People, plase don’t be fooled by the social media marketing. This place is overpriced with the most disgusting sticky tables ever ...which everything stuck to them all night (not only the napkins, but a glass could hardly come off the table).Тhe food was so tasteless.Regarding their famous fondue, the pan with chocolate was served not on a burner but simply on a mini candle, which for 10 minutes can not heat the bottom of the pan. Very bad, very bad performance.I will never repeat my visit at Brel!

I've been greeted at the door immediately and was taken to our table. Staff is very friendly, they checked upon us regularly during our meal.The portions are huge - we shared a starter between the two of us but it could have just as well been shared by 4 people.A bit on the pricey side but we had a reasonable bill because we shared (although had no dessert as we were full).We've been seated inside next to the heater - it had to be turned down because it was roasting there. It was dimly lit which was a bit dark for my taste but I think other areas were better.

Nice pub / diner. Relaxed atmosphere and ambiance. Pleasant staff and I enjoyed my meal of Muscles in a lemongrass and mild chilly broth. Prices reasonable. Good near by parking. 1 minute from Hillhead Subway so easily accessible from other parts of the city. Also has covered and no. Covered outdoor area and beer garden.

Enjoyed it, we were outside in the beer garden which was nice. Don't think we had a patio heater near our seats so did get cold, although it is January 🤷🏼♂️😀. Staff were always about and pretty attentive. Burger was 👌.

Fully agree with one of the reviews below: don’t be fooled by the social media marketing. This place is overpriced and greedy with large non-refundable upfront charges. If any of your party can't make it, they will not credit the paid amount to drinks or otherwise. Make sure to check your bill carefully as they can be sneaky there too. Food was OK. Serving staff were friendly.

Great food, great service and beautiful surroundings.

Nice bar with fairy lights. The best thing about this place is the beer garden, so it's a good place for drinks in the summer. Wide range of beers, especially Belgian ones, a bit pricey but it is the West End. The food has been a mixed bag for us, the best options are the mac and cheese and the moules frites (mussels and fries). The fries are crispy and tasty. Their s'mores are also very good.

The staff couldn’t be nicer. The setting is really fun. You can be inside, outside at the beer garden, outside at a picnic table or book a fire pit ahead. You do have to spend a minimum to get the fire pit. The food outside comes in little boxes and a basket picnic style.For me, I wish they did give the option to have outdoor food served like it is inside JUST because food I’m containers gets soggy. They kindly offer gluten free options and the staff is caring of this and helpful.Also, they could make a gluten free s’more kit by getting Nairn chocolate chip biscuits and another chocolate that is not Lindt (has malt) if they wanted to but I imagine it is tough to do everything these days with COVID, food allergies and just the chaos of life these days. We had a lot of fun. Again, lovely staff. If you do come gluten free, bring your own Nairn biscuits and chocolate to add yo the gluten free marshmallow kit they bring out. Really good rose lemonade. Fun night out on cute Ashton street.

Amazing location, Westend in Glasgow and very good food, beer and people.

I love sitting outside and enjoying a drink. Their mac&cheese is more like cheese&mac (no complaints there!) and the rest of the food looks lovely. The desserts were awesome as well!
