The best restaurants serving British food in Monifieth and Sidlaw Angus Central Scotland

Stopped here for lunch on Saturday afternoon. We drove past it twice as it’s set back from the road and we missed the sign outside. The staff were welcoming and friendly. I ordered the salmon from the specials and my husband had them steak and ale pie. Both were delicious and really good portions.

We had to wait 45 minutes for starter, but when we asked about it they were excellent and got it straight away and all gave us all a free drink, steak night excellent value and I like that you can mix n match menus

Went for a celebration meal. I had the Sunday roast which was a reasonable portion and delicious. Other party members had the fish and chips which they enjoyed. Seafood linguine went down well also, full of fish. Lovely views of the fishing loch and also got some sights of a wedding party.

Slightly noisy table beside us but other than that great

Staff friendly. The best resource in the tired place. 2nd visit in a few months as in the area. Previous visit. Venue was very limited first time due to delivery issue of chicken. This time arrived at very start of lunch service. If I had looked at the carpet first- I wouldn't have ordered. Even my husband said it looked as if it hadn't been hoovered for weeks. It looked rank and had very visible debris. If this is the public facing area, I cringe as to the state of the kitchen. The play area was closed weekdays due to staff shortage- in school holidays. This is false evonomy.. Witnessed at least 2 grouos leave because of this which means lost revenue. The 2 for 1 mains deal is misleading. The mains differ significantly from those on the main menu. Eg smothered chicken barely covered and no coleslaw. Prob worth the money but would have preferred more cheese/ bbq sauce and trimmings so should have paid more. The toilet sinks look dire.. The sealant round them looks shocking and makes you more aware of just how run down the place is elsewhere.

This cafe has really gone downhill. Went in for a cuppa and cake and could not believe the prices for the cakes. Extortion. £3.99 for a tiny slice of cake and £1.10 for a small teacake. Used to love this cafe but don't think I will be back.
