    We have been for trivia night (Monday 8pm) and taco Tuesday - both great times to be there! Dog friendly. Nice outdoor seating

    Always enjoyed this pub for its outdoor space. It's one of Glasgow's more subdued venues to go for a wee pint through the day as it's tucked out the way of the city centre bustle. The own brand beers are lovely too.

    Table 28 on a sunny Tuesday in The Locale. Not a bad place to be. Staff are lovely and the bar is spacious enough to accommodate groups and yet not feel empty in quieter moments. It’s not got much in the way of competition in the area and maybe suits a slightly more mature crowd than the rest of Sauchiehall Street. Outside there are around 4 high level tables overlooking a larger covered area which is probably best utilised in late afternoon or evenings as it doesn’t really get a lot of sun. Whilst I didn’t eat the dishes coming out looked appetising and were reasonably priced giving me a reason to return If you are in the area it’s well worth a visit

    Came for a quick drink in a large group and was seated down quickly which was great. We ordered through the app but had to wait a good 10/15 minutes which was not ideal. Prices are not fantastic but not awful.

    Great drinks and a fun vibe. Was very busy and warm inside but the outside area was nice and spacious with heaters and shelter from rain

    Was just here for some drinks so will need to come back and try the food but service was excellent and friendly. Good pint and nice cocktails. Perfect spot out the back for a beer garden to sit and enjoy the sun on a nice day.

    A lively and welcoming pub. Only just across the motorway from the madness, but feels like it's in a different (and more civilised) world. Lively enough to be interesting, quiet enough to have a conversation. Good beer and by the look of what we saw being made, good cocktails.

    Best beer garden in the town! Brilliant beers, food, and all the staff are all heavy sound too.

  • 4/5 Phil B. 4 years ago on Google
    Dog friendly. Ok bar, nothing outstanding to report, highlights are a smashing outdoor beer ‘garden’ to the rear and fairly reasonably priced drinks.

  • 4/5 Caterina B. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice outdoor area. Food is nice, especially the manchego croquettes, yummy. Service is quick and friendly, cocktails were good although some of them quite small. Not impressed with the menu app to order with your phone, very fragmented and difficult to explore.

  • 5/5 mrkskdr 1 year ago on Google
    Great wee bar for food and drink, the upstairs bit does get a bit hot when the hearing is on but otherwise it's a great bar. Food is amazing and drinks are priced reasonably. The staff are all sound too!

  • 4/5 Tim P. 1 year ago on Google
    Funky bar; I feel young here. Slightly pricey (£5.90 for a pint of Pravha) but being cool comes at a price.

  • 5/5 jonny m. 1 year ago on Google
    Cool spot. Great beer garden. Great food. Do it!

    SUPERB VENUE IN ALL RESPECTS My wife and I attended an evening wedding reception here which had around 100 invited guests from a range of ages. The entire bar, and good sized rear patio/barbecue area was made available to the party. What made it stand out was the attention to detail. The owner and staff were fabulous. From the friendly Steward welcoming us at the door, the very efficient bar staff ( and there were plenty ), DJ, and barbeque chef, everyone and everything was ready to go, and nothing was a problem to them. Due to this, the only queue I saw were guests rushing up to get seconds at the barby! The food was hot, freshly cooked and mouth-wateringly delicious. It was a fabby night and I highly recommend The Locale.

    The proximity to the city centre, very easily commutable, great place to host a party. Love their salt and chilli cauliflower, portion size used to be much bigger before though! Loved their extensive choices of shots!

  • 5/5 Noreen L. 1 year ago on Google
    Incredible food - will definitely return. Great atmosphere, friendly and efficient staff.

  • 5/5 Pav S. 1 year ago on Google
    We had our work's Xmas night out here. The service was exceptional!! Staff were very friendly and very attentive. The food was tasty and value for money, with no Xmas menu in sight- thank goodness. Fab range of cocktails and drinks, which we were able to order and pay for from our table. I would highly recommend- well done team Locale 🎉

  • 5/5 Thomas C. 1 year ago on Google
    Really enjoyed having a few pints here and catching up with friends. It’s not really the sort of place you’d go for a mad one, but was good for a chilled night out. Prices are a bit high but kind of what you’d expect for a West End establishment. Highly recommend their Locale Pale Ale!

  • 5/5 Becky R. 1 year ago on Google
    The food is delicious and we regularly go for Taco Tuesday. Also recently went for the comedy night which was great. Nice cocktails and friendly staff. Definitely recommend.

  • 5/5 Marcus F. 5 months ago on Google
    First time today for Taco Tuesday, although not the first time at The Locale (for drinks or food). Really great portion sizes, especially considering it’s a deal on a Tuesday, and very tasty tacos. We had the chicken tacos (super), monthly special BBQ cauliflower tacos (super), fish tacos (we’d prefer more sauce), and chicken loaded fries (amazing - best loaded fries we’ve had). We had a table at 6pm and all finished eating by 6:50pm. Food was quick to come out. All the staff are really friendly. Recommended.

  • 5/5 Amanda M. 11 months ago on Google
    Came here after a lovely walk around Glasgow West End & The Botanical Gardens. Food was outstanding! I had the adobo chicken and fries - they were delicious! Full of flavour and spices and the fries tasted perfect, I cannot explain how delicious they were! My friend had the chicken tenders and demolished them and a side of Mac and cheese. Great location, brilliant staff and good prices.

    We went for Taco Tuesday. The other reviews said there could be a delay in orders; fortunately we didn't have any. Plenty of drink options. The food prices were really cheap, but the tacos weren't up to the hype that was left by our friend. Maybe because it was soft tacos, that didn't work out for me. But they have good mains. Chicken asada with fries was really good. Good spot to hangout with your friends. Do book a table on Tuesdays, as it can get crowded.

    Came here tonight after booking a table on the website itself only to find that the website had booked us outside in 1 degree weather at a smoking table with us having absolutely zero confirmation of this when we were booking. We cannot sit outside at a smoking table as we have a 6 month old at home who we don’t want to get ill or have second hand smoke from. What an absolute disgrace. To make things worse, we were told by the waitress that tables were ‘fully booked’ however there was at least a dozen free. My partner had a chef who works here recommend to go, but after that experience we won’t be back. Having to plan somewhere else to go now! Avoid. Edit: your response is a complete & utter joke. Your manager was messing around at a bar, NOT checking for another table. I’ve sent you a booking confirmation that says NO WHERE that this was an ‘outside’ option. My review is not ‘unfair’ but your response is. How dare you. Your ‘heated’ garden was nothing but blankets in the freezing cold. I’ll be patiently awaiting the day you’re shut down for good!!

    Best pub in Glasgow...amazing food and drinks. Dive Bar downstairs is always fun too. Great music, staff are really friendly and accommodating.

  • 4/5 Jamie M. 4 years ago on Google
    Good for a drink on sauchiehall st, but the service is quite slow when it's busy.

  • 2/5 Cameron .. 4 years ago on Google
    Nice inside, pipes clearly havent been cleaned sadly and at £5.40 each youd expect better, near undrinkable metallic nonsense

  • 5/5 Mark M. 4 years ago on Google
    Great atmosphere, great menu, and fantastic setting in the centre of Glasgow.

  • 4/5 Nick L. 4 years ago on Google

  • 3/5 Stevie H. 3 years ago on Google
    It was just alright. Plastic cups inside the bar. Not that great to be honest. Many bars using proper glasses.

  • 4/5 Salim T. 4 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Service is nice, but prices are a bit high. A bit far from the city center. (Original) Servis güzel, ama fiyatlar biraz yüksek. Biraz şehir merkezine uzak.

  • 5/5 Martin C. 4 years ago on Google
    Amazing food, popcorn mussels are out of this world. Fantastic range of beers, amazing service! Will definitely be back to try the lunch options

  • 2/5 M C. 4 years ago on Google
    They say they are always happy to go off the menu, but God forbids you ask for a long island. Tried the old fashioned which was half a shot of whiskey without any bitters. Nice place, nice people but poor execution on the drinks

  • 5/5 nakuru h. 4 years ago on Google
