The Rule Pub Diner in Fife

Great atmosphere and great for our kids, they were welcome to play about and enjoy pool! Lovely staff very accommodating thank you!

Great place for quality beer and nachos. Friendly staff and baby friendly, unlike some other pubs nearby.

Omar was first class with us! We ended up not moving on from here all night. We were only initially using this as a meeting place but stayed all night. 100% reccomend. Great selection and not a single bad pint all night.

Came in with my many friends this week and was made room by Robyn. She made some bloody lovely cocktails and even gave us her recommendations on what food we should order. Was such a lovely atmosphere especially with Robyn’s big smile. Was also a great place to bring my black lab Brooklyn. Big big thank you to the rule and the one and only Robyn 🤟

Robyn, Carly and Rachael had the best service ever!

Had a great afternoon, our server Robyn was fantastic!!

Great pub with amazing service, Robyn was very sweet and accommodating plus made some lovely cocktails.

Had a lovely meal and cocktails in The Rule. Served by Robyn who was FAB and made the perfect Aperol Spritz cocktails for us!

Was a great service lovely food we had the pleasure of being served by robyn who was funny and polite

Very friendly place great space and happy to accommodate dogs defo recommended

Big shout out to Louise who found space for a big group of us when a lot more people than expected turned up for our booking! She made our night ☺️

Mixer app got me a free drink!!! Defo recommend

Terrible avocado toast. The avocado wasn't ripe & when I told the wait staff, no apology, just that the kitchen will be informed!

Amazing bar staff great pub love it

James is amazing with customer service, love the rule.

James was absolutely great, made us feel very welcome and comfortable at the rule. I absolutely recommend!!

Visited with friends for a boozy brunch. Staff were very attentive. Food was great and cocktails were amazing. Great value for money.

The Rule is great! We came in for drinks and ended up on the Boozy Brunch(£33 for a large brunch dish and 6 cocktails!) deal which is amazing value! Great food-pub grub done really well and Beverly big portions. Cocktails were fab-potent and came with the garnishes you don’t always get on deals like this. Above all the service was outstanding. We were asked frequently if we needed anything, if we needed our next drink and the girls who served us were all fabulous. Friendly and helped with choices too. We were attended by Iona, Rachael and Louise. Thank you girls-you made our girly brunch brilliant!

Been to the rule many times and have always had lovely service and atmosphere. We came today for the boozy brunch and had a great time. We loved the cocktails and food, was amazing portion sizes! The staff were attentive but not too much. Iona, Rachel and Louise were standout staff who made the experience so much fun! Overall our girlie brunch was a blast! Thank you girls!

The staff dealt with us very efficiently and effectively, they were so attentive but not overwhelmingly. Only expected to get a few drinks and food but ended up having a boozy afternoon which went down a treat! Shoutout to Louis, Rachel and Iona who made sure we had a great afternoon! Thank you again!

Friendly welcoming staff, great service thanks to Megan!

Food and drinks are amazing and the staff are very welcoming and service outstanding thank to Megan.

We were there on Saturday 27th September. As a family of 11 we had a great time. The 2 guys are brilliant at there job and a asset to the business. So friendly and accommodating, called in a few times while we stayed for the weekend. Keep up your good work.

Amazing live music! Attentive and friendly staff! Amazing management! Alice and Carly particularly amazing!

This bar is ridiculous. The bartenders are on a power trip. My 24y old friend got kicked out for not having ID, but I’ve seen underage kids use drugs in their bathroom.

We went for the boozy brunch and it was brilliant. Drinks, food and service was really good couldn't be faulted. Definitely be back.

My friend stumbled as she was wearing heels and was refused entry after we went in unaware she was left standing outside.James wanna be manager was on 1, power trip. Not great was 20 mins before realised she was missing. Sore feet no where to sit. She was probably most sober out of all of us . Apologies james prefer teenagers to woman over 30.

Cool vibe with older and younger crowd mixing it up. The only place we could find with a pool table. We drank our dinner so we can't recommend the food. The staff had a bit of attitude but we enjoyed ourselves.

Great place to eat. The triple threat burger is great and definitely worth a try.

Decent little student pub. We didn't eat but all the staff were friendly, drinks are reasonably priced and the dogs were welcomed.

Drinks only this time.Always included this on our pub crawl in St andrews. But £5.20 for a pint of tennents and 7 quid something for a bacardi and bottle of coke.!Have a word with yourselves.Wont be back

Had a really nice pizza and a few drinks , unforchantly our remembrance outing was interrupted by a member of the bar Staff who would not accept the official young Scott card from our 19 year old member the group. We dicedied to go onto soft drinks but when we walked past the bar several members of your group heard the Bar staff saying nasty things about us at the bar to fellow bar staff and when caught was embarrassed. Will not be back , didn’t feel welcomed at all and as someone with severe anxiety I felt extremely uncomfortable. Unforchanit experience

the food is incredible, especially the wings! also, the staff is really friendly!!

My must go to place when i visit St Andrews great cocktails at reasonable prices,always look forward to it,would be 5 stars but on this occasion only one person serving well done to him loved my cocktails.

This was our 4th visit to the rule for dinner. Usually the food is decent, however, paid over £30 for two burgers and chicken for my daughter and it was awful. The portions were tiny and basic and not worth the money. The burgers were rubbery and a handful of hard crispy chips had been thrown on the plates Not sure what’s happened as it used to be nice. We had to clear our own table and move plates and glasses and wipe it down with an antibacterial wipe before our meal was brought out. Won’t be back.

Absolutely positive experience!

Amazing service and staff at the rule

Dog friendly, nice food with plenty of TVs to watch sports on. Would come back again

fast service great vibes lovely drinks and food and staff

fast service, great food and drinks.

Food is amazing, staff are lovely and always have a good time in here. Highly recommend, best pub in the town

Brilliant service Food was out in great timing on a very busy night CLASS

Been for a lovely meal out with the friends and the food was brilliant!, class venue aswell. Best pub in St Andrews

Went to watch the England football, found a good table in the "sports" section. Good TV coverage, every seat could see a TV. My husband had the Triple Threat burger...it came out burnt and severely overcooked, sitting in a puddle of melted cheese. He ate it because he was hungry, but did not enjoy it. I had grilled chicken, which again, came in a puddle of marinara sauce. It was a barbecue based chicken, so these two flavours did not compliment one another. My chickens top layer was dry and rubbery. After removing that, the rest was OK. Super Cold Guiness and lovely crispy fries were the saving grace. The staff were very friendly. The atmosphere was good. England won! It emptied out pretty quick after that. 3.5 stars only.

Lovely services from James. Great cocktails especially margaritas and aperol spritz!

Fabulous food in a great venue!!! But of confusion re the menu & the offers but all sorted. Cheers

Lovely food with lovely company. Great portion sizes. Value for money

Amazing food, staff and service

This place has a beautiful atmosphere with great pricing for drinks (especially if you're a student and it doesn't matter where you are from :-) )

Amazing place to watch the euro! Awesome atmosphere with quick service and reasonable prices for students! Recommendation for a big night out!

I have been in St. Andrews for a summer school and I got drinks here on discounted rate. Watched football matches on awesome big screens and had best time with friends on a big night out. Highly recommended!

A very welcoming place in the center of St Andrews. Had lots of fun. Definitely a favorite.

Really great place to have a drink after work, very friendly staff as well

Great place to enjoy drinks and watch sport. Multiple TV’s greatly placed so you can enjoy all the action and the staff are brilliant. 10/10 would recommend to come with family and friends.

We organized a group lunch at St Andrews and the team at The Rule were very accommodating with our request and friendly. The atmosphere was good, varied pub food at reasonable prices. A nice pub centrally located in St Andrews. We would consider this place again for any future group gatherings!

My friend was in there and the bouncer wouldn’t even let me wait outside. The bouncers are terrible and they don’t respect women or want them to be safe. Terrible bouncers 13/6 it’s 2024 respect women.

Been coming to the rule my whole life & never had any issues until recently everytime ive been coming I’ve been refused be served from the minute I walked in the pub. Spoken with a number of others who seem to have had the same issue with this member of staff, Tried to resolve this issue with the manager but getting no where. Obviously it’s normal for bar tenders to leap across the table and snatch a glass from your hand.

Brilliant wee place, food is nice a tasty and staff are friendly xx

Boozy brunches might just be the best thing of 2024 period

One of the best pubs I've been to in the whole of St Andrews, quick service, friendly staff, great atmosphere, would recommend to anyone who's looking for a nice drink or a bite to eat.

Boozy brunch was great value and amazing food and drinks. Special shout out to James and anna for great service

Lovely place to come for drinks with friends and family, favourite place in St Andrews.

Very good service. James was great. Thank you everyone at the rule 👌

great bar in st. Andrews. All the staff are awesome. Big up Corey for talking me through Mixr 🙏

Nice food really good service from two young ladies . Popped in for something to eat really nice x This place looks pretty good for a night out great atmosphere 👌

I’m here every week for Wing Wednesday and it’s always great vibes. Not only that, but they have a wonderful beer garden for sunny days and a great selection of drinks.

Great service, popped in one for pint and was made to feel very welcome by the manager. Great wee place with great atmosphere and staff. Awesome beer garden too!

I had (and continue to have) a great experience at the Rule this afternoon. They have a great selection of beers and a lovely outdoor beer garden to enjoy the sun and summer weathers! Always a pleasure and will definitely visit again 😊

All right if you like your pub rough and ready, tables are never cleared, and if they are they're never cleaned. Sorry not for me. If you want a nice beer garden, go to the Saint.

We stumbled by accident this place . So glad we did . Staff were very pleasant. Had a glance at the menu everything sounded great . I opted for the fish and chips , my husband had the meat feast pizza with slow cooked burnt end . Food arrived soon after and oh my the fish was just fantastic slight crisp and juicy fish also the chips were delightful. The pizza looked amazing just like a proper Italian pizza . My husband said it was one of the best he has had . Two cleaned plates

Food is class, staff are great (James in particular) and the student deals are worthwhile

Came in a month ago and wanted to say how great this place was. Fantastic food and fantastic service. Standout person for us was Omar the manger. We will be back!

Was quite impressed when we came in for lunch and Omar was able to find out what our daughter who has two allergens could eat. Food portions were good and service was fast! Enjoyable for all the family

Arrived with Family. Staff were great. Food was great. Drinks were great. Could not fault. Highly recommended Trigger

Friends and I visited on Saturday night. The food was good, the staff were attentive and the overall atmosphere provided us with an enjoyable experience.

Thank you to Louise for an amazing abba themed brunch this was my first brunch and I highly recommend the rule for a boozy brunch! Amazing cocktails staff are super friendly and food is delicious! Got super cute love heart sunglasses and we’ve had an amazing time a lot of effort put into this highly recommend :)

We all had such an amazing time at the ABBA boozy brunch today! Louise did such a fantastic job at organising this event. The staff were always making sure our drinks were topped up and very friendly. We will definitely be back for another boozy brunch! Thanks again!

Thanks to Louise for putting on an amazing boozy brunch you’re a star with amazing service and catered to all our needs will definitely be back! ❤️

Atmosphere was fantastic and so was the service - 100% will be back! Especially on old firm day

Great atmosphere and amazing customer service! Will definitely be in more regularly! Thank you for a great afternoon!

Was such a pleasurable experience in this pub watching the Scotland game with my mates! Staff were excellent can’t recommend this place enough for a chill pint to watch sports

Student deals can’t be beat in st andrews

Came here for a drink during a wee pub crawl, what a nice pub! Walked in and got served by James, who was fantastic! Quick service and the MIXR app meant we got a free drink for signing up! James was brilliant with helping us, and helped us with where else to go. Food menu looked good as well, will be back :))

Always enjoy drinks in "Ja Rule" as we call it when we are working in St. Andrews. Always handy for the pre and post Jahangir pints. Have also eaten there plenty of times, basic bar food but it hits the spot when you're not wanting anything fancy.

Got a Scottish breakfast for under £10. Full to the brim - great portion sizes and decent quality food

Outstanding food, drinks and service. Best place in St Andrews for Boozy Brunch!

Great service. Friendly staff👌🏼

Nachos not the best but other items were good.

Quick service, good food and drink and a great place to watch sport. Wouldn’t recommend anywhere else in St Andrews to watch the six nations

Service was great, especially James

Amazing staff, James was really helpful

Had a lovely time at wings Wednesday, James was particularly lovely and made sure we had a lovely time !

Had a wonderful time at the rule. The food was great and was an incredibly good deal due to it being Wings Wednesday. Service was wonderful, especially James, who was friendly, funny, and clearly cared about us having the best experience possible. Would definitely come again

Best place to hangout , foods is awesome and pet friendly pub as well

Didn't like the menu nothing but burgers with cheese, not the place if you are lactose intolerant. Decided to drive the 45mins to Kirkcauldy and tried the witherspoons instead.

Quiet, great ambience. Can not really comment about food as we only took drinks.

Food and service good. We'd love to come back.

Absolute gem of a find, kid and dog friendly, craking food decent prices would highly recommend to anyone

James is the best barman in St Andrews and extremely friendly
