Overview

Buck's Southside is the Buck's Bar branch at 1021 Cathcart Road, in the Mount Florida area. Glasgow Live reported in February 2022 that it was opening as the third Buck's Bar, after Trongate and West Regent Street, serving the chain's "popular fried chicken, hard shakes and cocktail offering". The building used to be the Sapori D'Italia restaurant. Buck's says the venue is "less than two minutes from Mount Florida Station and a short stroll to Hampden Park". Inside there is "a split-level restaurant, cosy booths, large tables, and bar seating". It is open 7 days from 11am till midnight, with food served until 10.30pm, and under-18s are allowed in until 10pm. Offers listed by Buck's include an Express Lunch Monday to Friday and 40% off cocktails Monday to Wednesday. You can order takeaway by phone (0141 648 4841) or in person, 7 days a week from 12 to 10pm. Buck's says it fries in rapeseed oil, has a non-gluten-containing ingredients menu, and asks you to "ask about Halal chicken" if you need it.

THE BEST chicken burgers. The chicken is massive. The flavour amazing. The chips are great. The American cheese! Everything. Service was great last time we went (we were walk-ins and it was busy but they found a table for us quickly). Service is friendly and the aesthetic is done really well. Constantly craving their chicken burgers. Shout out to the salt and chilly burger!

I came in a group including one guy who is gluten free and allergic to dairy. The staff said they had an allergen menu for him, and gave him a complicated list of allergens rather than a clear menu. We all ordered burgers, but when the food was ready the staff came to us to say that they were wrong and a gluten and dairy free burger wasn't actually available. Because he could eat almost nothing on the menu, the gluten free person just had to sit there and watch us, because the staff had obviously waited until the rest of us had food to tell him about their mistake. We would have left if they had told us sooner. It was insulting that they had the audacity to give me the card payment machine with suggested tip options, as if there was any chance of giving a tip.

Food was great. Service was quick and server was down to earth, which made the whole visit even better! We’re thinking of coming down for one of the live music events, Great spot for comfort food with attitude.

Changed my order up and got Mac & Cheese, huge mistake. The sauce was 90% siracha sauce and half the pasta seemed missing. Really disappointing as it was a take away and I didn’t have time to return, it was completely inedible. Would stick to the burgers.

This place is BUCKIN BRILLIANT!! My second visit, the first with my dog, rock hound Sonny, who, may I say was treated with as much care & respect as the hoomans, given water & biscuits & A LOT a lovin on arrival by Dana, the sole server, safe to say he loved it too. Friendly & attentive our whole time there, Dana seated us quickly in a very comfortable booth with plenty of space for Sonny to spread his paws and even before the food arrived she had placated my need for all things Guns n Roses by bringing me a Use Your Illusion pillow!! 🤘🏻😆 Dana then took our order & what seemed like no time at all our food arrived. We got “Classic Chicken And Waffles” & “The Big Smoke Mac Waffle” . You better ready yourself for a plate sized super soft buttery waffle, delectable non greasy, tantalisingly tasty fried chicken, the cheesiest of cheesy macaroni & Grade A Canadian maple syrup that I could drink all on it’s own. (And did when I got home!) - cos we had left over’s to go too!! Warning: portion size = HUGE. This is proper stuff people. If you love chicken. If you love rock music. If you love good service. BUCKIN GET YERSEL TAE BUCK’S BAR!!!! (Southside) Delicious, reasonably priced food in a rock lovers heaven. AAAAAND … although we didn’t partake, the JD is only 3 quid!! Cannae beat it. I’ll definitely be back. Y’all should go too!! See you there🤘🏻😎 …. (Thank you Dana for your kindness and hospitality)
