Bar Brel – Beer, mussels and fun in the sun

"Bar Brel" Glasgow is a little enclave of Belgium on Ashton Lane. Each time I go there I feel transported back to hazy weekends in Brussels or Bruges.

The Wee Pub at the Chip – Cute bar extension

"The Wee Pub at the Chip" is an immensely popular little bar in Glasgow that genuinely lives up to its name! My choice of poison here is def the red wine.
