See my other comment. It depends on whether we count the age of pubs as being inside Glasgow or not at the time of being built.

Hielan Jessie (albeit renamed, but has still always been a pub) was opened in 1771. The Scotia opened in 1792. So, The Highland Jessie beats The Scotia by a solid 21 years there. BUT, it wasn't inside Glasgow's boundaries for those years. Calton became part of Glasgow in 1846, so while the Heilan Jessie is 249 years old, it has only been a GLASGOW pub for 174 years to the Scotia's 228 years.

It seems silly, I know.
