I would like to say a bit disappointing was giving a menu opted for 2 meals at £10.95 each then the bill comes back charges us £14.50 for each meal apparently we are supposed to ask for a small portion but they assume we wanted a big portion....meal it self was served in less than 5 mins and was more like a carvery if anything definitely would never go back

Been at carrigans on 5 occasions in past month steak pie every time perfect and loads pastry great apart from last visit to bar for lunch it was one of them pastry shell like things that is dryer than sawdust try cut into it just falls apart into wee crumbs absolute rubbish to be honest I had a quiet chat with waitress about it she suggested next time get more gravy pure it over it We decided to come to you place as your computation down the road standards dropped everything brilliant about meal apart from the sawdust cases I understand these pastry cases are pre made or bought in have a wee look into it Try it yourself actually try and eat it they are rubbish and we have no way of telling you are gonna serve that again until it’s on the table

Meal was lovely 😍 my only gripe is 2 of us only have an hour and a half but tables of 6 etc have 3 hours. What's the difference 🤔 was only just finished our main meal and bottle of wine and had to move. Does it take bigger parties longer than me to eat meal. 😕 or do you get more money from them so they can stay longer.

We went as a family of 3 as a special treat. Ordered chilli nachos to share,very sweet tasting and watery making the nachos soggy straight away. Mixed pakora was average,sure portion size is smaller My daughter and i were going to order mac n cheese until we asked what it came with to be told NOTHING even though the online menu says chips,salad,or garlic bread? On hearing this we ordered the fish and chips £30 for both,one with batter,the other with breadcrumbs. Tasteless fish,some skin still on it which is a no no from me and the worst thing was the frozen chips.. Carrigans why have you done away with your chippy chips? Big mistake Hubby ordered lasagne and a side portion of chips because that comes with NOTHING on side as well,Nothing to write home about Really don't know how they can justify the price for lasagne with nothing on side,2 mins down the road to the parkville you get garlic ciabatta,rocket and parmesan and also the fish would have been 2 for 1. Hey ho you live and learn,£77 for food and drinks Profit before custom,won't be back Could have had an amazing fish supper from alhambra in bellshill for a lot cheaper. Won't be back,.big letdown. Standards are slipping big time.

This was supposed to be a special occasion for mums 78th birthday, however wasn’t very busy when we arrived & staff seemed to lack communication between each other. Starters were just ok, breaded mushroom with ham & cheese tasteless & bread & butter with the prawn cocktail had gone limp & butter had melted. My mum had the steak pie with potatoes (small portion) when it arrived it looked like stodgy overload as there was a very large dod of mashed potato(which was tasteless )on the top & big chunks of carrot & turnip, the steak pie pastry was undercooked, gravy very anaemic with the meat, at the end of our meal they just asked if we were finished. Unfortunately the plate was mostly filled with boiled potatoes, turnip, carrot & savoy cabbage which was over cooked, I think they should concentrate on the quality of the food they are serving rather than the large portion sizes. Rather disappointing.

I have been going to Carrigans in all of its guises for many many years. The staff are always really friendly and attentive & the place is clean but in recent times I have noticed a decline in most areas. Communication: On so many visits now I have been asked repeatedly by different staff members if we have ordered, are these your drinks, did you order 10 drinks for 2? It’s like speed dating for drinks. I ordered 2 drinks, one was incorrect and the other couldn’t be consumed as the glass smelled funky. The incorrect drinks order has happened now on numerous occasions. It can on occasions be a constant procession of the same questions. I guess it’s better than sitting for ages in your invisibility cloak waiting on being asked why you’re sat there but it’s clear that communication amongst staff is lacking. I can see how hard they work and they never stop rushing about & are always courteous and pleasant but they’re probably on occasions giving themselves more work with the duplication of effort. Food quality: I very sadly have to agree with many people on here that Carrigans food standards have massively slipped. The prices however have not! Some of the prices rival city centre prices but are in no way matched with the quality of ingredients being used. Lasagne should be layers of pasta piled high, tomato & béchamel sauce layers, meat layers and cheese topping. The lasagne I had was flat as a witches and mainly consisted of cheese and sauce, now what’s not to love about hunners of melted cheese but when it becomes a dangerous bungee jump of cheese & you’re trying to swallow it without choking to death then it becomes less fun. I wanted to order chicken but I’m sorry, I’m not paying close to £18 for a fried escalope & some frozen chips. I want Sinatra to sing with that chicken at that price. Would love to try the steak but at £30+, I’m not taking the risk of crying inconsolably in public and I’m an ugly crier. There are plenty of local places offering a much better quality of food without the man v food portions and at way more affordable prices. In a very bizarre way, going to Carrigans has now become an underwhelming occasional luxury more than what it once was renowned for - an enjoyable affordable treat.

Second time to attend at this restaurant, not much to complain about regarding food and staff. food is lovely, service is second to none and the decor is also homely but I will say I was very disappointed when we ordered a water & received a plastic bottle of “ ice valley “ I don’t think they realise we all shop in similar supermarkets you can get a 24 pack of this water for £4.00 & they charge £2.25 per bottle ( that’s £50 profit put one multipack ) surely that’s daylight robbery.

Despite having lived in area all my life, and been aware of Carrigan's and it's reputation for years ( decades) , yesterday was my 1st visit... What.took.you.so.long !!!! Fantastic experience from start to finish - Apologies I didn't take note of staff who served us names but all were efficient, knowledgeable and very friendly - Could see from interactions with other tables really take time to build relationships with customers. The meal itself - My Father in Law had Prawn Cocktail - looked lovely, and don't remember seeing as many prawns included in anywhere else I've been - I had the Louisania Chicken which was also a great dish. For main course, I had steak pie - I'm no stranger to a plate of steak pie and gave had many good ones in restaurants over the years - This one tops the lot - Simply put it was the tenderest meat ever had in a steak pie - 2 'small' !! Fish and Chips and a Southern Chicken completed our order - Everyone happy with their choice. For dessert I had the 'Sharing' Mars Bar Fudge cake - all to myself 🙄 Sorry, not sorry - was amazing! All in all our bill for 2 Starters, 4 mains, 4 desserts and 7 soft drinks was just over £100 - I thought would be way more so was extremely happy with that., do as you can imagine was delighted. I will certainly be back again and would highly recommend Carrigan's to anyone

As is the case with many people in Lanarkshire, this place is a regular haunt for me and it never disappoints. This time, I opted for the Tex Mex chicken, which was excellent - the chicken was tender and the pulled pork was delicious. At Carrigan’s, you’re always guaranteed a big portion and it’s often sensible to forgo a starter as a result. They also have an extensive range of desserts and the lemon sorbet was the perfect palate cleanser. After your dinner, there’s absolutely no harm in popping next door to the bar area for a few light refreshments. The service at Carrigan’s is always spot on, the food is great value for money and there is a lovely atmosphere too. This place is a must try.
