And despite the white tablecloths, tartan and the waiting staff’s kilts, The Buttery oozes a refined calm and warmth.

Stirlingshire-born Alexander “Greek” Thompson took much of his inspiration from the Greeks, Egyptians and other ancient civilisations, with him putting this into practise in his many Glasgow buildings, which included blocks of tenements, suburban villas and three extraordinary Presbyterian churches. The St Vincent Street Church is the only intact survivor of his churches, with its design offering great insight into his style. Other important works still standing include Moray Place, Great Western Terrace, Egyptian Halls in Union Street, Grecian Buildings in Sauchiehall Street, and his villa, Holmwood House, at Cathcart, which is now owned by the National Trust for Scotland.
