Finsbay Flatiron, Kelvingrove, Glasgow

Situated in Glasgow's West End area the Halt Bar appears quite promising from the outside,but on this occasion the limited drinks choice let it down.The barman was friendly enough and there was a smart dark wooded central horseshoe bar but the 4 casks had there clips turned around and the only actual draught available was Tennants Lager and Magners Cider,which for a Friday night was very poor.

The Halt Bar is a rather shabby one-room corner bar on the busy Woodlands Road. There is a U-shaped bar with various Victorian fittings, some original and some repro by the look of it. The feeling is one of a rather run-down business, and the complete lack of any welcome by the staff could be one explanation for its being empty of customers. Only one ale on, Deuchres IPA, which was not particularly enjoyable as it was badly kept. Unless you live nearby, I can see no real reason to come here.
