The Griffin — Restaurant in Scotland

I have never felt more angry regarding the treatment of my friends who arrived in this establishment ahead of the rest of the group. After two alcoholic drinks each they were told they were not being served any more alcohol as they had enough..! Neither ladies, in their 50’s had any alcohol before entering the premises. Extremely offended and embarrassed is an understatement. The deputy assistant manager made the call and would not change the decision which was totally baseless. Had we been able to get food somewhere else we would have left however decided to have the food as planned prior to our theatre event. Wish I hadn’t bothered, the food was mediocre and hand cut chips looked and tasted like they had been reheated numerous times. ...

Would never return to this bar. Absolutely appalling service. Asked the bar man for a Brockman's gin (which I was given without question around 3 hours before, prior to the show in the king's theatre) he looked at me with a blank expression, wandered around the bar then said "we don't have that" I explained I'd had it just a few hours earlier and explained what flavour the gin is. "We don't have it and that's it" was his reply whilst shoving a menu into my hand. I explained it's a berry flavoured gin and he said whilst sniggering "yes we have lots of flavoured Gina and we don't have that one!" His whole attitude and tone was a disgrace! I left immediately after being...

I really liked this Pub. Not only was the atmosphere very friendly, the music low key and the staff lovely, the food was exceptional as well. So much so that we returned no less than three times during our stay in Glasgow even though we had a wide variety of other Pubs to choose from. It is full of locals thus avoids any touristy vibe while I liked very much. And for those who require it, there were many gluten free options available that are more than just an after thought but delicious. If you are in town and fancy a pint of beer from Isle of Sky, this is the place. Oh, and the Sunday Roast of beef.... it brought a tear of joy to this...
