Paisley is the place to be these days, we've been saying it for years, that the Renfrewshire town has a criminally underrated food and drink scene - hosting some of the very best pubs and restaurants in the West of Scotland.
People say Glasgow's the friendliest city in the world, we'd go as far as saying Paisley's even friendlier. Today we're done overlooking Paisley in favour of its bigger and bolder next door neighbour, today we're taking a look at some of the best food and drink spots that the town has to offer.
A few months ago we looked at the heritage of Scotland's biggest town - you can check out the history of Paisley through old pictures by clicking here!
Check out our list below of the 8 best pubs and restaurants in Paisley - did we miss out your favourite? Let us know in the comments!
1. De Beers - 59 High Street
De Beers has to be our favourite pub in Paisley hands down - between the incredible bar staff, phenomenal punters, and live techno tunes - what more could you want?
2. Japan Street Food - 9 Renfrew Road
Japan Street Food opened back in 2017, and is been consistently popular with the people of Paisley for nigh-on 7 years now. Offering Ramen Soup, Katsu Curry, Teriyaki & sushi, get yourself down there!
3. The Bungalow - 15 Shuttle Street
The Bungalow looks pretty unassuming from the outside - but make no mistake, this is one of the best intimate live venue spaces in the West of Scotland. Be sure to check out a local band here and marvel at the acoustics.
4. Jam Jar - 16 Shuttle Street
Jam Jar is a lovely wee restaurant on the cobbled Shuttle Street - in the summer you can even enjoy some al-fresco dining. There's a huge menu, even featuring half and half pizza and pasta - but whatever you get, make sure to get a cheesecake for dessert. It's loved by locals for a reason!
