Whatever your choice of tipple, chances are Glasgow's thriving bar and pub scene has got you covered. From your favourite local to a more high-end drinking hole, Glasgow has truly outdone themselves this year, with a fleet of new kids on the block, as well as some innovative twists from familiar faces. Here's our top picks:

The Bell Jar
Second pub from the good folk at the excellent Sparkle Horse in Partick, serving up small plates of upscale bar food on the Southside.

Drygate Brewing Co.
An industrial-sized cornucopia of craft beer in the East End of town, proving daily that seeing truly is believing with its own viewable working brewery.

Inn Deep
Dog-friendly riverside bar with a great beer selection, and now with supper clubbers That's Yer Dinner being inventive in the kitchen.

Phillies of Shawlands
The team behind Redmond's conquer the Southside, with a food menu full of delights, cocktails and craft beers, with plenty of entertainments and an attached bottle shop.

Redmond's of Dennistoun
A real asset, and perhaps testament, to the burgeoning area that Dennistoun is becoming in terms of where the line between community and bar are blurred.

The Rum Shack
Not just a little bit of the Caribbean in the Southside, the Rum Shack is either a great reason to go to the Southside or your favourite neighbourhood bar.
