A night out in Glasgow can be pretty amazing. From all your well known clubs like garage, polo, bamboo, kokomo etc, there's also some really nice hidden gems like flat 0/1 and bloc, and for a cheap night out you cant beat a whetherspoons! Theres a variety of cuisines to eat, with a lot of fast food places open all night, and restaurant wise there's a big selection. The Buchanan and at Enoch's centres make for some great shopping days, as does a trip to the Glasgow fort!

A very lively and friendly city with lots to do. There is a myriad of great places to eat: from great fast food restaurants to more high end restaurants, there’s food for every occasion. There are multiple shopping centres and numerous streets lined with great shops so a successful shopping trip is always a possibility. As well as shopping; you could also spend your day at the cinema or visiting an art gallery such as the kelvin grove art gallery or even just taking a walk through Glasgow green. Whatever your in the mood for, there’ll be something to do in Glasgow. Glasgow has it all.

Glasgow is not a tourist town. However, it is brilliant to be a student here. There are multiple universities and colleges so the place is full of students. There are all types of nightclubs (casual, posh, gay, hip hop, emo, rock, 80's) and bars so the night life is brilliant. Suchiehall Street is great for a night out; lots of clubs, bars, food places and very close to the train and bus station. Glasgow is also fab if you are Vegan or Gluten free with loads of cute independent cafes all over the place. If you fancy going to the movies, the city centre proudly holds the tallest cinema in the world (I think). If you are willing to go a little outside the city there are lots of trampoline parks, escape rooms, bowling alleys, cinemas, climbing centres, you name it. Value for money: Glasgow is so much cheaper than other British cities. Cheaper than Edinburgh and Aberdeen and certainly cheaper than London and Cambridge.

The city of Glasgow is definitely different from any other city I have ever been. There is plenty of hidden gems in a city that is totally overlooked by the proximity of Edinburgh. From the city centre, where you can find everything you’re looking for, starting from “bread meets bread”, the Cineworld cinema, Pizza spots like “Paesano”. The main highlight of the city are the amount of bars and nightclubs, as there’s literally one in every corner. Everything in the city is definitely a 10/10. The west end is the most famous end, where the Kelvingrove can be found, but the food in there is amazing too. Overall the city of Glasgow is a 10/10 for Bars and good food places, as there’s plenty of a lot of variety.

I think the places to eat are really good, there is a wide range of places to eat all over Glasgow- basically if you want to eat something, you can get it! The nights out are also good, with a lot of clubs having free or cheaper entire before 11pm/12am but sometimes the drinks can tend to be quite pricey esp in clubs in the centre. The shopping is also good and there is a wide variety of shops but there could be more vintage shops!

A nice city with many restaurants and bars. There are international food restaurants such as Japanese, Chinese, Thai food etc. The transportation is good as well. Shopping area is great.

I believe that Glasgow is an excellent place for shopping, from buchanan street & argyle street to silverburn and braehead, not forgetting the fort. Eating out is always a pleasure as there is many places to choose from, both independant restraunts ( grill on the corner etc.) to chains (tgi fridays, nandos etc.) and ‘fast food’ (kfc etc.)

Glasgow is a beautiful city. I have been living in Glasgow for 2 months now after moving from Australia to study at Glasgow Caledonian University. I find Glasgow really is the ‘People’s city’. The residents are friendly, welcoming and informative, always taking the time to have a proper conversation about city. The shopping is GREAT (I love Primark)! Everything is affordable and fashionable and all in close proximity to my accommodation in the Merchant city. There is also a great verity of restaurants, cafés and bars to enjoy spanned across majority of the city. However, I do find the public transport here in Glasgow to be a little confusing and EXPENSIVE! In Melbourne, we are used to using the same card (Myki) to travel on all public transport across the city, whether that be buses, trains or trams… you just touch on your Myki and off you go. Here It is a bit different, you need a different card for the train compared to the subway compared to the bus. This makes travelling a lot more difficult and much more expensive. I definitely prefer the Melbourne way in this instance. However, overall, I am loving Scotland and Glasgow in particular. Can’t wait to continue exploring the city in the coming months!

Glasgow is a vibrant city with lots of diversity in terms of shopping, food, things to do. There is something for everyone. The west end has a beautiful skyline and some amazing things to do. It is culturally diverse city with strong Scottish roots mixed with cultures from all over the world. The locals are the friendliest people in Scotland. It is also considered Scotland's party capital when it comes to nightlife. Glasgow is home to a vast majority of clubs having attractive offers all year round. It is a very student friendly city.

Lots of nice restaurants with great variety to chose from. Great shops in the city centre and more independent shops in the west end. Plenty of activities, great cinema, theatres and more unusual things like escape rooms. Also within close proximity to Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park.

There's always deals on for nights out at nightclubs with themed events, lots of shopping opportunities along the main street with the usual brands of stores. Cutesy little areas of Glasgow at Merchant City and in the West end where you can explore all the bargains for food and drinks, cafes, pubs, etc. You won't be bored if you have people to hang out with in these places, otherwise the cold and dreamy weather can get on your nerves.

Fairly nice place with friendly people in the city who are also welcoming in to their City. Glasgow is clean, but it rains a lot which could be annoying.

Love living in Glasgow! You never run out of new places to go for food or drink. Also, since moving here I have been to multiple concerts as it is so much easier to go. They are just right at your doorstep!

Friendly city with lots to do. For those who love shopping and fine dining, the city center is filled with the biggest high street brands. The city has a rich history with many museums and historically significant buildings and monuments for all those culture and art lovers. Something to do for every type of person.

Glasgow's night life is amazing! Pubs and bars everywhere. Had dinner at a few restaurants and the food was very delicious. Great quality and reasonable price. There are lots of shops at Argyll street as well which includes jack wills, lush, Nike, Adidas, etc. The supermarket is also very easy to access and the price is super cheap! Always shop at Aldi, Lidl and Poundland. Back in my hometown the price is way more expensive than these supermarket is was nearly double the price! Really great place to travel and live in! Highly recommend people to visit here for at least a week and should go to pubs and bars because Glasgow is famous for its night life and also you can hear bagpipes on the street engage into Glasgow's culture! And also it's very convenient there are subways and bus station at st Enoch and buchanan street

Regarding nights out glasgow has plenty of options and never boring, food places could be better or less expensive since I'm on a student budget but the overall vibe is great and a must have experience. Travelling from Glasgow is easy as it gets its only a fiver to get from Glasgow to Edinburgh the 2 must see cities in Scotland !

There's plenty of great spots for a night out dancing or drinking for everyone. There's a Latin bar called mango and el barrio, loads of pop clubs including bamboo, Kokomo and garage and many others. If you are looking for retail therapy there is a long strip of shops and 3 inside malls in the city centre. It is super easy to get around between the west end where the university is and town, most things are walking distance or there is the subway which is relatively cheap too. The people are super friendly and helpful. The only negative would be the cold and windy weather !
