Hard to imagine but Glasgow hasn't had a dedicated burger joint which serves up to vegans of the city... until now.

The renowned Mad Chef Danny McLaren (of Bloc fame) has just made the day of many a foodie in this area by announcing his Durty Vegan Burger Club is taking over the former site of the Cran in Finnieston.

After more than a year of planning, he revealed a few details on social media tonight, and hinted lots is in store when his much-anticipated launch takes place.

He said: "So finally the waiting is over, I'm absolutely overwhelmed with this news, and cannot explain how long i have been waiting for something like this.

"We will be launching in three weeks time all details and dates will follow."

And in even better news, Danny confirmed he'll be doing some good deeds when his business gets its permanent home.

He added: "I have put everything on the line and chased a dream that was started in 2017, now we have a shot at taking this brand to the next level, while achieving what we set out to do, the goal was always to be Glasgow's first vegan burger restaurant and takeaway that helped support social enterprises, that goal has never left my sight.

"Expect me in my element creating some of the most downright durty vegan wares a human could imagine, while bringing back the true mad chef theatre, I will also be cultivating & programming events and happenings that will bring people from all walks of life together, and help grow & support others, this is the platform I have been searching for its now time to show Glasgow who we really are."

The new restaurant will open in evenings from 5pm onwards.
