Housed in a magnificent baroque style building in George Square, I found this to be a not too bad Wetherspoons. Beer quality, I had a special made for JDW by Strathaven Brewery, was excellent and the service was actually quite slick considering it was a busy early evening. Entering up the stairs from St Vincent Place you come to a big almost perfectly cubic room with a large square centrally placed island bar lit by a glass dome far above. All around the walls are corinthian columns and on the architrave are statues. The walls are mainly decorated with pictures of Scots worthies of the last few centuries and some framed bank notes reflecting its former life as a bank. There are numerous alcoves off the main room giving space for a quieter drink. Not many neds or suchlike in there when I visited so I was pleasantly surprised.
