The Ferry in Glasgow City

Was asked to be there for 6.30 pm to be told to stand in the cold as they were not ready not happy also rod tribute did not start till later ,we had to leave early to catch the last train .get your act together Waste of money to be fair

Dinner and Rod Stewart were great The staff were excellent, especially Michelle. A very enjoyable night out in a great venue. And great value.

Food was delicious and Michelle was brilliant, so friendly and helpful, nothing was too much trouble for her. Would definitely come back.

Fantastic venue and service. Entertainment fantastic also. Michelle served and looked after us with a 5 star service.

Not my favourite venue Strange seating and viewing arrangements Restricted views for many. Remote riverside location with absolutely no transport Links. but the masses will accept anything these days.Tonight you emerge into a very foul weather night and quickly get soaked to the skin waiting on taxis that often don't turn up. No buses anywhere near. Difficult place to get home from and anything but comfortable inside. Tonight's concert was the superb Albert Lee knockin' 'em dead sill at 80😱🎸

Great venue to be close up with band, good to sit upstairs but annoying with large numbers of people talking whilst performance is on.

Always a brilliant night at The Ferry! The staff are professional and wonderful; always going out of their way to ensure everyone has a great night. The variety of acts offered is amazing, there genuinely is a night for everyone! I always look forward to going to The Ferry

Came to The Ferry with my Mum for dinner and a show (Albert Lee). Dinner was 2 courses with the option to add a dessert. Not much to choose from but what we had was lovely. Service was excellent, friendly and our server Edgar was very funny. Would highly recommend the experience. Downsides are depending on where you sit upstairs, the hanging speaker can obscure your view and the seats and not very comfortable but that wouldn't put us off coming back again.

Status No was good xx good food and staff cheery and friendly

Here for the Albert Lee gig. With meal , food was good only wish there was a little more on the menu . Edgar our server was amazing very attentive and really friendly . Good laugh too 🤣 Love coming to the ferry always great music 🎶

Main acts now start far too late, 10.00pm and doesn't finish until midnight, far too late for train home so you have to leave early. Support acts don't start until around 8.00 - 8.45pm, before which, after a mediocre meal at 6.30pm (if you have it) you have to sit listening for an hour to cheap piped non-original pop or jazz music, not what rock fans want to hear. My wife sent a message about this to the Ferry office but received no reply. Five and a half hours is far too long too hang about standing or sitting on a cheap hard chair, especially when you have to wait three and a half hours to see the band you paid for, then have to leave at least half an hour before the act finishes and its not exactly handy for Central station unlike some other venues. The management think this is a good business model to sell more drink but there are definitely less fans than there used to be (so no atmosphere) plus many leave early. Nobody drinks continually for over five hours anyway, they just nurse their drinks for longer. The cloakroom is also now closed so you now have to hold your jacket all night if you're standing. It's also annoying to know that they they think it's OK to keep you hanging on for so long to spin the time out to supposedly sell more drink. No other gig venues around Glasgow do that, they finish around 10.30 pm and are always packed out, so have a better atmosphere and sell more drink in a shorter timescale (so with less staff costs). Even The Hydro with big acts adopts sensible hours. We used to go a lot to the Ferry but won't be back. Please think again Ferry management before the venue again goes down the pan.

Friendly and helpful staff ...the food was excellent and well presented..An enjoyable atmosphere throughout the evening

Great service from Michelle, great food.

Great fun and great value. Waiting staff fantastic. Thanks Michelle.

Enjoyed concert here last week...servers all really friendly and helpful....food good and served piping hot...shame you have to ask for staff to access disabled toilets as its a glass walled lift right in the middle of the dining area so too embarrassed to ask and had to carefully navigate the stairs....but it's a good venue apart from that...

Had a fantastic night with family ,Edgar our waiter looked after us very well very attentive

Nerea was above & beyond with service. Bubbly girl!

Great food and service tonight by Nerea.

I had a fantastic afternoon 1.30 to 7pm in the evening. Me and family went for a soul Divas day the group was amazing. Lovely staff great amenities and a tasty 2course lunch b4 the the music. I would recommend the Ferry to everyone. Great atmosphere withe something happening most days. Food and entertainment was only £20.

Fantastic night, food was good, baked salmon and mascapone sauce delicious. Great party night would have danced more if we had been on the ground floor. Michelle our waitress did a fantastic job very friendly and did a great job keeping up with our fabulous rowdy team 😀

Absolutely brilliant food. Great night..food was great and host michelle was amazing...would recommendto others for a night out!

Fabulous food & service. Looking forward to next visit waitress particularly happy and helpful. Lots of glitz and glamour for abba tribute

Soup & salmon was lovely! Michelle was a fab waitress! Never without a drink. Michelle was very attentive throughout the night.

Attended a large party booking in August. We had a wonderful evening and would recommend to anyone. Our waitress was called Michelle, and she was fun, told us all the right relevant information and made sure we had a fabulous night. Thanks for a fab night Michelle!!

Michelle was lovely, very attentive and helpful. Food was good. We were expecting normal party food (tasteless) however the food was good and big portions

Played here as part of the support band, had a great time.

Great venue for smaller gigs. Food really good as well if you want the food & music deal.

Great night with the Soul Foundation at The Ferry ticket price included 2 course dinner (desert extra cost) portions were great and the food lovely and great choices a brilliant night would definitely go back So back again this time to see Shardlake Brilliant

Always a pleasure to visit the Ferry. Staff are great, food always lovely and great acts . Great value for money

Had a great night. And thanks to our waitress Clare who made us feel really welcome, thank you

We had a great night. The staff presented my father’s dessert with a birthday candle and sang for him which made his night. Thank you all especially Mona our waitress

We were with visitors from Australia, originally Renfrew, we are from Yoker, so the Ferry venue was perfect. What a wonderful experience, food and entertainment exceptional. Staff were brilliant and very attentive overall 5 stars and will recommend and be back again.

Absolutely lovely time! Our waitress Michelle went over and above, so friendly, welcoming and attentive. Truly the star of the show! The place was really busy and Michelle had a smile on her face at all times. Definitely coming back again❤️❤️❤️

Love intimate gigs in this venue.

Went to the ferry tonight for the rod Stewart night and Nerea was our server and she was fantastic. Went above and beyond and almost made sure we were looked after. She was fab. Will defo give her 101%. Thank you

Clare and the rest of the staff were very attentive during our meal, checking we were enjoying the food and making sure we were happy. The meal was nice and we're now looking forward to the show.

Great tribute acts. Choice of eating before act and guaranteed a seat or arriving at 8.30 for show.

Had a lovely meal here and staff were very nice. Great band as well Itchycoo park.

Great night staff very friendly and service was very punctual. would go back again

Great venue, staff are very friendly and helpful, highly recommend it

Great night out , excellent service, entertainment & food. Michelle was great and nothing was a bother for her . Venue also has a lift making it very accessible to all.

Excellent service. Michelle was very attentive. Meal excellent. Good night.

We were at the ferry as a group for a retirement night out, straight away our hostess Michelle couldn’t do enough to help us, so down to earth and made us all feel so welcome…great banter throughout the night… Had a fab night will def return

Food and service were great. Service from Michelle was fantastic!! Will visit again. Great for A group night out. 80s nights was fab

Watching a motown tribute act on a tv screen upstairs !!! and the tribute act was one guy on a laptop singing downstairs !! At £30 not worth it

Great venue the food is excellent and brilliant entertainment

Went for dinner and a show. Food was lovely and show was so good. Great time had by all!

The rudest staff that I have ever experienced. So unprofessional. Especially the man at the bar with a man bun and the blonde bigger woman at the front desk.

Lovely meal. Staff were very good. Entertainment was great.

What a night we had a meal then a party night. Food was delicious our waitress was Michelle very friendly, fun and so helpful such a gem to have. The service was very prompt had the food and drink out in no time at all. reasonably priced as well so will definitely be back and would definitely recommend.

Had my stag night here. The staff were all friendly and helpful and the booking staff were extremely helpful and accommodating. Depending on what you drink it can be an expensive night but definitely worth a visit

Great fun, brilliant live music and a quirky venue.

Queen tribute Worked well in the venue Id recommend it

Good atmosphere, good beer and friendly helpful staff. Nice view along the River Clyde.

Amazing food and lovely staff. Always a great night had. Have never been disappointed at the tribute nights.

Fantastic venue cheap bar good food, says it all

Lovely meal ,service excellent and our waitress Michelle was super friendly,nothing too much trouble ,and so informative. Thanks for a great night

Loved it, meal delicious, waitress Michelle so cool nothing a bother very friendly 😀 Had a great time. 👍

Went in to the Ferry recently with my husband and was massively disappointed with my experience. While the staff and venue were lovely my experience was RUINED by one staff member with a micro fringe who was on the larger side. She was rude to my husband and I and I overheard her being aggressive and patronising to her staff. It created a very uncomfortable atmosphere and resulted in us leaving earlier than we had planned due to her horrible manner. I will never be back

Food was like school dinners , the venue has seen better days and the act was like a holiday camp .

Went to gig doors open at 8.30 no mention of support act, met others outside who were annoyed that main act wouldn’t be on till 10-10.30 asked to get refund as last train home was 11 but no joy. Guess customer isn’t always right. Thanks for nothing and by the way could do with a makeover looks like a slum outside

Me and my hubby had a brilliant night the tribute band was the Jersey boys. We had a great seat at the stage the food was delicious and the staff couldn't do enough. We will definitely be back

Great music venue. Lovely meal and very nice staff.

Was very disappointed in Rod Stewart tribute he was awful worse than that even all tables were emptying very well before food was good but very expensive the only thing I can say is the supporting act was excellent I did have a video but it was so bad I deleted it would not recommend

Fab night. Really good fun. The Jersey Notes.

Had a great nite here at blondie tribute, food lovely, drinks ok priced, staff good 👍

Place is a shambles. Meal ridiculous for the price and price of drinks and measures terrible. In there from 6.30 for meal. Tribute started at 9.45 and finished at 11.20 then almost throwing you out. Also most the staff unpleasant.....my friends and I won't be back...don't waste your money.

Great atmosphere and food was lovely. Drinks I found a little expensive. 80s event was great atmosphere.

Staff are all very good mostly a couple of rude staff members but stear clear of them still had a great night. Jo and another guy behind bar were 10/10 couldn't do enought to help and have great manners thanks guys.

Lovely food good pink tribute night good service.

food not to good but staff are brilliant and entertainment 👌

We went for a two course meal followed by a Pink tribute act. Thoroughly enjoyed the night, the food was good and the tribute act was excellent.

I am a Gold Card Member, Meals, staff and Tributes are fantastic. My friends and I always have a fantastic night would 100% recommend it for a fabulous night out

Nice food, entertainment by Hotel Caledonia was excellent.

Hate getting served plastic cups but didn't take away from my enjoyment of watching Shardlake here. Would recommend...

Good sized venue for a gig, decent priced bar.

Excellent night at the Ferry. Nice meal with good service and great atmosphere.

Non alcoholic beer was very expensive

Great venue for Hogmanay! Mixed age range and a great blend of DJ and ceilidh. Recommend!

Enjoyed the hospitality at a gig last night. The service and food was good, and the gig by Eagles tribute band, Hotel Caledonia, was excellent.

We are 3 ladies in our late 60s. We found there were mainly couples and young people attending on New Year's Eve, so we moved on to a local pub. However! We thought this was a great place. Staff were efficient/friendly, drinks a good price, location easy to find, and the band/caller great. We will return for a tribute night. Plus, offering free party hats, blowers, etc. a really great idea, broke down barriers. Thanks, and Happy New Year's

Great venue entertainment food and service inside, However, security on entry pretty poor. Especially, when you’re forced to wait outside in a storm before entering two by two as the door is shut after each couple. And it gets better, on entry, declare the contents of your handbag to a male security guard. The alternative, loose out after paying £62 for food and entertainment up front! I know my rights but, felt coerced. If I had known about the handbag search and plastic tumbler drinks after the meal; I would not have booked. Just lowered the tone for me. Pity because the entertainment was amazing but I will not be back due to the verbally enacted policy. Unfortunately, their unshared policy prior to entry meant holding my rights to ransom because I had paid in advance of entry. I know I could have walked away on principle but after paying out for a date night with the hubby, it’s not easy to let anyone feel let down after planning a special occasion inclusive of accommodation for an overnight stay, parking and food over two days. We’re lucky if either of us saw change in £400 for this wee venture. Perhaps they have underestimated their target market on this one!

Been going for many Christmas’s ( large group) but disappointed this year with the service. Waited way too long for drinks to arrive ( table service to begin with) and staff huffed & puffed throughout taking food orders & bringing them. Uncomfortable atmosphere. Missed a starter and was brought out at the same time as the main meal. Worst of it they practically threw the plates down, resulting in having to eat a cheese board off the table!

The food was excellent and the service was good they did there best

Good Xmas night out. Only disappointing thing was one of the door stewards with an attitude. As soon as we entered , he was very abrupt with customers and this is not what I expected for the start of a party night. Rest of the staff were superb, great food and music.

Staff were hostile. Bags searched, pat downs it was about 7pm? For a sit down meal and drinks? Behave. Really hostile and cheeky and I ordered a drink had two sips went to the bathroom and they took it cause it was at the end of the table. I was sat there?! Absolutely shocking. Use your common sense it was essentially full?!?! Had the Christmas night out here last year and it was great. Terrible this year. Music was also rubbish.

Good value for money food was fine for what you paid. Only thing was dance floor downstairs we danced just where we sat and had a good night

Very very busy but well looked after by friendly efficient staff. Food came out piping hot. All 3 courses were enjoyed by everyone at our table. Reasonably priced. Was a wee bit cold inside but otherwise lovely night.

Great place for live music , never had any food , ,only negative is drink in plastic glasses, I drink lager, and the pint glasses are very flimsy, need to upgrade to better plastic glasses

Great value Groupon deal for meal and a show. The chicken curry was a bit processed though but ok. The band were great and the drink prices were ok too.

Great gig venue, accessability and toilets could do with some updating.

Great venue for a music turn... fantastic setting
