Barclays work event - did not disappoint! - We were on the red bus bistro tonight as part of a work event and it was great! The team were so friendly and accommodating when told them of our vegetarian dietary requirements. The food exceeded our expectations and there was plenty of it too! (Pregnant lady over here who is constantly hungry!) the decor inside was really cute and I’m really glad I got the experience tonight. What a lovely Thu evening for us :)

Fab Evening Out - Brilliant night! brilliant hosts! fabulous crowd on the bus which helped. The pizza was home made and we had one each although I thought it would be one between 2. Good playlist for those of a certain age but it complemented the age group of the bus. No toilet on the bus but there was a comfort stop about 35 minutes into the tour. The bar on the bus was reasonably priced in my opinion. It’s not a tour of Glasgow as such and the website does tell you that - if that’s what you are looking for book the hop on hop off city sightseeing tour from George Square but they do give you snippets of information. For me one of the best bits was the people of Glasgow waving to you and smiling as you passed by. A good evening out for me and 3 friends.

Glasgow Evening Dining Experience March 2022 - Fantastic welcome on board. Service was outstanding.Pizza fab and an extensive Bar to choose from. Nothing was too much trouble! Music choices were great as everyone knew every song, which added to an already great atmosphere. This is something I would most definitely do again.

A must-do ! - A fun night out with a difference! A cozy atmosphere and good banter among staff and guests. It was a surprisingly smooth ride - kudos to the driver for his sleek driving skills and to the staff who were constantly checking on the passengers and ensuring it was an enjoyable experience. A great thing to do as a couple or with friends who are nexw to the city or a great gift to offer to someone. We loved it!

Lovely experience - It was lovely to be welcomed by the staff when before you step aboard they tell you want table to go to and very quickly they serve your meals. The food selection isn't great to be honest. There was only 3 options of antipasti and pizza (plain cheese or pepperoni). Now my sister got the pizza which the website claim is stone baked.my sis and I both convinced that these are store bought frozen. They weren't great to be honest. The antipasti I ordered was amazing they displayed that beautifully and to be honest it was very filling. I would reccomend that over the pizza. The windows were a bit dirty upstairs so we couldn't see out when the bus was driving around the city. But we did enjoy that part. We felt kind of special being driven around listening to lovely music enjoying food and drinks. The good thing was you could order more drinks on the bus and pay at the end. The atmosphere of the bus was great and cosy and the staff were pleasant. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to try it. I did enjoy it overall.

Was a very wet night so atmosphere wasn't great - Ok. I only give it three stars and not the fault of the bus. I had a voucher for afternoon tea but saw there was some seats for the evening tour. We picked the worst night as it was windy and raining. We had pre ordered our meal but to be honest I didn't think it worked that well. A bowl of pasta and some pizza slices. I'm vegetarian so didn't want the deli platter. There was only 8 of us on the bus and felt the loud music was a bit intrusive as would have been nice to chat to our fellow travellers. Can understand when there is a full bus everyone would have been in high spirits. I have friends who have done the afternoon tea route and looking at their pictures the food looked much more plentiful than the evening tour. My only criticism is that with few passengers and a dreich night it could be tailored a bit better. The poor girl serving us did her best but just couldn't get the enthusiasm with 8 passengers.
