Whuppity Scourie formerly Jade's formerly Bridgewater Tavern has changed Management A LOT…read more However, the revamped Whuppity Scourie is a very welcome change. Recently refurbished, they have split the main bar away from the Bistro to allow children to enter and reduce the noise. Good plan! The menu has been overhauled and they don't have as many dishes on the menu as before which is a lot better for the kitchen ensuring quality over quantity. I ordered King Prawns with Calamari, my mom Haggis Fritters and my sister in law Black Pudding in Breadcrumbs with a Chilli Sauce. No complaints. They were tasty and well presented. We then ordered Balmoral Chicken, Fish & Chips and a Chicken Burger. Portions are extremely good for the price, food was cooked fresh to order and of a good quality. There was only 1 staff member within the bistro when I was in looking after 4 tables, which was okay but we did have to wait at times to be served; not her fault though. The dishes are a little expensive for a Bar Bistro in Erskine, but you'd expect to pay more if you dined in Glasgow for the quality and size of the portions. Our bill for 2 courses and numerous drinks for 3 people came to around £56. Not THAT bad when you think of it. All in all, the Whuppity Scourie is much better than it's predecessors and I hope it's hear to stay.

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#

Situated almost directly underneath the Erskine Bridge in Old Kilpatrick, the Lusset is a fairly…read morerun-of-the-mill pub that has gained a steady reputation for good, honest grub at reasonable prices. The steaks in particular are highly recommended. With a vast and vibrant conservatory round the back, it's a particularly good place for large groups and is family friendly, although perhaps one to be avoided on the days of bigger Rangers' games given its slight leanings towards the Ibrox men.

It was after my friends and I had completed a stellar visit to the nearby Auchentoshan Distillery…read more(and were feeling appropriately sloshed) that we decided some grub was in order to help sop up all the whiskey. At the recommendation of our guide (a local), we took a surprisingly pleasant walk through the forest nearby and ended up smack dab in front of Glen Lusset. As you're not exactly spoilt for choice with regards to food in the area, I still left feeling quite chuffed with our good fortune by the end of our meal! The first thing you'll notice about the Glen Lusset is that it's mighty spacious. There's a bar area and a restaurant area, and we were seated in a sort of covered dining room portion that allowed us to appreciate the drizzle just outside and being warm and toasty on the inside. Our service was prompt and friendly, and in no short order a variety of food had arrived for us to sample. For me, I'd decided one round of starches wasn't enough, and had some cajun potato skins (NOM) followed by a macaroni main with chips instead of the normal garlic bread (proof that I was thinking with mah belly). The food was delish, and I heard no complaints out of my friends either. The atmosphere was pleasant as well, with a wide variety of clientele, from folk our age, to families with children, and older folk all seemingly comfortable and enjoying themselves. All in all we left Glen Lusset feeling full and satisfied. If you're in the area, or like us, are travelers looking for a meal after some serious dram-age, then certainly give Glen Lusset a go!

No, no, no. If…read moreyou've ever walked past this pub and thought, "that looks like a nice spot for a pint while I wait for my train", let me assure you, it's not. While station bars in Glasgow city centre are generally ones to be avoided at the best of times, bear in mind this is a station bar in Dalmuir and for that reason, it's a local bar for local people. Nip in for a pint during the day if you really must, but never, ever, ever on a Friday or Saturday night. Yikes.
