Stravaigin, located on Gibson Street in the city's West End, is an institution in Glasgow. Well-renowned for its food and drink offer it has won a raft of awards over the years.
The venue describes itself as “A relaxed, lively space serving experimental, worldly food, and traditional Scottish measures.” While the word Stravaigin is an old Scots word that means ‘to wander aimlessly with intent.’
Interestingly, the venue was owned by the Clydesdale family for over 20 years before they sold their business in 2022 to Metropolitan Pub Company, which is owned by Greene King.
The ethos of the venue hasn’t changed and after a tasteful refurbishment the Café Bar, Mezzanine and The Cellar continue to serve up food and drink sourced sustainably, both globally and locally.
Its traditional Scottish food continues in popularity with dishes on the menu including Stravaigin's own haggis, neeps & mash tatties; smoked mackerel, Irish boxty, smoked potato mousse, dulse pickle and large plates with Glenfeshie Estate venison haunch, tenderstem broccoli, smoked potato, dukkah and Loch Melfort sea trout, heritage carrots, wilted choi, nori butter.
