Excellent venue for party. Grazing table and cocktails were great and exactly what we were looking for. Staff couldn’t have been more helpful, planning the evening and throughout the event. All our guests thoroughly enjoyed themselves, thank you

Group went for the Soul Station/Motown Night. Atmosphere was uneasy and very little (if any) Motown was on - much more like a standard wedding playlist from the DJ. Crowd seemed a little underwhelmed.

We popped in for a wee bit lunch after getting off the bus. We arrived at 12.05 and asked for our drinks after 5 minutes waiting. We waited a further 10 minutes before our order was taken. Finally, after half an hour, the waitress told us the chit had been lost in the kitchen!!!!!!! We left, granted we didn't have to pay for the drinks but certainly won't be back in here. Service is so terribly slow, very disappointed in this establishment

We visited on a Sunday morning and were very disappointed. It was freezing inside the building as the fire hadn’t yet been lit. Everyone inside had their coats and jackets on. They did try to get the fire lit, which meant that when the door was opened smoke was let out, leaving a smoky smell. We ordered food and drinks and had a while to wait. Whilst waiting we watched the young lad serving us, put firelighters in the fire and light them. After handling the log burner and fire lighters he then proceeded to pick up our cutlery and set the table. Fill a glass of water for us touching the rim of the class and had not washed his hands. After touching the wood burner, handling firelighters I’d have expected him to wash his hands. He then served our food. The French toast breakfast was very disappointing, the sausage bagel was ok. The decaf tea was good and the coffee fine and a good temperature. Disappointed and won’t return.

Went for brunch! Menu was good and chose breakfast rolls and omelettes between the four of us! Ordered at 11 and drinks took around 20 mins to be served. There were only 2 other tables in at that time and they already had their food/drinks. Food also took a while! Had to wait 20 minutes on soup that was ready in the Bain Marie. Also it was very cold, appreciate the space would be hard to heat but all of our party kept their jackets on.

My husband and I were out in Dunfermline and thought we'd try somewhere different for lunch. On checking the menu I noted there was a small vegan menu which meant I could eat here. I ordered the sweet potato salad £8.95. My husband, who isn't vegan, ordered mushroom and chicken stroganoff. When the meals eventually came out the stroganoff looked really bland and the rice watery. He said it tasted ok but was not worth £9.85. My meal was placed in front of me with 2 fried eggs on the plate beside some mushy, sloppy sweet potato. I told the waitress that my meal was incorrect and she said "this is the sweet potato salad". I pointed out there were eggs on the plate and she looked confused. I had to explain that eggs are not vegan (and were also not listed as being part of the meal). She took the plate away and came back a while later with more sweet potato slop that had some cranberries added and some spinach. The amount of food on the plate was pitiful. It was more like a tapas amount. I ate it as I thought it might taste better than it looked. It was bland and completely over cooked slop. The waitress came no where near us again so I had no opportunity to send the food back. When I went to pay the man at the till asked how the food was. He was shocked when I told him it was awful. In fairness to him he removed my meal from the bill and apologised which was appreciated. The chef clearly needs a lesson in what vegan food is and how to cook it properly. He also needs to learn that vegan portions need to be a lot bigger than what is currently being dished up. I won't be retuning here again.

Came here with 6 other friends for some drinks, 47 minutes after arriving we received our drinks. I have never experienced service so slow given that it wasn’t that busy. We were told when we arrived that there was only one member of staff on the bar so it might be a little wait for the drinks but we didn’t realise it would be this long! The drinks were brought out two at a time instead of all together despite ordering them at the same time. We had to wait 15 minutes in between for the drinks to come out. They forgot about one of our drinks that we ordered and instead of being apologetic the waiter was very rude and made out that it was our fault. Very disappointing as it has potential to be a good spot especially with the live music aspect.

Although I had passed this place on numerous occasions, I had never been in. After picking up a family member from the Bus Station, which is close by, we decided to try the converted Fire Station. There is a good selection on the menu on offer and our chosen dishes were excellent. The cakes are more than amazing. I'd recommend here for lunch or cake/coffee, as this is above your average eatery.

I finally got to visit this year with friends and also with family. Everything I have tried has been nice and filling.

We popped in here whilst we were in town, never having been before. From the get go though, it wasn’t great. We waited a while to be seated, as there seemed to be only one member of waiting staff. There were plenty of tables free, and the place wasn’t anywhere near busy. Eventually we were seated, and we assumed that it was table service but after a 25 minute wait, we started to think otherwise. My husband decided to approach the counter, where a middle aged man who was working was pretty curt; my husband was told to wait for the server at our table. We only ordered coffee and scones, but after around 30 minutes of waiting we decided enough was enough and we didn’t want to wait any longer, so asked for the food to go. The girl serving us was polite and didn’t see any problem with it but again the man behind the counter seemed to take it badly and seemed to huff when he was told we needed to leave. During our wait for the food to arrive, an elderly gentleman walked in, and was spoken to in an incredibly rude way by, yet again, the man serving. The elderly man only wanted to join his wife at the table she already occupied, but he could hardly get the sentence out because the guy behind the counter kept barking at him “give us a moment” over and over. I felt pretty bad for the older guy, that’s no way to speak to customers. We won’t be back. The place doesn’t have a friendly atmosphere, and apart from the girl serving, the staff seemed rude to say the least. The prices aren’t the cheapest, but that would be over looked if the service was substantially better. At the rate they are now, I’m surprised they’re still operating.

We stopped here for lunch while shopping next door. The building is great looking, and the staff are friendly. But the food took WAY too long to come, about 45mins for a salad and an omelette when the restaurant was pretty quiet. If you're going for a cake and coffee, probably be fine, but expect a long wait if you're ordering off the menu. We won't be back.

However by 8:40 it still hadn’t started and when we asked at the bar why, we were told it was from 9-11. So why does the website and Instagram say 8-10? Had to leave at 9 without hearing any music.

Disappointed on last trip here for lunch. Had been several times before and looked forward to the BLT bagel which had always been great. The menu has changed and this was no longer available and more simple dishes in its place, which my partner and I felt we could have easily made at home anyway. We waited a while to place our order but it seemed staff were not aware we were waiting despite us attempting to catch their eye several times. Eventually I went up to front desk to place our order. We asked for soup and sandwiches and wanted them at the same time, however never received our soup despite a long wait. Our dishes weren't collected for a long time either and we were waiting to place an order for some coffee and cake. When we eventually got the staffs attention we explained we did not receive the soup but we're going to just have cake instead, but wanted to make them aware. The staff member apologised, and another member of staff came over to apologise and told us it was probably for the best as the soup was horrible on this particular day. Staff appeared harassed and no real organisation. Preferred older menu and there was not as much of a selection of cakes on this visit either. I now feel I no rush to return where as this was a cafe I previously would have recommended..

I visited the Fire Station today for lunch with a friend and was very disappointed with the menu and quality of dishes. The menu used to be fantastic and the dishes delicious however it was such a let down today. The sandwich that I ordered was very expensive for what it was and I was shocked at the low quality of produce. I’m not sure how a ham, cheese and chutney sandwich could go so wrongly but the bread could only be described as similar to a cheap, Tesco value style loaf and the cheese was like plastic/rubber. The 4 crisps on the plate were an embarrassment and the “side salad” was limp and inedible. This used to be my venue of choice and I’m sad to say I won’t be returning again. It’s a real shame for Dunfermline that this amazing place has now gone very downhill.

The Old Fire Station has been reopened as an art gallery/studio and restaurant and has recently updated its facilities. Gone are the echos which used to reverberate around - especially when young people were around. Sound baffles in the ceiling have made it a much more intimate experience. The menu offers a range of popular, local offerings and sits easily between breakfast and lunch. The cakes are excellent too and the staff friendly and helpful. There is a constant turnover of artwork produced on site and set up around the walls. On these cold days, sit near the wood burning stove to compete your experience of good, cosy refreshment

Sorry in advance......I had high expectations as the cafe came highly recommended to me. I visited today with some friends. The setting is very nice and cosy despite the size and space. The staff were friendly enough and the place was busy. We ordered drinks and food. The drinks arrived after 10 minutes....15 minutes later....3/5 plates of food arrived....5 minutes later 2/5 plates of food arrived. Sad to say the food was not great. ‘American Pancakes’....one giant solid/rubber pancake with what I assume are defrosted frozen berries. ‘Bruschetta’....glorified cheese on toast. ‘BLT’....lovely vibrant plate of food and thankfully, enjoyed. ‘Stew’....enjoyed but in desperate need of some green! A very mixed batch of food.

Waited 15 minutes to be served and finally only served because I beckoned someone over! Ordered a flat white which I could not even drink - it was practically black and extremely strong and bitter. Waitress questioned my complaint - very unprofessional. My replacement Americano was not much better but with a jug of hot water and a lot of cold milk it was just about palatable! Will not be going back!

Popped in for a drink. Busy enough but a wee bit muted. They had some live music on. Decent acoustic blues player with a blues harp accompaniment. Pretty good and not too intrusive.

A really interesting venue, in my opinion the cakes are the best in Dunfermline. I also enjoy viewing the artists displays. A lovely place to meet and chat to friends. Also the staff are friendly and helpful. A good place for families to relax and enjoy. There is also evening entertainment on the weekend.

Extremely nice place to sit and relax, a little different from the norm but the food was awesome. Great staff who really were nice to speak to and assisted when and where needed without any hesitation.

Nice, cosy and friendly atmosphere. There is a quirky vibe within a gallery setting. The food is simple but has excellent quality. Highly recommend the weekend brunch menu.

Había comido aquí antes y realmente disfrutamos de la fuente compartida. Fuimos allí recientemente y la misma fuente compartir había subido de precio y sólo tenían unos dos tercios de los artículos que tenía anteriormente. Aceitunas, pimientos relleno no, verdes o tomates secados al sol y menos pan. Si eso es la nueva fuente de compartir, no es relación calidad-precio y no volveré. Es una pena, porque de lo contrario es un lugar encantador.

Lovely surroundings, friendly staff, reasonably priced drinks but the live group took forever tuning up and we had to leave before they started. We didn't eat but saw other tables having food and it looked amazing.

Primera visita para algo tarde y beber. Ambiente encantador con galería y estar junto a la ventana. Menú de comida sencilla. No hay menú de bebidas alcohólicas en la mesa. Disfrutamos de un elemento de desayuno para el almuerzo. Personal joven, amable. Pero debería haber sido informado que cerca en horarios específicos.

Reservar una mesa y fuimos para un brunch de fin de semana en la estación de bomberos creativo. El menú es amplio y muy interesante, incluyendo sándwiches, huevos, sopas y tartas recién horneados, bollos, etc. . Pedimos huevos benedictinos, panqueques americanos con bacón grasiento, croquetas de patata con huevos y el plato de niños con sandwich de jamón. Excelente servicio y deliciosas tartas y bollos. Muy recomendable para desayuno almuerzo en Dunfermline. La cafetería está situada en una galería de arte y la sirve vino, cerveza y cócteles. Reservar una mesa si tienes un grupo grande ya que muy concurrido, especialmente durante el fin de semana servicio de brunch.

Yo estaba muy impresionado por el fuego de la estación creativa. En primer lugar, el edificio en sí conserva muchas de las características de la estación de bomberos y de la cantidad de luz que entra hizo un almuerzo es un sitio muy agradable. La comida era excelente y sin duda lo recomiendo el risotto de espárragos y guisantes que sabían deliciosamente fresco. Por último, recibimos un buen servicio desde el principio hasta el final de nuestra visita a pesar de estar lleno y en la lenta de almuerzo. Una gran adición a Dunfermline y totalmente recomendado.

Un almuerzo muy agradable, la comida era excelente, con un entorno agradable. Éramos cinco adultos y un bebé de un año, un variado menú con comida deliciosa. Deliciosa sopa y bruschetta y houmus muy sabroso, adultos y bebés aclaró los platos. Sillas para bebés que se limpiaban con un desinfectante, limpie antes de usar disponible bien hecho, esperamos volver de nuevo cuando esté en la zona.

Vine aquí por primera vez con amigos y me quedé agradablemente sorprendido por su amplio menú. Desayuno comida abarca desde sándwiches hasta e incluso algunas ligeras. Fui por los huevos que eran increíbles, Royale mientras mis amigos optaron por el panqueque (pancake de tamaño muy generoso) y un bocadillo que ambos dijeron también estaban muy sabrosos. Luego tuvimos la frambuesa y rebanadas de torta de semillas de amapola, también muy bueno.

Luminoso y limpio, moderno, con cuadros, pequeño interior -- deben perder un montón de negocios. Comidas un poco impredecible pensé - - - - - - algunos algunos no es así. Debe ser un buen lugar de reunión para la merienda, etc. Personal de camarera simpática. Sin llamar, pero otros locales en la zona quizás preferible.

I met a friend for lunch in here one day. Nice, open space but also cosy with a log fire. Very friendly staff and have recently updated the menu so there is now a selection of vegetarian dishes available. Also great cake and reasonable prices

We went here for a cup of tea as it is dog friendly. That was a big plus. However you can only seem to order via the screen opposite the counter and this was not easy with lots of people milling around. We found seats towards the back and the lighting was poor which was probably just as well as it felt slightly grubby. My husband wanted to use the toilet and said it was filthy and certainly the queue of people waiting to use the one toilet would not have allowed a clean. Overall not somewhere I would return to as a parent of a student.

Visited this lunchtime with service users. Food was ok although 2 of the baked potatoes were very small with hardly any filling, the 3 filled rolls all good, no complaints. The issue arose when it came to paying, quite disorganised. The gentleman became visibly stressed, struggled to find the price of most items. We needed individual receipts + as the till didn't print these, they needed to be hand written, he didn't know what to do + when he asked for help he was told "he's busy" + "I've not a clue,sorry", there was a woman standing close by who looked like she could've helped but didn't. I made eye contact a couple of times but she just let him muddle on through. I ended up saying to him to forget about the receipts and I would do them myself on return to work. He was so anxious, really felt for him. He needed support + didn't get any. Wasn't a pleasant experience. I've worked with adults with additional support needs for nearly 20 years + have an autistic stepson. I'm all for places like Sensoriale but please support the staff to be the best that they can be.

Excellent. I wasn't expecting much considering it's a supermarket cafe but my breakfast was perfectly cooked. The hashbrowns and tastie scone where a real highlight. I got the big breakfast and a latte. The cost came to just under £12. Not bad compared to the other cafés in Dunfermline. Ladies who are serving are friendly, polite and very accommodating. The coffee is real, vibe in so comfy and cosy. You forget you are in the middle of the shop. I went during the summer holidays, so the were lot's of lovely families. Only con. The is only two people working in quite a large cafe. The serve is quick still. But they really should have more help. It's within walking distance of the high street and bus station. Overall very please. Will be back very soon.
