Put Glasgow in your Pocket!
Disarmingly blending sophistication and earthiness, Scotland’s biggest city is one of Britain’s most intriguing. Glasgow is a good-time town behind a sober facade. Upright, handsome Victorian buildings have been subverted: offbeat basement bars sit under lawyers’ offices, churches become galleries, restaurants occupy former trade guilds. The combination of edgy urbanity, underdog solidarity and the residents’ legendary friendliness is totally captivating.
Including:
- Top Sights
- Eating, Drinking & Nightlife
- Festivals & Events
- LGBT
- Explore Glasgow Guides
- And more!

- Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2020As a Glaswegian I wanted to know what had changed and what was new in my hometown. This book had it all. I like the size of the book it would be easy to slip into your purse. Although I still have family in Glasgow I wanted to know what was new in Hlasgos so I could ask my family to take me there!

5.0 out of 5 stars Really useful pocket sized guide
Used this recently on my first visit to Glasgow. Read it before I went, then took it everywhere with me. Used it for map, opening times, advice and places to eat and visit. Excellent, concise and relevant.
