Overview

Malones Irish Bar sits on Sauchiehall Lane, a city-centre Irish pub run by Irish publicans with sister bars in Edinburgh, Leith and Aberdeen. Live music seven days a week (Irish trad Mondays and Fridays), big-screen sport, and a late licence that runs to 1am Mon–Tue and 3am Wed–Sun. Food is pub Irish with a Glasgow twist: spice bags with Irish curry sauce, burgers, fish and chips. Kitchen closes at 8pm. In February 2025 they opened what they billed as Glasgow’s first Guinness rooftop bar (open year-round until 11pm), with its own bar on sunny days and HD screens for sport. Book online except on Old Firm derby days. Student and loyalty discounts (20% off food and drink with signup; loyalty Sun–Thu). Function room with private bar and stage for parties. Cowcaddens subway and Sauchiehall Street buses are the nearest transit.

Went in for drink after dinner, there was Celtic game on so unless you were there for food, you had to sit upstairs or roof terrace, so no live music up there. Roof terrace was nice. Loved they had proper Tayto crisps too. Good atmosphere. Loved the newspaper wallpaper in toilets.

We ate here today, and I have to honestly say it was delicious. The best thing I ate in my three days in Scotland. I'd love to come back next time. Greetings from Germany

We visited Malone’s Irish Bar last week when in Glasgow. We stopped in to watch the Liverpool v Spurs match. They serve a really good Guinness. Great atmosphere and friendly service. Only downside was the kitchen closed at 7:30pm but they allowed us to order in food which was nice. We really enjoyed our visit to this pub.

Been waiting to try Malone's since I heard they had opened their Guinness roof too bar. Excellent pint of Guinness great quality of food, they had no cheese but the dish did not need it. We were there early doors so not that busy, but will return for a night visit and can imagine it's jumping. The staff was helpful and very friendly. Hidden away from the main streets but well worth the walk from both queens street and central stations to experience this unique bar.

Real Irish pub with live music and great atmosphere till late. Great fun place. Entrance from Lane not from Street!
