My partner and I came so we could have a last meal before it closed. We arrived at 12 because we reckoned it would be busy with it being the final day. We were told the kitchen didn't open until 12.30 so as we had found a seat, opted to have a drink. We ordered food at 12.30 (pie & chips and a burger) and over an hour later it eventually arrived. Also people that came in after us got served before us. No apologies for our long wait. It is maybe a good think that it has closed now.

Waited over an hour and 15 mins for 2x soup and a toastie when asked how long it would be told we were at the bottom of list and would be a while yet.. honestly! People cancelling food orders and leaving .i heard the lass who was taking orders say .. "that makes it easier on us!" Would not recommend for food if its busy!

Wir sind hierhin gegangen, weil Musik angekündigt war, eine jam session, traditional, folk. Bis es soweit war, haben wir gegessen: Brokkolisuppe ( sehr lecker), Venisson Burger mit French fries ( ebenfalls sehr lecker). Bedienung vielleicht nicht so professionell wie anderswo (Familienbetrieb), aber gerade deshalb vielleicht besonders nett. Die vielen Musiker treffen sich dort und machen der Reihe nach Musik. Wir hatten einen wundervollen Abend und haben uns wie Zuhause gefühlt.

Our favourite stop for lunch any time we’re near Perth. We discovered it just after Lockdown with strict protocols in place. Todays visit was the opposite. Friendly, welcoming staff who allowed us to chose our own seating. The food is fantastic, so we’ve come here every time we’ve been in Perth since. The Cullen Skink is a must for me every time.followed by a Strawberry Sundae. My wife loves the chips (fries) served with the skins on. Great food, nice atmosphere, subdued music(good stuff) and friendly accommodating staff We will be back, many times Kenny & Clare

Almost died of thirst! Straight to the point. I'm not sure what their target audience is so forgive me. I visited this place to drink, not to eat. So we took out seats at the bar, as is normal in Scotland, and we drunk our initial pint. We wanted another, we waited at least five minutes before we were fortunate enough to flag down a passing member of staff. The previous five minutes were spend standing up, waving bank cards, shuffling empty pint glasses, to no avail. Apparently standing at the end of the bar, speaking to their pals and Messing about on phones was more important. This scene was repeated again, and again till we moved on. Now, the venue itself is nice, clean, well furnished. But it was empty and I'd imagine that a good part of the reason why is that the service at the bar is so tardy. If you are going to be a pub, ensure that your punters are kept watered.

The curry looks lovely on the pictures but when we ordered it it came out on a small plate with a very small portion. Macaroni was not that great either quite a small portion and the salad was wilted.

I was with my partner, for a birthday tea. The staff are pleasant and efficient. Although they are a bit scruffily dressed. The food was enjoyable. It is very central and convenient for buses. The only thing letting this lovely pub down is the ladies facilities are an absolute disgrace. It won't stop us going, though.

Great food, great drinks, lovely atmosphere, and friendly staff (and locals). We only popped by for a drink initially, but when we saw the food on our neighbouring table, we decided to order pizza too - and it was delicious. We happened to still be there when some local musicians came in for a 'jam' session - and so we decided to stay, and it was wonderful. The evening was one of the highlights of our holiday - thank you all.

Popped in for an anniversary lunch. Main courses were fish, chips and salad and macaroni, chips and salad and both were excellent. Ordered the cheesecake of the day which was flake cheesecake and it was served with icecream and strawberries and was divine. Also had a bottle of wine and 2 cocktails. £56 for 2 mains, 2 desserts, a bottle of Sauvignon Blanc and 2 cocktails in a city centre pub is superb value for money. Friendly helpful service. Will definitely be back

Absolutely unprofessional! Waitress was very persistent on telling us that she finished at 6pm and that there was no real chef in!!! She made me feel very unwelcome at the start of the night! And certainly didn't make it better throughout the night! ("She was there till 7pm") even though she made it very clear to us that she finished at 6pm! We tried to order food and she told us to "hurry up" as she finished at 6pm and the menu was reduced cause there wasn't a real chef!!! Am pretty sure when John Byrdon owned the place this would have never happened and if Peter was in the kitchen! I certainly would never be rushed! Just because she finished at 6pm!! Absolutely unprofessional and shocking!! Certainly wouldn't be eating or bringing my customer here again!!

First visit to this very welcoming eaterie on the main drag in Perth. Being a soup lord, the standard choice of 3 was welcomed. The lentil and bacon was selected, the distinct lack of visible bacon was annoying, but to be fair it was quite tasty. I went for Steak pie., Not my ideal presentation, the pastry cooked separately and plopped on top, not giving that soggy pastry taste I yearn . the meat was tasty enough and plentiful. My friend had the chilli and enjoyed it. Pleasant staff, with the waiter showing interest and asking if everything was fine. Would definitely recommend and return.

Two of us came in for a late lunch, I order the chipotle chicken wrap which was supposed to come with sour cream and lime - which never did. The chicken was very tough and chewy and all that was in the wrap was tough chicken, tiny amount of cheese and some bland chipotle sauce. Partner had fish and chips which was exceedingly average. Batter was very pale and soggy. They also ordered a pint of lager that tasted stale. Would not recommend and will not be returning.

Me cubrí la cara y me dirigí hacia el baño. Antes de llegar al baño, un miembro del personal me preguntó si podían ayudarme, y cortésmente dije que no, gracias, voy al baño. Para mi disgusto, respondió bruscamente “sólo sus clientes”. Le expliqué que era un cliente que pagaba y me dirigí al baño.Cuando me acerqué al baño, una miembro del personal que estaba sentada gritó "disculpas, ¿no escuchaste que son solo clientes?". Entonces dije que ya le había dicho a su miembro del personal que soy un cliente, a lo que ella gritó "qué mesa es ese tipo en "algún otro miembro del personal gritó" mesa 1 "Estaba tan enojado cuando me desafiaron por segunda vez como cliente que paga, por intentar usar un baño.De hecho, tengo una discapacidad que no es visual, llevo una tarjeta que me permite usar el baño en cualquier momento. Sin embargo, no suelo usar la tarjeta porque me da vergüenza.Al regresar del baño, decidí decirle a la empleada lo disgustada que estaba de que me detuvieran dos veces por intentar usar un baño como cliente que pagaba. Ella trató de defender sus acciones, procedió a seguirme de regreso a mi mesa y le pidió a mi esposa que me dijera que bajara el tono.Normalmente no soy alguien que se enoja o se queja, ¡pero sus acciones fueron totalmente inaceptables! !Nunca volveremos a este establecimiento a nuestro regreso a esta hermosa ciudad.

Realmente decepcionado con la interacción del personal esta noche. Habíamos reservado una mesa para la cena, aparecimos en el momento exacto de la reserva para descubrir que el lugar estaba cerrado debido a la reducción de personal como resultado de un susto de COVID. No tengo absolutamente ningún problema con el cierre del lugar por esa razón, esa es la decisión correcta para mantener seguros al personal y a los clientes. Sin embargo, a pesar de hacer una reserva y dejar mi número de teléfono, no recibí ningún contacto para decir que el lugar había cerrado y mi reserva fue cancelada, pero para empeorar las cosas, cuando llegamos como estaba planeado, el empleado todavía estaba en el edificio. Inicialmente ni siquiera trató de hablar con nosotros, simplemente se acercó al lugar, nos señaló, luego señaló sus ojos, luego señaló el letrero en la ventana para decir que el lugar estaba cerrado, luego puso los ojos en blanco exasperación. ¡Tan grosero e irrespetuoso! Luego, mi esposo y yo nos quedamos afuera por unos minutos, tratando de decidir dónde más podríamos ir a cenar; no estábamos tratando de interactuar con el miembro del personal o incluso tratando de entrar al edificio, pero en este punto, ella vino y nos gritó, diciendo que el lugar estaba cerrado y que teníamos que entender que era por la seguridad del personal y del cliente. Dijimos que lo entendíamos, pero que no habíamos recibido ningún contacto de que el lugar estaba cerrado, por eso habíamos aparecido. Por lo general, disfrutamos mucho yendo a la taberna, y aunque aprecio que esta podría haber sido una tarde realmente estresante para dicho miembro del personal, sus habilidades de interacción con los clientes fueron horribles y condescendientes, y realmente nos ha desanimado de querer volver.

Se sirvió bastante rápido, estaba allí un miércoles por la tarde, así que el pub estaba bastante tranquilo. Sin embargo, mi comida tardó mucho en salir, y tan pronto como le pregunté a mi servidor, me trajeron la comida inmediatamente. Así que me parece claro que nuestra comida acababa de dejarse en la cocina durante Dios sabe cuánto tiempo. La comida era normal en el mejor de los casos, nunca volvería a comer aquí. Me aseguré de decirle al camarero que tenía prisa y que tenía que irme tan pronto como comiera mi comida, por lo que recibir la factura lo antes posible habría sido muy útil. Mi servidor se tomó su descanso y estoy seguro de que no hubo comunicación con ningún otro servidor porque tuvimos que solicitar la factura que, para ser justos, llegó muy rápido cuando tuve que intervenir nuevamente. Mi mesero debería haber sido más profesional, odio cuando mi comida está lista y mi mesero simplemente la deja reposar y hace que mi pareja y yo esperemos innecesariamente. Sabían que teníamos prisa y no se molestaron en transmitir la información de que necesitábamos la factura. Íbamos de camino a visitar un castillo, pero debido a que el servidor tardó tanto y no se comunicó correctamente, terminamos llegando demasiado tarde para visitar el interior del castillo, lo cual fue muy frustrante. Hay muchos otros lugares en los que he comido en Perth que son mucho mejores de lo que haré con ellos en el futuro.

Having visited here 3 times since moving back to Perth and trying it as The Tavern and not Scaramouche.

Mis amigos y yo estábamos buscando un pub en Perth con un ambiente alegre y amigable. Después de un tiempo logramos encontrar la taberna. Nosotros donde actualmente saludado por Euan. Era extremadamente profesional y muy agradable para hablar. ¡Altamente recomendado! Por favor, hágale saber a Euan lo contentos que estamos. (:

Avec une serveuse stressée et un responsable énervé nous aurions dû nous méfier: 4 bières pression tièdes

Two groups of extended family one travelling from Edinburgh and the other from Aberdeen met in Perth. I chose the Tavern because it was central and because it had good reviews. We were not disappointed. All were very happy with their meals. Three of us had fish and chips.My mom had the small portion which was just right for her. The burgers were also very good as was the sticky toffee pudding. Good friendly efficient service and good prices as well.

I haven't reviewed anything for a while but I just had to put in a word of praise for this place, chosen after having a wander up and down South Street while on a stopover in Perth. The place combined modernity with comfort. Very clean too.But most of all...

Called to see if our wee Scottie would be made welcome at lunchtime and Derek who answered the phone was fantastic. Confirmed pub was dog friendly and advised on type of menu available. He gave us directions and reserved a table for us. Food great (pie, chips and beans) prices very reasonable. Cannot praise highly enough, keep up the good work guys.

We received a very warm welcome. The staff are very helpful, friendly and polite. The food was delicious and good sized portions. The atmosphere was positive and not too loud [as some pubs are] All-in-all excellent value for money

The pub is centrally located, the food is excellent and very good value. The staff are helpful and attentive without being overly so. It has a good atmosphere and good music. Being female, I am even quite happy going in on my own. My only bugbear is that the ladies needs a major refurb.

From the moment we walked in, the staff were friendly & helpful. All of our party of 8 (of 3 generations) enjoyed the great atmosphere and excellent food. It was the best food we had whilst on holiday that week. A1 recommendation

Found this place by accident and glad we did. Friendly barman/waiter from the moment we walked in out of the rain. Despite serving on his own he couldn’t do enough for our party of 8 and had a great sense of humour. Food was excellent and a great place to try haggis and other local food. One of our party was vegetarian and was happy with the home made veg burger. Could not fault this place at all, just a pity we live 9 hours away or we’d be regulars. Definitely recommended!

Great food (we had a burger and mac and cheese) with good prices, but the service was the thing that really stood out. Welcoming bar staff, super attentive and friendly throughout. Smooth payment. The staff just seemed really experienced as well as really nice. Will be back when we’re next in Perth!

Dunno about the café but I do know about their ‘Farl’, Tower’s absolutely SUPERB soda-bread. So-superb that we’re prepared to drive 20+ miles to stock up on it - it freezes surprisingly well. Nor do we AT ALL understand the service-moans below. Over the last few months I’ve only been served by 2 people, both of whom are as helpful, quick, friendly - and nicely- jokey - as can be. What the moaners moan-about makes us wonder if maybe the problem is with the moaners rather than with Tower’s nice staff!

Was charged 3times on my card for our meal after returning back to my table and asked to re present my card 5 times as transaction had not gone through! We were a table of 4 and when our food arrived I had ordered a PLAIN half roast chicken with chips and found that the chicken was infused with lemon and herbs and was curtly told that all the their chicken dishes were lemon infused. I am allergic and therefore couldn't eat it and was then told by the shift leader that I "couldn't read a menu properly" after more ranting from her I was eventually offered fish & chips which I accepted. Another at our table ordered a mixed grill which arrived with unidentifiable items on the plate. These items were so burnt and on complaining it was taken back to the kitchen and returned with 3 complimentary sausages on top and offer of a free cookie which was declined. On moving the sausages out of the way it was found that the rest of "the grill" had been even more incinerated and was now just carbon. We then asked a refund and did without this meal! The shift leader at this time was extremely rude and very condescending to me especially and I had to get up again to get the refund on to my card. By this time I had been up from our table 6 times and used 5 different card machines. In the past I have dined and had drinks there and had no problems and this review is highly edited but this visit was a nightmare!!!! I would tell everyone to run in opposite direction. The empty tables around us were by this time not bring cleared after 1hour and 30 mins. Disgraceful!!

Avoid at all costs, I asked for a carrot cake to be heated( I have done this numerous times before) first guy said we can’t (I think he was training- so no problem) other guy said yes let me take it for you. The coffee took 5 to 10 minutes so carrot cake was cold, I asked for a re-heat and was refused after spending £18 plus for 2 coffees and 2 cakes. He said the chef recommended it cold - I can’t eat cold cake as it’s too dry and I have no saliva due to cancer treatment - do I feel like explaining this, no. I was here to collect a winter coat, I treat myself to something every year, never will I frequent House of bruer again, extreme reaction ? - No. I said to coffee guy I’ll speak to manager he replied “good luck then sir” I’m fuming.

I would give two stars for the food and one star for table etiquette. We were unimpressed when we sat down to a table setting of basic low-quality, stamped-out flatware with sharp edges. Three of us ordered meat (duck, pork and beef), the other fish. No alternative, appropriate knives were brought to suit the food, nor was the cutlery replaced after the starter. There were splotches of dried food debris on the underside of all the placemats, which apparently never gets wiped off when they are stacked. The food itself was okay, but portions were on the small side and overpriced for what it was, e.g. two slices of duck breast, 1" slice of sea bass, very little vegetable to accompany. The chicken liver parfait starter was good but came with only three small slices of toasted baguette and bread was £6 extra. There was an abundance of wait staff operating on high-speed settings. We had trouble understanding what kept so many staff on the run (literally) given the restaurant was not full and could have been disruptive were it a romantic dinner for two. We just watched the show. Overall, a four-star restaurant should pay more attention to detail, quality and cleanliness, if it wants to have a four-star reputation.

Last time I was here the fish and chips was really good. Afraid to say this time my wife had the fish and chips and it was cafe standard at best. I had the mac and cheese and I have to say this was the worst mac and cheese I have ever had in my life. Microwaved with what little sauce there was at the bottom of the bowl. The parmesan was probably fresh about a week ago and been sitting out since then. We won’t be bac. Pity as we are local. Staff (waiter, bar staff and receptionist) were pleasant enough though and can’t fault them at all.
