The Star Bar

The Star Bar. 1991.

The Star Bar has been a landmark in the south side of Glasgow for many years. To read the full history of the Star Bar, check back soon for our second book.

Passing of a Loyal Barstar

One of our lovely members Val has sent us a picture of her uncle Stewart Boyle who died this month (December 2020) in Burnside, at the age of 92! Stewart was a Stalwart of the Star Bar in the 1950s and early 60s and he and his pals were known as the ‘Barstars’. Retired  Assessor from Strathclyde Council and proud  ‘Weegie’ always, we hope you are enjoying a drunk in the pub in the sky. RIP.
