The Clydeside Distillery, Glasgow’s first dedicated single malt whisky distillery in over a century, has announced the opening of its whisky bar.
First touted late last year, the ‘elegant and relaxed’ bar is the result of a refurbishment of the distillery’s café, which is now offering an extensive selection of drams, including signatures like Stobcross, Napier and the exclusive Voyager Club bottling.
The bar menu also features beers, wines, spirits, soft drinks, hot beverages and light bites.
But whisky is where the new bar’s focus lies, and guests will be invited to savour neat serves, curated whisky flights and inventive cocktails.
The bar is open to both Clydeside whisky tour guests and the general public, with the aim of becoming a versatile hotspot in a square mile that includes the OVO Hydro and SECC.
“Our new whisky bar is a warm, inviting space where visitors can explore our classic Lowland style whiskies and exclusive releases, as well as drams from other regions of Scotland,” said visitor centre manager Bridgeen Mullen.
“We’re delighted to share this news with Glasgow and beyond.”
Sited on the historic Queen’s Dock by the River Clyde, the Clydeside Distillery has been a popular visitor attraction since production began in 2017.
The bar is intended to enhance the distillery’s appeal as a ‘must-visit’ destination, complementing the specialist whisky shop and interactive tours. Opening hours are 11am until 5.30pm, seven days per week.
