Glenroy Bar

Great bar, good selection of drinks, weekend entertainment is fantastic. One of the best real bars in balloch.

Met some nice people here. Had a meal in the restaurant, fairly priced and very nice.
Only downside was staff not aware of promotional price of my drink so by the end of the day l was 5pounds out of pocket, when I pointed this out, there's nothing we can do about it now.

Drinks were served on plastic tumblers, even if you were drinking inside. Music was far too loud for such a small place, couldn't hear friends even when they were shouting. Female bar staff was sour faced, never cracked a smile.

Went with family for Xmas dinner today, it's hard to decide which was worse the food or the staff. The amount of glasses broken at tables I hope they have shares in a glass factory, the time waiting for the food to arrive and still needing to ask for other members of the family's meal was abismal. Asked for the music to be turned down 3x as we could not hear each other talk as it was far too loud, 1 member of staff would turn it down and another would put it back up, it was the worst Christmas meal we have had and at £65 a head the only decent part of the meal was the ice cream which we had to request as it had not arrived and still wait a further 40 mins to get it.

Sadly myself & 4 quite pals (all over 50) popped in for a night of darts & beers as we saw a dartboard all lit up through the window... unfortunately it was pretty clear they didn't want us in there? The Bar staff seemed genuinely angry that they had to get off a stool,put down their phone and serve us...not a smile,thank you or anything.
The 6 other people smattered around the place stared solemnly into their beers while we tried to play darts...they then told us we had to stop playing darts as it was going to get busy?? This was 9:30 on a Saturday night in a small corner away from the main area and it was dead...like I say we were about to play some darts (our own darts as it's a £10 deposit to use theirs) and spend a good few quid in there but we quickly drank up and left... They clearly didn't want our business even on a cold, quiet January night...never going back which was probably their intention..but to be fair the one pint we did buy was lovely in a clean glass at a fair price...and the restaurant attached looked brilliant although it was closed.
We found another bar nearby which was the polar opposite and had a lovely evening & that pub made a few quid so all turned ok.

Omg I've never been so cold was at the public house Glen Roy (back room)was in there for a special 18th birthday party it was so so cold even polar bears didnt want to stay the amount of cash that was secured for buffet and the use of the hall was rediculious if It was me I would be looking for an apology and my cash back how disappointing for every one who was at the party so shocked to see guest's leaving very early as the hall was very cold. drinks were served in plastic tumblers.......
One guest had a nasty accident in the toilet as the toilet bowel had crashed to the floor causing her to fall as the toilet was not secured so guest had a nasty tumble and was very very lucky not to have been hurt to badly I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND THE BACK ROOM

Popped in for a drink as was a visit to the area. Had two kids with me, however as licensing laws seem to change from pub to pub, I thought I’d ask if children were welcome for us to be inside for one drink. Horrid woman behind the bar said ‘no, outside’ like they were some kind of dogs. Wife and kids sat outside, so I ordered a drink and her attitude was vile. No please, no thank you, slammed glasses down. She is certainly one for the locals!! Probably literally. Beer was terrible, music horrid and generally a hole of a place. Why people employ creatures like this I don’t know. Glad I’m double jabbed

Staff were rude from the moment we signed in then told us 3 times they would serve us at the table, wouldn't serve us and ignored us so badly we had 1 drink in an hour so we eventually left. They had no problem serving their regular punters who came in after us, all while completely avoiding us. All the bar staff would do well to get a job outwith hopsitality and in general should gain some manners bunch of unhospitable amateurs.
