Waxy O'Connors (Glasgow) Pub / Bar National

Newest Review: ... for the day. The plan was to have a couple of drinks and then go somewhere else for lunch - however the ambience and service provided in Waxy's made us decide to stay put and have lunch there - the food was FANTASTIC...and tonnes of it - none of your namby-pamby 'tea-plate' portions here! We moved on to several other 'establishments' during the course of the day but either the music was either too loud that we couldn't hold a conversation without employing the use of lip-reading skills or there was no atmosphere at all! So - when it came round to FOOD TIME again we decided to go back to Waxy's!! In fact we... more

I was meeting up with some friends I hadn't seen for many years and was looking for somewhere to take them that provided drink, food and pleasant surroundings. Our meeting point was Queen Street Station so I suggested that Waxy's be our first port of call for the day.

Don't go to the toilet!!! (139 words)

This pub is like a labyrinth inside. There are various different levels and a number of bar/restaurant areas. After a few pints it is very possible to get utterly lost on the way back from the toilet. Its definitely worth taking a ball of string with you and leaving a trail behind you. Otherwise you may never see your pint again! Plenty of secluded areas for getting close to your lady and plenty of atmosphere in this Church-like pub. Beer is good but the service can be a little slow at busy times - which seems to be always! Could do without the cheesy Irish poetry and voices over the tannoy. Haven't tried the food but it certainly looks good. Definitely ...  Read the complete review

Perfectly situated next to Queen Street station in Glasgow this hostelry performs several functions. Firstly as a quick stop for a pint on your way home from a hard days drudgery in a city centre office. Secondly as a meeting point at a start of a big night out Thirdly if you are not inclined to move from pub to pub you could make do with sitting in various parts of this pub – it’s big enough. I enjoyed a Friday night out here recently and I didn’t feel that I was entering the “how many people can you fit in a phone box competition” which you can do in some other Glasgow pubs. The food is also ...  Read the complete review

After one particularly heavy session someone once described this bar to me as “like the inside of a tree”. Having never drunk inside a tree I can’t comment on the accuracy of that simile however if drinking inside a tree involves getting lost because of the size of it then I am in full agreement. This place is huge. Found at 46 West George Street ( just next to Queen Street Station ) it doesn’t look all that large from the outside but once you go through the doors it’s like stepping into a different world. Waxy’s is a labyrinth of bars and hidden seating areas on about four different levels. At last count I would hazard a ...  Read the complete review
