1051 Great Western Road, Glasgow. G 12 0XP. Tel: 0141 339 5575.

Carriages. 1991.

Now called Bar Stazione.

French for Station. This former railway station was designed by architect J J Burnet, he purposely built the station to look like a west end villa so that it didn’t stand out like a sore thumb, as all the wealthy people lived out in this part of the west end.

Update…2019.

These premises are now called 1051 GWR.

Do you remember this well-known Westend eatery? If so please leave a comment.
