; 200 Bath St)
A stylish Bath St basement bar, Moskito is just
the place to kick back in the booth seating, play pool and let the in-house DJs mellow you
out with their deep beats and electronica.
Waxy O'Connors

46 West George St)
This lager labyrinth with its fantasy-realm
elven treehouse feel could be an Escher sketch brought to life, and it's a cut above most
Irish theme pubs.
PUB
West End
Hillhead Bookclub
(

;
17 Vinicombe St)
Atmosphere in spades is the call sign of
this easygoing West End bar. An ornate wooden ceiling overlooks two levels of well-
mixed cocktails, seriously cheap drinks, comfort food and numerous intriguing decorative
touches. There's even a pingpong table in a cage.
BAR
Òran Mór
(

;
731 Great Western Rd)
Now some may be a little uncomfortable
with the thought of drinking in a church. But we say: the Lord giveth. Praise be and let's
give thanks - a converted church, and an almighty one at that, is now a bar, restaurant and
club venue. The bar feels like it's been here for years - all wood and thick, exposed stone
giving it warmth and a celestial air. There's an excellent array of whiskies. The only thing
missing is holy water on your way in.
BAR
Brel
(

;
39 Ashton Lane)
Perhaps the best on Ashton Lane, this bar
can seem tightly packed, but there's a conservatory out the back so you can pretend you're
sitting outside when it's raining, and when the sun does peek through there's a beer
garden. They've got a huge range of Belgian beers, and they also do mussels and other
Lowlands favourites.
