Five March in Glasgow City

Exceptional food and service. One of the best restaurants in Glasgow for sure, can't recommend highly enough. Thanks to the team for making us feel so welcome.

May I know the brand of the olive (probably green) your restaurant serves? I found it particularly to my taste. Thank you

Excellent food and service yet again from the wonderful staff at Five March. Menu always delivers, fantastic dining experience in Glasgow

Didn’t catch our waiters name last night but he was lovely and helpful. he told us they had a new chef and I’m delighted the food is as great as always. Can’t see past the sourdough bread and amazing roast potatoes but the cauliflower and sweetcorn salads were standout. Overordered and they were so helpful to package up the leftovers. Thanks for a fab night and well done to the new chef

My favourite restaurant in Finnieston / Charing Cross. Consistently delicious food (chicken burgers and satay cauliflower tonight to die for). Lovely and efficient service. Really nice cosy atmosphere (and you can sit outside in summer too).

Queríamos algún lugar a poca distancia de la arena Glasgow OVO. Vi este lugar a 15 minutos a pie. Wow impresionado por los platos únicos del menú y la excelente cocina. Gran servicio amable y buena selección de vinos. Su postre de tarta de queso es impresionante.

Totally delicious home made food , lots of delicious small plate veggie options and I had tartar trout that was so delicious. Friendly welcoming service. Highly recommend

Gran personal y servicio en un ambiente relajado encantador. La comida era fantástica - ceviche de trucha y mango pescado al curry y las patatas eran increíblemente buenas.

Lovely place and great food, nice tables it too close together but always ABIT cold when I come !

Deliciosa comida, cocteles y servicio! He estado aquí varias veces y siempre ha sido un placer. El personal es siempre muy acogedor e informativo sobre el menú. Probé un par de platos en mi última visita que eran muy frescos, sabrosos y bien presentados. Las bebidas para acompañar eran muy iguales. Lo recomendaría y planeo volver pronto.

Excellent well balanced food that is exceptionally tasty with a chilled atmosphere and attentive staff. Loved it!

Great food, friendly staff, they have some vegan food options

One of the best in Glasgow at the moment. Get the dessert wine back in stock please :).

The food is absolutely delicious and beautifully presented. We were advised that dishes come out whenever they're ready, however the delay between dishes was quite long and we were finishing one plate before the next arrived. It would be nice to have two at the same time so we're not just eating broccoli on its own at the beginning. We got a big pile of potatoes right at the end, which were AMAZING, but it would have been better if we'd been able to enjoy them with the rest of the food and not just on their own. That is my only complaint really! Staff are lovely and friendly. Definitely recommend!

Delicious. All of our selections were very tasty. Service was friendly and our waitress was attentive. Nice atmosphere.

Food was really good and well presented. Server explained how to choose from the menu and gave us some good tips on what to order. Cabbage was delicious as were the potatoes, pork belly fried chicken and beef. Would definitely eat here again.

I've eaten here many times over the years and it's always a delight. Delicious food with a refreshing variety of flavours and ingredients. Proper sharing plates, not small plates, especially if you get the fried spuds with garlic aioli! It's extremely good value and the atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming. Lovely big space that doesn't feel crowded and a nice sunny outdoor area.

Excellent restaurant, de très loin le meilleur de notre séjour en Ecosse. Une cuisine inventive délicieuse, délicieusement parfumée et très copieuse. A des prix très raisonnables. Et l'accueil est sympa. Bref le top. A ne pas manquer à Glasgow.

Food, service and atmosphere all excellent

Obsessed with this place since visiting a few years ago, it just never disappoints and is always first on the visit list when in Glasgow. Food was stunning as always, heritage carrots, spuds (famous worldwide I think), hispi cabbage all highlights but all of it was just CHEF'S KISS. Highly recommend the pisco cocktail too, incredibly moreish. Really good for vegans, veggies and carnivores alike, we both found plenty of delicious things to eat. Staff absolutely on point too, knowledgable, friendly, great service. One of the best meals out we've had in years!

Fantastic evening with friends and dogs, delicious food and outstanding service, what more could you ask for? Every dish was delicious, attentive servers who gave us guidance on ordering and drinks, could not have been better. Highlight for us was the attitude to the dogs - some places claim to be dog friendly but don’t do much to make them comfortable. They listened to our request for a table with a bit of space and made them feel welcome, not in the way. Cocktails by request were the icing on the cake!

Best restaurant in Glasgow. The trout this summer was a top 5 dish of my life

Pleasing to the eyes and tastebuds. Not only a very aesthetic atmosphere, the food was absolutely delicious. Service was warm, knowledgeable and with wonderful recommendations. The citrus cured ocean trout was my absolute favourite and will now live rent free in my mind until I come back.

The food, the service, the quality. All of the food is amazing! Can’t wait to come back.

Amazing restaurant. They charge very reasonable prices for the high quality and large portions served. I loved the mackerel (tonight’s special), the fish curry, and roasted spuds. Other favourites are the hispi cabbage, pork belly, and panisse. So far the best meal I have had in Glasgow. Special shoutout to the waiter for exceptional service. Did not catch his name but it’s the guy with the specs and cool tattoos. He made sure we had a great time.

Great food and great service with a diverse menu to suit everybody. Small plate sharing which allowed us to enjoy a a varied range of tastes. Would highly recommend.

RUN DONT WALK! We came here for dinner last night and had a truly brilliant experience. Not normally one to write reviews, but this place deserves it. We ordered 7 dishes between us, 6 out of the 7 were perfect, we gave some feedback on one of the dishes which we were disappointed in, more because of the contrast of how good the other dishes were and the staff went above and beyond to compensate. Far more than was necessary, they removed the item from the bill and then sent out a few deserts to try, which was such a treat! We wouldn’t usually order desserts but they were divine! 10/10!

The pork belly with whipped feta and watermelon is one of the best dishes I’ve ever tasted. Run don’t walk.

Un restaurant qui passe un peu inaperçu, pourtant au pied de notre hôtel. Réservation vivement conseillée. Accueil sympathique, surtout quand on arrive à comprendre le scottish accent... La carte propose un bon choix de bières locales et de vins internationaux. Côté solide, peu de plats, ce qui est bon signe. Le principe, très tendance, est au partage. Les recettes donnent envie tant elles regorgent d'originalité. Une fois servis, zéro déception. C'est vraiment très bien cuisiné. Notamment le panisse et le sandwich poulet (avec gingembre, coriandre, menthe..., un régal). Les prix sont abordables. Dommage que la salle soit bruyante (les Écossais prennent plaisir à parler fort et rire à fort déployée). Bilan : une excellente adresse.

Just missed brunch but enjoyed the small plate menu. Great service and banter to boot.

Delicious food, served quickly. Staff welcoming and friendly, had a great meal :)

One of my favourite restaurants in the West-End. Food is delicious and staff is lovely.

Enjoyable meal. They even catered to my picky eater. The prices were good. I wasn't blown away by any of the dishes but overall it was yummy.

Exceptional lunch. Understated elegance. What a find! The pork belly melted in my mouth and the spuds were perfect. I will be back!

One of the best meals I’ve had in recent years. We had five plates all of which were unique and tremendously flavorful. I thought the roast cabbage was particularly good for what it is, cabbage. My only minor gripe is that the dessert options didn’t have the same flair as the main courses but even so, I recommend everyone visiting Glasgow dines at Five March.

We visited for lunch on Saturday. What a find. First visit and we can't wait to return. The flavours were amazing, from the gorgeous juicy olives to the panna cotta - make sure you leave room - it's incredible. The trout was a feast of flavours in our mouth. Five March has a lovely atmosphere with great decor. The front of house staff were very knowledgeable and friendly. Thank you for a fabulous relaxed lunch.

Friday night was a shade mad, and very noisey, however service was very friendly and fine. The "Spuds" are a must, my Pork OK, Chicken bun always pleasant. My draught beer, forget the name, was great. Problem was when the side door to outside seats opens/is left open if you are next to it you get the draft. Some seating not so comfortable.

I had some friends over visiting from Belfast who work in the restaurant business and had heard of Five March so we booked in for dinner. Such a delightful evening from start to finish. The place was busy but the vibe was relaxed, the service was great, and every single dish we ate was delicious, I’m not a sweet tooth but the desserts (that I had said I wasn’t fussed for) totally won me over! We had a couple of beautifully crafted cocktails after dinner too.. An all in all win, and so happy to have impressed the visitors! Thank you, we’ll be back!

Lovely staff and very tasty food. Zingy pickles and kimchi, the steak was beautifully done. It was all great. We have agreed it’s been one of our fave in Glasgow. Cocktail no.7 (cognac, vermouth, amaro) was excellent. What really won me tho is that our lovely waitress packaged the left over mackerel up separately for my cats 🥹😻 they LOVED it 🥰

Had a lovely experience at the restaurant today. The food was phenomenal; light, creative and full of flavour.

Local, high quality food, extravagant and interesting staff,

Booked on the back of good reviews from various sources. Sorry but found the food far from the standard that the fine Glasgow food scene serves up at many restaurants. Would like to be more positive but can’t be.

I was given a voucher for Five March and had an excellent experience there today. The restaurant is basic in decor but welcoming. Staff were friendly and helpful with suggestions. Menu is based on small plates. Each dish ordered was flavoursome, presented well and delicious. I would definitely recommend it.

Now my favourite restaurant in Glasgow. Used to be Stravaigin but their vegan options are lacking and extortionate for what you’re getting whereas Five March are doing great-sized sharing plates, with loads of veggie, vegan or meat/fish options so something for everyone and they’re very reasonably priced. Love the atmosphere and everything about this place. If you haven’t been already then what are you waiting for?

Have been here time and time again - consistently delicious and they truly understand how to bring out the best in flavours. Cocktails are delicious too! Highly recommend if you haven’t been. Small dishes to share - would probably suggest 2-3 per adult.

Brilliant food and service. Bonus tip - ask why it’s called Five March…

The bar staff are without a doubt an incredible and talented team here. Every single cocktail was delicious, creative and just beautiful to look at. Would happily return just to sit at the bar and go through them all :) Staff were mainly unobtrusive and relaxed. The only issue being the younger woman with the short brown hair and silver earrings(?). It's a new experience to have someone serve me whilst silently hissing at me through the entirety of their face. I've worked within hospitality for 10+ years and found your contempt borderline repellant. When paying the bill we almost tipped twice as I hadn't noticed there was a service charge already on there. No problem with this. Of course the team deserve a fair tip for all the work they've done and the invisible magic that goes on behind the scenes. My issue is that it was clear we didn't know it had already been added (we were a table of 2) and naturally I would expect staff to be transparent about this when it's obvious we haven't looked at the receipt prior to you taking our payment. You certainly made zero attempts at building rapport with us (even remaining begrudgingly sulky and solemn when most people ask how the food was) so a double tip really shouldn't have been expected. Food was fantastic, thoughtful and plentiful. Thanks for what was largely a really delicious experience :)

I'm extremely peaky when it comes about food, especially after I come back from my holidays in Italy, I can easily burst into tears if the food is not at a high standard. What can I say about this restaurant? The food arrived, I tasted it and I couldn't stop smiling. Omg, amazing was reductive to describe the dishes we had. This is officially my favourite restaurant in Glasgow and from now on I will dine here every time I come back from Italy to feel less homesick. The service was also really lovely, the staff was welcoming and the service quality was great. Awesome wines, cocktails and even better food. I couldn't have asked for any better. We will definitely come back and I couldn't recommend this restaurant enough 🤩

Food was incredibly tasty and the service was the perfect balance of attentive without being overly-eager. Thank you! We’ll be back! ❤️

Second time I’ve been here now and it was better than the first. Great casual and relaxed service from the guys and food was lovely

we went for dinner last night at five march and had a fab time. food was all delicious, really interesting flavour combinations and decent sized portions for a small plates place. the serving staff were very helpful and friendly: a couple of us had dietary requirements (vegan/allergies) and the staff were super accommodating and provided an annotated menu with options crossed out or suggested substitutes. couldn’t fault it- we will definitely be back 👏🏼

Venue is nice and have that cosy feel. Service was good. We are a group of 15 people and they managed to serve every dish right without the need to asked “who ordered x y z”? Christmas menu food was good, enjoyable and tasty. We booked for 17 and 2 can’t come due to sickness. Staff said that will be full charge, but when I asked if those two person’s food will be served for table to share , they said no . I asked if just two desserts can be served , the answer was still negative. I found this unusual . Fair enough if food /ingredients are prepared and they need to charge for no show. But if full charge then what’s wrong with serving the food that got fully paid for? Not to say at £55 per head with service charge it is £60 per person cost ? If they only charge part of the cost for no show then I can understand why not provide food. But full price but you don’t get the food is probably not quite fair. All in all , food is good but just be careful with group booking to avoid no-show cost. Probably better to book conservatively or let people in your team know in advance that they are still expected to pay full if no show .

The food was delicious and so fresh. The menu options were great too. Sadly we were quite let down by the service, as the waiters barely came to our table and it was really difficult to get them to come over. We were a table of 5 so expected a slightly better service as everything else was so great.

Amazing! Great food, drinks & service.

Everything from the entry way to the staff team was superb...the food was absolutely banging, the lighting, the atmosphere and the dry but gentle banter from the guy serving just doubled my experience 👌 Absolutely top quality place for a munch...bravo 🙌👏 Ps my photo isn't great as I was focused on eating it 🤷‍♂️

What a cracking restaurant! A very warm welcome, great friendly service, lovely atmosphere. Beautiful cocktails. Food was so good!! Great menu, waiter guided us on how much to order and was spot on. Honestly one of the best restaurant experiences I can remember. Thank you for such an enjoyable evening.

I would never have known about Five March if it hadn't been for a review in The Times which placed it in the Top 10 of Glasgow restaurants. One word encapsulates our experience: flavour. From our cocktails before our meal to the veggie tapas, the chicken and the ice cream. Great find!

First of all, I will openly admit our party of 7 were 12 minutes late for our 6.30pm booking. However, that being said I have never, in ANY restaurant, ANYWHERE, experienced a “countdown” when dishes are being served to the table. The dining experience at Five March is contemporary sharing, so dishes come as when ready. (On their timescale, not ours) Nothing new here, granted, but also very enjoyable and sociable in the right environment…..BUT not when the serving staff put down each dish and tell you the time left you have to eat them! The whole sociable, dining, sharing and enjoyment of some exceptional food is very spoiled and is incredibly rushed with staff laying down dishes saying “30mins”, “20 mins”, “15 mins”…..REALLY!?! Many similar style restaurants in Glasgow are elevating the small plate dining experience to a much better level overall. We certainly won’t be returning to Five March which is sad, as the food is sensational but being force fed into an eating time slot is not. (Incase of any doubt. All dishes were ordered in one order. We were not offered any coffee, dessert or after dinner drinks as our time was up. Bill was concluded and we were gone by 8.25pm)

The food was average compared to the price. Nothing really impressive or sophisticated. But pricey. The wine was bad but the coctails were nice. Good ambiance. Staff was friendely but was holding a clock over out heads! When we reached our 2-hour slot they repeteadly reminded us to go! Wont go again!

One of my favourite places to dine in. The small plates are to die for, and the cocktails are well curated. Can't fault the service one bit and when made aware my partner and I were both Vegan, the menu was explained well and made clear as to what was available to us (also what could be changed to be made available). If you haven't been, you really must, well worth treating yourself to!

usually a favourite of mine but recent visit left a lot to be desired… maybe a new chef ? do we really need to be putting that many sesame seeds on EVERYTHING ? all dishes were very under seasoned. fried chicken was chewy and far too sweet in my opinion. perhaps made a few wrong choices as some dishes on the menu sounded lovely so will come back and try again in a few months.

The food was really delicious and original. I went with friends and we shared all the starters and the fried chicken. Every dish without exception was so tasty but the potatoes were incredible. Make sure you have room for a pudding as the banana one is an excellent sticky toffee and is accompanied by sesame ice cream which may well be the best ice cream you will ever eat. On top off all this the service was lovely, friendly and attentive. This is a great place which we are already recommending to everyone we know.

This is an absolute gem of a find. We went after reading a fantastic review in The Times and it is every bit as good as they said. The food is original, exciting and really delicious. The plates are for sharing and everyone we had was amazing, all the starters were great but the potatoes were incredible. Make sure you save room for a pudding as the sesame ice cream might be the best thing you eat for a very long time. The service we received was also lovely, they couldn’t have been friendlier or more helpful. We have recommended this place to everyone we have spoken to since.

Visiting family in Scotland I had no expectations of anything more than standard fare and I couldn’t have more wrong! Walking through an anonymous entrance into a delightfully welcoming space already I knew that this was going to be far more than average. The staff were all friendly, charming and helpful in navigating the tasting menu that promised so many interesting flavour combinations. We watched with fascination as the head chef created his plates with such artistic attention to detail that our levels of anticipation were heightened… and the food did not disappoint - each beautiful plate offered stunning and intriguing tastes that sparked lively appreciative conversation. The morning after we are still talking about it - it was truly a wonderful experience with some of the best food that I have had for a very long time!

Off the beaten track, hidden gem with unexpectedly delightful and unique sharing dishes. I am rarely surprised by restaurant food but this was definitely a cut above my expectations. Highly recommend making this your next destination for relaxed dining in Glasgow

Fantastic evening , food really lovely , lovely atmosphere, definitely recommend here .

My favorite meal of my trip (including Paris). The coley was perfectly cooked and I could drink a bowl of the broth. The Caesar, and baba ghanoush were also lovely.

Fantastic spot loved the variety of dishes.

Excellent quality food and wine with friendly service. All the dishes we had were superbly cooked and full of flavour. One of best meals out I have had in a while. Very well worth a visit.

One of the best places to eat in Glasgow

Wine is expensive! A bottle of basic house red £30! Then there is the ‘service charge’ 10% . Sneaked onto bill. Service was friendly but slow and not worth 10% charge. Overall experience was that the food was good but not exceptional and it felt like I had been ripped off by cost of wine and service charge. Would probably not go back.

Five March was a lovely dinning experience with friends. The staff were attentive and helpful. We ordered 10 dishes and each dish was different from the next. A few of the memorable dishes were the polenta cubes, mackerel and trout (melted in my mouth). Plus 2 bottles of a beautiful white Tempranillo. Highly recommend.

Beautiful food - friendly staff - great meal. Like a taster menu to share. Delicate fresh tasting and fun.

Great flavors, friendly service; highly recommended

Creative delicious small plates. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Service was impeccable too. Definitely recommend!

Great food and drinks. Friendly staff. Tried pigeon for the first time and actually enjoyed it. The Sunday Share is a pretty good deal for 2.

A great find, look forward to returning soon.

We had - Olives - Sourdough & Whipped Butter - Fried Spuds - Pork Loin - Trout Tartare - Burrata - Hierloom Tomatoes - Baklava All delicious with the real highlights being the Burrata garnished with smokey oil, walnuts and grapes as well as the Pork Loin and Trout. We really enjoyed the bottle of White Rioja too. I would have preferred lower lighting, more candles and music a little higher for the atmosphere.

Enjoyable small plates, will definitely return

Great find! Minimalist decor and fabulous sharing plates with lovely friendly staff. Great mixture of clientele too . All in all feels a very relaxed, friendly vibe in which to eat stunning food. Their Fried Spuds with aioli may not sound exotic but they are just so moreish! Slightly pricey but not in a Michelin star bracket thankfully but food does certainly compete with a certain well known Michelin star restaurant in Glasgow!

One of the biggest surprises that the city of Glasgow has prepared for us this year. A friend of mine uses the expression "fireworks of taste" for such a menu, which, together with the pleasant service and the correct timing of the appetizers and meals that we shared on the advice of the waiter, brought us a real culinary experience. Definitely a run-up to the Michelin rating, and in a moderate environment and space where it is definitely worth going out for food with the best price/performance/experience ratio.

everything was 10/10. the mackerel & sea trout in particular. absolutely stunning. staff so friendly & knowledgable. everything came out at a really nice pace & the cocktails paired nicely with the meal. thanks

Nice staff, tasty food. Mackerel was small but delicious! Hot dog was a disappointment, tough rubbery texture and bun was dry. I've had better at the cinema. It doesn't fit with the menu, I think you should remove it and replace it with something better.

The dishes were a delightful mix of flavors and textures that tantalized our taste buds. The staff suggested we order five dishes, which I felt was too much, so we ordered four instead. However, we found that the portion sizes of the main courses were quite large, and as a result, we almost couldn't finish the last plate.

Best food we’ve had in a long time! Pork loin was incredible! Satay cauliflower amazing! Five march spuds always a winner! Got all 3 deserts as they all sounded amazing! And they were! Can’t wait to go back!

Thoughtful, inventive, and delicious modern regional cuisine, in a simple and casual atmosphere. Additionally, this was my third time back over a span of two years, and have not ever been disappointed. Worth a visit if you are in the area.

A local friend from Glasgow took us there. And she is definitely a local because the place was super super good. Every dish we tried was unique and tasty, even something basic as potatoes. The drinks were really good and different.

One of the best yet oddest(interesting) dining experiences I've ever had, but loved the combination of trendy styling and food combo. Food style was a series of small plates to make a sharer style meal. Staff we're great and attentive, the cocktails were very good... and importantly the food was cooked to perfection. Must admit I did find the style of the dishes a bit awkward (maybe more me than the restaurant). However, was very memorable and think everyone needs to try this place at least once.

Stunnin night! Gorg food, banging drinks, with wholesome and knowledgeable service. Conor looked after us and he was a dream. I cannot wait to go back.

Amazing food and great service. All staff are well informed and its a lovely space to dine. Thanks.

My second visit, again was fantastic. Food was delicious, especially the veg dishes. Good offering of cocktails or soft drinks. Desserts and coffees were lush. Great service and a fair bill.

my favourite restaurants in Glasgow!! Amazing food, drinks and service. Always my first to recommend for friends coming to Glasgow.

Used to be a nice food experience every time but not last time. Food was stale and poor quality. The staff was well trained to respond “we’ll let the chef know” when I made them aware of my disappointment, probably not the first time they have this feedback! Not to mention they brought out 10 dishes to the table within 15 minutes, trying to squeeze them all - is this a restaurant? haha. Don’t take late bookings if you rushing to close! extra star for the sourdough bread

Decor feels a bit like a cafeteria, super pretentious menu, glacial service that pushed way too hard to upsell us to 5 plates when 3 would have been plenty and 4 was too much. Food tasted Ok, can't say I would return. Would have been annoyed had I opted for that fifth plate. A touch over hyped, try 111 by Modu instead, cheaper and better tasting small plate menu.

This review is for Morning Glory Great western Road. Why are they not on trip advisor separately. Looking for early morning coffee They open at 8am. Dragged my husband over fromHillhead underground. Great menu the overnight oats seemed popular, but, I went for the bacon...

Went on a Friday night, place was busy but relaxed and there was seating inside and outside for the brave souls. Seats were right out of a school assembly hall but surprisingly comfortable and it immediately felt like the best kind of hidden gem that...

Decor bit like dinner school but busy. Food was good. We started getting hassled out 20 mins b4 table was due back. Paid £32 for bottle of white wine but had to leave some as we ran out of time😪

We had such a good meal here tonight! The staff told us it was a new menu and we absolutely loved it. We had the spuds (obviously), cauliflower, blue cheese salad, lamb and pork dishes. Then for desert the chocolate moose. It was delicious and we loved the vibe too. Staff were so attentive and super friendly!

We went with the fish and recommendations by the staff, and we were not disappointed. Even the pork belly, which usually isn't in our top dishes, was excellent. The first was also very good, but we would've preferred a different citrus (though this is mostly a taste preference). The staff was also very nice. Multiple options in a nice atmosphere. Would definitely go again, on a date or with friends. PS: the burger looked fantastic.
