The Plumpy Duck in Renfrewshire

Lovely lunch in a very relaxed atmosphere. ORLA, in the restaurant and Megan, who gave us a tour of the function rooms went out of their way to make this a very pleasant visit. Friendly and helpful staff. Would recommend a visit

Very tasty food. Service is outstanding.

We visited the restaurant on the Saturday the 9th March 1pm. We were a party of 4, 3 which were vegan. My mum chose fish & chips. We had asked if the soup was vegan which it was (fab) Most aren't? The sandwich selection had no vegan option, when we asked they checked with chef & we had options which was great. We love soup & a sandwich at lunch.The soup & sandwiches came out, cheese & tomato & cheese & pickle with a lovely portion of homemade coleslaw & side salad which was really appreciated. Usually it's just left off because they don't have vegan coleslaw. So this was just lovely, we also got a small tub of (v ) mayonnaise too.lovely to dip our chips in. We also got vegan puddings which were delicious 😋 Thank-you so much for providing vegan options. Our chef was luke, he deserves a gold star for going above & beyond. 🌟 The restaurant was very busy & he still went out his way. Thank-you to all staff who were serving that day too. So helpful & with a lovely smile. Well done team Bowfield! We will be back. 😊😘

Searched for somewhere different to eat, and found the Plumpy Duck, great food, service and very reasonable prices, BUT! Card only which I hate!!! Which puts us off going back, sorry 😞

We've been members of Bowfield for a while and usually use the cafe but thought we'd use the restaurant today. Went in, empty apart from two tables, waited by the door but no staff around so took a seat at a table. Waitress with long blond hair, looked like she was the manager, approached and asked if we'd booked, we said we hadn't and asked, "Do we need to?" We were told, "Well yes." We said OK we'd just go back to the cafe and were told, "No it's ok we can seat you but you can't sit at this table you'll need to move as it's set for an afternoon tea." The table had 4 cups on it... would have been easier to lift the 4 cups than ask us all to move seats. We moved to the next table and sat for 5-10 mins with 3 waitresses standing at the side, not bothering to bring us any menus or acknowledge us. We got up and went back in to the cafe. The waitress who had been speaking to us then came in to the cafe and stood talking to a few women for the majority of time we were in eating our lunch. Pretty poor customer service, not very friendly and felt very unwelcome, especially considering the place was empty bar two tables. Guess we know why the place was empty if that's how she speaks to people. Would rather stand in the cafe chatting to people than actually serving.

Not the cheapest but being fair restaurants in hotels never are so go in with your eyes open and you'll end up with a happy belly. The food was good and the staff were lovely. Not really much more to say than that

Fantastic food and fast service.

Xmas dinner was good. One small thing though, I was surprised to see one of your waiting staff wearing a Celtic jersey whilst serving food/drinks. Very unprofessional.

Friendly staff, lovely relaxing lunch 💖

Amazing food again! Staff was wonderful and kind. The food was perfect and so much more than what you expect. Will definitely keep going back.

Good food with something for everyone and nice decor (a mix of wood and different fabrics). Staff were very nice as well. Plenty of parking space outside, since it's part of a hotel and spa.

Very nice food choices and helpful staff

Excellent food everytime we go to the bowfield hotel and country club this is our much loved preffered choice to go for something to eat🍴 out. Great success at breakfast lunch and dinner!!! We love to stay within the hotel and relax and just enjoy eating out at this fantastic restaurant.

Nice, but expensive even with a members discount

Great food and service. Located in the Bowfield Hotel and Country Club. Recommend.

Our family had an early dinner around 7 on Monday it wasn’t too busy, the waitress was cheerful and nice, most importantly the food was superb second to nothing, the chef deserves a Mechlin star for the menu, the presentation and off course the food! I had the sea bass and my husband order the day special duck with berries sauce and veg, daughter had breaded haddock. I just wish I had space to order a second main ;-)

Perfect meal . Staff very helpful. Beautiful surroundings.

The food was delicious, and the atmosphere cozy, but the service was dismal. The staff was very friendly, but everything was so slow in arriving. I had to remind the server that I had ordered a soda twice, meeaning that I asked . At the end of our meal, my in-laws ordered coffee. When their coffee came, I ordered tea and my husband ordered coffee. After about 10 minutes, I just got up and asked for the bill. Follow up - my husband thought the food was pretty bland and ordinary, and overpriced for what we got. (3 scallops as a starter)

Dirty glasses, average food, lack of basic garnish. Could have been one star but the coffee was nice

Staff very pleasant and helpful and food really good

Food is not great service slow and menu rubbish

Expected better quality and definitely overpriced. However, very nice setting. Partner and I were at the wedding open fair today, which was lovely. Decided to go for a quick lunch. We had 2 baked potatoes with cheese, £14. We opted for extra coleslaw, £4. Minimal cheese. Literally. A sprinkle. And the smallest ramekin of coleslaw. The amount of a tablespoon. £18 for this is excessive. So be it, if there was a lot of cheese and coleslaw, I wouldn’t have been writing this review! Better value for money in the boarding house, half a mile down the road.

Food is delicious and surroundings are stunning. Lovely restaurant.

Shame such a lovely restaurant but food and service let it down

Great service, relaxing atmosphere and very friendly staff.

Intimate atmosphere, good food without being pretentious and good service

Loved it, food tasty, service was great.

Have been to Bowfield for Easter Sunday lunch for the last 3 years but today was disappointing. Lighting so dim over booths nearly impossible to see menu, 20 minutes before our food order was taken, just under the hour before it was served. Starter served after main course, dessert just as hard to get and served without cutlery. Food nice enough but as I was eating with 2 young children more prompt and hassle free service would have been appreciated. Lovely staff.... but sad to say after today we won't be back.

A very tasty burger..... Eventually, however they are very new and so have a few teething problems but very helpful and courteous staff and very willing to rectify any issues, we shall be back.
