The best restaurants serving British food in Fife Central Scotland

We popped in for lunch today, greeted at the door by Elise, very friendly and welcoming. We ordered at the bar and served by Leanne who again was very chatty, friendly and informative. We had the haddock which was excellent. Kids fish bites and a pie. We all thoroughly enjoyed our food. Service was quick and food presented well. Restaurant was clean and warm. Thank you for a lovely welcome and great service.

We had never been to Pittenweem and our accommodation was three doors from this wonderful Tavern. From the first night Alan , the owner and his lovely wife, Leslie were so attentive and friendly . We were cautious due to my wife, neing a coeliac but Alan produced some amazing gluten free meals, including fish and chips with gluten free battered onion rings. I must say that the helpings size were on the large size nit so tasty. We tried different meals each night and every one of them was as tasty as the first one. . I would highly recommend this tavern, but it is more than a tavern. Ambiance is pleasant and seeing locals in there was great . A very enjoyable time. Thank you.

Shiv is the bollix make every sandwich with love and care crysta is the best needs more money

Lovely pub lunch with five people - everybody enjoyed their meals. And the dog even got a carrot from the kitchen as we had forgotten his treats. Great location next to the 18th at the Old Course.

I visited on a pretty quiet Saturday. The fish & chips was cooked freshly for me, therefore was advised by the gentleman of a 10 minute wait. Chatted to the gentleman whilst waiting who was very friendly & had good chat. Took my fish and chips back to the car as it was a miserable day. Lovely, light crispy batter and fresh flaky white fish. Chips were ok, nothing special but nothing to rave about. Just chips! Overall it was tasty and I’d definitely return.

In Sainsbury's today probably the best of the supermarket cafe's in the Kirkcaldy area, ordered a quick bite, which was a Filled Chocolate muffin which was spectacular. Good chocolate chips with the filled liquid chocolate inside! brilliant. Nice and Cheap. Only issue was the table i sat at had several stains on it. Other tables I noticed weren't the cleanest but better than Morrison's cafe . Comparing it to Morrison's cafe I would much rather choose Sainsbury's cafe. Sainsbury's cafe overall is much better

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

After two trips to collect an order, as they did not accept card payments and didn’t think to say this when order was phoned in , the food was undercooked and soggy, have been before and food was ok but this was barely edible

From the moment we checked in Sandra couldn’t have done more to make us feel welcomed. Nothing was too much trouble (she even checked on a family member when they were suddenly taken ill). Fantastic service, food and cocktails were delicious, will definitely be returning, cannot recommend highly enough.

Great fun night, staff were wonderful. Locals were friendly. Food fantastic, lots of options and great if you have allergies, big meals we had the steak and ale pie and good prices. Not long waiting times for meals Great atmosphere. Highly recommend and would go again if back in Cupar. As 2 kiwis travelling we had fun with the Ozzie waitress, (sorry all that talking and we didn't ask your name) and Russell. Thank you for an excellent evening!!

Staying at the Hotel du Vin for four nights. We usually choose not to eat dinner in the hotel we are staying in but we arrived on a Sunday evening and we’re not sure what time we would arrive so thought it was the safe option to book at the hotel restaurant. The food choice and quality and service were all excellent, we were very happy to have decided to dine here and would not hesitate to do so again.

If you want your food on a Saturday night please place your order on the Wednesday before. Slower than a week in jail .

Stopped here for a quick bite to eat whilst walking the coastal path from Shell Bay. Was good to find this cosy and warm pub on what was a miserable day weather wise. The staff were welcoming and friendly, and the soup and toasties were really tasty. Toilets were clean.

Went here for my breakfast whilst staying at the adjacent Premier Inn. Breakfast was self service. Only took scrambled egg from the cooked buffet which was rather solid and lukewarm. Staff rather disinterested in customers.

Don't visit The Elizabethan for food too often and usually it's a solid 6/7 out of 10, however this visit was a disaster. Whilst I take into account that they appeared to be short staffed, the main issue was that both the restaurant and the toilets were filthy. We sat a what could best be described a make-shift booth for 2 (table 105), which had sticky handprints up the wall on one side and a healthy layer of dust and grime on the other and many hand and finger prints up a perspex screen. This wasn't a one-off, the other 2 or 3 booths were exactly the same. We had a 45 minute wait for 2 main courses, which when they did arrive the order was partially incorrect and lukewarm. Our server did come to our table to apologise for the wait time and advised that this was due to how busy they were - there appeared to be around 10-12 other diners. We both had the hanging chicken kebab which was dry and lacking in any flavour. The "Lemon & Herb sauce" had the consistency and look of garlic butter and was the warmest thing on the plate. When the main courses arrived another drink was ordered, however the only place this appeared was on the bill. Whilst paying this was highlighted, as was the experience. The additional drink was removed from the bill, and 25% was taken off the bill as an apology. Not the usual experience when visiting The Elizabethan but certainly won't be rushing back.
