About Granary Glasgow
A quiz night, a rugby match, a pint after work — Granary Glasgow in Shawlands handles all of it without breaking stride. The staff are the reason people come back: Jane and Roberta get name-checked repeatedly, and the kind of timing that has a chef walking a burger out personally is not an accident. The food punches above the pub-grub bracket — the spicy chicken quesadillas and sharing nachos are what people are writing about right now, alongside the mac and cheese that keeps appearing in conversation. A good cross-section of Shawlands turns up on any given night, young and old, and the quiz nights are worth arriving early for.
