Wheatsheaf Inn Restaurant in East Ayrshire

Menu offered plenty of choices and the food is lovely. Nice decor and cozy. Very friendly staff.and reasonably priced.

We were a wedding party of 22 the service provided was first class we had a room to our selves with adjoining bar nothing was to much trouble ..the service was quick and very efficient also the food was excellent all across the board I would highly recommend this place and would not hesitate to use it again for any other upcoming events..We wanted somewhere small and intimate and The Wheatsheaf Inn fulfilled our requirements ..A great big Thankyou goes to Martin and his staff for making our day special

We stopped here en route to our final destination, having researched in the area first to find somewhere dog and child friendly. The initial impression on arrival - a relatively dated interior and empty except for us - didn't set our sights particularly high, but we received a warm welcome and were pleasantly surprised at the diversity of fare on the menu. We ordered from the children's menu for our daughters - garlic bread starter followed by sausages and mash - and from the set menu for the three adults. My husband and I had starters - goats cheese and pate respectively - whilst M-i-L had just a main course of lasagne. We were astounded at the speed of arrival of starters, and even more astounded at how delicious and well-presented they were. The mains arrived equally expeditiously when we'd finished the first course, and were equally impressive. The two girls then partook of ice-cream (great!) and brownie (a little dry). The staff were friendly and attentive throughout our visit, and happily provided water and a warm welcome to our young dog. All in all a great experience, and one we very much hope to repeat in the future.

A Friday supper after a long absence in this cosy inn, having booked a hour before. Prawn cocktail followed by Gammon steak & chips which were very tasty. The others had soup & chicken dishes which was enjoyable. The meals arrived in a timely manner with just one server. The overflow dining room was closed on this occasion. The village is getting busier with parked cars etc. Arriving/departing via the M77 is another option.

What a hidden gem! We decided to go here for a birthday meal but was hesitant with the mixed reviews......glad we went! Staff are welcoming and it was a nice and cosy liitle restaurant with a pub next door. Food didnt take long to arrive and was amazing. Tasted brilliant, even the children manage to eat it all. My partner had steak pie (portion was big, steak was to die for i was told) 1st child had a burger & fries and 2nd had lasagne (they loved it), i had haggis neeps @ tatties with the most tasteful whisky cream sauce iv ever tasted. I loved it that much i even treated myself to a dessert (i never have desserts) but the millionaire shortbread cheesecake was amazing. If never been here, go give it a try.....the previous reviewers must have just went on a bad day (which we all have) will definitely be back ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Have eaten here before on one occasion. Tried to ring for three days before hand to book - phone never answered. No email or other way to be in touch. Group of friends meeting up so arrived at 6pm for a table of six. Two cars in the car park Met by disgruntled rude unhelpful unwelcoming chap. No tables available Given this close to Christmas it’s great they’re busy but to be turned away in such a rude manner, when we could see all the empty tables, was a total let down.Turned on his heel with a shrug - no apology - nothing - and left us standing there. Called another local restaurant - superb service, fab food, great atmosphere and much busier than this place. Sadly he needs a customer service update and there is no way any of will darken the door or consider going. Being busy is one thing - rudeness and abruptness is another!

We hadn’t been to the Wheatsheaf for years but were looking for somewhere for a large family gathering for an anniversary. We were allocated the private room at the back of the restaurant. The staff were friendly, the room was a little chilly but once we were all in there it was soon toasty. The service was decent enough, although my meal took that long some of our party had almost finished theirs. A few of the meals were wrong but in all fairness the food was good. My MIL has booked for us to go back again in a few weeks for a big birthday, except this time she’s been told they can’t guarantee the private room we had before (despite there being no other big bookings at the time of her making the reservation) which I find strange as it was me who booked the previous get together and I was guaranteed the room. I’ll leave a follow up review after our next visit ….

Visited for lunch with family. Waited a while before any staff arrived. Young girl didn't seem to know what she was supposed to do. Good selection on menu but portions were very small for price and we ordered from main menu. Cajun chicken only had a very small piece of chicken on it with a little rice and a tiny tub of salad. Fries were too hard to eat as overcooked. Haggis, heaps and patties although tasted ok were poorly presented, was like someone had built sandcastles with a small pot of haggis, heaps and tatties and just plonked them on the plate. Servers had no concept of space at all when serving and I constantly had plates and behinds in my face when serving our table and the one next to us. Pavlova was rock hard so could only eat a tiny bit of it. We also waited ages for the bill once finished We came away still feeling hungry. Shame as could have been so much better, won't be back anytime soon as very expensive for what we got.

Lovely village pub with great menu to cater for all. Seated in the bar area it was clean and welcoming. Great country music playing in the background. Service was polite and professional. The food was pipping hot and fresh. As always a lovely lunch

Recently went to a pre birthday celebration lunch at The Wheatsheaf Inn Symington. What a great experience we had right from the start. We were welcomed at the start and shown to our table. There was a wide choice of items on the menu to suit all of our needs as on this occasion there were some of us in the party with delicate palates. While the décor of the place might be old world the food was not. It was served hot and the quality was first class. Would we return ? Most defiantly !

Good atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. Been here many times, never been disappointed with anything we've chosen. Always delicious

Have visited on a number of occasions and food was great. Husband always Cullen skink soup. Today it was watery, hardly any potatoes or smoked haddock in it. £7.95 a bowl. Sorry had to complain. I had burger with came with French fries. Felt I was at Burger King. Sorry won’t be back in a hurry x

Another great lunch in this beautiful Gastro Pub. Always has great Scottish fayre. My wife had Skullen Skink followed by smoked haddock I had liver and onions followed by apple crumble and custard. Great warmers on such a cold and drech day. My friend sausage and onion followed by apple crumble and custard. My cousin had a Haggis, needs and tatties with a cream sauce followed by sticky toffee pudding.

I frequently dine out at the wheatsheaf. The reason I keep going back is because the service is top class and the staff are all friendly. The food is excellent and you never leave hungry. The menu provides you with a huge selection of choice and I never tire of going there. Because the standards are so high that is why I return all the time. High praise to all the staff at the Wheatsheaf.

Been at The Wheatsheaf a number of times over the years and food always been good, however there seems to be a dip in food quality since my last visit 8 months ago. I had the cajun salmon which was very salty. So much so l couldn't eat it. The salmon came drenched in a sauce which was lacking in raster also, and to top it off it had a mini basket of chips dumped in the middle of the sauce.. Nothing Magor but definitely a touch to detail needed.. However lm not sure l would return of my own accord..

Booked a Christmas dinner here at the end of Sept. Upon arrival, we were shown to the back room in the restaurant with two other small tables and absolutely no atmosphere. There wasn’t as much as a Christmas napkin or decoration on the table, and for £65 a head I don’t think that’s much of an ask. We ordered our food at 1:30 and and waited almost 50 minutes for a starter. I can understand they would have been busy however not one member of staff approached us to apologise over the delay or offer us anymore drinks. The food was ok but was expecting a lot more as we waited as long! My partner then ordered coffee which was dumped infront of him and spilled all over the table and the young waitress simply walked away. The staff had a terrible and rude attitude, not a bit of chat or merry atmosphere amongst them! Not best pleased having almost spend £600 for us to have a family Christmas dinner in here! Would not be rushing back here after being recommended by friends.

Went here with a family of 10 for our Christmas Dinner. Was the only place we could get booked for Christmas’s to accommodate out table size had been here a few years ago and could remember having a good meal there. However, upon arrival we were put through a room In the back. No Christmas decorations anywhere not even a Christmas napkin on the table. So straight away no Christmas atmosphere. Not even a merry Christmas for the staff. Our order was taken from a set menu as you would expect for Christmas and as we knew prior to booking. However we waiting over 45 minutes for our starter. Bearing in mind we had an infant with us. No one had come to to the table to apologise for the delay. From a set menu you’d expect a speedy service but no. The man who took our drinks order first time had forgotten one of the drinks and with no staff in sight we waited the 45 minutes for him to come back to the table just before we even had our starter to say if we wanted anymore drinks. After telling him we’re still waiting on the first one for someone. His reply was “well you will get this one”. Absolutely appalling attitude and extremely rude. No apology or anything. So after the 45 minute wait for the starter. We waiting a further 45 minutes for the main and and 30 minutes for desert. Not the kind of wait you’d expect for a set menu. And even worse whilst trying to entertain an infant. The food itself was ok. But as you can imagine after waiting long periods between courses your expectations become bigger. The meal was finished off with coffee. Which was literally dumped on the table from a young girl who was clearly raging that we said yes to coffee when asked. Again dumped on the table and spilled no apology or anything. Clearly none of the staff wanted to work there that day. Which in turn their appalling attitude feeds back to the customers themselves. Not one for leaving reviews. But I felt I have to as you can imagine it upset our overall Christmas. Appalling attitude from staff and appalling atmosphere. Not a Christmas Dinner you’d expect. Especially when paying an overall total bill of £650. It honestly felt like one of those restaurants you’d see on “Gordon Ramsay Kitchen Nightmares”. As the restaurant needs a severe shake up. I feel sorry for those poor chefs through the back cooking all those meals, as they will be getting let down from the staff at the front of the house. Unfortunately because of my experience I will Not be back. I wouldn’t be surprised if there are more reviews like this to come and the restaurant itself will go under due to the way it’s being run and loosing good paying customers.

A very poor meal of tough beef, and not much in the way of accompaniments at all. Very disappointing. Not enough potatoes, no roasties for Sunday lunch. Service dire. I know it’s hard to get staff, but really?!

Visited the pub at 5pm ordered our drinks and food I had the potatoes skins very bland if honest my wife had the chicken strips which looked lovely . For mains I had the cajun chicken burger which to say the least was just a chicken bread butterflied with no flavour at all in a horrible bread bun . My wife had the chicken and haggis which she said was amazing to be fair . My son had the fish and chips which he finished saying was amazing . For the cheese board was bland 3 cheeses 2 butters nothing else . My son had ice cream all in all the standards have really dropped at the pub.

Visited with husband, daughter and 3 yr old grandson. Husbands meal looked amazing and tasted the same. Daughter steak pie look the same and she said it was lovely. No burgers for the wean.ordered chicken burger for him. It was chicken breast flatten and fried put on dry burger roll. Looked yuk. I had scampi, presentation looked terrible. Salad and coleslaw on small dishes size of 50p piece. I would recommend salad on side of plate (bigger salad portion) and coleslaw in bigger round dish . Visited many times and always had lovely meal . Wheatsheath get a grip and listen to reviews

Cant fault food but service was disgusting, the manner in which the man I’m assuming is the owner spoke while taking order and when picking up was awful, wouldn’t use again purely down to this man! Surely if you want to keep a business going you should treat your customers a bit better. Pick up only service just now and no signs to state where to go etc, they think people have to be mind readers!

I found the Wheatsheaf by accident but...what a find. August last year was my fourth visit...from Newcastle. The food is excellent, the staff fantastic and the location wonderful. I cannot recommend this venue enough.

Great food, smashing service from our girl at the table, but the guy bringing our food didn't really want to be here

Had an amazing meal tonight fir my daughters birthday could not fault food or service outstanding took advantage of the government deal 7 of us all had 3 courses plus 2 drinks each all for £100 couldn't beat it x

Well done Martin, Marnie and team! Had a fab day in the beer garden yesterday ☺️ You made it run so smoothly and it was very organised with the gel and one way systems in place! Food was great! Looking forward to coming back! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Went here today, initially for soup and a sandwich but when I looked at the menu and noticed Beef Olives, my mind was made up. A fabulous luncheon, albeit it that the dining room wasn't very big. Certainly go back again

We had our 1st date here it was lovely food so we returned for anniversary and again great meal. Thus quickly became 1 of our favourite places to eat. Great value great meal until last time we ate here i had lasagne and chips and my partner had fish. Both meals were average at best and swimming in grease. I dont like to cause a fuss we ate and paid. Both felt bad after with grease just swimming around our systems. We havent been back since as that did put us off. Maybe was a different chef of he was having an off day. Might return one day to try again

Visited here at night time for a meal and got a two for one mains deal when booking we then came back again few days later for lunch. Both times we had lovely food, nice and quiet, we felt very comfortable and the desserts are just amazing ! Prices are good and they have great deals on their facebook pages and we are considering returning with our children this weekend as they have a kids eat free deal on.

Been going here for a number of years food always great and a good choice on menu large portions high end pub food.

Called in for lunch on Hogmanay whilst out a walk. Service was great, fast and lovely sitting in front of a roaring fire. Food was really nice and large portions. Would definitely recommend.

Booked the Wheatshief as a surprise for my wife her mum and her brother and boy was not disappointed it’s got a lovely Real Coal Fire which was making the the room so cozy after getting the drinks in we opted for just a main course I had their home made steak pie which was the best I have ever tasted the rest of my gang left clean plates as well toilets spotless and great service Can’t recommend the place high enough if your passing through the A77 Killie to Ayr section call in you will be hooked by the place we will be back 10/10

Had a lovely meal on Christmas Eve, braised steak was amazing, service was great and quick. Can’t fault it. Will definitely return.

Went in for a meal with my friend, not once have I been in n they’ve asked for id, ordered my meal and the woman told me to get out but my order still went though but they didn’t give me a refund? Absolutely livid

Had a wonderful meal here with family. Super quick service. Coal fire was roaring... menu varied and we all enjoyed every bite. The tablet and toffee sundae .... well omg..... that may just have been heaven ❤️

Great roaring fire old world pub. We visited for lunch . Great selection of food on menu reasonably priced. Food very tasty especially steak pie. Friendly and cheerful service . Well worth a visit.

Awful service, don’t have a selection of wines and food not to a good standard. For instance I ordered a cheese burger the bun was cold and hard. Avoid this place!

Excellent beer and service . Food great and a special thanks to Brett for sorting out our meal efficiently and with a smile 👍🏻👍🏻 Much appreciated . Would definitely go back .

We were a party of 28 booked in for an early evening meal on a Saturday. The food was good, the service was efficient, especially as the restaurant was very busy.

Having not been there for over 20 years met some friends there for lunch. Very dull and dated inside. Service was very gruff and server smelt strongly of cigarette smoke. Only ordered tap water to drink, and soup and sandwiches. Food was ok declined a sweet not a great choice. Decided to go elsewhere for coffee. Don't know how this place is so popular. Don't think the toilet walls and skirting had been dusted this year. Certainly won't be back.

Not a great building, but it was nice and quiet for breakfast, and good, friendly service, and tasty bacon butty

We enjoyed a meal with friends yesterday at the Wheatsheaf. Food quality was very good, and the service was friendly and efficient. We will definitely return soon, and would recommend the Inn to all potential patrons.

Popped in here on a Friday night for dinner. Really should have booked before but we’re glad for the tables outside. Menu varied and prices reasonable for portion size. Only let down was the lack of service with a smile and also felt forgotten about because we had opted to sit outside and order food. Accommodating when paying the bill as we decided to split 4 ways.

I asked for a smaller portion of steak pie for my daughter (6 year old) and was quite rudely told they don’t do this. Fair enough but maybe work on the way that you speak to a customer. A simple ‘no we don’t’ in a tone was extremely abrupt and on the rude side. Adult portions of roast beef were very small and I previously remember the portions being on the large side! I would have said that it was barely adequate, maybe they were running out of beef but compared with the portions of every other meal this was rather disappointing. The quality of the food was excellent and the beef tender. The potatoes were ‘wet’ and not of good quality. (The mash that the beef sat on) the vegetables were well cooked and very tasty. The gravy was delicious and full of flavour. Compliments to the chef. I thought that bringing the children’s meals out after the adults was not great as children are usually the priority in a family and as one member was very young I would say this could have been rectified. (The sausages were well received and looked to be of a high standard.) This happened with the dessert also. The sticky toffee pudding was delicious and the hot chocolate fudge cake was good and was a generous portion. Overall a good meal but I felt that it was not as friendly as I previously remember and the tiny portion of beef compared with every other meal was extremely disappointing.

Stopped off for lunch on our way back from Troon. Sat outside as it was a lovely day. Lunch was yummy. Usually go for steak pie but it was so hot outside so opted for sandwich and soup. Staff friendly and attentive. Would recommend.

Nice little pub for food if your driving by. Tommy has been coming here since he was 18 and swears by it. I thought it was good value.

Been visiting this place for YEARS and past few times have been utterly disappointed with it, Xmas day dinner was a disaster, in laws couldn't even eat meat it was that fatty and my daughter actually burst out crying when she saw hers was an absolute disgrace, anyway they took something off bill, but still our Xmas Dinner was ruined, decided we'd try again putting it down to maybe being understaffed as it was Xmas, went back me and kids just, was OK, so again went back again few weeks ago, and will never be back again, owner was soooo rude to us, tutting at my wee boy who's 3, my partner had to go upto bar in the middle of his dinner to get us more drinks which the owner seen and let him.... He was and we all were in the middle of his dinner, i took the beef olives which i always do and they were rotten, wee roast potatoes too were burnt to crisp, not once did anyone ask if everything was OK, so we decided to pay leave and won't be back, totally unacceptable the way we were treated and food has went really downhill, never again

Beautiful meal here yesterday whilst out a drive. Everything from starters to desserts was absolutely delicious and we simply could not fault a thing! Stunning little country pub with great little beer garden! Service was quick and friendly too! Very glad we came across this little hidden gem and we will certainly be back!

We decided to eat here when visiting our Scottish friends. As previous reviews say it is very oldie worldie, probably to suit the local clientele. It could do we a revamp and maybe some low music in the background to create some sort of atmosphere. We didn't feel particularly welcome. Young waitress did provide a good service though.

We invited a couple of friends for dinner and we chosen the Wheatsheaf IInn since we came before and enjoyed our food.

haven’t visited this restaurant in a long time what’s happened ?? Ordered the steak burger and got a dry soggy roll not toasted as it should be just out the fridge I think as it was cold. salad not on the bun but a tiny portion in a tin cup chips were the usual frozen type Burger King style only their burger are better so disappointed used to like this place checking other people’s reviews sadly I’m not alone

My wife, young son and I visited the Wheatsheaf Inn yesterday for an evening meal and were very impressed by the speed and friendliness of the service, and the high-quality of the food. Truly compliments to the chef! Having been to many village pubs over the last year, this is one of the best - the food is prepared and cooked to perfection and presented well. Will certainly be back and happy to recommend!

Returned to wheatsheaf inn after a few years and glad to say it hasn’t changed, excellent food friendly staff and the open fire is just the best, will definitely be returning soon.

A great well above average pub grub, good Scottish cooking, friendly staff and consistent quality. Really traditional pub.

Returned visit to the Wheatsheaf Inn after a few years and very disappointed with our visit.

Had not visited here for many years so thought a return was required. Menu online looked promising. On arrival we were seated quite quickly and our young female server relatively polite but others were less so. Food was average at best. Steak burger itself was nice but I was served the smallest salad I had ever seen. Imagine slightly larger than a 50p coin and the coleslaw whilst fine was a similar size . A prawn salad was passable too. Desserts ordered and a nice sticky toffee pudding with raspberry cheesecake whilst on the small side was nice. I'd say the full meal was a bit overpriced. The decor was old worlde to note. Would we return? No. There's much better in neighbouring towns.

Lovely old building, open fire and a very friendly welcome. Home made lentil soup followed by amazingly good steak pie. No better place to go to for delicious home made food. Lots of other lovely things on the menu.

Starter,main meal,deserts coffee my wife’s birthday,wife had large wine and I being the driver had a can of bru £49.50 great meal will return

What an absolutely fabulous choice......if this is a Weatherspoons I am amazed since it had none of their standard impressions. Instead the food was served as it should be fresh and really warm. The prices highly competitive but certainly an excellent eating out experience, helped too by a Brandy coffee made absolutely brilliantly.....a real pub with just the right atmosphere and full attention to detail by staff and in the food presentation

This was the first time I had been in the Wheatsheaf Inn in Symington. Was taken there for works Christmas lunch. The Christmas menu was very good with a fair choice of courses. The staff were friendly and the service was very good. Everyone enjoyed their meal and all of the dishes served were very well prepared. The portions were a very good size. Would recommend to anyone in the area.

This is a typical wotherspoons pub. Good prices for food and drinks. This is a spacious pub and you can reserve tables for a larger party of people.

Lovely old inn in the heart of Symington - lovely place to go for your lunch - everything is freshly made

Standard Wetherspoons pub which is fine if that is what you are looking for Decent priced standard fare food Big choice of beer all at reasonable prices

This place was recommended. We decided to go for two course menu. Setting was alright but a little drafty. The starter wasn’t great. Very average. The main course was very nice and hot, unlike the starter. The service was just alright. The staff were very pleasant. The toilets needed a bit of a clean and the cleaning of tables wasn’t the best that I’ve seen. The tea after meal was also cold. I will not be rushing back.

Had lunch here with friends, colleague on till didn’t put whole order through so was disappointed when order came, went and spoke to colleague and was told asked without add on which I asked for,

was here when my son and his wife were over from Canada a wee while back and we had a great meal , went back for xmas dinner and it wasn't up to same standard has before it was ok , someone said it had changed hands I don't know if that was true , but it wasn't as good

Although located in a small village, the Inn has a good reputation and pulls in customers from surrounding towns.

Whilst filming an interview in Symington for the day, my friends and I got a little hungry so our guest suggested we try the pub round the Corner which happened to be this one.

Not visited the Wheatsheaf for many years but now living temporarily in the area. Still nice pub to visit, decor not changed. Food nice but would prefer a ‘lighter menu’ which I think could be popular.

Amazing. Holidayed in Scotland for a week and this was- by far- the best food we had! We had a set menu, £12.95 for 2 courses. I had Cullen Skunk, which was amazing!! Smoked haddock and potato soup, the smoky flavour of the haddock contrasted beautifully with the creaminess of the soup. Flawless. For main, I opted for haggis, neeps and tarries with a sweet whisky sauce. It was sublime. The neeps and tatties were smooth and creamy, the haggis felt tender and light. The real star was the sauce. It was heavenly. We also opted for desert: sticky toffee pudding with rich butterscotch sauce and double cream, which was also extremely tasty. The staff were friendly, relaxed and helpful, and 3 courses plus a drink for 2 people came in at an extremely reasonable £48. It was worth every penny. I would urge anyone to eat here.

Nice setting, food well prepared local produced. Good value. Busy due to good service. Fast service. Recommended.

Visited for a late lunch with my friend. Was extremely disappointed.

Had a early dinner here. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The food was very good and it was competitively priced. The only new comment is the veg was very scarce, athought it was very tasty there was not enough. It would not stop me returning.

Went to weather spoons for breakfast. One vegetarian, two eggs, two quorn links, two hash browns, , mushrooms, beans, tomato and toast for £3.50 hard to beat. One large as above but with black pudding, potatoes scone. With unlimited tea and coffee under £11.00. Very hard to beat piping hot and great service.

The Wheatsheaf Inn in Symington serves fantastic food. The service is excellent family friendly also has a lovely beer garden. I have eaten here for many years and have never been disappointed.

Visited for birthday with partner. Always very good. Staff are great,food is good and quick to arrive. Well worth a visit

I had the eggs Balmoral the yolks where nice and runny. Unfortunately the plate was cold which meant it went cold quick. The service was in a timely manor. Unfortunately the tea was awful.

My wife and I are occasional visitors to The Wheatsheaf. On Saturday 26 May dropped in for lunch with two two grandchildren and sat outside in the hot sun - not busy. Ordered drinks, no problem; ordered food then waited for 40 minutes until my wife went up to complain to the owner about time taken for food. Finally got food in a further 10 minutes.

We popped in for late lunch in the beer garden. Beautiful biding with a great beer garden at the back. Service was quick and friendly. Food was very tasty, the potato skins starter was amazing - proper crispy potato skins, burger was homemade and tasty (and no brioche bun which is a big bonus for us!) and I really enjoyed my salad. Well worth a visit, we would definitely return

We had heard great things about the Wheatsheaf, but were sadly very disappointed by our visit,

My first time at this quaint pub restaurant. Friendly attentive staff and the food was exceptional. Excellent value with both eating 2 courses, drinks and coffee for a little over £40. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Brilliant restaurant. Food always quick, great tasting, and superb value. Staff always friendly, and polite. Toilets clean. Staff can’t do enough for you. Visit regularly! Great for a family meal, or a Saturday night out!

We come here regularly for our date nights as we know we are garunteed great food and fast service - last night we had our orders taken and food served within 15 minutes. The lentil soup was to die for and the chicken and haggis (plus the AMAZING whisky sauce) is my go to main meal! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a cute meal out because the staff are always smiling and you never wait long to be served.

It had been nearly twenty years since I had last eaten here so daughter took me and grandkids for lunch. She had raved about the lasagne, my favourite dish, but I decided on steak pie, potatoes and veg. Grandson had a kids meal which he scoffed, granddaughter (aged 2) had lasagne as apparently she had eaten all of it the last time she was there, daughter also had lasagne. My lunch was lovely and hot with nicely cooked veg. Puff pastry was perfect but could have done with more meat, less gravy. I also hate having it served in individual pots but that's a minor inconvenience. When I saw and smelt the lasagne however I was instantly thinking that is not homemade - it was served in bowls which was just as well as it would have slopped all over the place on a plate. Bechamel sauce? Doubt there was any in it at all. I had a taste and knew instantly had either been bought in a shop or made from a jar, and cheap mince too, gads. Granddaughter never touched hers, and daughter (not known for leaving any grub!) left almost half. She said it was nothing like the one she had had a couple of weeks previously. At £13 not really on to be serving at all. Atmosphere was lovely with coal fire, desserts were nice and service was excellent. Just a pity about the lasagne which has lowered the rating considerably!!

Have been here a few times and we have never had a bad meal. The service is always good as well as the food being delicious

Visited for a steak, but unfortunately a very disappointing experience . The steak was terrible, and when advised, the staff response was offhand and disappointing.

After a conversation in a Glasgow bar only a few hours before on where I could get a good steak pie for my Sunday dinner. The Wheatsheaf was mentioned.. I gave it a bash.. half hour from city centre roughly on m77.
