The Corinthian Club

What The Corinthian Club does

The Corinthian Club is a five-floor heritage hospitality venue located at 191 Ingram Street in Glasgow's Merchant City, operating from the former Glasgow and Ship Bank building designed by David Hamilton in 1842. The site was converted into judiciary courts in 1920, restored and reopened as The Corinthian in 1999 (revealing the Roman Doric pilastrade, elaborate cornicing, 26-foot glass dome and sculptural plasterwork), and rebranded to its current name after an interior refurbishment by Graven Images in 2010. The venue is wholly owned by Scotsman Group, a Glasgow-based diversified hospitality conglomerate, and operates with a 44-person team.

The product surface spans seven distinct trading spaces: Teller's Bar & Brasserie (flagship restaurant), Charlie Parkers (late-night piano bar), The Club (weekend nightclub until 3am), Fettercairn Terrace (rooftop bar), The Flying Scotsman (flagship wedding/events auditorium), and four private dining/event rooms (Hempel, Mercer, Langley, Lairds) plus Bootleg Bar, Boutique Gin Bar, Nosey Parkers and Private Parkers. Revenue is generated through per-cover food and beverage pricing (market menu £20-£25, Sunday roast from £19.50, cocktails from £6.95, afternoon tea £25-£35), per-head event packages (wedding packages £75-£130pp, hen-party masterclasses £35-£60pp, cocktail masterclasses £27.95-£32.95pp), Christmas/Hogmanay ticketed covers (Christmas Day £94.95 adults, Hogmanay £55pp), and minimum-spend private room hires. Distribution operates through direct walk-ins, own-website reservations, the DesignMyNight booking platform, a dedicated wedding sales team, and a Scotsman Group gift-card storefront.

The venue serves four primary customer segments — weddings (highest per-cover revenue), corporate meetings and events (Red Bull, Hunter Luxury, Persimmon Homes, Scottish Sun, PMP Plc, GTC UK, The Business Journey named in testimonials), private celebrations (hen parties, birthdays, anniversaries), and general dining/nightlife — and is also designated the official Team Scotland House for the Glasgow 2026 Commonwealth Games. Operational technology is conventional (WordPress CMS, Elementor, Google Analytics, Wordfence, Matterport virtual tours); no AI/ML capability is evident. The company is privately held, does not disclose revenue, and has no funding rounds recorded.
