If you are into your craft beers/ale this is a must visit. From booking a tour to brewing your own beer! If like me you'd rather just get down to the drinking part the bar and kitchen has plenty to offer including outside terrace, beer hall, live sports events, comedy/live music/club nights and their Craft Markets (usually every 2nd Sunday check their facebook for info). Child and dog friendly.

A hidden gem of a lane that is home to a wonderful array of independent and artistic businesses. The location of the lane is behind Argyle Street and can be accessed by walking through the space between Greggs and Subway - at first it's unassuming but it opens up into a gloriously vibrant and colourful cobbled street. The lane is home to 120 artists and includes a cafe, gallery, record label and shops selling jewellery, antiques textiles, sweets and many more. New addition is Spin Pottery where you can make and or paint your own pottery - I did this recently and was a fantastic way to spend a few hours in a quirky little studio.

Parks & Nature

One of my favourite places in the city - especially on those rarest of days in Scotland where you actually get sun! Great spot for lounging in the sun or take a walk/run through the Kelvin walkway which will take you on a scenic route via the river Kelvin. Also check out the fountain!

Great night out if your after a giggle. Friday and Saturday nights attract some of UK's best comedians, other nights have up and coming talent - Sunday Sermon's fab if only for the host Michael Redmond. Be warned to get there early otherwise you may find only seats at the front and you WILL get talked to.
