Offshore is a café on a corner of Gibson Street located very close to where the river Kelvin meets Kelvingrove Park. I have always admired the elegance of the curve of the tenement at this corner.
Knowing that Offshore offered free WiFi I had arranged to meet someone to give them a laptop with a wireless PC card I no longer needed. The café has some pleasant sofas but since it appeared to be quite popular with students with laptops all the sofas were occupied and I had to make do with an upright seat. I had a coffee which cost 1.90 and my understanding was that I could take up to an hour to relish it. Their WiFi connection worked fine [one guess what the passphrase is!]. I was using the laptop’s battery but I noticed some customers were plugged into the mains.
The staff were pleasant and friendly and the café was quite a nice, relaxed and comfortable place to be with a coffee and laptop for an hour.Publicado en: grian.wordpress.com/

The Three Craws is a pub and restaurant located on Crow Road, Glasgow, very close to Jordanhill railway station. My mum lives close by and we go for a pub lunch there every now and again. We last visited in early December. This is a popular place for lunches, the clientele typically drawn from the surrounding areas of Jordanhill and Hyndland. The atmosphere is relaxed and the interior décor and style, fresh and pleasant, rather more like a hotel than a pub by Glaswegian standards. But pub The Three Craws certainly is, offering a good selection of real ales. I had a pint of Landlord, an award winning British beer from Timothy Taylor brewery. We both had haddock in a beer batter with chips and peas which was on a special offer, an enjoyable lunch. The service was good and the bill moderate. My mum and I will be back before long!
