Nice N Sleazy (Bar/Nightclub)



Another great bar in the hustle and bustle of Glasgow is Nice N Sleazy. Located on the busy street of Sauchiehall Street this is the perfect location for a drink with friends. This bar also is a great place to catch some new music! It has resident DJs ripping up the dance floor some nights and other nights there is all sorts of different bands playing so there is something to suit everyone!



The things I myself quite like about this bar is that it offers a unique music vibe. Every wall is covered in vintage posters and has amazing card suit lights. Very different from your usual bar. It also has the epic jukebox with songs ranging from indie to ultimate rock and roll classics. If your a lover of your music then this is a definite hotspot for you!

You can also have your chance to book a gig or a party in Nice N Sleazy as they have a private room downstairs with a fully equipped PA system. If your booking a gig here, Nice N Sleazy don't only provide the space for your gig but they also provide posters and listings sent out to press and through there own mailing list so your guaranteed to create a bit buzz about you or your band!

Waxy O’Connor’s (Glasgow Bar/ Restaurant)


The Glasgow Experience - Waxy O'Connors - Irish Bar Glasgow

It wasn’t until recently when I went to waxy O’Connor’s on George Street that I realised how amazing it truly is.

It has got 3 floors and 6 bars so you can imagine you would get lost but the great thing is that there will always be a place for you to sit. It is styled to be ‘traditionally Irish’ with their décor and overall atmosphere.

When we were looking for our table that we had reserved we saw that there was some live music and also there were rooms that had been hired out for private functions.

When we got our table, the service was great, and even though it was busy we were seated away from the noise so it meant that we could hear each other talk and have a great conversation. We also were able to use our ‘taste card’ which entitled us money off our already cheap food bill. They serve food until 8.45 every day and also include breakfast on a Saturday and Sunday. So you can even get some good quality food if you are looking for a late dinner.

People were mostly people there for a drink after work and it was a very chilled out, relaxing atmosphere. Nobody was too under/overdressed. Waxy’s also have multiple big screens throughout the bars and so they show all major sporting events.  It is also a great place to go if you’re going for a quick pint before you are catching the train home as it is right next to Glasgow Queen Street station.

Bar Budda (Glasgow Bar)

The Glasgow Experience - Bar Budda - Bar Glasgow

Bar Budda, Sauchiehall Street, Glasgow. Just recently visited this bar after hearing good things, have to say it lived up to the hype! Loved the layout with great booth space where there was plenty of space for a group of us. We used the bar as a pre-drink night before Jellybaby on Thursday (as Bar Budda give out free passes to Jbaby, hint hint!), we could easily have stayed there and made a whole night of it. While not being overly busy this night, we sat in our booth with a mixture of shots, Jaeger bombs and some bar budda cocktails and had a genuinely great time. The music was on point, with hit after hit and generally created a great vibe for the place.

I loved the privacy you get form the booths with the walls, it makes a night out with your friends really special. The staff were chatty and upbeat even when 2 of the guys got a load of cocktails in! The music was loud but not overpowering so we could chat, which was a great bonus. The lighting was dim and gave the bar a great look with candle lights and great big Buddha statues shining away.

From word of mouth, they do great deals for hen and stag parties and other such groups. The food we hear is great value and pretty damn tasty too. So, thumbs up for Bar Budda in Glasgow!
