Through the House

Through the House is a coffee and music venue at 15 High Street, at the old heart of Glasgow by the Tolbooth Steeple. It describes itself as Glasgow's living room: guest-roaster coffee by day, with live music, pop-up events and yoga classes filling the space at other times.

Through the House

Coffee with a rotating cast

The coffee changes with a regular run of guest roasters, recently including Harmony from York and RISH, so regulars can taste something different from one visit to the next. It is a place to sit with a cup rather than grab and go. Teas are also on offer for non-coffee drinkers.

Gigs, pop-ups and classes

What sets it apart is the programme. The room hosts live music and pop-up events, and evening yoga classes such as vinyasa flow. Events are announced on its Instagram, @through.the.house, so check before you visit if you want to catch something on. That mix of daytime café and evening venue is what gives it the living-room feel it is named for, somewhere to linger rather than rush.

Where it sits

The High Street runs up from Glasgow Cross and the Tolbooth Steeple towards the Cathedral, so this is a good stop on a walk between the Merchant City and Glasgow Cathedral and the Necropolis. Nearby there is plenty more to eat, from Six by Nico to the cafés of Wilson Street. The High Street is one of the oldest streets in the city, running between the medieval cross and the cathedral.
