The best restaurants in Scotland

Had read this place did gluten free so stopped in before some sightseeing. Very disappointed. They only do gluten free meals. I asked about snacks or cakes but absolutely nothing available. This is strange because they have gluten free bread and could easily do a sandwich. So I sat sadly with a drink whilst my husband ate. Needless to say we won’t be returning.

Food is always hot and fresh, staff are friendly and always looking to have a chat

1st Visit to Bute, looking for relaxed,budget friendly place for Sat evening dinner, arrived 6.45pm perfect time for last orders at 7pm... Really efficient, friendly service. Looking at food other diners were having was fun as all cooked fresh to order, piping hot & tasty. Bring your own bottle for £3 corkage charge , a few tables brought their own wine along. Great menu variety 😋, highly recommend as a lovely relaxed dining experience which won't break the bank.

Pre-Reservamos una fiesta de 10 para las 8 pm los domingos. Llegamos a tiempo a un restaurante casi vacío. Tuvimos que pedir para pedir bebidas. Tuvimos que pedir para ordenar algunos poppadoms. Tuvimos que pedir a los platos principales. Se volcaron a otros clientes y les dijeron que el restaurante estaba completamente reservado (estaba vacío aparte de nosotros). Los poppadoms estaban deliciosos. La cerveza de barril se había acabado. Sospecho que también se les acabó la comida. 90 minutos después de llegar aún no teníamos nuestros principales. Con un tren para coger les dijimos que tendríamos que salir en otros 5 minutos si no había comida. Platos (calientes) llegaron. Todavía en la comida después de otros 10 minutos. No hay explicación de la gestión de la demora. Finalmente, nos dimos por vencidos, pagamos por bebidas y poppadoms, y nos fuimos para tomar el último tren con el estómago vacío. NO UN RENDIMIENTO IMPRESIONANTE.

Good beer and on a Saturday good pub for Thistle fans

The food was excellent, the service friendly and efficient, and we were lucky to get a table without booking.. Even on a rainy Sunday night! Very interesting and varied menu.

Nice and delicious sandwich with a huge amount of meat in it. Tasty home made sauce. Must try :) strong coffee as well. something really scottish

I ordered today whole roast Duck. The menu on the front door is showing that 31£ but I was charged 35 £. I asked and was answered “ price up” 😂😂😂 Ps: also all menu in restaurant are showing 31£ !

My cousin and I went here whilst on a comedy night in the town hall in Airdrie for her birthday. I kind of don't want to tell anyone about it cos it's an absolute jewel! We ordered from the pre-theatre menu. It's hard to find many restaurants anywhere who still do this and it was perfect for us. The meal was substantial enough and very tasty. I had chicken Tikka chasni and my cousin had the chicken tikka. We ordered 1 of each of peshawari naan bread and rice and we shared them between us. We both wanted each but we knew it was way too much and we would struggle to eat it all. The service was spot on, especially considering there was 1 waiter on and the restaurant was busy. We'll be back next time we're in Airdrie. It has been such a long time since we had such lovely food and great value for our money. £33 with drinks for both of us... that's so unheard of for a 3 course meal in this day of the greedy proprietors. Well done Razias! No one even comes near you for value for money, service and just the right portion size.

We've been meaning to visit here for some time. The food was lovely and the service was great. I had the pumpkin soup, which was delish, hubby had the cream of mushroom, which was also lovely. I had the fish and chips, hubby had the chicken goujons. Fish was lovely, and the huge chips were very nice. Hubby's chicken goujons were massive, very tasty, as were the fries. We both had sticky toffee pudding, soft drinks to wash it all down. Bill was just short of £40. Amazing! A lovely restaurant, with very polite staff. Can't wait to test the rest of the menu 😊

Lovely to sit outside opposite the pub, you get a few plastic cups.

The Staff at cool gourmet were very friendly, the menu and food were excellent , quaint little cafe in Stonehaven just off the harbour, best Cullen skink I've had in scotland will definitely visit again when I return.

Atmosphere not as friendly as the other dining options in Braemar, but menu price wise was on a par. Husband’s venison casserole came in a small dish with some mash and no veg. My chicken kebab had a huge portion of chicken and I enjoyed that and the salads but the chips definitely felt reheated rather than freshly made - as I also had rice and a wrap perhaps safer to not serve them with the dish. Maybe the burgers are a better bet here, but I would pick the other Braemar options in preference.

Authentic Scottish and traditional food in a nice atmosphere and stunning views. Old fashioned service, a delight. Up close and personal with Sir Walter Scott!

Consistently high quality take away food with great offers available on their website. Highly recommend 👍
