The Pittentrail Inn in Highland

Food well below par in both quality and quantity( lots of red cabbage though). The premises, although freshly decorated by the looks of it , felt cold and empty.

Booked in here to try out the newly re-opened restaurant. We had booked a table for 12.30 but when we arrived the booking had been entered for 1,30. Not a problem as we were the only people there. The restaurant was bright and newly painted but looked a little bare and stark, a few more pictures or plants around the place would brighten it up. We decided to sit in the conservatory as it was a lovely sunny day , but we had a long wait before the waitress came to take our drinks order. It wasn't until she brought these that she then brought a menu for us to look at. It was a small menu of a Sunday lunch option and a couple of other choices and a pizza menu. Again it was a long wait before our starter arrived , the baked brie was good as was the soup but the rolls with it were hard and overcooked and one burnt. Again another wait for lunch, we had all gone for various options of Sunday lunch. It was pretty average, three types of sliced meat , new potatoes & roast potatoes ( TBH it only really needed one type) and veg. It also came with a cauliflower cheese but the sauce was so watery it was like milk and the cauli was quite hard. The meal was ok but not a lot of flavour and we decided not to go for a dessert. The bill was £84 ( which included 3 soft drinks and a glass of wine) which maybe was a little pricy for what it was.. We later heard that they have recently lost their chef so hopefully it may improve with new staff.
