Gallivanting Glasgow

Looking for an alternative pub night, or possibly a trip down memory lane, then NQ64 has you covered! Located in the basement of Merchant Square in Glasgow City Centre, NQ64 is a retro themed arcade bar, splattered in neon paint, and features a variety of classic consoles from the 70s, 80s, and 90s, including Pac-Man, Tetris, Space Invaders, Dance Dance Revolution, Guitar Hero, Mario Kart and so much more! In addition to their everlasting game selection, NQ64 also boasts an extensive range of arcade themed cocktails, taking a spin on some of the classics, including ‘Pacs A Punch’, ‘Lake Springfield’ and ‘Mega Daisy’ – of course, based off ‘Pac-Man’, ‘The Simpsons’ and ‘Mario Kart’. Alternatively, there is also a wide selection of beers, wines and mocktails available. However, NQ64 don’t serve food - other than typical bar snacks e.g. crisps, peanuts etc -  so be sure to grab a bite to eat elsewhere before you visit. NQ64 operates a token system, whereby guests can purchase tokens t...

Jungle Rumble: Jungle Rumble, situated on Bath Street – just off Buchanan Street, is yet another mini golf classic! Players can choose to play one of two adventure golf courses – Surfer’s Paradise and Indian Ocean – and enjoy a night full of drinks in one of their two jungle themed bars. Although, in my opinion, Jungle Rumble isn’t quite as good as Golf Fang (Blog 1), Jungle Rumble do offer extensive packages – starting at a minimum of £5pp, and student discounts – making it a more affordable night out for students! Feeling thirsty? Don’t worry, Jungle Rumble offers a variety of classics drinks, including their renowned slushie’s and limited-edition Halloween themed cocktails, accompanied by a limited selection of snacks including nachos, mozzarella sticks, and jalapeno bites!    Address – 15 Bath Street, Glasgow, G2 1HY    Website –  https://glasgow.junglerumble.co.uk/   Instagram – @junglerumbleglasgow   Facebook – Jungle Rumble Adventure Golf Glasgo...

Whether you're new to the city, or have lived here your whole life, there's no excuse to not give it a go, trust me, it won't disappoint!

But before you go, there are a couple of things you should know: Make sure you start early! possibly late morning if you're feeling adventurous, or early afternoon at the latest to giv...
