Glasgow welcomes new west end pub offering fresh take on Scottish comfort food

A well-known Glasgow pub has reopened after closing its doors and 'rebranding'.

An exciting new pub offering a fresh and fun take on Scottish food and drink has opened in the west end.

Taking over the former Van Winkle site on Sandyford Place, the much-anticipated Gael & Grain is now officially open, following a full venue makeover and rebrand led by Lomond Leisure Group, in collaboration with Star Pubs.

The team at Gael & Grain say it will blend traditional home cooked favourites with "playful twists", with signature dishes including the standout Haggis Tikka Masala and the Irn Bru Cheesecake.

Chief marketing officer of Lomond Leisure Group, Sophie Mallon, said: “We are absolutely delighted to see this project come to fruition in conjunction with Star Pubs. Gael & Grain represents a celebration of Scottish heritage through food, drink, and music.

"This collaboration has allowed us to create a unique space that truly embodies the spirit of Scotland, and we can't wait to welcome everyone to experience it.”
