    Great place to hang out and enjoy some tasty late-night bites. We've enjoyed several lavash wraps…read moreincluding the chicken, cheese, and Jalapeno with Cajun chicken, cheddar cheese with sliced jalapenos and baby gem lettuce, Southern fried chicken with Maxi's hot sauce, peppers, onions and baby gem lettuce and finally the Halloumi Reuben with baby gem lettuce, crispy O's, pickles, mustard and tomato sauce. The wraps are well constructed and bites of flavor. The fajitas are also well executed and thoughtfully presented. The menu is a bit out there, but accessible to the open-minded.

    I can only review as a bar as I ain't eaten here…read more.. As a bar it is decent, seems a bit rough about the edges in a dive bar type of way, but the clientele usually are ok and the atmosphere always seems pleasant enough. It's got a lot going on, In that there is a club down stairs, food is served upstairs and there is also a lot of focus on it just being a pub. I've been a good few times and it's usually mobbed. I think that's partly because there ain't any other decent pubs on queen street (that I can think of) and it means everyone heads here. In other areas it might not be my first destination, but where it is it ranks quite highly amongst the places I would stop for a pint if passing. Sometimes it even has some unusual bottles of craft beer hidden in the fridges which is always a good thing. Could be a three on anther street, but a better option on queen street, so I will go with a positive 4 stars.

We had been out at local parks, attractions and DIY stores and on way home, decided to stop into a wee gem I had visited in the past with mum. The Twisted Thistle is in the middle of Old Kilpatrick and area of the village appears shabby but the TT is a modern bar/diner located in the shadow of the Erskine Bridge. The interior is very modern and kitchen is open where food prep can be viewed. It has a mix of tables for usual covers and open area with couches for bar adjacent for relaxed vibe. Both were reasonably busy but not overly so. Originally we ate here on a previous occassion as the Lusset ( a former old haunt) didn't do food any more - and sad to say it was very, very run down. However, that was to our benefit once we relocated to the TT. This trip around it was a late lunch / early dinner. I opted for chicken goujons and chilli dip with steak ciabatta as mains. Missus had the soup n sandwich deal. Our youngsters opted for the kids menu with soup and fish n chips for the wee fella and burger for the youngest lass. All were very happy with speed of service, quality of food and we all had a taste of each others grub. Every one agreed on very good value/taste and quality of meals as well as over all service. For me, the goujons were light and crispy and dip was very aromatic - not too sweet and not too spicy. The steak sandwich was cheapest on mains menu (typically tight) but the roll came with chunky steak sliced with onions and cheese. The ends were a little dry but the middle was moist and tasty. Potentially a little expensive for the location but the OK bunch do fancy themselves as a bit up market :) and it was reflected in the high quality of both grub and surroundings. The ambience for a quite quiet day was really good with some ladies lunching in the comfy seats and some lads propping up the bar area all lending to a good atmosphere. The place is very clean including the rest areas. Unknown to me from the previous visit, I spotted that there is a great function area to the rear, so family events could be catered for too - a nice option to learn about. I would like to visit on a weekend evening to check it out then as it's close enough to home to have a relaxed night out and not need to worry about an extended trek home. Plenty of upcoming events with music / DJ advertised such as Hallowe'en, etc. so another reason to nip down on a weekend and TV monitor was on wall with sound down so may be a good spot for watching any big games? In summary; reasonably priced when quality of experience is accounted for. Very very easily the top spot for eats in the Clydebank area. Great big thumbs up. http://www.tripadvisor.co.uk/ShowUserReviews-g186534-d7660613-r319907892-The_Twisted_Thistle-Glasgow_Scotland.html#

    Kind of rough-looking at first, complete with a very few well-worn tables, a rough-looking…read morebartender and big, angry-eyed Jaegermeister hart on the wall blasting you in the face as soon as you walk in, but don't let appearances mean everything. The place was great. The rough guy behind the bar may or may not be one of those guys hired to throw fighting drunkards out onto the street, but if so, he was a friendly rough guy who could recommend the right beer along with the outstanding onion rings with a smile on his face and a description of their ingredients and preparation that was straight from a chef's school's creative menu-writing class by way of a genuine love for the establishment's own big circular fried veggies. Our waitress was a engaging, beautiful, well-rounded and very cheerful Sco'ish woman with equal enthusiasm for the burgers and beers on tap. Good service, all y'all! The beer recommended for my wife was a Czech Pilsner draft, Krusovice, a mass-market offering from Heineken that's tasty, if not very challenging. She said it was meh - but she was on the way to finishing the whole pint when I expressed surprise that she'd gone through more than a third of the glass, her usual place to stop. Either she liked it more than she let on, or the day's exertions led to a need for extra alcohol. Mine was a more-local-er IPA that I don't have the name of because I've been counting on the name being on the receipt and it isn't. Darn, because it was tasty and went well with the food and you should get that. So why should an American get a burger in Paisley, UK? I dunno. We were here to join an organized tour of northern Scotland, where we were promised all the Scottish food we cared to mange for the next week, and didn't really want to go overboard; plus, we'd been in Edinburgh the previous few days, and tried some of the local versions of lots of kinds of foods, so just wanted a quick somewhat-familiar bite as a respite. It was the right thing for us. Somewhat familiar, anyway. The burger was delicious, but ground a little differently, so not quite the same texture. It was singed on the crust (mmmm!) but cooked to medium-doneness in the inside (mmmm!). The roll was a beautiful, shiny egg-white-finished thing with excellent texture and an actual flavor of its own. We each got slightly different toppings; even though they had familiar American names, the outcome was just a little different - and seriously yummy. Get a hamburger or a cheeseburger! The fries were potato-y, perfectly done and very tasty. Skins on, peppered as well as salted, yum, get those. My onion rings were among the best I've ever tried, due to the wonderful beer batter. The sauce was OK, not great. Which brings us to ketchup. Heinz ketchup in the UK is just a little different from American Heinz. UK palates apparently appreciate a condiment that's slightly sweeter, with maybe a hind of cinnamon and maybe cardamom. I like it, but it's kind of a funny thing. Your tongue may expect one thing, but since it gets another, there may be some cognitive dissonance going on. Don't let your brain tilt to the "it ain't right" side! No! Gently, mindfully, pull it over to "Mmmmmm, this is good." Because it is. This isn't an American burger joint. It's a Paisley American burger joint. Dude, you're in Scotland. Enjoy it, it's good. Go there. BTW, the taxi stand is a few steps across the square next to the train station. It's about 5 - 6 pounds to the airport Holiday Inn, one pound cheaper than our Uber ride coming in - and the Uber driver was an asshole who gave us a lousy review, preventing us from getting the return trip. Whatever, dude. Sorry you're bitter that you lost your business, but might it be due to your attitude?

    Made the most of the 5pm offer for 2 courses for £11.95…read moreBooked the table through 5pm, restaurant was pretty empty when we got there but got busier. We ordered the jerk chicken starter and the chicken wings to start, both were really tasty and a great size for a starter. We then both had fish tacos for main course, considering these are £10.95 on the normal menu these were definitely worthy the money. The fish was perfectly cooked and came with the right amount of avocado on top. We also ordered a portion of fries to share, which where skinny chips, and agin really tasty. The deserts were an additional £3 extra and the cheesecake was definitely worth a try. The service was great and the girl left us to chat after desert before asking if we needed the bill. For the choice on the pre-theatre I would definitely go back and try the others!

Looking through the cocktail menu, THEY HAVE SO MUCH TO CHOOSE FROM. I'll definitely be coming back soon. As it was a really warm day (and I love ginger beer) I opted for a Shirley Temple mocktail which was so refreshing - exactly what I needed. Food wise, we ordered the Ultimate Sharing Platter which came with onion rings, stuffed potato skins, BBQ chicken wings and nachos, served with a selection of dips. Everything was cooked perfectly and we loved everything. Definitely no complaints. For £15.50, it is excellent value. Staff were friendly and really attentive, providing water for the table and making sure we were looked after. We had a look at the dessert menu (I was tempted by the Key Lime Pie) but we were so full from the platter we decided to give it a miss. Will definitely be back for cocktails soon!
