Been several times and this is the best restaurant in Glasgow IMHO. Food is amazing, service is low-key yet attentive, cocktails are also really good. I literally have zero complaints. Sitting at the kitchen bar adds to the occasion as you watch the chefs work. 10/10. Raw beef was my favourite followed by the squid. But honestly it was very close between everything.
We had the most incredibly memorable evening at Bar Brett. The food was perfect and so was the service. We were celebrating our engagement plus a birthday and the Bar Brett experience just added that extra special touch. For me the raw aged beef and the lamb special were the highlights. For my fiancé the gnocchi and beef were his personal favourites. The cocktails were incredible and we would highly recommend coming here for any occasion! The team knew in advance of my birthday but when prompted by my partner that he had actually proposed then proceeded to offer further congratulations (signed card) and offer of champagne. We are fortunate enough to know Kris (chef) who also gave us his congratulations (and privacy) adding to the experience. Could not recommend Brett highly enough. Regards One very happy couple x
Fabulous “wee” restaurant/bistro or whatever you want to call it.
Great food, drinks, & wines you will not find anywhere else.
The staff & chefs revel in being asked about the dishes and sauces, so don’t be shy to ask!
Tried Brett for a Saturday lunch and it didn't disappoint. Understated and relaxed but everything was perfect. The cocktails to start were great and there is a really well priced wine by the glass menu that was perfect for a lunch meal. We sat at the bar and got to watch the chefs work which adds to the experience. The food was faultless with the highlight being the venison, chanterelles and seed granola. Can't wait to return for dinner in the future.
Late review here, my partner and I wandered in while in the West End a couple of weeks ago. The food was so good, I forgot to take pictures. Every dish was better than the last but we were absolutely obsessed with the potato dauphnoise! The GIANT scallops also deserve a shout out. The wine and whisky lists were extensive and again didn't disappoint.
The entire serving staff were incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful. We loved watching and listening to the kitchen and expo staff work so well as a team. Coming from hospitality backgrounds ourselves, we really loved seeing such a well run establishment.
Absolutely can not wait to come back, and experience Brett again!
This was my first visit to Brett and having eaten at what are regarded as some of Glasgow's best restaurants I can honestly say the dishes sampled pretty much exceeded anything I've eaten elsewhere. Well balanced complex flavour profiles perfectly considered to give each dish a totally unique character. A menu with enough variety to suit any palate and meat and fish cooked to absolute perfection. Staff were attentive, knowledgeable and passionate about their dishes. I'll be back.
Excellent food with enough options to satisfy meat and plant-based diners. Each person in our group had a different favorite, from the falafel in tahini sauce and the beetroot to the roast cauliflower and the chilled coconut rice pudding. The cocktails are so-so and whisky selection is limited. Be sure to make reservations ahead!

Brett is a truly amazing restaurant. The food is incredible and the staff are so lovely and passionate about their work. We had some wonderful conversations with them, and the wine list is fantastic. The sommelier gave us some recommendations to pair with our food and her input was spot on. They made my husband's birthday super special with their amazing service and food. We are both vegetarian. They were very attentive to this and there was plenty of beautiful food for us
Upmarket and vibrant with outdoor seating, a sophisticated drinks menu and fairly complex food offering. A little different from surrounding venues, in a good way.
Nice location on GWR and decor is stylish and modern. Staff were pleasant and efficient. The menu seemed a bit over the top to me. But that’s an entirely personal opinion…
Fab experience on all fronts. Welcoming, casual, excellent food and wine, and a view of the kitchen. Top marks
My husband and I came here for drinks and snacks. The atmosphere and service were very good. Hubby enjoyed oysters very much. I enjoyed the cauliflower but would've liked it with a slice of sourdough.
Very large selection of alcoholic drinks ( probably more than 5 pages) and a tiny section of non alcoholic ☹️ so husband enjoyed himself very much and I ended up drinking sparkling water.
We booked a table for 5 people and on arrival we were shown upstairs. My worst nightmare is a table with bar stool chairs. I hate them as I am very small. I made a fuss of course and asked if we could possibly sit somewhere else. The waiter was very helpful and quickly made other arrangements for us. The service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious. We had a large main each and shared 3 sides between 5. Could have probably had more sides and bread tbh. One of desert was nice but nothing to write home about but the other which was a honeycomb type mousse was amazing. We had two bottles of wine and a few beers. The total bill was £237 plus a tip. So not a cheap night mostly due to the cost of the wine. Honestly I would recommend the food but I do feel the wine is severely overpriced.
Fabulous dining and wining experience in Glasgow. Probably the best food in the city, definitely the best service, incredibly passionate and knowledgeable front of house. The food is just a bawhair behind, the raw beef possibly the greatest, most intelligent reworking of a tartare I have ever eaten, the lamb so-so, the much raved about dauphinoise underseasoned, the squid superb. Vegetarian plates were handled brilliantly. But the standout was the wine and the wine service, barring an overly young Barollo, which was our fault (never order a sub 20 year old Barollo) , the wines were superb, and served with knowledge and passion. We had it large and did £260 for two but on the whole it was quite brilliantly done. Maybe the wonderful patron could spend a few quid on making the window tables level? But those few nitpicks aside, it's superb, memorable and deserves to succeed.
We had an exceptional meal at Brett last night! Every plate was memorable and the service was just lovely. We'll definitely return :)
a total gem. get a tasting menu, let them pair your wine and you shan't regret it! it's some of the best food i had in town, and the setting is as tasteful as it is laid back. open kitchen, attentive service, i couldn't ask for more.
So good. Really friendly service. Small but perfectly formed seasonal menu. Lots of small options if you want to share & talk, or have something bigger too. Can’t wait to go back.
One of the best meals of my lifetime!!! We ordered the olives, sourdough bread, carrots, tomatoes, KFC cauliflower, gnocchi and cod. I don't know what made the olives so magical but I've never had such delicious olives! Each dish was unique and flavorful! The standouts were the olives, tomatoes, KFC cauliflower, gnocchi and cod. My husband greatly enjoyed the duckfat butter which accompanied the bread (I don't eat meat). The service was exceptional and we really enjoyed sitting at the bar to watch the chefs in action!
I waited for coming back to Glasgow and I heard about it on social media. Perfect evening: value, good from the starters to the desserts.
Not to mention the kindness of the working staff.
It was worth the wait!
Can't wait to get back there!
