 The Buchanan has been the home of bridge in Glasgow since 1932.
The club is in a 19th century listed building and yet has all the benefits of technology with computer-dealt boards, Bridgemates on all tables, etc. Up to thirty-seven tables in play can be accommodated over the three floors of the building.
