The best restaurants in Scotland

New chef standards have dropped went for breakfast daughter had pancakes that were not cooked properly and we're too thick bacon was precooked which made it overcook,we won't be back,we were regular customers as well!

Probably one of the best Indian menus around. Very friendly and attentive staff with a reasonably priced menu. Drinks also very well priced unlike some venues that load up their pricing. I would highly recommend this establishment in rural Ayreshire.

It’s about time we wrote this! We love The Station Hotel! We live locally and we’ve eaten here so many times over the last 10 years - sometimes as a couple, sometimes with family, sometimes with friends, and we had my partner’s surprise 70th birthday party here earlier this year. The front of house staff, led often by Lynne, are always very attentive, chatty and helpful. Gordon, head chef, and his team, ensures that dinner is always expertly cooked and portions are a great size. Bar staff also make our regular visits pleasurable and fun. Also, Murray, Lesley and Ross always offer us a warm welcome if they’re around . Downsides? None! Thanks to everybody for making each visit enjoyable.

The chorizo breakfast would have been good except the chorizo was burnt and the dressing from the chimichurri soaked into the toast making it soggy. On the plus side, the scrambled egg was very good and the breakfast brioche had good cheese and bacon but one didn't notice the sage.The coffee and tea were good, the latter in a proper pot.Social distancing was enforced properly.

Food is always hot and ready for pick up.

Not as expected. Preparation could have been better

Met up with friends from Hove and we were all impressed with the standard of friendliness and obliging service we were given . Food was excellent and the scones homemade. Very dog friendly. At the shop bit were an excellent array cheeses and local produce. All in all a very pleasurable experience and I'm glad I chose this place to entertain my guests.

authentic Italian restaurant with lots of charm & traditional vibes. The early bird 2 course menu is excellent value for money at £13.50 pp with all the classic dishes on. We opted for the regular menu, i had the calamari fritters & sea bass with mushroom ravioli ( was lobster on menu but they had run out). The fish was cooked to perfection & the ravioli was amazing in the red pepper sauce. My partner had panzenolle ( probably spelt that wrong but it was pieces of pizza dough with a garlic mayo dip ) & steak diane. He said the steak was one of the best he had, very tender. The restaurant was full, which apparently it is mostly, good atmosphere & lots of attentive staff. very good👍

This place is a good bit out of the way in the Royal Deeside area, but it’s well worth seeking out for a tasty breakfast or lunch. We stopped off on a Sunday lunchtime. As usual, it was busy. But thankfully, having been here several times, we knew to book. Saw some disappointed looking people who hadn’t. The food here is consistently great. The firm favourite for us, is there soup and panini combo. A true bargain for just under a tenner. What’s so great about it, is that the soups of the day frequently change. On this day, I had the carrot and coconut, my wife had the tomato and basil. Both were fabulous. Bursting with flavour, as we have come to expect. My panini with tomato, pesto, and mozzarella, was delicious. My wife’s roasted vegetable and hummus one, just as tasty. The service here is excellent. The ideal balance of friendly, efficient and knowledgeable. It’s a fairly compact place, with space on the ground and balcony levels, as well as decent sized outdoors area, for summer days, and people with dogs. This is a firm favourite for people in the know. But be sure to book in advance.

Nice family / home cooked style restaurant in a BYOB / front room environment. Staff welcoming and attentive, food decent - as long as your expectations are measured (good food, cooked competently) - didn’t disappoint. Nice ambience, lovely views if table at window, and relatively well priced. Good menu.

Direct view of Necropolis! Great location, but you have to find a good parking space yourself. It takes about 10 minutes to walk directly to the center. The rooms were nice and tastefully decorated. Beds very comfortable. Breakfast is served in the room (yoghurt, fruit, granola, cheese, butter, fresh bread from the on-site restaurant). However, three half slices of bread for two adults was a bit small. Highly recommended accommodation for a great few nights in Glasgow!

Food is really great. Best curries in the Southside. Staff are super friendly and accommodating. We frequently take away too which also doesn’t disappoint.

Lovely deli & cafe to eat in or take away. The Stornaway Black pudding, tattie scone & poached egg in a roll was lovely. The carrot cake homemade and delicious. The staff are so friendly. The old oven is a real feature. Spotlessly clean. It was lovely to be able to buy cheeses from all over Scotland here. Defo recommend and return.

Another top notch feed. Four of us there and a mix of beef and chicken burgers, as well as some dirty fries. All superb. Tuesday was Wi g night so added some wings too (k-pop). Sun-Thu is 241 on burgers/dogs so scored there too 10/10 - left stuffed. Friendly service as always.

Have used Sandstone cafe many times over the years and as usual this time it was a very pleasant experience. Great food, drink and service with a smile. Keep up the good work and see you soon.
