The Salmon Leap in South Lanarkshire

Nice place. Great atmosphere and staff real friendly.

First visit loved it great food that was washed down with a nice pint 😊

Superb food and great service from Young Cameron. Could not fault the food here at all, had meatballs and bruschetta to start plus we had the steak pie and chicken and leak pie. The portions were more than generous and left us completely full. The food came out piping hot and was very fresh. We will definitely be back, young Cameron’s service was excellent as he was very polite and friendly.

Refurbished but toilets are a disgrace. Dirty, smelly and no locks on most of the doors.

New ownership have brought this place back to life and the refurb is lovely. Management and the team are great and always happy to help. Our lunch was great also!

Myself and a friend just had lunch highly recommend we had haggis bon bons and loaded potato skins and dessert both of us had biscoff cheesecake beautiful and the price was great as well

This is a great pub. What an atmosphere before a night out or even just staying in the pub. This pub now appeales to all ages. The bar staff are absolutely amazing..

Nice meal. Charged twice but got it fixed within 24 hours.

Lovely refurbished pub and restaurant. Food was lovely. Staff were great, so friendly. Will definitely be back. Decorated so beautifully.

The salmon leap is a great place for food and drink and the staff are very friendly, also a great atmosphere, but unfortunately staff and customers are vaping within the premises, of which is illegal, especially customers sitting at the bar where you have to stand to order a drink

Just stopped in for a quick bite and the Mrs and I were delighted with our food and the service...would recommend to anyone ...and we'll definitely be back 👍😋

Went to the New Years party here. Staff excellent and well looked after.

I was at a wake in the function hall. Food was lovely and plentiful. Couldn't comment really on atmosphere as it was a wake but clean and looked nice

It was a good night, good company, and great service, but the food wasn't cooked properly as the sausage rolls were cold.

What can I say,the menu and service was fantastic, struggled to eat the mains after the starter, only problem I'd have is servings to big!! Give the leep a full 5star rating.

Very warmly establishment great place to unwind after a hard day at work great friendly staff

What a lovely surprise we had today when we popped in for an unplanned, quick bite to eat! The food was delicious, well presented, decent sized portions. The bar was cosy, comfortable and warm. The staff member on duty accommodated all our needs and gave us some fantastic menu suggestions. Will definitely be back.

The food was delicious and the portions were huge. The team did everything to make our large party of 13 enjoy a great night.

Recently refurbished and was invited to an eighteenth birthday party, cold buffet was laid on, small steak pies were great along with the pakora, but no sausage rolls!!! DJ was great but too loud for the size of the room IMO!!! Drinks were served by hard working staff who were run ragged all nite, but they were really happy and polite. Gents toilets are a large trough and 2 small hand basins with manual turn on and off taps!! Left on mostly, 1 hand dryer not ever up to the job, get a couple of dysons!!!! All in all a decent nite, but sort out the gents toilets!!!!

We went for a meal and drinks. . Service was great. . The food was delicious and they Also had a glutton free choice . Small restaurant but nice and cosy and nice staff .

It wás nice and quiet a bit expensive for us no lunch menu just a menu for all day eating

I visited on a Sunday afternoon and was surprised by the live music

Lovely meal and Kenzi behind the bar was very attentive. Recommend the steak pie and the salmon. Prices very reasonable

What a fantastic difference this pub is, staff great,meals fantastic service great 👍 one of the best in eastkilbride now well done to Chris and all the staff thanks

Massive improvement on last owners. Music great at weekends. But could do with dropping the volume down a bit when the bar not so busy.

put a beautiful spread on for my loved brothers funeral and staff were amazing

Thought we’d pop in given that we haven’t been in there for 10 years. What an amazing refurbishment! Up there for one of my top places to go in East Kilbride now

Refurbished and what a change , the salmon is now a fantastic couple friendly place to be with great staff and a fantastic atmosphere if you haven't been please try you won't be disappointed

End of an era. Closed its doors on Sunday 29th January 2023 under Drew and Allison, their fault for neglecting the place. Looking forward to a new chapter when it reopens, albeit under new management

Friendly staff and great guiness!

We end up on family surprise party there ,great price for drinks ,lovely ,friendly staff and clean bathrooms.highly recommended

My friend and I had the spicy bean burger and this is not a big Mac burger with chips. Everything was delicious and friendly service. Velicious in the Salmon Leap is just what E K needs.

Great staff and lovely atmosphere. I would have no trouble going again.

Good beer. Not been here for ages, not changed much.

Atte ded my friends 30th birthday celebrations. Fantastic night.

Nice Hall for functions but no disabled facilities

At 60th last night. Staff so nice. Compy place for family n friends to get together

I was the dj at a 30th birthday party here and the function suit is not massive or to small and all the staff were fantastic 👏 and got to say can't wait till my next one there massive thanks to the staff here Iain reid Dj Silver fox Dj Iain Reid's mobile disco Scotland

Did catering for a 60th Birthday Party here at weekend a lovely hall and amazing friendly well organised staff

Came with my wife expecting they still do food ..was here last year and had a nice .meal .due to Clovis I was told they can't do food ..sad ..as food was lovely here .

Bar staff are very unfriendly and unhelpful

Nice pub with plenty seats with friendly locals

Dreadful no cold drink soda water and lemonade served from a bottle that sits on the gantry no in a fridge

Great entertainment for parties

Great wee local and friendly service

OK small function room staff nice

Quiet, mellow music and friendly staff.

There for funeral purvey. Great coffee 👍👍

I’d suggest you’d be hard pushed to get value for money like this for some tasty pub grub. Jim the Chef goes out his way to get the orders served up and the portions are huge. For great pub grub and especially the Pakora, I can recommend the Salmon Leap.

Bar staff weren't too clever and service was appalling

Had a function here, can't comment on the bar or lounge. Hall was fine, food from Jim was great, and bar staff were really good. Service and communication were appalling. Picked the hall and got DJ all sorted, decorations bought, gets to a couple days before and only then are we told no decorations on the walls, fine we adapted. Day of we set up early, finish setting up and get told that we are in the wrong room for they've booked for us. Tried to make us move to a hall we never picked from the beginning. Get that straighented out and night goes alright. At the end we talk about cleaning up and what we want to keep. Go back to find out all our decorations were binned. Woman didn't have a great attitude whenever speaking to her, wouldn't book a function here again.

Lovely pub this and i heard so much about the steak pie and had it and it lived up to the hype, will definitely be coming back and definitely getting the steak pie again

We have not been here for ages ..but once again the steak pie and fish were excellent.. didnt know the waiter was actualy the chef aswell .brilliant ..the food was fresh and well presented with full of flavour .we will be back..love this place allthough a bit tight on space in the snug bar They should serve food in other bar

Good function spaces and good pub!

Full plates of food welcoming staff Steak pie lovely soft meat

Our meal was lovely and the manager was very nice he went out his way to make our day pleasant we also had desert and it was great as well and the price was very good for the whole meal. The only problem is it eating area is very small not a lot of tables but I liked it that way not to much noise I would recommend The Salmon Leap.

This is a no frills but decent local pub which benefits from friendly staff and locals. A good selection of drinks and really good pub grub, the steak pie and the pakora are especially good. If you want a well cooked meal at a fair price, don't waste your time in the so called gastropubs in East Kilbride. Go here, you won't be disappointed.

Clean well kept pub, friendly bar staff

Good pub great food by cook Jim

Function suit looking good fun night

I was pleasantly surprised when entering this pub as from the outside it is not a nice looking building however inside the décor although was dark, it was really nice and the staff were incredibly friendly too.

Place is an absolute joke . Had my baby shower back in October . A week after booking they done an offer for a dj with the hall for 75 I'd already paid 50 for the hall apparently they couldn't give me the deal as I booked the week before ... Same thing happened I booked this January for my son's christening next Saturday. Chose the same hall I had my baby shower in. Went in to confirm table numbers etc today. They've booked me in the wrong hall and a baby shower ( booked on 10th Feb) was in the hall I'm supposed to have . I said well you will have to do something to sort this . Woman was for doing nothing about it . Told me I needed my receipt of booking etc . Went away home to get that ... 2 hours later i get a call to say it's all sorted and changed . No I don't think so . Customer service is absolutely appauling. How you dealt with me as a paying customer is appauling. I am now without a venue next Saturday for what was supposed to be my son's special day. Wouldn't touch them with a barge pole . Wish I had booked the murray bar . Staff where amazing when speaking with them hall is free LCD screens for putting usb in for photos etc. Lesson learned here and I will never book with them again !

Great little place, very welcoming

Great food. Good atmosphere and very friendly.

Came back here again for food with my grandaughter for a meal and phoned first to make sure kids are allowed in to what time and was told 9 .brill..food was good and the service by bar staff was excellant .good food and staff .nice pakoras

A local pub for me. Been done up recently so it's smart looking and kind on the eye. £3.10 for a tennents. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff.

Went a few weeks ago steak was amazing and the sicky toffee pudding was to die for keep up the good work first time there to

Normal local pub that could do with a bit of renovating.

we have been great followers of john and his chef from berits and browns to sky bar and the salmon leap to enjoyin the best in food wherever we go ,we came back here this week and enjoyed our food once again -brill bar food ,keep up the good food john and chef ,,we will be back again soon ,best bar food in ek

My daughter was raving about the lovely meal she had here and must admit I was surprised but becided to give it a go. We were not disappointed and have been going regularly ever since. The steak pie is brilliant as is the fish and the carbonara is the best I have ever tasted. If you like good quality food cooked to perfection this is the place to go. Thanks Jim for all the lovely meals.

First Class food and reasonably priced, We have visited this pub dozens of times and never had reason for any kind of complaint. Jim always gives a friendly welcome and provides a first class service. I fully recommend you give this pub a visit.

Just had dinner here my daughter had mac n cheese she is a very fussy eater and she had the lot I had a club sandwich and wasn't disappointed the 3 tier was bursting at the seem with filling brilliant definitely recommend this place

We went here again..for steak pie .must be best steak pie in ek.loved it..defo back here for food ..love it

All enjoyed your night in salmonleap. At a friend's engagement party tonight.

Drink a bit expensive and warm Guinness

Hadn't been in here for many years but we were using the function room for a stag party. Room itself was fine however, it was bang smack in the middle of the heat wave and there appeared to be some issue opening windows (noise complaints) so it was like an oven to the point the condensation was dripping from the ceiling in the bathroom. Yuk. Also, one of the worst pints of Guinness I've ever been poured. Needs a good bit of work to bring up to standard. No idea what the bar/lounge is like or the food.

Private function - food good but facilities very poor - we all left early - spoilt birthday party. Only offerred £25 compensation - refused.

Been here a few times now and love the freshness of the food .i had fish n chips and wife had chicken fillet burger which was nice. .good bar food

Nice local East Kilbride public house.. very very basic. Staff pleasant.. function suite has too many seats cramed together and windows tie wrapped closed.. not good on a hot day as no air.. but as said basic and ok

It was good to be in a very freindly atmosphere and enjoyed the comapny. The drinks were surprisingly cheap.

Enjoyed a lunch here with a friend. The Staff, surroundings, food and menus were all very nice. The homemade soup was especially nice. I'll definitely be back

Attended a party in the function suite, great party however as soon as u went in the door the heat hit u! 24 degrees out side and every window locked! Only 1 fan working! Windows actually have tie wraps to prevent u from opening!

Some bar staff need to be nicer to customers NB

Me and my wife came here on Friday for lunch and we must say that the standard of qaulity food as pub grub stand out from any other pub, in East Kilbride. I had the steak pie with mash, and my wife had the curry of the day we were overwelmed by the standard of food we were given, the curry was so authentic, with fried rice and chapati on the side, were amazing. The staff were great and very attentive. Overall we will be back here again in the snugbar

Can not thank Jim enough for his amazing steak pie & apple pie served to 35 family & friends at my my dad's funeral yesterday.

Jim cooked 35 steak pies followed by apple pie for my dad's funeral yesterday! Not one complaint everybody loved it...although some couldn't finish his very generous portions. He was lovely, nothing was too much trouble and he just could not do enough for us. We had eaten there twice in just over a week and have loved his haggis fritters curry & lasange...oh and sticky toffee pudding...lol And will be popping in again before we return to Brighton on Sunday....😉😂 Thank you Jim...it was a difficult time And you made it easier knowing I didn't have to worry x Just love Jim's steak pie!!

Nice old style pub with good barstaff and you can also have a bite to eat.

Had a lovely lunchtime meal here with friends. Steak pie was lovely, vegetables were perfectly cooked. 👍

I'm not enjoying this afternoon as I haven't got my profile photo shoot on it yet again and again until it hits rock bottom right now as well as Salmon Leap at Maxwelliton Ave, Calderwood East Kilbride Glasgow South Lanarkshire United Kingdom distance away from me at home right now at 9 Runciman Place Calderwood East Kilbride Glasgow G74 3LH

Visited here on Sunday with a group of friends. We had 3 courses which were outstanding. Great fresh homemade food. Staff were friendly and efficient. Will definitely be back soon!

came here on thursday for lunch ,a had indian curry ,very nice and wife had fresh haddock and chips ,fresh chips were good ,would highly recomend this place for pub grub.very nice food

This pub has just been refurbished and under new management

Attended a function after a funeral and the staff could not do more to help.

some of us oldies struggled to get upstairs for a recent function.,.17/2, but the place was clean the staff friendly and efficient, food for some reason was strange,, sandwiches ,tea /coffee followed by lovely soup and later sausages rolls. not an issue because all food presented and tasted great

ONE horse town ,AND the horse is dead

We had my Nieces 21st in the function suite last night and I can’t recommend it enough, the staff were fantastic, the manager was so helpful in the afternoon when we went to decorate the room, and the bar staff in the function were great. So friendly. Dj was also fantastic. We would definitely have a function here again. Thanks so much guys, keep up the good work.

Thanks to John and staff for a great hospitality and lovely food for my step dads funeral tea It was enjoyed by all Would highly recommend the salmon leap and the services they offer.

Great food. Staff very friendly. Reasonably priced too!

A pub that serves food. What great food, plenty on the plate, the portions really huge and piping hot. The bill was a pleasant surprise. Will certainly return again.

Salmon Leap is a local pub and lounge 🍹 area for amongst older members of staff members who are Nip-picking me up on the tags and the rest of the night on the Internet connection favourite filly is main attraction for friendship and social evening entertainment and karaoke 🎤 which a Irish Colleen used to sing out of it, and that was Daniel O'Donnell and sometimes it was older sungs such as Facebook etc etc etc
