I paid The Horseshoe a long overdue visit when I went back to Glencoe the other weekend - my first visit since returning from Arran in May 2006!

"If it isn't broken - don't fix it!" Well, it wasnae broken so they didnae fix it!

I popped in with three friends early Friday lunchtime having driven the best part of 500 miles from the South East, and the pint of Deuchars' I.P.A. was quaffed with gusto. An excellent pint and the service was as brisk and prompt as before.

The three course lunch is no longer available for £3.45 as it was five and a half years ago. It has now gone up to £4.25, with a larger choice of main course, and I don't just mean that you get a choice of either baked beans or mushy peas with your Scotch Pie! In addition, other food options are the "Two Meals for 5.50" deal, Burger & Drink for £4.49, Wednesday Grill - £5.99, Thursday Curry - £4.99 and Sunday Roast - £4.99.

I've just read the above paragraph back and it look more like an advert for 'Spoons than for The Horseshoe. But 'Spoons it definitely ain't!! The previous score stands.

Our first ever visit to Glasgow bore quite a few good pubs, and this certainly did not let things down.
An historic pub with a fantastic island bar, which can be walked around if you want to admire its full length.
The pubs Interesting old decor was only let down very slightly by an unexciting selection of beer on the bar, however, this was not enough to spoil the experience of a classic pub in the city centre.
If you are visiting this city, and you like old, authentic pubs, then make sure that this is one of those you visit.

Very traditional pub with a variety of cask ales at reasonable prices. Handy for Central Station and well worth a visit.

Quite simply, a classic. Good value and oozes character. Highly recommended

First visit since Glasgow was the City of European Culture, and the place has changed little apart from a more commercialised food service (but the simple lunchtime meals at £2.99 were selling like hot cakes and looked good). A pint of Deuchar's at £1.89 was a bargain. Good atmosphere in an excellent city pub full of local people. I'm suprised that it's not in the GBG (I visited due to fond memory). I will certainly call again whenever in Glasgow.
