The Gannet is a three rosette / Michelin bib gourmand Restaurant in the heart of finnieston, Glasgow. Serving the best seasonal Scottish produce.
In the summer of 2012 Peter, Ivan and business partner Pete Read set off on a trip to the Hebrides to source produce for the restaurant they were planning to open in Glasgow's West End. By the end of the trip having met scallop divers, oyster growers, fishermen, smokers, farmers, game producers and many interesting people besides, they also had a name for their new venture. Something that evokes Scotland’s Hebridean coastlines, giving a sense of place and landscape and at the same time offering a cheeky culinary reference as a monikers for those with large appetites: “The Gannet” was christened.
Taking up residence in a vacant tenement building in the Finnieston area has proved a significant undertaking. Derelict for almost a decade, the space comprised just 3 walls and a single basement level floor over two stories when work started. Many months on and with the help of Crichton & Simpson Architects it has been transformed into an exciting, contemporary setting for and urban bar/ restaurant.
Expect a modern take on classical cooking at The Gannet, with menus that celebrate the best of Scottish produce, dictated by the rhythms of the British seasons. Whether it’s the small “bar plates”, the more substantial “restaurant” dishes or even our banqueting set pieces for larger groups, our commitment to using the best, seasonally available Scottish and British produce will always be the focus, We look forward to welcoming you to The Gannet.
