Arches Cafe Bar

Descend into the bowels of one of Glasgow’s hippest arts venues for a vibrant and edgy atmosphere. Contemporary interior design by Tim’rous Beasties has transformed this A-listed railway arch into an innovative space, frequented by suits, art types and pre-clubbers. The mood changes as the day progresses and laid-back lunches, intimate pre-theatre dining and fast-paced evening snacking all prove popular. The weekend crowd is up-tempo, lured in by DJs and the regular Sunday club night. Lunch-time snacks favour fajitas and duck salad, whilst the fine food menu, served in the secluded restaurant area, is chic with a strong showing of Scottish seafood. Food promotions link with the venue’s programme of events, and quality local ingredients are the order of the day; hand dived scallops and lobster feature as house favourites. The bar offers a decent selection of cocktails, beers, wines and some snacks. People watching is optional, but the Arches is strong on happening events which keep the place lively.
Due to recent changes in licensing regulations, unfortunately we cannot allow children under 18 on the premises after 8pm.
