Stravaigin in Glasgow City

An absolutely wonderful dining experience. The food is phenomenal and worth so much more than the sum of its parts. Me and my partner had the pigeon & the beetroot starters, both were excellent and I’d highly recommend. The venison main was excellent and so worth the price. The staff made a relaxing but attentive environment and the decor is beautiful. This was one of the best meals I’ve had in years. Can’t wait to return to try more!

Lovely night great staff, so friendly and all recognised us from being in before and came to chat felt nice!

We were given a nice quiet corner near the fire. Then enjoyed Haggis beeps and tattles followed by a delicious dessert. What more could you want!

This is my favourite pub in Glasgow. The food is amazing and the staff are always polite and friendly. The atmosphere is cosy, relaxed and dog friendly… what’s not to love!

Always fabulous! Stravagin don’t ever change we love you!!!

Nice enough food, but very expensive. Staff were friendly but overworked, so we had to keep stopping them to ask for things.

We have an annual girls' Xmas lunch at Stravaigin and this year was just as good as previously. Food always lovely and the service yesterday was really great - thanks!

Had a fabulous meal here on a Sunday afternoon, the place was buzzing with happy diners and friendly and efficient staff. Interesting and tasty food, decent wine and cocktail list, comfy seating in lots of areas (mezzanine was really lovely). Great value for money, I will definitely be back the next time I'm in Glasgow!

This was our first visit to the restaurant and we were not disappointed...food,service and atmosphere were all great .we will definitely be back

Manager and staff kept a table for friends. No reserved times on tables. Bad customer service. Don’t go.

I went to celebrate my birthday and had a wonderful experience. The staff was friendly and helpful. The food was amazing (So good that my Indian friend said the curry was the best she’s ever eaten.) and they brought out a cheesecake to celebrate at the end.

Great food and service in interesting venue. Top notch

Had our wedding party in the mezzanine and the staff couldn’t have been more attentive, everything was perfect! Great atmosphere, the nicest staff and the food was amazing, as always. Thanks again, can’t wait to be back! <3

I was talking a friend there to celebrate her birthday and we had such a lovely time!! Staff were fab food was super- Loved it

Very cozy, nice, very attentive attitude. Cheesecake is amazingly delicious.

All very nice thanks. Service was excellent and friendly without being intrusive. Food was superb. Atmosphere was quiet as our party of 10 was almost the only customer…..this suited us as it was a reunion and we could hear each other! Many thanks.

Lovely magical atmosphere, friendly professional service, great wine list and menu.

Took international colleagues here for dinner when they visited hoping to shown them the best of Scotland and Stravaigin delievered. food was excellent, atmosphere was as excellent, staff were great criac. will be back for sure

Great service and great food, atmosphere friendly and inviting .

Best sunday roast in Glasgow IMO. Food was delicious and the service was great, staff really friendly and attentive.

Enjoy the Sunday Roast in a movie atmosphere. The welcome and treatment with the staff was incredible, attentive to everything we needed. The atmosphere was magical, our table was at the top and you could see all the decoration, it is super cozy and there were many local customers, that already indicates that the food is good. And most importantly the food, whenever we travel to the United Kingdom we usually have the Sunday Roast and it is without a doubt the best we have tried. A must see if you visit Glasgow 🥰

Great lunch & great service. Staff excellent. Perfect!

My mum and I stopped for a night in Glasgow when travelling to see family in Scotland, for our holiday treat, chose our old favourite (Stravaigin) for dinner. It did not disappoint! Food was a fantastic as ever - tasty, imaginative dishes, service friendly, helpful. We had my dog, which was no problem to them - well worth a visit, you won’t be disappointed. Highlights for me were the Scallops and pumpkin (excellent, well thought out, balanced plate) or the manchego brûlée but it’s hard to choose as all the dishes were amazing - others we had were the pigeon starter, duck leg special with tabbouleh, the Basque cheesecake. If I was to make any criticism at all we did have to wait a bit for our desert order to be taken, then again to pay our bill - but I am really nip picking as there were plenty of staff, all busy in full service, so we could of flagged someone down but we were in no hurry so waiting was no problem. Thanks again Stravaigin, a highlight of our trip home

Sunday Lunch. Made a trip in from Balloch purely for Sunday Lunch on a dreich day on a recommendation. Simply put, worth the trip. Great atmosphere, great service, memorable (in a good way) Yorkshires filled with a really savoury ragu, to accompany really tasty roast beef and enough decent gravy to keep a Yorkshire Lass happy (not an easy feat). I still don't like Haggis but that is my problem as this may be the best I've ever tried either vegetarian or 'real', too. And the vanilla ice cream was just amazing, maybe not had better outside of Italy. Don't dither, GO. We will next time we are anywhere near.

Great pub. Lots of table space, never a long wait at bar. Great staff.

Haggis is just out of this world tasty. Very-very good, buy the large portion, don't rob yourself of such a feast with a smaller version. Again, can't say enough good things about the haggis. The staff is super pleasant, the vibes great, the steak is nice too, but just you go and order that haggis and thank me later

Excellent food, lovely service and congenial atmosphere. My favourite restaurant bar in Glasgow.

We had a lovely diner. The food was so delicious, the service friendly and efficient and the atmosphere pleasant and relaxed. And they take dogs too. Definitely will be back.

Friday evening, busy and buzzy, great vibe. Fab as ever, always such a lovely welcome :) thanks for great table Olivia x Food was deeelish and of course the best Margarita's in town 10/10. Top service as always. See you v soon xxx

The food is just wonderful. The vegan roast is to die for. Our server was delightful, but they always are. Two or three things off the menu this time, but plenty of good stuff still on there to choose from.

Blew me out the water especially once my expectations were dampened when I noticed it was now a greene king venue. Had no idea until afterwards it was Michelin guide but it well well deserves to be. I was blown away by the food quality. Service was pretty good and the staff were really nice. When you walk in the door there's not really a set place to stand and wait to be seated so I was stood for a couple of minutes kind of looking around to see if I would be seated but as soon as staff were aware of my presence they were super attentive the whole time without suffocating us. There were individual staff who didn't seem to have the same attentiveness that we struggled to get the attention of but aside from that the whole experience was fantastic and way above my expectations. I had the squid starter in a peanut curry sauce that was absolutely incredible with some nicely seared chorizo and I convinced my girlfriend to try pigeon for the first time and she loved it. She got the steak and I got the venison and both were cooked to perfection and presented beautifully. I finished with a citrus cheesecake that's in that burnt style I can't remember the name of but that was also incredible. Had a tea great night overall though the bill was slightly higher than we had planned on it was well worth it and we had just gotten carried away. We weren't pushed with heavy upsells or anything like that. Great restaurant, definitely worth a visit

Glad to see Stravaigin still going strong. Our first visit in about 10 years and the food, atmosphere and service are still brilliant. Loved very minute - and mouthful! The mussels in a curry sauce were superb as was the venison loin.

Wonderful atmosphere , incredible food and outstanding service. I highly recommend dining at Stravaigin

Rustic but refined atmosphere. Finest Scottish produce mastefully cooked which produces scrumptious dishes. A feast for both eyes and taste buds. A must try when in the West End of Glasgow.

Excellent experience overall. I popped in for a late lunch and everything was perfect. Highly recommend!

I love it here. From the beginning the service was flawless, with questions easily answered about the menu, flexible mixology, and efficient without feeling rushed. The food was glorious, with rich and fun flavours. Always enjoy eating at Stravaigin

When I’m in Glasgow, I always try to have a meal here. Great food and atmosphere- nice and relaxed.

Stylish restaurant in Glasgow ♫ The veggie haggis and curry were exquisite. The atmosphere of the store was great and the staff's customer service was great! Recommended♪

Delicious meal served by lovely staff. Sylvie was wonderful. Great booth table. Caters for wee dogs too. She loved it too. 🐶

Cosy spot in a booth, everyone had great food and lovely service. Thank you :)

Hello Stravaigin Team! Thanks for a delicious dining experience. As a solo/single traveler, thanks also for not seating me in a dark corner - I had a lovely window seat, felt a part of the neighbourhood, and was well taken care of by all staff! Wonderful haggis, aromatic curry and lovely wines to pair. Cheers!

Lovely restaurant. Service was friendly but slow- particularly trying to get the bill and pay. Starters were tasty but main was underwhelming in terms of flavour. Strawberry pudding was delicious.

Food was delicious Staff superb Great table and atmosphere Hadn’t been for a while and it did not disappoint Will be back soon

My God! Patronize this place! It is the epitome of the Scots joint “for what ails ye!” Mind the lovely food, and the superior barkeep. You can thank me later.

Fantastic food, great service, lovely ambience in the mezzanine. One diner is coeliacs and the menu had lots of options and the staff discussed options or adaptations for every course.

Super friendly staff, great wine selection, delicious local food, the salmon croquettes and venison steak and smoked potato were delicious, thank you for looking after us.

Perhaps we were lucky to be welcomed in the lower room, more intimate and quiet, but the experience was excellent. Three different dishes to taste three specialities. The haggis is excellent. To drink 3 pints of local beer

Everything was just perfect about that restaurant… food, ambiance and quality. I particularly recommend the Loch Melfort sea trout and if you want to try haggis you can take it in a small portion. You can share it as we did. Even if we were full we got the desserts absolutely delicious. Look for the one with strawberries from Fife and also the chocolate cake! I’m not fan of dogs in restaurants but it look like a thing around here. If I was still in town tomorrow, I would go back for another discovery on the menu!

Stravaigin has lost a little of its lovely well worn patina and soul. We arrived at midday on Sunday to find the place dead. It used to have a great atmosphere but I think the refurb and menu change has killed it a little. I’m not 100% sure but there doesn’t appear to be a brunch menu available - perhaps we were too late. I miss the nasi goreng and the curry option doesn’t seem to change anymore. (Please remove the potato, it’s too much with the rice and bread.) Lovely staff, tasty food, crap atmosphere.

Another warm , cosy place in west end , thank you ☺️

I would’ve gave them five stars for Service, but they would not call a cab for us for whatever reason. Also, I could not use their Wi-Fi correctly.

Food was delicious and most enjoyable especially the mussels. Best I’ve eaten in a long time. Service was slow. It was difficult to get the waitress’ attention and the service we needed. Left a feeling of being unimportant. My god daughter had recommended Stravaigan as her favourite so was a little disappointed.

Came here for lunch on a Saturday. We didn’t have to wait to be seated and the service was quick and very friendly. The food was brilliant. Will certainly be back next time I’m in Glasgow.

The team at Stravaigin went above and beyond to make our night & dinner special. Everything was exceptional, from the service to the food. I highly recommend the venison and smoked potato dish. Cheers!

The Yorkshire Pud has beef ragu stuffed inside it.

Great place to taste the Scottish Cuisine in a nice atmosphere. We spent a lovely time with the family, and were enchanted by the good and tasteful food. The Haggis with Whisky sauce was wonderful !

Fabulous meal, very attentive staff and a group of 15 had the best evening. Thanks to all at Stravaigin.

Enjoyed the food and experience.

Great drink selection- cocktails and mocha were great. Trout dish and vegetarian haggis were very tasty and filling.

Our server was a delightful young woman. We particularly enjoyed the mussels and the soup as well as the excellent bread.

Been many years since I last visited. Staff were really lovely, especially Morven. Food was delicious, mussels in that fabulous sauce was sooooo good and the burger was so tasty and juicy. Will visit again soon but by train next time as parking in the area was a nightmare and very expensive.

Superb evening spent with friends, some who have dietary restrictions and all of us catered for beautifully.

My wife and I recently celebrated our wedding at Stravaigin, and it’s only right that I leave a 5-star review. From start to finish, everything was absolutely perfect, and I cannot recommend the venue and the incredible staff highly enough. If we could do it all over again, we would pick Stravaigin every time. Throughout the entire planning process, Olivia was an absolute gem. She was not only incredibly helpful and attentive to every detail, but she also played a huge role in calming our nerves as the big day approached. Her support and expertise truly made a difference, and we felt reassured knowing that everything was in such capable hands. On the day itself, the staff at Stravaigin went above and beyond to ensure everything ran smoothly, and their professionalism was second to none. Every single one of our guests has told us how amazing the food was—it’s still being talked about! The team executed everything flawlessly, making sure our guests were well looked after and that we had nothing to worry about. The venue itself was nothing short of spectacular. Many of our guests commented on how fantastic the setting was, perfectly complementing the atmosphere of our celebration. The whole experience left us feeling truly special, and we are so grateful for the memories we created at Stravaigin. If you’re looking for a venue that offers outstanding service, exceptional food, and a team that genuinely cares about making your day perfect, then Stravaigin is the place to go. We couldn’t have imagined a better place to celebrate our wedding

We had an incredible dining experience at Stravaigin in Glasgow. Visiting with our 14-year-old, who bravely tried haggis for the first time, we were all impressed by the exceptional service and delicious food. As a celiac, I was delighted by the careful attention to ensuring my meals were completely gluten-free. The venison was amazing, and the squid and ox cheek were equally delicious. The soup was spectacular, perfectly warming on a cool summer day. The service was prompt and attentive throughout our meal. Stravaigin is truly an amazing way to sample authentic Scottish cooking. Highly recommended!

Some months ago a friend of mine was visiting glasgow and i was googling to find some bars for him where he might get the chance to see some live music. When i found the Stravaigin on google, google pictures showed some drinks where i could have sworn one of them was a basil-smash gin, my friends favourite. So i urged him to visit the place and for sure when he got there he ordered a basil-smash, which(turns out) the bartender swore that in all the years he's been workin there, they never had that on the menue. My friend insisted though on the drink, since i've promised him he'd get it there. And in the face of false accusation (my fault) of not having that drink, the bartender reacted with friendliness, ingenuety and skill and put together a basil-smash gin for my friend that wasnt even on the menue. If i could i'd love to give more than 5 starts to this bar and their amazing staff. would very much recommend

Great food and service. On the upper level on our own so lacked atmosphere. Had a drink in the bar afterwards.

Not been in since the change of ownership, not changed much at all and food is still fantastic which is great!

Excellent food and service. We had Rendang mussels that were exceptional. Very close to a Michelin-star in terms of food quality. The waitress was also extra-kind with our little daughter. Will definitely go back!

I've been coming to Stravaigin ever since I moved to Glasgow (1996) and I've never been so disappointed with the food. There is no longer much variety in the menu, and the minute changes that are made appear all too seldom. Our starter was excellent but £11 for two slices of squid and a handful of chorizo is hardly good value. My wife's sea trout with spanakopita (she is Greek) was, in her view, excellent. My own ancho chili (vegan) burger was a squishy mess that had no hint of the heat or smokiness of ancho chilis. We won't be going back to Stravaigin again.

Absolutely wonderful celebration lunch. Relaxed atmosphere with impeccable service and faultless food. The duck parfait with black cherry was perfection and the sea trout with spanakopita and confit tomatoes anabsolute stand out dish. Delicious cocktails and good wine choices. Olivia the manager is the most convivial host! A great experience, five stars plus 🌟💫

I really like this place. I have been to it everytime I've been to Glasgow

Always love eating and drinking at stravagin

We enjoyed a lovely meal with a friendly and attentive waitress. My only complaint was the price of your desserts. £8.50 for one scoop of melting ice cream with 2 ‘kingdom of Fife’ strawberries …. Halved. Come on, don’t rip off your customers!

They do not serve grey squirrels, as mentioned in the details.

Booked in for dinner before going to bandstand for an event. Quiet when we arrived, seated straight away but left sitting a bit too long before drinks order was taken and served. Mussels and soup of the day were stunning. Flavours were fantastic. Venison main was outstanding. Short rib of beef burger was so disappointing. Both of us ordered the burger and we both thought the same. Absolutely tasteless burger served on a dry as bone brioche bun. Chips were fab.

Came in for the first time last night before we went to see The Midnight. Staff were lovely and very attentive. Food was amazing cooked to perfection and big portions. Will 100% be back.

The food tasted pretty good. But for the price it's not quite worth it.

There was an event on at the bandstand when I ate here so the restaurant was very busy but service was still attentive. Food was amazing. Highly recommend.

Both the food and waitress were fantastic. 2 of the group opted for the special (the Cullen skink) and they both agreed it was the best they'd ever had. Both the vegi and normal haggis were great, especially with the whiskey sauce (this was mostly cream, but that wasn't a bad thing with the dish). Over all a great experience, just a warning that the roof is a bit low on the top floor!

Nice atmosphere and interior, but service was very slow. Menu slightly limited, the venison was excellent but sauce slightly salty. 12.5% discretionary service charge (menu says 10%), I wouldn’t have tipped as much as that as service was very slow (waiter did apologise), but didn’t feel comfortable asking for it to be removed.

Found online reviews and booked Stravaigin for our first meal in Scotland. Experienced haggis for the first time and it was delicious! I also had the sea trout with spanakopita which was wonderful; fish was moist and flavorful. My husband had the mussels and burger- said they were the best mussels he ever ate and the burger (beef) was superb! The dark chocolate cake with the malted vanilla ice cream excellent as well. We enjoy finding great meals and we have put this within our top ten ever. The decor and ambience was intimate and creative. The best part of our experience was our server, Morven. She was friendly and fun, and very knowledgeable of the menu. She even offered suggestions of local pubs and attractions when we asked. We thoroughly enjoyed our meal and highly recommend!

Second time at the restaurant, having been a few years ago. The food was as outstanding as I remembered, and my glass of wine memorable as well. The service, while friendly and pleasant when one did have it, was excrutiatingly slow: between being seated and someone coming to take my drink order; ages for the glass of wine to arrive; slow for my starter and a horribly long time between the starter and my next dish. I am not sure I would have even gotten it when I did had I not FINALLY been able to get the server's attention, after many attempts. Ages to get the bill too. And, seated in The Cellar part, next to a wall case of wine bottles: clean the cobwebs off them sometime!

We had a fab night here. Amazing food and great atmosphere. Only downside was a very long wait for our food.

Loved it. Great food and service. Thoroughly excellent

At the weekend we had the Sunday Roast . The decor of the place is lovely, with old Singer sewing machine tables. So that is a nice 'local' touch. I had the duck liver pater and black cherry ketchup to start with, which was nice. Although I wasn't 100% convinced on the brioche toast. For our main course all three of us went for the roast beef. Which came with roasties, carrot, cauliflower & broccoli cheese, a separate pot of gravy and a Yorkshire pudding that had some slow cook meat inside. We were all a little disappointed with the roast beef, all three plates of meat were chewy. And unfortunately we did end up leaving some and not managing to eat it all. The roast potatoes were excellent though, the best we've had in a while. The meat inside the Yorkshire pudding was amazing, but it was a bit confusing having it encased in the Yorkshire. We really enjoyed the Salted Caramel pudding and the Mango Sorbet. Overall we'd give the Sunday Roast a 7 out of 10. Everything but the meat was amazing.

It’s a wee bit pricy but great atmosphere and so wonderfully dog friendly. Water brought for my dog without being requested. Most appreciated

Interesting and delicious food in an interesting and beautiful setting. Had the small plate of haggis with the whisky cream.

Lovely catch up with friends. Great food, ambience and service

I am Muslim and am restricted to a Halal diet. I wanted to try the Scottish Haggis with Tatties & Neeps and I believe this is one of the only places that offers a vegetarian version of it! I also ordered a 0.0% Alcohol Beer to go along with it and I have to say I am Impressed! I loved it alot, was left scooping up the last bits. The Ambiance was great, loved the Old School theme and the wooden bar is a pretty sight.

Had a fabulous evening at Stravaigin. Brought my mum and family here for my mums birthday and everyone loved it. As soon as we were seated it wasn’t long until a lovely friendly member of staff came over acknowledging it was a birthday and wished my mum happy birthday. The food and service was first class, would highly recommend Stravaigin.

Celebrated our Golden Wedding with our family last night. Food and service were excellent, The duck liver parfait was delicious. Feel I must mention our waiter Scott, such a friendly and efficient guy, he happily took photos for us and even though they were very busy he made time to chat. Thank you for making our night so special.

We had a Guide Dog with us and we had a good space for him in bar and atmosphere was active if a wee bit noisy due to some barking dogs (ironic?) Service was delivered professionally and friendly. Food was well presented although "scottish" cuisine was stretched but very enjoyable. A good evening, thanks to all!

Beautiful food. And friendly staff. The guy was most helpful in letting us know what was gluten free.

Quiet thurs afternoon in this cool venue. House rose , French and dry... delicious

Great food and service as always

I love Stravaigan - staff are brilliant and so careful with my allergies. Great food and great atmosphere and dog friendly too.

A wee problem with booking, but sorted by very helpful team members. A small and varied menu that focuses on fresh, quality, seasonal. Good cocktails and pudding as well.

We had a great lunch during a tour of Glasgow. The food was excellent! The mussels are a must have during your meal.

We went for lunch after my daughter’s graduation and it was excellent. Food was delicious and waiting staff attentive. It feels special without being too formal. Knowledge of menu was spot on and staff checked in with us discretely and were not intrusive.

35 of us were fit into a private room in the basement. The noise was painful. Ruined the experience of the very good food.
