Glasgow Restaurants Serve Up Official Support for Glasgow 2026 with Foodie Trail
11 popular venues across Glasgow, including Glaschu, Gōst, Cuvée and BAaD, are set to serve up Commonwealth Games inspired food and drink menu items in a Glasgow 2026 Foodie Trail as The Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars, one of Glasgow’s biggest hospitality groups, becomes an Official Supporter of Glasgow 2026 and Team Scotland.
As an Official Supporter, Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars will deliver hospitality events for the Games and its venues will feature across the Glasgow 2026 website and app. From 23 July to 2 August, BAad will also host Games activations. The Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars are also an Official Supporter of Team Scotland.
The Games will unfold over an eight-mile corridor in the city and from Friday 17th July, fans can pick up a ‘Passport’ from participating venues across the Games footprint and collect stamps as they explore food and drink that will transport them to Commonwealth nations and territories.
Glasgow chefs will be cooking up unique dishes including Australian meat pie at The Drake, Jamaican jerk chicken at The Noble, Indian butter chicken pizza at Nonna Said and Canadian duck confit poutine at Maison by Glaschu.
Mixologists across the city will also be getting creative with a special range of drinks aligned to Glasgow 2026’s ambition to deliver a Circular Games that maximises using beer wastage, recycled coffee grounds and even re-purposed pizza sugo in a range of zero-waste cocktails.
In celebration of the Games, the hospitality group will offer 20% off food across all venues from Friday 17th July to Friday 7th August for anyone collecting stamps on the Glasgow Foodie Trail.
Diane McLeod, Director of Games Services at Glasgow 2026 said: “The Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars have a reputation as a leading force in Glasgow’s hospitality scene. As the city comes alive with the Games, we know they’ll bring energy, creativity and atmosphere to the Games experience beyond the sport for athletes, spectators and visitors to the city.
“Their sustainability focused drinks menu aligns brilliantly with our sustainability ambitions, and their Glasgow 2026 passport is a fantastic way to ensure the excitement and buzz of the competition is felt right across the city by fans, volunteers, visitors and locals.”
John Molloy, Director of Food at The Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars, said: “Glasgow has always been a city that welcomes people through its hospitality, and with visitors arriving from across the Commonwealth this summer, we wanted to create something that celebrates both the Games and the incredible diversity of flavours found across the nations and territories taking part. From Jamaican jerk chicken to Canadian poutine and Australian meat pies, every dish on the Foodie Trail has been designed to give people a memorable taste of the Commonwealth while showcasing the creativity and warmth of Glasgow’s food scene.”
Ewan Angus, Head Mixologist at The Superlative Collection and Merchant Pubs & Bars, added: “Our drinks menu is all about innovation and sustainability. We’ve challenged our teams to create a variety of drinks that not only deliver bold flavours and theatre for visitors during the Games, but also support Glasgow 2026’s ambition to deliver a more circular event. Using ingredients that would otherwise go to waste from recycled champagne foam to repurposed pizza sugo and beer wastage, we’re showing that sustainability and world-class hospitality can go hand in hand.”
