UPDATE 2023

The interior of the Vale was lost in its conversion to a temporary home for the Queen Street Station Travel Centre, while the station was redeveloped. The premises have now re-opened as a cafe and event space.

The former description is shown below.


The former island bar interior was totally refitted in the late 1930s the architect being Mr J W Weddell of Weddell & Thompson, 216 Bath Street, Glasgow and many of the fittings remain in the ground floor public bar and what was the first floor cocktail bar, now mainly used as a function room but is also open on Friday and Saturday nights.

The servery is now on the left hand side – the bar counter has a French walnut front but the original Formica top has been replaced by a wooden one. The gantry is mainly the 1930s one and could be the fixed seating. A staircase on the right leads upstairs to what was the Cocktail Bar and which still retains the 1930s counter but it is painted in various colours; the gantry looks modern. There have been changes on the right where a raised area has been created to add a ladies toilet.
