Glasgow pub famous for its £4 three-course lunch sold
Occupying the ground floor of a tenement built in 1892, The Star Bar on Eglinton Street has long assumed legendary status as a traditional Glasgow pub. Best known for serving up the cheapest three-course lunch in the city, the pub's lunch menu offers a hearty meal with options that include soup, followed by fish and chips and creamed rice with fruit to finish. One of the busiest lunchtime venues in the city, a recent video review of its cheap lunch menu has amassed over 695,000 views on YouTube. The pub has been purchased by Glasgow businessman David Low, who helped broker the takeover of Celtic FC by Fergus McCann in 1994. Mr Low's purchase of The Star Bar follows his sale of The Arlington in Glasgow's West End last October. Speaking about the purchase, Mr Low said: 'I've always had a keen interest in Glasgow's iconic bars, of which The Star Bar is a fine example and there will be more to follow. "Customers can be rest assured that I have no plans to change its distinctive character – or its famous lunch offer.'
