The Waterloo in Glasgow City

Visited here last night. Bar staff were rude and nasty for no reason. Won’t be back. One star is too many.

Went here as last pud for brink and it was amazing the singer was out this world and we really enjoyed ower self and will be back it’s worth the money and love all the staff and went out there wayto make sure u enjoy your night out and get what u want.

Busy pub and warm and good karaoke

Great, friendly staff and punters

Lovely clean pub friendly staff very welcoming. Will come again :)

Myself and husband came in for a drink after having a day in Glasgow. This was a great time, great service, banter, and will definitely be coming back again.

Wow. What can I say about this place? We visited from across the pond, and this became one of our go-to bars. Not only do they open earlier than other gay bars in the city, they have an amazing bartender, Alison, who is fabulous. There’s also an adorable regular named David hanging about from time to time. Be sure to drop in and see Alison, and tell her two Americans sent you. 5 stars. Highly recommend.

Staff great nice music live singer and atmosphere great

Simple pleasures brought to you by the best of people. From Alison, the bar manager, to Christeen, the host and entertainment, and all the others who make The Waterloo such a friendly, vibrant and enjoyable place to be.

Went to the Waterloo and it looked like it was closed up tighter than a drum. We followed the instructions on google maps but couldn't find an entrance. Reading about this place I was excited about experiencing it but I guess not.

Beautiful old and atmospheric pub

Tried to go inside when it was still open (according to google) and we were greeted by an awful woman who told us they were closed. Not a very good impression of the gay scene in Glasgow. Won’t be coming back ever again. The most unfriendliest city I have ever had the displeasure of stepping foot in.

Some regular accused me of stealing his pint. I had the same pint from when I walked in and my friend bought me one. Said the staff saw it too. Ended up giving the guy my almost-full pint to appease his aggressiveness. Too bad, was so looking forward to this place and it soured the experience. Just because some guy is a regular and I'm a lowly US tourist, does not mean I go around stealing pints.

Went to see the infamous Robert and May Miller. Great banter and singing. Vodka cocktails were yummy!

If you haven't been here to see may miller while being jam packed in a bar you haven't lived. This was one of the best shows, and inclusive bars in glasgow I went to. I loved it here. Everyone is just here to have a good time .

An institution and one-of-the-best 🤝

I've been drinking in the waterloo for over 50 years love this pub.

Gay bar but not my scene but everyone was welcoming and pleasant though

Had a fab time in this bar. Down from Aberdeen for weekend, really welcoming, good prices, fab dj!!

Friendly gaybar near Glasgow Central station

Warm & friendly atmosphere, 1st time visiting. Made to feel welcome & "at home".

Went here last week and the bar woman/bouncer was aggressive and refused to serve us and told us to leave. Refused to give a reason just adopted an aggressive stance and followed us outside growling at us. Ended up going to a couple of pubs on the bottom of hope Street instead and had a cracking night. Can't comment on food etc but the pub was dead and had a funky smell. About all I can review in our 2 mins we had before being rudely told to get out

Great atmosphere and entertainment

Loved May Millee. Staff fantastic x

Staff and entertainment are superb. It's definitely the place to go on a Saturday afternoon

May and Robert Miller were fabulous as usual, bar staff very friendly and great service. Lovely atmosphere and lovely company. 🎶🎵🎉

I hadn't been here for a while..so I thought myself and partner would stop in. The barman looked so fed up ,and certainly no service with a smile. For our second drink, that he got wrong, he blamed my partner for it. He could see the first time what we had ordered, but brought us a totally different drink. No apology , just a very grumpy face. Very doubtful that I would come back here. There are many other pubs that welcome their customers with a smile.

placed an order for 2 wraps 3 halloumi and 2 peri chips . Order came quickly but noticed one wrap was missing. Phoned 3 numbers to get through to a worker from Nandos and asked him for the wrap that was missing he then proceeded to tell me I could only revived a refund and it would take 72 hours I told him i wanted the wrap and he hung up the phone. Terrible service WILL NOT BE ORDERING FROM HERE AGAIN

Will never put a foot in this place again I was drunk and shouted to the singer get your Boabby out and a bouncer threw me and my pal out

I was visiting with a friend & the New Years Eve compere was sooo nice!

Fairly priced drinks, great vibe, and super friendly people

Hello nice bar and love old gay even i.m young

Always have an amazing time every time I go with my Sister❤️

Google suggested this was a gay bar. The 50 year old women wailing to the 90s songs of the overly loud DJ proved different.

waterloo on friday is an actual relic. advertising a DJ that refuses to DJ won’t cater to the customers who actually request modern songs, will repeat play old songs… does someone need to hear the same abba song twice and the same celine dion song 4 times in 2 hours, when they won’t play the recent songs we request? NO! would be understandable if the clientele was responding, but if customers are requesting songs and you cut them off half way through the song because they’re different, why bother playing them at all? the fact they are customer requested means they are more welcome than yet ANOTHER abba song, that you’ll most likely repeat through the night.

Yes we had a good night, the atmosphere was good as always, a few dances around the bar. Not very busy for a Saturday night mind you.

Friends staff and good service.

Allison is fabulous. So friendly. Great wee bar. Always visit when in Glasgow 👌

It can be nice for a quiet drink and a catch up with friends during the week. However at the weekend it can be very loud and packed.

Staff was very friendly and cheery :) first time there. Nipped in for a few drinks before off to golf and was glad that was the pub we chose. Decent selection and prices good too :)

Empty. Place had the most disgusting smell, smelt like pig farm, it was really bad

May amd Robert Miller great atmosphere. Very good and friendly staff. Lovely afternoon for drinks.

Only had a couple of drinks here. Bit manky.

Just brilliant as always staff atmosphere and entertainment

Saturday with May & Robert, hilarious.

This used to be a great gay bar now it’s for hen nights straight couples and some gay guys , the have ruined the reason for this bar

Good drinks good music and great fun atmosphere what more can you ask for great place to drink

Normally Glasgow's best gay bar but the female bouncer is not a very nice person and treats people that she deems "not gay enough" terribly. Asked as I had been at a football match "what's a football fan doing in here anyway?" Because I'm gay. And a football fan. Shame as intolerance shouldn't exist in a gay bar.

Never been here before. Was a good laugh, gay friendly and fun to talk to the locals up in Glasgow.

Was here on Sunday afternoon with my friend,for the karaoke and it was jumping,lovely staff,cheap drinks And had the best nite,Will be back ...

I'm sitting in bar right now and I must say it's lost its spark but I do hope to be proved wrong xxxxx

Disappointed was closed on a Tuesday afternoon on me and my pals visit to Glasgow from Dunfermline

This is a proper pub with an atmosphere hard to beat. The clientele are easy to approach and talk to and the barstaff can't help you enough.

This place is great for a good laugh and reasonable priced drinks. Been a few times and Karaoke has been great

Went on a Friday night and was very quiet. Music blasting but only about 8 people there! Beer was ok

Discrimination as we entered, not even served our drink and got asked to leave by a woman with short hair with no reason atall, joke

Ear-splitting music on Friday night! Although their Wacky Wednesday afternoon was extremely fun and entertaining, we had to walk out after 10 seconds due to the (truly) deafening music volume on Friday night. And we were not the only ones There is no reason to dial the volume up to the point where it becomes painful, and you can forget about chatting someone up. Save your hearing. Too bad. Don't go.

Always lovely popping into Waterloo staff are great especially Alison and was great seeing Christeen as always its been a long time x

Start here and you'll make it great!

Great atmosphere and reasonably priced drinks.

Love the vibe and the people there.

Called in at this bar whilst visiting Glasgow 27th February 2023. Only a few customers in the bar, but it was a Monday evening. But what a great crowd they was. Bar Staff and the owner very welcoming Great prices. We will be back Wednesday 1st March for the Wacky Waterloo Fun Wednesday 👍

Great live music venue, good service.

Great people, lovely staff and excellent prices xx

Nice friendly pub, nice chatty barstaff.

Really disappointed have been there a few times + had good laugh...but not last night!!

After a 35 year absence. Mixed clientele, good music, good ambience

A Glasgow institution. A good 'pub' pub. Although it's classed as gay it is VERY mixed. You or old, alls welcome.

Muy entretenido lugar, vale la pena ir... Hubo un show con una sra muy entretenida y excelente voz.....El ambiente, la alegria de la gente.....insuperable

Smashing pub, great Entertainment, Staff efficient and welcoming. City centre location, busy, busy, busy x

Absolutely brilliant atmosphere, staff so friendly.

Maggie. What a bloody queen! She knows how it is. She gets the lads in a taxi, she gets the lads with the ones that fancy the.;) she’s a queen!

Just turned up and refused drinks by a very hostile lady. She refused to serve my husband stated he was to drunk. We had our cases with us as we were heading home, yes he'd had a drink but there was 3 people in there and it 4.30 in the afternoon your loss. Avoid the nasty lady and 1 star is not much for her.

Old fashionned and sooooooo exciting bar !

Had a few drinks in here before traveling home. They had karaoke on. It was very busy. People were very friendly. I'll definitely be back. Had a great time.

First time in this bar what a great place danced all day . Great bar staff they worked do hard so thank you very much ..
