About The Glad Cafe
Welcome to The Glad Cafe, a not-for-profit cafe, bar and multi-arts venue in Glasgow. By day it serves as a welcoming cafe and community hub; by night, it transforms into an intimate live venue hosting music, film, theatre, talks, and community events. With a capacity of approximately 120, the basement space offers a flexible layout that prioritizes an up-close experience with standing room and edge seating in a cozy, intimate environment. We’ve got you with straightforward ticket options and easy planning steps for a great night out.
Getting to The Glad Cafe is simple. There’s on-street parking on Pollokshaws Road, and the JustPark car park opposite Langside Halls provides an additional option. Public transport is convenient, with Crossmyloof rail nearby and Queen's Park acting as a transit hub for buses and trains. After your show, explore dining options or stay overnight at nearby hotels such as Novana ApartHotel, Number 10 Hotel, or Sherbrooke Castle Hotel, all a short drive away. The venue regularly features events like The Glad Academy, Crossmylaff Comedy Night, and fundraising evenings, and has appeared in Celtic Connections and Glasgow Comedy Festival listings. Secure your seats and join the community for a night of music, film, theatre or talks at The Glad Cafe.
