For those of us who can remember the 90s, there are some long lost Glasgow activities that the younger ones missed out on - and might not even believe they ever existed.

From dining on crocodile to shooting aliens, there's a lot of things we could do in 90s Glasgow that have since disappeared.

If you've been telling younger generations about the Jolly Giant, or birthday parties at Little Marcos, and want to prove a point - we've got the list for you.

We've put together some of Glasgow's sorely missed spots from the 90s - that we're still talking about to this day.

If we missed out one of your favourite long gone activities, let us know.

The pinnacle of toy warehouses, nothing put a smile on kids faces like a trip to The Jolly Giant.

Long before Toys ‘R’ Us, Glasgow parent’s would treat well behaved children with a treat from Jolly Giant - with stores in Rutherglen and Jordanhill.

Opening in 1980, the company collapsed after two decades of service.

Many will remember the huge giant figure who would lean forward when you walked in the door, or the television adverts that saw the giant wielding a big club ready to ‘smash’ toy prices.

First opening in 1946, Butlin’s Ayr became a popular spot for holiday makers from across the country - and closer to home.

Offering visitors swimming pools, boating, tennis courts, sports day activities, amusements, a miniature railway and basically everything else you could ever want.

In 1987, it was renamed Wonderwest World - though it's always been Ayr Butlin's to locals. By 1999, it had become part of Haven Holidays.

After 19 years as Merchant City’s most adventurous restaurant, Khublai Khans closed for good in 2017.

In its first few years in the late 90s, the restaurant was hugely popular for its ‘safari’ offerings such as zebra, kangaroo and crocodile.

Europe’s largest leisure centre had 40 years of success, though dwindling visitor numbers and declining funding spelled the beginning of the end.

It once housed everything from gymnastic performances to dog shows, with families from across the country flocking to the centre - averaging at a million visitors in the early 80s.

At the time of opening visitors were charged just 25p to get through the doors, and it became the second most popular tourist attraction in Scotland - beaten out only by Edinburgh Castle.

Housed in Templeton Business Centre, Little Marco’s was the place to be for any birthday party.

It was heaven for a child, and a nightmare for parents. With a huge soft-play area, go-karts, and arcade machines - Marcos was endless fun.

Owned by the DeMarco family, who ran children’s play areas across the central belt, the spot closed for good in 2008.

After the success of the Alien films, the Arches opened a ‘total reality’ experience where visitors had the opportunity to face off against aliens.

Alien Wars offered smoke filled dark rooms filled with terrifying creatures, one of the more peculiar experiences to be had in the Arches. First opening in 1994, people queued for hours to get into the annual event - which first happened in Glasgow before touring the UK.

While some would be terrified making their way through the creepy rooms, organisers had to add security after youths attempted to take on the aliens in hand to hand combat.

This Sauchiehall Street eatery was usually filled to the brim, mostly with teenagers heading for dinner and a movie - with the Cineworld just a stones throw away.

After the owner retired in 2014, the restaurant closed for good after serving Glasgow since 1966.

A feature of many childhoods of Glaswegians, the popular theme park closed in 2010.

First opening in 1995, the park was built on the grounds of a 19th century country house. During its time, financial issues and controversy plagued Loudoun Castle - trading hands many times over a few years.

Some will remember the Barnstormer, a 140-foot-tall drop tower, or the Plough - the largest Chair-O-Plane ride in the world.

What Every Woman Wants was founded in Glasgow in 1971, before becoming a nationwide chain.

It wasn’t a day shopping in Glasgow without a stop at the retailer, and while the clothes definitely weren’t built to last - your mum loved it.

After becoming more successful, the brand became What Everyone Wants - selling Hi-Fi systems and something for, well, everyone.
