Kitty O'Shea's in Glasgow City

Natalia was so good to us!! Great for some live music and dancing!!

Rampant republicanism loses a star from this staunch bear. But good nonetheless

The night out in Glasgow is not truly finished until a trip to Kitty's!

Amazing place & amazing music from live band

Ww had a good night. There was a singing on who was really good bar staff were also very nice we will be back

Desde el momento en que llegamos tuvimos un servicio de puerta increíble y la seguridad era preciosa. La vez que entramos fue una experiencia brillante, incluyendo el servicio de bar que fue rápido y se aseguró de que todos tuvieran una pinta. Mis amigos y yo tuvimos la mejor experiencia y la mejor noche que vamos a volver, pero solo una cosa que necesita es los taytos originales no la versión británica que necesitan los irlandeses

Great experience, I will definitely go back next time that I am in Glasgow.

Great experience and live bands

Easily one of the best pubs I’ve ever been to. Great pints and staff! Not to be missed while in Glasgow

Visited on Tues night. The place was chock a block with Celtic supporters. It's a Celtic pub for sure, and they were showing the Celtic/Bayren game live. Service and staff were nice. Would go back, but not on a football night. Recommended

You are legendary!!! We had a cool time!! Live music, good drinks, great people!! Celtic's cool stadium!!!💪🏼💪🏼 Greetings from Munich

Fantastic!!! We were drinking beers, they were all very young. Very good live music!!!

Great Guinness, great live music and friendly bar staff

A regular haunt for when I visit Glasgow really friendly atmosphere with good music and good beer. Great for watching sports and you can book booths where you have your own TV screen as well. Live music and bar staff are great

Kathleen provided excellent service, great patter and perfect guinness and great looks

Went n midweek. They don't do tennets walk out

Great craic and brilliant music

The bar staff were lovely and the drinks were great, but there was a guy who touched me at the bar and made me super uncomfortable, but couldn’t report as there were no security around upstairs. I also had an issue with the attendant harassing me in the toilets, but when I made a complaint online, Kitty O’Shea’s handled it and spoke to the external company.

Great boozer. Love music, great Guinness. Lots of TVs for football etc

I attended a show on Saturday night with friends and after the show we decided to go to kittys for a couple of drinks but when we got there a bouncer told us that we were not allowed to enter because two of us in his words were “far too drunk”. We went for dinner and had a glass of wine each before the show. We tried to explain this to the bouncer but he would not listen and became verbally aggressive and disrespectful towards us. We were very disappointed as we heard it was a good bar. It’s a pity one ignorant bouncers opinion and attitude can ruin a good night out.

Lovely bouncers and even better cooks. Would give 10 stars if possible

Paid £160 for a table of four for Hogmanay and turned away at the door for ‘being too drunk” when none of us were!! Bouncers really verbally aggressive with one of our male friends and verbally abusive and rude to the girls as well. Would not reccomend here at all!! Shocking experience which we had paid and planned for the bells!!!!

Teníamos un teléfono en nuestro grupo y el portero Michael era tan servicial y tan amable y realmente nos ayudó y era tan encantador cuando entramos por primera vez

Kaela served us and was so lovely, very helpful

Bouncers are a disgrace. Witnessed an assault on premises last night by door staff. Violent and overly aggressive with what looked like well over a dozen punches thrown on one male. With another pushed to floor aggressively and then held back. There was no discussion prior to this between the parties with the bouncer seemingly erupting. Our group of 8 were absolutely shook by the incident and raised it with staff who brushed it aside at the time. We all left shortly after as we were concerned for our safety. This is not the fault of all the door staff but one dangerous individual bouncer. Other bouncers had to then act on their colleagues crazy decision. If there was an issue to be dealt with, which didn’t seem to be the case and blown out of proportion massively, there is certainly better ways to deal with the situation as door staff. Hope this gets looked in to, as further down the line I worry this individual causes serious harm to someone. As regular customers we would now think twice about returning if we noticed he was on shift.

Absolutely appalling service from two girls behind the bar. So rude, you’d think they weren’t paid to work here. Took our drinks order with a sour face, placed the card machine down (not facing me - didn’t even say how much) and stared at me and said “you need to pay me”. The manager then followed up asking “what’s the problem”. Your staff are the problem that’s what. Rude young girls

We arrived at opening time (around 3pm) so it was basically empty when we were there initially. Service was good to begin with but struggled a little when it began to get busy later on during our visit. I believe it's open till 3am and there is live music, however there was no live music obviously due to our early visit. Overall it was ok and worth checking out if you're nearby.

Lively place, live music. Hard to get a table oreven a seat. Service good.

Fantastic little bar with live entertainment it's been one of the few bars we have gone back to each time we are up there. Lovely friendly staff and they do table service. Great gem of a find

Great city centre pub.Live music.

Nice place to chill and relax with your friends

Good Irish bar Lively on a Friday night with live music

Honestly hate leaving reviews but the bouncers were shocking here. Avoid where you can.

Guinness very nice although, id prefer the website price at £5 instead of bar price £5.50, are the bar staff on the take?

During a short stay in Glasgow with a friend, we decided to visit Kitty O’Shea’s for a drink around 22.30 The place had a fantastic vibe with great live music and an inviting atmosphere. We had a wonderful time, but by 00.15 AM, we decided to call it a night. We had left our jackets draped over a chair, but to our shock, my friend’s jacket was missing when we went to retrieve them. We immediately approached the security team to report the issue. To our relief, every single security staff member was extremely understanding, empathetic, and genuinely helpful. They brainstormed solutions with us and went out of their way to assist. At one point, someone who appeared to be the manager or head of security even walked my friend to review the CCTV footage. Thanks to their efforts, they managed to locate and return the missing jacket. We were deeply impressed by the dedication and professionalism of both the security team and the bar staff. The level of effort and care they showed was truly exceptional and far beyond what we would have expected. To put it simply: in the Netherlands, we doubt this kind of attention and effort would ever have been given to such a situation. Massive respect and compliments to the team at Kitty O’Shea’s!

Crackin bar. Great live music and the Guinness was class. 👌

one male had approached me and after i rejected him he became aggressive, i had then informed both of the bouncers on the door of the situation and took them inside and showed them exactly who the men were, the bouncers then took them outside spoke to them and let them back in, I then re approached the bouncers to ask why they had been let back in and my friend who had been standing next to the door since i left had heard the bouncers say that they had been let back in as “they come in all the time”. which i thought was ridiculous as i had brought up the situation in the first place and it was deemed as “okay behaviour” which is nothing short of appalling. Would not recommend as the pub as a whole have no interest in protecting women.

Kitty O'shea me han hecho sentir irrespetuoso como nunca antes. Los porteros fueron la razón clave de esto, ya que me hicieron sentir inhumano, indecente e insignificante. Entiendo el deber de los porteros de mantener una ubicación decente, pero su actitud no fue más que vergonzosa. NUNCA volveré a este horrible lugar, espero que las ratas cuenten sobre su lugar.

Excellent bar to see live music

Great venue great staff highly recommended

Cosy place - lovely places to sit for a drink. Great staff and a nice atmosphere.

Se dirige aquí después de un evento de trabajo para tomar unas copas antes del tren. Fue golpeado de nuevo, ya que uno de nuestro grupo fue considerado “demasiado borracho” - que solo había tomado 2 o 3 bebidas, tenga en cuenta que este era un evento de trabajo! Una cosa es un golpe de vuelta, pero este portero procedió a llamar a nuestro amigo “be*tch”, nos insultó, llamó a nuestro amigo gordo y le dijo que se “jodiera”... ¡arruinó una buena noche y arruinó un buen pub! Absolutamente impactante. Nos dijo que su nombre era Scott, pero no estoy seguro de si esto es cierto o no ... no nos dijo su apellido. Extremadamente poco profesional, grosero, desagradable y agresivo. .

He estado un par de veces antes. Traté de ir esta noche después de un evento de trabajo con un grupo de 4 , todos tomaron un par de copas pero nadie borracho o desordenado, nos reunimos con 2 x personal de la puerta grosero y arrogante, el primero que nos conoció era calvo, originalmente dijo que estábamos demasiado borrachos y que no nos dejarían entrar esta noche, luego le respondí que teníamos un par de copas para una noche de trabajo y nadie estaba demasiado borracho para que nos dejaran entrar. Él respondió que estábamos demasiado borrachos y no nos dejan entrar a lo que dije que apuesto a que hay mucha más gente dentro que está más borracha que nosotros... Entonces el joven y grosero portero amateur dijo que estábamos demasiado borrachos y que no nos dejarían entrar. Luego llamó a uno de los miembros del partido “gordo” cuando él mismo está un poco en el lado grueso, luego le dijo al mismo miembro del partido que se “jodiera” y que era un “suplicante”. Antes de ir detrás de los numerosos otros empleados de la puerta allí. Creo que el trabajador de la puerta, mayormente poco profesional, se llamaba “Scott” - tenía un tatuaje en el ala detrás de una oreja y un corte de pelo un poco tazón. Nunca he visto más personal de puerta poco profesional, especialmente siendo un cliente que regresa antes y nunca tuvo ningún problema. En general, esto me ha pospuesto el regreso y creo que osheas gatito debería re-evaluar su política de personal de la puerta, especialmente con la cantidad de nuevas críticas negativas con respecto a estos. Absolutamente desastroso, si pudiera revisar una estrella 0 * lo haría.

Lovely place, the first time in this place, music was great, staff quick service and friendly.

Turned up soba with my 3 English friends on a Friday nite, small man on the door says, sorry not tnite. 2 men 2 women. Don't expect much.

Approached the door staff to enter the bar on a Saturday night around 10pm, we were 2 couples in our 40’s. We’d had approximately 2 drinks each before arriving, nobody was drunk or disrespectful, just 2 couples on a night out. Unbelievably rude and unpleasant doorman informed us that we couldn’t enter because one of our group was too drunk!! Absolute joke. A bad advert for Glasgow which is normally a friendly and fun city. Would not return or recommend.

Good music. Good Guinness Top night

honestly one of the best and most lively pubs you can find in Glasgow! never disappoints

Disgusting rude & physically abusive door man. Pushed my 20 year old daughter who is tiny & called her horrible names Should not be in the job & let’s hope my husband doesn’t find him. Sort it Kitty O’Sheas !

Awesome place,great live music,i would say the best in glasgow, but do expect to queue at the weekend

It's difficult to get good staff these days

No longer serve food but music and atmosphere great

Very nice bar, music is nice and it has really good vibes

Never had the food, but had the Guinness, that was 10/10

Just in for a couple of beers on a Friday night. Very decent.

Staff are on the ball in here! Well done, super efficient at the bar and table service also, well done! Makes such a difference, live music was great great atmosphere! Had another great night in Kittys Sat 27/9/24, great atmosphere thanks to Papa Shandy and the drams band, really fantastic, great singer and the violin and banjo players played the hearts out too, they were fantastic. Another band on after them too not sure if the name, they were also brilliant, the Guiness in here is perfectly poured too, will def be returning

Best Guinness in Glasgow and great atmosphere for Celtic games. Staff are all very friendly. Always the first stop when leaving Central station.

Dreadful bouncers, aggressive and argumentative FAKE IRISH BAR! Avoid at all costs......the Louden Tavern is more Irish than this waste of time & space.

Drove up from chesterfield on a business trip today, 1st visit to Glasgow an on a positive vibe it was amazing.. Food was really good at the Italian barloros, bars were more than welcoming... Went back to the hotel bcos my friend has a medical issue so me and my friend wanted a couple more beers. Walked to this so called Irish bar and could tell straight away we were not locals!!! Wasn't invited in and the bouncers reason is bcos we were to drunk!!!! I'm writing this 10 mins from leaving there so if you struggle reading this then I must b toooooo drunk!!!! Absolute joke!!! Nothing wrong with me and my friend,,,, brought here on a recommendation of a millionaire that is from Glasgow and invited us up.... Definitely will not recommend this as a place to go as Ur face needs to fit,, not Ur wallet which ours could hav quite easily benefited this place... Big negative review from me on this so called Irish bar...

Great live music and friendly staff. Good variety for drinks and it has a nice layout.

Lovely bar with good entertainment and reasonably priced pints,though you would need to look at some of the door staff you're employing. Rude and aggressive!!

I drank a Guinness and the two types of cider there. The beer is relatively tolerable (I'm not a beer fan). The ciders available are very good. Not too tart, but relatively sweet. The strawberry cider, shown in the picture, is the sweeter of the two. There is a pleasant atmosphere. There is usually live music in the evenings.

Clearly, looking at previous reviews, this place has a recurring issue with the bouncers. Our experience was much the same as many others. Disgusting behaviour from the door staff. We will not be back and will not be recommending to our friends and family. If you are looking for live music I would go to the many other fantastic bars in Glasgow who have live music.

Visited this venue at weekend. Live music was outstanding. Lots of people enjoying themselves and dancing. Nicola in security was great at handling the crowds so nice to see security staff being able to handle a crowd and still have a laugh with the customers which is rare these days. The customers interacted with her and gave her respect due but only because she handled things so well. Would definitely return.

Awesome evening in here on a Saturday night. Really busy, a great atmosphere, and good music.

This place feels very similar to Way OConnors with lots of nooks and hidey holes. Unfortunately the corner we chose to sit smelt badly of sewerage but was good to have a private little den. Service was fast enough but some staff seemed like they didn't want to be there. Toilets were good.

Brilliant experience here. Highly recommend

A bar in Glasgow, and in general in Scotland, where there is atmosphere and obviously it is an Irish pub! Live music continues all evening until closing, we feel good there and Guinness for £5! Wow! You can mingle with the crowd as much as you can stand in a corner, it's very good.

Great atmosphere but the star of the show is NICHOLA who works in security. She is an absolute gem who looked after us and took our group under her wing. Nichola made us feel so safe and welcomed we wouldn’t have had the great night we had without her. SHE DESERVES A BONUS!!!

Thursday night live music with good beer. First time in the upstairs area.. Last time I was in it was still a basement bar but has expanded and is much bigger and better.

Was here on a Sunday afternoon. Was very good. Went to the football, came back and was rejected for wearing the same thing I had on earlier. Apparently the rules from the idiot bouncer. This was a Sunday night btw. Unreal. Won’t be back

Booked a table online for Saturday night at 8.30pm arrived on time and the usual with the stewards we are full up told them I’ve got a table booked they went to check and to no one’s surprise they said they had no booking under my name even though I had an e mail stating enjoy your evening and my name Manageress arrives and tries to make out I must have booked the wrong venue which I didn’t really pathetic organisation all told.

Door man wouldn't let us in because my friend didn't understand him. Explained we were from liverpool and he wasn't bothered.

Floor manager was extremely rude for no reason

Decided to go here with my boyfriend and sister as it was recommended by friends and seen it was advertising an after party for trnsmt festival. As we were walking up the bouncer was already looking at us up and down, when we arrived at the door he asked where we had been and we said the festival and he laughed and got his face quite close to my boyfriends face and would not let us in. Absolutely no reason for bouncers to be so rude.

Love the new look Kitty's, extra space is amazing. Staff were absolutely lovely and so friendly.

Main manager was clearly on substances. Other staff were sound enough. Clearly not owned by real Irish people none of the spirit or charm. The fruit in our drinks was obviously out of date and stinkin. Souless establishment. Singers nice tho.

I’ve been coming here for several years, always had a pleasant night. Near the end of the night, a female became rather rude and started causing a scene. My brother and I were then manhandled out the premises by the security team. This was completely unprovoked. An absolute disgrace. Unfortunately the bar has went to the dogs since the upper level was opened. The footage will no doubt be on cctv. Absolutely pathetic. Glasgow city centre is a joke of a place these days.

Dropped on this bar chance and I love it! Live music, decent beer, good service, "traditional" surroundings and sensible prices. 👊👌😁

Beer is good, live music 7 days a week is excellent and you can bring food from other shops in since they don’t serve

I have been to Kitty O’Sheas west end a few times now with friends and family - only got good things to say! Never had an issue with bouncers/bar staff always relaxed and welcoming. Live music is always excellent and place has a great atmosphere on a Friday/Saturday night. Pub also plays live football. Would recommend for a fun filled night as opens late too 👌🏼

Good selection of drinks and beers

Great live music venue predominantly Irish but they play other music too. Good selection of drinks whatever you drink and great service.

Was the old drop bar . Great set . Good service. Plenty tvs for sports

Amazing live music late night on Sunday. Highly recommend with friends and family. Locals very friendly, might get some dancing if people are up for it.

Staff are exceptional, patrons are so friendly, I will be back

Great pub, great atmosphere and live music.

Great pub with mostly good live music. When it gets busy it becomes a little difficult to get drinks.

Qiiet today because of the weather but always enjoyable

Kitty’s westend absolutely fantastic manger and doormen first class on derby day great atmosphere and well organised- get yourself down here ☘️💚

Avoid if possible, more enjoyable pubs close by.

Lovely place to start our Saturday pub crawl, likely to be our last stop as well. Great pint and music spot on.

Great pub close to the station live music and good Guinness

Chris and Sean were class, would reccomend.

Great place was a tad busy with it being St Patrick's day

As per previous reviews, the bouncers are the worst in the city. In the space of a few minutes saw a guy not let in, even though he had a booking! They were rude and threatening to everyone, some poor guy get rejected for wearing rugby kit! Even though the six nations was in their bar showing Scotland! They said it was full but then let in a group of girls who had no booking and had not gone out for a smoke etc. They said it was too full and tried to organise a queue but made a complete arse of it. After a few mins, took our business elsewhere and had a good afternoon in a few of the other pubs in the city. These guys are clueless and need to sort out their bouncers.

This place is a joke, shirt and linen trousers apparently don't meet their outfit criteria... Door clowns

Guys at the front door were good. Let me and my friends in. One of my friends got too drunk and fell asleep. The staff were good at escorting us out in a polite and respectful manner.

Friendly doormen, attentive staff so served quickly, live music with a good atmosphere. All great

Popped in on Sunday afternoon. Great live music and TVs turned up loud in the interval so we could follow the Celtic / Livingston Scottish Cup game 👍 Friendly staff, loads of comfy seating and excellent choice of drinks. Very it's rockin' at night so we'll definitely be back!
