Bridgeview Station Restaurant in Dundee City

Lovely place , good food, attentive service and excellent views out to the silvery Tay.

This place is disgusting I saw a member of staff who was getting a drink previously she was picking her nose the finger she was using she had it in the glass she brought to a customer. also saw rat or mice droppings under table and around cushions place was old outdated and cold. this place is a safety and HELTH HAZARD NEEDS SHUT DOWN AND REPORTED. rats everywhere. Also overpriced .

Lovely views across the river, extensive menu, fabby cakes

First time here using the restaurant. Was met by delightful server and shown to table. Food was ordered a d arrived in timely manner,full breakfast was nice and hot. Really helpful staff again check as well and did we need anything more. Price war reasonable for what we had. I am looking forward to visiting again. Thanks all.

The lovely lady on the counter is amzing. drinks are so good. Very clean and tidy.❤️❤️

We went for a breakfast today after several years of thinking about it and are absolutely gutted we left it so long. Don’t waste your time looking anywhere else, but remember to book a table as it is quite rightly a very busy place. We arrived and were told there was a 10 minute wait by one of the waitresses, taken to our table in about 5 minutes. We waited a bit for our order to be taken but this was understandable as they were very busy. Once the food was ordered our teas and juice were brought quickly and soon followed by our food. The breakfast was great, really good quality sausages, black pudding and bacon (smoked which is unusual but a nice touch), I asked for scrambled egg and was served some of the best scrambled egged I’ve tasted in my 41 years. At £10.85 or so a breakfast this was a bargain. Well done Bridgeview, we will 100% be back and soon.

Magnificent location nice food and very welcoming staff

Such a gem of a restaurant, lovely staff and the breakfast is amazing. Lovely location too. We have been here as a treat every time we travel up to family in the north east of Scotland. Please keep doing what you are doing!!

Always a favourite, food is great here and the staff are lovely

Won't rush back. Food quality poor

It was nice to get out of the cold but service was a bit slow and disjointed, i.e. the hot drinks arrived after we had finished our food!

I attended a function here last night and was blown away by the standard of the food. I am a Coeliac and was very well catered for indeed. The atmosphere was great and the staff were very attentive. Fabulous food, fabulous staff and a fabulous view over the Tay - what more could you wish for!

It's been six years since I visited this restaurant and I still dream about the food I ate there. Wonderful environment, amazing food, and when I think of our trip to Scotland, I dream about this one meal I had at Bridgeview Station. I hope to one day make it back there. Plum ketchup? I don't know what it is but it tastes amazing.

Love this place, is a cosy quirky wee venue. Food is amazing and a wide selection, even serve half portions if you ask... And desserts are devine Service was cherry and prompt. It's a busy place so worth booking in advance as walk-ins may have to wait. Decor is lovely and clean... And on a good day there's a cracking view of the River Tay and the famous Tay Bridge. There is also a converted railway carriage that serves takeaway, which is cooked to order and delicious... And also tables outside of you want to eat al fresco. Plenty of parking too and on the main route from the A90 into the city centre, definitely a place to visit

Very clean and modern building, food not the cheapest but of good quality

Love the platters and the dessert menu.

Easy parking, wonderful views. Attentive, happy staff If weather good, sit outside. Sports field adjacent for dogs or children to run around.

Nice little place. Only had a quick lunch.

Had a superb lunch here for two people. A ploughman’s, a seafood platter ( smoked salmon, mackerel pate, prawns) glass of wine, beer, two coffees and one dessert all for £41. All beautifully presented, good quantity of everything, nice surroundings , nice view so will definitely return.

Excellent food would give service very good would be excellent but only 2 staff on and very busy that's not quite enough The guy behind bar area very busy also They are efficient but a little overwhelmed stretched Will be back Only second visit

Loves this place staff were great and the food excellent, portion size really good as was the price. We pass the place quite often going stop here from now on even for a coffee and great looking cakes. Recommend.

Stopped to use the takeaway... food was horrendous, went directly in the bin... asked to use the toilet as a paying customer and was refused.. dogs running around inside the kitchen. Certainly wouldn't return

Lovely food, reasonably priced, good views, good service. As good as ever, try the venison carpaccio if it’s on, delicious.

Love coming here as a wee treat with my mum. The food is always spot on, it's easily one of the best places for a perfectly made coffee in Dundee and the staff are always so lovely and cheery.

Beautiful wee spot, we stopped for some delicious cold drinks on a warm day. The staff were so lovely and their food looked delicious. We’ll definitely be back for dinner some time. Beautiful views

Went there for a family lunch,most of the tables outside were not cleared,we got the last clean one.had to take our menus ourself.20 mins later my partner went and asked a waitress to come and get our order coz seemed they forgot about us.she said someone will be with us in a moment.15mins later the waiter comes outside and heads to a table that just arrived 5mins before totally ignoring us.we had no other choice just leave and try to find another place to eat.very disappointed with the level of service

Was passing and popped in for breakfast would highly recommend 👌............next time I'm in the area will definitely be back

Lovely staff, very welcoming folk start to finish. Great value for money, generous portions and great range of a menu

Popped in to meet my aunt and we stayed for lunch. This was my first time in Dundee and my aunt asked us to meet in the restaurant. We arrived just before breakfast was finishing and then decided to hang around for lunch. The breakfasts I saw people having looked great with plenty of food per person. We ordered our lunch and I chose the burger which was tasty and full of flavour. My wife had a ham hough sandwich which was very large and she enjoyed it. The slight negatives from our experience were, I asked for more milk for tea and that didn't appear and I had to ask someone again for that. The same thing happened when I asked the same staff member for another Americano coffee and he went off but the coffee never appeared. The noise levels in there are also quite high which is probably due to the design of the restaurant with sounds reverberating. If, like me, sounds aren't an issue, you would enjoy your meals at this restaurant. The food was tasty and plentiful and you can see across the Tay

Lunch does not start until 1200

Lovely friendly attentive staff. Good parking. The food was excellent and good value for money. We had a great table with a nice view.

The fish was very good the baguette was ok but cold and the flat bread was good,overall the meal was over priced

HUGE sandwiches, we all struggled to finish. Very tasty. Won't need to eat for rest of day. Good service, a popular place. Best to book beforehand. Great views. Lots of parking. Takeaway is popular too, very reasonable prices.

Second visit here and was eager to go back as the first visit was great. Unfortunately we won’t return, food was average, service abysmal. The place was near empty and they seemed reluctant to have a table. Drinks arrived after the food, food arrived wrong. Staff in no hurry for anything. Dishes piled high on the bar.

It was a very lovely fish plate

Not dogs allowed, even in the outside terrace :( Only in the neighbour takeaway place.

Another good experience - very nice lunch - well presented food - good service - friendly staff and warm surroundings. Priced reasonably.

Very nice indeed ticks all the boxes for me. Clean nice staff very well cooked food which was also good quality. Had a full breakfast and was able to make changes at no extra charge. Will definitely visit again. Recommend!

Turned up only to be turned away as we did not have a reservation,

Nice location with excellent views

Scone and coffee are excellent.

Lovely location, with plenty outdoor seating, warm welcome unless you’re a cyclist. Told can’t bring or park bikes at the front side of the restuarant. They are not allowed bikes or dogs in the river view frontage, ok to sit at the takeaway seating around the back next to the dual carriageway…. Why? In fairness we’re offered to leave bikes at the rear and sit inside the restuarant. What a missed opportunity and short sited given many cyclists pass this spot. Picked up a takeaway and left cant believe they’ve missed out on our business. Think a review off this policy worthwhile.

This cafe was recommended to me so my wife and I gave it a go I asked the waitress for my porridge to be made with milk they made it with water so i sent back and asked again for my porridge to be made with milk I didn't think this was to much to ask, came back a second time and they had not cooked the porridge oats long enough as they were hard and chewy I sent it back again say this and said I don't want anything else you are not having a third go I found the waitress rude, not friendly and unwelcoming no apology with didn't care attitude they just took the porridge off the bill thinking everything was ok so i went without breakfast i would not recommend for anyone to go there avoid

Just stopped for a coffee, but it was lovely. Great views out over the Tay.

We popped in for a light lunch whilst in the area. From the minute we entered to the minute we left we were impressed. Service was spot-on, the premises are lovely and the ambiance was great. We enjoyed a ploughman's lunch ,a vegetable soup accompanied by a New Yorker sandwich and 2 coffees. All for £26. A great deal!!We are sure to return in the near future. Well done to all concerned.

Had a great sandwich and chips there today. Everything was fresh and very tasty. Chips were absolutely perfect and well seasoned too. Had a diet coke but was flat, maybe draught? Got it replaced without any issue with a can. I think it's my third time here, and always enjoy it. Very reasonable too, well done all.

Very disappointed with the service,very slow and from one particular staff member no eye contact when taking the order. When our order arrived my gf sandwich was the most basic of gluten free bread, tasteless and tiny. When I saw the size of the regular sandwiches I felt cheated. The filling in mine would have filled only half of that one. There is nice gf bread to be had guys. It's a beautiful place and views are amazing but unfortunately I don't think we'll be back

I’ve been here a few times now as is dog friendly .. been very satisfied with location and choice on menu However the girl who was serving in the takeaway sadly has been both abrupt and unhelpful .. her tone was unpleasant when we put an order in .. don’t have that , don’t have that and offering no alternative .. in the wrong trade !

Brilliant place and an excellent breakfast ,staff were above and beyond

A well-designed place....the side room could use some more style. Club Sandwich expected to be a warm version not a cold one and didn't have fries on the side, just potato crisps. It was a warm sunny day and rooms didnt chill with aircon. Overall a fine choice for once in a while rather than regularly.

Great place to restock withcake and a coffee, and recover after a cycle in to wind. Then downwind return home 😀

Worst overcooked breakfast I've ever had Paid over £10 for an overcooked sausage half a mushroom half a tomato overcooked slice of blackpudding half slice of bacon and a spoonful of beans. Also waited over half an hour to be served this slop.

Visited for breakfast, food was very good, and good value. Staff are always lovely, they apologised that they were short staffed when we went in and things may take a little longer. Honestly you would not have noticed, we had our food in good time and the service was spot on 😊

My wife brother and I stopped off here for a bite to eat from the takeaway it was the first time we had ever been here and it is the last, the queue was long it took ages to get served then they mixed people’s orders up putting sat vinegar sauce on different peoples food a total shambles . Then when we finally got our food it was disgusting , a dry roll no marg a minuscule hot dog no onions was never asked thought it came as standard was never offered sauce , then the chips had to wait 15 minutes and they were totally disgusting tasted like the day before reheats or cooked in dirty oil , the lot went in the bin , we won’t be back and I would encourage everyone else to do the same.

Lunch here for the first time. Meal was very good and well proportioned.

Lovely place for lunch. Went with a couple of friends and one of them brought their young daughter. Great kids menu. Food was delicious and service was okay. It was busy, so I understood the wait for food. One of our Coffee's was forgotten but they took it off the bill, which was really good. They also have a take away part out the back which I really like for a quick coffee and breakfast roll :)

Had full breakfast, not keen on tattie scones so asked for it to be replaced with toast which wasn't a problem. Breakfast came with 4 slices of toast along with butter all good here and better than expected and the black coffee I had was really good sugar wasn't required. Sat at table looking out towards the bridge at Fife beyond. Cakes in cake stand looked really good when I went to pay. Other items on the breakfast menu looked good also. Will be back to try them out in the future.

Good food but limited menu for our taste. Abrupt waitress.

Unusual but nice taste of the dishes.

Great food, but the coffee tasted like hot water - absolutely vile

Nice views but after being told the place is dog friendly we were moved from the front of the garden with the nice view to the back by the road because dogs aren’t allowed in the nice bit. No signs anywhere saying no dogs. Food that we had from the takeaway bit is what you’d expect from a nothing special roadside stall. Tasteless greasy frozen chips, decaf cappuccino tasted like hot water, normal cappuccino was slightly better but not by much. Woman who served us was very pleasant and it’s nice to be by the river (even if people with dogs aren’t allowed to see it lol) The prices are fairly cheap so that has to be taken into account with the poor quality. If you’re a coffee lover then don’t buy one here because it will make you sad. If you’re just after a sandwich and a cold drink and you don’t have a dog then it’s probably a really nice place to visit.

Very welcoming staff, sea view. Hot drinks need more improvement.

Good food. Breakfast items from railway carriage are actually nicer.

Didn't eat a proper meal at this place however had coffee and a cake. Stunning little place, lovely view, service was decent and the staff friendly. If I stayed locally, it certainly would be on my radar as a regular spot to grab a lunch/coffee catch up with family and friends.

Lovely full Scottish breakfast, reasonably priced...nice surroundings and service was really good, would recommend

Had a lovely breakfast here. Parking was simple , and the view was lovely. This was our first visit and we will certainly be back. We had a few different meals and everyone enjoyed. Service was prompt and staff were friendly :)

Have been a regular here over the years, but the last three times, the service has been terrible (we hoped we had been unlucky the first twice). The place appears to have too few staff for the numbers coming in (certainly over lunch). Staff appear to be stressed, which comes across in the way they interact with customers. We sat for half an hour before someone took our order, and 2 staff members told us it was someone else's role. When our order came, we reminded the server that one of the party wanted a cup of tea with their lunch. Despite another reminder to a member of staff, the tea didn't come. The food and the view are no longer enough to make me want to go back.

Food was amazing and service was great, definitely be back again soon.

The music was too loud. The food was average. Would no recommend it.

Amazing views, great food - I had the soup of the day which was cauliflower which was amazing which I had with some toasties… perfect. Will love to come again

1st visit...lovely breakfast. Friendly quick service. Great location next to the Tay.

Overpriced . And the waitress was rude

The sandwiches are ENORMOUS!!! This is their mainstay. Yet to try the rest of the menu but looking forward to it. The prices at firs glance are expensive, £8 for a sandwich, but what a sandwich!!! Get a side of parmesan fries for £3.50 and you'll not need feeding for the rest of the day. The staff are some of the friendliest I have ever encountered and are so attentive if you have a question. I'd happily give Bridgeview 10 stars if I could.

Lovely cafe with delicious breakfast

I was in for brunch yesterday with my friend who was parshily blind. When my friend asked the waitresses where the toilet was the waitresses pointed to a wall and said just through there, when I pointed out my friend was blind she carried on pointing to the wall saying in there. After we placed our order the same waitress served up out food, and she left a hot pot of tea on the corner of the table beside my friend which could have easily caused a very bad accident. After we finished what we had order I had to go looking for the waitress to ask for 2 coffees, which she brought to us and only left all the dirty dishes on the table. I eventually had to ask for the table to be cleared as I did not want my friend to knock and thing over. We will not be back to your establishment any time soon

Came in for breakfast this morning with my family, prices expensive for what you're given, a lovely place but 4 pounds for a lorne roll, which only had 1 thin slice on it that covered 2 thirds of the roll which was dry with butter on it, extra item 2 pounds per item l, dad had bacon roll 2 slices of bacon quite fatty on a dry roll he left half, again 4 pounds, coffee was nice 2.50 for a small cup that was finished before roll arrived, not our cup of tea and will be sticking to Invergowrie cafe that is very good.

Food tasty and average priced. We had 2 veggie options a pasta dish and a halloumi burger. Well prepared and nicely cooked. Service was, warm, friendly and professional. Nice view of the Tay. Planning to go back in the summer to sit out in the outdoor area. Highly recommend, remember to book as it's a busy place.

Smart place with lovely wide River views, very bright inside so particularly nice in the middle of winter. Service is efficient and business like. Food okay, pretty basic but well done and satisfying. Only real downside is that it's quite noisy, especially when busy.

Nice place for something to eat

Excellent service and home made fresh food. I'm getting my breakfast every day in their burger train 😍😋 lovely tasty coffee with fantastic view and great price 👌

Great place to grab breakfast! Breakfast is delicious, plentiful and a good price. Staff are always friendly as well and ample parking around. Can be a tad loud inside when it is busy.

Remarkably poor food, ambiance, service…. Evening Christmas menu. Firstly the food: a flat shop bought pastry case with tiny frozen prawns followed by tiny portions of cold turkey on mediocre veg (cold plate) and Tesco own brand stick toffee pub with a micro scoop of ice cream. Next ambiance: cold, bare (no table decoration/crackers, clinical lighting, empty and cold). Service: slow and disinterested - no wonder they are empty! Pricing: the on line menu shows you are overpaying (you can’t get to the £28/£35 they charge for 2/3 courses….) with no extras at all! No coffee and mince pies/ crackers/ bread even. Honestly though it wasn’t the price it was the letdown food - rest of menu: my husband had chewy steak, the fish is coley (!!). We were there on the last Friday before Christmas and it was empty - one other table!speaks volumes. Avoid

Visit here loads as I meet my uncle from the city here. Food yesterday was absolutely amazing so much I had to take half home so did my mum. Staff are amazing really attentive and always very cheerful. Wouldn’t go anywhere else when visiting Dundee. Food home cooked and fresh too x

Nice restaurant with lovely views across the Tay. Food was good, with the burgers being cooked perfectly. Service was very friendly and helpful.

Great breakfast and some of the best scrambled eggs for a long time. I needed some water to clear my windscreen and they were happy to help. The view of the railway viaduct over the Tay is fantastic.

Absolutely lovely wee restaurant, railway themed - but not in a cheesy way. Really yummy food and ever so friendly and helpful staff

Food was fantastic service was very good nice friendly staff,

Their house burger was lovely. A tidy place and the service was good. The view was also good

First time visit to meet a friend for breakfast. Good choices on the menu, reasonable prices. Staff very friendly and attentive without being overly so. Food was hot, tasty and good quality. Would definitely recommend

Lovely views, great staff, will certainly be back.

This is a great place the service is outstanding and the food to match, can't fault it. It's a must on a Saturday morning for one of the best breakfasts in town.

Friendly staff, lovely cakes and coffee

Staff are always friendly so I'm always happy to encourage a family run business you've worked hard for it around the last 20 or so years ... look after yourselves as well and have a good christmas

Had always wanted to eat here, so stopped off unexpectantly. 1st disappointment was my own fault I had assumed you ate in in the blacked out carriage. We arrived at approx 11.15am and as we were led to our table, the waiter said lunch menu dosent start until 12. Which we took to mean it was still breakfast menu- what he meant was we couldn't order a meal until 12. We gould order drinks and a cake ? Anyway as we left I went to buy 2x cans of Fanta @£2.50 each. I was quietly you'd they were cheaper next door in the old carriage take away. Very disappointed.

Good spot for lunch. Acoustics make it a bit noisy and its a bit pricy. But everything was delicious.

The cauliflower dish in a peanut sauce - best ever cauliflower dish I have had from a restaurant. The broccoli and chilli soup was delish 😋 😋 😋 😋 too.

Had a lovely meal with my family, service was excellent, would highly recommend food was perfect

The food quality, service, and view are always exceptional. This restaurant has become a favourite whenever we are in the area

Great food and great views of the river, good atmosphere and service
