20 of different generations went for 80th Birthday Party dinner. Full choice of menu offered. Food was of the highest standard throughout. Service pleasant, efficient and helpful. Nothing was too much trouble from booking to departure. All want to repeat the Creel experience.

What a superb wee restaurant! We came in without booking for lunch and they quickly found us a nice table, and then nothing was too much trouble for them. The food was outstanding - fresh and really tasty, and it was clear they took pride in what they served and how they served it. Highly recommended.

Lovely little gem in Dunbar, I loved the atmosphere with dim lighting and sea themed deco. The food was delicious and the staff very friendly. I had the mushroom paté for starters and hake for main and my partner had the duck for starters and steak for main. We both loved the food and I hope to go back again!

Fabulous food and we are happy to rate The Creel highly. We both had fish which was beautifully cooked, beautifully presented and the vegetables were perfect. In the three weeks we’ve been in the UK we believe that this was the best meal we’ve had.

Recently enjoyed a beautiful meal in the Creel on a Thursday evening, with friends. The duck and fig starter was amazing; full of a variety of flavours. The hake was lovely and beautifully cooked. The lemon drizzle was a tad on the dry side but nicely lemony with gorgeous raspberry ice cream to accompany it. No decaff coffee sadly but we polished off a very nice white wine. Probably my favourite place to eat!!

Faultless. I had the sardines which were beautifully seasoned and turned a simple dish into a delicacy. My husband enjoyed the chicken liver pate with crostini. Then I ordered perfectly cooked pink steak slices over a delicious green salad, and my husband devoured a massive bowl of fresh mussels in a creamy mariniere sauce. Both dishes were served with crispy triple fried chips, and home-made bread. We washed this delightful food down with a bottle of perfectly chilled Laurent Perrier pink champagne. To follow my husband had his favourite "Findlay Family" chocolate mousse, which has been on their family-owned restaurants' menus since 1985, with a stunning late harvest Voigner, and I had a tasty selection of Mellis cheeses. The restaurant is owned by Jack Findlay, who was attentive and charming.

We came across this beautiful restaurant while at an overnight stay in Dunbar. We were looking for a nice place for dinner and after reading previous reviews, we were walking past and just popped in ( it was not properly open yet at that time) and managed to secure the last available table for the evening. We had celebrated our wedding anniversary at a very expensive fine dining restaurant in Edinburgh the previous night which left us quite disappointed. We wish we had celebrated our anniversary at the The Creel instead! The Maitre d' was very welcoming and made us feel very comfortable. He was very helpful guiding us through the wine list which was comprehensive and had a good range of prices including some wines in the upper price range. My starter of whipped goats cheese chicory, poached pears and walnuts was delicious, my husband had local crab, cucumber gazpacho with chilli oil and lime, which was also delicious. Mains, I had French trimmed chicken,and the best dauphinoise potatoes I have EVER had. Hubby had Plaice, with cockle bouillabaisse, he said it was absolutely delicious! I had pannacotta to finish and hubby had mousse au chocolat. Overall the meal was exceptional, atmosphere warm and welcoming, staff attentive without being intrusive and great music in the background at just the right volume. We would travel again JUST to eat here. Mohrag & Uli Fischer

The Creel has a lovely dining room, and you can see the chefs at work from many of the tables. The service is exemplary, perhaps a touch quick and pervasive. We chose the lunch special - cod - it was delicious. Wine mark-ups are eye-watering. Well worth not going into Edinburgh though

Located near the Dunbar Marina, we had a great time! We should underline the kindness of the waiter, who among other things speaks a few words of Italian because he told us he studied it at school. Both the starter based on chicken liver pâté and the soup of the day taken by my mother were very good, I appreciated the Shetland mussels (which we shared) and, for dessert, the homemade chocolate ice cream was excellent ( and you can hear it!). Fair price for the quantity and quality of each course. I would stay here again!

Excellent meal and highly recommended to those that enjoy quality food. We ate at lunch, having a starter and main. They deviated from the menu for us, having the main mussel course as a sharing starter. Quality mussels and cooked to perfection, great cream and thyme sauce to make this a moreish dish. We both chose the mains special, Grilled Cod with lemon butter and seasonal vegetables. Really nice thick cut of Cod, again, cooked spot on. Compliments to the chef. The maitre d was attentive and his personality made the experience even more enjoyable. We were first through the door for lunch, by the time we left, the place was nearly full. Quality food at a reasonable price

Since the pandemic, this place seems to found it's footing. We took visitors from the States looking for seafood. The dining room is very small and intimate. The kitchen is pretty open to the diners and it was fun to watch all the activity. The service was terrific. But it is the food that will keep us coming back. Everything was amazing. The menu changes with the availability of fresh seafood and produce. The prawns, the mussels, even the chicken dish were all excellent. But the star was the cucumber gazpacho with shredded crab. WOW!

Had a great lunch here, Charcuterie platter was generous and well priced, additions of olives and sundried tomatoes were well appreciated. Venison cottage pie was decadent and rich, topped with a ‘cheesey chivey’ baked mash disc topping, accompanied by a small bundle of buttered steamed vegetables. A modest portion however I wouldn’t have managed anymore despite how delicious it was. All the ice cream is homemade, their tablet ice cream is something that would put Lucas in Musselburgh to shame. They also make their own sourdough bread in house, I had a cheddar flavoured loaf. It was still warm to the touch! Must’ve been freshly baked

The look of the restaurant caught our eyes upon visiting this cute little town so we decided to come in for dinner. And oh boy… I think the food was absolutely the most disappointing part of this whole experience. We have ordered a crab starter with lemon and chili, which was tasting only chili. There was no room for any crab or any flavor but spicy. I really enjoy a spicy dish (i like to eat raw chili too), but this dish lacked any other taste. For mains we have ordered a pork fillet and a smoked fish dish. The pork fillet was a fancier sunday roast that lacked any salt basically. On the other hand the smoked fish with leek had all the salt in the world. I needed to drink water after every bite. I think the only item on our table that was actually great was the home made bread. I am saad to say it was a very very disappointing experience. We have been to this place with our baby, which was not a great idea I admit, however the staff turned very cold, once our little one started crying. We tried to wrap it up super quickly. By the end we felt they also rushed us out to the extent that they forgot to give us our coats back. So I needed to quickly remind them. Overall I would not recommend this place, tries to be more than what it is.

Food was okay. No cocktail or mocktail menu at the time of visit. But considering the price tag and the type of restaurant they branded themselves, my expectations were slightly higher. The roast tweed valley beef sirloin was very chewy and not properly seasoned. I prefer the taste came from the cooking (original creative work of the chef) and not from the additional pepper that they offered after leaving the kitchen. I also noticed that the portion of the same dish was different from that serving another table. It seemed the kitchen loosely controlled the quality and presentation of their dishes.

Excellent food off the main menu particularly the sea trout, the special of monkfish wrapped with Parma ham was a tad dry though. We tried most of the starters and the monkfish was our favourite. Service was great too and fairly fast, helped by there only being a couple tables (would definitely book). The dining room was historic and charming apart from the jug to catch a leak and the two wine fridges and chargers with bright lights which made it feel a bit cramped. Would recommend highly in the area.

Wonderful food and great service. We had the lunch menu for £20pp and wouldn't hesitate to go again. It was a little loud at times but otherwise great atmosphere too

Visited Aunty D’s Cafe at Winterfield Golf Club yesterday during a family trip for the October week. We were so impressed with the service and food that we visited twice in the one day, before and after the golf round! 😅 The staff, Doreen, Emma and Steph were so welcoming and accommodating - Nothing was ever too much trouble. We were a group of 6, mixed ages and dietary needs + our family dog and we honestly had such a great day with amazing food and drink. Would highly recommend and will definitely be back when we are in the area next.

Went here today for a birthday meal What a total and utter disappointment the quality of the food was very poor. I would have rated it no stars but had to give at least one to continue with the review. The meal I ordered was billed as a triple steak burger, OMG it was awful, when it was served to me the burger was bone dry and very small, over cooked and totally tasteless. There was no burger sauce, (what we were offered was a bottle of ketchup and seriously watered down mayo) there was no onion or cheese only a little piece of stale lettuce and one slice of very thin tomato in the very dry bun. It was listed as being served with rustic chips but I actual found they were nothing more than a handful of frozen skinny fries from a bag. I was charged almost £17 for this which is an absolute disgrace. I've had far better any tastier burgers from McDonald's for a third of the price. My partner had what was billed as peppered chicken which was very poor, served in a skillet which was no deeper than a saucer and it was served without rice which was listed on the menu. The manager came over before it was served and gave her a spoon and we were wondering why you would need a spoon to eat the meal! Then It became apparent when it was served, hardly any chicken and a few bits of pepper and onion and was swimming in some kind of peppered sauce, hence the spoon. This was also priced around £16/17, again ridiculously over priced for what was actually offered. We checked out the menu online before booking a table but when we arrived we were given a totally different menu from what was online. Then to top it all we paid cash and after some time we had to ask for our change from the bill (over £5). When the ki Manager came over he then said "folk normally say just to keep the change " we were Shocked and utterly embarrassed by this comment. What an absolute rip off this place is and we certainly won't be back .
