    The food was amazing! We ordered the croquettes, chicken tikka masala and the trifle. The food was delicious but they got my dessert order wrong and they were really generous and gave us the dessert for free - the service and hospitality was brilliant!

    An incredible space - bar, restaurant, theatre! If you want delicious Scottish food, a wonderful atmosphere and a fantastic selection of drinks head here. Try the Cullen Skink and a steak. The vegetarian options were also delicious. We had excellent, attentive and friendly service from Abby. We would definitely recommend here to all and I will definitely come back next time I am in Glasgow.

    We didn't eat here but have been to the Òran Mór for a few gigs and I like it! It's usually clean, the bar staff seem nice and the toilets are never messy...a real plus considering some of the pubs I've been to in the area! All in all, recommended.
