    Govan, South Side

    This place is one of the many highlights of Govan. It's a multi-functional, friendly and beautiful…read morebuilding. This really is a tourist attraction and a must see on your travels of Govan. The building is more commonly or affectionately known as the PI. It is in the heart of the community and has been since 1906. I've been to so many various events, conferences, meetings and even a theatre production. I first started coming here to do teaching and train young unemployed volunteers about television operation. We had fun using the building as a film location for the many script ideas the young people came up with. On that note you may notice on the odd occassion a line of Arnold Clark vans lined up outside, then you know there's a film being shot inside. The PI has been used for many big budget films, proving it's such a great building. It has many rooms for office space and larger rooms/theatres split on three levels. The PI recently underwent some renovation work, especially for the return of the ship, which sits neatly at the top of the building outside. The MacLeod Hall is the largest hall, where I have arranged and attended many events and ceilidhs. It really is beautiful and a great space. I remember when setting up for an event elsewhere in the building the hall was being prepped for a wedding reception. I did say it was multi-functional. It has a lovely cafe called the Cafe Pearce, this tends to be seasonal so can close during summer and winter holidays. The staff are always pleasant and accomodating, as I have also arranged many events in there as well as it is also a suitable large room. I have also used the Lithgow Theatre for rehearsal space for singing and dancing. Back in December I went along to see a pantomine, The Govan Cat, which was brilliant. Although not a conventional theatre it worked really well with the balcony from the MacLeod Hall allowing for a dressing room for the cast. Many charities and businesses base themself from this building. There's also numerous organisations which use it from the Govan and Craigton Intergration Network to dance and karate classes for young children. It's a vibrant and active centre and it's wonderful to see how a tremendous amount of ventures and activity still occurs on a daily basis. The PI is always listed on the Doors Open Day, so if you want more of a look around I would definitely go along. Or why not just stop by for lunch for a wee cup of tea and bowl of soup.

    Studio Warehouse SWG3 - Street Food Cartel

    Recently I attended the Scoop & Smoak Streetfood Cartel Event here, and had an absolutely amazing…read moretime trying various different street foods that the two different companies had to offer. It was a ticketed event and I managed to get a ticket at the last minute, so ventured on over as I was already in town. The event was held in a massive warehouse inside SWG3, and consisted of both Scoop and Smoak having massive New York-style street food trucks set up in the back of the room, cooking a beautiful smelling (and equally beautifully tasting) selection of foods from mac and cheese, pork belly and chicken sliders to lamb neck, smoked trout and a monkfish BLT. The food was exceptional, if a bit pricy, and I had a great time with Emma M and a selection of other food bloggers! The venue itself is wonderful and would lend itself nicely to any sort of event; be it a birthday party or a massive Yelp event with stalls and drinks and merryness. It can be a bit cold as it is a warehouse, and the toilets are located no where near the main room, but if you can look past all the negatives, including it's slightly dodgy looking location, then you would love this place for any sort of event.

    I went along to SWG3 at the weekend for 'BrewDog Presents' and I wasn't quite sure what to expect,…read moregiven its remote location and look of an old abandoned warehouse. Inside it basically is just a big warehouse and is quite cold as a result, so I'd recommend wrapping up if you're coming to an event here. There are a few different rooms with lots to look at, including an atmospheric red-lit lounge area with a stage and also a bar in the foyer with retro stools and an arty broken mirror on the wall. Some of Glasgow's Street Food Cartel were there, as they often are, and I had some amazing vegan pizza with butternut squash from the So La Ti Dough guys. Beer was the drink of the day, naturally, and there was plenty on offer from the various bars throughout the venue. Big, bare, airy and remote, SWG3 was a bit cold and soulless for my liking, but it's ideal for many of the art events and exhibitions it hosts.

Until that happens, they host various arty events and exhibitions, and it's quite an interesting place to explore, But bear in mind that there's nothing apart from the most rudimentary facilities - not even proper heating. Wrap up warm!

    What an interesting place…read more Currently used as an art space, this place has loads of history dating back to the late 1800's. We were here for the pop up of The Street Food Putter Club (separate review for this event on their page). We were a group of 12 and we all agree that this outing was by far the most random we've ever had, but definitely a fun one! Once inside, we were questioning whether to check our coats, but take note: you're going to need your coats as this place is only heated by floor heaters spread out in the building. The place is pretty huge and this particular event was spread out into 5 spaces- each one with areas to sit and relax, eat and drink. The toilets are bare, cold and dark and the sinks reminded me of old feeding throughs! One little warning should you find yourself at The Glue Factory: watch the white walls. Don't lean up against them or touch them really as they leave white dust marks over everything. Loads of us found out the hard way and had white stuff all over our clothes and bags. All in all, this is a great space. Super cold but if you come bundled up, it makes for a great space to hang.

The fact that I've just renewed the membership kind of shows that it works. That the service, product and value for money is still there and still top notch. This place still has the wow factor and continues to impress anyone who visits me while I'm working. The whole vibe of the place over the year that i've been a member, has been spot on, as have been the continuing member events and use of the inspirational space. It's bang on. Simple as that

So, on the recommendations of the one who knows (Chrizzle of the Dizzle), I went to Society M. Easy to deal with. They coordinated the hotel rooms with the meeting room bookings. Got me quotes and re-quotes and further re-quotes, as my American Colleagues changed their minds. Sorted out lunch and a coffee machine. Lots of writing space in the room, I would move into one of these rooms for the chalk board walls alone. Cover them with equations like a scene from Num3ers. The room for the whole week just worked great. Amanda and Babs are friendly, gracious folks who kick ass at getting stuff sorted for you when the people you are trying to please are less than accommodating. Finally, the Society M membership is a great option for those of us who are employed with international companies and have no office of our own. Do I need it every day? No. But when I do need it - it is great that my comfy space is there. Need a meeting room? Phone these folks. If you don't - I do not want to hear your bitching - you were told.

Cleveden was referred to us from Harmony Bagpiping and it was a great decision! Allison and her dual mother-daughter team were amazing and even went above and beyond to help us with our trip prior to coming, suggesting things to see and places to go! Now for the wedding day - they were at St Conans Kirk all set up and ready before we got there - then, my bride was running late but they kept on improvising and were just fine! They worked so well with me on the ceremony outline and the numbers that were chosen, even altering to match our bride-down-the-aisle song of Love of A Princess. Afterwards they went to Barcaldine Castle to setup and waited patiently as we were running late due to photography and the such - but they were more than happy to oblige! They played our first dance song and then played different numbers throughout the meal and then performed a mini-concert for us after that was done based on my asks for that - mostly numbers from musicals. They got into the act with the theme from Pirates of the Caribbean donning pirate hats and having rum! Such a great atmosphere and quite the characters! Then at the end they had us sing Auld Lang Syne and the theme from Outlander, but in the original verses - - - cannot wait to get that video!! Such a wonderful group of young ladies who stayed with us throughout our entire day and were great people to boot!! Thank you so much, Allison and team, for helping making our day beautiful and special with your patience, friendship and musical ability! If you want a down to earth and feel like you have known someone forever, we suggest you reach out to Cleveden - you will not be disappointed! Heidi and Paul Murphy Surprise, AZ
