The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

Went with family to have a nice breakfast but were all utterly disappointed. Very small selection of breakfast items and all potions were far too small. I ordered full Scottish breakfast but left feeling hungry after spending over £1, sausages both meat and vegan were very nasty in their taste and all items were below average for an premium price - never again.

Excellent coffee and scone at a very reasonable price. Slightly let down by the toilet which needs upgrading , otherwise 5 stars.

Encontré este gran café por pura casualidad. (anuncia mas chicos). 5 por lo que fue, con mucho, el mejor desayuno que he tenido. Viajé a lo largo y ancho de Escocia y Heather que me sirvió fue fantástica. Acogedor cálido amable Ps Annika era encantadora

Nos alojamos cerca y tuvimos un desayuno de muy alta calidad aquí. Excelente desayuno vegetariano más aguacate y huevo en tostadas. Café y zumo también servido por el personal amable. Un hallazgo definitivo en el Howdens Garden Centre.

We just spent 3 wonderful nights at The Isle of Eriska. The weather was not the best, but we are in Scotland, and that forced us to just unwind. As an older couple travelling from Australia, this was just what we needed after 2 weeks of hectic travelling in Europe. Now feel refreshed and ready to finish our journey. The food was great and loved the meet and greet in the bar prior to dinner. You are given the menu and wine list whilst enjoying your drink and then when you have made your choice you are escorted to dinner and everything is ready for you. The rooms are wonderfully restored and fitted out, I especially loved the mirror TV. All the staff have just been so friendly and happy to engage with you, in particular Sarah, who was extremely helpful and professional.

Excellent fish and chips with the lightest crunchiest batter and juicy succulent fish. As a female solo visitor (walking Ayrshire Coastal Path) I enjoyed the relaxing room upstairs and the staff were ultra friendly.

This cozy chilled cafe is a great spot to enjoy a bite to eat, coffee and treat. I had the three cheese toastie with chorizo which was perfect and my son enjoyed the kids macaroni cheese. We shared a raspberry and white chocolate cookie after. Nicest coffee I’ve had in a while. Staff were friendly and welcoming. We will be back!!

Visited very briefly at lunchtime. Did not buy anything due to the rudeness of one of the two women working there. Asked for a pizza and chips combination thing that was sitting already prepared and snapped at by the woman stating that there were three pizza options. Without telling me what they were I said I would take whatever was nearest. I’d never seen a “pizza crunch” before but it looked horrible and said I didn’t want that one to which I was met with a huffy retort of “well that’s why I asked you want you wanted”. A list of what you do have instead of “pizza and chips” might help your customers then. The shop was swarming with school kids but I am in my 40’s and certainly won’t be spoken to in such a curt and nasty manner which they may be possibly used to using with their younger clientele that won’t tell them where to go in response due to naivety and lack of experience. Walked out without purchasing anything, which I’m glad about as the food looked pretty disgusting.

Our lunch at Table Table was lovely. Stuart was very attentive and unfailingly lovely. He went over and above to make sure our Mother’s Day lunch was amazing. We will definitely be back!

We had been told by others that we should look forward to a high quality meal in an exceptional location overlooking our home city. From the very beginning we sensed that the restaurant was not going to live up to our expectations. The dining area did enjoy good views in all directions, but the furnishings were sparse with hard chairs and no table coverings. We were advised that we would have the table for a strict maximum of two hours. There was no à la carte menu, only a single choice for each course. The description of each course may have been appetising, but the portions were minimalistic, defeating even nouvelle cuisine in terms of their smallness. The service was very slow at times, with the result that we were informed that we would very shortly have to leave as our time had run out, even though we were still awaiting the dessert, not to mention the coffee. To make matters worse, the restaurant was noisy. For such an experience, the price was exorbitant, and it is possible to enjoy much better food in more comfortable locations in Edinburgh. As for the view, that is available for free.

We called in to get food to take to our daughter's house and as usual the service was very good, despite the fact it was a very busy lunchtime! The value of the food is excellent!

We stayed in the HI before a flight out. We had no car so had to eat in this hotel restaurant. The room was fairly empty so we were seated right away. The menu was pretty extensive. The staff asked about food allergies and the chef actually came to the table to suggest appropriate dishes. Nice touch. The food was hot and fresh but not special. Adequate but not memorable. It was a bit expensive but when you are stuck at the hotel with no transport they can charge what they want. Basic but okay. The service was good though.

I have now started working across the road so I thought I'd give this cafe a try and I must say I was not disappointed. The staff are very polite and you don't have to wait too long before someone serves you. The food comes quickly and is always absolutely piping hot. The menu is varied and it is often quite difficult to know what to have. This really is a little gold mine and well worth a visit or two or, like me, nearly every day.

Ordered the steak pie it wasn't cooked enough meat was chuck couldn't put the knife through it. Sent it back got something else.

Where do I start with Stephen's........ Stephen's advertises its self as traditional home baking, it tries to sell itself as something that its not. There are far better bakeries in the kingdom of Fife, people are just too drawn to the brand and make an automatic decision to buy Stephens, yeh, they are everywhere, they have the market, but people need to look beyond the millions of new shops and drive thrus that seems to pop up on every corner........ its a bit Greggs.......... there is nothing traditional and home baked about Greggs and Stephens follows that business model very closely nowadays Products - Dissect a steak pie or bridie from Stephens, wash off the thick gelatinous brown goo that they call "gravy" and you may find yourself questioning the supposed awards they boast ...... anyone with any ounce of bakery skills or food critique could not put these products as "award winning" not a chance, get a Stuarts pie, do yourself a favour and you will taste the difference. Once you defeat the challenge of swallowing the enormous stodge of pastry that coats their low quality filling...... you will need to deal with a day or overwhelming stomach ache and heartburn, similar to what you experience shortly after a Greggs binge Service - When you rock up to the Rosyth HQ branch, you would expect this to be the most well run, flagship store of all Stephens bakeries, the place where service and efficiency would ooze from the front door........... no, your met with inexperienced young staff (not their fault) but cannot service more than one customer at a time, in this day and age, we are probably spoiled by convenience and efficiency with computers doing a lot of manual work for us........... but come on, to wait in a queue for 15 mins because one staff member manages the till whilst the other aimlessly walks around behind the counter carrying out tasks that would be better prioritised to try and get the queues down. Its not understaffing that's the issue, its inexperience, lack of leadership and management behind that counter. Your soul leaves your body when one makes a visit to Stephens and you see more than 3 cars in the car park, you know your in for a 30min wait............ for one............. single............. bad............ steak pie Genuinely, I'm not a competitor, I'm just a normal person, trying to get something decent too eat, Stephens is not where you want to go, yes, you will have the staunch Stephenites, the Betty and Keith's that have used Stephens for 45 years and wont look past it.......... don't be a Betty and Keith, go to Stuarts, or Baynes even, you will be met by experience, efficiency and good quality wholesome food at reasonable costs, your purchase will feel worth it, you wont have to throw half of your purchase to the delight of the seagulls that made the car park their home, whilst you will be doing good for ecosystem of the seagulls, i guess this will be your reward and one that you can take home knowing that you have actually done a good deed for the day and provided sustenance and cater for the wildlife around the car park I think that is all........... oh in fact.......... see when you advertise well fired rolls......... it would be great if you could actually "well fire" them, light browning is not fired, you want a black roll, just turn the oven up a wee tad or let the staff member off that has likely manned that oven for the last 20 years, a roll with some sunburn is not well fired and finally............. your in for a battle if you take on the challenge of the army of "highlander" biscuits that furnish every corner of the branch, you cant move for highlanders. They certainly stand up to their name, ensure you have a gallon of tea or water available or close by, you will need this, every millilitre of saliva will be sucked from your chops as soon as one of these bad boys comes anywhere within a sniff of your face. These should carry a health warning "large quantity of fluid required to even attempt to swallow one of these Scottish warrior biscuits" Thanks
