Look inside Blue Lagoon's newest Glasgow restaurant with life-size fishing boat

One of Glasgow's Blue Lagoon fish and chip shops now has a restaurant - where diners can sit inside a life-sized fishing boat.

The fast food joint in Gordon Street, next to Glasgow Central Station has undergone an extension.

Once purely a takeaway, the outfit now boats a 70-seater restaurant.

And what caught our eye was the unique way punters can tuck into their suppers, pies and pizzas.

A 'realistic', life-sized fishing boat sits in the centre of the tropical-themed eatery where customers can sit and enjoy their grub.

Images shared with Glasgow Live show the vessel in all its glory, with nautical themed booths inside.

Anchors hang from the ceiling of the restaurant while the walls are adorned with neon lighting and tiles that mimic fish scales.

Blue Lagoon chiefs also revealed that those who work for Network Rail and ScotRail will be eligible for a 10 per cent discount.

Meanwhile, the extension opening has resulted in 20 job vacancies.

A Blue Lagoon spokesman told Glasgow Live: "We have recently done a full revamp of our long-standing Blue Lagoon branch in Glasgow, 69 Gordon Street.

"We have upsized into our adjacent unit, 65 Gordon Street, to enhance our square footage.

"This enabled us to create a 70-seater restaurant as well as retaining the original take away area.

"We have incorporated our new "Blue Lagoon" tropical-themed decoration to the branch.

"This includes a realistic, life-sized fishing boat which our customers can sit in while enjoying their meal.

"We hope that the project will be viewed as a welcome addition to the Gordon Street, Central Station area."

He added: "We will be offering 10 per cent discount to all Network Rail and ScotRail staff.

"We will also be looking to hire an additional 20 members of staff for the new restaurant service.

"We are now fully open to the public."
