The Camperdown Elm has both a nice decor and atmosphere coupled with good and friendly service. Whilst the lunch special has a limited menu the food chosen was good, tasty and came out hot.

Was here tonight for the 1st time in a long time and it will certainly be the last. The fish was absolutely vile, the service may be good but the food is a big let down. Would not recommend this place to anyone that has taste buds

I usually visits the Camperdown Elm with acouple of my woofs usually for a roast Sunday lunch which I absolutely love! I love the attention to details for the dogs and the Roast dinners are delicious. My most recent visit however was for an early festive meal with friends. The restaurant was decked out beautiful festive, the turkey dinner was huge and very good. We all loved the festive decorations on our desserts (it's the little details). We had a lovely evening and look forward to seeing you all again soon. Wishing 'The Camperdown Elm' a fabulous festive season xx

My dad was not one for changing where he ate so getting him here was not easy but now that he's been this is now his new favourite. Amazing service from start to finish and the food and price were excellent. Plenty space to park for free and plenty room inside and out, if it's a nice day.

Fantastic visit as usual. The team are very welcoming and always willing to have a chat. I am Lactose Intolerant and my friend suffers from Celiac. The crew at ‘the elm’ were very accommodating and ensured our needs were met. The meal was prepped to a fantastic standard and a high quality. (We highly recommend the Hunters Chicken, without the cheese if you are lactose). Big thanks to Charlie, Liam & Erin for being such accommodating and friendly hosts for the evening.

Only been in for drinks but it’s a really nice environment. Love taking my dog there. It’s nice to have somewhere she’s welcomed and not just tolerated. Charlie is lovely and really hospitable and my canine buddy loves her dog bar. That being said as well, the dogs are allowed in the bar area and there’s a whole lounge/restaurant that’s separated so if you are not a dog lover you can eat in peace!

Staff were very warm and welcoming. Service was brilliant. Staff came and checked back with us to make sure we were ok. Our server whose name i'm not sure of went and got a few pictures for my son to colour in and at the end of our meal he helped to pin them on the wall. Our little one was delighted to see his artwork on the wall. The food we had was delicious and fantastic value. Will 100% be planning a return visit

When we arrived the pleasant young waitress took us to our table. We asked to move as the table was very central to the restaurant and I prefer a less visible place to eat, just the way I am. There was no hesitation on her behalf and she offered us a more private table setting. She took our drink order there and after about 5 minutes her colleague arrived with the drinks and we gave our food order. So far so good. My father had a steak and I had the scampi and we were also offered a lovely bread. All of the food was at the correct temperature and was so well set out and tasted excellent. We both cleared our plates and finished the meal off with some coffees. A wonderful eating place which I hope more people use. Well done to all concerned.

Myself and my partner brought the grandkids for lunch. Food was fresh and tasty, reasonably priced and staff members Charlie & Erin were very friendly. The gluten free menu was fab too. Another positive note and certainly a point to bring us back was after our meals the kids played pool and went out to the play equipment. At no point were we rushed away or felt we'd over stayed out welcome. Great place for families.

The food was terrible, I honestly have never had food so bad when eating out and I absolutely love pub food. I ordered the steak pie, I was shocked to discover it was pretty much a pukka pie from Asda that I do in the air fryer at home. The mashed potatoes I'm pretty sure was smash or the equivalent. The person I was dining with had what looked like fries to go and half the bowl was cold, half was warm. Will not be returning.

Visited here today for some lunch. Sadly very dissapointed. Ordered sweet potato and chickpea curry. When it came potato chunks were still stone cold. Sent back to be reheated and when it arrived was all stuck to the inside of the curry bowl. Pure black underneath. Poppadoms soft . Husband ordered the beef pie chips and veg which was to be glazed carrots ,green beans mange tout and peas. Was advised after ordering that they had no vegetables apart from garden peas which my husband doesn't like. Ordered hunters chicken instead with chips and because no veg it was replaced with what they called salad which was a half of bag of lettuce leaves. No tomatoes, no cucumber, no peppers or sald drizzle . Shocking. Chicken slightly overcooked and tough .Chef obviously had a bad day if there was an actual chef on. Standard of food very very poor. They couldn't even get the drinks correct. Asked for one cube of ice in cold drink but came filled with ice.The waiter was very apologetic about the whole experience and very nice. But overall experience disappointed and not value for money at almost fifteen pound per meal .Although they only charged half price for the cold curry. Afraid we won't be back

Had a most enjoyable meal this afternoon. Friendly staff excellent service. Despite this, I asked if I could have some side salad with my Scampi. The salad was not on the menu with the Scampi but the waiter said I could have it. The salad which was only a small bowl of lettuce, no cucumber tomato etc. Only when I paid the bill did I notice I had been charged £2:99 for the salad, which I felt was totally ridiculous for a small bowl of lettuce only.

Drinks and main meals were brought out within a decent time of ordering and were all tasty and good value. Unfortunately there was a long wait for our desserts but they were worth waiting for, and the server did apologise for the delay. Competitively priced.

We were celebrating a birthday, and the team left a card on the table and offered a free desert - what a gesture! They even have a doggy menu available - safe to say our wee man was in food heaven 😂 You’ve got such a welcoming team, showed us to our table, greeted our dog, and just made the whole experience relaxing and enjoyable.

Good pub style restaurant with a great selection on the menu.

The service has been consistently good and I have always found staff friendly and helpful. On this occasion Elysa gave us a friendly welcome and was very good with my six year old daughter. She was given a colouring activity and crayons. Elysa was also attentive and took on some feedback well for passing to management for one of the dishes. The kids play area is also a hit and it’s a convenient stop when travelling through Dundee.

Staff member was friendly and premises is dog friendly which is the only reason for giving two rating instead of 1. The food was really poor and not any better than a wetherspoon type place. We were actually embarrassed that we took visiting family members there. The quality of dishes we ordered certainly did not match the prices. Thick stodgy microwave mash, overcooked & unseasoned vegetables- wasn’t even served with the correct vegetables as described on menu as accompanied with mange tout, beans and honey glazed carrots but all dishes arrived with the same overcooked green beans & peas. The pan seared sea bass was soggy and barely scrapped average. Chicken mushroom pie was soggy/stodgy (suspect microwaved) and there was no taste of a cider gravy as described. It also came with a pot of what was meant to be gravy but it was just a thick lumpy jelly. The fish was off as the fryer for it was broken… Can’t really understand the good reviews. We definitely have no intentions of returning and wouldn’t recommend!

We came here on Saturday evening for the first time with three of our four children. Booked a table online for 7.45pm, which in no way seems late to me for a Saturday evening. Arrived a few minutes early. We were shown to our table by a perfectly nice young man, who said, before we even sat down, 'Just so you know, the kitchen is closing in a few minutes, so I'll be back in a minute to take your orders'. Immediately we felt under a lot of pressure, which isn't what you want when eating out. Then, about a minute later, he came back to the table and said 'just so you know, if you're wanting to order starters these will come out at the same time as your mains due to time constraints in the kitchen'. Given that we absolutely didn't want to have everything brought out at once, with mains getting cold whilst we ate starters, we passed on starters altogether, which we otherwise would definitely have been ordering. We'd had a long day having travelled from Ayrshire to visit a relative in hospital and were looking to fill up before making the journey back home again. It was obvious the kitchen staff were knocking off at 8pm, but I'm sorry, you shouldn't be offering a 7.45pm slot on your website if you can't offer guests a full dining experience. As it was the food we ordered was nice, and the service was also good, but it was a really poor first experience. Will we be back ? Maybe. But definitely not at 7.45pm.

Food was hot and tasty. Drinks were good, though a bit pricey! Service was timely, though not pushy. My one criticism would be cleanliness. Bits of food from previous diners on the floor around the table. Table felt sticky. Like it had been wiped with a dirty cloth. I moved the condiments box and it took considerable force as it was stuck to the table. I think cleaning should be given more attention!

Don't know what happened to this place. Used to be excellent. Certainly isn't now. Food poor. The fun welcoming atmosphere absolutely gone. Having to go up to the till and order and pay each time you want another coffee ( or anything else) is a pain. Why can't it just be table service? Servers not all bad but they are not great either. They used to be excellent. Very disappointed with my last few visits. Time to go elsewhere.

Brought my parents to The Selkie for lunch and we had a super meal. Mum had soup and sandwich with delicious salmon, and the rest of us had tapas options. The food was delicious. Some also had lovely cocktails and others enjoyed the wine. I’ve been before on three different occasions with my partner and with friends and whether for coffee and brunch or a tapas meal the food, drinks and service have always been superb. Great wee eatery.
