Arts & Culture

I haven't been to the Hydro yet - Glasgow's newest concert venue - but my guests tell me it's fabulous! It's on the site of the SSEC, our other famous venue, just a short walk from the apartment.

Cute little cafe promoting 'a bygone era where tea and delicate china were a way of life.' It's at the end of a cobbled lane full of artists studios and music rehearsal rooms. Gorgeous in the summer.

Meat eaters will be in steak heaven at the trendy Porter and Rye. Recommended for their steaks; try the Bavette at £14 including a side and a sauce. Great choice of wines and to-die-for desserts.

Piece comes highly recommended. A 'piece' is an old-fashioned Scottish word for a sandwich. This uber-cool little cafe makes the best sandwiches and salads in Finnieston. The cakes are great too. Yum!

Just steps away from the flat. Cool little place offering much healthier breakfast options than some of the surrounding cafes. The bagels look amazing. Sit in the window and watch the world go by...

Steps away from the apartment, this is a great place to sit outside with a beer in the summer or lounge about in one of the cosy booths inside. Cheap pub grub, an informal atmosphere and good music.

Everything Else

It's a gorgeous park with hills and a river running through it. I like to take some nuts and apples to feed the squirrels. The trees are spectacular certain times of the year. Be at one with nature!

One of my favourite haunts for vintage knick-knacks. Norman is the king of shabby chic, always working away transforming lovely bits of old furniture. Tell him you are Lou's guests - he loves to chat!

Drinks & Nightlife

Famous for it's cheap vegan menu and reggae music, this informal bar is relaxed and loungey. It comes to life with a bang on Thursday nights with the arrival of the soundsystem, if you fancy a skank!
