Join us for a community meal at The Whitehouse, open to everyone, no booking needed.
It's a chance to sit down together over a homecooked plate of food, meet new people and have a blether, all in a warm, welcoming space that has been in Maryhill for over two centuries!

Beginners are very welcome. Come along, use what you have, and don’t worry about the rest. It really is the best way to improve. Tea and coffee will be on hand to keep things easy and informal.
Gàidhlig a-mhàin / Gaelic only!
About this Venue
The Whitehouse
An 18th century rubble sandstone building and public house which has occupied the site at the top of Maryhill Locks since the completion of the Forth and Clyde canal in 1790.
The White House Inn is one of the oldest surviving buildings in Maryhill and have lain empty for some time.
The signage on the north elevation has been removed revealing the old painted sign with the name Owen Jones who ran the premises from 1911.
