Bacchus

For the Ancient Romans, Bacchus was the god of wine, dancing and good times – a combination which has remained unsurprisingly popular ever since.

Togas are no longer necessary but you can have a fine time with today’s Big Deal on a sharing platter plus cocktails for two at Bacchus bar in Glasgow’s Merchant City.

A popular fixture on Glassford Street, Bacchus is a relaxed, friendly joint with eye-catching, contemporary decor.

Happy diners

From TripAdvisor to Bacchus’ own 5pm entry, the Merchant City bar has attracted great reviews. This one from TripAdvisor is short and admirably to the point:

‘Delicious food, great value. Stopped in for a quick something to eat late afternoon… very pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and size of the portions. Very interesting menu, nice staff, we will be back.’

A weekday lunch with a cheeky cocktail; a mid-afternoon snack during a shopping trip or an after work catch-up with a friend – this offer would suit all sorts of fun occasions.

Delicious sharing platter and a chilled cocktail – enjoy both with today’s Big Deal at Bacchus.
