We dined at the bar and ordered the nachos and cheese, which were served with sour cream and salsa and were filling enough to be a meal on their own. For my main course, I chose the vegetarian fajitas, which also included a generous amount of sour cream. The cheese board for dessert was a bit disappointing as it only consisted of three small pieces of cheese, assorted crackers, and chutney for £7.95. The total bill for two of us, including 2 glasses of wine, came to a reasonable £55. The waiting staff were exceptional, with a casual and attentive approach. The dress code was smart casual.
The food at this restaurant was absolutely fantastic. Despite a last-minute booking and a phone that was not working, we unfortunately could not get a table. However, the staff were incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to accommodate us. This is a wonderful family-run business and we will definitely be returning in the future. Thank you so much for the great experience.
Stayed in hotel attached breakfast was included in rate. Local produce, freshly cooked to order, good selection of cereals, juices, etc. Recommend the haggis black pudding, very tasty not stodgy was perfectly cooked.
The food was great, the service was excellent, and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely recommend this restaurant.
