The Adamson in Fife

Over rated Over priced Over buttered Over sized plates I’d avoid if you don’t like being ripped off.

I arrived at the Adamson with a feeling of anticipation, having selected it from a number of other restaurants through some online research. I liked the look of it and was immediately taken with the atmosphere and the modern, tasteful interior. I was entertaining two people whom I had only met that day as a reward for organising a special event at the University. Fortunately, we had a lovely evening because we had so much to talk about, but the dining experience was seriously disappointing. One of my guests had beef, which he said was very good. The other guest and I had chicken Kiev which was so dry and devoid of buttery delight that I would have sent it back if I had been dining with my wife. It should never have left the kitchen. A pricey side order of green beans was only just north of raw, (and I like my veg "al dente"). Furthermore, the service, though pleasant enough when it came, was desperately slow and inattentive to the point of carelessness. I left a 12.5% tip. God knows why, except that my new friends had put me in a good mood.

Terrific service and the food was amazing. Will go back here.

We found all the staff very welcoming and friendly and nothing was too much trouble especially when it came to our fur baby Gracie who took a special shine to one of our waitresses( you know who you are 🥰) the food was second to none and it was a lovely atmosphere and we will definitely be back, thank you all for such a nice night.

Steak and Mac and cheese were exceptional 👌🏼

The food left much to be desired, entered with high hopes, left feeling poor and upset. The lingunie was luke-warm, at best, and the prawns were clearly frozen. However, our waitress was very lovely and had some cracking eyes, except when I ask for sparkling water I expect San Pellegrino. Luckily, the wine was served in pints, so I could drink away my sorrows of this extremely sub-par culinary experience.

This was just so underwhelming and overpriced . I had scallops .. expensive started and there were only two .. chicken for main and it was nothing special .. husband had a steak and it was tough and very bland .. not even offered dessert menu .. won’t be back

Myself and my partner went here on Hogmanay last night! Absolutely outstanding from the lovely table decor to the lovely staff. We had a great time, will definitely return when in St Andrews

We chose this restaurant for a Christmas Eve lunch for the start of our family Christmas celebrations. It is usually the only time once a year that we all come together. The food was superb, the menu choice was excellent, drinks delightful, and were were very well attended to, without it being over powering or fussy. The restaurant allowed and accommodated well behaved dogs, which is useful when you have a group of 6 adults who want to share time together, and not be held back by having to return home because of pets. Being in the heart of St Andrews, a meander around the shops before of after lunch was perfect. I would visit again in a heart beat.

I had the mussels to start which were incredible. I then had a medium rib eye steak which was one of the best I’ve ever eaten. I have now eaten at the Adamson twice and will return each time I am in St Andrews, the place has a great vibe abs superb food.

Food was very good but we were served the wrong wine and when we asked for a dirty spoon to be replaced we didn't get one back. Small issues but equally very easily avoided.

The only people that think this place is good are the same people that derive orgasmic pleasure from buying designer stuff while shoving it in the face of others (without understanding what a low status signal that is) and posting pictures of their fancy food (Yeah I review stuff and yeah I post on my Instagram - I only post pictures of my friends). This isn't terrible food for the money. It is literally just terrible food. Stay away.

Incredible restaurant with flavorful dishes and efficient service. Cozy ambiance and kind staff make it perfect for family dinners or date nights. Highly recommend the signature dishes!

Food and service absolutely out standing. Staff incredibly attentive. Steak cooked perfectly. Highly recommend to all.

Cocktails are amazing. Staff behind the bar are great. Friendly and happy to help. Manager is ignorant and would rather look his nose down you for asking for a better playlist as the music is very instrumental which can kill a vibe within seconds.

I was a very sad vegan at the end of the night. We went for our anniversary dinner, I called up in advance to ask some questions about the vegan options on the menu, and I was told that the butternut squash was "a decent portion, you won't be disappointed" But it was probably about 400 calories ( being generous, with the oil and sauce) as there is ~ 200 calories in a whole butter squash. I think if I had maybe two or three times more I would be ok, and I do understand that nice restaurants generally have smaller portions, but when they have vegan items on the menu they don't fully consider how little the person would be eating. Meat and cheese are a lot more calorie dense, so having the small portions can still be filling, but just having a small handful of roasted vegetables, it happens too often when I got to a nice place. I am still very grateful that there are vegan options, but it's just sad when the option leaves you so disappointed you almost want to cry. The staff were polite but not friendly, and the manager was on top of everything, she does watch everything and does everything she can to. She was not the person I spoke to when making the booking, and the person who has booked on the phone was not there as well during the night.

Incredibly bizarre and unsatisfying experience. We were disappointed by the food but even more shocked by the response of the staff. Regulars in St Andrews, we were looking forward to be finally trying out The Adamson for a special occasion for a family of five. When the food came to say that it was tasteless would be an understatement. The prawn linguine was plainer than what you would serve to a child. The pasta wasn’t even cooked in salted water, tasted of plain butter. The prawns were plain, cooked separately and placed on top, rather than being incorporated to give flavour. Everyone at the table was so puzzled, we didn’t know how to approach the situation, as it was so unexpected. The waitress came to check on us, but as we were about to explain the situation, she assumed the best, without waiting on our response and as we stopped and told her that the dish was inedible, she proceeded to be completely checked out, never apologised, took the plates and left. We were never approached by anyone else, actively avoided by everyone for the rest of the evening. We paid our bill and left and will never be back again. Would never recommend this place to anyone.

Went for lunch with friends and was disappointed. The menu was poor and expensive for what was on offer. The food was good and the service was fine too, but despite the nice surroundings, we won’t be in a hurry to return. Nothing special.

Best steak I have been served in a long time.

Just in time to try an oyster (my first one in my entire life) and some olives. A nice place but had a devil of a time trying to wash my hands in the restroom as I couldn't figure the faucets at first.

My sister and I enjoyed a fabulous cocktail masterclass at The Physician on 25th August. It was a really enjoyable experience in what is a beautiful cocktail bar. Our server Emma was so knowledgeable and made sure that we chose the best cocktails for our tastes. We were made to feel so welcome and it was such fun to unleash our inner Tom Cruise behind the bar! We'll definitely be back! Oh, and the cocktails were delicious...

Really gorgeous and flavourful food with attentive and helpful service to match. Really makes an event of an evening. I will most definitely be back.

We ate dinner in the Physician Bar at the Adamson. We had a fantastic meal, and the staff were great. The owner made sure that we were all satisfied with our meal, and made excellent recommendations for food and drinks.

Cadre et services agreables , petite terrasse dehors. Les plats principaux sont en moyenne à 35 pounds mais sans aucun accompagnement que vous devrez rajouter. En plus service non compris et sur la note on vous rajoutera une “ donation”…. Alors note tres salée

Having eaten at The Adamson multiple times in the last few years and always thoroughly enjoying our food, today's visit was extremely disappointing. We went for my husband's birthday lunch and chose the Sunday beef roast. On arrival the food looked nice and well presented, but on closer inspection, the beef was quite frankly, inedible. Very fatty, so tough it was hard to cut with the steak knife provided, and had a horrible, rubbery texture. The flavour wasn't nice either, and the meat was lukewarm. The accompanying potatoes, veg and Yorkshire pudding did look nice, but the beef was so bad that we sent our meals back. This isn't something I do lightly when dining out, but we couldn't eat what was served. We asked to order something else instead, and based on the quality of the beef we had, we weren't too confident to order any steaks or beef based items (despite enjoying the Chateaubriand in the past) which make up most of the menu, if you don't eat seafood. We thought we would play it safe and go with fish and chips, but that has been replaced with fish goujons and chips on the menu, which seems like more of a kids meal. This was edible on arrival but the fish was greasy and served with a meagre portion of mushy peas, although the fries and tartare sauce were good. We had ordered a side of mac and cheese with our roasts, which we ate as we waited for our second meals. We used to love the mac and cheese here and rarely visited without having some, but this time it was bland and the sauce really runny. We were grateful that we were able to order something else to replace the roasts, and our re-order did arrive quickly, but the service was limited and nobody checked in to see if our food was OK as we ate (even the first time, I had to walk over to the bar to get someone's attention). This was extremely disappointing considering the reputation and price point of this establishment. I am a believer in 'you get what you pay for' and I've happily paid the prices here in the past for quality food and good service. However, based on today's experience, I don't think the food and service provided equates to the prices charged here. I wouldn't return here, unless there is a vast improvement in future.

Walked-in on a busy Sunday and got a table for 3 at the bar side, the Physician. They were playing good 80’s music and made great cocktails. Food was all very yummy; we had mussels, fish’n’chips and prawn linguini and cheese for afters. A nice affordable btl of Vinho Verde and a couple of cocktails too! All for under 140£ Service was quick, friendly and professional.

Lovely welcome from the staff . The food we ordered was delicious although a bit pricey for what we received. The choice of beer a bit limited . Asked for wine and received a large glass at £10 a glass. Wasn't given a choice of smaller more affordable glass. A cheeky charitable donation is added to your bill with no explanation as to where it goes. All in all a great night but not quite 5 stars because of previously mentioned comments. Five stars though to Jocelyn our waitress . She was fantastic .

Great food , great atmosphere and great staff ,worth the visit

We paid £89 for this Chateaubriand meant for two people! Absurd. Also the wait staff do not get an equal share of the tips when the customer pays on card, most of the tips goto management. This place is akin to any common chain, I'm not sure why they charge so much.

Upon entering "The Adamson," my wallet gave a nervous shudder, as if it knew it was about to enter a diet program. The menu, an ode to minimalism, featured the chateaubriand as the pièce de resistance at 87 GBP. This culinary unicorn was so elusive on the plate, I was half-convinced it was a figment of my imagination. The chateaubriand, priced as if it were a rare gem, was presented with a fanfare that seemed to compensate for its Lilliputian size. Each bite was a fleeting whisper of flavor, a tease to the taste buds that left them yearning for more substance. The staff at "Adamson" were the true stars of the evening. Their smiles were as genuine as the puzzlement I felt when I learned that when I wanted to tip by card, only a fraction find its way to them. It seems that in the world of electronic payments, tips are like socks in a dryer – they mysteriously disappear. In conclusion, dining at "The Adamson" is an experience that's heavy on charm and light on the stomach. The chateaubriand might not weigh down your plate, but the staff's delightful demeanor will certainly anchor your heart. A gentle reminder to all: when tipping, cash is king, lest your appreciation vanish into the digital void.

Good food but service was poor, the food arrived before the drinks

I recently ate at the Adamson while on vacation in Spain with my cousin Derek. I thought the food was good, but I felt like the management doesn't treat the staff very well. Management must remember that treating staff well is the key to the success of a business. Juan

We dropped by for a quick pint and some nibbles after visiting St Andrews. We were the only ones in their outdoor seating area which felt a bit weird since nearby places were mobbed, but it was fine for us. Their beer selection is very limited, with only a handful of boring beers available so -1 star for that. The nibbles we got were fairly pricy so figured we'd get decent portions, but they were tiny, so -1 star again. The service was friendly though and the nibbles were tasty so it wasn't all bad. Overall an ok experience, but I'm not sure I'd drop by again.

The Adamson never disappoints! Had a wonderful meal on Saturday night. The service was excellent and the food divine. We had the halibut, the lamb and the fish and chips and everything was so tasty and expertly cooked. Desserts were the chocolate mousse and the strawberry cheesecake and those were also so good. This is the 3rd or 4th time I've been to The Adamson and I've never had a bad experience. Can't recommend highly enough.

My husband and I just had lunch here and absolutely loved it. Greeted in a friendly manner, lovely waiting staff and Food absolutely delicious. We were hesitant to book here as very mixed reviews but so glad we did. Definitely be back

Maybe lunch is not the best time to visit, very quiet and lacked atmosphere but the restaurant is pleasant enough. Food was OK, very small portion of halibut but nicely cooked, mussel veloute was tasty and i think it was a Kohlrabi garnish too, sadly that hadn't even been blanched and was inedible - server pleasant enough but no chat, just doing her job.

Beautiful place and excellent menu. Steak tartare was good, quite spicy. Main course - chateau briand - was ok. We had a nice evening!

We decided to come to this restaurant as we had drinks there when last in St Andrews. The place looks sophisticated and polished, good quality wine. I started with the Steak Tartare, it is one of the best I have tasted, a great version, with a little siracha heat, garlic ketchup and baby capers, absolutely delicious. My husband had lamb for his main, a Dick Turpin rip off, 2 tiny slices of lamb, not even a potato or veg on the plate, shocking for £32.95. I ordered the halibut, it was over cooked, easy to do as it was the tiniest portion I have ever seen in a restaurant, again £32.95. My son’s linguine was bland, needed an anchovy and more garlic in there to give it a bit of umami depth. Although the staff were lovely, considerate and polite, they don’t read the room, waited 10 minutes to grab their attention, too much casual banter ….more training needed. Overall over priced, not good value for money Former Lecturer in Hospitality and Tourism

First class food and service. Good wines by the glass too. The scallop starter and lamb main course were excellent, although some carbs with the lamb would improve the dish in my view. The only reason it’s not a 5 star review is the music volume. We had lunch here a few months back on a quiet day and had to ask for it to be reduced ( which in fairness it was right away). We thought then it was just that it seemed louder because the restaurant was quiet but it was the same this time, and arguably a little worse in that the music level kept changing. Maybe some patrons enjoy music this loud but for us it just really isn’t in keeping with the high end feeling achieved in all other aspects. Otherwise a really good experience we’d look forward to repeating.

Great looking place. £13 for a whiskey sour is quite frankly ridiculous.

Charming atmosphere and good food. Elegant service and price in line with the hospitality. Friendly staff. Suggested.

Back to its brilliant best! Drinks, steaks & service were all incredible. Great night all round…looking forward to going back.

Fantastic experience at the Adamson. Staff very attentive and food fantastic. Would certainly return in the future. First class service

After being refused a previous booking elsewhere for having our dog with us the Adamson were more than accommodating at the last minute. Food and staff were excellent. A welcomed edition to St Andrews- whether you’re looking for something casual or a bit more high end-there’s something to suit every taste. Highly recommended and look forward to returning. Thank you!

We (four golfers) enjoyed a wonderful dining experience on Thursday which was the last night of our trip to St Andrews. The food was delicious - perfectlty cooked staks - and we benefitted from the Thursday chateaubriand "deal". The warm and friendly service added to our enjoyment. We will be back.

Great venue trendy interior, buzzing atmosphere. Wide selection of cocktails and drinks. Friendly and attentive staff, Abi in particular is a fantastic team member.

My wife and I went for lunch and to be honest we won’t be back. For the price we paid the menu was very disappointing and if you have any food allergies then I would probably avoid as the choice is vey limited.

Overall a disappointing dining experience. Tasteless, dry and overcooked. Two fillet steaks, one ordered medium-rare and one medium. Both came out medium to well. Most dry and tasteless cut of fillet I have experienced. Truffle fries didn’t appear to have even been drizzled with any truffle oil. Based on personal experience it was a waste of money and I certainly wouldn’t return.

Great meal out with family.Colouring sheets for kids with their own menu on back.Great meal and very friendly helpful staff.Music a bit loud.

The foods really good VERY EXPENSIVE The decoration is an interesting style (not In a good way) Way too loud

This is an amazing restaurant. The service was excellent - the staff were so friendly. Food was really good and the atmosphere was great. Would definitely recommend a visit. We will be coming back when we next visit St Andrews.

Superb wood pigeon starter and perfectly spiced king prawn and chorizo linguine, the only downside of this lovely restaurant was the volume of the music. Far from being background music, it made talking and listening quite difficult and we felt it was aimed more at the staff than the customers. Apart from that, excellent service and delicious food, but like the wine list, a little on the pricey side.

Had a lovely time at this restaurant. Food was excellent. Best I’ve had in a long time. I had the pigeon and venison both were amazing great flavours and cooking. Had Blue Murder for dessert and they gave me a candle and happy birthday on the plate. Very nice service and good atmosphere. Then went through to bar at the back which was very nice. Can’t recommend enough.

The worst meal ever in St Andrews. Calamari sent back twice. Prawn linguini at £30, 4 prawns and pasta was tasteless. £3 for tap water that was put on the table without being asked.

This review relates to the bar forming part of Adamson’s called The Physician. We arrived mid afternoon for some cocktails. I should have brought a book to read. We had to wait an eternity before our drinks were delivered. Interestingly, a table of four adjacent to us opted to leave as they were fed up waiting to place an order. There appeared to plenty of polite, cheery staff in the premises so goodness knows why service is unacceptably slow.

I’ve always loved the Adamson for cocktails & food. Although my latest visit I felt the restaurant menu is extremely basic now and overpriced for what it is. It would be nice to see specials or more choice. Over £80 for bread, a drink each...

Exceptional service, cocktail choice and mouth-watering cuisine. Visited the upgraded cocktail bar, The Physician… great vibe in the bar which was very busy, even at 6pm.

Abi was a wonderful waitress! She served us cocktail trees and some yummy snacks. 10/10 highly recommend! Amazing service by Abi!

Amazing service from Abi! Highly recommend, amazing drinks, great service and snacks! So much fun def a great spot to visit in st Andrew’s for a night out!

Very expensive for the quantity they give

Great service from the team meant a relaxed meal - attentive without being at all overpowering. Dealt excellently with a slight muddle over when starters were brought to the table. Food was excellent - calamari and bread for starters, prawn linguine and fish'n'chips for main,...

What is rare about this restaurant is that it does the standards, burgers/fish and chips, but also some more non mainstream scottish dishes. Example being they had a really good burns menu last night. A good range of food and atmosphere,

Had quite a disappointing experience at the Adamsen last night while out to dinner with my boyfriend. We both ordered the burger and when they arrived the buns were completely stale, and the burger patty was chewy and burnt. For an £80 dinner, this was quite disappointing. When we politely complained about the quality of the food, the manager was sent over and asked what we wanted her to do about it. They did kindly offer to compensate a free dessert, however considering my burger was not eaten and was frankly inedible, I would have really appreciated not being charged for that item instead. However, the cocktails were good, and the staff were very kind.

Me and boyfriend had the best time tonight, we were served by possibly the nicest and sweetest woman ever. She recommended my boyfriend a really nice wine to go with his steak which went down an absolute treat! Her name was Louisa, credit where it’s due! Give her a bloody pay rise :P Xx

Ordered water and drinks for the table, had to wait 35 minutes for both to arrive! Like all place the prices here have increased, but £45 for a steak!!! No fries or sauce with that. As prices have increase portion size has dropped. My wife...

While eating duck, I chewed on something that looked like a strange metal and when I asked about it, they said it was a bullet fragment and that it was a common occurrence. I think they said it was something they caught hunting, but even though it was a common occurrence in this restaurant, we were really surprised, but the explanation of the male employee, whether it was a waiter or a manager, was absurd and he said 'that could happen' and left without even saying sorry. A great restaurant that cooks even bullet fragments, whether wild duck is more delicious or not. The mussel dish wasn't seasoned properly and I couldn't eat it all, so I asked for it to be packed, and the waitress brought it to me, but when I came back empty-handed, she said that I couldn't pack it according to restaurant regulations. And they didn't even bring me the food I brought. I also lost the chance to eat the leftover food. I calculated it to be approximately 290 pounds for two people, but there is no reason to recommend it considering the price. Among the restaurants in St.Andrews University, it is a very expensive place. Above all, the customer service is not very friendly and the price is not appropriate for the taste or quality of the food. However, the restaurant looks a bit luxurious, so it seems like it's a restaurant that people come to once in a while. At least the salad and dessert are worth eating. I visited this restaurant twice. The first time was delicious, so I came the second time and the food wasn't as good as the previous time. While eating duck, I chewed on something that looked like a strange metal piece and when I asked about it, they said it was a bullet fragment and that it was a common occurrence in this place ,we were really surprised , because we almost ate metal bullet fragment from duck.

A great restaurant that cooks even bullet fragments, whether wild duck is more delicious or not!! The mussel dish wasn't seasoned properly and we couldn't eat it all, so I asked for it to be packed, and the waitress took it, later came back Empty-Handed(after I paid bill) and she said that I couldn't 't pack it according to restaurant regulations.

Lovely food, great service. Enjoyed that there were good interesting fish/ veggie options. Had a great night and particularly appreciated not at any point feeling rushed by the waiters.

Went to have dinner with a large group of friends. They accommodated us easily and provided great service throughout the night. They even took a photo of us.

I've been here in the past and always enjoyed it. However, I would describe it as almost scandalously poor value now. Ordered the rib-eye steak at £36.95 and have a look at the size of it. It's tiny and about 1cm thick. It comes with...

Popped in here for lunch and the staff and environment are nice. The food was pretty poor so would likely only return for a drink.

Top class cocktail bar AND restaurant !!!!

We got seated by a lovely waitress in the cocktail bar that we reserved. It did take about 30 minutes to get our cocktail. 3 very under filled and the fourth was quite disgusting! Blue suede shoes! We requested the very under filled cocktails to be filled up which they kindly did do. Very nice place with a good atmosphere but the cocktails were not to the standard hoped.

Lovely meal. Steak was excellent. Burgers and chicken salad amazing. Great service.

Expensive. But great drinks and ambiance and helpful friendly staff.

Went in yesterday for cocktails for our daughters 18th birthday. There was 7 of us and a member of staff saw us arrive but didn’t acknowledge us in any way. After 20 minutes of sitting in an empty bar and no staff in the bar area atal we left.

After three days, we finally found an excellent steak. Good Angus beef and properly cooked medium rare. Enjoyed all the food and the cocktails. Shame they were out of Drambuie. This is where we will eat when we're visiting. Very good service for Scotland.

Not very impressed, food average, think its overpriced.

Was a really nice night. Thanks to one of the waitresses Abi, who was incredibly nice and efficient which made a really easy night. I would definitely recommend going here as the food was phenomenal, especially when the waitresses were so kind.

Julie the owner is hospitable and welcoming. I love this Friday night weekend wind down. The most delicious cocktail trees for the end of the week tap out. Thank you to The Adamson! X

Somewhat limited menu, but all worth it for perhaps the best STP (sticky toffee pudding) in all of the UK.

4 of us were seated in the Bar, no reservations allowed, after dining and drinking, we were told we had 10 minutes to vacate, as they needed our table. We had just paid the bill, 300 lbs, and were still finishing our drinks. Meanwhile, the table next to us was occupied by 2 people who were sharing a glass of wine when we arrived, and were still sharing it, and not a word to them. I will never grace these doors again. there are too many good service options.

This was our first time here and we’ll certainly return. The food and ambience were all fantastic but what really stood out for us was the excellent customer service and the rapport that our waitress had with our daughter and the stops that were pulled...
