Bar + Block Steakhouse Glasgow in Glasgow City

Lovely and polite service, although the lady did obviously try and upsell us. Nonetheless, we look forward to our food. My partner’s steak arrived overdone, no big deal. However, my burger was very burnt. My partner tried it to confirm it was burnt, disappointing especially at that price. I work in the industry so I get it, but just don’t send out a meal you won’t eat. All whilst being serenaded to loud corporate pop which absolutely murders the atmosphere. I would give a miss.

Nice restaurant, lots of space inside. Server Waheed was very pleasant and helpful. Food was delicious. Cocktails great. Will be back again.

Very nice food and athmosphere. Waheed was a great waiter, treating us like kings. Thank you a lot.

Service was great. Waitress had patience. Menu wine said 12.5%. 11.00% arrives. Was not happy as the second choice was the same. 3rd selected was brilliant. Wrongly advertising or genuine error. Food was class as was the timing.

Service was really good & server was very friendly. Food was delicious

Went for a boozy brunch and had paid extra £10 each for the cocktails which there was only 4 to choose from as the beer and proseco on offer wasn't to our liking my partner didn't like the cocktails much so asked if they could exchange 1 or 2 for a vodka and coke to be told no would upset the till so decided to go elsewhere will be going back to sappora as the cocktails where better a d choose any drinks

Excellent value for money and good selection of food

Went for lunch with a group of friends. Great location, near central station. The decor and ambience is lovely with spaced out tables so you don't feel crammed in. The food was good, although none of us had steak, which is (of course) their speciality. However, what truly made this place 5 stars was our waiter - Waheed. He was friendly, funny and attentive; making such an effort to make our visit enjoyable. Thank you for adding your magic to make our day out even more memorable.

Wonderful food and atmosphere. The lovely waiting staff, Waheed looked after us as usual . Can't beat the steaks here! Will be back very soon!

We tried the Christmas festive menu, and I was extremely disappointed with the quality of the food. As a main dish, I’ve had the Turkey with all the trimmings, and it was very basic. Turkey was slightly cold, the gravy sauce portion was extremely small that wasn’t nearly enough to cover 1/4 of the dish. The quality of the food doesn’t justify the price at all.

Went with friend for boozy brunch,food and cocktails were fantastic(try the love absolutely, OMG) We were served by Waheed who is the employee every company should have,Super friendly and very Attentive and his interaction with customers was fantastic deff 10/10. We will definitely return.

Waheed Amazing!! Went for boozy brunch, food good and great cocktails but the best thing was Waheed he was 10/10 made the experience amazing!!

Came here for a steak dinner with my family and was served by Waheed. Lovely staff and environment, and good food and drinks!

Amazing experience served by Waheed he made the experience 10/10 his service was so friendly and welcoming defo made my day

Barman lovely but… A member of staff who had just finished shift and came from the back to have a drink after his shift at the bar. He went out mid drink and clearly smoked cannabis as when he came back to the bar to finish his drink the smell overpowered the whole place. Awful!!!!!!! Do not smoke that and then force if upon your patrons. Disgusting.

The food here was amazing. Honestly, I couldn't fault it. My friend and I ordered from the set menu and also ordered some small plates. The cheese fondue was so tasty, a must try. We both had the trio of steak as a main, and the steaks were brilliantly cooked, very tasty. The service was ok, until after the bill was paid then it seemed like the waitress didn't feel the need to be helpful anymore. My friend has a disability and when she asked to use the disabled toilet, she was told by staff that they didn't think it was working and she'd just need to go upstairs to use the toilet. The toilets upstairs are over two flights of stairs from the main restaurant and there is no way she'd have been able to make that climb. Seemed like a situation where because there was no visible disability that assumptions were being made instead. If the disabled toilet wasn't working then that's understandable but at least confirm that rather than say to someone, they'll need to just use the toilets upstairs then walk away. All in all though, I'd recommend for a meal. The food really was some of the best I've eaten in Glasgow.

Steak was lukewarm asparagus cold broccoli cold toilets ladies a disgrace four our of six stalls dirty toilet.we didn't say much at the table ,but I pointed the above to a female. manager who said sorry we paid the full bill a tiny discount would have been appreciated but none offered restaurant was very quiet . service was very good but would not return as the food let it down.Bill was 130 for four people

Great staff, great food. Have eaten here before and will certainly eat here again. They know how to do steaks right! Even if my companions were heathens and wanted medium-rare! 😉

Martha made our night, we both fell in love with the Sagittarius at first order! ♊💙♐

Celebrated my birthday in Scotland at the Bar & Block. Good food and fabulous service. Waheed made the evening complete by singing to me.

We had an early dinner for my wife's 60th birthday. Amazing food and atmosphere. Waheed our waiter went over the top to help us celebrate. Highly recommend!

The Waiter, Wahid was lovely however this restaurant leaves allot to be desired. we arrived without a booking at 19:00 on a Thursday evening. We tried to order beef burgers as it is a Beef/Steak restaurant. We were told they had no burgers at all, which was a surprise. We had to order chicken burgers instead, which when they arrived left us questioning how they can charge £18 for a tiny burger and 4 chips. The plate was practically empty. They also forgot my mums coffee that she ordered and the glass given to her for her Sparkling water had a strong smell of curry/BO, she had to ask for a new one. The waiter was the only thing that kept us from walking out.

Here for the third time. First time gave it five stars for both the food and service and would have this time too, but the time in between the food and service was quite poor. Needs a bit of consistency.

Staff were really friendly and patient with our group. I had the sea bass and it was delicious!

Emily is amazing!! She made sure that we enjoyed our evening to the greatest extent :)

Delicious food and cozy vibes, we truly enjoyed our visit and had a great time. The steak was cooked exactly how we wanted. The only downside was that the service was a bit slow, but I think at the time they were just a bit short on staff 😅

Would I go back? Definitely. Everything was tasty and well-cooked inc. the steak which was cooked how I asked for it.

Great place food was excellent

Considering it was quiet the service was slow

Promised so much but let down by average food and mixed service - the young lady was brilliant other service staff were average

I stayed at the premier inn attached to this establishment. I met my 23 year old son & his partner for drinks here. The bar staff asked for I.D. for both my son (who had none) & his partner. My son is clearly over 18, however the barmaid took great delight in refusing him a drink as he had no i.d. I watched not only this particular barmaid but all of them over a period 2 hours and not one of them ever cracked as much of a smile! They were dour and had absolutely no intention of striking up a rapport with any customer. This was a nice location and has so much potential but they need a total staff overhaul.

Waheed has greeted and served my partner and I on 4 occasions now and we always look forward to coming back to see a friendly face. Cheers the day up excellent customer service and goes the extra mile. Excellent food as always. We look forward to our next visit Waheed see you then 😊

Called in and had an excellent steak and a really nice drop of wine. But the big win was the waiter. WAHID, you are a legend! Rare nowadays in a city restaurant to meet a waiter who takes time to talk to the customers and look after them. If you go for nothing else, go to say hello to Wahid

Had lunch last Friday with my sister, the food was lovely and the service from our waiter Waheed was exceptional.

The food was amazing and our server, Waheed, could not have been more welcoming and friendly. He went above and beyond to ensure we had a special night.

Excellent meal and good service for our visit in glasgow. We would definitely visit again on our next trip to the United Kingdom. Waheed was great.

Fabulous food , fabulous service. Waheed was amazing, nothing was too much trouble. Lovely atmosphere , relaxed and efficient. Highly recommend

Had a fantastic meal with my fiancée. Ordered 4 small plates, portions were lovely for what they were, the prawns and the brisket burnt ends were incredible! Ordered 2 rump steaks, an 8oz and a 12oz, and unfortunately both were marred by being the wrong temperatures (fiancée had to send her 8oz back because it was rare/blue when asked for as medium). Mine was requested Medium rare, and came between medium and medium well. Still tasted lovely, just wished I'd sent mine back too. Prices on the steaks are a little up there, but the starters are very well priced so it makes it feel quite balanced overall if you're there for 2 courses at least. Planning to come back here later in the week for another meal, would definitely recommend.

Very tasty food and super friendly service. Waiting times were a little longer, but that was ok as the food was very good.

The steak itself was good but the whole meal itself was vastly overpriced . We had a chateaubriand for 2 . The sides were mediocre and not very substantial . Our bill for just a main course wine , snd a couple of drinks came to £118 . This included 2 overcooked prawns and 2 overcooked scallops for a total of £10 - ripoff . Would not recommend with many better options in Glasgow to eat at .

What a fantastic anniversary dinner was just had. Waheed was the best waiter we have had in the longest time. Single handedly made the night. He even gave his a little present for going home :) From Gav & Lisa

Great restaurant. Good food and friendly staff.

A very nice place belonging to the Premiere Inn hotel. The food offered is probably standard for all Premier Inn hotels. The service is impeccable and helpful, but the downside is that the kitchen closes too early and some employees don't even know what time it is.

Went to try it. Food was ok but don't think I'll be back.

We had booked this for my son’s 15 Birthday and we had a lovely time. The restaurant and bar was really nice with a lovely relaxed atmosphere and our waiter Waheed was great, a real asset to the business. He made my son feel really special although slightly embarrassed when he sang happy birthday to him 😂. Food was nice too thought could have done with a little bit of veg to complement the perfectly cooked steak.

Tried to walk in at 19:30 and we were turned away when the restaurant was practically empty (about 6 people sat down) the greet staff actively tried to send us somewhere more expensive (£150 for two people we were quoted) we went outside to check online booking availability and there was nothing booked from 19:30 until close so we booked the next slot at 19:45 and walked back inside and said “we managed to book a table” for the greet staff (who we found out later was a manager) to say “well I guess I’ll have to seat you now, I would have put you in when you came in earlier if I had the space. You’re not likely to have a good experience now as we are busy and the kitchens overwhelmed” (still only around 6 people eating in the whole place at this point). We were seated and kept receiving stares and side eye from the manager who “greeted” us and who quite frankly had an atrocious attitude. Ordered regular coke and received diet Food took way too long to arrive, was average at best, not worth the price. Steaks were undercooked, both were ordered medium we received one rare and one close to blue but somehow charred, the sides were bizarre or just poor quality, garlic mushrooms that had clearly been microwaved, and “corn on the cob” that consisted of four slices of a corn cob that were drowning in what can only be described as supercharger sauce from kfc, coriander, and some kind of cubed soft cheese The only positive of the whole experience was our server Ellie who looked like she was the only person on shift doing anything at all! She kept a smile on her face even though she was rushed off her feet waiting on every table alone (more people had come in since we’d sat down) she was friendly, attentive and apologetic. She is the only reason I haven’t rated the service lower Whoever the manager on that shift was needs to be knocked down a few levels and get a serious attitude adjustment and Ellie should run a shift or two Chips were decent

4 out of 5 steaks were fabulous. One was fatty and they only had one Sunday roast left even though we reserved a table for 6 people

Had a lovely meal and drinks, staff very helpfull - wish we had whaheed as our sever tho, seems to bring life/personal touch to the place! Credit to him!! toilets however disgusting, don't think this is the resturants fault just the dirty females that had been in before me.

I’m not recomended this place, personal is very poor qualification. Absolutely empty place and not friendly personal.

We were staying at the premier inn located next door first experience was nice my partner had the 8 oz steak which was slightly overcooked but still very nice I had the fish block which was amazing service was great but we were in early for dinner 6 pm Next morning had the unlimited breakfast which was great again the server I forgot her name was amazing as the restaurant was full thank God we booked a table In Sunday we went at 5 pm hopeful to get a roast unfortunately they ran out but wasn't a problem my partner had the sea bass dish which he said was the best food he'd ever had I went for the small plates which were amazing apart from the corn chip with guacamole unfortunately the chips were chewy rather than crunchy but the rest was unbelievably lovley our server was Waheed such a charming man nothing was too much trouble he convinced me to have the tiramisu which is my favorite well it didn't disappoint we will definitely be back when we come back to Glasgow Well done bar & block it was our first visit and we loved it !!

Went for the Sunday roast. The service was attentive if slow, and the temperature was insanely cold. The meal itself was all right at best, with the chicken the highlight. I got the ultra roast that also include lamb and steak; it was just a slice of each one, and honestly I'm still not sure which one was which. The potatoes were obviously frozen; the broccoli and the peas were good. Honestly I'm sure there are better options in Glasgow but it's fine if you can get a deal/voucher.

We had a GREAT experience here. Waheed was incredibly kind, helpful, attentive, and funny. The steak was perfectly cooked and tender, and we loved the truffle mac and cheese as well! Would recommend! Got us in as walk-ins on a busy Saturday night. Lovely place with reasonable prices!

Everything burnt and under seasoned. Waaaaaaaay overpriced !!!

Friends suggested this restaurant for our lunch gathering. We were first greeted by a not so happy guy then our server Wahid came and turned our dining experience to a delightful one! He is one of the few you get in dining places nowadays, I felt like I was in business or first class onboard a plane! He delivered one of the highest standard of service I’ve experienced in this Kingdom! There are so many to choose from the menu, it was Sunday so I chose the Sunday roast beef and priced around £16 which was big in portion. It was perfectly done and well presented. Friend had the sea bass and was very good too. There are also 2 courses lunch available with good price. A-la-carte prices are slightly on the high side but would try it to find out next time. Friend had the Grapefruit margarita which was absolutely fabulous! My house red wine was ok. We couldn’t stop commenting how impressive Wahid was and left him a big tip. Definitely will be back. 👍🏼

Easily the best rib eye I have eaten.......cooked to perfection...suft not up to expectations ..Eton mess delicious too. Can't wait till next visit.....

Attended last night for my mums birthday. Sat down and as soon as seated an OUTSTANDING Waiter greeted us. I have never experienced a waiter that makes little things make a restaurant stand out.From taking all our names individually and remembering them the full night including kids. Going the extra mile to make my mums birthday that little special with a cake. Wahid made our night with his outstanding quality and this restaurant has an outstanding man with fantastic qualities and we couldn’t be more thankful for his service. Our food was fantastic and our kids also loved their food aswell wahid given the kids his time and making them feel important. Will definitely be back but will be requesting my man Wahid to serve us. Thank you all I recommend highly

Said they were closed at 20:50 on a Friday night. Staff didn't know if they were open or closed. The place was empty though on a busy Friday night after payday. We were a group of 5 looking for some steak. Turned away. Told no more orders before 2100 on a friday night. Seems like they lost a good few hundred pounds tonight...

Food was nice enough but small portions for the price. Waited an hour between courses even though the place wasn't packed. We were given our starters for free because of the wait but me and my family wouldn't go back

The steak was amazing and staff polite and friendly, also atmosphere is romantic

Service was fab, and food was delicious.. They didn't have our chosen wine but gave us an alternative at the same price..Wakeed was our server who was very attentive... we have already made plans to return next week

Terrible service not enough staff meal chilled as it sat so long waiting to be served shame as it tasted great only cold waited too long on drinks too the maitre de was just standing around doing naff all. Barmaid could run drinks out if no customer at bar

Every bite was delicious! Wahid made the experience amazing. He really goes above and beyond. We came on a slower night and everything was prompt and perfect.

The food tasted good, but was not hot. The service is very slow, but that is due to the lack of staff. Once they can get a full staff, I believe they would be great.

How is this restaurant still in business? For 2 nights I have been turned away because they “are no longer taking walk-ins”, notwithstanding that the restaurant is only half full. Accommodation is not their strength.

Amazing. Wahee gave us fantastic service.

Very mediocre steak, beef popcorn was nice, I'd say slightly overpriced for the quality

Table was booked. Went in an was approach by a gentleman with a slight attitude problem ( perhaps because I was wearing a hoodie he wasn't happy I was in there). After i was seated a very pleasant waitress came to the table and took my order her service was amazing and the food was good. Other then the initial host i was very pleased with my visit.

Waheed was excellent, very knowledgeable of his steaks

Waheed, our server has been absolutely amazing. We had a large party of 14 and he was so helpful and attentive. He couldn't have done enough for us, he was very personable and catered to our every need. The food was amazing and atmosphere lovely! We will definitely be back.

I had a fillet steak cooked rare. WOW. What a steak! One of the best I've ever had. Service was on point and quick. 10/10

Ordered a mega burger but looks like a happy meal, for the price poor.

30/6 update/revisit We went for a date, our waiter absolutely made the visit go from 4 to 5 star, Wahid E. Absolute credit to the restaurant. Welcoming, friendly, funny, fab chap and it really does make a difference to your experience. I had the half roast chicken again, o/h had 14oz sirloin steak and a side of pigs in blankets. No waiting time, service was fab. The carrots, I don't know if glazed or what but they were superb too. Both too full for dessert, 5/5 this time. My first time going, o/h had been 3 or 4 times with friends The chicken, dear lord the chicken is absolutely beautiful/tender. I always loved a half roast chicken but so many places stopped selling it. O/h got the steak. Others got the ultimate so the chicken, bit of beef, bit of lamb. Our other guest had lamb. Gravy pots are really small but can ask for more. My roast potatoes were really drink but I got more gravy. Got a side of pigs in blankets and the mushrooms. So nice. Water for the table, they didn't sell pepsi max (my fave) but do have diet coke. We booked. Toilets are upstairs but they have a disabled downstairs. Beautiful interior, big, lovely design. Staff really nice, repeat drinks took a while to come for with the food and it wasn't overly busy but otherwise great and would certainly go back 4.5/5. They also have a boozy brunch style menu £30 for drinks (cocktails) and food, think I saw cheesy bites so we will need to check that out sometime.

Wonderful steaks, perfectly cooked, great wine list

The streak was very very good, our waiter, Waheed was super friendly and attentive. There wasn't much to criticise.

Haven't been here for a while because the standard of food went downhill (small portions and not very well cooked) but came back last night as we were staying in the hotel and weather wasn't great. Immediately on going into restaurant the atmosphere was great with a lovely singer providing the background guitar music. Restaurant was quiet and we got a nice window seat. Server (sorry can't remember her name) was lovely and took our order quickly and starters arrived. I had Asian crispy beef and wife had garlic prawns, both of which were delicious; mine in particular seems to have been upgraded and the portion size was huge compared to previous visits. Wife's prawns were large, plumpy and very well cooked. Onto the mains. I had the 8oz rump with a side of onion rings; no sauce because I prefer it without, and my wife had the house salad with an added chicken breast. I have to say it was absolutely perfect. My steak was cooked perfectly and the chips piping hot and a large portion. Again portion size seems to have been upgraded compared to previous visits, where there was only a handful of chips and the onion rings were spot on. My wife's was also perfect and the chicken was delicious and succulent. Overall it was a lovely evening and whatever has changed keep it up and we'll be returning. Thank you 😊

Nice place, very good food, nice personnel

Loved the steak sandwich and wow for the Eton mess. Def be back

Lovely restaurant with delicious steak and chips. Served by Waheed who extremely friendly and pleasantly attentive.

We were served by waheed and the his hospitality and service was amazing

Great food and Waheed provided excellent service and made for an all round great experience.

A bit disappointed there was no lamb for my sunday roast and whil the presentation of the roast dinner was lovely,there was only two very small slices of roast beef.My partners chicken dinner was massive though!The service was excellent.

Absolutely amazing team! I was looked after by Kait and nothing was ever too big of an ask. Kait provided excellent service combined with a laid back presence which I loved! Thanks for recommending the best drinks and food too! Will definitely be coming back when I'm back in Glasgow!

This is our second visit here to meet family and again was a very good experience, Staff are lovely.

Amazing service !!! And I mean !!! 130% perfect service. So comfy charming happy, just perfectly right by this amazing guy Waheed ♥️ love him! And all of us did fall in love with him 🤩♥️ Sweatheart Agnes ♥️😘

Have eaten there a couple of times when I've stayed at the adjoining Premier Inn, and it's fantastic value if you get the meal deal. The steak dishes are top-notch, always done to perfection, and the variety of starters and sides is great. I really recommend the burnt beef ends (and keep the juice by you until the main for dipping!). The service has always been great, but the most recent time was with Waheed, who really made the meal something special - it's really pro-quality service with him, and it elevates the whole experience to another level. What an absolutely great addition to the team. Wouldn't hesitate in recommending it, particularly if you're staying at the Premier Inn. Great place.

Under done steak. Cold/bearly warm starters. Had the steak sampler and was very under done. Don't ask for there special steak sauce as it's hp and bq mixed together

Have walked past this place many times and always wanted to try it. Took the chance this week and was not disappointed. From arrival friendly staff, although a feeling of 'chaos reigning'. Shown to our table, menus provided. Took a bit of time to get orders given for drinks and then too have them delivered, but not in a hurry, so there no real issue. Food ordered and again delivered in fairly good time. The quality of the food was first rate, but that is what I would expect, ur paying a premium. Food issues. So I ordered a medium rate rib eye steak and got a steak that was one half medium rare, one half medium, but not much of an issue. As an extra ordered surf and turf, prawns option. Expected more than two prawns for the price. So in all content, but felt a little ripped off. You pay for everything as an extra. Meat and chips included, but everything else (sauce/S&T) is extra. And when you are paying a premium, this seems a little over the top. I enjoyed my visit and would happily go back but not at the price they wanted.

Our server Cass was very friendly and helpful.

The small plate 4 for £21 was the worst. The chicken wings were too dry and too salty and the squid was overcooked! The prawn was just soso. We ordered 14oz rib eyes and followed the recommendation of medium. It turned out not juicy at all and it’s like well done. Not fat and all dry meat The truffle Mac and cheese was soso The chicken grill was also soso

Served by Lisa, absolutely outstanding. They where attentive and recommended the short rib which was brillaint, melts in your mouth. Cocktails where great too, loved the mango mojito highly!

Love this place, food is great and staff are lovely. The service is fab and fast, the person serving us Lisa was chatty and friendly and made us feel comfortable. Great atmosphere will definitely be back.

Everything about our visit was great, Waheed is excellent with the customers

We enjoyed the meal ,three of us were in our party.Waheed was our server and he was excellent and made our evening much more enjoyable.

We had a lovely experience when we dined at Bar and Block. Our waiter Waheed was soooo friendly and added to our overall enjoyable experience. We will be back xx

Amazing food, perfect ambience and a impeccable service by Waheed was a feather in the cap …we will definitely visit again :))

Great food and service. Lots of small plates to choose from, recommend the butter chicken wings. Went for the red pepper and harissa chicken burger for something different and was full of flavour. Will be back.

Excellent service from Waheed. Drinks food and pudding all lovely. Thanks

Had a fillet steak which was cooked to perfection followed by a dessert which was amazing. The waiter waheed was very attentive. Will definitely be returning

We had a nice evening! Food was good enough, service was great. Could've used some background music to create some more ambience!

Bar and restaurant for the Premier Inn City centre and quite different from any other PI restaurants. Large, modern, decent vibe, lots of booths and lots of steak!!
