Bar 91 is a relaxed neighbourhood bar and restaurant at 91 Candleriggs in Glasgow’s Merchant City. A fixture of the area for more than 27 years, it combines casual dining, sport, music and a sociable setting that welcomes dogs as well as people.
The menu moves from full Scottish breakfasts and weekend brunch into burgers, small plates, pizzas and Mediterranean-inspired mains. Vegetarian, vegan and gluten-free choices give groups useful flexibility, and the kitchen serves through the evening on opening days.
Sunday roasts add a weekly comfort-food special, including a vegan version, while the regular menu works for everything from a quick lunch to dinner with friends. Locally sourced ingredients feature across a broad selection designed around unfussy, generous bar food.
Craft beer, cocktails, wine and proper coffee support the food, and live jazz, blues and retro music help shape the atmosphere. Table bookings are available, with deposits sometimes required for larger groups. Guests with allergies should confirm current preparation with the team.
Address: 91 Candleriggs, Merchant City, Glasgow G1 1NP, Scotland
