Byres Road in Glasgow’s West End is one of the best known streets in the city which has a vibrant food and drink scene which is ever evolving.
International travel and hospitality magazine Time Out named Glasgow’s West End as one of the coolest neighbourhoods to live in the world with Byres Road being at the heart of it. Speaking about the area, the travel guide said: “Glasgow has changed. Whatever bad rep this portside city might once have had, it’s now one of the UK’s most exciting places to be – and nowhere in the city is cooler than the West End.
“With a healthy mix of students, families, and creatives, the community here is ever-evolving and ever-involved. It’s gorgeous to look at too – make sure to stop and take in the view of the gothic University of Glasgow, which towers above Kelvingrove Park.”
