Drink: MacSorleys to close

MAcsorleys glasgow

For refurbishment

Bet you had a panic like I did!  iconic Glasgow pub will be temporarily closing its doors to customers this month as a major £250,000 refurbishment project gets underway.

MacSorley’s on Jamaica Street, is to receive a full internal refurbishment as well as new external signage and an outside pavement drinking area.




A new publican, Mickey Mullan, has arrived as well.

He said: “MacSorley’s is a Glasgow institution and I am looking forward to building even further on its reputation as a music and entertainment venue. We currently have live music four times a week and I want to extend that to every night of the week.”

The new-look MacSorley’s will feature an extensive range of drinks with five cask ales, 50 different types of whisky, 40 types of rum and 30 varieties of gin to choose from.  (Great news as good-looking pub, but has had a poor beer selection and expensive as well!)
MacSorley’s closes on Wednesday 18 January and will re-open on Friday 24 February.
