About Rufus T Firefly
Rufus T Firefly is a rock bar at 207 Hope St in Glasgow, with a cocktail menu devoted entirely to White Russians and a deal on a choice of them. Beer on tap and spirits sit alongside the cocktails. Rock and metal play through the bar, with alternative and rock mixes, and live music acts perform on a regular basis. Seating includes sofas, booths and leather seats. Customers can play a PlayStation 1 while films run on screen. An upstairs room can be booked for private functions, which gives groups a space of their own.

Customer Review Summary
Reviewers come mainly for the White Russian cocktails, with one noting a whole menu devoted to them and another mentioning a deal on a choice of varieties. Close behind is the music, described as great for rock and metal fans and "always an awesome soundtrack." Beer on tap and a pool table come up several times, and one reviewer praises fast service and down to earth staff and customers. Others describe a cozy, comfortable setting with sofas, a PlayStation 1 for customers and films playing throughout. The rooftop smoking terrace gets a mention, though one reviewer notes the beer garden is really an upstairs patio, which they still found nae bad. One reviewer who hired the upstairs room for a private function singled out the quiet, with carpets, booths, leather seats and no music, making conversation easy. The one lukewarm review calls it a decent pub for rockers with good music and a decent atmosphere.

“Drinks are great, great choice of cocktails, particularly the white russian varieties with the usual other choices of beer and spirits etc available too. Great music for alternatives, metal, rock etc. smoking roof terrace but two floor down to the bar. Pool table available and seating was easy enough to get. Good vibe x”
