Access - Entrance to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in Glasgow
There is a small wheelchair accessible lift just to the LEFT of the steps leading up to the main entrance (the entrance facing Argyle Street). The lift leads to both the Main/Ground Floor and to the Lower Ground floor too.
There is also a step-free accessible entrance at the rear entrance (the entrance beside the car park). This leads to the Lower Ground floor (the internal wheelchair accessible lifts can then be used to reach the Ground & Upper Floors).
Admission to the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum is free of charge.
BUT.
The museum is actually run by a charity – which relies on the continued generous support of the many friends, donors and volunteers who enable them to care for the museum collections, offer visitors an inspirational experience and provide exceptional education services for thousands of people each year.
So, when you see a “donation” box during your visit, please make a donation. You can also donate online.

Accessible Cafe/Restaurant at the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum in Glasgow
There are two places to eat & drink in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery & Museum. And both are wheelchair accessible:
The museum cafe serves drinks & snacks (and coffee of course), and is ideal for grabbing a quick bite. Normally, there is no table service here. However, staff will be very happy to bring food/drinks over to a wheelchair user’s table.
For something a bit more substantial to eat, and to enjoy a much quieter atmosphere, head down to the restaurant on the Lower Ground floor. Table service is available here.
