About the restaurant

Reservations are for food bookings only – all drinks are first come, first served.

Not trying too hard, not overly complicated, and EXACTLY what you are looking for; our menu is the fox's knees. We have got a great selection of Scottish beers on tap, and have recently created an extensive cocktail menu for you to sip on while you catch up with friends. From the kitchen, you can expect feel good pub dishes with a twist made from fresh, seasonal ingredients – we think yer granny would even approve!

Foxes might not be great at sports (it’s hard when you can’t even wear shoes) but that doesn’t stop us from watching all the big games! We have all Sky Sports & BT channels so can show everything from the Scottish Premiership & International Football to the Grand National and Wimbledon. Swing by, pull up a pew and catch all of the action.

We arrived early and by luck our table was available. Very attentive service throughout. We had the Christmas menu. Food was excellent & beautifully presented. Wine with meal was reasonably priced. We finished with a cocktail which was also good value. First time I’d been to the Spiritualist in a while but as good as I remembered and I will definitely return soon.

About the restaurant

Pull up a seat and step back in time. Our Champagne bar overlooks Central Station and evokes the golden age of travel, with a sash of style and lashings of charm.

For those feeling peckish, food is fine, flavoursome, and focuses on small plates and sharing boards. Afternoon tea has a special place on the menu and is – of course – best taken with a glass of Champagne. Breakfast is also served in Champagne Central, for residents and non-residents alike.

Awarded the Best Hotel Bar in Glasgow at the 2019 Best Bar None awards.

On a busy evening the week before Christmas, we were accommodated at a large table, and adding to the numbers on the night wasn't a problem to the staff present. We were grateful to have a table in the room adjacent to the bar, where we could still feel the lively bar atmosphere but it was peaceful enough to hear our conversations. The food and drinks were served promptly and were of high quality. We appreciated the selection of small plates, which created a more relaxed vibe instead of a formal meal. Overall it was a lovely experience and I would recommend to anyone looking for a quality venue in the heart of the city, and we hope to return again soon.

Went to cafe Ibiza for the first time last weekend and wow!! Why have I not come here sooner! Absolutely worth the short journey from town!! We had booked a table for 6pm and were meant to leave at 8pm but we ended up staying until they closed! It was the best vibe, staff were so accommodating and nothing was too much trouble, the venue is stunning and the food was such good value for money! We’ve already booked our next visit in December and cannot wait to come back!
