The Loveable Rogue gastropub in Glasgow’s West End is expanding east, with the announcement that it is to open its second concept in Dennistoun this winter on the site that was home to Beat 6.
Owners Joe Lazzerini and Amalia Colaluca are planning a flexible, relaxed, cosy and accessible 35-cover neighbourhood restaurant where everybody is welcome. It will offer home-cooked comfort food such as Scotch Eggs with Chorizo, Pork with Black Pudding, Chicken and Mushroom Pie, and traditional Sunday afternoon beef roasts.
Head chef and co-owner Joe Lazzerini said, “We will offer hearty, unfussy and delicious food that everyone can tuck into. New to our East End location will be a varied daily menu of classic breakfast and brunch dishes alongside Rogue’s heartier fare as well as introducing our signature Sunday roast to the neighbourhood – served all day every Sunday”.
Co-owner Amalia Colaluca added,“By combining our focus on comfort food and friendly neighbourhood service, The Loveable Rogue East will create a cosy dining environment that is dynamic yet relaxed. The East End of Glasgow, known for its friendly community spirit and independent businesses, is the ideal location for our second location.”
Like all good neighbourhood hangouts, the interiors, say the owners, will be homey and earthy, with a tasteful mix of exposed brick and beams, comfy furnishings, and the welcome sight of an open kitchen for all to view.
