The 30 Best Theater in Glasgow

“A lovely, dog friendly restaurant with a varied menu to suit many tastes. The house wine was lovely as were the meals. We dined very early, so it was fairly quiet and we were lucky to get so much attention from the staff .... especially our dog who was made a real fuss of. The food was well cooked and just what we expected with good portions. My wife's vegetarian meal looked wonderful and she said it tasted really good. We would certainly go there again.”

“So this place is new to me. What a fabulous use of space and great homage to what it was before. This place is wheel chair accessible. Has plenty toilets. Has disabled toilets. Has a cafe with ok ish coffee. Vibrant open space with good use of eye catching colour. The chimney in the hidden garden is just a glorious view of industry gone but not forgotten. Please pay a visit to this place. It's pure ded brilliant. Photos attached.”

“Really impressed with the set-up here. Superior to a lot of other festival type things I've been to. I'd even go back in bad weather ! Staff very good. Just brilliant overall.”

“A fabulous little theatre tucked away in the local community!! Their array of shows are always on point☝️ Recently refurbished lounge area is a lovely space to visit prior and after shows and enjoy a refreshment or 2!! Highly recommend paying them a visit”

“Having never been before I really enjoyed the experience. The centre was easy to find and surrounded with plentiful free street parking. Inside the attractive building was well laid out, and had a very nice bar restaurant with reasonably priced drinks. The auditorium was comfortable and cosy. The real stand-outs for me however, were the staff, who were all very helpful and friendly. Overall, a great wee theatre.”

“Loved the reclining seats, having a smaller screen was a really nice vibe. Both staff we met were lovely and quick to serve.”

“If your looking for the perfect room, superb breakfast and the perfect hosts. Alison and Neil provide it all. Terrific”

“Stunning place to grab a coffee and do some reading. Upper reading rooms very peaceful.”

“Beautiful interior, well lit up. Was in to see Nick Heyward live. Csn be used for gigs, weddings and parties. Bar quite expensive tho.”

“Dancing shoes. First time experiencing this. True to the name scotch pie or vegan sausage roll on offer along with a drink included in the price. The play was gripping. Three actors on stage held the audience in their hands. Have paid more for far less enjoyable performance. Can’t recommend this highly enough.”

“Wonderful experience. Nice staff, welcoming as well, the café was a nice moment while we waited for the tour. It deserved a visit to have knowledge of Alexander Thomson and all his buildings around Glasgow. Just I personally don't think it is a good choice to create a rivalry with Mackintosh during the video. It's a totally different era, Thomson is one of the expressions of the New Classical style in 1850. Mackintosh started the 1900 with a real new style. Glasgow and his rich history deserve a common commitment.”

“My 9 year old son has been with GKPA since he was a junior and it has been amazing for him. His confidence has grown immeasurably, from being too scared to go on stage for a small show to now being the 'bad guy' in thr GKPA panto has been incredible. He's made great friends of all ages and backgrounds as well as learning new skills. The opportunities he has had have been fantastic, from performing in various local theatres, both with his group and with external artists to work shopping with performers from the West end stage. I can recommend GKPA highly enough!”

“What can I say, it’s such an amazing school. Outstanding teachers. Reece is absolutely lovely. My daughter has autism and I was so scared about my child starting as everyone in the school are so amazing at what they do. I wanted my daughter to build confidence and excel as she loves to perform on YouTube. I didn’t think they had experience with kids with autism but they proved me wrong and treated my daughter like she was just a person and not treat her any different. I am proud of who my daughter has become. If you want to start your autistic kids in musical theatre or any acting or singing & dancing theatre school of Scotland is the one. Reece is a lovely guy and he treats his students with respect including the parents. He’s not also the founder but he is there for every single kid and takes their education seriously. I have the time and day for Reece and all of the teachers there. Thank you to everyone at theatre school of Scotland.”

“GKPA is an amazing performance arts school. My daughter joined a year ago and has had loads of great opportunities and experiences. She has attended West end shows, performed in shows and even been to New York. Also has been given the opportunity to go to Canada next year. All the staff are so professional and work extremely hard to provide all the kids with great opportunities to assit them with their confidence. My daughter loves attending and her confidence has grown so much. I would highly recommend GKPA”

“Lovely local facility, well done nice clean toilets, cafe actually open selling wide range of stuff right up till event finnished. Warm but not melting theater with a good camber allowing full view.”

“Had a great night at 80's Mania night , the only comment was it was all seated and the seats and rows are that close together you have more room on a Ryanair flight than you do sitting in here”

“A beautiful, traditional theatre with a fun panto for the family. Enjoyed the show, well done to the backstage crew and front of house.”

“Our first time here and we will be back. My grandson paid for the diamond lounge option. Well worth the money. Our staff member, Gary, was excellent. Explained everything we needed to know. Having access to the Ambassador Lounge was fantastic. If you have the opportunity to have this option, I would highly recommend it. The only downside to the visit was the legroom in row A of the balcony. The seats and view are great, but the legroom is very limited. I have arthritis in both knees and had difficulty finding a comfortable seating position. That said, we will be back again at some time in the future.”

“Great little theatre venue. Good cafe with loads of yray bakes. Clear view of stage wherever you sit and good acoustics. Very friendly and helpful staff.”

“Fantastic night here, looks amazing, great venue, great shows.. brilliant time.”

“On Saturday 4th Oct, we visited showcase Paisley. We were served by Abbie, who really made our night. We had made the wrong booking and she helped us to fix it straight away, with no problem. She was extremely kind, helpful, friendly and warm and we were so grateful that she helped us. She made our trip worthwhile and we will definitely be back because of her!”

“Just back from the Karen Dunbar show. What a great show, the seats comfotable( i have a bad back and sat in confort ), the staff are amazing . Thank you i really needed this tonight. X”

“Went to see Avatar in 4DX and half way through the film the screen broke. The staff were very apologetic, had to reset the screen and chairs and took about 15 mins to get everything sorted again. I've never had this happen before in the cinema but the staff were trying their best and it was no ones fault. At the end of the film everyone recieved a free cinema voucher while the staff again apologised for the issues. Other than the cinema was very good, the 4DX experience is great and would definitely come again.”

“Lots of screens. Several of the theaters have very comfy recliners in a more intimate "screening room" sort of setting. We were on the top floor and there was also a bar in the lobby area. Actually some stunning views from the lobby. The theater was clean. The sound was very good. The quality of the projection was solid.”

“Lovely cinama and handy if you live in the local area. 5 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️”

“Great place for a night out really enjoy my night must go again soon especially if there's another Abba night”

“Perfect for a family day out. Plenty of activities to choose from. Bowling, arcade, rock climbing, cinema. Has some food options as well. Plenty of free parking available”
