The chances are, if you find yourself in this neck of the woods, you’re lost. While Castle Vaults lies just a stones throw from Great Western Road, so secluded is its location that many Glaswegians are unaware of its exact whereabouts. In actual fact, this is probably a good thing, as although safe enough and cheap, the bar is run down and not a particularly pleasant place to enjoy a pint. During my visit here I was joined by a man I’d never met before, who proceeded to tell me a very lengthy tale about a fall out he’d hand with auntie, who I’d also never met. Mind numbing. In many ways, he seemed genuinely thrilled just to have a new face in the bar to vent to and that, perhaps, tells you all you need to know about this place.
