The best restaurants serving British food in Central Scotland

We went for lunch and decided on hot roast pork with mashed potatoes and veg . When it came it was 2 thin pork chops that needed cooked longer . Lumpy mashed dry potatoes , 4 slices of carrots and a lot of peas . Usually we enjoy our lunch here to be fair but it let us down today . We did not complain but paid £24 for it . Maybe we should have .

When open (it has now closed permanently); it was a great wee eating house! We went there often. It will be sadly missed, used by many locals, tourists and organisations as an affordable restaurant.

My aunt recommended this place as I was taking her out for lunch and I had never been. I ordered soup and a main course and she ordered a main course and a dessert. After a wait of about 20 mins the waitress arrived with our 2 mains. I told her I was still waiting for my soup. She took my mains away and I told my aunt to start eating before her food got cold. Another 10 minutes later my soup arrived which was in all fairness, piping hot and delicious. Then another 10 minute wait for my own mains to reappear which was stone cold, obviously just left from its previous visit. THEN another waitress appeared to tell me it was 'my fault' for not asking for the soup to be delivered first as they serve the soup there after the main. Never in my 70 odd years have I ever been to a restaurant where the soup is served after the mains. Also noticed the couple on the table next to us were delivered another tables food. The tables were not allocated an individual waitress and they appeared to just go around the various tables at random. It was totally disorganised and to be told the error was 'my fault' was outrageous. I for sure will never return or recommend and my poor aunt was mortified as this place was her idea. I checked my receipt and this whole debacle took around an hour and a half for a snack lunch. Be warned.

We were staying at Monturpie caravan park in our Motorhome. The food in the restaurant is amazing, we visited for lunch and dinner. The views from the site are breathtaking and Duncan and the staff are very friendly and helpful, we will definitely return.

This is the best place in town for coffee trip and/or lunch. Staff are superb and the food is excellent. Not fancy but, just what you want especially for lunch. Their soups are 10/10

“Absolutely delicious! Every bite was full of flavor, and the ingredients tasted so fresh. The portions were generous, and the presentation was spot on. Definitely one of the best meals I’ve had in a while. Highly recommend for anyone craving quality food and great service!”

This was a last minute booking because we were running late. The staff couldn’t have been more friendly and the food was fresh and piping hot we had chille and it had a lovely heat just after eating it nothing to strong. We had apple crumble for dessert this was made fresh as the dishes were super hot but also amazing tasting will be beck next time am up this way.

Food was nice, but it's still a working mans pub so be prepared to walk through the smokers on the way in

A chef who knows how to balance their flavours and does it well. Innovative dishes that surprise and please. Front of house staff that care and are knowledgable (and know when to go and ask when they don’t). What’s not to love! Two minutes from Oban centre is no excuse not to go!

This place used to be good, but it's not customer friendly any more. Breakfast HAS to include black pudding - no substitutions, even though most people don't like the stuff. Perhaps they over ordered. Anyway, it means you either get a rather small breakfast for £9.55 or you get a normal sized one and throw 20% away. A minor point, perhaps, but shows a particular attitude to customers in general.

We did stay at Airds, having been once before many years ago. It has changed hands twice since then and is very different. The guest lounge was rather airless and largely unoccupied during our stay. Our room was comfortable if a little dull, on the ground floor looking onto the car park at the side of the hotel and accessed through the small bar and two difficult small fire doors. The bathroom will benefit from a couple of twin hooks for towels, which I recommended to reception when I left. The bed had a 15 tog quilt! It was as if we were in the Arctic - admittedly summer has not arrived this year but we felt pinned to the mattress and reorganised with other covers we found in the wardrobe! The dinner on the first night was lovely and we were joined by our daughter. The food was tasty and generous and the service was good. The second night was not in the same league. The food was not so good, and the service was dreadful with a very long wait. We understand there was a breakdown in communication between server and chef. I did tell the hotel how I felt and I am sure they will be turning things around as soon as the staffing levels can be fixed. Everywhere is having shortages at present.

Nice friendly atmosphere when we dropped in for a pint after the fishing at Carriston Reservoir up the road quite a few couples in when we visited . They do not do hot food at the moment .Parking is on the street of this quiet village .The bar staff are pleasant and there is a good feel to the place . They have a Facebook page .The P and the I have fallen off on the signboard

All three meals was just warm , very disappointed, we were the only three people in the dining side . Waited what seemed a while and to be served Luke warm food , we sent it back and they redid it , wouldn’t go again . The waitress was lovely . But food was a big let down

A great cafe serviving freas food and a good range of drinks Such a good find on such a small island which we enjoyed cycling around having crossed from Port Appin Recommend you stop here if you are on the island also visit the museum Staff superb

A really delicious meal served by friendly attentive staff. We cannot recommend the Glen more highly! Plenty of veggie fish and meat options and an absolutely amazing homemade Sicilian cheesecake! Thank you for a great evening to celebrate our anniversary.
