Think there are multiple bars that claim to be the oldest in Glasgow:

1. **Saracen Head** \- Oldest continuous bar name/linage but has moved location several times over the centuries, now located across from the Barras
2. **Sloans** \- Likewise, not in its original building location, but claims to be older than the Scotia (don't know how, even on their website it says 1797)
3. **Old College Bar** \- now gone - but had the oldest foundations - as in though literal building foundations - and therefore claimed to be the oldest pub.
4. **The Scotia** \- I'd say it's got the best claim as has always been in that location and with that name

Maybe there are others?
