Your Mediterranean escape in East Kilbride, where every visit feels like stepping onto a sun-drenched European terrace
Pergola was born from our vision to create something truly special - a place where the warmth and charm of Mediterranean summer evenings could be experienced right here in Scotland. As the sister venue to the beloved Once Upon a Table, we've brought the same commitment to quality and atmosphere, but with our own unique twist.
Step through our doors and you'll immediately feel transported. The soft glow of warm lighting dances across carefully chosen wicker furniture, creating shadows and ambiance that whisper of lazy evenings on the Italian Riviera or intimate dinners in a Spanish courtyard.
This isn't just a place to grab a drink - it's an escape from the everyday, a sanctuary where conversations flow as smoothly as our carefully curated wines, and where every moment feels like a small holiday.
"We wanted to create more than just a bar - we wanted to craft an experience that makes people forget their worries and remember what it feels like to truly relax."
- The Pergola Team
