“Let us flourish by telling the truth” Alasdair Gray
We’re deeply saddened to learn of the passing of our dear friend Alasdair Gray. Glasgow has lost a little of its sparkle today.
We are deeply saddened that a meeting that was booked here on 18th January has caused upset and hurt to some of our customers.
It is our firm belief that all individuals, no matter their ethnicity, religion, sexual orientation, gender or disability should be treated equally.

Today we said our final goodbye to our friend and former GM Sandy Gourlay... Sandy was Òran Mór's dedicated GM since its inception in 2004, and will be much missed by our staff, colleagues and customers.
A sad day for all at Òran Mór 💛
Following this afternoon’s Scottish Government announcement, Òran Mór will close at 6pm this Friday until Monday 26th October.
We open tomorrow 9am-10pm and on Friday 9am-6pm.
Thank you for your support, particularly over the last few months.
Stay safe,
Team Òran Mór
