This is one of my favorite restaurants in the lovely area.
The food is amazing and delicious, and the staff are very welcoming. The restaurant has a cozy atmosphere, and every dish I’ve tried during my visits has been delightful. I will definitely be back and highly recommend it!
The menu has vegetarian options and the restaurant is wheelchair accessible, with plenty of free car park space.

My partner and I visited this evening and it was delicious! He took advantage of the 14.99 steak deal which got him a sirloin steak and a can of juice, and I got the half rack of ribs that came with chips and a salad. No complaints from either of us it was delicious! And a good sized portion as well! The man who served us was so friendly and welcoming giving us advice on the food and telling us about the steak deal. This is our second time returning and we will definitely be back!

Great food with American classics including tasty Po’boy sandwiches! The beef brisket is delicious and the portions are very big. The fried shrimp was amazing too. Cute neighborhood place with friendly service.

Anyone remember the good old days of Bar Gumbo in Byres Road? It was a sad day when they closed their doors, but! The good news is, the food whisperer behind some of their mouth watering dishes is now whipping up some classic (and new) dishes at Po’Boyz!
The location is a little odd, next to a Papa Johns and a Greggs, but on the plus side, there’s plenty of parking available. Although there is seating inside, they also have an outdoor section (for the better weather) and even do takeaways. Inside, décor is Southern soul meets Glasgow grit, and on arrival the owner was incredibly friendly, allowing us the pick of available seating.
For food we had Chicken Tenders, the Pulled Pork Hot Dog, Corn on the Cob, hand cut chips and of course, the Beef Brisket Po’boy (one of my favourites from Bar Gumbo). And WOW, the Po’boy brought back so many memories! It tasted just as good as it did all those years ago; smoky, tender, fresh and with a nice crunch of slaw. The tenders were crisp, chunky and had an almost Pakora vibe, and the hand cut chips, THE HAND CUT CHIPS!! Less of a side-piece and more of a headliner! Incredible flavour. The charred corn was also a hit with us. The Pulled Pork Hot Dog tasted good (according to my daughter) although it looked a little basic to me.
Price-wise we were just under £50 for the 3 of us, including soft drinks. Which I was more than happy with. They don’t accept card, but you can do a bank transfer (if you have online banking), or cash also works (card machine just outside the restaurant). They are also dog friendly, which was a big plus for us!
Great food, reasonable prices and a lovely owner that made us feel right at home.

I ordered pizza from Po’ Boys, and it was hands down the best pizza I’ve ever had! The crust was perfectly fresh, crunchy, and flavorful, and every bite was just amazing. You can really tell they put care into making it. I’ll definitely be coming back again and again. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much for a wonderful experience with my son’s 12th birthday! I needed a place near his school to take a group of boys for dinner and this restaurant was perfect. Communication at the time of booking was fast and clear. They were really helpful and accommodating with everything and patient with preteen boys, haha. Even helped decorate when I was in a rush. The pizza and sides we got were perfect for a group setting and all the boys enjoyed it. Overall made a potentially stressful day very easy. Sorry for the noise! We will be back on calmer occasions.

We have just returned from Po’Boyz after having a delicious meal, we both had pizza’s, he had the double pepperoni and I had the BBQ, we got fries on the side and the Hush puppies, which were so delicious that we scoffed them before anything else, so the owner brought us another portion! We are already planning another visit for my dad’s birthday, because we noticed they do ribs, dad loves ribs, and we want to try the burgers and of course the Mac and cheese side. Can’t wait to come back. I wish we asked the owners name, he was lovely, he looked after us, especially with that extra portion of hush puppies, thanks again!

I arrived on a quiet Monday. Owner was delighted to see me, had a very personal and passionate experience with him, food proud he his. I had a lovey seasoned streak and chips, beer offer on food was a good deal. This man you can tell is passionate for his business. People should visit here regularly as small businesses won’t last if not supported.
Food was brilliant. Nice location and shop.

First timer – just been for lunch and sat outside – fantastic place, can’t fault anything!
• Food: Clearly a lot of stuff made in-house, clean, tasty – absolutely no negatives! The chips were banging and home made, big shoutout for that.
• Service: Friendly, polite, attentive – and the food came out nice and quick. Lovely staff.
• Cost: We got items from the lunch menu, which was outstanding value for money.
Keen to come back and try some other things on the menu, cheers guys!
