He said: “We loved introducing The Devil’s Roast concept to Glasgow, transforming an already well-loved bar into a day-to-night venue.
"We’ve been thrilled with the success of it, and we’re excited to bring a similar concept to the city, with a big focus on an elevated brunch offering. “We’ll soon introduce our night concept, featuring small plates and both classic and signature cocktails until late. “Using local suppliers is at the heart of every decision we make, it’s something we’re extremely passionate about.
"We’re kicking things off with a speciality brew from The Good Coffee Cartel, and some fantastic baked goods from Wheatberry Bakery. “The team is really looking forward to bringing new life back into the beloved venue during the day as well as at night. "It’s undergone some refurbishment so might not be quite as people remember, but it’s a brand-new chapter and a real privilege to be working in such a historic space.
