There was only one other couple dining and it was not until after we had ordered that I overheard them complaining about how bland and tasteless that their food had been.The bar restaurant was in desperate need of vacuuming with crumbs all over the carpet, including under our table and croutons on the windowsill beside us.When I mentioned the filth to the waitress on my way out she did not apologize but stated " I know, we are not allowed to vacuum when there are any customers in the restaurant.The two young waitresses talked together and were on the phone most of the time, did not offer to refill our water and one coughed frequently without covering her mouth. I hoped fervently that the kitchen was cleaner than the restaurant.I ordered a salad Nicoise which was passable though I had not recalled that this salad apparently contains no lettuce or leafy greens of any sort.My husband ordered a burger and fries and the most positive thing I can say about this overpriced bar meal in dirty surroundings is that we did not get sick!Ruth SOttawa

We stopped at this restaurant for one night during a weekend motorcycle trip. It was a recommended stop on "The Highland Loop" website. read more We stopped at this restaurant for one night during a weekend motorcycle trip. It was a recommended stop on "The Highland Loop" website.
