Probably the worst meal I've ever been served in a restaurant. Something they called rissoto was still a sticky pasta full of starch with cooked grains of rice mixed with uncooked ones, an unrecognizable green sauce and frozen peas. We went as a group and no one ate the dish after trying it. They gave no alternative but we had to wait a long time for a hamburger or pay for another dish. They promised to compensate with a good dessert that was still a piece of industrial cake...you can get the complaint form, they don't give it to you and they invite you to write to them...not recommended at least for food, music and drinks because we couldn't check. Dire, unprofessional and almost humiliating...I don't recommend it at all.

Our waitress was very friendly and helpful but other than that there is not much positive I can say. I thought the food was okay but certainly overpriced for what we got. The bar service was abysmal. 25 mins from ordering cocktails to receiving them and the place was not busy,! Couldn't have a coffee as they had run out of sugar. There are shops less than one minute away that sells sugar!! Not a great experience.

Truly terrible food at a very premium price. I had the burger and it was like a petrol station burger. Really rubbery, terrible quality of meat. My friends shared a £90 T-Bone steak and said it was really tough, poor quality meat. The staff and ambience were great, but the food was a disgrace.

Came for the easter bunny brunch. Unfortunately it was awful. Pre packaged cold pancakes, pre packages crumpets, cold awful bacon. No nice breads, toast, hot cross buns, square sausage, potato scone, avocados,eggs, pastries, etc, you'd expect. The standard of food was so bad none of us ate more than a bit of each and we had to find somewhere last minute for lunch. Promise of an easter egg for the kids but we had to wait until the end, take a leaflet that the kids got from the bunny (how un exciting for a child) and go to a different cafe on a different street to collect? I've got a broken foot and can't go far so as a result my wee girl didn't get hers. The music was slow and a bit draining, I expected kids music or upbeat music at least? Staff serving were lovely but very clearly embarrassed at the event too. At 10am they didn't even have any apple juice for the kids? Easter bunny was a good laugh but as mentioned gave out a tiny chocolate and a voucher for an egg. The whole thing was a shambles and to be honest an absolute embarrassment for Forgans. The host did accept our complaint on the day and provided a refund. However it still wasn't the experience we were promised for our girls easter. I think next year we will stay in and do it ourselves.

Very chic restaurant with a refined but laid-back vibe. I don't know how they struck the balance so well but they did! We didn't have a reservation but they were able to sit 2 of us with little fuss. Service was friendly and personal. The haggis bon bons were a great intro to haggis. Everything else was tasty but just a bit bland and needed more seasoning (provided on the table). The cocktails were a nice balance of spirit and sweetness, not too strong of either. Overall would recommend!

Chose here to celebrate sons 18th. Table of 5. Waited 50mins for dinner. Chicken dish arrived. Dry chicken breast, dry mash potato (missing pesto) green beans were few and in a drizzle of garlic butter. Dish was so dry I couldn't eat it. I asked waitress where the garlic aoili was which she promptly went to fetch but it sadly never came. Said something about chef having to get some. Dishes taken away. Apology given but bill arrived charging £25 for the poor dish including service charge. I had to ask to have bill rectified. Poor meal here. 😢

Made a huge fuss about whether we had booked or not, despite it being the middle of the afternoon and the place being almost empty, then they stuck us at a table in the middle of the floor.

Lovely food terrible customer service. The night started fine with menu’s given to us and drinks and food order taken and food brought to table. After we had finished our main meal we asked for 5 mins before looking at the dessert menu. We never saw a member of staff after that. Our waitress went on her break and nobody bothered with us after that. No offer of more drinks or the dessert menu’s. So after being totally ignored for 20 odd mins we decided to leave and had to go to the door/till to ask for the bill as we were leaving. The staff were more bothered about clearing a space for the ceilidh than serving paying customers . Would defo put me off going back and there is no excuse for poor customer service and it wasn’t due to lack of staff, just staff doing other things but attend to customers

The waiting staff were extremely friendly and welcoming. It's a pity they have to deal with bad decisions from management in the dining room and/or in the kitchen. We waited about an hour and a half for our food because a large party (looked about 8 people) had arrived before us. I assume that, like us, they had to reserve, which reveals a severe lack of planning on the restaurant management's part. No offer of bread/olives etc while we waited. Free drinks and dessert as well as a 25 percent reduction given as recompense. That's all well and good and to be expected. However, we would much rather have had our meal on time as it was a special occasion. I felt sorry for the lovely waiting staff team members who were the ones on the front line having to fix the mess caused by managerial ineptitude.

Exceptionally average. Was expecting far better. Good Cullen skink. Nothing overly special but a good classic starter. Venison salami was something we'd not had before, enjoyed but bland. "Chicken Supreme" was not chicken Supreme, but instead was a roast dinner. Was nice enough for what it was, but not as advertised. Pear accompaniment was not ripe and had barely any taste. Prawn tagliatelle was far too heavy, tasted and felt like a bucket of cream on the pallet. DEFINITELY NOT WORTH THE PRICETAG. Menu was severely lacking in our opinion with absolutely nothing special or interesting. Disappointed.

We turned up at 8pm without a booking and were so lucky they found a space for us. Food was amazing, I had a flatiron steak and my girlfriend had salmon. Our server Kelsey was outstanding, a wonderful bubbly & friendly personality and super attentive. We upgraded to truffle fries and we both had desert: sticky toffee pudding & apple tart. At 9:30pm a ceilidh band started and we had an amazing evening of live music. Highly recommend a visit to Forgan's when you visit St Andrews.

We visited Forgan’s St Andrews last week for a new year’s treat. We were a party of 8 adults, 2 babies and a 4 year old. We had paid a deposit of £120 to secure our booking beforehand. It took up to 15 minutes for someone to ask if we wanted a drink and on your menu it says to ask your server for cocktails that may be on your menu. I asked for a spicy margarita and was told ‘no chillies so can’t do it’ I asked for a Bloody Mary but was told you don’t have Tabasco. Two very basic ingredients for a kitchen so was a little disappointed in this. We ordered 2 alcoholic cocktails and 2 non alcoholic cocktails due to two members of the party being heavily pregnant. After waiting 40 minutes for drinks to arrive, 1 cocktail came out with two straws and 2 cocktails had one straw. The man seemed very confused and named the cocktail but didn’t specify whether this was alcoholic or not, after asking he nodded and put it down in front of me. I tried the cocktail and could taste alcohol. My two friends who both are pregnant were told that their cocktails were non alcoholic but they in fact had alcohol in them. I had to find someone to complain too. Meanwhile the last cocktail still had not arrived. We waited a significant amount of time for this mistake to be fixed. We still had not ordered our food. When our server came to take the order we were told that we couldn’t get so much of what was on the menu and the server could not actually tell us exactly what we could not order. It was a shambles. So we played it safe and a majority of us ordered a burger, one tagliatelle and one ox cheek dish plus starters. The bread was stale it was inedible. When the main meals eventually came out, a lot of the meals were cold as if they had been sitting for a long duration. My friend who is pregnant had a tagliatelle with prawns and refused to eat it as she tried a prawn and it tasted undercooked. A lot of plates were left untouched which is shocking at the prices of your restaurant. The server came over and did not ask us how are meal was, the plates were just being taken away. One of us said to the server ‘excuse me this tagliatelle is cold and the prawns are not cooked’ and he said ‘aw sorry’ and walked away with the plate? Just not good enough. A child’s dessert was ordered and this was not brought out at all. After complaining to what seemed like a manager, she did discount the meal and apologised. I feel so disheartened that this was always a place where myself and my partner would come every year for Christmas and summer holidays for good food and service. Sad to have had this experience as I do not feel as though I’d return now. Extremely disappointing. It’s a lot of money for poor service and poor food.

Had the worst fish and chips in history, we had my wife’s 50th birthday party there today. Over 1 hour to get drinks to the table. They had no tagaletelli and swapped out with mac and cheese with a few prawns. I sent my fish back as there was zero fish in the batter and the second time it was worse at £19😳 I felt quite angry as Birdseye would have been better. I normally do the British thing and don’t complain but as I was in Scotland and hungry so I made a complaint. Heard multiple tables complaining and to be honest it was full of customers and for two chefs and limited staff if they had been honest and said we have limited staff it’s soup for starter and burgers or fish and chips done well on the menu that would have been great. 😔 not a great start to 2025

Has become much more expensive for small portions, sides arrived 10 mins after mains, table was very wobbly, someone kept fiddling with the music, and we even heard one of the waiting staff tell another “I’m off for two weeks” “where are you going?” “No where - just away from here” - not a positive review from the staff themselves!

Just like the Ferry restaurant. The food was mmmm ok. Fries I thought were a little overcooked, pretty solid, and the possibility of a lost tooth..

A really disappointing visit. We have been coming for many years and were looking forward to a lovely birthday meal. Unfortunately standards have slipped massively. Firstly the communication when booking the meal was very very poor. We made a request regarding bringing a cake etc which was just totally ignored. The menu is extremely limited and not what it used to be, then coupled with the fact that allot of the items were unavailable last night made the options very very narrow. I've never seen a menu without a chicken option.. ever! The menu selection was so poor my 60 year old mother had to choose the burger for her dinner like a teenager - embarrassing. Said burger was then served raw to her after asking for it to be well done, along with the 2 other burgers that had been ordered. The food that was served was not as described on the menu at all. The price point is way of the mark for what is being delivered. "Artisan bread with whipped butter" The butter is just butter in foil - Nothing whipped about it. If you are not serving whipped butter at least put the butter in a dish and not just throw a few foiled butters on a plate. "Harrisa Hoummus with Crostini" No Crostini was served - just a standard piece of bread - Not even toasted. Kids Cheesy Garlic Bread - No Cheese Mushroom sides for the steaks were served cold. Hair found on the chips that were served with the raw burgers. The toilets were also absolutely disgusting. Even the stairs leading up to the toilets were disgusting. There was a catalogue of errors that just became completely embarrassing. We actually wondered if the main course had been served to us deliberately raw and with hair after initially complaining regarding the starters. This all surely couldn't be a coincidence or are we just the most unlikeliest diners to set foot over the door? The staff however I must say were lovely and dealt with our concerns appropriately and the service was great. Vini our server was excellent and really done his best given the circumstances. All in all the birthday meal was a disaster and all round embarrassing from start to finish. Half of the family left hungry and after years of being customers last night will unfortunately be our last.

Apart from the fantastic service from Vinni there were far too many problems. 3 x Artisan breads with whipped butter uneaten as the breads were not Artisan, the butter was not whipped but little portions in wrappers you would get at a greasy spoon. The Crustini was not toasted. The haggis bon bons that were served up were the size of grapes. 3 x well done burgers were presented virtually raw and again inedible. 1 was also full of hairs !!!. 1 x potato cheese & onion pie with no onions and the accompanying broccoli stems served on top of the pie. 2 x sides of mushrooms served in very hot platters but somehow they were stone cold ?. This venue was picked by my daughter as it was her birthday and she had visited several times in the past with good experiences, but this one completely ruined her birthday.!. 4 people out of 8 (one 4 years old) were left hungry with 3 only having a desert due to the starter and mains, and 1 only having a starter and desert. We were told there would be 40% of the bill, but somehow even after our £80 deposit was taken off there was still £201 to pay !?.

Stunning place! Everyone said hello as you walked in, stood aside to let you pass, our orders were took very quickly and the food/drinks arrived even quicker!! I am not a big fan of meat in general and have only ever had steak a few times as not a huge fan but had the 10oz sirloin and ate the lot it was just beautiful. Can not recommend this place enough.

We were a family group of 12 adults and a beautiful guide dog. This was a special get-together of family from Australia, USA, and Scotland. As a large group booking, they asked us a few days earlier to pre- book our main course order which we did. When we arrived and sat down, the waiter came to take our drinks order, and when one of us asked for Fanta, he snapped back with aggression and rudeness (maybe he thought he was funny but none of us thought so) we all got annoyed with him. We asked to take q picture of the group and he sniggered at the phone given to him, we took it back and gave him another phone to take the picture with. When the food order came they got it all wrong and tried to imply we ordered it, so we showed them the list and confirmation and they apologised and proceeded to correct the order, which took even longer to reach us. The food was of a high standard and delicious- steaks/steak sandwich, burgers, haggis, fish n chips. When they were clearing the table, one of the waiters was chewing gum (not accepted in a supposedly fine dining). We ordered desserts the same waiter was more obnoxious. Unanimously we agreed they do not deserve the service charge of 10%. We asked for the bill and the same waiter brought the bill and kept hovering around. He then realised he was annoying us so moved away. 5minutes later he returned just as we're about to pay to say sorry the manager has given a discount for the error made with the food order. We wanted to also remove the 10% service charge as they did not deliver a fine dinning service, but didn't want to stay any longer. With the guide dog, he commented quite rudely (thinking he was funny) about the dog about him lying on the floor, and avoiding stepping on him (how careless is this waiter). Also, common sense would have meant the staff should have brought water for the guide dog (signage on entrance that only guide dogs are allowed). Despite the diabolically poor service, we had a brilliant time with the whole family. We definitely will not recommend the restaurant because of their awful service.

Had seen some of the other reviews and was considering eating elsewhere, however the decor looked great and the atmosphere inside seemed lively, so we decided to settled with our choice. We were seated by a lovely young man named Diego who told us despite it being busy they had room for us if told we understood that there was a potential wait for the food. We had a ‘market menu’ offered to us with Fish Cakes and a fish burger on it, these were both really good and presented nicely. Wasn’t too long of a wait and our server even sorted out a small issue with our drinks within a matter of minutes. Apparently this market menu is going to change every few weeks or so, which if we are ever back in St Andrews would be cool to see what else they come up with.

Very popular place, but lacking in atmosphere, service is unbelievably slow, drinks list is competitively priced, in a town with a larger selection of venues, Forgan's would struggle.

Not just food, but a great experience too. Staff was incredibly friendly. We had a baby with us, and it was an easy experience. Roasts were incredible, especially the lamb. All in all, would recommend it without reserve!

Great atmosphere but inedible food. We got a hockey puck of a wagyu burger, a well done steak (asked for medium rare), a pasta dish with a sandlike texture throughout it that we couldn’t identify, and one edible seafood pasta. I’ve never sent a meal back in my entire life and have a moral revulsion even to the idea of doing so as a former restaurant employee, but I couldn’t eat this burger and can no longer hold my moral high ground. We’ll actually I didn’t send it back because I wasn’t confident the kitchen could replace it with something worth the money they were going to charge me.

Great Scottish restaurant with lots of vegetarian options on the menu! Fabulous wine selection too. They seated us without a booking, though the place was busy, and we knew we'd need to finish up to free up the table for them for a later booking. Great food, and great atmosphere!

Really enjoyed our meal at The Haven. Mussels were lovely, and fresh. Ox cheeks melted in your mouth. Served on mushrooms with rustic mash, parsnips and a lovely rich Herby jus. 👍

Fun experience to visit this iconic pub. Been to the town many times but never managed to visit before now. Had eaten so did not sample the food but lots of happy diners around and food looked decent. Drinks on the pricey side but expected due to location. Nice outside area which I imagine would be packed in summer. Great addition to the old course hotel.

We got a very good carry-out - fish and chips, steak pie, potatoes and veg, a day or two ago. Food was hot, well put together and good value.
