Tail O' The Bank in Inverclyde

I was pleasantly surprised when we stopped off here for a bite to eat. Extensive menu with deals on daily. Food was wholly acceptable and better than most pub chains. The Sharing platters are great value. I'd have no qualms going back here.

Food was ok. Portions weren’t great and nobody was at the bar at any point. Had to keep shouting through into the kitchen where the barmaid was constantly just talking to whoever was in the kitchen

I visited this pub/restaurant before and gave it 4 stars but having visited again I know that it was just my choice that was wrong, offers every day of the week keep the price down but the quality of the food and the quantity are not kept down. The food is more than enough, the flavour and serving was spot on and the price is great.

Nice pub grub and as it was a Saturday you get one of the specials for £10, food was freshly cooked and tasty and arrived fairly quickly, coffee was decent, place was clean and the views outside are amazing.

Absolutely fantastic family oriented restaurant with a wide variety of world cuisines on offer. From lush haddock from the Mediterranean sea to exotic curries. Overall a great restaurant situated in a town that I am so blessed to call home.

Visited on Saturday 11th January at lunchtime. First time here and I was impressed by the overall look. I thought the menu was pretty extensive and varied. We decided to have the 3 for £12.99(I think) so as there was 3 of us we chose 2 chicken strips and 1 wings, which were really lovely and substantial portions. We then had the mix it up with half a roast chicken, epic chicken new yorker and smothered steak sizzler, all of which were freshly cooked, tasted lovely, well presented and large portions. So after that you'd think we'd never manage dessert but after letting our meal settle we felt we had a bit of room so 2 had millionaire's cheesecake, which came with vanilla ice cream and I'm told it was delicious, I myself had a scoop of honeycomb ice cream which was also lovely. The staff were very pleasant, helpful and engaging, special mention out to the very nice and friendly lovely young lady who I believe to be the duty manager(sorry I never got her name). All in all a very enjoyable few hours spent in a very reasonably priced establishment .

It was a lovely friendly environment with cracking food and great staff and stunning sea views x

I’ve never been to a hungry horse pub before but like other chain pubs same kind of menu. Nice steak & ale pie but my wife said vegetarian lasagna was just ok. Friendly staff popular with families and I think it’ll be good place to sit outside on a nice day.

Breakfast with santa well worth the money 💰

Had the Christmas menu and it was good

Yeah went here for a Sunday lunch and it was very bad i didn't eat any as I say it was inedible.

Cheap and cheerful. No steps so good for prams wheelchairs etc. Generous helpings. Friendly staff.

First time I've here and was very impressed. I had the Chicken Tika Masala and it was very tasty with lots of tender chicken and a lovely spicy sauce. My partner had the Macaroni & Cheese with side salad, this was also very good. Will definitely call again.

We had a lovely family lunch here today service was great despite being really busy , got to especially mention the sea bass was out of this world

Brilliant atmosphere, food was awesome...

I scored four as menu needs updated as not specific. When deals are on unless u order at till it's not supplied as standard . Always ask when ordering food was fab drinks staff can't fault place been few times . Have special offers days too worth looking into x would have been 5* only menu or notice should be at till when ordering x

Love taking my parents, wheelchair accessible & food they love

Came back here again and would definitely recommend. Food was amazing, and reasonably priced. We dealt with Rob who was amazing. Friendly, efficient and kept on top of all our needs, he definitely made our explore enjoyable

I ordered the nachos as a starter. They were burnt to within an inch of their life

Delicious roasted vegetable lasagne with garlic bread and a lovely baked trifle alaska. Service was excelent with very friendly staff always asking if everything was ok. A great view if you're sitting at the window looking out to the boats and the river. Plenty of tables outside and will be great in the good weather.

Always lovely food, and great service. Elaine and (I can't remember the guys name, but he's been here a while and has recently had a baby!) are such delights. We are usually here once a week and they make us feel so at home

Decent pub grub. Generous portions, tasty varied menu. Nice views over the Clyde.

A fab restaurant witha Great View. Staff are all so nice and look after everyone so well. The food never disappoints. A credit to the owners. Many thanks again.

The best about this place is the staff, very friendly and kind

Kara is hands down one of the best bartenders I’ve ever had the pleasure of being served by. From the moment I sat down, she made me feel welcome with her friendly smile and genuine warmth. Even on a busy night, she was attentive, quick to notice when I needed a refill, and made sure everyone at the bar was well taken care of. Her knowledge of the menu and efficient service really stood out. Kara handles every situation with professionalism and a positive attitude, making the whole experience so much better. If you’re visiting tail o bank, the food, atmosphere and service is just brilliant

Came here to celebrate my birthday and was made very welcome by the lovely Kara. Lovely food and drinks. Would definitely come again 🤩😋

Very nice pub with amazing sea views great outdoor space too for fine weather food was lovely very tasty and quick lisa the waitress was very kind and very funny nothing was too much trouble for her she is a great asset for this pub we shall be returning would love other people to try the food here it's probably the best in town

Had a wonderful time here having dinner with my aunt, food was really good at a reasonable price, served by Lisa who's a wonderful friendly lady, she's a big asset to the place. Would go again any time 🙂

Came across this lovely family pub yesterday, was greeted at the door by Lisa who took me and my family to a perfect table with fabulous views, nothing was too much trouble for her she is such a breath of fresh air the food was served quickly and pipping hot 🔥 Lisa still popped back and forth in-between running around loved the day here thank you so very much definitely be returning 😁

Absolutely would go back without a doubt. Really enjoyed the food. It was mobbed as the sun was out so the service was a little slow. We were there for 3 hours sitting outside and tables around us were still uncleared by the time we left, from when we arrived. However! 100% will be back. The menu has special offers on a Friday - Sunday which was an unexpected bonus.

Very busy but service was quick and food was good

I popped in today to be greeted by Lisa she was so friendly and attentive didn’t Mind explaining the dishes for Me so funny to be served by a smiley face loved the food and again it was served by Lisa even a check back was done amazing will be back for sure

Hi went here for breakfast with some freinds this morning & orderd a bacon buttie on white bread & a tea was nearly finished eating it when i noticed a big bit of blue mould took it up to the till to show to a member of staff she asked if i wanted another one ( no thanks) then she came over & left £3 on the table wont be going here again for breakfast i should have known the bread tasted stale

Been coming here for 7/8 weeks while working away. We came in Sunday evening to be told we can’t play pool because the Scotland game was on. We agreed. After spending several hundreds of pounds behind the bar. We have then asked for the England game to be played they took untill 16mins of play to finnaly put it on. Then we as refused to have the volume on because people will complain. I just find this very prejudice against international football the bar staff was very rude and so unprofessional…:

Not a great experience - food was only just edible, cheeseburger chilli dipper was uninspiring and almost tasteless. Will need to visit Greenock again but won't be eating or drinking here.

You get what you pay for and some staff was not friendly 👎

Great pub food. Service with a smile 😊

Chicken strips and salt and pepper fries were delicious. The waiting staff and bar staff were first rate.

Ɓar staff very slow taking order

Stopped in for lunch and was warmly welcomed by the staff, good food at good prices

Luv going there for a meal, food's luvly, staff friendly. But gets too loud about 7ish with quizzes and music. Nothing wrong with that,but we're too old now lol 😆 😂 🤣 doesn't stop us going back. I would recommend no problem 😊 we enjoy quite a few dishes that's why we keep going back.

Almost a copy of a Wetherspoons. Food was stand pub type fast food.

Went here with an individual I support who is autistic and the guys where brilliant with her has a relaxed atmosphere will definitely be back 😀😃

Staff cheery and attentive..I had the curry and mate had chicken..both meals excellent and reasonable price..been in this pub a number of times over the years for meals in afternoon and always been very good 👍

One of the best fish and chips I’ve ever had. Very good value for money. Shame that the service is very poor. You have to help yourself with the cutlery, find yourself a table, order at the bar and pay in advance. Then see how the waitress is handling your glass with her fingers in it. I’ll be back tomorrow for more fish.

Was served by a nice guy called Rob. The food was great and the service was 5 stars 🌟

Decent value, clean area and friendly staff, good location, kid friendly. July 2024.decent value, in need of refurbishment now ( some repair work in progress ). Carpets especially. Service good, location good. Kids love it. Friendly and helpful staff.

Stopped for a drink outside on a beautiful day. Wonderful views

Food was great, the experience was made absolutly amazing by Rob. He was so friendly and knowledgeable about the food and beverages. He had us laughing the whole time we were there. We will be back.

First time in Tail O’ The Bank (& Greenock!) and it was a great experience all round. Food was lovely, came out promptly, and the portion size was just right. Staff were very friendly and helpful, especially the manager Robert who, despite dashing around collecting glasses and serving people, still found time to make sure everything was ok with our visit. It was the first sunny day we’ve seen in a while so the place was busy which was nice to see, would definitely be back if I’m ever over that side of the country again!

A great place for a bite of lunch, especially when it's sunny and you choose to sit outside.

Out for coffee and bacon sandwich delicious

Visited the Tail O' The Bank at around 5pm on Sunday 30th of June. We had visited Greenock for the day and had been walking around town since around 9.30. Having worked up an appetite we ordered two roasts for £15, a Turkey roast and a Topside of Beef Roast. We also had a couple of pints each too, Tennents Lager and Dark Fruits cider. £4.40 for Tennents and £4.50 for the Dark Fruits. Both Roasts were excellent! And both were generous servings! Tasted great and couldn't be faulted in any way at all! The pints went down great too. We sat outside and ate, it wasn't overly warm and was comfortable. If you sit outside to eat just be wary of the gulls and don't leave your food or table unattended as I'm sure these opportunists would be off with whatever they can. The whole experience at Tail O' The Bank was excellent, staff were friendly and welcoming and I would highly recommend it to others.

I came in with my wife football was in so busier than usual, most tables were reserved so not a lot going until once staff member helped us. Ordered in app and received drinks and shortly after our starters(sharing platter) after starter we waiting around 20-30 mins for main meal which was steak pie and meat combo. Myself and my wife have been violently sick since will not be back.

Saw on other reviews that this was a dog friendly place to eat, so booked a table for us and our dog, they phoned us up to tell us that dogs are only allowed outside so we cancelled and went elsewhere.

Set in the harbour area of Greenock, I can't co.mentbon the food as I only had a pint of lager but there was plates on the table beside us that were empty so I'm guessing the food must be nice. It's easy to get to and plenty of parking. The staff are lovely and helpful if you need them.

i went in to watch the football with some friends i was in Scotland to visit,we had a really good evening and excellent service in particular by Lisa ? i think her name was, and will definatley visit again the next time im in Scotland many thanks a really friendly pub with great staff

Great venue, great food and drinks at affordable prices. Lisa is a great asset to the team, she was very helpful and professional during our time here and went the extra mile to make sure we had everything that we needed.

Lisa was an absolute godsent for us hard worker and very persistent. Ensured our experience in your facility was top notch. Thank you Lisa for your amazing service.

I have to travel a lot for work so thought I would pop in here and it was lovely the atmosphere was nice and the server Lisa boni was incredible and kind and welcoming.

Came in for some drinks and food, was really friendly, I was greeted at the door and I was served by LISA, it was really quick service and Lisa was very proffesional and friendly, she took the time to talk with us and made us feel really welcome. 10 stars!

Service was good, friendly staff,clean and tidy tables, and a good selection of beers. If only the food had been edible!!! Dishes weren't to the standard that you get at H.H. Chicken strips,wings, and drumsticks were overcooked,and all hard and crunchy, sauce was cold, heated up but not much better,rice was soaked under the onions and peppers. Chips were the hottest thing on the plate. The last thing that might have been cooked

Excellent restaurant and service... As a vegan there are limited places with options available and Tail O' Bank came as a surprise. I had their vegan fish and chips and they were amazing.. there ice creams are decent and after a shot of Jaeger bomb and full meal of fish and chips, the ice cream was a good conclusion to the meal... The views are good to and restaurant is enough space to move around. Attracts mainly families and a weekend lunch there is all u need to unwind... Overall great experience and a must visit..👍🏻😊😋

Lovely afternoon with my cousin served by lisa apparently the newbie very polite and very helpful even Rob her trainer was great fantastic food enjoys every bite shall definitely be returning. Thank you for a great experience

Went in for breakfast on way home from a break, breakfast was nice and freshly cooked.

Food was nice , have a new menu which was nice to see

I was in yesterday with my mum for lunch for the first time and it was excellent. The food was delicious and the staff especially Robert and Lisa were so welcoming and friendly

Went for lunch with my two nieces and they were over the moon with all the servers interacting with them, tomasz and rob especially spent a lot of time chatting to them. Service from cerys at the till was fab.

Popped in for some lunch yesterday for the first time. The food was great and amazing value. Robert was fantastic, friendly, and funny, and the other girl Lisa was lovely too! It was nice weather so the kids were playing outside in the play park and we just had a great afternoon. Thanks again

Popped in for a bite to eat and drinks last week. The staff were great, especially Robert - friendly and very helpful!! Will definitely be back.

I went in after a day out with my son. The food excellent, the staff were so friendly and welcoming especially Rob and Lisa. Rob took the time to chat with us and explain the menu. We will definitely be back

Lovely place and great staff 💯 , Robb was so friendly it was so nice to meet you. First time in for food and it did not disappoint. It was a delicious and a great experience. We Will be back again. See you soon Robb

Me and the girls visited for food and drinks recently and the food was lovely! The vibe was good and staff were great, especially Robert who was really friendly, helpful, and funny! Will definitely be back as a great place when it's sunny too!

staff are lovely especially Thomas L was very helpful

Visited several times, and again the food was excellent. Service was very slow, but the sunshine had brought everyone out, so very busy. We will be back.

Sorry must have arrived at a bad time, Did not enjoy food .

Fantastic service and great food, also thank you to the Polish man who helped my son.

Excellent. Food was great as per usual.

Great location nd food budget choice for breakfast lunch and dinner.

In the area in business, staying at a nearby hotel. Wanted a meal and a bit of exercise so walked to here. Really had a warm friendly greeting, for its type (ok not fine dining) it was excellent quality, cooked/presented well and generous portion size. Bar/serving staff very friendly/helpful - really impressed - thanks

We come for breakfast and dinner a few times a week staff are always l pop peasant and efficient food is great value for money 5 stars to Lindsay and staff

Steak and Ale pie without steak.

Hungry Horse chain pub. First impressions were not good, they appeared short-staffed. Two on tills. Big queues and tables not being cleared. We found a reasonably clean one. I ordered the Steak and Ale pie. My wife ordered the lasagne. Drinks arrived promptly. The glasses were not cleaned properly and were streaky. Food came no errors in order. No one asked if we wanted anything else. It was a pay-as-you-order set-up. £20.14. Really good value. Wouldn't rush back though. Too dirty

Went on Easter Sunday, packed out. When I finally discovered how to get a table for two I was met by a member of staff, (one of the few forward facing staff), I could find, I was asked if I had booked, no I had not booked, stand aside sir if you have not booked, we have no places. No signs externally stating you had to book, staff member was almost belligerent, I looked behind me and we were the only two in the que and a few tables were EMPTY. I don't know if this was because my son was clearly special needs or the staff member was a plumber filling in for short staff. Would I go there again, NO, was the front facing member of staff helpful or sympathetic, NO. Avoid.

Needs more seating never any seats when I go😞

In for a family meal.... service was excellent and food was outstanding.

The steak pie was just awful, very thick hard pastry and when you managed to cut it, it was absolutely swimming in gravy with very little meat that was very chewy, not appetising at all ☹️

Poor menu-young female staff member extremely rude

Mixed grill , 2for1 jack burger meals (Friday deal), mac n cheese, garlic bread & fries, 4 soft drinks all less than £40 with my blue light discount card , food was really nice hot and tasty, service was excellent and quick (6pm) started to get really busy an hour later, looking forward to going back.

Beautiful pub fantastic staff and my the sea bass was delicious will deffinately be returning and highly recommend ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Great food,couldn't finish steak pie,fast service but we went midday so pub not full ! 2 food and 2 drink £27 so great value,have been before and will go again.

Nice stop for a family meal BOGOF burgers on a Friday night didn’t disappoint The texture of the chicken was a little strange but it was edible. 5 meals, drinks and desserts for £60 can’t go wrong

Tomasz was very helpful and very friendly

Tomasz was very helpful and friendly

Been coming since it opened. Food not as good but passable. Service is good especially the young Polish person called Thomas. Helpful friendly and converses easily.

Great food, reasonable prices. Friendly staff, can't go wrong for a bit of grub.

This used to be me and my bf’s go-to place. But now its more 1 Bruse Street we go to. Went to Tail of Bank today as everywhere else was shut, Bruce St, Steak House, Albany were all cloesd, so came here. My bf's chips were hollow (no potato)! (which only means these were leftover chips, and deep fried AGAIN), my chicken was dry AF. We were both disdappointed. Also, it was a cold/wet day, so I had asked for a coffee, and there were NO coffee except an Americano were available! I had a tea which was rotten. Not to mention you don't even get given your cutlery with meal. I had two elderly people next table to me, who weren't happy with this either. This was suppoesd to be BF's bday meal. I said i'd get him a better meal next time, like not in here!

Good atmosphere and staff are friendly. Tam Kara and Erin are really helpful

Lovley polish man brilliant customer service

Got our food and was told tea would be there soon. We had to go hunt out the staff to remind them about the teas 20 minutes after finishing our food. Not good.
