A 'cosy' new pub opening in Glasgow promises to 'bring something different' to the city's food and drink scene.
The French Horn officially opens at 508 Great Western Road on Thursday, August 22, replacing The Bakehouse which suddenly shut in July after two years.
Two big names in the hospitality industry are embarking on this new venture: Paul Sloan and Neil Morrison.

Paul is the name behind Glasgow restaurants Zhima, Topalabamba, Panang and Chaakoo Bombay Cafe, while Neil is the owner of Macgochans and Roslyn House in Tobermory, The Lochside in Bowmore and the Ben Nevis Bar in Fort William.
Inspired by the rustic bars and bistros of Paris, The French Horn serves a range of classic French dishes across brunch, lunch and dinner.
Expect baked croissants and baguettes, oysters and mussels, steak frites, coquilles St Jacques, cheese and charcuterie boards and a special menu of croque monsieurs.
Completing the menu is a range of 15 wines by the glass, crémants and champagnes as well as French beers, a whisky range and a cocktail menu.

Guests can relax in The French Horn’s cosy, rustic bar area, which seats 62, or the comfortable booths in the bistro area, which sits 68.
French antique furniture, open fires, stunning artwork and French artefacts are dotted throughout the venue, while regular live music and DJs will add to the ambience.
Speaking about what The French Horn has to offer, Neil said: “From a leisurely brunch or lunch to dinner, cocktails and live music – The French Horn evolves throughout the day whilst retaining its cosy, relaxed and welcoming ambience, and amazing service from our incredible team led by general manager Craig Mckay.
“We think The French Horn brings something new to the vibrant west end – from our own take on French favourites to our fantastic cheese and charcuterie counter, to the incredible wine list and amazing cocktails.
“We’re delighted to be opening The French Horn and look forward to welcoming everyone!”
