Popular seafood eatery Crabshakk has revealed a spring opening date for their eagerly awaited second restaurant.

It's been almost since we learned of owner John Macleod's plans to open a sister location on Vinecombe Street in Glasgow's West End leaving the city's foodies desperate for an update.

In a run of posts on their social media, Crabshakk has now confirmed that they will open in March this year and are looking to recruit staff.

The original Crabshakk has become a staple of the Finneston strip since opening in 2009 and showcases the very best of Scottish produce. 

Speaking previously of his plans to expand John said: "For us, this is a good opportunity, and for me, a lifelong resident of the West End – the Botanics area in particular – I think it’s a terrific site. 

“I think it could become a lively spot with Ka Pao and some of the other businesses there already and then you have Cail Bruich around the corner making the headlines, so I feel like it would be the right time.”

We can't wait to pay them a visit soon.
