The best restaurants in Forfar and District Angus Central Scotland

Late night dessert stop, great, friendly service and happy to put up with our indecision. Will definitely be back...

Visited with family as they had been recommended by friends. Huge menu and staff were very friendly and polite. Food was exceptional and all at a very good price. Great experience and would definitely recommend a visit.

Good communication to customers and good food.

Kitchen was clearly busy and hard working but the customers were rude and disrespectful.

We both had a very pleasant full breakfast on 29/10/24 in Purdy’s & were served by two ladies who were very welcoming. Good value. Good vibe. We will definitely go back Thank you!

I was served by a very rude young man named ryanm99, he was very immature and at one point stood on one of the tables and done something he called “cube mouth”, the food was also awful and gave me the skitters.

Hi it was excellent stay but I've forgot your phone number Paul if u could give me a call when you get time pal

Fab filled rolls and homemade cakes. Sausages, bacon, etc. all sourced from local butcher, which is a huge plus in my book.

2 macaronis that were split and grainy and I had to air fry the chips back to life😂was told they’ve not had any complaints so there can’t be anything wrong. Waste of 20 odd quid for sure

Amazing fresh fish and the chip are proper cooked. The staff are very friendly and great service with nice clean setup. The window has amazing things like creel and makes you feel as if your in fish and chip shop. Well worth visit.

Building was freezing (guy told me they get told off for it all the time but it was still too hot for him), there was only one fridge of produce so half the menu was missing, and the food we did get tasted terrible, my partner got one of the menu sandwiches and actually said “there’s no way subway can sell something that tastes like this”. I for sure, will never be back.

Always quick never been disappointed value for money

A family get together, 21 of us, without preordering our food must have been a challenge but one that was achieved pretty well in my view. The team were lovely, friendly and efficient. Food, mains and starters arrived quickly and was piping hot, certainly hadn’t been sitting around in the kitchen before being bought to the table. Only two things I’d mention, the batter on the fish and chips was a bit greasy/ not crispy however the fish was beautiful and secondly two of our group are Coeliac so a few more Gluten free options would have been great. The Thali though deserves a special mention, it had been recommended and it lived up to expectations. This is definitely worth a visit, really varied menu, good service with a good ambiance, if we didn’t live over 400 miles away we would certainly be back.

Probably the worst dining experience of my life. Not really sure what I was expecting seeing as this is what some would describe as a roadside dive, but nevertheless I was left utterly broken by this pig swill that passes for food here. It reminds me of my sweet dearly departed Maureen (nearly a year now) and the burgers she would make for my dinner. Her secret method was to boil them for a minimum of four hours. She'd say Steve I love you so much and I just want to give you all my heart in every meal I make. She really knew how to get to me and even now after an afternoon of abysmal burgers from this roadside macdonald I still shed a tear at the thought of my dear Maureen and her boiled burgers. I miss her so much and she comes to me in dreams most nights. It's hard for me to say she's really gone because I still feel her love everywhere I go. I know she and I would have had so much fun sitting together in this pig swill macdonald and laughing at what a terrible place it is, but not caring either way because such places only bring us closer together through shared hatred and laughter. I've learned in my long life that will surely, mercifully, be over soon that hatred always comes from a place of love, and so as much I hate this roadside macdonald and the phony excuses they make to explain why it takes so long to serve their gruel (they told me the grills needed to get up to temperature for my whole two hour visit) I still want to say that I truly love this backwater macdonald because I felt Maureen's presence next to me, and to anyone who is still reading this, that is the definition of love. I miss her so much. Lord, please let this end so I can find myself in the love of her embrace again Steve

Food was good for the price. Staff were friendly with service quick.
