The food is fine but the amount of waste created by putting everything into takeaway boxes is less than ideal, especially when everyone is eating outside but within the restaurant premises. There are no recycling facilities so compostable boxes are being mixed with drink cans and plastic lids and paper bags. Three recycling bins would be easy to set up or perhaps going back to using normal plates and cutlery might be better.

I wish I could comment on the food but I can’t as we wanted to sit outside as it was one of those rare days in Scotland where the sun was shining. However we were given the “outside menu” which did not have fish and chips on it (that’s what we wanted) we were told by the guy behind the bar that fish and chip were only served inside. I asked why this was and could we be served the fish and chips outside the response was an abrupt NO! When I asked why I was told it was only served on the “inside menu” !!!! We promptly left with a very bad impression of the establishment and we will not be returning. I suggest that the staff are trained to understand the term FLEXABILITY and customer service

Had team lunch here. Food was okay. Their drinks were very good and refreshing. I got veg. Quesadillas and the tortillas were really crunchy and breaking apart rather than being crispy. Feel it was too dried. I got their Victoria sandwich cake for pudding it was too dry as well. The rest of the team also thought that the food was okay, just short of great. We will be returning though since this could be one off day. But the staff were friendly and location was convenient for us all.

Been a few years since I was last here. Sadly I feel the quality has slipped since a possible change of owner. Portions less. Quality not as it used to be and overpriced. For what it was. The chicken mango and cheese toasted sandwich was as filling as the beef burger for half the price and was way tastier.

We hired a narrowboat on the Union Canal for a week in may 2024. We planned our route specifically to land at The Park Bistro on Wednesday morning at opening time, the forecast was sunny, and we intended to sit outside with our dog and enjoy a full cooked scottish breakfast. What a disappointment. We found a table outside in a lovely sunny position and I went inside to order, only to be told they don't serve full cooked breakfast outside, only inside. So then I enquired if we could take our dog inside so we could enjoy a breakfast. Again the answer was a resounding 'no'. So, sadly we left and made other plans. I cannot give a star rating on 'food' as we didn't get the opportunity to try any. But they were unhelpful and unwelcoming so have scored a one star for service and atmosphere.

We are regulars and We sat outside as it was bookings only, which isn't surprising, however they lost out of many sets of people who got turned away, but I think they need to extend the restaurant to encompass the outdoor seating area and use the concrete side garden for outdoor eating, because they are losing out on customers. The food is lovely, and the service is great. But they need to think bigger and extend their dining hours in the evening at weekends to 9pm to cover renovation costs.

We’ve been to the Park Bistro twice now and it’s been fantastic each time, the food is great quality and all of our dishes have been delicious (*except for the Lemon Meringue Pie which was disappointing with solid meringue and soggy base but I have very high standards as my Mum makes the BEST) The Biscoff Toffee Waffle is epic! The Pork Tenderloin was incredible and everyone enjoyed it both times we’ve been. The staff are friendly even when it’s busy, memorable place.

We always love The Park Bistro. Both dine in and take away are fabulous and the staff and super attentive to meeting your needs with gluten free and other preferences. The take away system online is brilliant - lots of options and collection has always been fabulous. Take away packaging is biodegradable ⭐ Dining in - inside or outside are both great options. Access is easy outside but there is also plenty of accessable space indoors. All food is gorgeous with the different chips to choose from being a favourite! Great options for children too - both dine in and take away. My little boy has a select few places he'll enjoy eating - this is his favourite! Plenty of parking at the restaurant or over the road there is an overflow car park and easy access to the canal for a stroll afterwards. Highly recommended The Park Bistro!

Was here with my parents on Saturday lunchtime, it is a nice location by the canal and was very busy which is always a good sign. There were a couple of mistakes with both our starters and the coffee order but both were quickly rectified. I would say that it is quite expensive for what you get. For example, the haggis ball starter I would expect a minimum of 3 but only got two, there should definitely be less salad, less dip and at least one more haggis ball on the plate. Main was well presented, I had the chicken caesar salad and it was very good, chicken and bacon were nice and warm and the salad had a good sprinkling of parmesan and dressing. The croutons were tasty as well. I had the lemon meringue pie for dessert. It was OK but no better than what you could pick up at the supermarket for £5 less.

Amazing place for a bite or a drink! Great atmosphere + friendly staff. Delicious food with vegan options! Stopped for a burger and fries and enjoyed them outdoors - they have a huge tent or lots of tables in the sunshine if you want to stock up on all the vit D you can get, when the sun's finally out! Or you can enjoy the cosy atmosphere inside when the weather turns - Nice views of the canal. Came here on my 🏍️ while out and about in the area but definitely planning to stop here again when on a bicycle ride, next. Saved in my faves on maps 🤘🏻

We visited here at the weekend, we used to go here years ago and loved it. Although the venue has been done up since we last visited the menu has went down hill. We visited with our daughter who only wanted a little cheese sandwich. I asked for this and was told they couldnt make that, we would have to order the grilled cheese bun with bacon and asked for it to be ungrilled and no bacon…. What came was a disgrace, a dry brioche bun with 2 slice of cheese (the shiny plastic type). The cheese wasnt even put inside the dry bun, it was placed to the side. It came with some chips, we were charged £6.50 for this which is shocking. My partner ordered haggis bon bon starter which was only 2 small bon bons. He also ordered fish and chips which came microwaved peas and no sauce. My meal, the grilled cajun chicken was probably the only meal that we had no complaints about and was nice. Our desserts were really nice but my scone was tiny! We were charged £65 for everything. The service was really lovely but sadly we wont ever be back.

I got married here in April 2022, from the first meeting Stuart couldn't have been more helpful, we asked for some last minute amends to meals, no issue, there were spare meals on the day due to people not turning up and he dished them out much to my Grandad's delight who put away 6 courses in the end! We also had two guests who were vegan and again, not an issue. We had so many compliments on the food, it was absolutely delicious. We had Razmataz occasions doing the decor/running the day- Andy and Stuart work like a dream team - our day was absolutely perfect. With the two of them in charge, it felt like an expensive hotel wedding but at a fraction of the cost. We were fortunate enough for the weather to be nice so we were able to get out onto the golf course for pictures, Stuart got us a couple of buggies and took us round. The golfers were so kind to let us disturb a couple of their games to let us take pictures. A great venue, with beautiful surroundings and a fantastic team.

After arriving at the coffee shop at 3.30, told that they were closing in half an hour, and if we wanted to sit outside, the tables and chairs would be removed soon, so they could only do take away. That was ok, we only wanted three coffees. Sorry we came in when we did, in hindsight we maybe should have gone to one of the many other coffee shops in Linlithgow, and spent our money there - and sorry for asking how to pronounce the word Neuk.

Terrible experience. Facebook page said it opened at 11am, it didn’t open until 12, the closed sign stayed on the door until the 4th customer entered and asked if it was open. Took 20mins to get a coffee although we were the only people there. I ordered all day breakfast plus size (extra £3) but the menu didn’t say what you get for an extra £3. It was one piece of haggis & one piece of black pudding, both weren’t great. Sausage was cheap, the egg was overcooked and crispy on the bottom, beans were watery, bacon ok. I asked for toast. It came on top of the breakfast which made it soggy, i had to ask for butter and a side plate for the toast, i got possibly stork, it certainly wasn’t butter, i had to ask for the plate twice. Still only two of us to serve. The salad roll was ok, the coleslaw wasn’t coleslaw, it was chopped up lettuce & cucumber with mayo. It came to £22.00 Not worth the money, service was poor although it was a nice setting. I paid with cash (2x £20 notes) they didn’t have change. I was given £8.00 change and informed the staff i was £10 short. They didn’t have anymore change in the till. Between two staff to ‘mustered’ up a £10.00 note between them. Really really poor you cannot it right (never mind wrong a few times) with two staff for only two customers. I wouldn’t go back if the food was free.
