HOT World Cuisine Glasgow

How it works

You pay a set price and graze from hundreds of dishes across themed stations. Alongside the curries, stir-fries, pizza and pasta there is a live grill cooking to order and carvery-style options. Table times are capped, so arrive hungry rather than planning a slow evening. Daily totals run to several hundred dishes, so pace yourself and take small plates to try more.

Who it suits

Buffets like this come into their own for families with mixed tastes and for big groups, because everyone eats what they like and children can try small amounts of many things. Children below a set height pay a reduced price. The dessert station is a large part of the appeal, with chocolate fountains, cheesecakes and Indian sweets. It is open every day from midday into the evening.

Getting there

Paisley Road sits on the south side of the Clyde, a short drive or taxi from the city centre and close to Glasgow Quay, the Science Centre and the SEC area. It is a practical option before or after a film at the nearby Odeon Luxe or a round of crazy golf. HOT started in Glasgow and also runs a restaurant in Edinburgh.
