Didn't have food. But what a night at the machair. Blues music playing live right in front of you in the bar. Amazing band on. Great pint of Heineken. Definitely the best pint in the west end. Bar staff were all welcoming and very friendly. I had a great night and I will definitely be back.

Cracking wee bar with fantastic food, a great selection of drinks and live music. Couple of guys pitched up next to us with an accordion, guitar and a fiddle and they set an amazing atmosphere for the bar. Live music is something far and in-between you find in Glasgow these days so I'm very welcome to more bars doing this.

Show up for the Trad sessions (currently on Tuesdays). I've been all over Ireland, even play fiddle myself, and this is one of the best I've heard. Not as crowded as it should have been! Food was solid, too.

First visit to perform as guest singer at Tea Time Blues on a friday. Lovely venue, cozy warm atmosphere. Great food and friendly staff. Win,win all the way. Have visited many times now. still a great venue. There is a new menu now which is fine but has unfortunately dropped off a couple of personal favourites steak pie and loaded fries with Black Pudding and haggis pieces .Tonight i did enjoy one of the new items Deep fried Cauliflower florets in korean sauce. Very delicious indeed. Months on and Machair continues to be a great venue with lovely food and music most nights of the week. Always a joy to perform there. Must have one of the best selections of whisky in the city. Great atmosphere. One of my top go-to pubs in Glasgow. Christmas dinner special today beautiful turkey with all the Trimmings and Venison Wellington with cranberries.😏 Unfortunately, there has been a recent change. Music gigs have had to be cut back cos of the current greed of energy, fuel and especially food suppliers. Despite this Machair is still an outstanding venue with great food. Alas, music is only the last friday of each month now 6.30 till 9.30 pm🥺

Very busy outside when sunny. Inside nice dark and cool. Beer is OK, nice selection of whiskies. Later a folk band was playing.

Public House situated on the North side of Great Western Road not far from Kelvinbridge and about 5 minutes walk from the Subway station. Good choice of drinks and an excellent menu. Tried the Machair burger and can't fault it. Highly recommended.

Used to be crossing the Rubicon, they've found their identity and do tasty Scottish food and exceptional craft beers. Really impressed, also benefits from being in the sun and having decent outdoor seating.
