20 Recommended places to dine in Glasgow
We visited Glasgow in February for the annual Celtic Connections Festival and couldn’t decide where to dine. It’s no wonder, as there’s such a choice of restaurants in the city. According to Trip Adviser, there are over 1950 listed restaurants to choose from.
To help with our search, we decided to ask our Boys Eat Scotland followers for their top recommendations for eating out in Glasgow. Twenty restaurants received lots and lots of foodie love and came highly recommended. To save you time searching for great places to eat in Glasgow here’s our followers top twenty (in no particular order!)
