Next week is National Vegetarian Week, which coincides nicely with the opening of Heavenly, a new bar, cafe and music venue on Glasgow’s Hope Street.
The premises used to house The Candy Bar and may have had a few more tenants since then but they’ve escaped the blog’s memory.
While the owners aren’t shouting about it from the rooftops, the food will be vegan. Apparently, there are lots of hip young chefs working on America’s north eastern coast who are doing hip young stuff with vegan food.
Heavenly’s kitchens will be heading in the same direction.
The venue has close connections with the Bubblegum record label and independent, accessible pop will be the main course of the music menu at Heavenly.
It’s yonks away but the Glasgow Popfest is taking place in December and Heavenly will be one of the main hangouts.
