Big birthday congratulations to 29, the private members’ club on Glasgow’s Royal Exchange Square.

The venue is celebrating its tenth birthday and is looking as elegant as it did on the day it opened.

It has long been a magnet for celebs. Noel Gallagher was a recent visitor and the venue hosted the MOBO’s after party last week.

More importantly for the 5pm Dining blog, it has, over the years, developed a shining reputation as a great place to eat and drink.

Here are five reasons why you should visit.

Hugely popular

The Grill Room at 29 is one of the most popular restaurants on 5pm Dining. At the time of writing, some 3400 5pm reviews have given The Grill Room a fantastic rating of 4.4/5.

Polished service and a great atmosphere are two of the qualities which crop up time and time again in reviews.

You can check their daily offers and book in via their 5pm Dining page. In particular, the 29% discount on the a la carte menu catches the eye.

Tremendous steaks

Steak is by no means the only dish on the menu at The Grill Room but it certainly takes pride of place on the menu.

From New York-style strip sirloin steaks to Chateaubriand sharing cuts, the kitchen has a mouth-watering range of beef grilled just the way you like it.

If you haven’t been before this Big Deal on steak frites for two with a bottle of wine to share is a great introduction.

It’s not all about steak

As well as The Grill Room and the Lanson Rooftop Terrace, 29 also has the stylish Oyster Bar.

It’s a stylish spot for a chat.

Perhaps over an artisan cheeseboard and a bottle of red.

Happily, we have this Big Deal at £15 for a cheeseboard and bottle of wine to share.

It’s valid from early January to the end of March 2017. Perfect for cheering up a chilly February day but it could also be used as a fun stocking-filler.

Private dining

29 has a well deserved reputation as a place to see and be seen. It can also be a place where you can eat and drink in the privacy of one of their private dining rooms.

You might want to have a discreet business lunch. You might want to have a private work night out. Or you might simply want to make a family meal extra memorable.

This Big Deal means you can enjoy a private dining experience for up to eight people in The Grill Room at 29. Prices start at £199.

Afternoon tea

Private dining is just one of the elegant pleasures to be had at 29.

Afternoon tea lovers know that the venue lays on one of the most sumptuous afternoon teas in town.

From innovative sandwiches through fruit scones with Chantilly cream and jam to the spectacular cake selection, afternoon tea here is everything you might hope for.

And, as you might imagine, the suave service for which The Grill Room is renowned comes into its own on occasions like this.

This Big Deal is for afternoon tea for two at The Grill Room. It costs £19 and is available from early January to the end of March 2017.
