The Superlative Collection are opening their 7th venue in Glasgow City Centre next month.
The Noble, which will open its doors in early February on Bothwell Street, says it will “re-imagine the classic British pub” and joins The Superlative Collection’s other venues including Glaschu, Maison by Glaschu, Gōst, The Duke’s Umbrella, The Clubhouse and Blue Dog.
The 100-cover venue which will blend “the comfort of a classic pub with the refinement of a premium bar” will be headed up by Group Bar Manager, Ewan Angus, who has created a menu of signature martinis, as well as beers, wines, classic cocktails and over 30 single malts. Their speciality martini’s are made using Rotovap infusions which preserve the flavours of the fresh ingredient and The Noble will also showcase three signature cocktails in partnership with The Macallan, featuring their 12-year, 15-year and 18-year old liquids. It also offers non-alcoholic options from Heineken 0% and local brewery, Jump Ship.
The Bar snacks have been designed to sit alongside their drinks, and includes prawn tempura with lobster aioli, and Arbroath Smokie omelette and they say that their morning bacon roll is ‘the best bacon roll in Scotland’ – a buttermilk bun with thick cut smoked bacon, bacon jam and slow cooked pork belly. Food Director John Molloy has even created ‘The Glasgow Pie’ – a chicken tikka masala filled flaky roti pie, served with a side of basmati rice – saying it is a first of its kind “honouring one of the city’s favourite dishes.”
Group Bar manager, Ewan Angus, said, “There’s a lot of complexity in so many versions of classic drinks nowadays, but The Noble’s approach will be to refine and redefine drinks in a way that is simple, elegant and timeless.
“The Rotovap will allow us to take it one step further and build amazing drinks that are aesthetically clean and simple, but that will blow you away with their punchy flavour profiles. We’re starting the menu off with a selection of signature Rotovap martinis, the simplest of drinks, and I am excited to welcome guests around the bar to taste these wonderful creations.”
Director of Food, John Molloy, said, “The Noble will offer a brand new experience to Glasgow’s bustling city centre – all the character and comfort of a classic British pub, but with a hint of elegance that’ll really set it aside. We’ve taken a playful route with the menus, which feature nostalgic snacks and elevated pub classics with a Scottish flair. I can’t wait to welcome people of Glasgow and beyond through the doors of our public house, The Noble.”
