Excellent lunch as usual, steak pie once again a triumph although I wish I could get there on the day the side veg is cabbage (my fav). My husband had the home made lasagne which he loved and my two choosy teens had steak pie and chips and tuna (an adjusted menu item, thanks to the obliging kitchen crew). Clean plates all around. Thoroughly recommend the Station, the staff are excellent and the steak pie is legendary. I've been coming to the Station for several years and have never been disappointed once, should mention the homemade curry is also excellent and I was torn today which to choose.

First visit to Carnoustie and after reading the reviews decided to try the station for Sunday evening meal. Arrived at 16.30 , and were met by a lovely waitress who said if we came back about five when they started serving meals we would be able to have a table. We went into the public bar for a drink. Lovely clean friendly bar, quite obviously lots of locals enjoying it . We were shown to our table and soon after our order was taken. The manager and his young team work well together , everyone helping each other to serve the customers swiftly and with a smile. We enjoyed roast beef and Yorkshire pudding, and the homemade steak pie…….just delicious, thank you to the chefs .clean plates all round! we had to try a sweet and we were not disappointed, sticky toffee and apple pie, just a perfect Sunday evening meal. Thank you everyone, you finished off a weekend trip to the dundee area beautifully, we will be back!

Thinnest loo paper in two months and WiFi signal kept dropping for 10 hours plus Mira shower takes a full five minutes to heat up. There we a pube on the empty shower gel dispenser in the shower and has been there the entire duration of our three night stay. The extractor fan didn't work which was rather unpleasant. Window view is of the sea, at an angle, but otherwise overlooked by the pedestrians and barfly's spilling onto the pavement, room 5 is particularly noisy in hearing the bar through the door. The idling vans at the level crossing is annoying too. Full breakfast is indeed filling, no need for lunch or dinner. Oily pool on the plate from the frying on the first morning. Fried eggs sunnyside down were brilliantly done. The poached eggs were cooked in semicircular moulds. The scrambled eggs were batch made and you can almost see the laddle marks. The beans were good. The bacon was fine. The sausages on the final morning are grissly. The cold smoked ham breakfast is just six large sliced of ham, each the side of the dinner plate, nothing else with it. Coffee seems to be instant. Great hot seeded toast. Sausages not as flavourful as elsewhere, had a fair amount of hard gritty bits in the final morning. Dusty closet, don't place clothes on the shelf. BBC News didn't work on the TV and you need hold the remote high. Just black tea and instant coffee in the room. Toiletries and biscuits were fine. Strawberries and raspberries were fine for breakfast although we found the yoghurts warm. House keeper was surprised we were staying on, wondered if we wanted towels changing etc, we said we didn't but after breakfast she changed everything, even unused towels. We repeated the following morning to not replace towels but she did again. The Corner Hotel dinners were about half the price and tasty enough and slight variation on beers. Staff were pleasant and the decor nice. The half empty car park was full on the weekend Shame the TV couldn't be unplugged to avoid the standby light

I've no idea of the identity of the male member of staff who answered the phone last night when I enquired if a table was available. He abruptly stated, in fact, snarled "no" ( that was the full extent of his response) and slammed the phone down. I immediately called back to complain and was mid sentence when he, once again, slammed the phone down. I was completely shocked and taken aback at his rudeness and abysmal failure to adhere to any customer service. Have no fear, I will not try again and will tell my many local acquaintances to give this place a very wide berth!

Very nice waitress managed to squeeze us in despite being busy when we said that we were just after a sandwhich. When they came they were lovely and came with a generous salad ( no token lettuce leaf and bit of tomato) or in my case a portion of fries. Great value and friendly service.

Spent four nights at this hotel whilst visiting area for Grandson's birthday. First of all a big thank you to the hotel staff, who were all very welcoming. A special mention for the lady who prepares the rooms - I never saw her without a smile on her face. We only had one evening meal at the hotel, as we were either out and about or dining with our family at their home. Food was very good - the haddock was excellent and the salmon was so large it would have fed two people. And now the best bit - room 10. It was enormous, and had a bathroom to match. The bed, which were two singles joined together, was very comfortable. A nice touch was the two easy chairs in the bay window, from which you could watch the world go by - or not go by if the barriers were down for a passing train. All in all a very pleasant stay at a customer-friendly hotel. Thank you.

Attempted to visit this establishment after a nice walk along the seaside with family and friends at lunchtime. We found it highly embarrassing when the rather rude lady on the bar said dogs are allowed, but a 10 month old baby wasn't allowed. Steer well clear if you are planning on visiting with a family. To think they value animals over another human being is a disgrace. If you want a family friendly pub we would recommend the Kinloch Arms just around the corner.

Stayed for one nights B and B. Room was clean with pleasant decor. Staff were friendly, helpful and available. I've eaten here before and the lunch/dinner is a traditional menu but well prepared from good quality ingredients. Its (rightly) a popular venue so booking recommended for dinner on Thursday-Sunday. Breakfast was also very good - a choice of a fry-up or Arbroath smokies. My only criticism is that it would have been nice to see some Scottish ingredients in the fry-up (tatty scones / haggis or black pudding). The hotel has a busy public bar (with a really nice snug). We didn't hear any noise from the bar - but some of the customers were a bit noisy when leaving. Great value.

Brian at reception was ever so helpful. My mom and I arrived here from edinburgh (we traveled from Canada as I'm studying here abroad for 2 years). Due to festivals and high traffic we needed to change itinerary as we needed to be closer to the university for my induction and matriculation. Brian was so helpful in assisting us by calling Expedia and helping us transfer our reservations elsewhere to accommodate us. He was very professional, helpful and friendly. We are very thankful. Thank-you Brian!!!

Stayed overnight and is never a 3 star hotel, the room window had condensation as it could not open and it was the hottest day in June so was boiling all night. The skirting boards and doors were filthy and there was a layer of dust on the chest of drawers. The shower was covered in mildew and there was clumps of hair on the inside of the shower. If I didn’t have a glass of wine when I arrived then I would have left and driven home. I did complain when I was checking out and didn’t even get an apology from the female who checked us out.

Stayed overnight , on a work trip. Excellent location and parking. Warm , informative welcome on arrival. Large room with sea view...if you squinted out the window! Had everything you needed , including one of my favourites ... huge bath towels! However the picky amongst us, would have liked more comfortable chairs than the "ballroom" ones, but there were two, always a bonus. Decor almost made it but a few tweeks would lift the room from basic to really good. Everything just about matched , not close enough but not awry enough to be arty! The floor in the shower room was HUGELY squeeky, which I liked...some may not. Food very good, fair vegetarian choice. Generous portions, as were those at breakfast. Overall a great choice at an affordable price. AND close to beach!

Right by the station and with parking around the back. Because of new lockdown measures they said there was no food or drink after 6 (which didn’t apply to hotels serving guests so I am not sure why they weren’t serving). The room was a lovely size with good facilities and a big comfy bed. Breakfast was also delicious. Really good value and an excellent stay but never did find out why I couldn’t get an evening meal.

Had a lovely family meal at teatime at the Station Hotel during a short break in Carnoustie. Chose this restaurant in advance having looked at menu online and read the good reviews! Delighted with my choice!There is an extensive menu with lots of family/pub favourites. Good kids menu too. So something for everyone!We loved our starters - prawn cocktail and breaded mushrooms. Mmm, can't beat the old favourites. Very generous portions. The steak pie is a favourite here. It is not difficult to see why. Three of us had it and it was amazing 10/10! Lots of lean, tender, chunky steak topped with pastry and served with carrots, peas and chips. Unfortunately my photo doesn't do it justice as there's a blob of tomato sauce in the middle!My youngest child is between adult and children's portion sizes. So the waiter kindly gave her a child's portion of macaroni with an extra helping on the side which she devoured. We had no room for dessert apart from the kids meal ice cream!Would highly recommend the Station Hotel for food. Staff were lovely, nothing was too much trouble for them. Really nice with kids. Hotel has a lovely little bar too which I am sure is normally bustling! Hopefully we'll be able to enjoy a glass of red wine with our steak pie next time we come to Carnoustie.

We had been wanting to try The Station Hotel for a while, we were not disappointed. It’s very difficult to find great home cooking , good portion size and a nice atmosphere but The Station has it all and great for children too. The steak pie was fantastic, best we have had. They have a children’s menu but they offer 1/2 portions of the main menu for children too. We didn’t have dessert but they looked great. Due to the current Covid situation they are following all guidelines, temperature taken on arrival , hand sanitizer, the use of masks by all staff, tables are spaced out and are being cleaned after each party and they also have signage in place. This makes for a safe evening out in a difficult situation. If you haven’t been go. We will be most definitely back again. Thanks to you all at The Station for a lovely meal on a very dark & rainy Saturday night.

Staff were lovely food was wonderful ..prawn cocktail and steak pie superb. Hubby had breaded mushrooms and chicken curry and polished off sticky toffee of course I had a taste and all was good . There were a couple of tables of guys in clearly golfers who were noisey and having a great time didn't bother us it felt great to be in an atmosphere were everyone was enjoying themselves for a change instead of hearing about doom and gloom .

This was our first visit for an evening meal since lockdown. Our temperature was taken on arrival but this involved the member of staff coming a little closer than I would have liked as she was not wearing a mask. She advised us that she had asthma and found mask wearing difficult after a while, she showed us to our seat which was well socially distanced from others. A different person (Again with no mask) came to take our drinks order. Then a third unmasked waitress took our food order. I feel one person should be allocated a table and serve it alone, this would cut down any risk. The food was as good as ever but I won’t be rushing back for a while yet, or until the staff are able to mask up like I see in many other restaurants.

After looking at several Wedding Venues in the Dundee/ Angus area we decided on the Station Hotel for our special day. There were several reasons for our decision but the main one being the honest friendly way we were received by Brian & Arlene. From day one they could not have been more helpful, whether it was to do with choosing the menu or organising the disco. We had taken all the Hotel Bedrooms which were of a good standard and all the guests that stayed for the weekend were most complimentary both about the good night's sleep and the breakfast not to mention the service from the long-suffering Bar staff !!! We were able to have the ceremony in the Hotel which was great as it kept the 50+ guests in one place and cut down the travelling for all concerned. There are a few options for photographs ie The Beach or as we decided on outside the Hotel.Arlene and her team did a fabulous job of dressing the tables and the set up was just as we wanted cosy but not cramped and definitely lite and bright. We had chosen to mix and match the menu from the options given and this was never going to be a problem with the very competent kitchen brigade, our guests pre-ordered there meal with the RSVP cards and it worked a treat.Brian was a wonderful Master of Ceremonies organising us but being unobtrusive, also kept the wine flowing and the foodservice unhurried but smooth and very efficient.The day function flowed seamlessly into the evening with the rooms easily coping with the extra 60 guests and the evening buffet was most appreciated by our evening friends. The Disco was an excellent choice playing to the assembled revellers and keeping all happy! The bar staff were first class and worked tirelessly to quench the thirst of the assembled group.All in all, we could not have chosen a better venue suited to our needs and given the present climate we were very fortunate to have chosen the 14th March for our Wedding as I would not be writing this had it been a few days later.We look forward to returning to the hotel in the future to enjoy your bar meals and first-class service.

The Station Hotel is very popular seemingly with what one might describe as a clientele of a 'certain age', and offers all the old Scottish favourites of soup, scampi, steak pie, macaroni, fillet of haddock etc. I had a steak, and I suppose that it was cooked in typically Scottish style - in that I asked for it to be 'rare', however it could be best described as being 'medium'. That said, it was very good and by far not the worst steak that I have ever had.The service was very good, and the food was a plenty. All in all, not a bad place locally to eat.

My family and I visited for my dads birthday meal. It was delicious and very filling, good portion sizes as well as a kids menu and they also do half portions. We had my niece with us who is 1 year old and the staff were excellent with her (especially the gentleman waiter working on the evening of 24/1/20), her meal was brought out earlier than the others as they could see she was restless. Staff were also really good at interacting with her and making her laugh (doesn’t happen very often at other places so we were delighted that the whole family were welcomed regardless of age). This was our first visit and we will definitely return.

The best steak pie for miles and service with a smile! Great prices and very full plates. Only thing is they don't serve after 8 pm but get there before and you won't regret it!

We had a family meal here. The food and service were both excellent. They have a kids menu and you can have half portions if not a big eater. We would definitely return.

Been here on plenty of occasions but only for drinks. Staff are friendly. They sometimes do free food when there is football on which is a plus! Never been for food but always looks great.

My mum and I visited this restaurant for lunch as it was my birthday. I ordered a light lunch of chicken mayonnaise baked potato and my mum ordered steak pie.The steak pie lived up to its reputation and was absolutely delicious. A rich sauce with tender pieces of steak, topped with lovely pastry. The potato was well cooked and the chicken was yummy. It was no small portion either. The staff in this hotel are just wonderful, friendly and warm. We were made to feel very welcome. We will definitely be back.

My wife and l dropped into this hotel right by the train station on Saturday evening and decided to have a drink in the bar, before going into the lounge for an evening meal. Firstly thanks to the young bartender who carried our drinks from the bar and placed us at a table in the lounge area and providing us with menus.The meal was delicious (salmon with prawns on top) enjoyed by both my wife and l. Thanks also to the staff for the attentive service as we were just passing through, but will most definitely be back.

The wife and I stayed here for a meeting in monifieth. We couldn't get accommodation in monifieth and that's why we chose here. When we booked we were advised that there would be music till late. We had a spacious room which allowed us to spread our luggage about to our comfort. There is hotel car parking which made it easier to take in our luggage. The restaurant was fully booked so we ate in the bar. We had blackcurrant and water with little change out of £5 which we found expensive as we are used to paying £0.50 in five star hotels and some even give it for free. I had a prawn cocktail starter which was very fresh. To follow I had steak pie with all the trimmings which was very tender. The wife had gluten free roast beef again very tender. We did not have time to have a sweet but we were delighted with our mains. Breakfast was an excellent choice of fruit juices and cereals etc. and a hearty fry up to set you up for the day. We would not hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone and would use it again.

Our second visit to the Station while in Carnoustie and another good meal with good service. The veggie options could be extended and changed occasionally. It's a pity the vegan option is always a curry. Otherwise a very pleasant evening.

We booked a table for four and we were seated by the window in the main dining room which was very nice and clean . Linen tablecloths and good service added to the pleasant dining. The food choice was good and the Belhaven beer was excellent. The Salmon dish was well prepared. tasted delicious and the portions were large. As always the steak pie was stupendous. We will definitely return again when visiting Carnoustie.

Visited the hotel as a surprise weekend away for my wife for our upcoming anniversary the staff couldn't do any more for us and nothing was enough. We ate in the hotel one night of our stay and the food was amazing we couldn't ask for anything more. All in all I cant say a bad word about the hotel or restaurant and we will be back to visit again guaranteed. We will see you soon x

Found this by chance. Looked very clean and well cared for from outside. Was an excellent find. Food was delicious-big helpings and good honest pub grub. Service was friendly and obviously popular with locals. Would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Carnoustie.

Attended for lunch with my mum and dad. We’re given a nice seat in the bar immediately. Staff were very attentive and we had drinks almost immediately. Lunch was very nice, went for the sandwich with chips which I was delighted to find were swapped for the salad rather than just an additional side order, although I could have had both if I desired. Food was good quality and generous portion sizes!

We visited here 4 times in the last week for our evening meal as we were on holiday. The menu was varied and good. This place is popular with local people which tells its own story. We had - the curry, salmon, sliced sirloin, chicken in a sauce and their thick lentil soup. All pretty good and very hot food and plates which is great! Prices seem average. Staff pleasant and helpful. Service was quick.

My family and I have been staying juat outside Arbroath on a weeks holiday/visiting family. We asked them where we could go for a great meal out before we went home. They suggested The Station Hotel, Carnoustie. The food was beautiful, especially the Steak Pie. Piping hot, crusty pastry and an abundance of filling accompanied by peas, carrots and a big portion of chips. The whole family enjoyed their mains and had room for dessert. Dessert was just as delightful as the mains. The service was great and we never felt like we were over staying our welcome. I would definitely visit again on my next journey to the area and would recommend this to anyone visiting the area.

Hubby and friends usually meet up and have lunch and a few pints. Best on the menu is definitely the beef olives with the steak pie a close runner up. Family feel hotel with the amazing staff. An absolute must👍

Good fresh food, although the menu isn't very varied if your looking for lunch It's in a lovely setting and there's a small play park for children. Dogs are allowed and well catered for. There's plenty parking but this is where I felt badly let down. There is no allocated disabled parking! There was a challenging walk on my crutches from the carpark to the cafe as the surface isn't very wheelchair friendly. With the space available in sure there is an easy remedy and I'm sure we'll come back for more of the good food and see if they resolve the parking for the disabled.

The view from the dining room was lovely and the staff were super friendly and welcoming, unfortunately, the food was not great. The lasagne tasted like a poor-quality frozen ready meal and the mac 'n' cheese was not very nice. The chips were good, though. Unfortunately, for several days afterwards I had an upset stomach. Apparently, due to staff shortages, their menu was reduced and maybe they didn't have the qualified staff who usually prepare the food. Maybe we were just unfortunate and did not sample their food at its best.

Friendly staff, good service. Nice to sit outside and look out over the harbor. They do not serve food anymore, but they do have an ice cream bar daytime. Fair prices on the beer.

I've visited this cafe many times as we stayed outside Alyth numerous times throughout the year and more so when my sisters cancer was terminal. The reason I'm back today is to visit where their ashes were scattered as both my mom and sister are scattered here together. (We live in Wales) I would agree with many other reviews on here that this is not the friendliest cafe considering how lovely it is. I will point out that most times when the younger girls serve, they're very pleasant. I was here on Monday for tea and cake and the young blonde lady serving was absolute lovely and gave me the WiFi password, as I've also had on previous trips when I've asked. Nothing worse sitting on your own, Billy no mates and can't use your phone. Today I'm stretching and getting signal on and off. Anyhow, I came In today, Wednesday 16 October, no hello.. nothing. Sat down and rude woman appeared with pen and notepad..no hello.. just are you ready to order or do you need another minute? No smile, no pleasantries. I ordered I then went up to look for the password only for her to tell me there isn't one.. you can't have WiFi as we don't have it. I said it's showing up .. and I got it on Monday. No you didn't as we don't give it out... if everyone uses it our tills don't work.. Really ??? 🤔🤔😶🌫️ I said once again I got it on Monday. - no you didn't !! OK.. seemingly I'm a liar now 🙄🙄😔 Honestly I doubt I'll be back here as clearly the same woman, older, glasses and not a scottish accent I don't believe, Blue in her hair this time. You'd think after many complaints they'd do something about this.. unless she's the actual owner.. which sadly I hope not.. She does not make visiting conditions pleasant .
