very good

[weetoon, 25/09/2006] The small town where we live has very little in the way of decent eateries, so when we get the chance, my husband and I like to spend a weekend in Glasgow, look round the shops (a bit of a novelty for us) and have a nice meal out. One place we go back to again and again is Bar Brel, in Ashton Lane. Location The west end of Glasgow has an atmosphere all its own. It is a favourite haunt of the city's students and BBC types (BBC Scotland HQ is just up the road), yet it's not a student-only area. It has a very cosmopolitan feel, and a great buzz, especially for us country folks. Ashton La [more]

very good

In a lane "full of pubs and bars", Brel, situated in a "former stables" is "possibly the best". Its "Belgian theme" is in evidence in the cooking and the beers, although"not overplayed". The atmosphere is enhanced by the "eclectic" music.

excellent

The author describes the place as "a great destination" which is situated "in the heart of the West End" and is "one of the West End's most popular meeting places", ideal for a "leisurely lunch, quick drink or special evening out". The food is "high quality Belgian food" and there are "lots of bargains on offer" with a "food happy hour every day 1700 - 1900". She also says that the service appears effortless, despite "the vibrancy and attention to detail behind the scenes".
