The Beer House in Glasgow City

Great spot for all the train users in Glasgow. I recently went in for all day breakfast and this was excellent value for money. The portion size was just what the Doctor ordered. The staff are very helpful and friendly too! Special Mention to Aaron, Aiden and Lewis. Even though they are very busy they all have time for a chat. Highly Recommended.

Great atmosphere and the staff/management look after you. A great place to start or end your journey or even pop in for food or a refreshment, you won't be disappointed.

Great for a quick drink after coming off the train/waiting for the the train. Arran pn the bar staff was great, fab service and a laugh. Brillant

Great little pub with good food and reasonable prices. Located in train station for nice view. Very friendly staff will look after you

Zo ver mogelijk weg blijven. We waren mat een groep van 20 personen en bestelden ieder en hamburger. NA 1,5 uur hadden we er 12. De broodjes die we kregen waren ronduit smerig. Hamburgers waren aanvankelijk zwart met bakresten van maanden. De laatste hamburgers waren koud. Ze hadden geen sla, eieren en zelfs geen Guiness. Absoluut waardeloze tent. En we moesten maar begrip voor HUN opbrengen omdat ze maar met drie waren. We moesten uiteindelijk gaan om ons vliegtuig te halen. Complete afgang daar

Shockingly bad. Never attend here. Service bad, prices ridiculous, manager a joke. I wouldn't wish my worst enemy happen upon this tip.

Reasonable range of beers on offer. Decent bottled ciders. Lots of seating. A good place to wait for your train.

Saw sign beer from £4.40, wine £3.95. Large wine and wee coke with no ice £11.48, worth checking price first, misleading

Popped in for a hot chocolate and pint birra moretti as our train was a few hrs away. We came to glasgow to see bono(u2) Very nice and clean and staff is friendly and very helpful his name was Thomas (give him a pat on the back) If I visit glasgow again I'll definitely come back

Disappointed, to say the least. We went here specifically because my partner loves Orchard Thieves cider, and this is the only place we know in Glasgow to get it. First disappointment: It was off, tap covered because " the chiller broke down this morning" . She settled ( reluctantly) for a bottle of Bulmers. I wanted the Strongbow dark fruits. Guy starts to pour it, sputtering and stuttering from tap, pink foam , nothing else "oh, I'll need to change the barrel" I opted for Amstel lager ( I like it, but not a first or even second choice option) since nothing else on gantry appealed. So, we tried to order lunch. "3 BAR SNACKS ( £4 EACH) FOR £10 " screamed the cards on every table, so we went for the deal, only wanted a light snacky lunch. 6-7 choices on the offer, partner can only eat the chicken wings , I can eat any of them. So, " We'll have 1 x Meat balls, 1xBBQ wings, ( one each ) and 1 x teryaki wings ( share option for us) " oh sorry, we don't have any wings " .So, not what we wanted in drink, no food . Now, I will temper this review with the rider that it is the first time I have been in, but my partner has been several times while waiting for train for a cider , and no complaints. Maybe We just hit an off day , I don't know.However I am loath to try again an d be disappointed once more . BTW, the blue Lagoon sit-in next door supplied a first class all day breakfast and fish supper for lunch .

Popped in for a drink while waiting for a train £1.10 for a splash of coke in my jack daniels. Staff couldn't care less no interest in the customers at all and the toilets were a disgrace I should have worn my wellingtons .

Just don’t even bother going here for breakfast, came here as it was convenient being right in the train station, ordered a full breakfast, added toast and butter on as the guy pointed out it wasn’t included, got a coke and a latte aswell and some avocado, 20 pounds. The food wasn’t even warm when it came it looked awful I literally ate abit of the bacon and left the rest. 2.29 for toast and butter? I got one piece of toast? No butter, sorry but this is absolute day light robbery I don’t mind paying for things but I actually felt like 20 pounds had just gone down the drain, nobody came over to check if the food was ok and to be honest I couldn’t be bothered complaining I just left.

Arrived after a long train ride, ordered two pints, only to be told the keg had run out and needed changing,, bartender offered to charge for a half instead of a pint, was too tired to argue… drank up and left, I’m sure Glasgow has a lot more bars that offer full drinks and better service

Overall excellent experience, staff were friendly & very helpful when asking for recommendations. The price where alittle expensive but understandable for being a station bar. The food selection was good & very tasty.

The staff were friendly and helpful. The service was quick and efficient. This is a great wee pub to meet people in town and have a few drinks before going out.

2 glasses of rose wine £16.98 despite advertising glasses of wine for £3.39. When questioned this with staff they said they have to put 20% onto the price as it’s in the train station. I definitely won’t be returning there the prices are disgraceful

Went in around 3.30 in afternoon as I had over an hour to wait before my train left. Asked for a cider. Hadn't got any. Asked for a draught beer. Hadn't got any. Only had Guinness or lager. The woman who served me was grumpy...

Welcome to Glasgow not. Total rip off, I was £22 for 3 drinks. Toilets and tables were filthy. Walk outside the station and you can choose from lovely places for a drink.

We just popped in for a quick drink while we got our bearings. The only fault I had was that our table wasn’t clean

I had an excellent experience in the short time I spent in the beerhouse on a stop over to London on the train. They had a good range of beers and nicely priced house wines on offer. The staff were welcoming and made sure me...

Me and my friend pop in as our train was delayed so we had time to wait. So came in for some food & a drink. Food was very good, I had the chicken, bacon, cheese burger which was great & very filling. My friend...

Me and my friends poped in for a drink on a Saturday it was very busy but the staff where like working bees. The girls was in and out of the var clearling and cleaning tabes and the bartenders where constantly making drinks for costemers....

First came in, wasn’t welcomed at all or offered a menu. Eventually found one on corner table as there were none on bar. Should always ask customers if they will be eating today, customer service was very poor and didn’t even speak, just nods and...

Unpleasant rude member of staff, slow service, dirty table, flat pints. Most unpleasant experience ever and paid through the nose for the pleasure.

While travelling home, called in for a pint, the place was a mess with dirty empty glasses everywhere, ordered a pint of beer handed over £10 was given 16p back when I challenged the girl she said her manager would have to count the till...

What a rip off drinks well over priced no price list either surprise surprise !!! Used to stop here waiting for train never again my advice is avoid & go to central hotel drinks are cheaper than this place & nicer venue.

Popped in for a quick drink before the train. £15 for a rum and an average, small glass of red wine 😂

Popped in for a pint before our train. Difficult to get somewhere to sit as plenty of tables but no chairs. Eventually got a pint and returned to be deafened by the 'background' music. Really earsplitting and of course everyone then had to shout to...

I went in for a drink with my husband on a Saturday night..one person serving! Finally after 10mins of waiting a woman server came to join him...she had a face that would curdle milk. She shouted about forming a queue, then continued to ignore me...

I Was in on Wednesday afternoon, staff were lovely and a good laugh which makes up for the prices! Definitely will make regular visits 👌

We popped in for a drink and drinks were at average standard but toilets are a disgrace need sorting

I had popped in for a beer while I was waiting on my friend arriving on the train. I went towards the bar to order. 2 staff were on. The place was busy with people that probably shouldn't have been served anymore alcohol. The music was blaring the Shania twain album. No no. Not just one song. Song after song. Shania. While waiting to be served. Yeap a dispute happens. Staff then call for help. Two more staff appear behind the bar. Where was the security staff. The men sort themselves and now all 4 staff continue to serve the alcohol. The place is a nightmare. Yeap and 5. 50 a bottle of beer. Avoid!!

Popped in on our way to Prestwick. Scotland is proud of it's Lorne so how this establishment can serve the worst my pallet has ever tasted is beyond me, it was more like pate . Once bitten, twice binned. Avoid

Our visit to this establishment was vey disappointing.It is very conveniently situated at the Glasgow train station.When we arrived at the pub/retaurant it was 5pm and we asked for the menus before being seated.When we wanted to order food ten minutes later, we were told that the kitchens are closed. Very poor service indeed.We finished our first drink and left feeling most disappointed.

Missed the train, so popped in for a quick wine with the wife. Glass of house white and single G&T.; Charged just over £16 so went back to question it. I paid £9 for a glass of ordinary wine. Couldn't believe it. The place is a mess too, so not even a nice place to be. Will definitely not be back. What a cheek they've got !!!

Wish I had looked it up first, but the reason I went in was to use the wifi - which, after paying an extortionate £10.49 for ONE glass of wine, turned out to be SkyWifi for which I had to create an account. Just finished with that aggravation when a big issue seller came and tried to me sell me a copy. I am normally a very kind person with lots of time and empathy for others, but I am ashamed to say I just snapped at him "They charge too much for the wine in here! I am not buying a big issue too!"

So almost 3 years ago I met my partner for the first time in the Beer House! The date ended up lasting 6 hours, (I think we may just have got on!!).It has been our special meeting place ever since! We still meet up there separately on date days for a first drink but even if we are out together the rule is we have a drink in the Beer House for the road! It’s not the cheapest pub around but will always have lots of happy memories & be a special place for us! xx

We had a good dinner. The ox cheek pie was something particular! And the steak was great too. We had a great meal, with a very friendly staff taking care of us.

Avoid - Staff very rude and drinks overpriced. 1 pint coast to coast, 2 soft drinks and a coffee over £20. Will definitely never go back to this establishment

Insane prices for a dingy little pub in a train station, made wise by the horrific staff. The "manager" with the glasses should be fired on the spot. Rude, obnoxious, arrogant. Just the worst kind of jobsworth. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE.

£14.65 for a cold flat pint of beer and a glass of wine, all cask beers were off on a Friday night ??? The staff were friendly and apologetic thou!

£5.70 for a San Miguel in a bitter glass. Surprised they didn't charge me for air. There are two spoons around the corner

If you enjoy a glass of wine this place must be avoided. They charge some of the highest prices for a less than mediocre pub. £8.99 for a small glass of shiraz is way over priced! There are loads of fantastic pubs and wine bars nearby that don't charge these prices. We visited at the end of our night with a bit of time to wait for the train. We got caught out this time but definitely won't be back. It's more expensive than the champaigne bar in the station...lovely surroundings and atmosphere.. go there instead.

Popped in while waiting for a train and wish I’d read the reviews first.

Popped in as we had half an hour to wait on a train. Prices are extortionate. Place is dirty and barmaid maybe needs to learn to smile. Never be back.

Very handy for waiting for a train friendly enough and quite reasonable though the Sir John Moore would be better. TOP TIP go to the Sir John Moore

We decided on meeting here before our night out. This is mostly due to location.

Went into this bar bought a pint of lager cost over £5 wanted pink gin and lemonade for my wife, no lemonade available asked for glass of white zinfandel none available ended up with a baileys @£6.40 a go. Poor bar best avoided as plenty other pubs nearby will never be back.

Disgraceful to charge £9.20 for a small flute of prosecco. It’s Glasgow, not London/Paris/Rome/Madrid/New York/Milan! Bar staff should be wearing Dick Turpin masks (and a smile wouldn’t go wrong). We discovered later that their house prosecco was £2 a glass cheaper. Even that is ridiculous but we weren’t offered the choice. Waited ages at the bar too as were only 2 servers. Won’t be back!

Unfortunately this bar has the monopoly in Glasgow central station right now and it’s a shame because they can get away with London prices in a sub standard Glasgow location. I paid £11 for 2 drinks for myself and my brother. Served by a surly red haired barmaid who didn’t even crack a smile and left our drinks at the end of the bar without even placing them in front of us. When I asked for a glass with ice while she was already servicing someone else I was met with an eye roll and a glass of ice slammed in front of me. Don’t give them your business, buy your drinks from Tesco’s for the train.

really enjoyed our visit nice friendly atmosphere good friendy staff and very reasonable prices would reccomend

Went for breakfast before catching train home. I'm glad I didn't read the bad reviews before going as may gave bit gone in. I have to say that we were served promptly and the food was really nice and presented well,

Give this place a wide berth. Staff too lazy to go for ice for drinks, no running water in the ladies sinks and £8.50 for a glass of crap red wine in a plastic glass ( barmaid hadn’t a clue about what type of wine she serves).

2 staff serving at snails pace, much more interested in talking to each other than serving the large number of customers waiting. A 3rd member of staff Just stood at the bar looking at the chaos and doing nothing. Besides the slow service there was no recognition of who might have waited the longest........several people just gave up and went elsewhere. I was one of them!! This place only takes £ because of where it is. If it had competition in the station it would be shunned.

Popped in to Town to meet friends for lunch. We agreed to meet in this pub as it was handy. We went in for a drink - heard guy in front being charged £11.50 for a pint of lager and a pint of Dark Fruits. Taking the mick. Needless to say we walked 2 mins to McGinns and enjoyed 2 pints of Tennants for £6.40! Dreadful value for money and really not that special - will not be back.

Closed . I was looking forward to a friendly face after a long trip . Usually such a good place . Totally disappointed and saddened to see what was a great pub fall apart

Went in for a quick drink while waiting for train

GO OUTSIDE the station and get decent grub and a nice drink in clean surroundings! Where to start...the place is dirty, over priced (because of location) food is really awful. We ordered nachos £8.00 and no one could eat them. The guacamole was brown as if it was off, the sour cream smelled, and the tortillas soft and chewy. The nachos were also served with a cheese sauce instead of grated cheese YUK. This place looks as if it’s run down and is about to close. Do yourself a favour and dodge this place. Staff nice enough.

There are so many...better pubs...within a two minute walk from Central Station than the Beer House!

I see this place has had a lot of bad reviews. Not sure why as it seemed quite pleasant to me.

This squalid joint reminds me of the Working Men’s Club my dad used to take me to in the 1960s - smelly, tacky, downbeat.

Top bar top staff only bar to visit in the station Jaq is Hilarious great company and quick Service . Not cheap but keeps out the riff raff

Always get good service even in the most busiest of periods. One of the rare pubs that do Strongbow Cloudy Apple. Quite expensive for Strongbow standards however, I.e over £4 when most pubs would sell it for less than £3. Still a wee handy venue for a pint when waiting on a train.

friendly staff and service, over £5 for San Miguel but it is located in a train station so can’t complain, nice lovely bar good taste in music, worth a visit if waiting for the train

Wanted a pint before catching the train home, seemed reasonable to go into the bar in the station itself, wrong !! Do yourself a favour go out of the Hope Street entrance and there are better pubs. One ale Greene King IPA and thats it which considering they call it a beer house is a bit off. In fact even pubs outside the station don't have ales, Wetherspoons (Sir Thomas Moore) has loads and is just round the corner - Hope St entrance. The Beer House is not very welcoming and dark with a couple of TVs and a couple of slot machines. It is quite expensive, over £4 for IPA, ridiculous. The bar is on several levels and I could be wrong but I could not see an entrance for disabled customers with a ramp or chair lift. Left after one pint that was enough for me. Go back, nope, just not a welcoming place at all.

Having to wait a while for our train we went in here for a drink.

No ales, Old Golden Hen pump broken for 10 days. Seats tatty, floor unswept, one member of staff. Methinks a body swerve in future. This has the feel of a place about to close.

The only thing this place has going for it is convenience. I had a bit of time to kill waiting for a train and thought this might prolong my wait more than one of the station coffee outlets.

My walking buddy and I dropped in here for a pint (or two) after having only just missed our connecting train and with time to kill before the next train to Ardrossan Harbour. Our mood was certainly not improved when we were charged £5:55 a pint for pretty routine beer in an untidy bar with dirty loos - we did not stay for long.

A bit basic and somewhat tired with little atmosphere but serves its purpose as (currently) the only pub in the station. Fair choice of lagers and perfectly friendly staff.

Visited this place a few times, i don't quite know why i give it another go.

Jumped in here force quick drink as we had missed our train. Small wine and a Bud £10.20!!!! What a scam....

I was in here with friends on a Thursday night and it was great! The staff behind the bar were great banter and had us in stitches the whole time we were there. The jokes and banter between customers and staff was second to none. We will definitely be back again. A wee treasure in the heart of Glasgow. Big shout out to Lorna who's customer service is spot on. She is efficient and hilarious and clearly loves her job. See you again soon!!

Nice place for a quick pint!! Staff are friendly however seem rushed off feet at times! Also a little pricey but not an issue when you are kept smiling with a girl named Lorna from behind bar

Great atmosphere and staff. The seating area at the window are a great place to chill and watch the world go by while enjoying your drink. The drink prices are a bit OTT but normal for a train station or airport I suppose.

Friendly Staff and a great atmosphere. Super handy for getting the train and lots of choice for drinks

Could not believe 18.35 for two glasses of wine nice place staff some friendly some not half way through drinking my wine noticed something in it took it back no apology made to feel I had done it deliberately probably not visit again

No Bacardi and then £11.10 for a pint of lager and a small glass of prosecco that’s what I call a rip off

My husband and I were heading home after a day in town, but just missed our train and decided to pop in for a drink while waiting. I wish we would have just stood in the station. We managed to get a table no problem which had the previous customers food drink on it. My husband stood for a few minutes at the bar while the girl behind the bar was standing chatting to a few customers. There was a guy going about clearing tables ( he was busier than the girl behind the bar), but unfortunately when we left 25 minutes later our table still hadn't been cleared from the previous customers. I will never visit this bar again.

Absolutely dire. Real mish mash of clientele. One tiny cubicle in the gents the other padlocked shut... and two Lemonades from the gun ( aka free to the pub ) £5.60!!! Back to Wetherspoons I go. Would have been better going up to Grand Central Bar at least you get what you pay for there!

Only bar in Glasgow central station. There used to be 3 in total. The other 2 have been under renovation for the past year. Normal bar with plenty of seating and good food and drink.

I drink here all the time if catching the train. Friendly staff reasonable prices and good service. Its the city centre so it is what it is . People in a hurry expect to be served instantly which cant happen in busy times. I recommend the Beer House.

Meetings finished early. What to do? Train station pub. Clean, friendly staff. Good selection of beers and the menu looks OK. They do takeaway food and train beers. Transient atmosphere, but we are in a station. Would come again if waiting for a train.

We stopped here for a quick drink before heading home. Alarm bells should have been ringing when we walked in as it’s was Pay Day weekend and we got a table and seats right away. I ordered two soft drinks - Diet Coke and a Diet IrnBru - and they managed to get half the order right - too busy chatting to other bar staff. Once she sorted out the right order - £5 for two drinks! - she didn’t bother to offer glasses. I gave her £10 and got the change in coins including the old £1 which are no longer used she wasn’t happy when I pointed it out to her. The whole time we were in the bar not one table was cleared. Would I use this place again? Not if it was the last bar in the world! Pity I can only give it one star as that’s too much for it.

After a weekend in Glasgow we were heading back and thought we would grab a bite to eat before our train jouney home. £22.50 for two blackcurrent and sodas and two club sandwiches. Honestly i have never seen anything so poor. We approaching the staff to complain, he already know what we were going to say. He told us to leave a complaint on trip advisor and the reasons thar the portions are so poor is that head office are restricting portion size. I dont think its possible to restrict it any more. The funny thing is he said he'd bring some more bacon out... 2 rashers. Save your money and go weatherpoons across the road.

£11 for a beer and warm wine. Music awful. Bar staff were even discussing how 'crap' the beer was. Won't be back.

Not too bad. ok bar would go back. bar maid Jackie was the only good looking asset about it . Should get more like her

Grossly overpriced £14.40 for 2 small wines. They don't tell you the price when you pay, after all you are juat a passenger and will be on your way before you realise that you have been mugged. Don't bother complaining either to the bar itself or its parent company, your complaints will fall on deaf ears. Avoid at all costs, use the Wetherspoons beside the station if you want a drink at a reasonable price and staff who treat you as client.

this is the first time I have given a bad review on a business, normally if I don't have anything nice to say, I say nothing, however, I am making an exception for this crowd. Three times I have stopped in to grab a quick drink before getting the train home, the place is a bit pricey for what it is, but kinda expect that considering where they are. What I don't expect is to be ignored by the staff and then be bad mouthed by them when we try to get their attention to be served in a fairly quiet space. This is now the third and last time it has happened. Seriously - please do not go in. Ever. Think it is possibly the worst service I've ever experienced in a bar.

Tables strewn with dirty glasses staff scary drinks poor and glasses felt unclean. ...oh and last but not least toilets dirty. Be warned

Every month I visit in the beer house for breakfast oh great food Scottish breakfast n coffee love it good comfortable think image plan go out night in London before go airport holiday so breakfast is good quality I am satisfied to pay give them 5 if you n partner try go it worth it fabulous love it

had to wait ages to get served then the girl served the person in front of me , then just walked away out of the bar without a word as to what was happeneing, bought two drinks eventually and got charged £10.40 for thr priveledge, go somewhere else !!!

Arrived at the bar with two staff behind, who were having a chat, with no one else to be served. 2nd chap arrived behind me, but waited one pace closer to them, so the female staff member served him first.

worth a visit as staff great and prices ok for Glasgow good atmosphere and friendly people, service very good but can be slower when busy , but not kept to long which I found was good

We arrived to Glasgow Station and the place looked nice... The place is quite nice however the beef burguer was quite bad... One of the most horrible burguers ever

Good range of drinks in good surroundings very well located in Central Station, ideal for a cheeky phone charge while you are there.

After a top weekend in Scotland we found ourselves in here for breakfast, before getting our train home. We were both starving so plumped for the breakfast bloomer - which was delicious, satisfying and everything Scottish (I love square sausage) plus we had haggis and totty scone on the side! Glasgow train central quite up-market I thought and this place was nicely furnished, clean etc. Well worth a visit before you jump on train.

I paid over £11 for 2 gins in warm glasses with no lemon offered. Robbery. The Gents' toilets also need a good clean. Would not recommend.

We had a short visit to the above pub while waiting for our train to Manchester, the pub was quiet and the service was excellent. It was clean, the toilets were very clean and

Myself my daughter her friend and her mum went to Glasgow . Had some brilliant service from hotel and other restaurants unfortunately this place let down the trip away . Terrible service from a lady called pat who served us burnt food ,sausages dripping in fat and she rolled her eyes at me when I asked for some cutlery . Awful experience slow service dreadful food and a waitress who would rather be any where than at work .
