BRODIES Bar Restaurant Restaurant in Glasgow City

Great pub just next to Queens Park. Tasty loaded fries and Katsu compliment lots of tasty drinks. Staff welcoming and happy to help.

A lovely spot by the park, but a bit expensive. 2 pints cost £12.70 The atmosphere outside was lovely, but inside get a little cramped and loud

EDIT: menu has now changed (March 2024) and bit pricier and not as good hungover food (as I originally mentioned). Changed to a limited and higher end menu, but still great pub & good food Love Brodies for a casual lunch - do good hungover food too. Also great for drinks! Especially in summer, loads of space to sit outside. Dog friendly as well.

I was here for a friend's birthday drinks, rather expensive no matter what drinks you buy

The staff was very nice, but the same cannot be said about the food. The haggis was too salty, and the veggie korean chicken was simply supermarket quorn nuggets covered in chilli sauce on top of basmati rice, and a salad with lettuce and tomato. Yes, lettuce and tomato. It is incredible how someone can mix so many asian cuisines in one plate, and still manage not to use a single korean ingredient, which gives name to the dish. The best thing about this place is that it is the only place that served food after 9pm on that road. I would never leave the house to go out.

Great bar friendly staff and locals terrific food and service 👍👏

Great little bar with great food. Good atmosphere and good music. Average price for a 2 or 3 course meal. All dishes I chose were exceptional and well presented. Fab and helpful staff.

Had a lovely evening at Brodies, the food was good, the beer was cold, and the servers attentive, will go back.

Simply outstanding beer selection. Really top class German beers on tap and plenty of bottles to choose from. Food is of a good standard and reasonably priced. Always a good place to visit. They need to bring back the table service in the summer. Particularly for the outdoor seating area. It's an easy fix and would make it an easy five star.

Say they accept dogs but only on high tables which is impossible to sit at with a dog. Annoying thing is the place was completely empty.

the service and the food was quite bad bruh u need to improve

Decided on Brodies for a few drinks and a bite to eat. Had a few drinks in the bar before moving to restaurant area for food. Hubby got a bacon cheeseburger & chips (£16) which was a good portion size and delicious. I opted for a veggie curry (£15 on Specials board). When the curry arrived and we were asked if we wanted anything more, my immediate thought was ‘more curry!’ The bowl was only a third full, whereas the rice (in the same type bowl) was overflowing. This dish is also served with a large bread wrap. The curry was delicious but suffice to say more than half a bowl of rice and 2/3 of bread wasn’t eaten as there was not enough of the curry to soak it up! I did express my disappointment to the waitress and she said she’d informed chef. Sadly, no further response or reaction to this. At 15 quid, I’d say this is definitely overpriced! On this, prepare for random steep pricing. A pint of Tennents is around £4.65 which hubby says is reasonable, but £3 for a can of Coke!!! The location and atmosphere are good but mind and bring your big purse if you visit. And, if opting for the special veggie curry, prepare yourself for more generous serving of accompaniments than the actual dish.

Super dog friendly, food is pretty decent, although some things pricey for the portion size. Great atmosphere, lovely staff and great music choices 👌🏻

Food very nice and decent size portion. Went for the burger and the pakora to start.

Absolutely lovely place to go for a quick bite. Went with my parter and our dogs and were made to feel very welcomed.

Superb set menu for new years eve the 2 members of staff doing service on tables were fantastic There customer service went above and beyond at such a busy time well done again guys

Service was quick which was fantastic since we were in a rush, however the dishes were very overcooked, dry and had little flavour because of this. Which is a shame as the location was pleasant.

Tiolets.filthy no handwash floors and toliet pan filthy woundnt go back.

Nice pub, well presented. Staff very nice. Meal average at best. Nachos cold - replaced and not much better. Staff offered free drink so cannot fault service. Burger average but a spoons just as good at half the price

Great pub surprisingly good food

The bar was empty when I visited which is possibly due to the beer prices which is such a shame as it's a really nice place. Drop the prices by a pound and the business will increase dramatically.

We went in for drinks only, the Guinness was very good and the staff were friendly and professional

I went with my family and there were quite a few of us , we ordered fairly quickly and the food came fast enough , some of us had three starters for £17 and asked how it was served and was told that it all came together which a bit of a struggle for space a a bit of a rush to eat, some of the others were a bit disappointed with the food being a bit rough and ready although not unpleasant but I was really happy with my califlower pakora which although roasting hot was delicious I also had the vegan meatballs which were nice as well unfortunately I chose the pide bread as my third choice which was a huge slab of dry bread which some olive oil and balsamic vinegar which I did not really enjoy overall it seemed quite nice but the bill came to over £200 which was a bit of a shock considering the bill payer didn't really enjoy their food that much

Love coming here with friends and family... never had anything but a positive experience. Lovely bar, food and I find the people here friendly and attentive. Great place to visit😁🍻

Bar staff aren't the most polite, the place desperately needs a clean and the food is rather expensive for what you get. I don't think I'd be back

Seems to be a wee bit of a theme developing here. My buddies & I had a similar experience to the reviewer below. Enjoying the rare September mini-heatwave outside but our afternoon took a downturn when we went in to order lunch. We too, we're refused a tab in case we "ran away" (three men with a combined age of 201 - and two good knees between the three of us....). The barman was pleasant & apologetic, but the torn-faced blond barmaid who felt it necessary to interject had a very unpleasant & sarcastic demeanour, loudly snapping "that's the way it is & we're no' changing it for anybody". Needlessly aggressive - so we also nicked over to the Stag & Thistle across the road & had a terrific lunch serve by very pleasant people - who automatically started a tab without asking and guess what - we settled added a £20 tip to the £118 tab - and didnae run (or even hobble) away. Too many good, customer focused pubs in the area to give this place the time of day again......

Staff are unwelcoming and obnoxious,(I overheard them badmouthing customers who where simply trying to find a suitable table for there group.) Decor is tacky and generic,menu is overpriced glorified pub grub and the men’s toilets only have a urinal? Avoid this place there are plenty of better places nearby

Drinks are drinks… not hard to produce or serve….. however po faced request to starting a tab for lunch ( no you might run off) was poor… went across the road to the Stag…lovely service and great food…avoid.

Great vegan food and very dog friendly! Fantastic live music.

Food was bland. Wine glasses and glasses for water were dirty. I asked for a fresh wine glass and that was also dirty. We were a party of 4 and each of us ordered a cocktail at £9 each and it was the worst made cocktail each of us have tried, hardly any flavour and couldn't even taste that it had alcohol in it. Overpriced for what you get. Won't be returning.

Went with family staff really good service and atmosphere food was exactly as described and tasted even better it won't be the last visit Thank you to the staff and chef at Brodies

Great place. Food is always brilliant.

My colleagues & i spent time & money here for our post match analysis on Saturday. Cajun pasta & draught ipa lager was terrific. The service from a young Canadian girl was top class, very genuine and friendly. The playlist was so good we asked what is was called and were furnished with the spotify playlist. Overall a throughly enjoyable experience and will definitely be back soon. Keep up the good work guys. Kind regards, Jack Paterson.

Staff were lovely for the majority of our visit, but at closing time, the member of staff clearing the premises was quite aggressive, which was disappointing.

I was in early with one of my dogs, so it was quiet and I never had anything to eat, going on when I pass though always seems busy and popular so food and atmosphere I am only going with the number of customers.

Food: 5 stars 🌟 Service by Kate: 5 Stars 🌟 Good atmosphere 👌- missing a bit of music. I remember there was some last time when we were here. But all in all: very good place.

Brodie's has upped there game. I go here every few months. I went last night and the food was banging. Lots of wee sides and it was tasty. I think it's a new menu maybe but the food and was service was the best it has been in years. Would recommend.

It is ok, the staff were friendly enough, but not the place for me, I am sure others may love it.

Lovely restaurant but limited gluten free choices on the menu.

In for my bday with a group of 12, on the same day as Scotland playing at hampden. Bar was very busy due to this. However, service was swift. Everyone really enjoyed their food, huge portions and the staff were very attentive and patient. Will definitely be back. The steins of beer are also a fun addition to the evening 😀

Brodies is a great wee place for a drink after you’ve been out a walk in Queen’s Park. We recently came for an afternoon drink but ended up staying so long we had dinner there too. We each had burgers which were great. Friendly staff, nice atmosphere.

Loaded fries are always banging. Good service and tends to be space.

Amazing place to go for a pint and some food. Cozy atmosphere and good service :) The food is really tasty and they have a wide variety of options including vegetarian and even dog treats! 🐶 ❤️ Drinks are really good too, espresso martini is a go for here, always delicious!

Was at Brodies today with my four sisters for cocktails before a meal, the person behind the bar, sorry I didn’t get his name,was very friendly, professional and extremely knowledgable about the cocktail ingredients, he went above and beyond even sourcing mint for our cocktails when it had run out by acquiring it from a nearby shop ensuring that our cocktail experience wasn’t ruined. After our meal from a local restaurant we returned for more drinks due to the first class service we had received previously, wouldn’t hesitate to recommend to others due to the warm welcome.

Didn't eat but good bar, super busy so hard to get a table but great atmosphere and selection of beers etc. Definitely would go back, the food looked good but didn't have time.

Decent wee spot to meet friends. Had some great cocktails and a sharing platter of their loaded fries. Nice and busy on a Saturday afternoon but service was still good

Visited for dinner tonight lovely staff and atmosphere actually stayed the whole night instead of moving on... have given 5 stars because it was deserved and will definitely be back. Only negative thing was nachos not hot enough and cheese not melted and equally the same for burgers......they had been sitting and came out too quick after starter and def not hot enough but didnt want to send back. 10/10 for staff 😊😊

They do a lovely sharing nachos plater, 3 of us couldn't finish it 😋 and they have a good selection of beers

Always cosy no matter what time of that year. Service is always friendly too

Didn't have any food so can't rate

First visit to Brodies and what a great visit. From the minute we walked in we were made so welcome. We said we had to be quick as we were heading out to a show. The staff were so accommodating, extremely helpful and very friendly. The food was fantastic and the chef even altered one of the dishes to suit my wife who is vegetarian. This was as I said our first visit and it will be one of many. Can't fault anything. Thank you for a great experience and see you all soon

Nice spot to catch up with friends. Close to Queen’s Park, it offers all what you need: a good choice of beers tasty chips and a friendly and attentive staff. Recommend!

Good spot on the Soo Side... Comfy atmosphere

Went in after a walk around the park with my wife. I had the Special a German style sandwich on gluten free sour dough with a stein of beer, which I swapped out for a pint and some fries, my wife had a chicken salad and a virgin mojito, the sandwich was fantastic way above what I was expecting, we were very pleased with the meal and the service, I finished with a whisky of the month Tamnavulin with a piece of ice it was brilliant, 2 thumbs up.

One of the rudest restaurant experiences I've ever had. My friends and I visited Brodies last Saturday in the late afternoon after a walk around the local area. We went into Brodies after 5pm, where the bar/restaurant was only around 20% full (if even that). The lovely staff member who greeted us said, because it was so quiet, we could have any table we like, as long as we vacated by 19:30. We explained we would only be in for around 30-45 minutes and that we were just in for one drink as we were just wrapping up our day, which she said was fine. The staff member happened to point out one booth in particular near the door, so we sat here. The bartender gave us our drinks, and was also pleasant. However, around 30/40 minutes later, a different staff member (female, light blonde/white hair - unsure of name) came over to the table and asked if we would like another drink. We said that we were fine as we were heading soon. She did not reply, and lingered for a few seconds, but then left - we didn't think anything more of it at the time. A few minutes later, this same staff member (likely a manager if I were to make a guess) MARCHED up to our table and rudely interrupted our conversation to say "guys if you're not having any more drinks, then I'm going to have to ask you to leave as you're taking up this table" in quite a rude and abrupt manner. The tone, the attitude and the march over to the table were not necessary. We were not sat there for hours (and even if we were - this is not how you treat anybody). We were there less than an hour, and even then - we were told the table was free until 19:30 (it was not even 18:00 at this point). To add insult to injury, after leaving, we noticed half of the restaurant had free tables. So the issue was not us taking up a booth / table, or that it needed to be cleared for another group - her issue was clearly just that we weren't ordering a second round of drinks within a time frame acceptable only to her - because otherwise, she would have said "hey guys, we need this table for another group, but there are other tables available". If we were staying longer, we would have more drinks. Having said that, even if we weren't, we stated clearly upon entry that we were just wanting one drink and we were just finishing our catch up, and this was deemed fine and that no tables were required until 19:30. If there was any issue, this should have stated to us upon entry, and without being snapped at by a rude manager before 18:00 (an hour and a half before the tables were needed). In fact, the staff member that welcomed us reassured us that there was no rush, and we could take our time and just relax and chill. It's a shame that this staff member, as well as the bartender, were so warm and welcoming as well as friendly – as the last staff member (again, we presume a manager) badly let them all down as well as the establishment. It was appalling behaviour - and even more shocking if it turns out, as we suspect, that she is one of the managers or team leaders. Horrible, horrible attitude and a complete failure in customer service skills 101. I will not be visiting Brodies again, nor recommending it to anyone (in fact, I'll be telling people to steer well clear). Extremely disappointing.

Place was quiet and we were quickly seated and served. Ate our mains. Finished our drinks. Saw the staff all standing as if hypnotised by a large party that had come in after us. Sat with our dirty plates and empty glasses. They stood at the bar staring at the larger party. We sat. And sat. And eventually gave up all idea of pudding and another drink or any further service, put our coats on and went to the bar to pay.

Good choice of beers food excellent

Was in Glasgow for the Scotland v Republic of Ireland match at Hampden Park, and decided to go for something to eat beforehand. Had arranged to meet friends near by, so thought I would grab something to eat first, and Brodies Bar and Grill is somewhere that I have wanted to try out for a long time. Nice lively atmosphere to the place, and was not all that busy. Grabbed a table and ordered a beer and a Double Bacon Cheeseburger, which was ready in no time. Very tasty, and great staff who are happy to chat with you. I will almost certainly be back again in future when in the area.

Very nice and clean pleasant staff good selection of draught beers, food a little expensive for me tho but very good

Drinks are fairly priced and the food looks fantastic!

Said the lunchtime menu was finished at 1.15pm although we had been given the menus.

Nice wee pub, great atmosphere and food is brilliant highly recommend.

Good food, good service and good beer.

Nice to sit outside here and it’s close to a lot of stuff too. Drinks are nice but £6 for a pint of Moretti is a bit steep

Outside area is great when the weather is good. Recently moved to table service which is a big improvement. Food is alright, kitchen struggle when at capacity

Food was lovely but their online menu is out of date. We booked specifically because of their vegan options and the vegan member of our party was very disappointed when she couldn't order the meal options she was expecting.

Great place to stop for a drink or have a lunch.Dog friendly and right next to Queens Park.

I don't normally write reviews & certainly not poor ones as I try to support local business. However, our experience fell far below expectation. The service was dire, long wait to be served, no salt/pepper at/brought to the table, no checking in to see how the meals were received nor asking if we enjoyed our meal at the end, staff continually chatting at bar and ignoring their customers. My meal was nice, but my family member classed her meal as 'a dogs dinner' and had to move the plate away due to the foul smell. I see reading the other reviews that this has happened many times before to other people and wish I had read the reviews before I went as it ruined a family get together. We had made it clear at the sitting that we intended two courses but there was no follow up for dessert. We ended up requesting the bill and left. It was so disappointing, significantly overpriced for quality, and we do not intend to return nor could we in honesty recommend it.

The staff were lovely, and were very accommodating with my ridiculous keto diet requirements.

Lovely food and service was good aswell.

Great place on the corner of Queens Park. Dog friendly and has a range of food and drink. Great spot to meet and enjoy the sunshine into the evening.

I should preface this by saying I have visited Brodie's on a handful of occasions before and I have never experienced it as particularly "child-friendly" however my experience today has left me angry and needing to air my views. I will never be back. I visited here on an impromptu basis with 3 friends, my husband and 3 children (a 6 and 5 year old and 18 month old) on a Friday evening, around 6pm for a couple of drinks. As the sun was shining, we sat outside, however as is typical in Scotland, the heavens opened and we sought shelter indoors. This is where it all went wrong. We sat down (it was approximately 6.45pm at this point) and decided to order some food for the children. The waitress communicated in a very blunt and hostile manner that as we had children with us we must vacate the premises by 8pm. We entirely understand that there are rules regarding minors in licensed premises however the way in which this was communicated was unfortunately very unfriendly to say the least. Our children were then treated as a complete nuisance for the next hour - they were actually quite well-behaved... There was one staff member in particular who had a bad attitude but there was a general vibe about this place and there were no other children present - this should have been a clear sign. In fairness, the two young men behind the bar were very friendly, as has been the case in the past. If you have a dog then you will be made welcome here. Parents of human children should avoid. I was the only Glaswegian present in the group (my husband is French and our friends are Spanish, although all have been living in Glasgow for 10+ years) and I felt embarrassed that this is how we were treated in my home city. If you live in/are visiting the Southside with children then I would recommend Church on the Hill and Oro.

Fabulous food couldn't fault it

Great food, drinks and staff. Consistently good service. Best wee pub in the southside. Has a great beer garden which is always a sun trap on warm and sunny days. Would highly recommend

Nice place to sit outside and enjoy a few drinks. Didn’t have food but menu was varied and alright priced. Dog friendly inside too.

The cocktails seemed a bit lack luster and not the quality I wouod typically expect for the price. The staff seemed friendly, however our wait staff didn't seem to have much experience and instead had headphones in so it was hard to get her attention for second/third orders. On a positive note the atmosphere was cozy and calm and I had a pleasant evening.

First time ever in Brodies First 2 Drinks I asked for 😮 Sorry wee don't have that 😡

Visited on a Sunday afternoon with a party of 4 and restaurant at around 50% capacity. Drinks order was taken and delivered,then food order taken, around 20/25 minutes our food was served minus a side dish. This was pointed out and another drinks order was placed, we were told that it would be rectified. Second drinks arrived minus 1 & still no side order. I can appreciate maybe one thing going astray , but not two.

Friendly staff. Nice decor and ambience. Good food.

Great drinks and great service even though one of the staff was a but grumpy with rolling eyes.

Very friendly service as always. Food is delicious and the frozen blood orange margarita they'd just made fresh was amazing.

Great food and very child friendly

I am sorry I could only give you 3 stars as my chicken parmigiana was burnt around the edges of the chicken, quite disappointing. I did complain but nothing was said about it. I felt the staff were not interested.

Lovely food and friendly staff. Great outdoor seating area in this lovely weather.

Cracking burger and very friendly staff. Will definitely come back!

Friendly staff, lovely food and great outside seating. Definitely recommend this place to anyone

Disabled access was ok nice atmosphere nice decor. There wasn't a huge choice on menu but everyone was able to order from what there was. Food was lovely nice and hot with good portion size. Toilets were clean staff were friendly and helpful

Friendly bar with a good atmosphere. Will try the food next time. Staff nice.

I am quite the connoisseur of fish finger sandwiches, however this was the best I have ever had. The chips were freshly cut and freshly cooked. The cocktail was 👌👌👌 no complaints! The customer service was also top notch (I like food better than people).

Very chilled atmosphere and good quality cocktails. Looking for a chilled place to chat and maybe have a bite to eat this place is good.

Amazing food menu and great atmosphere. Loaded fries are a winner

Nice ambience even though it was quite quiet. Friendly and efficient service and good covid measures. Burgers were very tasty and served with lovely fries. Pretty good value for money. Will visit again.

Very enjoyable evening. Reasonable menu choice, and plenty of beer options!

Good selection of drink and nice place

Up .market bar. beer and spirit selections . Good on 1st visit, when it first opened . Prices dearer than other pubs near by Now 2nd visit couple of drinks ,fish and chips very good .menu mains not large selection. But good at this trip

Been here quite a few times for a drink since last summer..the place has benefited greatly with adapting... staff are all great. Always friendly n helpful.. food is a good selection the burgers are popular.. a real nice gem for the southside.

Excellent Chicken Parmigiana in here! Lovely surroundings & good music 😘👍

Lovely evening and great service

Nice place. Popular bar. Beer is mainly larger or craft IPA, would be nice to see done real ale.

Situated very close to Queens Park, this venue is the beautifully refurbished old Shimla Pinks asian restaurant. A friend and i went for a late lunch soup and Sandwich option. The sandwich was very nice indeed. I had a club classic while my friend opted...
