The Palais — Restaurant in Scotland

Booked for a table for the football which they promoted on social media as a football night. I asked for a table with a decent view of the tv and that i would be specifically coming down to watch the game. As i arrived, we got sat right next to the kitchen serving area with 2 chairs facing away from the tv. When i asked to move to empty corner table behind us the answer was that it was reserved. Didn’t I reserve too and ask for suitable seating ?? So we ordered a few drinks which was over priced. West end prices in east end. Expect your average pint to be over £5. We sat there and watched wrestling with music on till the second of kick off as the server forgot to stick it on. As the game started we asked for the commentary to be turned up. Which we got a reply of no we don’t have have a license for that. Even though i had been in countless times to watch the football. The barman Frankie was the one serving us. They had posted on Instagram the day before with everyone clearly watching the game at the restaurant with all the chairs turned around. So we thought we’d just finish our drinks and go as it’s not what they had promoted and felt uncomfortable. As we where finishing our drinks our team got scored into. Frankie jumped up to celebrate the opposition team scoring and quickly realise that was a mistake. After getting treated differently i could now see why. We where in to watch the rangers game and the celtic game was the night before. Wasn’t like he supported Ajax, put it that way. He instantly looked as us and i said “that doesn’t make you look any better” which he replied “i know”. We got up and left. I am all for competition but there time and a place. Don’t be celebrating oppositions goals when you’re in the work place serving fans, it looks terrible and is disrespectful. We thought this would be a nice environment and a neural place to watch the football....

Palais is such a nice bar in Dennistoun - a sign of things to come for the east end. Really food drinks, nice staff but the food... People always say "don't get a pizza unless its a pizza restaurant"... But sometimes you just want a pizza!

I don't think the pizza I had was of a standard that could be considered good. It was very sloppy, very sweet and the base was burnt too much so that it was an overpowering flavour. Probably my least favourite pizza in a bar I've had in a very long time.

It's constructive criticism becuase I will be back to the bar but I think thought and care is needed to create a better pizza! The photo shows the pizza and yes you'll say "why did you eat it?"... I was hungry. And it wasn't so bad to complain about in the bar but still... Wasn't near good.

Go to palais becuase it's a lovely bar and the rest of the food will probably be good... Just...

We’ve been to The Palais numerous times and had a really good time. We arrived tonight to catch up with a friend and were met with an agonisingly annoying singer songwriter who played for three hours. We sat outside initially (would’ve been much better if there was some outside heating). We came inside and sat and tried to have a good night inspite of the music for three hours. We spent about £200 on booze throughout the night. At 11:38pm a table had ordered pints etc and when we went up to order one last round of single spirit and mixer we were told the bar was closed. On a Friday night. The other tables drank well past when we left at 11:45. The pub is so good but has all of its...
