Bloc Bar Glasgow
Serves meat, vegan options available. Few things on the menu marked vegan such as veganoid hot dog & falafel and the veggie burger can be made vegan if cheese is removed. Do a breakfast for £5 on a Saturday and Sunday. Open Mon-Sun 12:00am-3:00am, Mon-Sun 11:00am-12:00am.

rough round the edges - Edit
they offer a few things but having seen other peoples reviews i went for the vegan god, and side of fries with beans. the fries were really salty although the topping was interesting.
my dog was like eating a cereal box, hard bun and not sure what the dog was but it wasn't great.
i need to lie down i feel a heart attack coming on.
Pros: nice staff, location
Cons: junk food, not very good, not value for money

Veganoid - Edit
I used to be a regular at Bar Bloc and always ordered the NotDog made Vegan. Today I tried the Veganoid and it was ridiculously tasty. Definitely a must taste

Fab creative vegan options - Edit
The chef at Bloc 'Mad Chef' posts often on social media photos and videos of his dishes and it's refreshing to see someone who genuinely seems to enjoy working with food and looking at ingredients as art tools to make creations - when you see the same old, same old menu options, with particularly dire vegetarian and vegan options, you wonder why some people become chefs.
On menu they have a freshly made vegan burger and a couple of hot dogs with all sorts of spices, fruits, and nuts inside and atop. Tonight I got to sample his latest 'Nofu, a blend of chickpeas and tofu, maple syrup, peanut butter, cashew nuts, and spices. SO good. A portion of tofu-not-tofu that satisfies and not the 2 or 3 chunks one usually gets in a noodle dish.
Knowing we'd probably have room for more food we also ordered falafel dogs and chips, which were on their Friday £4 deal. Nothing vegan available to buy as extra toppings - they use butter in their caramelised onions - but we had ketchup and mustard out on the table so that was fine. Would be good if they used a different brand of meatfree mince other than Quorn, allowing their chilli to be suitable for vegans, and vegan cheese available.
Staff were very friendly, attentive, quick, and chatty and it was a great dinner. I can't wait to get back to try their weekend vegan breakfast.
It's usually very busy, booking advised.
Pros: Interesting options, Great service, Vegan breakfasts

Tasty and good value breakfast - Edit
We had one of the best vegan breakfasts at Bloc and I thought it was good value (£6.50 including two slices of buttered toast). The breakfast includes mushrooms, beans (in a pot - yes!), black pud, scrambled tofu, fried tomato and sausage (think it was a Linda McCartney). It looks like the vegan brekkie is the only type of brekkie they do and there was also a vegan hot dog and vegan tacos on the menu. Staff were friendly too! Definitely coming back :-)
Pros: Multiple vegan options Vegan breakfast is the only
