Stopped by this pub on a day out, post lockdown most places need to be booked and all along this part of Argyle Street, which is full of pubs, had all been booked. Managed to get in here, with the social distancing restrictions etc it wasn't too busy, plastic shields up between tables. Hand sanitizer available, one in one out toilet system, table service. Staff friendly and polite. Would definitely go back.

I have known this pub for many years. A friendly welcome is assured from staff and regulars. Best known for it's well kept real ale it is currently the Glasgow CAMRA Pub of the year.

Found it accidentally, a nice local lady working close to them told me about them as i was kinda lost in the area :) Fab espresso, tasty coocked food. Safety measures on place. Friendly staff, reasonable price s. I took a look at some boards on the walls, looks like a place supporting charity causes, had a live music before the lockdown. Definitely will recommend it to my customers (i work in a hotel in Merchant city) and for sure be back again myself.
