Glasgow is renowned for its vibrant dining scenes and there are always exciting new restaurants arriving to raise the bar even higher. Here’s the ones we’ve recently welcomed to 5pm.

The Hyndland Fox

Situated on Clarence Drive in leafy Hyndland, The Hyndland Fox is a relaxed neighbour hangout that suits everything from an evening dinner of lobster and fizz to a morning sipping a hand roasted Chemex coffee. The restaurant hosts regular theme menus from the Sunday roast to Tuesday night fish pie.

£11 for 2 courses on locals menu at The Hyndland Fox in 5pm Dining.

Montgomery’s Cafe

q52lG9Kv9bpBrunch stacks during the day, candles on the table in the evenings, Montgomery’s is a bright and cheery addition to the Kelvingrove area. The evening menu is short but thoughtful, including dishes such as Stornoway black pudding and smoked bacon salad with French beans and red onion, topped with poached egg and Hollandaise sauce, and hot smoked salmon and pea risotto with parmesan tuille, peashoots and a fresh dill dressing.

£15.95 for 3 courses on evening menu + glass of wine at Montgomery’s Cafe on 5pm Dining.

Le Chalet Beaumartin

dVLQoIvJDFY Le Chalet Beaumartin on Great Western Road is the sister restaurant to Le Bistro Beaumartin in the city centre. Just as the décor suggests an alpine ski lodge, the menu also looks to the mountains for inspiration. Alongside soups and desserts, Le Chalet Beaumartin specialises in hearty raclettes and fondues made with a mix of matured Beaufort, Comté and Emmental cheese.

£13.50 per person for a cheese fondue to share or £11.50 per person for a raclette to share at Le Chalet Beaumartin on 5pm Dining.

The Fish People Cafe

Since its launch in 2012, The Fish People Cafe in Glasgow’s Scotland Street has established a stellar reputation, winning the best seafood restaurant award at the Scottish Restaurant Awards and Best Newcomer at The List Eating and Drinking Guide Awards. Expanding from the fishmonger next door, The Fish People Café has access to Scotland’s finest seafood and the kitchen likes to treat it with an admirable simplicity. Popular starters include the Cumbrae rock oysters on the half shell; the Greenland prawn cocktail with fennel shavings and Loch Fyne smoked salmon served with pickled cucumber and a dill mustard dressing. See what they did with salmon on a recent 5pm blog post.

£13 for 2 courses on lunch & early evening menu + glass of wine at The Fish People Cafe on 5pm Dining.
