Another bar more synonymous with Glasgow you will surely struggle to name. Steadfastly doing its thing at the Charing Cross end of Sauchiehall Street since 1991, in recent years the famous Nice’n’Sleazy has transcended its status as an indie dive-bar and musicians’ haunt to become many things to all kinds of people. Meathammer Ltd are in charge of the kitchen, doing a range of inventive and blockbusting burgers – including the award-winning Lucretia (with pulled pork, chorizo, burnt pineapple, chilli jam and hot buffalo sauce), one of several worthy successors to the much-missed Sleazy Burger (RIP).
From top-notch restaurants doing them well to venues where the patty and bun are their bread and butter, burgers are big things in Glasgow. With the fast-food chains being shown up by joints putting more than a little bit of TLC into their carefully crafted creations, the humble burger is enjoying pride of place at the forefront of the buzzing US-influenced food scene. And it's probably wise not to listen to those naysayers predicting the end of a trend - when they taste this good, burgers aren't going anywhere.
