Price: two courses for £19 and three courses for £23
Opened late last year, Public House by Nico is chef Nico Simeone's gastropub offering and his third west end eatery. Situated on Great Western Road, the restaurant and bar has already gained praise for its small plates menu but it's the Sunday roast that has been attracting foodies from all over the city.
As with Nico's other restaurants, the price point is reasonable and the Sunday roast is a bargain for the quality of the food, which includes dishes such as: bone-in Ayrshire pork chop served with apple sauce or roast Speyside sirloin – both served with Yorkshire puddings, beef dripping roast potato, cauliflower cheese, roasted root vegetables and roasting juices. There's also a veggie option of salted baked celeriac served with all the trimmings.
If you're hungry, starters include a haggis scotch egg served with whisky foam and pickled turnip and the moreish Arbroath Smokie croquettes which come with a miso hollandaise.

Opened in 20xx, Porter and Rye has become one of the go-to steak restaurants in Glasgow, which means its Sunday roast deal is bound to be good.
Serving a range aged steak cuts (which diners can see from the huge meat fridge), starters which include a chargrilled Perthshire wood pigeon salad and desserts (including a George Mews cheeseboard), this is an ideal spot for a relaxing Sunday dinner.

Another of the city’s best meat joints, The Butchershop Bar and Grill have put their own spin on the traditional Sunday roast.
If you're ready to indulge or are taking advantage of the fab deal for two, starters include: potted chicken liver parfait; beet salad and moules mariniere.
For the main course, carnivores must decide between Aryshire pork chop or sirloin of Borders beef.
