Merchant Square in Glasgow City

Worth it to see some of the home made articles there.

Great friendly atmosphere. Not too expensive for city centre

Easy to walk around & window shopping.

Nice area for events and several eateries.

Restaurants with good variety, although average quality. The day I visited it was raining and the floor is wet due to leaks.

Used to be a lot better, but know it's not as nice. Also, to get to the toilets, you had to follow A4 bits of paper taped to walls and doors up some stairs and corridors, one corridor had very little lighting and was covered in graffiti.

We were treated quite shabbily by very abrupt bar staff towards the end of our evening in O'Neiils bar. Served a round of drinks about 11.25 pm , then basically hassled to move on.

Lovely but i feel underused refurbed part of glagow merchant city's old fruitmarket. Many restaurants have come and gone since its inception. Always nicely decorated at christmas Restaurants and pubs are expensive. 🥺

Lovely atmosphere and good for people watching 😁

Lots of restaurants and bars , a great craft market on weekends . Always buzzing

Great visit to merchant Square to see Patt selling his amazing fun birthday cards ❤ Such a happy place to visit ☺

Craft Fair on today, worth a look

Great experience with friendly staff.

It's been a while, but love this place. The bonus was there was a family event on fir St Patricks Day and I had late lunch booked in adjoining restaurant with friends. Time to watch the show and a visit to O'Neills

Great place for a drink,lots of history around it.

A good indoor area, with a good choice of eating establishments

Great place for drinks friendly atmosphere

Strawberry daiquiri were amazing, and so we're the staff 🤗

A fabulous indoor attraction. Craft fares at weekends all surrounded by good pubs and restaurants - all indoors. Passing through on a Saturday when the artisan's market was on. Great stuff.

On a very cold day was great refuge from the cold and a tasty lunch in O'Neil.. would be great on a night out

Fab place and the meal we had in Soba was amazing 👏

Nice but mostly overpriced drinks in the various hostelries.

It was like being outside, but inside. There were tables and chairs outside! In Glasgow! When I was young we called that an eviction.

Like a ghost town on Friday nights and I feels it could close down any day now. The hustle and bustle and lovely atmosphere is gone and it's full of empty units. A real shame

Nice place to enjoy a glass if wine. Good service.

Was a good experience, love the square

More closures than restaurants open craft fair consisted of around 4 stalls.

Went during the Christmas period - the markets with all the Christmas lights is such a vibe.

Booked for Christmas Dinner. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Surprised that most other places were closed it being holiday season.

Fantastic indoor market, with friendly vendors and a wide selection of crafts.

Went for drinks here for Feyenoord against Celtic.

There was a very nice craft Christmas Market, all the vendors were really nice and it was a very good oportunity to get gifts.

Brilliant place, great atmosphere and food

Disappointing that a few places are closed.

Had a tasty meal and cocktails at Bar28 food was excellent recommend it

This is one of my favourite places in Glasgow, amazing atmosphere and a really fun place to grab a bite or have a few drinks, can't wait to go back

Great when it's raining in Glasgow

Great atmosphere, friendly staff, clean environment, great food and great prices, the sauce for the mussels was beautiful and tasty and the roast was amazing. We will definitely come back 😊

Visited market after lunch at Table 28....bought 2 birthday cards from a stall and was given a free doodle of myself....lovely, friendly man.

Merchant Square is great for getting away from the hustle and bustle of Glasgow city centre. A quiet haven to have drink or something to eat in bar/restaurants such as the Metropolitan. A winner for sure.

We had a gift voucher for Metropolitan inside Merchant Square and couldn't be more impressed. The food is definitely pricey but the quality was amazing- I would really recommend the fillet steak. The entire Square has a great atmosphere and is a great venue to start a night out.

Yeah it was OK.. waited too long for food in my opinion..my friend had to send hers back cos it was cold...although I liked my sausages 😂.....won't be rushing back...

Not many stores when we visited

Great little craft market with a variety of products available, lots of restaurants and bars to suit all tastes

Quite busy but plenty staff on,promo shots were a hard sell. Bit pushy after been told no .

Typical Glasgow people make Glasgow. Ordered drinks that never came . It was like the Scottish climate Hhite

Places starting to close down and atmosphere not as 'buzzing' as it once was on a Saturday evening.

This upscale venue is a popular destination for restaurants and boutique shops.

Nice selection of bars & restaurants. Visited mid week so wasn't much atmosphere but I'm sure very lively at night & weekends.

Lovely big pub. Clean with friendly staff. Was on the expensive side but very good. Tried the pizza which was excellent.

Went for afternoon tea l have a problem climbing stairs but guy says follow me...2 flights he didn't even mention there was a lift😭 been there before and it was ground level. 😞

Great location everything you need around you

Great place with a variety of bars. Ideal for a catch-up with friends!

Had a lovely afternoon tea in the Metropolitan, staff were amazing from start to finish, even got us the lift as I am on walking sticks 👍👍👍

Really nice place and very cool in this heat.

It was good plenty of places to eat big TV to watch sports

Great ambience always worth a visit

lieu bruyant quand il y a monde

Good place to watch the football big screens everywhere 👍👍👍

Came here over the Christmas period when the market was on and as the city is so big there were two different ones but the music was nice and loud and they had themselves a great atmosphere! As this was Glasgow of course it was raining but this didn’t stop us! We got to see all the Christmas lights and the market and it was just a whole other experience and it was something I would always do whenever we go up to Glasgow.

A nice wee meal with my great niece, very tasty food, service was great

Great venue, love the atmosphere there.

Fantastic venue at any time, particularly on cold and wet days. There are bars and restaurants to suit all tastes. You can just sit in a warm dry place with a coffee and people watch! But best of all is the craft fair at the weekends, all the items on sale were made or produced by the stallholders.

It's beautiful, especially at night. The ceiling is a dome of twinkling lights that give a cosy welcome. There are a few delicious eateries, cocktail bars, and a great pub to watch the rugby or football and sample some Irish stew.

I've visited this place on a few occasions during work lunch hours and honestly I really like it. Around that time it's quite quiet but in a good way. Decent selection of food and drink to choose from.

Good place with some good restaurants

Good place to have a great time with friends and family and long lost friends from 45yrs ago and had a drink for absent friends are no longer with us R.I.P. Jim and Ricky

Great place for beer with friends! It’s a big place, lot on offer in terms of both beers and enjoyment!!

Visited a couple of venues on a night out. Great atmosphere

Great place with a good choice of eaterys, when we were there we were fortunate enough to also have a look around a lovely craft market and just to add to the occasion we also had our photo taken with a Scottish Town Crier. Brilliant day definitely will be back.

Great layout with some fantastic bars

Best place in Glasgow to visit for food and drinks lot's of places to choose from

El verdadero centro de la Glasgow de hoy es Merchant City. Su corazón es George Square, donde se pueden visitar las victorianas Glasgow City Chambers –gratuitamente dos veces al día–. Las arterias principales del barrio son Buchanan Street, Argyle Street e Ingram Street, que se llenan de músicos callejeros incluso en los fines de semana más fríos, como el de noviembre en el que estuvimos por la ciudad. Por cierto, si ves unos pequeños quioscos azules con tiendas de snacks o perritos calientes, que sepas que originalmente eran… ¡estaciones de policía!. La calle Ingram acaba en Royal Exchange Square, la plaza en la que se alzan la Gallery of Modern Art y la famosa estatua de Wellington con un cono de tráfico en la cabeza, convertida en uno de los símbolos de la ciudad. En Merchant City están también los antiguos almacenes de los Tobacco Lords, los comerciantes que en el siglo XVIII se hicieron ricos con el tabaco de las colonias, transformados en pubs y restaurantes.

Great for a night out. Service can be slow

That's great place, stalls for different things , arts , photography etc. And good no of restaurant and Bar !

Great place with many restorants and pubs sharing the indoor garden space. At times there are market stalls inside so it can get busy. Big variety of cuisines to choose from and Oneils open till late with good music, sports screens and indoor and outdoor area.

Was there at 3pm nearly empty 😳

Merchant Square is still as great now as it was 20 years ago. Some of the venues have changed names but the atmosphere that is created is electric. Eat, Drink, Dance, Socialise all under one roof. One of Glasgows best places hands down.

Went for a meal to Steak Cattle & Roll. Service was slow. Ordered steaks - veg & fries were hot but very disappointed in steaks as they were cold. Pointed this out to the Manager who offered replacement. The point being they should not have been cold in 1st place. Disappointing meal.

Quiet Tuesday afternoon Little atmosphere

I moved to Glasgow as a student and as I came I seen ppl here are very friendly and welcoming so is the city and the city is very beautiful and filled with places to vist

Lovely atmosphere great place for food and drinks.

Lots of great venues! Super loud on a weekend afternoon :-) but if you like that atmosphere, kudos to you! Across the street at the Mharsanta was more calming.

lovely place and lovely restaurant in there and some nice stalls

Génial pour passer un bon moment à recommander.

Plenty of bars too choose from enjoy food& drink and the atmosphere.

Lovely place to visit for food.and drinks not 2 expensive and very cosy 😊 😀 ☺

Good food great atmosphere. As its Glasgow City centre bring your own lubricant when your being shafted for parking charges

Great place for drinks and food. Good place for rainy days as it feels like you are sitting outside but actually covered in

Fantastic place to eat and drink. Loads of options. Fully recommended

Great place to come and eat and drink with a variety of quality restaurants and bars.

Was here as at TRNSMT love Glasgow and merchant city

Great to see Blackfriars open again.

On saturday ir sunday there is always something going on inside. Best to check the website what is on inside the square. If it is hot the place is cool enough... Loads of places to choose from for eat or a coffee. Different types of cuisine and pricing for everyone. Good relaxed atmosphere every where.

Party time , lovely food and atmosphere

Markthalle mit vielen verschiedenen Lokalen, sollte für jeden Geschmack etwas dabei sein

Lovely place for a quiet drink and food.

Der Merchant Square ist eine schöne kleine Markthalle mit offener Fläche in der Mitte und Restaurants/Bars ringsum um diese Fläche. Wir waren an einem Wochentag hier und es war nicht sehr viel los. Am Wochenende finden hier wohl Veranstaltungen statt und es gibt Live Musik.

Interesting set-up of different restaurants around a central area for entertainment.

cool place with different environments
