ONE of Glasgow’s oldest family-run restaurants has called in liquidators.
Cafe Gandolfi on Albion Street has built a glowing reputation for its old-fashioned look and Scottish produce since opening in the Merchant City in 1979.
The venue has been serving customers for almost five decades and has previously counted Scottish stars including Billy Connolly, Annie Lennox, and Paolo Nutini among its visitors.
Public records show that a petition to wind up the business was presented to Glasgow Sheriff Court on April 13, 2026.
That was followed by the appointment of Colin Murdoch of Murray Stewart Fraser Limited as liquidator on July 6, 2026.
Companies House records also show the business address was changed from 64 Albion Street, Glasgow, G1 1NY, to 2.2, 2 Lyle Buildings, Lochwinnoch Road, Kilmacolm, PA13 4LE, on May 13, 2026.
The restaurant has long been a popular Merchant City spot and is known for its cosy bistro style interior and menu built around Scottish produce.
No official statement has yet been issued by Cafe Gandolfi.
