Punters can also enjoy panoramic views stretching from the city's rooftops to the Cathkin Braes.
SíSí Rooftop boasts 100 indoor seats and a 60-seat open-air terrace, as well as DJ booths and a regular programme of events.
Cocktails on offer include a green bloody maria, mezcal paloma and spicy margarita.
There will be an extensive wine list and beers on draught.
A ceiling mural by Glasgow illustrator and tattooist Pelikan Baba shows margarita-sipping figures floating across a pale sky, painted in bold colours and loose lines.
The menu will feature signature dishes including hand-dived scallop ceviche verde and steak tartare tostada, alongside indulgent desserts and bar snacks.
Claire Mcilvenny, General Manager at SíSí Rooftop said: "SíSí was designed to move with the day. We wanted it to feel easy and welcoming in the daytime: the kind of place you can catch up over coffee, but with space to truly come alive at night. We believe it will become one of the places to be in Glasgow.
"It was important for us to collaborate with local artists and Pelikan Baba has done an incredible job with the ceiling mural. It's properly eye-catching, but it's the small Glasgow details that make this so special.
"There's always something new to spot, and of course, it makes a great photo, too.
"After lots of hard work behind the scenes, we're incredibly excited to finally open our doors in just a few weeks."
Trendy English seaside town has rooftop bar that 'feels like the Med'
SíSí is set to open on Friday, August 1.

Love Island star Toni's mum reveals real reason she made TikTok account private amid rumours she's suing ITV
She set the record straight prior to stepping foot in the Mallorca villa LOVE Island star Toni Laites' mum has clapped back at rumours she's suing ITV after making her new TikTok account private. The proud parent became the centre of attention after deleting social media videos calling out a host of ITV2 stars, despite only setting up the page weeks ago. 6 Love Island star Toni Laites's mum has revealed the real reason she made her TikTok account private Credit: Instagram 6 Florida-based Leslie entered the villa last night Credit: Eroteme 6 American bombshell Toni's mum said speculation she was suing ITV was 'not real' Credit: Eroteme It came just hours before Florida-based Leslie sent show fans into a frenzy as she took the long-haul flight to the Mallorca villa. ITV previously confirmed the return of the very popular Meet The Family segment, set to air in the lead-up to the final. The feature, which sees Islanders reunited with their family members and friends inside the villa, has long been a staple of the series. On Tuesday, fans weren't disappointed as Leslie, dressed in a black bandeau dress adorned with a pink petal pattern came to chat to Toni and her Love Island partner, Cach. Shortly before the reunion, she took to her TikTok page to address the mounting speculation she was taking legal action against the broadcaster. The rumour started on a Love Island fan page and Leslie said: "My accounts were set to private because I had other stuff to do not because myself and Shakira's mum are suing ITV. "We are definitely not, that rumour should be put to rest immediately. "There's even a rumour that she and I were spotted in London together with an attorney, also 100 per cent fake news." Leslie added: "It is not real. Love Island star Toni's mum reveals how she really feels about Harrison's exit after hittng out at her daughter "I cant wait for you guys to see the episode and we will talk about it." She then wrapped her chat with the words: "Other than that, I just wanted to reassure you we are all good, just no lawsuit. "Hope you have a great night." Toni's mum has been a regular online commenting on the antics on the matchmaking show. She previously broke down in tears and told how she was "really disappointed" in her daughter after she left Cach and reunited with Harrison. She then told how she really felt about bombshell Harrison's exit in another clip. VILLA ENTRY On Tuesday's episode, Toni was sitting on the terrace, when suddenly she heard her mum Leslie shout: 'Is Toni here? Where's Toni?' Realising friends and family have come to visit the Villa, Toni raced down the stairs to greet her mum who had flown in from Florida. Toni's best friend Marielle also made the trip and she joked of being in the Villa: 'It's like meeting our Sims in real life!' As they caught up, talk turned to her daughter's romantic relationships in the Villa, and Leslie said: 'The Harrison thing - I'd love to know what voodoo spell he put on you.' Toni replied: 'Sometimes you have to get burned 150 times before you can't get burnt anymore.' Leslie insisted of Cach: 'You have the most amazing man. His morals, his ethics, his calm demeanour when he is confronted with a bad situation… he is my king.' Toni laughingly replied: 'No, he's my king - back off!' FAN FAVE Toni and Cach have had a bumpy romance so far on the show, hindered by Toni and Harrison's will-they-won't-they situation. Casa Amor lad Cach is now coupled up with American stunner Toni, despite his embarrassment and tears after she ditched him for Harrison at a previous recoupling. His sister then grilled Toni on making Cach cry yet despite the awkward chat, fans were elated at Leslie's appearance on-screen. They praised the American, and her reaction to Toni's man, and one wrote on Instagram: "Toni's mum is a sweetheart !! Cach deserved those words for sure." A second posted: "Toni's mum has stated EVERY FACT. Cach handled it very well. His parents must be SO SO proud." A third noted: "Toni's mum, what a beautiful woman she is." One then added: "Okay that speech from Toni's mom made me tear up a little… Cach what an incredible guy." Another surmised: "I love this and Toni's mum is so beautiful and she deserves the world." 6 Leslie told her TikTok page speculation she had met with an attorney was 'fake news' Credit: TikTok / lipglossles 6 Fans praised Leslie's reaction to Cach on the ITV2 show Credit: Eroteme

Alongside her best friends, Miranda and Gordo, Lizzie dealt with a host of crushes, school drama, and embarrassing moments. Following the TV show, The Lizzie McGuire Movie was released, with Lizzie travelling to Rome and getting mistaken for a pop star. It became a box-office success and a beloved send-off to the series, which ended after this. SAD NEWS 4 Hilary sadly squashed rumours of a reboot Credit: Disney Hilary announced in 2020 that a Lizzie McGuire reboot had been cancelled because "the stars didn't align." The actress shared the sad news in an Instagram post, saying: 'I've been so honoured to have the character of Lizzie in my life. 'She has made such a lasting impact on many, including myself. "To see the fans' loyalty and love for her, to this day, means so much to me." Hilary continued: "I know the efforts and conversations have been everywhere trying to make a reboot work but, sadly & despite everyone's best efforts, it isn't going to happen. 'I want any reboot of Lizzie to be honest and authentic to who Lizzie would be today. It's what the character deserves.' The actress added: "We can all take a moment to mourn the amazing woman she would have been and the adventures we would have taken with her. "I'm very sad, but I promise everyone tried their best and the stars just didn't align." Hilary concluded the note by referencing the character's famous song from The Lizzie McGuire Movie, writing: "Hey now, this is what 2020s made of."

Porn sets, wild dogs and knitting: 30 years of Yancey Richardson gallery
Mitch Epstein has spent five decades photographing American life with wry empathy and formal precision. A pioneer of colour photography in the 1970s, he captured the rituals, diversions and contradictions of a pre-digital America, and documented American leisure with saturated colour and cinematic complexity. Yancey Richardson: Celebrating 30 Years is at Yancey Richardson, New York until 15 August Photograph: Mitch Epstein Carolyn Drake's practice challenges traditional boundaries between author and subject, and blends photography with embroidery, collage and sculpture. This image comes from Knit Club, a project with a group of women in Mississippi that explores identity and community. The series was shortlisted for the Paris Photo Aperture and Lucie Photo Book awards. See more here Photograph: Carolyn Drake Zanele Muholi is a visual activist and photographer who documents and celebrates the lives of Black LGBTQ+ communities in South Africa. Since 2006, Muholi has been engaged in Faces and Phases, a project portraying Black lesbian and transgender individuals with dignity and resilience. Their mission is to rewrite South Africa's queer visual history, affirming presence and resistance amid widespread hate. See more here Photograph: Zanele Muholi Jared Bark is best known for his performances in photo booths between 1969 and 1976. He initially used public booths, but ultimately acquired a secondhand one of his own, complicating the notion of a photo booth as a site of both public and private performance Photograph: Jared Bark Larry Sultan grew up in California's San Fernando Valley, which was a source of inspiration for a number of his projects. His series The Valley (2004) addresses the use of ordinary homes as sets for pornographic films, and asks why the ideal of middle-class domesticity lends itself to this most curious form of cultural appropriation Photograph: Larry Sultan Lynn Saville photographs cities between twilight and dawn, capturing transitional, often deserted urban spaces. Her images focus on fundamental city elements – bridges, billboards, walls – existing independently of urban life. In her New York night photographs, the city appears suspended in time, revealing the shift from day to night and the transformation of industrial areas into residential neighbourhoods Photograph: Lynn Saville Spanning more than 40 years, John Divola's work has consistently questioned the limits of photography. His series Dogs Chasing My Car in the Desert (1996–98) comprises portraits of dogs that he photographed in motion with a motorised 35mm camera. The grainy black-and-white images evoke the spirit of Eadweard Muybridge's stop-motion studies, and explore the herding relationship between man and animal with a slightly comic approach Photograph: John Divola Matt Lipps creates complex photographic works by physically assembling cutout images from magazines and books into three-dimensional tableaux, which he then re-photographs and enlarges. In the 2019 series Where Figure Becomes Ground, he overlays iconic 1990s fashion images of supermodels such as Kate Moss and Cindy Crawford on to archival documentary photos from US Camera Annual (1938–69). The silhouettes of these figures serve as windows revealing historical moments from the second world war, and highlight photography's constructed nature and shared visual language across disparate genres Photograph: Matt Lipps David Hilliard's large-scale, multi-panelled photographs transform intimate, personal moments into richly layered narratives that explore masculinity, aging, sexuality and spirituality. Andreu (Bathroom Mirror) captures a quiet moment of vulnerability and contemplation, using multiple perspectives to blur the lines between autobiography and fiction. His work balances formal storytelling with deeply personal insight, elevating the everyday to something both familiar and elusive Photograph: David Hilliard Tania Franco Klein creates staged, cinematic photographs that explore the psychological tensions of life in the digital age. In her series Positive Disintegration (2016–2019), she uses self-portraits to depict the emotional toll of relentless productivity and self-optimisation, inspired by Byung-Chul Han's The Burnout Society. Her work offers a surreal collage of experiences reflecting the fragmented nature of contemporary life. She lives and works in Mexico City. You can see more here and here Photograph: Tania Franco Klein/ courtesy Yancey Richardson Terry Evans is celebrated for her evocative photographs of the American Midwest's landscapes and people. Growing up on the prairie instilled in her a deep connection to the Great Plains, which she has documented since the 1970s. Her work challenges common perceptions of the prairie, revealing its rich ecological diversity and complex cultural history. Her Inhabited Prairie series (1990–94) features black-and-white aerial images showing how farming, industry and military activity have transformed the Kansas landscape Photograph: Terry Evans Mark Steinmetz is known for his intimate black-and-white images of youth and suburban life in the American south. Since the mid-1980s, he has used chance encounters to create portraits of solitary figures and everyday scenes that feel quietly introspective. Steinmetz's work reveals the subtle complexities of growing up and the shifting landscapes of small-town America. You can see more here Photograph: Mark Steinmetz Italian artist Olivo Barbieri is known for disorienting aerial photographs that blur the line between reality and representation. In Alps - Geographies and People, he uses a technique he calls 'solid colour' to partially erase the mountain landscape, drawing attention to its elemental form. Shot from a helicopter, the image captures climbers mid traverse, transforming the Alps into both stage and hallucination Photograph: Olivo Barbieri After she shifted from photographing people to still lifes, Laura Letinsky's carefully crafted scenes often focus on remnants of meals. In her 2013 series Albeit, she uses flatbed scanners and magazine cutouts to dissolve hierarchies of high and low imagery, embracing the scanner's restrictions to explore form. The layered compositions featuring fruit, cakes, goblets and cutlery suggest meals consumed, while reflecting on how photographs instruct how we build our lives Photograph: Laura Letinsky Ori Gersht explores the tension between beauty and violence. In Becoming, postcards of still-life paintings from the Rijksmuseum, the Getty and the Met are printed on glass and then shattered, capturing the instant of collapse. The resulting image visualises a return to disorder and the fragility of collective memory Photograph: Ori Gersht Sharon Core creates meticulously crafted photographs that blur the line between reality and illusion. By recreating historic still lifes and iconic artworks – often growing her own fruits and flowers or sourcing antique objects – Core explores authenticity, artifice and photography's relationship to painting. Her series Early American (2007–10) reimagines 19th-century still lifes inspired by Raphaelle Peale, using carefully cultivated produce and period glassware to evoke a time before photography Photograph: Sharon Core/ courtesy Yancey Richardson
