The 78

Very chilled out Sunday vibes and enjoying the best vegan tacos I've ever eaten. Previous carnist I've not seen anything quite like this. Absolutely superb. The most flavoursome food with the PERFECT amount of spice to make this a great meal.

Brilliant little pub in the student quarter of Glasgow serving craft beers and vegan Mexican street food. The tacos were excellent (try the enoki filling), but the smashed potatoes stole the show. Good selection of beers on draught; I liked the Helles and the Red Nitro.

As a bonafide carnivore I was sceptical of an entirely vegan menu but I was blown away by the quality in flavour I experienced. Cauliflower wings were incredible. The texture was hearty and rich and the ranch sauce had tang and zing. Loaded fries were huge and had all the salt and spice you could hope for. I don’t think I’m converted but it’s now a great option if I want to be healthier or impress my vegan friends and family. A really homely vibe and one to try if you are looking for a different culinary experience from the norm

Definitely recommend this place for both meat eaters and vegans. The menu is 100% vegan with loads of options - from pork to chicken to fish. I was also really impressed with the vegan cheese here. It wasn’t plasticky at all and tasted like regular cheese. We had the loaded nachos which are super tasty and good value for money. The padron peppers with salsa verde are also defo worth getting. Taco wise, we had the al pastor (vegan pork) which was really good and pretty spicy. The banana blossom (aka fish taco) was alright but I think I’d try something else next time. Loads of fun beers here too and a casual cosy vibe inside.

My most recent visit to the 78 was awful. The food portions were tiny, a £13 cocktail was full of sugar, and no booze. The hipster staff were too busy pretending to be cool, than focusing on service. We won't be back.
