The Crystal Palace

I visited The Crystal Palace, Wetherspoons in Glasgow a few times, especially with my partner, and it's a very charming pub where you can get both food and drinks. 😊 We enjoyed visiting on a weekday, and our experience was delightful from start to finish. This pub, nestled in the heart of Glasgow, holds a rich history that adds a unique dimension to its allure. Designed by John Baird, it stands as a testament to Glasgow's architectural heritage, inspired by Joseph Paxton's monumental Crystal Palace, a marvel of the 1851 Great Exhibition. The iron and glass construction, reminiscent of Paxton's masterpiece, takes you on a journey through time as you savour your meal. 🏰✨ We decided to start our day with breakfast, and it was delicious. The fact that The Crystal Palace is a Wetherspoons establishment was a reassuring sign of excellent food at a great value, a hallmark of this renowned chain. 🍳☕ One of the standout features that both my partner and I adored was the presence of the original lift system, a piece of history that adds a unique charm to the place. Not every day you get to enjoy your meal while surrounded by such historical elements. 🚇🏛️ While there weren't a lot of staff on hand during our visits, the convenience of being able to order through their app more than made up for it. The modern technology seamlessly integrated with the pub's historical ambience, creating a one-of-a-kind dining experience. 📱🍽️ Would recommend people to visit!

We had ordered via the app and we got our drinks firstly within 2 mins which we thought was very impressive! Food also came out very sharp and was cooked perfectly and with very little grease, we had both ordered the fish and chips..the chips were large and were crispy and the fish was also large and was good quality fish and also had a decent amount of mushy peas, couldn't fault the food at all! When I had ordered the food, I had made a mistake regarding drink order on the app, but when I brought it to the attention of our waitress, she quickly resolved the issue without any problem at all, great customer service, great food and great atmosphere, will be back!
