Urban Bar and Brasserie

Our dictionary defines the word ‘urbane’ as meaning ‘courteous and refined in manner’.

Add in ‘no mean shakes in the kitchen’ and it is a description which would also fit Urban Bar and Brasserie on St Vincent Place.

Head Chef David Clunas heads up the kitchen and serves classic dishes presented in his own inimitable and contemporary style.

The menu focuses on seasonal and, wherever possible, locally sourced products.

Today’s Big Deal is for two people to enjoy a three course meal from the seasonal autumn menu in Urban Bar and Brasserie, one of Glasgow’s more sophisticated restaurants.

City centre elegance

Once home to the Bank of England’s Scottish HQ, Urban Bar and Brasserie has retained its dashing good looks.

Decked out with wood panels, stunning flower displays and ornate cornicing, it is rather an elegant city centre spot.

This review was left recently by a diner on Urban Bar and Brasserie’s 5pm entry. It is brief and to the point:

‘Great food. First class meal. Excellent value for money.’

Autumn is harvest time

Available Sunday to Friday, this offer would be perfect for a working lunch, pre-theatre meal; afternoon shopping break; a romantic night out or a lazy Sunday afternoon lunch with friends or family.

Autumn is harvest time when Scotland’s natural larder is at its finest.
