Happy to sell a bottle of procecco and beers, then aggressively come up the table and paid drinks fro. customers. Very aggressive staff who shouldn't be in the hospitality business Don't go they are horrible people

Went in with our small rescue dog. Bar staff made it clear that we weren’t welcome. Very rude and don’t like dogs. Really dodgy high people in there including staff. Won’t be going back

Absolutely cracking pub!! Live on Union Grove and even if I didn’t, I would make the effort to come here. The staff have always got a smile on and give you a good conversation. Normally local pubs can be a bit cliquey, but every time I’ve been in, everyone chats with everyone. And it’s very dog friendly!!! It’s what pubs should all be like. They have mastered the friendly feel to a pub and well done to all!!!!

Couldnt pay with cash! First time in my 60+ yrs on this planet a bar has refused actual money. You need to get Export back on draught - the current selection of ales is poor. On the plus side, the barmaid was a gem. Very helpful to us.

Visited a couple of times on our recent trip to Aberdeen and can't recommend the place highly enough. Whilst we didn't eat ourselves, the food on the tables did look excellent. Loved the fact it was also dog friendly (and I made a new pal in Meg, one of the dogs in there). Staff were super friendly too and the place was absolutely spotless. All in all a really good atmosphere and a place we will happily visit again on our next trip to the Granite City.

My niece booked a table for 3pm Saturday for food and drinks, booking was excepted.when we arrived couldn’t find our table so asked a member of staff who got the manager. We were told booking had been cancelled that morning which was not true. We managed to get a seat thanks to two young gentlemen who gave up there table for us. When time came to order food although limited choice ordered hot dogs, can only describe it as disgusting three out of four thought same.place very noisy and so packed people almost sitting on your shoulder as you eat .wouldn't recommend won’t be back.

Paid a visit to The Pig’s Wings at The Glentanar Bar as part of the food firms residency at the bar. The food was really good - especially the Boar B-Que sub, not to mention the Hotwurst - however this hot dog is pretty spicy!! Try out the chicken wings and the loaded fries, you won’t be disappointed. A great place for a pub lunch or if you’re looking to grab something quick.

I popped in on the way home. I was made to feel very welcome and offered a wide range of beers from the Manager Andy. I conversed in conversation with some regulars whom were entertaining knowledgeable and good fun. The Glentanar was a bit daunting a few years ago but now they really seem to have their act together. they have the Pigs wings in their kitchen now so the food will be on point as the guys at The Pigs Wings are really great at what they do. in summary nice place, good company run by a great guy and to top it of by offering Pigs wings food. The Glentanar is definitely one to visit in the west end.

Came across this because they were promoting a "Kitchen Takeover"?? on social media. What a lovely place to visit. Maybe a wee bit traditional and the animal print is questionable, but wow, the food is great. Difficult to describe, but my sub was to die for. Lovely staff and a real welcoming atmosphere, I would definitely recommend a visit, especially if your a visitor to the City and want a local experience.

I went into the Glentanar on Saturday 10th August, 2019 and bought drinks at 1am. By 1.10am the barmaid was screaming at the customers to drink up and leave. She even took glasses out of customers hands. Her behaviour was ridiculous. No bar should service drinks that close to closing time. I presumed they closed at 2am because they served me the drinks at 1am. Anyway my suggestion would be that they don't serve drinks after 12.45am that way customers would have 30min to finish their drinks. I think the behaviour of the barmaid needs to be addressed also. We will all very sober although she spoke to us as if we were drunk.

I wouldn’t even give them one star! Absolutely ridiculous the way the staff were shouting at customers! Shouting at everyone to get out! Pity they haven’t heard of manners and just asked people politely to finish their drinks up. It’s embarrassing to run a company like that! The managers should be appalled that they are employing these people! Snatching peoples drinks is a new level of low!

Brilliant Turkish restaurant - wonderful because you know exactly what you are going to get - the menu never changes but it doesn't have to because it ticks all the boxes. Kalamari = 5 star. Steak and Prawn kebab = 5 star. Baclava = 5 star and beyond. And that was just my choices. No-one left unhappy. Great Turkish coffee too btw - strong to the point of drying out your mouth - got to be tried with the tiniest pinch of sugar.
