This bookclub bar had great vibes and an awesome Photo Booth that my friend and I definitely abused LOL. The drinks were pretty cheap and there was ping pong, Pac-Man, pool, and board games. People of all ages were here and the staff were great! Very vibey little place, totally recommend for a good gossip sesh!
Stopped in for a full breakfast, which was amazing -- and then I got to make my own Bloody Mary! Usually I prefer to leave mixology to the pros but I got a double gin before adding exactly the hot sauce, spices, and garnishes I wanted. Perfect with breakfast.
Had an amazing time. Very cost vibe. Went there with a friend and we both left super happy. Had the drinks and some fries, very sad to not try the other food as we were not that hungry. But we vibed on the drinks and chatted and it was so comfortable. The staff is lovely. Happy faces and smiles. Will definitely come back.
An absolutely adorable spot that has incredible food and a cool vibe. We arrived right when they opened, which is why I suspect it took so long for our food, but it was mostly worth the wait. The staff was also very nice. I hope to return soon
Great spot! I was here about 8 years ago, and was excited to bring my now husband. It didn’t disappoint- Prince quote on the door, giant pink disco ball, Arrested Development playing on a projector, comfortable booths, fantastic drinks, and, of course, the vibes and space are fantastic. While we were there, what seemed like an entire bus or two of young adults (18-21 ish) all wearing tennis/golf clothes or other fun costumes (so many visors!) came, took over for about an hour, then left. We were really amused and unfamiliar with their activity (a Scottish friend was happy to fill us in later!) but they were all friendly and having a blast. And the place is so big that it wasn’t an issue whatsoever. The only things that were weird were the bathroom stall was COMPLETELY dark- I had to turn on my phone flashlight or I wouldn’t have seen my hand in front of my face!! And when we asked for two shots of Maker’s, they came together in a rocks glass. Neither were issues, just funny anecdotes. Would send anyone visiting Glasgow here for sure!
The crispy tofu curry was delicious. Sadly there just wasn‘t enough sauce for the rice, so most of the rice basically tasted like nothing. I mentioned it to the waiter after paying and he said I should just ask for more sauce next time, so that was nice - in general I still would‘ve liked it better if there was enough sauce to begin with. I would really recommend the dish though, just keep that in mind. The portions were a little small as well. According to my friend, the veggie burger was ok, but the patty didn’t taste like much. Anyway, the staff was super friendly and I think it‘s worth a try!
Lovely laid back place, great food and setvice. Loved my visit there. Fish n chips were great. Loved playing ping pong. Revisited today and served by Toni. Great experience and lovely food. Big shout out to Toni....she was wonderful. ❤️
Hillhead Bookclub is a nice pub with tasty cocktails but don't expect the menu to be very cheap. The place is very warm and cozy. They have arcade games, table tennis etc. which makes it a good place to come with friends, if you are looking for a bit more than drinking/eating. They do have bit of a problem with table service. They take quite long to go around tables and take orders but I give that to lack of staff and restrictions. Apart from that very nice place and nice cocktails, will visit again.
