Vegan ingenuity in Glasgow

Times are tough and small business owners are looking for unique and unusual ways to stay afloat.

Hugh of Trusty Buck’s in Glasgow is just one example of this vegan ingenuity.

After being forced to close his location housed inside a pub due to the global crisis, Hugh was desperate to find a way to keep his vegan comfort food business alive.

Hugh got busy organising his festival catering setup so he could run Trusty Buck’s in the garden of his family home. Yes, that’s right. Hugh created a temporary catering kitchen in the garden!

After a lot of back and forth with the council, Trusty Buck’s is all certified and ready to roll. They are now serving delivery and collection.

The menu at Trust Buck’s is intensely delicious looking. Click here to explore the cuisine line up and order.

They are taking orders (live or pre-booked) for delivery around Glasgow’s southside or for collection between 5pm and 10pm between Wednesday and Sunday.

Follow Trusty Buck’s on Instagram for all the latest news and updates.
