Date night at Bar Gumbo

As a West End resident I absolutely love checking out new restaurants and bars on my doorstep.
Bar Gumbo is situated on Byres Road. I have to admit that it was somewhere we always walked past and said "we need to try there" so I was really delighted to be invited down to finally try it out.
The minute we walked in, we received the warmest of welcomes from all the staff. First impressions of the newly re-furbished bar and restaurant were sublime. It was very cosy, retro and very New Orleans vibes.

It is safe to say that we were absolutely stuffed, so stuffed in fact that we didn't even buy any snacks for the cinema. It was absolutely sublime like truly! The food was outstanding, the staff were just so lovely and really looked after us. A massive thank you to Flat White Communications and Bar Gumbo for your amazing hospitality. I have been ranting and raving about this place and already have plans to go back with a couple of friends. Rx
