Cosmopolitan bar and kitchen in West End

Originally a Victorian railway station, 1051 GWR is a cosmopolitan bar and kitchen on Great Western Road in Glasgow’s Kelvinside.

Designed in the Beaux Art style by J.J. Burnett, the building underwent an extensive refurbishment before relaunching as 1051 GWR towards the end of 2015.

The renovations revealed original sandstone walls while the newly installed train carriage-style booth seating underlines the railway heritage of the category B listed building.

1051 GWR is the first restaurant in the UK to be owned by a restaurateur with an MSc in Gastronomy and this is reflected in the carefully designed menu.

The experienced chefs, brothers Steven and Chris Caputa have 40 years food preparation experience and, along with their kitchen team, are skilled at designing dishes that allow the quality of the raw materials to shine through.

Happy diners

1051 GWR has quickly attracted lots of enthusiastic reviews on its 5pm Dining page where it has a combined rating of 4.4/5 from more than 180 reviews. These recent comments are typical:
