Hi
Going to Glasgow next weekend, have never been before.
Looking for advise pleeease on best places to shop,eat and drink.
Thanks
Answer:
In the city centre, the Buchanan Gallery is a good place to start - all the usual suspects and a good HM. Further up Sauchiehall Street there's a reasonable Primark. There are some posher shops (Hobbs, Karen Millen, etc) down Buchanan Street and in Prince's Square (which used to have some reasonable cafes), and Argyll Street has a really good branch of Topshop, a Faith, Shelley's and so on. In the West End, there's a cute eclectic mix of shops in De Courcy's Arcade (on Ashton Lane at the back of Byres Road), plus a couple of vintage shops.
For food, there's loads of choice. I think there were some reccies about good Glasgow restaurants in Food and Drink a while ago, but here are a few of my favourites:
Byres Road is full of little cafes, not all of them Starbucks ;) Little Italy is a West End institution and used to do good pizzas. Just watch out for all the computer scientists from the department up the road!
--Cafe Andaluz (west end, Ashton Lane): Nice tapas, cool decor and not too pricey.
--Naked Soup (west end, Byres Road): Good place for lunch, with good quality soups, salads and stews (varies daily) and lovely smoothies :)
--Stravaigin (west end, Gibson Street): Mixed, interesting menu, friendly staff, informal but smart. I recommend the Thai mussels!
-- No. 16 (Byres Road): Tiny little restaurant tucked down at the Dumbarton Road end; very cute and cosy. It serves really good food, mostly Scottish-with-a-twist. The menu varies quite a bit, but their brownies are excellent!
-- Cafe Gandolfi (Albion Street, I think): Another Glasgow institution with cool furniture and an interesting menu. It gets very busy around lunch time.
-- Gamba (city centre): One word - seafood!
-- City Merchant (Candleriggs): Mostly Scottish, with a strong emphasis on seafood
-- Grassroots Cafe (Charing Cross): Entirely veggie menu and a very good one at that. Their cooked breakfast (available until mid-afternoon on weekends) is great.
There's also a Wagamama on Nelson Mandela Place, and OKO, a sushi bar (but that's definitely gone downhill lately). You might find a few more here.
As for places to drink, I very rarely go out to bars so can't help much there, alas.

Answer:
Great review Geek_Kitten!
Will know where to go to next time I visit Glasgow (stayed there for a month in 96 but would say it is quite different nowadays! ...always seem to go straight to Edinburgh when visiting Scotland though :) )
Answer:
Aw, thanks! :bow:
It has changed a lot over the past ten years or so, mostly for the better :) even if some of it is just gloss over the grit underneath! It supposedly has the best shopping in Britain outside of London though :whoop: so it's worth visiting for that reason only I suppose!

Answer:
Geek kitten you are making me miss Glasgow so much :( Is the Primark on Sauchiehall the old TK Maxx?
Enjoy your break Bluesteel!
TS baxter jeans

TS baxter jeans
Ello there!
Was just wondering has anyone got the Topshop baxter jeans?? I've got my heart set on them and keep picturing them with different outfits etc:o . I wont be able to go and get them for a while sooo i was wondering if they really are as nice as they look on the website? AND it would be really good if anyone could post pics of those jeans on, so i could see how they fit etc!
thank you!:)
Answer:
LauraJane and Mimicat def have them - I know Mimi loves the fit of hers and says they fit very true to size. Not sure if that helps...
Answer:
Oh no, sorry to out a dampener on things but I bought these last week (posted on them a few days ago actually) and the pockets are really low down at the back giving an impression of a saggy arse!!
(These are the greyish denim drainpipes aren't they? just to be sure!)
It's interesting you say you are picturing lots of things to wear them with 'cos I couldn't find one thing! You're probably just more creative than me though :p
Taking mine back next week actually and exchanging them for the indigo skinnies.
Answer:
I'm hoping to track a pair of these down as well. I find TS jeans hit and miss fit-wize though - but there again I have got a rather large behind which I don't think they really cater for! :o I hope they fit because I love the colour of them - and they'll save me £100+ that I'd spend on teh Sass and Bides :rolleyes:
Answer:
Wow I came online to start this very thread, seemed to be beat to it! :p I'm not sure about them so am buying a 28 and 30 waist online and praying that my thighs don't look too hideous in them :eek:
