Overview
Whistler on the Green on Greendyke Street – beautifully crafted traditional local bar facing directly on to Glasgow Green at the McLennan Arch, because location absolutely matters and this place has nailed it. With a solid 4.4 rating, this is the kind of local bar that's got everything sorted properly. They're offering premium spirits, craft beers, and a seasonal cocktail menu (because sometimes a pint isn't enough and you need actual quality). They serve a wide variety of freshly prepared seasonal dishes including sustainably sourced seafood and shellfish, locally sourced meats, cheese plates, and comfort bar bites that actually hit the spot – not pretentious, just good food done well. The opening times are flexible and sensible: bar open Monday 5pm-midnight, Tuesday-Thursday noon-midnight, Friday-Sunday 9am-midnight. Kitchen serving Monday 5pm-9pm, Tuesday-Thursday noon-9pm, Friday-Sunday 9am-9pm. They've got a Thursday night quiz with quiz master Marky Mark from 7:30pm-10pm with prizes, pints, and patter (because Thursday needs excitement too). And they're running an annual "On the Green Festival" – their micro festival taking things outdoors to their huge front garden on Glasgow Green. Located at 5 Greendyke Street (G1 5PU), they're taking bookings 7 days a week and they've got venue hire available. This is a proper local bar that gets it – good food, good drinks, good location, and a quiz night. Because sometimes you need a local that does all the things properly.
Reviews
This is easily one of my favourite pubs in Glasgow. The interiors are lovely, with lots of original features, quirky art, and a generally cosy feel. I’ve come here many times for drinks and the service is always so warm and friendly. The seating out the front, facing Glasgow green, is also a great sun trap (if you can snag a seat!). The food menu here is quite unique too (think fried pickles) and has a good range of options for veggies. We had the fried pickles to start which were tasty, but you’ve got to be a real pickle fan to enjoy these! For main I had a smashed veggie burger which was delicious - a nice change from the usual veggie burgers that restaurants can trot out. The macaroni was also great, and the fries here are amazing. For dessert we shared a couple of sticky toffee puddings which were divine. Looking forward to returning here many times!
Read on Google MapsGreat place for a pint and some food. We called on a Wednesday evening and we're treated to some brilliant live music as well as really great food and very friendly service. Can't recommend highly enough

Read on Google MapsFirst time trying this place. Went for the fish and chips and it was delicious. Service was fantastic, the blonde girl hosting/working the bar was great 👌. Definitely be back
Read on Google MapsPopped in for some lunch and pints of Guinness & the beef and nduja lasagne is out of this world. Get down early to get it before they sell out. Class pints also 👏
