Blackfriars Bar

Great selection of beers, for people not from the uk they have really nice ‘cellar temperature beers’ great to try if you’re not sure on the ‘warm beers’ they certainly won me over!! Awesome cider too! We also had lunch on day too and it was all really delicious!

Been there for ales. Enjoyed it. So my parents.

Great place for a quiet pint before the rush. Always got great guest ales, free to wee sample, and the bar man knows his beers. A selection of daily newspapers to boot!

This large open space bar serving a good choice of Real ales is a must do if visiting Glasgow. Good food and regular live music compliment this friendly pub.

Great atmosphere, with good selection of cask ales at decent prices

Love this place! Great haggis balls and a very friendly (and pretty) bar keep.

I don't find the chairs particularly comfortable, but as an Ale drinker, they've always had a good selection.

Great beers. Nice atmosphere. Staff very kind, friendly and professional.

It's a pub. It does what it says on the tin. The staff are really really nice, good bands and pub quizzes regularly. Central spot in the merchant city for trendy points.

Great real ale pub with very friendly staff who were happy to offer samples and talk about the beers.

Staff really friendly, good beers (free house), nice layout, good atmosphere. best pub in the merchant city.

Couldn't have been more friendly. Good advice on choosing an ale and made us feel very welcome. Nice atmosphere and great selection of beers. Highly recommended!

When we lived in Merchant City this was our local. Food is just standard pub grub, but you go there for the beer and the vibe. Always a good mix of people. Bands are pretty good also but the volume was always played way too loud for my ears and prevented chat.

Star deducted for discovering on our last visit with Monty that it is not dog friendly.
