A younger sibling of the two Café Andaluz outlets in Glasgow, this bustling city-centre tapas bar instantly evokes images of Spain with its terracotta tiles and Andalusian artwork, while the
authenticity of the food will have you dreaming of Barcelona. Good-value special deals should see you through, especially as portions are fairly hefty and the results are
remarkably consistent: try chorizo and black pudding in spicy tomato sauce, chicken croquetas or grilled goats’ cheese with Seville orange and chilli marmalade. Otherwise, share the spoils from one
of their excellent paellas (the Valenciana is particularly popular with locals). Café Andaluz is a good base for a warm-up before hitting George Street’s pubs and clubs, but book if you want to
secure a spot during the absurdly busy weekend sessions.
