Revolution de Cuba glasgow

Last week we checked out newcomer Revolucion de Cuba on Renfield Street.  I think our memories have returned enough to put together a post (school night + lots of rum = not good!).

Location

On Renfield Street, across from Toni Macaroni and just up from Bread Meats Bread. Years ago it was a contact lens clinic, but it’s been empty a while now.

Decor

Bright colours and distressed walls covered with lots of photo space for Cuba, Castro and more.

Vibe

A live band made it hard not to get into the swing of Cuba.  A relaxed and friendly atmosphere.

Drink

Lots of rum and a few bottled beers that we hadn’t come across before, such as Crazy Mountain amber ale, Boulevard single-wide IPA and Maeloc cider.

Food

The menu is filled with Tex-Mex/Spanish fusion food.  This won’t win authentic Cuban restaurant of the year, but if you are out for a night out it does the job.  Just remember to save space for their churros with salted caramel sauce – mmmmm!

Verdict

This is a place for fun, ideal for a night out, birthday or a casual meal.
