Acid Bar is a gorgeous, light-filled, vibrant space with art adorning its walls, a welcoming spot for all the family (it’s child and dog friendly) it’s the perfect stop off for brunch and lunch to sit in or take away. The vast tables and access to plus points make it an ideal place to work, have meetings or enjoy a spot of people watching with the studio residents, artists and musicians, who wander in and out throughout the day.
Mhairi Taylor, Owner of Cafezique, said: “We are thrilled to be the next residency at the Acid Bar. As Glaswegians we have all been fans of SWG3 since the very beginning and are in awe of what the team have achieved and the amazing plans they have going forward. The Acid Bar is beautiful both inside and out and we can’t wait to get started.”
Meryl Gilbert, Head of Commercial Events & Partnerships, said: “We are delighted to be welcoming Cafezique to take the reins of the new Acid Bar residency at SWG3. We’ve hosted some incredible residencies throughout the years lasting anything from three months to a year including Go Sangatsu from Five March, Ka Pao, Ox & Finch, Madlab by Cail Bruich and Julie’s Kopitiam. We can’t wait to welcome Mhairi Taylor and her Cafezique team for the next one and share their brilliant menu with you all.”
