More information on City Merchant

This restaurant specialises in local cuisine and wonderful seafood dishes. You can even choose which poor lobster from the tank is going to appear on your plate. Very popular for celebrating festive occasions, City Merchant is good at providing graduation specials and such like. It's in Glasgow's main business district so often caters for office parties and informal business meetings in the function room downstairs, which can be hired for parties of 20-65. The menu and wine list offer equally extensive (and tempting) choices. Booking is strongly advised, although at lunchtime you may be lucky enough to find a table. It is undoubtedly most renowned for its fresh seafood but vegetarian and meat options are also worth tasting and the traditional decor and lively atmosphere make it a winner with tourists.Disabled Access.
