Step behind a curious version of the Iron Curtain where burgers and Tex-Mex diner food mix with an eclectic musical mash of DJs and live rock and folk bands.

In charge of the kitchen at Bloc is ‘the Mad Chef’, who got his name when his Buckfast ice cream and Irn Bru pulled pork creations went viral online. Bloc has plenty of cool, edgy attitude but it’s still a crowd-pleaser. There’s something for everyone on this menu – impressive burgers and incredible vegan pub grub, including the not dog (veggie dog with lentils, sweet potato, butternut squash, tahini, avocado cheese sauce and Quorn chilli), which would bowl over even the most ardent meat-lover.

Bloc has long been a go-to spot, especially for those on a budget (a £3 burger features on their week-long list of daily deals) - but the real draw are those burgers. The Mad Mac, a take on a certain other takeaway fave, will have you dreaming of burgers for days to come. The Durty Burger (topped with gravy) will leave you feeling like a kid covered in your favourite foods and the Sloppy Jock, with haggis and peppercorn sauce, is a winner any day of the week.

Bet you thought you wouldn't see a burger joint in amongst all those fine dining options - wrong. Glasgow continues to excel at so-called 'dirty food' - or street food in a bar setting with ever more weird and wonderful variations. From Irn Bru pulled pork to Buckfast ice cream, Bloc's menu has become something of an institution among Glasgow's more adventurous eaters - you're always guaranteed an interesting, if no-frills, meal here.

Their success story is mainly down to the Mad Chef Danny McLaren and his team and their irreverent takes on typical bar menu staples.

If you’re craving an experience that’s a little more on the edge, with a dash of underground vibe, then Bloc+ is your go-to spot.
