Buy from £79.50 |
It's a bar, it's a restaurant, it's a club, it's a venue, it's a... church. Óran Mór is a stunning old-church-turned-super-venue, perched on the corner of Byres Road in the heart of Glasgow's West End. With two bars, two restaurants, a venue, a nightclub, a beautiful auditorium and seven nights of late opening, Óran Mór is a one-stop destination for all things Glasgow nightlife.
After a careful restoration, the true-to-the-venue decor calls for old stone walls, dark wooden fixtures, and roaring fires. Hints of the building's more pious past as Kelvinside Parish Church stay on, with iron columns, church bells, stained glass and mounted head carvings of prominent church figures.
The selection of spaces brings a contrasting crowd, The Brasserie Bar attracts cocktail drinkers with its late bar, while The Whisky Bar - and its stock of 250 malts - lures those looking for something a little stiffer. Club O draws a party crowd Thursday to Sunday, as guest and resident DJs lay on the floor fillers. Meanwhile throughout the week, live music and lunchtime theatre fill out the already chocker programme.
Should you fancy something to eat, Óran Mór has every base covered with three spaces to choose from. Most people will opt to eat in The Brasserie Restaurant which specialises in Scottish-sourced dishes.

The Auditorium is a breathtaking architectural setting for a range of events, from workshops for 80 people to a formal banquet of 276. Beneath the celestial ceiling mural by Alasdair Gray, one of Scotland’s largest pieces of public art, guests can enjoy the fine Scottish food and impeccable service that has put us on the map as one of Glasgow’s leading venues. It is an atmospheric room enhanced by the pagan stained glass windows, and, as well as retaining many of the original features of the church, offers a contemporary setting in which to hold events. The facilities include a private entrance, a dedicated kitchen, disabled access, natural daylight and an original architectural setting. |
