Hotel Chocolat Fort Kinnaird in Angus

Struggling to get used to the new opening hours arrived too late to sit in. Had hoped to sit in but staff cleaning up. Asked for food to go from menu but could not even get a sandwich. Server went off to do more chores. I spotted made up blister pack sandwiches, one of the other staff shouted to my serverwho came back, had forgotton about counter sandwiches. Managed to get a chicken tikka sandwich and a tuna mayo sandwich plus a muffin and a trybake. The sandwiches were very fresh and appetising and the home baking was delicious. A very good selection to choose from I was very satisfied and would choose the same in that situation again. Would reccomend to anyone and will still come back.

Decided to try here after family recommended it however we left disappointed. Firstly, We felt we waited a long time considering the place was near empty and the cutlery at our table was sticky…. My wife had steak pie, steak was tough and gravy more like a chicken gravy than beef, very average. I had the katsu curry which tasted nice (this is why I gave 2 stars in total) and we shared a salt and pepper chicken. I ordered my son a cheeseburger which came very pink in the centre, not an issue for an adult but kids don’t like ‘rare’ burgers, it was very thin so the chef must only have flashed it on the grill, again pretty disappointed with this one. We should have expected this it being a Belhaven which I usually avoid, gave it a chance due to the recommendation but won’t be giving it another one. Cost us a cool £40.

Attended a surprise birthday party upstairs in the function suite. There was a good selection of chairs for everybody. The dancefloor was ok assuming most people don't get up to dance, however it was extremely sticky probably a combination of spilt drinks and not polished. It's perhaps ok from a safety perspective but if you want to dance it's rough on the knees! Toilets were ok but really dark so no way you could fix your makeup if that's your thing. It was a good size for a private function and most folk probably don't care about the dance floor.

Worst curry ever certainly not Chinese

Chapter and verse is my favourite restaurant in Forfar. The curries are the best, but the menu offers a good range of options for everyone, let’s say there is a mix of indian and pub meals. Service has always been excellent, fast and excellent value for money. I cannot recommend it high enough, this is because the kitchen staff is talented and consistent preparing high quality meals.
