Second coming

Independent restaurant owners, Joe Lazzerini and Amalia Colaluca, are set to introduce their second concept to Glasgow’s this winter when they open The LoveableRogue East End on Whitehill Street in Dennistoun. 

The Glasgow based couple, who are partners in life and in business, will offer a flexible, relaxed, cosy and accessible neighbourhood restaurant where everybody is welcome. The family-friendly restaurant will entice residents in Dennistoun looking for home-cooked comfort food such as Scotch Egg with Chorizo, Pork with Black Pudding, Chicken and Mushroom Pie, or traditional Sunday afternoon beef roasts.

Local

With fresh, home-cooked dishes at the heart of the inspiration for The Loveable Rogue, diners will enjoy some of the best comfort foods Glasgow has to offer alongside a wide selection of wines, locally brewed ales, beers, spirits and classic cocktails.  

The venue at 10 Whitehill St, formerly home to Beat 6, will house a 35-cover neighbourhood restaurant and will showcase a seasonal well-crafted daily breakfast and brunch menu, evening small plates menu and Sunday roast menu using quality ingredients and local produce. 

Hearty, unfussy and delicious

Each flavoursome dish will offer guests a unique twist on family favourites and traditional recipes including Lobster Mac’n’Cheese and a Classic Kiev with Curried Cauliflower. From classic Roast Beef and Yorkshire Puddings to Sunday roast dinners with a twist, a relaxing Sunday lunch with friends and family is not to be missed – The Loveable Rogue East End Sunday feast will emulate its West End location and aim to be ‘the king’ of the weekend menu. 

Head chef and co-owner Joe Lazzerini said: “We will offer hearty, unfussy and delicious food that everyone can tuck into. New to our East End location will be a varied daily menu of classic breakfast and brunch dishes alongside Rogue’s heartier fare, as well as introducing our signature Sunday roast to the neighbourhood – served all day every Sunday”.

Brunch 

The Loveable Rogue East plans to create eight new jobs as it opens later this month. The Loveable Rogue East will be open Tuesday through Sunday; Tuesday – Saturdays 9am – 3pm for breakfast and brunch, and 5pm to late for an evening small plates menu. On Sundays, the restaurant will open at 11.30am and serve Sunday roast all day.

Co-owner Amalia Colaluca said: “By combining our focus on comfort food and friendly neighbourhood service, TheLoveable Rogue East will create a cosy dining environment that is dynamic yet relaxed. The East End of Glasgow, known for its friendly community spirit and independent businesses, is the ideal location for our second location”

Like all good neighbourhood hangouts, the interiors will be homely and earthy, with a tasteful mix of exposed brick and beams, comfy furnishings, and the welcome sight of an open kitchen for all to view.
