We're looking back at some of Glasgow's loved and lost pubs ahead of Hogmanay 🍻
Glasgow isn't short of pubs, though some of the best boozers the city has seen have disappeared from our streets over the years.
Cheap as chips, pretty tacky, and the perfect way to see in the New Year. While Sparkles itself is long gone, the building still stands and is open as the Priory Bar today. The Old Eagle Inn In the railway arches of the old St Enoch Station, this pub became a true Glasgow institution. Decorated with the front half of a 1936 Chrysler car, there were also superhero characters adorning most of the walls. Only the coolest of Glaswegians would have spent their Hogmanay here.
Many locals could still be suffering from tinnitus from being in the walls of the Burns Howff, but it was worth it. Centre Court One of Glasgow’s more bizarre watering holes, Centre Court was Wimbledon themed and featured a green carpet with bar staff dressed in tennis gear - yes really.
