In the same area. What was the name of the pub in the old Shawlands precinct? At the top left next to the hotel entrance! I saw a guy do a floating pound note trick in there and it's been bugging me how he did it ever since. Now that I think about that "Google is my friend"
There's also the Tinto Firs and the McDonald. Hotels granted but still my haunts from younger times. Trade Winds on Nitshill Road, Thornlie Arms and Lea Bank in Thornliebank Main St.
Jeez, reading this thread it's a wonder you can get a pint anywhere these days!

It, and its ghosts, are now somewhere beneath the St Enoch Centre. Unusually for its time, it sold a lovely German draught lager called Holsten, far superior to the glassfuls of chemicals from out of Duke Street.

I used to meet my then girlfriend there after she finished her Saturday job, this would be around 1969 / 70. Can't remember too much about it except to say how small it was inside? Am I right?
ps. I went into "Morrisons" for a beer last month for the first time in decades, its a step back in time.

Hi JimT, welcome to HG
I just remembered another one in that area called The Mally Arms which was on the corner of Bedford St and Eglinton St Was demolished in the mid 90's.

With the adjoining Top 20 lounge.
