| Comment | I'm moving out soon but have lived in Anniesland for roughly 6 years. There is a big Morrisons and a few cafes at Anniesland Cross on GWR (Beefcake Cafe just round the corner - more funky than the others I'd say). A couple of salons for hairdressing / barbers / beauty, 2 charity shops, some betting shops, opticians and a Poundland at Anniesland Cross too. Lots of smaller shops like Keystores and newsagents nearby too. A few take out / eat in food places and a Dominos you can sit in.
Only 2 pubs now that I know of in the area (Lock 27 and Weatherspoons; personally much prefer the former). There is also a 24 hour gym by the Morrisons and a train station, both handy.
Binghams Pond and the canal are nice for walks in Anniesland and there is a big park in nearby Knightswood (it's about 35 minutes walk to Botanic Gardens roughly too). Couple of smaller green spaces like Anniesland Meadow for dog walking or a quick potter around on a nice day.
Nice and friendly enough area but in terms of things to do I always went into the actual West End, city centre or Southside. I always felt safe walking around there in the dark or late at night and have been blessed with good neighbours too. Hope this helps :) |
