The Big Feed Kitchen at Princes Square has undergone a transformation with Glasgow's uber-cool Baked Pizza and Rafa’s Tacos taking charge.
Baked X Rafa’s at Big Feed Kitchen has turned the venue into a laid-back surf shack featuring a menu filled with the very best pizzas, tacos, beers and cocktails.
A result of trial runs last year, the new late-night hang-out spot offers some of Glasgow's best street food served in a relaxed restaurant setting, within the iconic city centre shopping destination.
Daryl Leach of Baked Pizza, whose original outlet is on Duke Street, and Gregor Forest of Rafa’s Tacos, also found down the famed Hidden Lane, have been let loose to do as they want with the venue, bringing a new look, totally new menus and drinks, and even new staff and systems.

Daryl said: “Baked x Rafa’s are excited to bring you a new late-night hang-out spot focusing on tacos, pizza, and casual boozing located in the heart of the city centre.
“Gregor and I will be curating the space with plenty of events and pop-ups along the way. Expect new takes on our classics, and enjoy the warm atmosphere and large seating areas in our new surf shack.
“We’re both bringing new and exciting flavour combinations that have been reworked to work tapas style with drinks pairings. Expect light bites that pack a lot of flavours, and killer cocktails to wash it down.”
With a key emphasis on customer service, the pair say there is lots of customisation available for people to have their food their way.
Not only that, you can even buy surf stuff, and ingredients from Mexico and Italy to whip up your own inspired creations at home.
Gregor said: “We have a massive focus on serving bespoke products but provide a casual dining atmosphere. The taco and pizza bar takes centre stage where customers can order food to their own specifications. It’s really different and really cool.
“Vintage surf and skate gear are for sale on the walls as well as vintage posters and a small deli section allowing customers to buy bespoke ingredients from Italy and Mexico.
“We feel like what we are doing here is totally unique and we’re excited to see what people think of it all.”
They added that there’s been a lot of work put into the bar offering too, so you can expect something for everyone on the drinks front.
Daryl said: “With a new line of cocktails our bar will cater to the needs of the guest and complement the food with care. The bar will continuously be evolving with new ideas not just for alcohol but for all ages, shapes, and sizes.
“We have hired one of Glasgow’s best bartenders to run this bar and will be making a regular feature of his new creations on social media.”
The menus look top-notch, with mouthwatering dishes available from both brands. The restaurans will be open Friday, Saturday, Sunday from 4pm to 11pm.
Jonathan Stipanovsky of Big Feed Kitchen said: “The lunatics are taking over the asylum! We decided to unleash the guys to really let their brands flourish in our space, so people can really experience them as they’re meant to be.
“We think the results are incredibly impressive and we’re sure you will too.”
