What is it?
Downstairs from Native Glasgow, Atlantic Bar and Brasserie is a vibrant homage to modern French dining, bringing the charm of Parisian bistros and the energy of brasseries to the heart of the city. Stylish and inviting, it’s where classic Gallic dishes meet Glasgow’s appetite for bold flavour and good times.
Where is it?
Tucked beneath St Vincent Place, just steps from George Square, Atlantic is perfectly placed for lunch, pre-theatre dinner or a leisurely weekend brunch. Better still, it’s located just below Native Glasgow, so you don’t even have to step outside.
What you’ll find
The menu is full of French staples, elevated with seasonal ingredients and thoughtful execution. Start with escargots or French onion soup, before diving into the rotisserie chicken, a house signature renowned for its crisp skin and juicy, herb-infused meat. Moules frites, seafood platters and vibrant vegetarian options round out the offering.
From Monday to Friday, stop by for Cumbrae oysters at just £2.50 each between 4–6pm, a midweek ritual for seafood lovers. Or arrive at the weekend, when live jazz from 2–5pm adds a warm, melodic backdrop to your afternoon cocktails.
Speaking of cocktails: don’t leave without trying the 1738 Sidecar, a standout mix of Rémy Martin 1738, coconut Cointreau, lemon, and sugar. Like Atlantic itself, it’s a perfect balance of sophistication and flair.
One-liner
Contemporary French cooking, live jazz and cocktails, all served beneath the streets of central Glasgow.
Native’s tip
Arrive during oyster hour for the best seats at the raw bar, and stay for the live music. It’s a recipe for the perfect evening in the city.
