A Glasgow restaurant has been named among the top 1000 best in the world.

Cail Bruich made the prestigious annual list by La Liste, scoring a healthy 77.50%. 

The West End spot, led by head chef Lorna McNee, is the only city restaurant to end up on the publication's coveted Top 1000 Restaurants 2025.

Popular dishes include hand-dived Orkney scallops, mushroom ravioli and monkfish. 

After the restaurant was awarded a Michelin star in 2021, Lorna became the first and only female solo chef in Glasgow to have the honour.
