Stravaigin in Glasgow City

I have known about this place forever but have only tried it today. The service was great and the food was fantastic! Food ordered: Venison Rump Steak with Bone Marrow Smoked haddock Risotto Dark Choc and Orange cake Everything was absolutely amazing and i really cant wait to go again! Can't tell you enough how great it was, you really need to go and visit. Absolutely recommend!

Amazing food, fantastic service, I will definitely be back. Very accommodating of my dietary restrictions.

Amazing staff, greeted by Olivia who I haven't seen for months what a lovely bar she runs, lovely clientele and atmosphere xx

Excellent food The best gluten free bread I’ve had in a long time in a restaurant Many GF options. Much appreciated Staff very friendly

Lovely meal and great welcome for our dog 🐕

Fabulous as always . Great fun staff too xx

Absolutely amazing once again, great place for us with our dogs. Thank you all

One of my most favourite places to eat. Always amazing food, service is great and lovely staff. I’ve been many times and will never stop coming back to Stravaigin

Staff were great. Starters and main courses were delicious. Affogato for dessert was a bit disappointing...ice-cream and presentation let it down.

We had the most amazing Dinner for Valentine’s Day. Our server Scott was phenomenal, and made us feel so welcome as well as making amazing recommendations for our food. The menu has a great range of meals and price points, the atmosphere was lively but also chilled, we will be back!

As always, friendly, relaxed and welcoming, and dog friendly too. Well worth the jaunt from the NW Highlands.

Friendly, warm service and environment. Food was terrific.

We had the Sunday steak, it tasted great but it was way too little meat in composition to the other stuff on the plate. Felt far from the ideal generous Sunday roast. Otherwise nice experience.

Really excellent food, the staff and service were great. The upstairs bar was lively, the cellar restaurant was more intimate. I enjoyed a large dish of mussels in a rendang curry sauce which was delicious, my guest had the veggie haggis which was also fabulous. The cocktails and wine selection were great too 👍👍

Excellent food with friendly, knowledgeable staff and great atmosphere

Very good. Busy. Short menu with a good choice of shell food, fish, veggie and meat. I chose pigeon breast as a starter and Venison as a main. Good wine list. Excellent service.

Enjoyed starters then tasty venison and hake dishes from the main course menu with an excellent Languedoc Pinot Noir.

Love this place. Delicious food, especially the haggis - the main reason we were i.e. Burns night. Would highly recommend for anyone wanting to try haggis. Friendly staff. Great atmosphere. Will be back again. Thank you!

We will come back to eat, because the food looks good. But the bar area was a bit boring. We also ordered the Oaxacan peanuts as a bar snack and they were completely covered in bright red greasy oil. They tasted fine but were impossible to eat as a bar snack and dangerous for clothes! If you were sharing them in a bigger group you would have a lot of mess and licked fingers being dunked in and out of the nuts. Very odd!

Received a voucher as a gift the food, service everything was fantastic will definitely be back 10/10

Very cosy winter lunch beside the wood fire

If you're in Glasgow during the festive period (or any time actually) I highly recommend a visit to Stravaign. Twinkling lights everywhere, a roaring fire, friendly staff and patrons, hearty food and it's also dog friendly, if you feel pet deprived. I had a delicious zero beer there, which I can also recommend.

Really nice food and a good mix of small and large plates for all appetites, along with some original cocktails and an excellent wine list. Great atmosphere and service too.

First time in Glasgow, travelling solo, heard it was a good pub so booked for dinner. I took an Uber from my hotel, but a local bus back to a stop near my hotel. Enjoyed the bar atmosphere and dinner was excellent. Haggis, tatties and neeps starter (it convinced me I do like haggis), then venison with broccoli and chips ( I asked to swap main's normal mash for chips as I had it with the haggis) The venison was cooked to a perfect medium rare, as it should be, and the broccoli was also perfect, with a crispness. Great sauce complimenting both. The atmosphere is lovely, I was upstairs for dinner (which was a little warm even though I taken off several layers). Staff were lovely and service spot on. Loved this place. Definitely recommend.

Delicious food and friendly chatty staff. Lovely evening thank you

Lovely place and honestly we ate very well, I tried the whiskey and I have to say that I don't really like it but I ended up pouring it into my coffee as if it were a Scotch but without the cream hahaha. I recommend it if you have the opportunity to visit it, you will love it because I will return I promise

Great meal and fun way to see in the New Year. The service was very friendly and efficient despite a very busy night!

We had a great tine at Hogmanay Hoolie and really enjoyed food, wine, service and Michael’s excellent singing and guitar.

Lovely evening. Service top notch & food yummy too. 👏🏼🙏🏻👏🏼

We had a family Christmas Eve lunch (6 of us). Began with cocktails, continued with fabulous food and wine. Service and atmosphere were great. Plenty pretty lights and some festive buzz. Just perfect.

Dined here recently for my wife's birthday. Nice ambiance and vibe however the menu was disappointing. Starters and curry were tasty however the burgers were somewhat average. Two of our party ordered the prawn curry which was clearly read back by our waiter. Very disappointing to therefore be served two chicken curries when the food arrived! Those of us who had ordered burgers then had to wait whilst our food cooled until the correct order arrived about 10 minutes later. Not great. The menu also advertises Loch Melfort sea trout. I avoided this as it is undoubtedly farmed. Looking afterwards at the Loch Melfort aquaculture website it appears that the so called 'sea trout' are in fact sea farmed rainbow trout. The menu is therefore very misleading. Sea trout (a threatened and protected fish in Scotland) are native brown trout which migrate to sea and return to spawn-not farmed, non-indigenous rainbow trout. Ironically and sadly, aquaculture farms have decimated wild sea trout stocks by infesting them with sea lice. The restaurant needs to spell out exactly what is on offer on the menu- i.e Loch Melfort sea farmed rainbow trout and not "sea trout'.

Lovely lunch with my son and parents - and while quiet when we sat down was very busy and cosy-feeling by about half one. Food was great, curry highly recommended

First visit since sale to Greene King and delighted to see it’s as good as it ever was. Great choice of dishes on menu and wonderfully cosy atmosphere on a dreich December day. VERY dog friendly.

Mixed dining experience. Overpriced and underwhelming burgers but dessert, staff and service was great!

Great pub, great atmosphere… food ain’t too bad either, smashing wee scoobie snack when out for a pint

I had a lovely, festive meal on the 24th accompanied by a nice glass of Romanian wine. The atmosphere in the cellar was really relaxing, the parsnip and apple veloute I had was 10 out of 10 & the main dish was an unusual for me interpretation of the Christmas turkey - very tasty though;)) for my dessert I ordered the Tonka bean Panna cotta which was very light/creamy and a very nice finish of my festive meal;) highly recommend the experience

I had a Xmas lunch (3 course meal) with around 20 guests and had a lovely time. The presentation and quality of the food was spectacular, even with such a large number of guests. The staff were lovely and regularly asking how we were finding our dishes which were so tasty. The portion sizes were good too for a festive 3-course meal. My biggest appreciation was for how the resturant kindly agreed to alter their festive menu 2 months prior to accommodate for a large number of vegetarian guests. They included a variety of tasty veggie and non-veg options and my veggie guests greatly enjoyed their meals! Amazing!

Fab all round ! Very hard working staff considering they are up and down these stairs with a smile 👏👏

i love Stravaigin. It is my 4th year to hold a group celebration there. The Festive Menu was great and we were very well looked after by the staff. I adored the orange and chocolate dessert.

Lovely food, good service and a nice atmosphere

Booked for our team's Christmas lunch and it was brilliant. Delicious food, excellent choice of wine and a lovely atmosphere. Thank you!

Fantastic service, fantastic food and fantastic atmosphere . Hard to beat Stravaigin.

Google said I am a top 20% reviewer and is annoyingly pushing me to leave a comment or review for this location. I avoided it a few times, but obviously, the universe wants this to happen, so here you go. I've been to Stravaigan twice in my life. I don't have either a particularly positive or negative experience. It's some sort of pseudo sophistication "wearing" an urban hipster vibe. It's not my style for sure. The staff are really friendly and helpful, the food is good (I assume), and as I said about the atmosphere—it’s probably the best place in the world for someone, but not my gig. Both times I’ve been there, I was ill for a week afterwards. I rarely get ill in general. I don't know the reason and I'm not going to investigate either, but as a result, I’m not going back for sure, as that’s the message I’m getting from the universe. Apart from that, if this is your style—enjoy! P.S. I don't think this review is helpful for anyone apart from Google, so don't get it too serious. Don't get life too serious as well as tomorrow never comes.

My first time trying Haggis, really lovely restaurant, the pigeon was superb as well. My favorite part was the atmosphere, please visit if you're in the West End.

Was here working, doing caricatures for a works Christmas party. Atmosphere was great and the staff were friendly and helpful. The downstairs area was perfect for a private function and we definitely recommend

A birthday lunch just before Christmas - the restaurant is beautifully decorated and was fairly quiet (thankfully) the lunchtime we attended. Excellent haggis and a parsnip and apple soup with very good gluten-free bread. All tasted very fresh and good. Main courses are pricey at around £29 ish but deliver on taste and very well judged for balance in flavour. The wine is pricey but again, for us, this was a treat so felt the wine list offered a good choice. The Tempranillo was not light at 14% but holds good quality and fruit. Would order all the same things again. Service was fun, prompt and lovely from Olivia with back up speed and polite, friendly and excellent. Overall, excellent place and dining experience. Big thanks for such a fun visit.

Lovely food, great wine selection, wonderful staff and twinkly ambience- will be back to this local gem

Excellent food and good pricing. Staff were very helpful and personable.

Such an amazing experience for authentic Scottish Cuisine. Loved the Haggis and Pigeon. A must try for anybody when in Glasgow.

Really great restaurant. Staff, food and atmosphere fantastic. Go.

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

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

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

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

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

Great service and great food, atmosphere friendly and inviting .

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 🥰

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

Great lunch & great service. Staff excellent. Perfect!

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

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

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.

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.

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

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♪

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

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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 ☺️
