Whey Pat in Fife

Didn't have food. Good choice of real ales and great entertainment.

Stopped in for lunch, staff were great. I'd been in touch prior to my visit as had a specific request, staff catered to it and were very welcoming and friendly. I'd definitely go back on another visit

Great pint of Deuchars, well more than one. No need to go to Leuchars stay close to the west port.

Went for drinks with my sister and a friend and was screamed at by the barman for swearing…. In a bar. I think he’s in the wrong profession, will never step foot in there again.

It was good. Good choice of ale. Service was ok and welcoming enough. Felt more of a locals bar but we would go back. Well located and a good starting point for a tour of what St Andrews has to offer

No food yet till kitchens are altered... However .... still great atmosphere.. great real ale... and wine.

Lovely little boozer! Nice range of beers, knowledgeable bar keep.

Excellent and friendly atmosphere, best pub to host large groups of friends. Food portions are massive and the staff are really friendly. They also have a darts board which make it an excellent game to play with a group of friends.

We had a nice drink here on a Saturday night, sitting in the back room (past the area where people were enjoying a game of darts). It was comfortable and a nice atmosphere in a proper pub, rather than a bland corporate chain. The bar manager was very friendly and welcoming.

My partner and i popped in for a drink and we recieved a really warm welcome from Keith. We found the pub to be cosy and a good atmosphere and Keith was very attentive. We would recomend this pub and we will be back.

Was up for overnight stay, popped in here for a dram, good pint great night

Cool spot to watch sporting events.

Great place for a beer and glass of wine traditional Pub with sports on TVs for watching Golf as its the home of golf or football

As 4 adults visiting from Canada the pub was okay. Only food choices were nachos or pizza but the drinks were decent. A band was setting up as we were leaning but they were instrumental only. Many of the patrons looked a little shady but were harmless. Definitely not an upscale pub but good for a few pints.

Visited for a few drinks on Sunday afternoon. The pub was very busy due to football game - Celtic v Rangers. I have to say the two staff never stopped, especially the woman who acknowledged everyone and apologised for any wait while serving another customer. To keep a busy bar running and serving food was a credit to the pub.

One of the best pubs in town. Staff are amazing and pints are well priced for this area of fife. Barry poured me the best pint of Guinness I’ve ever had in Scotland.

The Whey Pat Tavern is the best pub in St. Andrews without a doubt. The service is excellent, the staff are very welcoming and the drinks are always of the best quality. The pint of Guinness I was served was served with such a good quality, of which I haven’t seen in St. Andrews before. Overall the Whey Pat deserves the recognition as the best pub in St. Andrews hands down.

Good old style pub. Reasonble prices.

What is the point of updating the kitchen time, if it closes at 20:30 anyways.

The whey pat is the social hub of st. andrews. The bar staff will always greet with you a big smile. They have a great selection of drinks - and seasonal cocktails! If your looking for an authentic pub full of heart, this is the place for you.

Over priced for a very ordinary bar

Nice pub, been going for years and always a good spot for a pint! Absolutely gutted that the nachos have changed, not up to the usual standard of the WheyPatchos which I used to love! More cheese and bring back the chilli please ;)

Great pub. Sit and have a pint and make some friends. Hopefully for you Dave is there.

Busy pub, but bar staff on the ball with quick service

Fantastic place with good service.

Only 3 pizza on menu and nachos

Lovely bar person(female) ,food we had was over and above what we expected.

Wonderful place for a pint. Sadie was the best highly recommend

WE LOVE WHEY PAT! IT IS HOME TO MY FRIENDS AND I. AS STUDENTS WHO GRADUATE SOON THIS IS THE PLACE THAT MADE MEMORIES AND FRIENDSHIPS. FOREVER GRATEFUL AND FOREVER IN OUR HEARTS.

Went in with a few friends for a drink. Olivia, the bartender was friendly and chatty with our group. It was very obvious she is a people person and made us all feel very welcome. The venue is cosy and comfortable and creates a great vibe. After a few drinks we decided to get some food to set us up for the night. We ordered a few pizzas and a sharer of nachos. The food was incredible. I would highly recommend the Whey Pat for anyone in St andrews looking for a venue with friendly staff, a chilled out vibe and great food/drinks.

Good food even though I wasn’t expecting to eat. Service was lovely, kind and heartfelt staff. Pints obviously good

An amazing pub with an amazing set of staff and regulars! Great selection of ales! Go ask for a CAMRA discount! Really recommend the nachos!

Sadie is the best bartender in the world, she brings a smile to our faces every visit. It wouldn’t be the Whey Pat without her!

I have been to this pub several times when in St Andrews. Everyone is so friendly. A go to pub.

My experience at the Whey Pat is made so special every single time by the lovely Sadie. I adore her and she’s so kind and lovely, a true ray of sunshine. Will be back purely to see Sadie!

No real ales available on our visit . Apparently having problems getting a delivery . Visited 04/04/23 . Nice pub though

Almost 3 months later, still the most ideal pub if you'd like to join the locals or soak in a cosy, idyllic wee taste of the almost East Neuk. Lovely warm welcome, each and every time, gives me content, happy staff vibes, always a winner.

Good friendly bar with all sports available to watch and fair prices and choice of beers.

Very nice bar Good selection of beers

Nice spot for a pint. It was quiet when I arrived, but then quickly about 25 students who all knew each other arrived. It was very lively then, in a good way

Really like using this pub with friends and so glad to return from break to see the assistant manager is no longer there. She was so rude and was always lording it about the pub not doing not much work. She also only ever showed any interest in male customers and was just rude to us girls: I’m a happy customer and so are all the girls that she’s gone. Brill wee pub and much better now.

Great wee pub. Staff were great and the drink was good to. Pizza was fantastic definitely worth a visit when in St andrews

Usual Scottish pub hospitality. No real atmosphere and pushed out the door as soon as the bar person rang the bell. They couldn't wait to get home even with our still half full drinks. And Uk pubs cry victim for why they are all closing. Irish pubs are thriving on the other hand!

I caught up with friends who were coincidentally were in the area too .My inlaws live in Crail and definitely coming back great ales nice and warm friendly staff .massive tvs brilliant. BACK ASAP welldone !!!

Excellent pub, with great selection of beer, fabulous service and terrific atmosphere

Popped in for a drink and it was a great welcome x Great little pub!

Nice pub for a pint. We stopped in for one before heading home. Friendly staff, clean tables, quick service.

Great beer selection, welcoming staff and a great looking bar. Prices are some of the best in town. Will be coming here regularly for a casual pint

Great pub! Lovely back room with large screens for watching sport. The staff are really nice!

Nice ales and lager in town centre by West Port.

Great cask beer pub in St Andrew's.

A lovely pub with a chill atmosphere and good service. Very comfortable chairs. Homely feel with nice decorations and pictures, also unreal tv content. (Bartender was cute af as well)

nice pub, enjoyed my stay here. area outside is very cosy although wish i could have stayed out for longer

Best Bar in St Andrews Absolute love the place Friendly Staff regulars are good also food is outstanding and very reasonable priced. Highly reccomend for anyone visiting St Andrews

Nice wee pub live football food expensive

Very nice cosy pub food looks lovely great pint good atmosphere

Good selection of beers, great ambience

Great staff, friendly atmosphere

Beer good and hospitality.Let down by kitchen closed no food.

Lovely visit, it was nice and quiet Friday 4pm and were reasonable. The highlight was that they are dog friendly and our two were treated like kings :)

Very good traditional very local pub in St Andrews.

Just went in for a pint was a bit loud for us at the time we went in .Seemed OK food qas typical pub grub .

Attended the pub on a Tuesday night. To begin the pub was pleasant and a fine place to have a drink with friends. Around 8pm the back room where our group was sat started to be occupied by musicians which in its self would have been OK. What the issue was is that then everybody and his dog decided this was the place to sit! The room temperature must have been 30deg but not a single window was openable. This mixed with the fact that nobody seemed to care about personal space or property made the rest of night unbearable. If this is a regular thing surely it can be done in a more organised way instead of cramming people in like sardines whilst Covid is on the rise again. I subsequently contracted covid after this night 🤔

Great trad music session on Tuesday night. Really good and friendly too random musicians too.

This local Scottish pub ticks all boxes for a good evening out. All staff members very friendly (especially B) good darts, food and drinks make for w great time. Highly recommend.

Bar staff were very friendly. Enjoyable atmosphere, I will definitely be coming back. Alcohol prices are cheaper than the rest of the pub/ bars I visited over my time in St Andrews, I wish I found this place a couple of days earlier.

Lovely food and the staff were very friendly I have took ma kids in for lunch the burgers were good and the toasties as well

Quiet when we visited so no atmosphere Better pubs in St Andrews to visit

Great pub, great service and a good selection of beers

5 star awesome pub loved it .. xx

This is always a great pub for a pint at whatever time of day and Lyall and Mark have done a great job of keeping things going before they could get a new chef.

WHEY PAT KITCHEN IS CLOSED FOR MEALS UNTIL THE FIRST/SECOND WEEK OF MAY. Just learned this in a phone call rec'd from ass't mgr, 2 hours before due to arrive for 3pm lunch reservation. Kitchen closure not mentioned on web page or in email acknowledgement...

Popped in for a few drinks while visiting St Andrews, what a week gem of a pub. Lyall that served us was lovely and very helpful.

This is a great pub good variety of beers and good service. Plenty of televisions for sports

Honestly the best place to go for a few pints, staff are always friendly and pour the best pints, if you're in St Andrews and looking for a few drinks and a great night out, this is the place! They also have a great variety...

Absolutely outstanding pub staff are friendly and inviting. They have a great knowledge of all beers and are always happy to help. I would recommend this place to anyone wanting just a quick pint or a good night out. Do not miss

Absolutely amazing place walked in and was immediately greeted in a warm and friendly manner. Beer selection is second to none and always felt welcome. If you want to go for a drink on st Andrews this is a must visit

Visited this pub for the first time as our usual was full, and we'll come back again: friendly staff, good choice of draft, lots of tables.

Good clean accomodation..bit far out from centre

Poor start, as the barmaid didn't recognize the real ale I asked for. I was then asked if I was "by myself" (no explanation, but I read that it's seating only) and upon confirming that was allowed a drink. Fair enough. Given my change, five pound note and the rest. The beer is slightly on the turn, bit flat (I won't name the brewer). After finishing my first I go to order another (likely draft) as the rugby's on only to find that the note has ripped in the time it's gone into my pocket. I inform the barmaid. She waits to inform the manager. Who is insistent that I wasn't given a damaged note as he checked them all this morning. I say that it was fine when handed over - but there's obviously something faulty with it for it to collapse in going to my pocket. I've been honest, but left to feel like a liar. Not what pubs are about. Dread to think who they'd blame if you took them up that there was something wrong with the food or drink.

Local pub with a welcome for everyone 😀

Lovely friendly pub! Food was lovely, especially the Balmoral burger. Excellent choice of gins to wash it down. 😁

Popped in a couple of times in a recent break to St Andrews. Great place to meet and have a drink with friends. Good selection of ales and spirits. Great service from the bar staff.

Great pub to relax in. Very chilled out place to be 😁😁😁😁😁 I discovered the Whey Pat Tavern 5 years ago and i visit every time i'm in St Andrews. They also serve food too.. ( Nachos or pizza ) they may have more to offer on their menu.. Braw place to watch footy too folks 😁😁😁😁

Nice wee pub with polite friendly staff. Had a really good afternoon recently. Will be back soon!

Lovely wee pub, a great selection of drinks on offer and the food is great for the price. Staff very friendly and polite. Can’t wait to come back

Friendly, good service, well worth a visit

Pleasant wee pub friendly staff also sell food never tried that tho

The only place around you can get a pint at 10:45pm. Everywhere else it's past last order

Manager closed the kitchen, refused us food

Good bar with good beer at reasonable prices.

Good service 👍 friendly staff good atmosphere for an early Tuesday evening

Was fine. Staff good & available, but was quiet.

My dad and I stopped in for whisky at the end of the day... ended up staying for three of them. Smaller selection of whisky than some places, but they hit all the right notes in what they do have. Good range of beers, too. Very friendly bartender and manager. Would recommend to anyone visiting St Andrews.

This may well be my favourite place to stop off now. I had messaged ahead because of a specific requirement, and the welcome I received was warm and friendly. I spent a lovely couple of hours in a very comfortable pub, enjoyed a couple of...

Can be hit or miss depending on night/staff, but generally a reliable boozer

Cosy place for a drink after the golf👍

A great pub, amazing service and the food was top class

Good original pub, great selection of beer and shots. Good live sports viewing screens. Good weekly entertainment.

The service we received from one of the bar staff was appalling. She did not understand my order on our second round of drinks nor it turns out with a few others. It seemed as though she was either drunk or on drugs. It took...
