BROWNS BRASSERIE
0141 221 7828
1 George Square
Glasgow, G2 1DY
Enjoy breakfast, lunch, snacks or dinner at this
relaxing brasserie. An ideal meeting point for a bite
to eat, a more formal dining experience, or simply
as a place to gather with friends over a drink or
cup of tea and some light snacks. The impressive
Victorian architecture of this ex-General Post Office
building is easily spotted in the heart of Glasgow’s
fashionable George Square, while the interior is
suitably sophisticated, but with a contemporary
twist. Once settled in the dining area, you can
choose from traditional favourites, brasserie
classics, lighter dishes, hearty Sunday roasts and
seasonal specials. Browns’ location makes it well
placed as a much needed refreshment stop during
afternoon shopping trips; whether you prefer a
traditional afternoon tea, or some oysters and
champagne, you’ll be well catered for. Live piano
music is a regular feature at the brasserie too,
making for a truly refined and elegant evening.

Located in the right in the centre of Glasgow, The Ivy
BuchananStreet servesmodernBritish& international
inspired classics. Never knowingly under-glitzed,
The Ivy’s Glasgow branch is no exception. The bar
is all art deco bevelled mirrors and polished marble,
while the soft furnishings bring the sunshine even
when Scotland’s weather isn’t playing ball, with
bright jungle prints and clashing velvet patterns. The
globetrotting menu merrily dances its way around
world, with burgers and steaks sitting alongside
curries and lobster linguine, using local Scottish
produce whenever possible of course. There’s a
wide-ranging drinks list that caters for any eventuality.
On the other hand, affable staff are personable and
professional and really go out of their way to make
the experience feel special. This isn’t a fine dining
experience, but that’s not what The Ivy brasseries are
trying to achieve. They bring glamorous surroundings
and silver-standard service within everyone’s reach.
