Well-priced modern Scottish cuisine, have a look at their pre-theatre and lunch menus for a bargain. A nice stylish place to have your first taste of haggis!

Nice mix of locals and tourists. Incredible whisky selection displayed on floor-to-ceiling shelves behind the bar (they climb a ladder to reach the ones on the top, very Instagrammable) - whether you're a whisky novice or expert, this is where you want to be. Knowledgeable friendly staff.

The best, most 'Scottish' pubs are around the Kelvingrove area; you'll find a nice mix of locals and tourists, an extraordinary whisky range and quite often live music! On Argyle Street there is The Ben Nevis, The Park Bar and the Islay Inn. They are all in the area that the Highlanders would stay when they came down to the big city. All three have free live music on Thursday to Sunday. The Islay will be more rock, the Ben Nevis more traditional and the Park Bar the most lively.

Free entry to the Saturday night ceilidh (pronounced KAY-lee) every week! Just about the most Scottish thing you can do - kick up your heels with a nice mix of locals and tourists, young and old. Don't worry if you don't know the steps, everything's explained and you get a practice run through before it really gets going! Reasonably priced drinks, friendly staff, plenty of space to dance. Come dressed to fling yourselves around and work up a proper sweat (flat shoes, nothing that can fall down or fly off - it can get vigorous!). Come and see why ceilidh dancing is Scotland's answer to speed-dating!

If only to get a photo of the Duke of Wellington statue out the front with his iconic hat... Free entry, ever-changing exhibitions, great for a rainy day. Right in the city centre so well-located for some food or drinks afterwards. Catch the subway there and get off at either Buchanan Street or St Enoch.
