    We took advantage of a 5pm deal for a birthday lunch for my husband and as usual it didn’t disappoint! The wonderful fresh bread just sets you up for what’s coming and always interesting flavours. The pork belly starter was so moreish and the duck main course a delight. As usual my husband loved the Cullen skink and his chicken wrapped with ham and served with haggis was declared to be wonderful. Coffee and petit fours completed our meal as we were too full for a dessert! Taking a large party there for our Golden Wedding!

Outstanding seafood & Scottish luxury

The Buttery is one of Glasgow’s oldest, most enduring and celebrated restaurants, well known for its relaxed atmosphere and unique interior of oak panelling, stained glass and wonderful mahogany and marble bar. Under the hands of the Two Fats team, it has earned plenty of awards and great reviews – not least for the five star quality of the service.

Eating in Two Fat Ladies at the Buttery is pretty special at any time. One of Glasgow’s oldest and best loved venues, every meal here feels like a memorable occasion.

Daily changing menus

Outstanding seafood is of course a strong feature on the menu, but there are also plenty of meaty (and meat-free!) delights.

Individual dishes may vary depending on season and what is available from suppliers but typical starters might be the warm smoked duck salad with a pomegranate vinaigrette or the oak smoked salmon and mini Thai fishcake with a spinach and lime purée.

Typical main courses are the fillets of sole with brown shrimp, lemon and flat leaf parsley butter or the pressed pork belly served with black pudding and Puy lentils.

Leave space for desserts such as the glazed lemon tart with lemongrass scented sorbet or the steamed pear and walnut pudding with caramel ice cream.

Central transport links

Whilst being centrally located on the border between the city centre and the West End, Two Fat Ladies at The Buttery is in a residential area, a two minute walk from Anderston train station. There is ample parking and quick access to the M8 motorway.

It is a common belief within the restaurant industry that dining is a type of performance. Here at 5pm, during our visits to various restaurants, we’ve spotted the same sign at the door of several of the kitchens, the last thing the waiting staff see before they go out to the restaurant floor – “Smile. You’re going on stage.”
