Glasgow’s only rooftop restaurant, The Carlton George Windows serves modern Scottish food. Windows is on the seventh floor of the Carlton George Hotel and its useful city centre location means that it enjoys spectacular views of Glasgow’s skyline. While the vista from Windows could be a potential distraction from what’s on your plate, the inspired work going on in the kitchen means that you are unlikely to be gazing out over the rooftops for too long. Glasgow’s skyline is eye-catching but so is the food at Windows.

The modern Scottish menu changes every four weeks at Windows which means that the restaurant can always offer something new to its Glasgow regulars as well as the hotel’s guests. The seasonal nature of the menu means that these example dishes may be different on your visit to Windows but the underlying ethos of using locally sourced ingredients will be the same. This could mean highland venison served with Stornoway black pudding stovies, buttered cabbage, caramelised fig and a chocolate jus or a starter of ham hough and crubeens served with a celeriac remoulade and an Arran mustard chutney. Whatever dish you choose, it will quickly become clear that it is not just the views that keep customer returning to the Carlton George Windows restaurant in Glasgow.
