Glasgow's Ubiquitous Chip sold to pub chain chiefs Greene King

Glasgow's longest established family-run restaurant has been sold to a pub chain.

The Ubiquitous Chip in Ashton Lane has been snapped up by the Metropolitan Pub Company (MPC). It had been in the hands of the Clydesdale family since it opened in 1971 and is currently managed by Colin Clydesdale along with his wife Carol.

But they decided to sell the family business after meeting with the firm's bosses. The deal with MPC, owned by the UK's biggest pub chain Greene King, also includes the family's other popular west end pubs and restaurants Stravaigin and Hanoi Bike Shop.
