I first heard about it as my boyfriend recalled being taken here as a youngster by his mum for a cup of tea after visits to the orthodontists next door. The food is lovely and it is all reasonably priced - from sandwiches to heftier meals. They do a pre-theatre menu of 2 courses for £9.95 which is excellent value because the food here is good quality and genuinely nice. The bar in the middle also ensures a pleasant atmosphere.

With a lovely outdoor seating area, as soon as any sunshine hits Glasgow you can be sure that this…read morepub will be packed with people. This pub is also a hotel with 8 rooms and was where my parents stayed when they visited Glasgow recently. I checked out their room when they arrived and was really impressed - clean, slick and modern. A double room is £80 a night and includes breakfast. We ate in the hotel restaurant on a Sunday evening and got a booking for a table pretty easily - mind you, there was a football match on so take that into account if you are going to book ahead as the bar and restaurant were packed with people. We had a booth table booked for us and the staff even offered to move us to a quieter space if the football got too rowdy which I thought was nice. They have a private dining area at the front of the hotel which I think they only use for breakfast for the hotel guests. I wasn't overly hungry as we'd had a big lunch, so I ordered two starters - one from the pre-theatre (house) menu and one from the a la carte. I wasn't sure whether this would be an issue but the staff weren't phased at all. I got a bowl of Cullen skink and garlic mushrooms in a filo pastry basket. The wait wasn't long and I was impressed with the presentation of both the dishes. The portion sizes were really generous and I really couldn't fault either of the dishes - the mushrooms were lovely and creamy, and the soup had just the right amount of flavour and wasn't too hot. The food is really decent pub food, and for that I really recommend this place. The prices are reasonable, the staff are friendly and the atmosphere was totally buzzing while we were there. I always forget to go here when we're looking for a local meal, but I'll try harder to remember what a wee gem the OP is in future.

What always amuses me about this relatively trendy bar is the demographic of the patrons. We were…read morethe youngest of quite a number of customers in there, and we're in our forties! Perhaps it says more about the Newlands area on a Sunday lunchtime than the bar, because the bar should be popular with a younger crowd. The real ale selection is good, the decor is good, it could be more comfortable perhaps with a couple more sofas, but it is comfortable enough. The food, well it's comfortable too, not challenging, but very decent value and difficult to not like. I went for the 10 chicken wings (you can order 50!) with red hot sauce for the starter, and the "go large" cumberland sausage and seasoned mash, peas and onion gravy for my lunch main. The shock was that the chicken wings had a genuine kick, not what I'm used to in this pub, and that though they were small 10 was a large starter, 50 for £10.99 would be a pretty large meal. At this point I was thinking about giving a four. Then the main came, and it was okay. The mash was typically a bit safe and the sausage too. It was fine but lacking spice and herbs, so back to a three. I think they know their clientele, but I like a more intense flavour.

We had tried to dine at TriBeCa southside a couple of weeks previously, but the 49 minute queue put…read moreus off. Today the queue was promised at 10 minutes so we waited outside (not in the sun so was pretty chilly) for over 20 minutes for a table to become free. When we sat down we ordered right away, having had a while to peruse the menu. I went for their five egg omelette which apparently is so big it took them almost three weeks to find suitable crockery. I digress. The breakfast omelette was certainly huge, with two chunky slices of toast accompanying it. However it tasted pretty greasy, probably mainly due to the sausage which wasn't great quality. I got a bit bored halfway through eating it so gave up and got it to take away! I was pretty full so didn't get chance to get a dessert but they looked pretty interesting. On the whole there's great choice for breakfast, brunch and dessert but nothing to write home about. I wouldn't say it was bad but I don't think I'll be rushing back.

I had, by chance, noticed an advert on the subway and thought it looked interesting! Let me start off by saying that the portions are HUGE. Coming here with a huge appetite is definitely the way to go! I ordered the pancakes with a side of bacon and a vanilla latte. The pancakes were massive and fluffy, served with delicious maple syrup and crispy bacon. Definitely the best I have tried outside of Canada. The vanilla latte was sweet, creamy and filling! My boyfriend had the egg and bacon bagel which came with a delicious side salad. The vanilla milkshake that he ordered was bloomin' lovely! Sprinkles on top and sugary till the very end! I would highly recommend a visit here for breakfast- I will be back very soon!

We were booked as a band for a night of music in Sweeney's, playing alongside some other local…read moreacts. The night itself wasn't organised by the bar but someone outwith who hosts a regular music showcase. The evening felt very uorganised, and although, little of this is down to Sweeney's, the staff were of little help. We arrived early. The decor is eclectic, the pub definitely has a personal touch. I really liked the musical and instrument motifs by the stage area. There's also some quirky signs by the bar. Although, it did all a bit funky and mismatched to me. When we walked in, instruments in hand, we made our way from one half of the bar to the other; one which has the stage. Although the bar staff in the first room had explained we'd to head through to the second, nobody welcomed us or explained what would be happening when we got there. Other than a heckle from some folks at a table and a 'What will you be playing for us?!', we were left to it. We took a seat and, noticing no other instrument-in-hand folks, wandered exactly what the plan was. So we ordered drinks, and then I introduced myself and the band. At this point, more musicians were in the bar. Phew! The barman explained that the person who runs the night was running late. Understandably not their fault, what could they do? But then time went on and on. And there was no update from the bar. We just waited and waited. We'd presumed we were first since it had been listed that way without a mention of running times but after waiting till after the night should have begun (when the organiser finally arrived), we found out we were second. By this point, we just wanted to play; play and go home. In addition, the monitor mix wasn't great and the organiser had mistakenly thought there was two of us, so Sweeney's only paid two of us for performing. The general feeling was that there's venues out there doing amazing things for local music. The best and memorable gigs for us have had great hosts behind them. We just didn't feel this way about Sweeney's, and that's a pity.

This was part of our International Food Night arranged by our very own International Yelper Man of…read moreMystery Rocco G. It sounded like a nice wee change and a visit to deep south of Glasgow. This was indeed a special wee Yelp outing as these don't happen very often. I was looking forward to my Caribbean treat and meeting up with my fellow Yelpers. I managed to find the Southside by train to Queen's Park Station and it's only a 5 minutes hop, skip and jump to The Rum Shack. I was unfortunately in still a bit of pain from the Kiltwalk so think I didn't get to enjoy the experience as much as I had hoped. We were seated on stools at 2 separate high tables. I think I was craving a normal seat, which are available by the way. The menu had a fairly nice varied choice of Caribbean dishes, some with a Scottish twist. So I opted for the Haggis Balls to kick off this food night. The starter was absolutely delicious, the sauce wasn't too hot and with a pleasant amount of sweetness to compliment my balls. Oh yeah! OK, so they were actually "fritters". I felt some of the menu for me was a bit on the spicy side so opted for the vegetarian dish of Cuban black bean and rice with fried plantain and sweet potatoes. I have to say it was very different but quite palatable. It was lovely décor and the staff could not be any more helpful, they were very accommodating and polite. I'm not sure I would venture back here as I felt there was nothing else on the menu I would really try, I think it would be nice to swing by for some drinks as they have a fully stocked bar and I'm sure there's a rum lurking in there somewhere that I may like. Try for yourselves, for me I just wasn't blown out my boots.

Popped in for lunch on Saturday after having it on my list of places to try for a while. It was…read morequiet and when walking in to the main bar for the first time there were no menu's on the tables. We weren't sure where to sit or the set up of the place but after finding a seat the staff were welcoming and helpful. We were in for food more than drinks, however I did have a tasty dark rum and ginger beer or two which was as nice as you'd hope. The service was quick and after ordering the waitress brought over a bottle of their house chilli sauce with a warning that it was incredibly hot - she wasn't lying! It was lovely though, not sure if they do, but they should sell it by the bottle. The menu was small which I find a welcome sign, I always hope this means the kitchen have perfected the few dishes they list and I was not disappointed. To start we had Accra and Popcorn Prawns, the prawns were nice and came with a tasty sauce but the Accra was the definite winner for the starter. For our mains we had Jerk Pit Fish of the Day and Jerk Pit Pork belly, both came with corn on the cob and rice and peas. The jerk seasoning was great, and had a good heat to it, as you would expect. The rice was well cooked and well seasoned and the fish tender and flakey. I could have done with an extra corn on the cob - that dipped in their hot sauce was a highlight for the veggie lover in me. Not eating meat personally, I never tried the pork belly, however I was told it was delicious. It's not far from a top rating for me (I'd give it 4 and a half if I could), the only downfalls I found were the atmosphere little a lacking, probably down to the time of day we visited, between lunch and dinner. I think it would be a great evening trip. I found the material of the plates a little distracting, it felt a little like eating off of paper plates. Over all I'd recommend it, I'll definitely be back to eat here again!

The only one who didn't move for my arrogance, and with eyes firmly on the fitba telly he said "All right Steph? There's no hope, Scotland are p*sh tonight!" But there was hope. They've added a third fridge full of bottled wonders. Just when I thought I'd only have 50 or so beers to choose from, they come along and add another 25! Help yourself and Bob, is indeed your uncle! But maybe that's why there's no room for people in this pub? It's full of beer fridges. This all suits me perfectly well, as craft beer IS my best friend and people are overrated anyway.
