Adventure DJ sets here on occasion. brelbarrestaurant.com Time to Play mackintosh House macLeod Highland Supplies and Kilt Shop There are a lot of fancy places to buy kilts in Glasgow, but none have the scrappy charm and vintage appeal of this blue-fronted shop on Bridgegate. The selection includes bagpipes and drums, five ranges of tartans, and accessories like sporrans, spats, sgian dubhs, kilt pins, and garter flashes galore. scotbagpipes.com The Ubiquitous Chip Choosing from the menu at this locavore go-to wasn’t easy: The lapsang souchong–smoked salmon and the venison haggis with brown crab velouté had me undecided. Fortunately, a 100-plus selection of whiskies helped narrow my appetite. Don’t miss the bowl of thick crunchy chips. ubiquitouschip.co.uk The arches No matter what your The arches all That Is Solid and all That Is Coffee photos courtesy of seeglasgow.com; all that is solid photo by wasps studios, south block, glasgow; mackintosh house photo by the hunterian, university of glasgow 2012 age, it’s a crime to visit Glasgow without seeing a band. Venues abound, but the cavernous space under Glasgow’s Central Station is my favorite, and it’s known for spotlighting emerging indie acts. Best part: There’s plenty of ergonomic arch space to lean on for looking cool when your tired legs prove older than your spirit. thearches.co.uk all That Is Solid and all That Is Coffee Not your average pop-up shop, this combination independent bookshop, design and furniture showroom, and artisan espresso bar lures Glasgow’s bespectacled creatives away from their studios. It’s a sun-filled space where visitors can display, sell, sip, gather, read, and collaborate with like-minded arties. allthatissolid.co.uk Blythswood Square Hotel Harris Tweed fabric and Hebridean seaweed are Scotch classics gone contemporary at this stylish hotel. The former can be found incorporated into the rooms, the latter in the spa. The attentive staff delivers great service infused with that authentic Glasgow warmth. townhousecompany.com/blythswoodsquare Nice ’N’ Sleazy and The Pot Still Don’t let the name put you off: Nice ’N’ Sleazy bar (nicensleazy .com) attracts the young, scruffy, and beautiful for chatty pints and indie jukebox sessions. Or try the slightly more grown-up Pot Still (thepotstill.co.uk), a copper-hued pub dating back to 1835 that serves cask ales and hundreds of bottles of scotch whiskies ranging from peat to sweet.
