Links Hotel Restaurant in Angus

Never have we been to a hotel with such friendly welcoming staff. Everyone we met showed us the greatest hospitality. Nothing was too much trouble. We ate in the restaurant on both nights of our stay and enjoyed the food and again the friendly attitude of the staff. Breakfast was varied with a choice of hot dishes including Arbroath smokies. Our room was spacious and warm with a view over the green. We will certainly return if we visit Montrose again. The birdwatching was good too!

We had a group meal here for a birthday. I'd highly recommend, nice staff great food and service with an appealing menu.

The food was excellent and beautifully presented. We were staying at the hotel and ate dinner there 2 consecutive nights. There seemed to be only one vegetarian option, however the chef suggested an additional couple of options which he would be happy to cook for me. I have food allergies which were carefully accommodated too. The meals were delicious, the staff were welcoming, polite, friendly, efficient and could not have done more for us. I would be very happy to return and do recommend it. The Links Hotel had been a wealthy mill owners family home in the 1800s and many grand period features still remain, it is interesting and atmospheric. i Our bedroom was very comfortable.

Our hotel restaurant in Montrose was closed so we have been eating out every night, We thought we would try another hotel. On a Thursday night it was very very quiet, but we had a nice meal and would definitely go again

Had three nights here and was great. Nice rooms great food and drink. Staff were fabulous. Reece is a great lad for a Scottish mancunian.

Lovely large clean room. Staff at this hotel were incredibly friendly and helpful, they really made our stay here very enjoyable. The evening meal we had here was exceptional, I would highly recommend anyone that stays here to book an evening meal in the restaurant.

Ate in the restaurant the 3 nights we stayed at the hotel. Great choice from the menu and tasted delicious.

Great attentive service. Started well with pre dinner drinks. Fillet steak was cooked to perfection and sides were generous.

Good choice of menu & good food. Restaurant is very pleasant and really liked the conservatory area for eating.

Arrived to a warm reception both in temperature and from the greeting. Our coats were taken and the choose of going straight to our table or a table in the bar till our meal was ready. Opting for the bar we were given what can only be described as a tour of the gins available. Gin was our thing this year. We enjoyed the friendly atmosphere till or meal was ready. Your seat at the table had a small silver box with a party popper a rasping balloon. Party horn and streamers. The Christmas cracker banged when pulled. Enclosed the hat, the joke, and quality item. The meal was excellent value and supper tasty. We had a great time. Our visit exceeded all our expectations. Thank you for an awesome evening.

Held our wedding here & cannot thank Anne & all the staff at the hotel enough. Anne went over & above to help with all the organising & arrangements. The staff on the day helped us so much with the layout, guest requirements & making sure our day went smoothly. All the food & service on the day was brilliant. Couldn’t have asked for a better day!

2 nachten verbleven in het hotel. De kamer was " fit for purpose" groot genoeg voor mij alleen en voorzien van alle wenselijke items. Ontbijt was persoonlijk en meer dan voldoende. Warme gerechten werden op wens klaar gemaakt. Dinner was zeer goed te noemen, zeer ruime porties. Vlees was prachtig van kwaliteit. Dessert was hele top, niks op aan te merken! Personeel is zeer vriendelijk, attent en behulpzaam. Aan te bevelen!

Food was top notch massive portions great menu selection something to suit everyone Breakast & Dinner

I meet up at the links with a group of friends once a month. The food is always very good and at a reasonable price but the coffee is not so good.

This was a super hotel. Well maintained in all areas. Double rooms were a great size. Staff could not have been better,very friendly and helpful. The food in the restaurant was great both nights as was breakfasts. Would definately stay here again.

The Links Hotel restaurant is an excellent place to go for lunch, dinner or just for a coffee and cake. you get a good view of the mid-links from the restaurant. Well worth a visit.

Staying in the Hotel we enjoyed two superb breakfasts and dinners. Menus were extensive and interesting using locally sourced produce, beautifully cooked and presented with friendly, knowledgeable staff

Just had a fantastic meal, quality was really good and atmosphere a lot more relaxed than roos that we ate in last night.

Ate dinner here whilst staying in the Hotel. Food was plentiful, fresh & nicely served. My husband highly rated the Mixed Grill & said the fillet steak was one of the best he had ever had!

Ci siamo fermati in questo ristorante durante un tour. L'ambiente è pulito, con un aspetto un po' retrò, con molto legno. Il pranzo che ci è stato servito, nella media dei menù scozzesi, mi è parso curato e gradevole. Puliti e ordinati anche i servizi.

A nice environment and an enjoyable meal with friendly and prompt service. Easy walking distance from Montrose Centre

Morning breakfast is really good and organised.. the receptionist Anne is a swt friendly woman .. thankyou .. and the other staff as well .. rooms are really clean .. showers works perfectly and matresses is so comfy .., 12 points ! Keep it up .. parking is easy and good location as well

The main courses here were great, lovely salmon with lots of fresh veg.

Just stayed at the hotel for 4 nights. I found the quality of food in the restaurant very good. Always nicely presented too.

We have just returned from a two night break at the above.

I ordered a Home made Burger which was served with home made chips and a side salad, on the second night I ordered a Chicken in Dijon type sauce with roast potatoes and veg, I partially liked this very tasty and filling

We stayed dinner bed and breakfast and the food was amazing with a lovely menu. The staff and food could not have been better, we had our dog with us and we ate dinner in the lounge/bar at night. We would highly recommend this hotel.

Can't rate zero unfortunately. Pretty sure I'd of got better service at fawlty towers, infact I'd of preferred bates motel. Avoid!!!

I was booked in by a local site I am supporting on a lighting project so pot luck for me.

the food is fantastic in this hotel. I am coeliac and they cater very well for my medical condition. The salmon is beautiful and my husband rated the fish and chips at 10/10

Estábamos un equipo de tres enlaces hotel estancia calle. Teníamos desayuno y cena en el restaurante. El desayuno era bueno, según un desayuno Británico estándar con cereales, ensaladas de frutas. Pedimos huevos, bacon, salchichas, frijoles que eas snd muy bueno.

Top food, great presentation. wonderful ambience and friendly staff. Loved the stained glass and serene atmosphere.

Como nos alojábamos en el hotel por un par de días y los comentarios parecían razonables, decidimos probar el restaurante, pero tengo que decir que nada contenta.

Restaurante muy clásico. Personal amable y un servicio rápido. Tienen un menú excelente y a un precio razonable cena.

Fui por primera vez aquí cuando yo estaba visitando Montrose con vistas a mudarme aquí. Ahora que vivo aquí es mi sitio al que ir para cualquiera que esté visitando.

Comer aquí regularmente y siempre una delicia especiales ofrecen a los comensales un menú variado, con una buena selección diaria desde bocadillos hasta comidas principales, siempre hay algo para el almuerzo o la cena, o incluso si os apetece un Café y un pastel bien...

I visited the restaurant with a friend at lunchtime. I had one of the specials of the day, which was roast lamb. Lovely meal, cooked to perfection. Staff service was friendly & welcoming.

Had a meal out with friends and it was one of their birthdays. The staff were brilliant, kept gifts behind the bat safely until the next day. Had a laugh with us. Glasses were never empty.More to the point the food looked and tasted delicious!! Menu seems a tad pricey until you have the food and then it's justified! Worth the price! Deffo worth going for a meal!

After consulting tripadvisor for somewhere decent to have lunch in Montrose, we decided to try the Links Hotel. We found ourselves in a lovely warm conservatory area which was a blessing given the cold winter weather outside.I chose the salad from the specials board which was an absolute delight with lots of salmon, smoked salmon and prawns in a lovely light Marie rose dressing. The salad included lovely thin slivers of melon and avocado and it was beautifully presented.My husband chose the Sri Lankan Chicken Curry from the main menu which was delicious and also well presented.There was a bit of a wait for the food but when we were presented with two amazing dishes the time was all forgotten about.We would definitely recommend and return to this restaurant again.

For all those that like a steak and a good deal then I suggest the Friday Night at The Links Hotel.Excellent steak and good value for money.Very wise to book.

Lovely spacious room and very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Dinner and breakfast both well cooked and using locally sourced ingredients. Would definitely stay here again if in Montrose again.

After a 4.5 hour drive I was ready for some food. The restaurant was quiet and the service was very quick. The fish and chips were lovely and my colleagues scotch broth was divine. We sat in the bar although the restaurant is quite nice especially the conservatory part. I would come back.

Menu is nice here for lunch or dinner. Also a nice place to have coffee and cake. Good value for money.

We stayed in an executive room which was excellent. The room and bathroom was spacious and very well appointed. The bed was very comfortable. The breakfast was freshly cooked to order. The staff we met were all very pleasant and helpful. There is a large car park so parking was never a problem. The hotel is very near the town centre.I would definitely recommend this hotel and will be returning whenever I'm back in Montrose.

I must commend The Links Hotel and all its staff for the excellent food, service and special care given to arranging my mother's 90th birthday party.Everything was arranged via phone as I live in London but I could not have wished for better. A special room was provided free of extra charge to give us the privacy needed for this occasion. This room was splendid in its grandeur and just the right size for a party of 18.Food was ample and nicely presented. Service was faultless.Thank you to Ann and her assistants for giving my mother an evening to remember.

Had a really good meal here we came for carvery. Selection of meats. Staff were friendly. Clean place and good value for money. Will be back!

A must , food really good, steak amazing, try the Diane sauce, sevise so polite , nothing to much bother, good selection of wines, lovely building xx than you so much

This is a lovely hotel. The room was spacious and decorated nicely. Food in the hotel was fabulous with generous portions. Would definitely come back.

Good quality local sourced food was enjoyed in the comfort and ambiance of this well run restaurant. Good value and recommended.

We use this restaurant regularly as it is particularly good for steaks. Staff are friendly and quite informal but service is very good and the food is excellent.

When we visit my parents on a Sunday we always go to the Links carvery. This is held every Sunday and is always very good and very good value. The starters are all laid out on tables so you help yourself. They comprise standard stuff such as prawn cocktail, pate, soup. The main courses are all cut from massive roasts of beef, gammon and lamb and are accompanied by different sorts of potatoes and veg with a choice of gravy. Then the desserts are, again, laid out in a different part of the restaurant and are, again, pretty standard stuff-fruit salad, cheesecake, jelly. We always enjoy it and are always full by the end of the meal which, for me, is very important! There is a bar which serves a modest selection of beers and there is wine too although we very rarely have wine at lunch.

Had lunch here whilst staying in Montrose. The restaurant was light and airy. The staff were friendly and nothing was too much bother. We had fish which was battered but when we asked if it could be breaded it wasn't a problem. The portion was ample and very tast

Enjoyed our meal from set meal. Service was excellent too. Good variety to suit most palates. Nice choice for breakfast also.

Three of us ate dinner at The Links on two separate days. On both occasions the food was very good but the restaurant has a sterile formal atmosphere. The meals the first time were steak, venison and gammon. On the second occasion two of us ate steak whilst the third member of our party ate venison. The venison was somewhat overcooked both times.

A must , food really good, steak amazing, try the Diane sauce, sevise so polite , nothing to much bother, good selection of wines, lovely building xx than you so much

Excellent food. Ate here for 3 nights on business. Value for money too. The staff were great, good selection of wines and beer. If you like venison, try it here. Amazing....compliments to the Chef.

We dined here on Saturday and Sunday nights. On the Saturday the restaurant was very busy and there was a bit of a wait for the table. We were seated in the bar and our drinks were fetched whilst we perused the menu. The system seemed to work well.We would recommend booking at busy times.We chose to sit in the conservatory - which seems less formal in character and allowed us to make the most of the long summer evenings.We would wholeheartedly recommend the Arbroath smokie tartlet and also the surf n turf which was one of the specials on the Sunday night. The steak was incredibly tender. The staff in the restaurant and bar were very friendly and helpful (without being too attentive).

Stayed at this hotel twice over the course of a two month period. Fab hotel, rooms are lovely, clean with great house keeping service. The food was very good and such amazing staff who are actually interested in you as a person and not just a customer.

I picked this hotel out of the Internet. Was I lucky to come across it, very much so. I took a 2 night dinner b+b, in an upgraded room. The room, the service, the food quality and the decor was outstanding. We will be back.

My family and I spent a pleasant Sunday lunchtime at The Links where we enjoyed a very substantial Carvery served by very accommodating Staff. Would recommend

Food was excellent,even though we arrived late..Natalie gave us brilliant service.....thanks guys food was delicious ❤️

We celebrated our son's birthday with a most enjoyable meal at the Sunday carvery. It was good value for money and plenty of choices. The staff were efficient and most helpful. The surroundings are very pleasant. We shall be going back and would recommend a visit.

Wholesome, fresh, well cooked. Generous portions. Enjoyed the best ever steak here. Environment, could do with a face lift, but staff friendly and efficient.

We met here for coffee, and were pleasantly surprised by the excellent value for money. Between us we had latte, cappuccino , Americans and hot chocolate . All were really good.....as were the scones! Mmmmmmm!

Friendly professional staff with a good sense of humour. Had the steak and could not fault it one bit. Will definitely be back.

Fantastic hotel with oodles of customer service, beautiful rooms, splendid restaurant, with a choice to suit anyone's palate.....1st time staying in this establishment, however I have a feeling it won't be the last :0) You got to love Bonnie Montrose.....

I go here frequently wether it's a coffee and cake or a lunch or evening meal The good is all prepared from good quality ingredients first class service and is a suitable place to sit down and have a chat with Freinds highly recommend

My partner and myself had a very lovely meal at this restaurant.We had pre dinner drinks in the bar which was very enjoyable.The food was good as was the service. Only a few choices on the menu but what they did offer, they did very well.The bill didnt shock us too much either, I would recommend this restaurant.

I frequent the Links Hotel quite often, always find a friendly face and willingness to make you welcome and see to your needs. The food is always excellent, well presented and delivered to you table in an expert way. Prices are reasonable in dinning room and bar. Bedrooms were always clean tidy and spacious.

Links Hotel offers excellent food with a good choice on the menu. Staff are very helpful and polite but there's no atmosphere in the restaurant which is a real shame.

Our meal was absolutely delicious, we could not fault it. Our waitress Fiona was so lovely and friendly. The restaurant is very relaxed and comfortable. I had prawns and scallops to die for, my friend had goat's cheese tartlet and finished it without a stop. We both had Venison for main that was just melt in the mouth. Thank you all for a lovely night.

We were staying in Montrose and this restaurant came recommended and it lived up to expectation. The bar is cozy and inviting. The restaurant features wonderfully prepared soups, salads and entrees including classic Scottish fare. The soup of the day was a lentil soup that was hearty and full of complex flavor. The mixed grill was a great deal for 20 pounds. It features local steak, chicken, a lamb chop, delicious Cumberland Sausage, bacon, the best black pudding I've ever had, tomatoes, mushrooms and chips. The atmosphere is very nice, warming even, and you'll leave very satisfied.

we had a family get together over sunday lunch here .lovely choice of starters something for all ages . we ranged in ages from young to in our nineties. the actual roast dinner was beautifully served. the staff here are very welcoming and friendly . real heartfelt honest care which is rare these days. puddings were also good with lots of choices . very nice for a relaxing meal and would recommend if not been to rush there this sunday ..

Weekend buffet was superb and mouth wateringDinners were my best, well chosen menu, the chefs are some of the best you can ever get, which ever menu you choose from the list, be sure it will surely digest fast to assist in good sleep, and perfect body physique . Both vegetarian and non will always have appetizing meals, don't fail to request for the soup of the day, as a starter, they also have the very best of wines to pilot your meals, just ask for the best and you will get it (Red wine)

We landed at the Links Coffee Shop by default as the place we had intended to eat was full but what a great discovery. My companion had a sandwich and I had a toasted sandwich both of which were served with chips and a side salad. We both ended up having to ask for a doggy bag as we couldn't finish our sandwiches but they were far too good to leave behind. The service was good, the food delicious (and a reasonable selection on the menu), the only reason I have not given full marks is that the coffee shop lacked character and atmosphere; it was a bit stark and uninviting when we first entered but that is only a very minor negative in an otherwise very pleasant experience.

Been told to sit at the bar despite asking for a table three times. As soon as food arrived the waiter told me I could go to sit at a table and asked whether he could carry my glass of beer I was already drinking which seemed odd. The food was average, I liked an Italian place in only 3 minutes walk much better!

This is a friendly, light and spacious for coffees and lunches. Lunches are lovely and coffee good but pancakes need fine tuning.

We take my very elderly mother (she 92 years old) at least twice a week to the Links Hotel for coffee and cake, and though she doesn't member many of the staff from one visit to the next, they are all so lovely to her and treat her with so much care and tenderness. We've also taken her there for Sunday lunch and again she enjoyed the whole experience so much, both food and service. My sincere thanks to all of the staff members and the hotel management for caring about a very old lady!

Dined here as we were staying at the hotel. We found the food lovely - all freshly made and to the highest standard. Our only grievance was having to wait in the rather small dining area until our meal was ready. This would normally sound like outstanding service but we felt rather awkward as the area was quite small, quiet with a TV in the corner.

Had lunch here the other day realy enjoyed it staff realy nice nice place to sit and have a catch up with friends not rushed in any way definitely be back

We used the restaurant two or three times and the food was always excellent. The restaurant is also a nice place to eat, the staff are very capable and add to the fine experience.

We took a friend from Norfolk to this hotel restaurant as the chef Frank (Franck?) had been recommended. For about forty years I spent three or four nights a week in hotels throughout Europe and North America and have experienced the highs and lows of hotel food. Indubitably Frank's food at the Links is the best ever. Local venison, crab, salmon and lamb, on this occasion washed down by local ales from the Burnside Brewery as Richard is not a wine drinker. The meal was faultless and showed the chef's French heritage and training in the best possible light. I am sure this place is not as well known as it should be as one does not normally equate fine dining with hotels, but I can say that if the rooms (recently upgraded I believe) are even half as good as the food then you are in for a treat. When we complimented the chef to our waitress, the redoubtable Frank took a few moments out from the kitchens to chat with us - I think I may have to keep an eye on my wife as she certainly fell for his Gallic charm. One word of advice, be open minded and try the French based dishes, although the staple steaks are on the menu and no doubt very good, they are only hanging on for the benefit of the less adventurous.

A friend and myself went for afternoon tea at the Links Hotel Restaurant,We had toast and cake this were very nice.Restaurant was very pleasant and friendly staff but not overpowering.No hurry for us to leave we enjoyed the atmosphere of surroundings.Would recommend Links Restaurant for everyone,will be back in future.

A hot Soup for lunch, just before the rain fell. My inner bell is always chiming at lunchtime. Never miss a lunch. At the "Koffiehaus" they had good Soup of the day, pai, sandwhich and pots of tea. We needed tea because of the drissling weather. quick service, Nice People, decent prices.

Ate here as a hotel guest. There are not many good standard restaurants in the area and this one stands out from the alternatives. Steak Friday is great value. The desserts are amazing. You can eat in the main restaurant or less formally in the conservatory. Staff are knowledgible and friendly.

I had a beautifully cooked chicken dish and the others had a variety of fish or meat. All were pleased with the quality of food but one was disappointed with his portion of fish.Friendly attentive staff in bar and restaurant. Plenty of residents choosing to eat here and the place was full so I would suggest booking.

Great food in both quality and quantity and most certainly value for money. Looking forward to next visit already.

We went out for a meal on Saturday and were greeted very well by the lovely Receptionist who too some time to have a chat and then wen were shown to our table. The staff are very accommodating and helpful. Service was excellent and reasonably priced. I would definitely highly recommend the Links Hotel Restaurant to any one.

Well done Links staff for reclaiming what has to be one of the best eating experiences in Angus, if not Scotland.I broke from the norm and had one of the Chicken curries which was not a mistake, follow this with the sticky toffee pudding what else do you need.Special Mention for the Serving staff and of coure the Chef.Second to none Well Done

My wife and i went to celebrate my birthday. we go often to the carvery but this was a different matter. Our starters were ok ish although what was described as a pate was more like a mousse. I ordered lamb shank for my main and my wife stuffed chicken breast. The lamb was inedible as was soooo salty, as was my wife's chicken. We complained and found the head chef was not on duty, and received an excuse about the red wine reduction, but there was no red wine in my wife's meal. We then left the restaurant.

What a disappointment, paid £14 each for a fish tea and the fish was not even fresh, the batter had been applied to make the fish look far bigger than it was. Very poor and not worth it.

Food is very good and service first classNext time we are in the area , we will be going back to links! Very nice desserts ! Lovely presentation !

The Links has a very good selection for lunch from soup and sandwiches to main meals. The quality of the food is consistently very good and the service is excellent.

Our table for 4 was booked by a family member for 7.30pm. I myself arrived early, and yes, the rest of the family was 5 minutes late. However, our drink order was taken while sitting in the bar area, delivered about 20 minutes later, another 30 minutes for the food order to be taken, and another 45 minutes before we we shown to our table, and eventually our food arrived.The meal itself was average. I understand (through the fairly polite staff), that there was a function on at the same time. I'm afraid I don't find this a viable excuse for a long standing hotel such as this. I thought perhaps it was just a one off situation, just one of those nights for a busy place in the center of Montrose. Afterward, other locals asked where we ate, when I told them the name of the Hotel their automatic reply "bet you had a long wait then?".

All the staff made our visit a pleasure,the chef in particular excelled with his menu. We ate there two nights running. A first for our golf outing.

I had a lovely meal here with family. The food was tasty and well presented. Portion sizes were large. I will be going back!

service excellent staff efficient and friendly food excellent and good value for money. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone visiting the Montrose area either for a lunch or special occasion dinner.

This is tricky. We went on a Sunday lunch for the carvery option & if it had been just myself then it would certainly be 4/5 because the three meat options (4 slices in total) were so succulent (Gammon, Lamb & Beef) and tender I could have happily gone to a meaty heaven, with a little yorkshire pud on the side. However, we had a vegan in the party (I had notified the hotel 24 hrs before and was assured a suitable starter, main and dessert would be offered) along with a Sunday lunch fanatic. Upon arriving, our vegan was offered the mains option of a veg curry or pasta with tomato sauce (she opted for pasta). Thinking it would be an egg free pasta as it was offered to her knowing her dietary requirements, however 10 mins after ordering the waitress came back and said "you've ordered the pasta, that's got eggs in it" and so she had to go for the curry which delayed her main course by another 10 minutes (we'd already eaten most of our carvery options). The waiting staff were not the friendliest in the world and didn't offer a smile over lunch or look to engage in a polite conversation.It was a reasonable price at either £12.95 for two courses or £15.95 for three courses, the home made fruit crumble with a nutty topping accompanied by Maggi's vanilla ice cream was a popular final dish, but I was disappointed with the way our vegan was treated and no one apologised for the original mistake. Unsure I'll be returning.

When visiting a friend in Montrose, we went to the Links Hotel Coffee shop for lunch. On entering we chose a table in the window. The waiter came over immediately and offered us the menus. He asked what we would like to drink. We selected the soup and sandwich snack lunch. The soup was Cream of Vegetable (no choice). There was an excellent choice of sandwiches, baguettes or paninis. The waitress took our order, then we waited approx 12 minutes for the soup, despite the Coffee Shop not being very busy. The sandwiches came before we had finished our soup. They were very nicely served with salad and chips. The helpings were very generous and everything was very tasty. During our snack lunch, the chef came out and spoke to the clientele at all the tables - a very nice touch. We would recommend the Links Hotel Coffee Shop to anyone looking for somewhere to have a snack lunch in Montrose.

Ho provato questo ristorante in quanto ero ospite dell'albergo.Il cibo è nella media, le porzioni non troppo generose.I sapori sono delicati ma nulla di entusiasmante. Il conto è stato caro in rapporto a quanto ricevuto. C'è di meglio in giro.
