The Butterfly and the Pig, Glasgow
Managing to stand out from the abundance of culinary choices available in the centre of Glasgow is no mean feat in 2021. The folks behind The Butterfly and the Pig manage to do so by creating an atmosphere that brings the pleasures of dining out to the forefront of the guest experience in unique and fun ways. From the eccentric homely comfort of the couch-bedecked interior to the hilarious menu (it’s worth a visit simply to read it), a sense of playfulness pervades the place.
The Butterfly and the Pig’s team also excels when it comes to Sunday roast - which has all the hallmarks of a perfect Sunday roast at home without the fuss and effort required to pull it off. The roasts are unpretentious and professional, with choices to suit the whole family. Take for example the macaroni cheese filled Yorkshire pudding to start, a talking point that delivers flavour and sets the perfect tone for the meal. With every dish being a hit, every tummy is full until guests are presented with the dessert menu, where miraculously space is found to accommodate a sticky toffee pudding with ice cream.
If guests don’t want to leave after settling their bill, there is no need to – the bar regularly fills with a gentle buzz as locals and tourists settle in for an afternoon of live music provided by a local blues trio that would provide the perfect setting to let tummies settle and allow guests to spend some quality time with each other while enjoying the quintessential lazy British Sunday.
Sunday roast served from midday every Sunday until sell-out – dishes vary and booking is strongly advised.

The Drake, Glasgow
The Drake is a Gastro style pub with high emphasis on quality affordable food and drinks in a relaxed, environment. With original bare brick interior walls, coal fire, covered and heated beer gardens to the front and rear, two large townhouse-style private dining rooms, and a snug bar on the upper level, what seems like a small basement bar offers much more than it first appears.
Showing all major sporting events and offering weekend brunch, local DJ's on Friday and Saturday nights and live folk music on Sundays, there's always something going on.
The Sunday Roast meal is served from 12pm until it runs out. With soup of the day with sourdough bread for starters, roasts striploin of beef, Yorkshire puddings, roast potatoes, and carrots for the main, and plum and apple crumble, toasted oat ice cream for dessert.
