Meat Bar in Glasgow City

My husband and I went here for food before going to the concert hall. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming. We were looked after very well and the food was delicious. We had the Chateaubriand and it was perfectly cooked. Even the tomatoes were grilled properly ( this is a bugbear of mine when tomatoes are barely warmed rather than grilled ) We rarely go out and so this was a special treat for us and that being said I had a gorgeous apple cocktail ( I can't remember the name sorry ) which I recommend x We watched the burgers coming from the kitchen and they looked amazing and so a return visit is definitely on the cards! Thank you Meat for a delicious, pleasant dining experience xx

Our friends booked this venue for us during a trip back to Glasgow and it really delivered. Great food, great cocktails, great host - just the perfect Saturday evening and I’m craving the steak again now that I’m writing this review. We had a booth booked and our host did a great job of making us feel welcomed and well looked after. We had a full selection of dishes including steak, burgers, fries, onion rings and much more and it was all delicious. Top marks for the Meat Bar….

Finding this restaurant felt like finding a gem in Glasgow that we visited twice. Thanks to our great hostess Kelly who made sure we got exactly what we wanted. The chef was extremely talented in using high-quality local Scottish ingredients to make delicious food.

Hidden gem in Glasgow Very delicious and quality meat cooked to perfection, attentive stuff, we had special requests which were accommodated 100% Thanks to Kelly and the chef for making our experience unforgettable Definitely will visit again

Richard and Kelly (and the chef) were fantastic. Warm welcome, beautiful restaurant, great food and drink suggestions, and the steak was perfect. Haggis bon bons not to be missed out on. Thank you for a lovely experience guys.

Best steaks in Glasgow. We’ve tried sirloin, fillet, t-bone and cote de boeuf. All perfectly cooked to our request and very tasty. Paired with great selection of wines, the white Malbec in particular we had on two visits! Service if very friendly but not intrusive. Five stars all round.

Excellent meat! perfect cooking. Very friendly welcome. And cocktails, at the top! but vegetarians won't be left out either because the halloumi burgers were excellent. A very good address in Glasgow that we recommend.

Prenotato sul loro sito. Personale molto gentile e gradevole locale in zona centrale. Mangiata ottima insalata di pollo ed hamburger altrettanto buono. Per mangiare carne è il luogo adatto. Costi adeguati

We were in Glasgow for my partner's birthday and booked here. We werent disappointed, lovely quirky and cool place. The two staff on duty were lovely and very friendly and interactive. The food was amazing, garlic bread with cheese and honey is a new favourite of ours. The meat is so fresh and clearly well looked after, but the salad served with it made the meat taste better too. As I booked for her birthday dessert even arrived with a candle. Well played. Three courses, with drinks under £90, an absolute bargain. Please open in Middlesbrough!!!! Thanks again, we loved it

Food was excellent, as were the cocktails and the service. Andrew was specifically great. Great music and ambience. Had a lovely evening

We had a reservation here for our dinner club friends. We meet up every few months and try different restaurants. We were greeted immediately opinion arrival and shown to a large table for 6 in a recessed room. It was lovely but a bit cold. We had a round of starters to share and a main course. We had two bottles of wine and a couple of beers. Overall including a tip it worked out about £50 per head. The service was prompt and the food was very good. I’d recommend this place.

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Meat Bar, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The restaurant's ambiance is warm and inviting, with a modern yet cozy decor that sets the perfect tone for a relaxing meal. The staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive, making sure every detail was perfect. I ordered the steak sandwich and Caesar salad, and both were simply delightful. The steak sandwich was a true highlight – the beef was cooked to perfection, tender, and bursting with flavor. The bread was fresh and perfectly toasted, providing a satisfying crunch with each bite. The sandwich was generously portioned, making it a fulfilling and enjoyable meal. The Caesar salad was equally impressive. Crisp, fresh romaine lettuce was topped with a rich and creamy dressing that had just the right balance of tanginess and creaminess. The homemade croutons added a delicious crunch, making each bite enjoyable. Overall, Meat Bar exceeded my expectations with its exceptional food quality and impeccable service. I highly recommend trying their steak sandwich and Caesar salad – both are excellent choices that showcase the restaurant's commitment to culinary excellence. I will definitely be returning soon to explore more of their menu.

Everything was incredible. Richard, thanks for making our experience amazing! We appreciate the amazing food and the personal food! We’ll be back!

Amazing food (steak and others, try the garlic honey bread!), great atmosphere, fantastic cocktails and exceptional service! I would give 10/5 stars if I could.

The ribeye steak was perfectly cooked and delicious. It came with big side dishes, so you do not need a starter actually. The service was great and very quick. Nothing to complain about.

Wonderful steakhouse in Glasgow. The steak is amazing and delicious. This is must to go restaurant if you like to try the authentic steak in Glasgow. The restaurant is very popular and strong suggestion to make the reservation 2-3 days and set up the dinner time as early as you can. Otherwise, a lot of great food will be run out after 7:00PM.

Great little place away from the hustle and bustle, fantastic steak quality and very friendly service. We ordered 2 rib eye steaks with peppercorn sauce, mash, rosemary potatoes and onion rings. Staff were great with knowledge of gluten intolerance. Will definitely be back and recommend to people!

Awesome meal at the Meat bar! The place is a bit out of the center but well worth the small walk. The mac and cheese and the French dip were especially delicious and service was friendly.

Super friendly and prompt service, the food was excellent and the price was right.

An excellent meal and attentive service. A great dining experience.

Pretty decent place for steaks though I'm sad their dry-aged ribeye was sold out. These are thin steaks, not the thick ones Americans may be used to from steakhouses, and with no crust. The steaks came with salad (very good) and a roasted tomato/mushroom but additional sides/sauces could be ordered seperately as in a steakhouse. We didn't have room for those so don't know much about them. Drinks were also tasty and reasonably priced.

Food and service was really good but I did feel it was on the expensive side when compared with competition. The restaurant was so quiet for a Saturday night and it really affected the vibe, and the overall value for money, which is a real shame.

Great food, great staff and a lovely atmosphere.

Fantastic steak , well worth a visit

Best steakhouse in Glasgow. A smaller, better version of Miller & Carter but much cheaper. The food was absolutely unreal. The cote de boeuf, which was on the bone was absolutely delicious. Went amazing with the smoked garlic & herb sauce 🤌🏽 the roasted potato’s were superb too. Great choice of drinks, including a great cocktail menu. Food was polished off with a salted caramel cheesecake which was delightful. As good as the food was, the service was even better. Always check in on us, the staff had a great knowledge of the menu & drinks and all their recommendations were on point. Couldn’t not have hoped to a better Saturday night meal. Will be back for sure. Great location of the restaurant too with street parking near and a big Q park too.

Fantastic meal tonight, we took advantage of the 50% off steaks after 9pm! Rib Eye on the bone was delicious, we opted for the skinny fries, onion rings and Mac And Cheese as sides! Thoroughly enjoyed our first visit. Music was spot on and so were the staff! Thank you all! Highly recommended!

Lovely food and attentive and chatty staff

"John Conner" was our server and he honestly was incredibly! Great attitude and helpful advice. Recommend the perfect cocktail each time! The food was spectacular as well! Can't wait to go back here again!

A hidden gem. We had a lovely meal here for our Anniversary. The restaurant was cosy and welcoming. The staff were friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. We will be returning and will be recommending.

Stumbled across this venue online whilst searching for a steak restaurant. Can’t fault this restaurant, decor is great, staff were amazing and the food was delicious. Will certainly be going back!

Came here with my husband last week after great reviews on trip advisor. Not busy so service was good and quick. Haggis bon bons were delicious. Never tried them before. We both then had steak with garlic and rosemary cubes potatoes. Very nice. Would recommend and not too expensive. When back in Glasgow would return. Wine accompaniment was the nicest (white) and husband enjoyed the red.

My wife and I normally head to a Chinese restaurant during our visits to Glasgow. On this occasion, the restaurant was closed for the Chinese New Year, and my wife suggested the Meat bar given the reviews and its location close to our hotel. We were not disappointed. A cosy, spotless, and intimate restaurant. The menu on the day and the quality of the food was top notch. Staff were attentive and friendly, and service was with a smile. Can't recommend highly enough. Definitely be back.

It was my first time here and my meal was excellent

An amazing restaurant with exceptional customer service, all staff were lovely and the food was sensational. Thoroughly enjoyed my birthday here!!

Can't believe the difference in this place, used to come here so often for meals and we're very excited to bring our kids before we went to see Shrek. was friendly and we thought oh good we should be in for a nice meal, felt welcomed and settled. No kids menu so asked if we could have one, got flung a folded a4 piece of paper with some 'kids' options on it, hand written or should I say scribbled - chicken goujons, burger, Mac n cheese, and steak which if I remember right was maybe around £20. Anyway, all ordered kids having chicken goujons and myself and hubby shared pickles and wings then one double dip and trailer trash! Massive portions, enough to put you off a main meal, which I wish we had been informed of. Chicken goujons were huge, very thick batter but looked good. Fried pickles same thick batter, no taste of pickles, wings undercooked and no taste of salt and chilli. Burgers arrived and both sent back after the first bite, Burger it's self was overcooked and dry. Non-edible. Cremated..had seen buns plated in the pass while we were eating our starter. Manger stated that yes the chef agreed that this was due to the quality of the meat?? So why serve the burgers if they know the quality of the meat is not up to standards. Offered a replacement but said no due to timing with show, had purchased and opened a bottle of red so thought we would quickly ask for the haggis fritters to finish off our wine, big mistake...same batter, thick and full of grease Asked for our bill, and when asked if we had enjoyed our meal we obviously stated the above, rightfully so our burgers were taken off the bill but considering we had other complaints it was very badly handled. Place was dead, no atmosphere and staff rude at the end knowing they had not given good service. For a city centre 'meat' bar the owner/manager should be very disappointed. We will not be returning, but for your business to survive I would suggest a new meat supplier, burger maker, chef and front of house!!

Tasty well seasoned steaks, great service, really friendly waitress, 100% recommended. Nice pint of local stout also.

Lovely steak, great service and a nice setting.

What a fantastic restaurant, warm friendly welcome. The steak was excellent, Rib-eye medium to recommendation with rosemary sautéed potatoes and pepper corn sauce was the best I have had in a long time arrived in no time and was succulent without losing any heat. Staff are fantastic, great selection of drinks too! Highly recommend!!

The food here was fantastic. Perfectly cooked steak and the sides were also brilliant. What really stood out for me was the service however. Kelly was our server and she was just so lovely! She was so apologetic when they ran out of the starter I wanted (which wasn’t anyone’s fault of course!). Can’t wait to go back.

What can I say. The steak platter was generous and delicious, the vibe was great and the people were lovely. Highly recommended spot to dine and to drink! Cheers Herda

Just fantastic, great food and service. Just watch what you're ordering drink wise, as they charge a lot for cans of beer...

What a lovely place - good service, reasonable prices for the quality and amazing food…. We had ribeye steak on our visit and it was wonderful. The sides were well selected and perfect pairings with the steak. We were so happy with the place that we returned for lunch a few days later and had great burgers.

This is a gem of a place. You have to walk down to the restaurant. We were greeted warmly. The sever was excellent took time to explain everything. The food was first class. I highly recommend this place if you like steaks.

Amazingly well cooked pieces of excellent steak. Service is friendly and efficient. I tend to go for the Rib Eye, always cooked beautifully, I have to be careful not to devour it all before pouring on some of the delicious, creamy peppercorn sauce. The desert are lovely too, the cheesecake of the day never disappoints. If you fancy a decent well cooked steak I recommend here

We had a wonderful experience at MEAT. With good interaction from our server Maisie my wife and I tried the special offer and were not disappointed. All aspects were well cooked and full of flavour, the side are good particularly the onion rings. Excellent cocktails to start and finished with cold beer from the good selection available. We shall return!

Skinny fries were AMAZING. Burger has its own place in the great taste realm. DELICIOUS all around!! Deep fried pickles were great. Breading was great with the added blue cheese spread.

Very good restaurant, great staff and the food was worth the cost. Couldn’t ask for anything better ☺️

Amazing restaurant. Friendly staff. Delicious food. Call ahead and reserve for larger parties. The fried jalapeños were crispy and had a small kick. The ribeye special came with onion rings, potatoes, and a pepper sauce. There is a good drink menu. My go-to spot any time I'm Glasgow. A short walk from the train station. I recommend this place to everyone.

Really nice vibe in the place when you go in. The staff were very attentive as soon as we went in the door and we were shown to our table. The food was lovely, across the 4 of us we had sirloin steaks and tomahawk steaks with sides that included onion rings, triple cook chips, macncheese and peppercorn sauce. All cooked to how we ordered our steaks and the sides were lovely. We had a bottle of the Govnor red wine which we had all tried before but it was a lovely bottle of wine. Reasonably priced for a steak restaurant. Emelie our waitress was lovely, explained everything and looked after us well.

Had a great nite and the food was cooked to perfection

Wondered why on a Saturday night in Glasgow, when every other bar we visited was mobbed, this bar was empty. After getting 2 pints of beer and a small bottle of cider, the bill was £22.50. That explains it!!

Incredible steaks and sides with lovely, friendly service. Really nice restaurant with a great vibe.

An amazing restaurant experience! The clue is in the title... with a meat-focussed menu delivered brilliantly

Went with my fiancée on 19th October to start off my Birthday weekend. Amazing stakes and easily the best service I have had in a restaurant in years, if not ever!

Best steak I've ever had! Seriously great food, staff were really friendly, willl definitely be back!

Unbelievable meal. Fantastic staff, Great atmosphere. Highly recommend!

The best food I had in Scotland!

Excellent food, drinks, service and music. Recommend the prawns, chicken wings, and steaks (300g sirloin was perfect).

Sophie on the bar had amazing energy & great Customer service, will definitely be back for the half price cocktails!! Thankyou ♥️

Had high expectations of this place however we were so let down. The resteraunt was empty and cold. The food was awful, steaks were chewy and one was a fillet, how can you get a fillet wrong! The potatoes and chips were dry yet greasy! I have so many questions as to how you can get these things so wrong! There was a sad little mushroom under a tomatoe that looked like it had been sat on for 40 days, god love it! It was the size of a 50p piece, so must have been a button mushroom rolled out! It was a very poor meal and most of my steak ended up chewed up in a napkin, travelled a long way to be hugely dissatisfied and disappointed! Waitress was very nice and took the meals of the bill, waiter that brought our meal looked miserable. The tap water was delicious! So if you like a nice glass of water please go!

Lovely wee bar with great food, great staff and a nice atmosphere.

We used to frequent another steak restaurant for years but felt that the prices were going up and the offerings smaller and poorer quality. We've now been to Meat Bar many times and the experience has been consistently great!

This place has got it absolutely right. Lovely atmosphere, friendly staff, reasonable prices for deliciously prepared meat, sides and cocktails. I had ribeye on the bone medium rare and partner had t bone. One of them came with fries, both came with peppercorn sauce, we had sides of frickles and rosemary potatoes. Everything was delicious, well cooked and care and attention put into the food. The staff care about the customers and the food, it’s a winning combo.

Luogo bello e accogliente. Il personale é disponibile e gentile, tant'è che quando ho riportato la mia allergia grave sono stati disponibili e pronti a pulire e disporre il tutto per me, ed é molto raro. Cibo buonissimo.

Perfect in every way. T bone was fab , perfectly cooked , top quality and so tender, melt in mouth. Beers and dessert was also top notch. Finally ambience and service on a busy Friday night was exceptional. In summary, best steak house I’ve been...

Had a lovely meal at The Meat Bar. The food was excellent and well priced for the quality. Service was very good, made to feel welcome. Will visit again on our next visit to Glasgow. Highly recommend!

Genuinely friendly staff, excellent food and a decent pint. Bacon is now my favourite ice cream topping too.

Best steaks in town. Much better than Miller & Carter by far. 👍

RUN do not walk! Noticeably the best meal I have have enjoyed in quite a while! The food and service were outstanding. I ordered the bone in ribeye, Cesar Salad, mash potatoes and gravey, with a large glass of Pinot Noir.... absolute PERFECTION!!! Almost forgot the chocolate ice cream for dessert!

Came here again and got the steak special. This time it was 300g ribeye with peppercorn sauce, salad, onion rings and garlic and rosemary sauted potatoes for £36 each. Food was perfectly cooked. The service could not have been better. We had the friendliest server called Kelly. I can't recommend this place enough. My fiance and I just love it.

Exceptional food quality and amazing service. I have been living in 5 different countries in the past 10 years, tried different top tier steakhouses like the STK in Toronto, and this place as a medium priced steakhouse is simply wonderful. The price-quality ratio is very high. I ordered a T-Bone steak with Garlic Butter sauce, it tasted wonderful and the portion is huge. The lady who served me was very kind, attentive and polite, even though I was sitting at the corner. I am in Glasgow for transit. Next time I will bring my colleagues and friends to pay a visit for sure.

Travelling and had followed on socials for a while , absolutely phenomenal steak , hands down the best iv ever had , everything had so much taste

I was visiting Glasgow and asked my hotel to recommend a great steak place. Boy did they deliver! The Meat Bar was absolutely incredible. Great atmosphere. The staff were super friendly and the food was to die for. I was in town for a few days, and had originally intended to try a new restaurant each day. But I loved the steak here so much, I ended up eating here every day. Would completely recommend!

Great atmosphere and warm welcoming. The food was delicious. Highly recommend for two the “steak platter”

Lekker eten en vriendelijk personeel. We komen zeker terug!

Lekker gegeten en vriendelijke bediening

Outstanding! The food is always perfect, atmosphere is always on point. Great cocktails. One of my favourite places

All about the meat. Choice of cuts available cooked however you like it. Fries, sweet potato fries, onion rings, mushrooms, mash. Lots to choose from. Steak was perfectly cooked. Will come here again and would recommend for steak lovers. 😋😋

I have been attending Meat Bar for some years now. It has been a staple location for a great steak. Unfortunately, last night the restaurant didn't love up to par. The steak, chips and starters were lovely. The bread was a bit stale and cold....

My boyfriend and I love this restaurant. This was our second visit and won’t be our last. Cosy atmosphere, amazing food, and lovely staff. Prices are to be expected of a quality steak restaurant and it is definitely a value for money experience. Thank you...

Found this place online wasn't sure what to expect, we ended up being very happy we picked this place 😊 we went as a group of 4 and all enjoyed our steak! Mine was the nicest I have had in a while! Fries, sweet fries, wings and extra condiments where all very nice. Great atmosphere! Thankyou guys for a lovely service, If we are in the area again would definitely re visit

Absolutely incredible food , steaks were cooked to perfection and sauces were great , sides complimented the steaks very well , all in great value for money. Staff very friendly and very hospitable and knowledgeable , big shout to Kelly who went above and beyond with service ! Highly recommend

Food was absolutely perfection, had the best steak we have had in YEARS! Very accommodating, friendly and fun staff. The cocktails were beyond!! High quality food and service with great prices! Highly recommend!!

Cozy place , amazing food, unique cocktail menu. Friendly staff. I can’t wait to go again. ALSO they have seats at the bar . Huge plus if you just want a drink. Wish more bars had real bar seating like this one !

Very nice beef steak, good customer service

Food never disappoints Cocktails are delicious and a bit too easy to drink Staff are always attentive and courteous

Went for a family meal and wanted good food without fuss - team did not disappoint. Was just what we hoped for from the name. Would eat here again myself and would also recommend to others.

Excellent service, great atmosphere and delicious steaks. We were there for a birthday lunch and the staff went above and beyond to make it a great experience. Good selection of sides and a nice veggie option, which is rare for steak restaurants. Highly recommended!

Always fantastic, really tasty steak and sides, always fresh and never chewy. We come here for steaks quite often and it never disappoints. My husband always gets the biggest steak on the menu and he always devours it. Definitely a favourite for reasonably priced food.

I went to The Meat Bar for a birthday celebration and it was great. We went on a Sunday and with booking through the website gave us 50% off of our steaks which was a bonus. There was a group of 6 of us and we all thoroughly enjoyed our meals. Between us, we had a range of steaks, burgers and sandwiches which we all thought were excellent. The staff are great and check to see that everything was okay with your meal. We will happily go back and had no problems with our visit! Recommend for those who are looking for a high quality, nice meal that isn’t too expensive.

Me and my boyfriend come here more than we do any other restaurant in Glasgow! The service is always good and the food is amazing! The steaks are always cooked to perfection along with the sides and starters. The chicken wings are great and we...

My go to place for steak in Glasgow. It has always been a great eating experience. The restaurant itself is nice and cosy and the staff have always been very attentive.

Really nice place - cozy and good service. I has a t-bone, garlic/rosmarine potatoes and a glass of red wine and all of it was just so tasty!!!

Beautiful steak and lovely Green Lady cocktail. Will return when in area again!

Chateaubriand was excellent, staff were attentive and friendly. Great recommendations and the bacon ice cream, yeah bacon, was amazing. Will return once we've recovered.

Super food, super wine, and super service, perfect.

Best place in Glasgow for eating steak the food was incredible and the service was fantastic I’ll definitely be back

Really good place for a steak meal. 1st time I have visited here and will definitely be back again. Blew miller and carter out the water as that was our usual haunt.

Perfectly cooked juicy and tender steaks. Delicious even without the sauce. I forgot to ask for salt and pepper because I couldn’t stop eating :3 The sides were quite oily and heavy, but the green leaves, tomato, and mushroom were a good companion to the beef. Service was very friendly.

Great steak , perfect and very fast service ! Really enjoyed.
