The best restaurants in Scotland

Excellent food and portions. Will be back. Value for money.

Excellent food, friendly staff and cold beer. What else do we need? We had a really nice evening out and always look forward to coming back.

Convenient to the M90. Plenty parking and nice and airy inside. Clearly very popular which is a good sign. Staff were efficient and friendly. Chose the toasted coronation chicken ciabatta which came with a very nice side salad, included cous cous and red slaw which was a nice touch. Scones were clearly homemade and thankfully hadn’t been stored in the fridge (which ruins them in my opinion). A nice lunch and would definitely return.

Not even 1 mile away from the address and refused to take order because it’s a one way street. Shocking business ethic. 0 STARS

Absolutely beautiful Chinese food. Tonight we ordered a big selection of stuff to try this place out. Salt and Chilli Chicken, chicken chow mein, small portion chicken balls, curry sauce, chips, fried rice. Very generous portions and everything was cooked perfectly. Cant fault a single thing. This will be our new GO TO chinese in Ballieston now.

Had potential but was awful This was probably a great venue in its day but in need of a total revamp. Attended a wedding in November 2024. Absolutely freezing throughout the whole venue. Several complaints about this were made to staff and advised that heating didn’t go on until the evening!!!! It’s November in Scotland - seriously!!! No obvious radiators and eventually small electric heaters were brought out but nowhere near enough to make an impact Damp smell in main wedding area. Decoration throughout needs updating including the dingy carpets. Area where we had our meal was nice enough but again absolutely freezing. Wedding guests were sitting with winter coats on ! No WiFi and poor phone reception. Cleanliness is another issue. Several glasses and tumblers were filthy and some of the wines glasses on the dining table looked as though they hadn’t even been washed. This place has potential. The views from the main wedding venue are stunning and the food was ok but I was wary about eating in here due to the lack of cleanliness. The whole place is in serious need of a serious clean and revamp Dread to think what state the kitchen was in, or the bedrooms - glad we didn’t stay ! I certainly won’t be back anytime soon !!!

I call it Debbie's place - you'll know it when you see it! - said several of the locals on Islay. A large group of us visiting the island had spent the morning dotted across it doing various different activities. I'd asked in the brilliant Islay Natural History Trust where locally we could grab lunch and was directed to the Bruichladdich Mini Market. The place itself is run by Debbie, her mum and her sister. It's the ort of place that is the lifeblood of islands the world over - half grocery shop, half cafe - all welcoming. Debbie's sister was in charge when a group of 15 of us rocked up unannounced. This would normally not have been a problem - plenty of outside seating - but that particular day the ferry had been cancelled, along with much of the stock for the shop and cafe. Undeterred the staff there made us feel welcome and pulled together a lunch which went down very well with all - children and adults alike. Think sandwiches and toasties with great coffee and a good choice of cold drinks. They also serve some amazing cakes - I'm told the rocky road was fab, I know the chocolate cake was! Although initially under pressure when we all turned up, the staff seated us happily and we had all eaten within about 15 minutes of arriving.

The best thing to have ever happened to the Kinlochleven area. This fabulous Chinese takeaway replaced the dreadful fish and chip shop on the site. The food is unbelievable, portion sizes will ensure you have more than enough, fantastic staff and I can't truly express how helpful they are. People are traveling from the much wider area to come to this gem and I can only say that I totally understand as it's the best Chinese takeaway I have ever been to.

Popped in here for lunch with my wife and her mother. On entering, we were greeted by a smiling Amy, who welcomed us in. I proceeded to order the soup and egg mayonnaise toastie, with a Mocha and white chocolate caramel slice. All were fantastically tasty, especially the soup, which was very thick pea and ham, and piping hot, 11 out of 10😋My mother in law opted for a Latte, which she thoroughly enjoyed. My wife had tea, which was made with leaves, and a chocolate slice, which she enjoyed immensely. She also had a latte, which she also enjoyed. I had another mocha. The premises were welcoming, spotlessly clean, prices were unbelievably cheap. I can also honestly say that the service and banter from Amy, and Megan, Niece and Auntie, was tremendous. I would thoroughly recommend this place, and will be back in the near future.

As it is named, the firepit, you expect some decent Meat from a bbq to be served. No steaks, but a good burger can solve the problem, so their best "the smoke and soul", Meat served on a soft role,clearly not from a bbq fire , not a piece of salad , onion or tomaten, but i must admit crispy Fries. As that is their best seller, then the expectations of clients are low. Next time it is back to the old Brown pub with the traditional pub meals.

Stopped here for quick cuppa and snack. So impressed - service was excellent, very friendly and really quick. Good choice of food and they heated up my scone without me asking. Can highly recommend.

After reading excellent reviews of this place we decided to try it for coffee and cake on the Saturday which were excellent so we booked for Sunday lunch. We both had an excellent cream of mushroom soup accompanied by a lovely roll. My wife had a superb macaroni cheese with hand cut chips and salad. I had a great lasagne and garlic bread. Excellent staff and the sea view whilst having lunch was great. Definitely a worthy of a return visit.

The coffee was delicious. However, a normal heat one was luke warm and the extra hot lattes were just hot. The home baking was amazing! We had a lively time and left very satisfied.

The food was absolutely disgusting no taste what so ever and the staff where very rude the man called Bartek shows no care in his food and I felt very ill a short while after consuming the meal. If ever in Campbeltown I advise not to go here as you will be very dissatisfied with there food and the price they charge for it
