Drum & Monkey is a revered Glasgow pub, typified by its flamboyant 1920s atmosphere and nod to opulent days of yore. Nestled on Vincent Street in the heart of the city, the pub dispenses a giddying selection of real ales as well as an array of accomplished dishes that are infinitely satisfying. The air of grandeur that would have pervaded this former bank can still be sensed, with gilt-framed paintings, polished brass and rich, dark wood everywhere you turn. Owned by Nicholson’s, who are renowned for their collection of unusual British pubs, Drum & Monkey certainly fits the bill. Although the building looks unconventional, the service you can expect is of the typical Glaswegian sort - lively and welcoming. If the busy, chattering bar gets too much, patrons can retreat to the slightly more sedate lounge and dining area. Here, seasonal dishes such as Scottish Salmon en Croute are served up along with a selection of more traditional fare. Popular for parties, events and celebrations, Drum & Monkey is positively alive at weekends as locals and tourists alike indulge in some serious banter and drinking.

This place is fantastic! Everything from the building itself, to the staff and beers. I'm hoping to come back and try the food but I can't see it being anything but great. They do real ale here, and for the less beer orientated they do ciders etc. Very much recommended.
