The best restaurants in Fife Central Scotland

Outstanding dinner in historic coaching inn. We had the fried brie and duck breast appetizers. I had the venison casserole which was one of the best dishes I've had in Scotland. If staying at the inn, make a reservation at the restaurant. Highly recommended.

Can't rate these guys more highly and the staff, had nearly everything off the menu and would gladly order every item again and again, staff are always great when we're in and always look forward to visiting

Super friendly staff and all the food is brilliant. And they’re dog friendly. Highly recommended.

The food was delicious and staff very good. Great gluten free food and deserts. We enjoyed everything. It exceeded our expectations.

We popped in for lunch after being given a recommendation and we were delighted with everything. From a warm welcome, great service, bustling atmosphere of happy groups of people through to a smashing lunch - we felt throughly spoilt throughout.

This is a regular for my friend and is well known to the owners. We started off with ham hock soup full of flavour and delightful taste of ham hock. To follow I had a cheese and onion toastie. To accompany the meal I had a large hot chocolate. We would recommend this establishment to anyone and will definitely come back.

Enjoyed both lobster and crab rolls from here . Amazing tastes ! Loved how we booked and collected later that day as we did some exploring . But you can just pop along and see what is on offer and get straight away . ... fab and highly recommend

First, Crail is a quaint town with great views. Lots to offer here but Reilly Shell Shack was a must on our list. My grandson had not had crab or lobster before. So he and I had one of each to try and compare. For me a seafood lover, it was the BEST. My favorite in the UK. For my grandson, nothing will compare to this, the taste, the experience, and the town.

Had lunch here based on Tripadvisor reviews and I totally agree with the excellent rating for this super cafe! Busy Saturday but quickly seated, order promptly taken and then fantastic tomato and basil soup, egg mayo sandwich on lovely brown bread with salad, cheese and ham toasties with crisps arrived for us to enjoy! Substantial portions filled us up all day on a visit to the University Open Day. We will be back!

Great food, collection times usually about 15 to 20 mins and staff are friendly and very efficient.

Go every now and then and get the same thing to be charged different prices each time (always a takeaway never sit in) , only writing a review now because this time our lunch was £17.20 for a toasty and a panini, it was not a toasty it was cosy bread and the panini was dripping, the pasta and salad was wet and the crisps were soggy, not happy at all

Best breakfast in town. Great service and very friendly. Great choice of food and drinks. Been a couple of times and it beats 90% of cafes/restaurants in Dunfermline. Would definitely recommend cafe on the cobbles Dunfermline.

Superb. 4 guys on a golfing trip and this was a great find. Nice vibe inside the restaurant and casual decor. Service was excellent - beers and wine ordered, and I'm not joking, at our table within 30 seconds. Food delivered promptly and it was authentic Thai full of flavour. Would happily return.

What a disappointment. I found the Bothy at Boglily on TA, loved the look of the place, the gorgeous photos of cooked food on their site and the good reviews. We are doing a road trip and this was going to be our Sunday morning treat. The car park was jammed with cars and we saw people standing in a queue to pet baby goats. Upon entering the inviting Bothy and asking a young man for a table, we were told that we couldn’t bring our dog in. Fair enough. Not every dining establishment is dog-friendly. Though I was a bit surprised as the restaurant is in a buffalo farm, there’s a petting zoo and it’s in the countryside. The sun was shining so I asked if we could order our meal and sit at the table on the deck, directly next to the door of The Bothy (see photo for proximity). The young man’s response was that they don’t offer takeaway. I queried whether a table one step from the door qualified as takeaway. It reminded me of the TV ad with the man trying to buy potatoes at a farm shop and being told that he can only pay with digital currency. People taking themselves so seriously that they don’t think of the customer experience. We had driven up from our holiday cottage at Kinghorn especially to get a nice cooked breakfast from their lovely menu, so my surprise and disappointment were apparent. I was directed to the outdoor kiosk they call the Milk Bar to order something from their limited selection. We ordered one Double Cheese Toastie with fries, a latte, an affogato milkshake ( made with buffalo milk ice cream) and a scone, which was on their menu. The two lovely servers told me that they don’t sell scones outside and I would have to go to the Bothy Café to get one. When I explained that I had been told up there that I couldn’t get anything from them takeaway, the young woman offered to go get one for me. They were both very sweet and I apologised for my previous grumpiness. Unfortunately, it wasn’t worth the trouble. The cheese toastie and fries were served in a cardboard tray. The toastie was on “cheap white bread” according to my partner. I didn’t taste it. The fries and the milkshake however, were excellent. My scone was dry, cold and crumbled into breadcrumb texture when I tried to spread some butter on it. The crumb was impossible to pick up and eat but my dog liked it. It wasn’t worth eating for me as it then began to rain and we had to head for the car. I can’t help but think that the very cheerful, welcoming and upmarket website promises more than it delivers.

Tasty sandwiches, pizzas and calzones - the ingredients taste fresh and the basil pesto is lovely. Cannoli are also good and worth a try here. Only downside is that they are takeaway only since the shop is small.
