law. Which basically means it's bloody good. Excellent German dishes accompany the
amber fluid, such as bratwurst sausages, sauerkraut and schnitzels. Migrate to the beer
garden overlooking the People's Palace in summer. To get there, head to the People's
Palace and you'll see it opposite, next to the bizarrely ornate facade of the former carpet
factory.

42 Jamaica St)
There's nothing better than a good horseshoe-
shaped bar in Glasgow, and here the elegantly moulded windows and ceiling add a touch
of class to this happy place, which offers live music every night and some excellent, in-
ventive pub food. DJs from the nearby Sub Club also play sets here.
BAR
Nice 'n' Sleazy

;
421 Sauchiehall St)
On the rowdy Sauchiehall strip, students from
the nearby School of Art make the buzz here reliably friendly. If you're over 35 you'll feel
like a professor not a punter, but retro decor, a big selection of tap and bottled beers, 3am
closing, and nightly alternative live music downstairs followed by a club at weekends
make this a winner. There's also popular, cheap Tex-Mex food (dishes £5 to £7).

Tiki Bar & Kitsch Inn

;
214 Bath St)
Hawaiian shirts, palms and leis provide an appro-
priate backdrop to colourful cocktails in this hedonistic and amiable basement bar. Up-
stairs, kitsch plays the relative straight man, though MAD magazine covers mean it's not
all poker-faces. Order top-shelf spirits to watch the bar staff negotiate the ladder.
Pivo Pivo
(15 Waterloo St)
Cavernous downstairs beer hall with beers aplenty - 100 varieties from
32 different countries, to be exact. Add to that an impressive array of vodka and schnapps,
and it may be a while before you see daylight.
