The new Finsbay Bar and Restaurant owned and operated by Billy Milligan and business partner Alasdair Kellock, is going down a storm with Milngavie residents. The venue, which is fully of quirky and kitsch 70’s ideas or ‘granny chic’ as it has been lovingly described, has been kitted out by Billy and his team, who obviously have an eye for detail. Everything from an original old school blackboard to vintage G-Plan furniture, and a peacock chair, was sourced through rummaging through second hand shops and sourced from salvage experts. Billy told DRAM, “I did all the design myself and it’s funny when people come in it always reminds them of something in their past. We’ve used vintage wallpaper, clocks and seating and it is busy all day. We don’t seem to have a down time at all and it has been like that from the day we opened. We are getting all ages, and at night am quite surprised at the amount of cocktails we are selling. During the day we get folk in for coffee, lunch and late lunches and because we are dog friendly too we get a lot of dog walkers.”
