Duich Moss dram...heavily peated (just the way I like it) from Islay...a great choice for one of our last whiskeys in Scotland. If you like Scotch Whiskey, you can certainly get it any and everywhere in Scotland...but this place is a true Scotch lovers' destination...the selection is unrivaled, and you'll find yourself in a great, historic atmosphere to enjoy it. Don't skip this place.

    Small pub, massive whisky selection -- and I mean massive. We're talking over 1,000 whiskies on the…read moreshelves, plus a solid lineup of beers on tap. It's cozy, crowded, and buzzing with life -- often standing room only and packed shoulder-to-shoulder with locals and travelers alike. If you're a whisky fan (or even just whisky-curious), do yourself a favor and try one of their Scotland whisky flights. It's like taking a mini tour of the country's whisky regions without ever leaving your barstool -- and without worrying about driving. The bartenders really know their stuff and are happy to guide you toward something you'll love. A quick heads-up: no football colors allowed, which keeps the atmosphere friendly and relaxed no matter who you support. And speaking of friendly -- the locals here are as welcoming as they come. This is exactly the kind of place where Scotland's famous pub culture shines. Prices are surprisingly reasonable too, so you can sample a few drams without feeling guilty. Whether you're a seasoned whisky nerd or just looking to experience the local vibe, this is the spot. Pull up a stool (if you can find one) and enjoy a proper Scottish night out

The pulled pork was delicious and the brownies were a huge hit! I don't know what it was like before but have heard it was very dark with dark wood panelling. It has also been extended and you can tell they've spent a lot of money on it. It is now a pale blue colour and lovely and bright. It has a sort of American pier restaurant style inside with maps on the walls and ceilings and booths in the main part of the restaurant area. There were a few Scottish influences dotted around, tartan cushions, loch lomond on the ceiling and a stag on the wall by the corner table where we sat. The menu is very varied with plenty of different options from sausage and mash to vegetable pad thai. I love the sound of the wild boar pate starter (£5.50) and would also go back to try the chicken risotto with chorizo, cherry tomatoes and parmesan (£10.25). They also do some very nice sounding breakfasts until noon and gourmet sandwiches (£5.50) and loaded potatoes (£6.00) for lunch. I was impressed with the kids menu which had pretty healthy choices including a vegetable stir fry (all options £5, puddings £2). There is also DJ entertainment on Fridays and Saturdays with cocktails for £5.50. They also have rooms so it could be a lovely place to stay for a weekend by the loch. There is free WiFi so we could tweet away about the yummy food too! We were treated to, among others, Prosecco (£3.95), Kir Royales and Pimms, including the new Blackberry & Elderflower which was delicious! We ended up sampling the seafood, Italian meat and vegetarian platters and they were all lovely. My favourite was the seafood, although I'm not keen on cold mussels, closely followed by the meat platter. The only thing which would improve them is the bread, some nice flat bread (which we did receive on a separate platter) or nicer crusty bread would have been better than the slices of brown and white bread served with big lumps of butter on top. I love tomato and mozzarella and the beef tomato salad version sounds lovely, served with fresh basil & pesto dressing (£4.95). The cherry tomato skewers were nice once I dipped them in the olive oil and balsamic from the platters. Chicken goujons (£5.50) and potato skins (£4.95) The chicken goujons were delicious once I added some salt & pepper, although they were quite greasy with tempura style batter. The potato skins were lovely (again, once seasoned) and much nicer than usual wedges. Both of the above would probably have been much better if served with the sweet chilli dip and aioli they usually come with, according to the menu. The teriyaki chicken was delicious but very mild tasting. Usually served with wilted pak choi and fresh coriander rice (£12.95). We all loved the Moroccan stew wraps, they were full of flavour and I would definitely order one of these for lunch! On the menu though, it comes served as stew with herb couscous and warm flatbread (£11.95). Definitely worth a try. The mini burgers were very well seasoned and delicious, the full sized version with sour dough bun is £9.95 and comes with bacon and cheese, onion rings, chunky chips, burger sauce and house slaw. We ordered some more drinks and saw the waitress using a tablet which she explained was hooked up to the wireless system so the order went straight through. The next thing we tried was the pulled pork which was served on slices of grilled apple. It was lovely, full of flavour and not too smokey which I find can often be the overwhelming flavour of pulled pork. (£13.50 served with BBQ sauce, potato skins and grilled apple.) Then it was time for dessert! This was definitely the highlight for me and I'm not usually that bothered about dessert. We were treated to brownies, profiteroles and meringues. Brownies (£4.95 served warm with ice cream), Meringues (£4.95) and Profiteroles (£4.95) They were all fabulous and had the meringue been chewy it might have been my favourite but I loved the brownie, it had a sort of ganache-like layer on top and was so rich, chewy and delicious. As the brownie was so rich, one was plenty, despite being my favourite. I did snaffle some more of the little profiteroles though! ;) For people like me who find it difficult to choose, there's a sharing sweet plate for £12 with tasters of sticky toffee pudding, vanilla cheesecake and profiteroles with vanilla ice cream. After seeing the fantastic coffee station, I ordered a latte (£2.25) which came with a home-baked biscuit. Both were very tasty and the perfect way to finish off the evening. Even though it's about 40 minutes from Glasgow, the Tullie Inn would be a lovely place to stop for lunch or dinner or even coffee if you're out for the day by Loch Lomond.

The table did feel quite cramped though for such a large group as we were set downstairs next to another booth - may be nice to have a large table separate for special occasions. The staff were accommodating in weaving in and around the sleeping baby too which was kind of them. Everyone's food orders came out with great timing and no one had any gripes. Such large portions for the meals and everything tasted as if it'd been cooked fresh! I opted for the seafood platter (normally a sharing appetiser) which had a lovely selection of smoked salmon, prawn cocktail, scampi and sweet chilli prawns. Would've been good to have some bread/oat cakes served with it to serve e.g. the smoked salmon onto. One issue may have been the fact the waiter asked my Granda 3 times if he was finished with his dinner. Now it was clear he wasn't as he had loads left and infact had the fork up to his mouth. The servers at times were a bit pushy to clear the table but a bit of consideration, especially of older clientele wouldn't have gone a miss. That being said, I can't wait to return to try some more of the menu as you really are spoiled for choice here!

We enjoyed all the food we ordered, though the haggis, neeps, and mash tatties and the ox cheek with pea and basil risotto were our favorites! The risotto had one of those flavor profiles that will likely inspire me when I'm home, trying hopelessly to recreate it. If you order the haggis, don't skip the whiskey cream! It's delicious and pairs very nicely with the haggis, neeps, and tatties. The burger was also delicious. The presentation and flavor profiles of each dish were equally matched, so let the pictures entice you!

    Taking its name from a Scottish word that means "to roam or wander about without a specific…read moredestination" Stravaigin serves a unique menu of globally inspired food and Scottish classics, including what many consider to be Glasgow's best haggis. Michelin recommended but neither starred nor bib gourmand, over twenty years of experience informing a Cafe, Bar and Cellar where locals gather amidst heavily wooded décor, lunch on Monday offers quiet respite from the streets with light music overhead. Friendly but fairly aloof in terms of service, the young waitress spending much of this slow service flirting with a bartender, Stravaigin's menu offers a good bit of customization whether one opts to partake a just a Burger, in courses or using small-plates as a sort of Tapas. Not neglecting Whisky across a Cocktail list, Elevenses a smoky Citrus masterpiece, the "wee" portion of Haggis is perfect for one with four-bites of liberally spiced Offal alongside equal size quenelles of Potatoes and Rutabaga. Spanning south for fried Bitterballen, straight out of Germany with smoked Ham, Fish Fritters get a bit muddled by the aggressive heat and creamy dressing while Carrots are unevenly cooked but pleasant in a mix of Nuts, Beets and unnecessary Tofu. Uncertain why any menu would offer both Flan and Creme Caramel for Dessert, though locals seem to prefer Cheese regardless, an Italian riff in the former was small and smooth but frankly unmemorable in either a negative or positive way.

The food is accomplished gastropub in style and the staff are a friendly welcoming bunch. We ate from the special lunchtime/early bird menu which was well balanced and reasonably priced, especially when considering the effort that goes into preparing the delectable twice baked cauliflower souffle on beetroot puree with crisp shredded potato. It's small size (big appetites might choose a heartier starter) meant I had room to try all three courses, a rarity for me! The vegetarian option on the set menu was vegetable penne pasta which is a staple in our household. I look forward to trying their other vegetarian offerings. One small issue was that the beef in the casserole still had some of the yucky stuff attached (technical term that!) which required some deft removal with a knife. It was a wee bit offputting but not the end of the world. The beef casserole had been perfectly lean on a previous visit. Our small group positively drooled over dessert. The sticky toffee pudding was a delight as was the creme brulee. We followed with teas and coffees which came with mini homebaked shortbreads. But we weren't finished with eating yet! The bill was accompanied by yet another home-made confection. Black Bull, you really know the way to our hearts. Compliments to the chef! (Special set menu: 2 courses £11.50, 3 courses £14.50)
