Glasgow restaurant
The Duke's Umbrella is a Superlative Collection gastropub at 363 Argyle Street in Anderston, a short walk from Glasgow Central. It aims for honest pub cooking done with fine-dining care: elevated classics, shareable plates, local ales, seasonal cocktails and a considered wine list in a relaxed public-house setting. Group Innovation and Development Chef John Molloy shaped the food offer. A July 2022 Dish Cult piece quotes him on giving gastropub food the attention it deserves, and notes house-made haggis, Bernard Corrigan fish, bar snacks such as pork vindaloo croquettes, and crowd-pleasers including fish and chips, sausage and mash, and Sunday roast. Vegetarian and vegan options are noted on the Dish Cult listing; event pages say the kitchen plans around dietary needs when told. Book online via ResDiary on dukesumbrella.com/reservations (also listed on Dish Cult). Dish Cult lists the room open 10am–1am daily, main menu noon–10pm (last orders 9.15pm), brunch Sat–Sun 10am–2pm, and Sunday roast from noon. CAMRA lists noon–midnight every day, pavement outdoor tables, dog-friendly service and Glasgow Central about 350m away. Semi-private rear space seats about 40 (60 standing); exclusive hire up to 80 seated or 140 standing, including civil ceremonies via the Superlative weddings team. Sister venues in the same Glasgow collection include Glaschu, Gost, Maison by Glaschu, Bluedog, The Delphine, Cuvée, The Noble and The Clubhouse. Instagram @dukesumbrella.

I can't say enough about this place. One of the best meals we had in our 10 day trip to Scotland. Great Thursday night live music during dinner. Doesn't look like much from the outside but inside the vibe is really great. Loved it. Would definitely return.
Read on Google MapsWe came here on my 38th birthday. The food was excellent as was the Organic wine we had. We shared a Haggis Quesadilla to start. It was quite large you could have it as a main. I actually preferred this to the main we had. We then moved onto the Haggis Neeps & Tatties each as our main. It was great. Not 100% traditional but a nice modern twist on it. We spend £81 in total for 2 people to have a 2 course meal with a bottle of wine. That's fairly reasonably priced.
Read on Google MapsI made a last-minute reservation for a mid-afternoon lunch. Best decision I’ve made during my trip to Glasgow! Paula, the hostess/waitress, was so friendly and welcoming. Gave me great descriptions of the food and make me feel like I was family. They had the Lonesome Whistles playing some fun tunes. The atmosphere and decor was so cozy! I love the pea and ham soup with soft warm sourdough bread. I got the Iberico pork with chips. Flavors were top-notch! Will visit again next time I’m around!
Read on Google MapsFood was awesome. Super tasty. Good vibes. "Dark academia" like decor. Servers were super kind. Pea and ham soup was a highlight. Would highly recommend!
Read on Google MapsSunday roast fabulous, live music from Phil, piano acoustic covers, reminded me of Joshua Kadison. Staff attentive and competent, busy and worth booking ahead! Well worth the walk we had from the modern art gallery, in the pouring rain, building fascinating, look up once you’re sat down. Just enough of the industrial look to the decor, chesterfield booths with studded tables. Food matched expectations, recommended to us by a make up artist in the VIP lounge at the OVO Hydro last night, grateful for the chance meeting and the tip off. A wonderful Sunday spot.
