Glasgow is pub city - we have some of the finest boozers this side of the UK - and quite possibly across the whole of Britain.
A lot of these pubs retain so much of their original features, that stepping foot into one is like walking back in time - if only the prices could do the same.
The Campaign for Real Ale(CAMRA) recognises that a lot of pubs in the UK are so historic, that their cultural worthiness is equal to that of any statue or tourist attraction.
There’s some very unique pubs in Glasgow - so much so that CAMRA included 12 of them in their list of the top 120 of ‘Scotland’s True Heritage Pubs’ guide published in 2018.
Whether they feature unique 60s interiors, old school bar fronts, or loads of cosy wee whisky snugs - there’s plenty of Glaswegian pubs to choose from.
Here’s the 12 Glasgow public houses listed in the CAMRA guide - and why they were included!
9. The Old Toll Bar (1892)
Described by CAMRA as ‘Glasgow’s finest pub interior; The Old Toll Bar was built on the ground floor of a three storey tenement from 1860 and remodelled into a pub in 1892–3. | The Old Toll Bar
10. Steps Bar(1938)
Steps Bar in the Merchant City is a great place for fans of both pints and art-deco architecture - as oft do those two groups intersect - as the interior has barely been updated since it was retrofitted in 1938. | Contributed
11. The Laurieston (1960)
Described by CAMRA as ‘one of the most remarkable pub interiors in the UK’ - The Laurieston still features the near exact-same interiors as it did from its (circa) 1960 remodelling - with CAMRA remarking most on the pubs ‘island bar style'. | Contributed
