    Popped in for a coupla Guinness after an afternoon in "THE CHIP" over the road. Great pint of the black stuff. Used to come "up the lane" all the time. Nice to see everything open again.....

    I love this bar. Its Irish themed with local acts on almost daily and the beer is priced comparatively with the others around it. Most people would just say it's like any other Irish bar but theres a few things that make this place deserve its 5 stars. The staff are always smiling and helpful a quiet day is a good day in here just as much as a busy one is. The selection of drinks is very good considering the limited bar space avaliable and the decor has loads to catch the eye and start a conversation. A good place for couples meeting and small groups. The atmosphere is sublime and you would always love this establishment with a smile. Gin selection is great. Ask nicely and you might even get a nice shamrock in your Guinness.

    A wee stop off on a dreary Saturday afternoon. Pub located on Ashton Lane, staggering distance from Hillhead underground. £4.30 pint of tennent's lager. Worth a visit.

    On their website they clearly state, that Irish traditional music is from 3pm to 5pm on a Sunday. We paid nearly 20 quid to get to this pub as we live a fair bit out. We got there and the staff told us that the music was not on until 9.30pm. This is complete false advertisement according to the website and I believe that this should be refunded for the hassle. There is absolutely no excuse for the website to mislead anyone into thinking that they can definitely go to such a niche event without any consequences. The staff made excuses such as "oh its not long open". It had nearly 2 years to update and amend any necessary changes. I expect a swift response to this situation.

    My absolute favourite pub in Glasgow!! Always an amazing night at the best live music bar in the lane. It's a tiny pub with a big heart. The staff, atmosphere and singers are all amazing, and it's never a dull night any day of week. They also pour the best pint of Guinness and have an amazing beer garden to enjoy on a sunny day. Can't wait to visit again soon =)

    I’ve been performing here for almost 14 years and I cannot recommend this place enough! A cozy atmosphere in a perfect location with some of the best in live music every night of the week, as well as the friendliest staff! 5 stars all round!

  • 4/5 Derek G. 4 years ago on Google
    An old favorite of mine. It is a bit on the pricey side but not overly expensive for the west end, a typical Irish themed bar, and can be very busy at weekends, have covered smokers area and good sized beer garden, for when the weather is good

  • 5/5 Nelson M. 1 year ago on Google
    As a non-native Glaswegian this has to be one of my best discoveries.

  • 4/5 thefirstcut 1 year ago on Google
    Lively, friendly Irish bar with good music on an evening. Always good service and pints aren’t crazy expensive. A bit of a tourist venue and loses a star for being cash only

  • 4/5 sylvanna l. 4 months ago on Google
    Nice place, more a man's bar. I did like this place. needs to get on the cocktail 🍸 to get ladies in. Women spend a lot on these products, and not everyone likes Guinness

  • 1/5 dylan R. 7 months ago on Google
    Awful experience. This pub should be reviewed under health and safety, extremely overcrowded and dangerous at night time! Definitely will not be returung. Little regards for safety. Clearly when your partner has to scream and push (people either refuse to listen, stuck or cannot hear) others so we can actually escape this overcrowded venue, something is seriously wrong. Took us almost 6 minutes to get to the main door when attempting to leaving. Never ever again. Hardly a great experience for anyone get barged into left, right and centre with drinks spilled onto you.

  • 5/5 Andy J. 10 months ago on Google
    Great night made better with some amazing live music from Maria McAveety. So much energy and great tunes that she got the whole bar dancing and singing. Beer, music and dancing! What more do you need. 😀 Worth noting that the bar is cash only for some reason which is the only downside.

    Love this friendly pub. Beer garden was great even though it was raining heavy. Still kept dry. Better outside than in due to the weather being so clammy

  • 5/5 John M. 4 years ago on Google
    Great beer garden, terrific atmosphere. Definitely the one bar you have to visit if you're ever in Ashton Lane.

  • 5/5 Ana O. 4 years ago on Google
    Best pint of Guinness I have had outside of Guinness brewery. Love to visit every time I am in Glasgow.

  • 4/5 Chloe F. 4 years ago on Google
    Big beer garden so ideal for summer weather, but guaranteed to be busy if the sun is out, which means there's not much space. Ideal place if you're looking for a beer and also serve cider and other drinks, but they only take cash payments. There are bank machines near by though.

  • 5/5 Tam K. 4 years ago on Google
    Excellent wee pub. Had a 2 course lunch of home made tomato and basil soup with fish and chips. Food was fab and only £8.50! Will certainly return.

    An enchanting Irish bar, great folk singers through the week with a hubbub of busy joy at the weekends. The first pub to properly do a beer garden back in the day!

    If you are looking for a great night with live music then this is the place to be in the west end. Staff are fun and friendly including the doormen who are a step above the rest.

👍👍 An excellent experience at Miller and Carter tonight. The food came out quickly and was so incredibly delicious - the steak was cooked to perfection and the beef dripping sauce was to die for! All steaks come with house fries they can up upgraded to chunky chips or sweet potato fried but we honestly...
