Somewhere by Nico

You'll find yourself on the first floor of a converted Edwardian townhouse in the heart of Byres Road, surrounded by the kind of crowd that actually knows what they're ordering. Nico's place feels like it exists in its own pocket of Glasgow — intimate without being cramped, buzzy without the noise that kills conversation. The cocktails are the real deal: thought-through, technically sound, made by bartenders who've clearly spent time actually learning their craft rather than just following Instagram trends.
