The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

Great location on the Old Course. Beautiful modern terrace on the top floor with stunning views across the fairways to the sea. So wanted to like this place but were disappointed. Food was standard golfing fare - steaks and lobster - OK but nothing special . Wine list reasonable for price and choice. What lets the place down is the lack of management oversight. Tables with broken legs, jet lagged golfers asleep in the lobby, incredibly noisy ambience all overseen by a well meaning but overwhelmed serving staff. Not what you expect when paying $400 for a meal for two. Dinner took three and a half hours. We had to track down staff to order wine, coffee and get the check. Could be a good dining alternative to the Old Course Hotel but its let down badly by the service. Seems its owned by one of those absentee investment companies and it shows .

We were offered service earlier in the restaurant or the bar. We were joined by another couple for dinner. We were presented with a “special “ menu and the normal dinner menu . Two of us ordered starters and what we thought was an entree from the “special” menu. However is main turned out to be “3” scallops for £9.95. I could have bought a half lobster for that price. We also requested that the dining bill be divided between the two parties and they refused.

AVOID ordering from there! cheesecake came frozen and was advised to keep it I'm freezer till this morning and take out to defrost. it's been 9 hours and still frozen in the middle, has the taste of frostbite so clearly been in the freezer uncovered for a long time. even though its still half frozen it's completely falling apart with toppings sliding of the cake and the topping have a horrible taste to them! also the water coming off it from being frozen has soaked the plate completely and made the bottom soggy! changed the plate 3 times and still soaking everything. very disappointed paid £27 for a tiny cheesecake totally diffrent size to what advised in the website. when ordered had no confirmation from them what so ever we emailed, called, text just to get a reply from them days later this is paid for a birthday and very disappointed!

Best fish and chips in Fife, you can sit in and dine, pizzas I've had take away, brilliant and kebabs are a good size and delious all in all visit this place when you can, service always with a smile, I believe it's a family run business and all the staff are nice 2 past and present. 👌👌👌👌👌👌👌

This was my first time here, and It was very good! My only complaints were that the drinks came a while before the food & that the small breakfast egg was quite greasy. The food tasted great though & the presentation was lovely. The tables were cleared efficiently as customers left & it was overall a rather peaceful atmosphere. Would recommend.

Came here for the first time since Covid and were VERY disappointed. We ordered hot drinks and cakes. The cakes came quickly and then we waited and waited for our drinks for about 15 mins, by which time the cakes had been almost finished. The rock cake was indeed rock hard too!! The staff seemed very unco-ordinated and one young waitress was just aimlessly going about. The tables were really close together again and you could hear the next tables full conversation-no privacy at all. The prices were also a lot higher than before as well-dearer than most other coffee shops. For example £9.99 for soup and a filled roll. Will think twice about returning-the whole experience put us off completely.

Property located about 1 and a half miles from Waverley Station. Hostel accommodation with dormitory style rooms and bunks. Staff are friendly and welcoming, I stayed for 2 nights and felt safe as a solo traveller. There is a bar and a kitchen downstairs. No lifts here and 3 floors so be prepared for stairs!! I was in room 8, which had 10 bunks, room not huge and was hot and stuffy, window only opened a few inches!! There was a fan, but stand was broken and No Where to plug it in!! Above each bed is a night light and phone sockets for charging. There are small security lockers in each room. CCTV in public areas. Toilet and Separate shower room a little cramped, my shower was tepid in the morning but not a bad thing. Could do with a bath mat outside as tiled floors where slippery when wet. Overall the place was very clean, saw staff cleaning all the time! 👍 Naomi on the bar very helpful and friendly! Would stay here again and recommend 👌 Thanks Naomi 😊

We we’re passing through Montrose and decided to stop for something to eat. The Market Arms had a soup and sandwich deal at £5, unfortunately for us the last of the soup had been sold to the previous customers. On looking again at the menu we both decided to take filled sandwiches with crisps a glass of milk and tea for my wife. We were served promptly by friendly staff all in all I was very pleasantly surprised as the sandwiches were nice fresh and tasty. Everything on the menu was very reasonable with quite a number of customers sitting within the premises. Would certainly go in for something to eat again when in Montrose Sandwich £2.70 each Glass of milk £1.60 Tea £2.00 Our total bill was £9 very good value indeed. 👍

We were staying at The Hydro, so decided to take lunch at the clubhouse on one of the days. A nice relaxed atmosphere, very clean, and friendly waiting staff. It’s just the job if you only want a casual snack.

Went to this hotel restaurant with friends on Saturday night. Id booked a table, glad I did as it was pretty busy. Owner was very friendly. The menu was extensive and very reasonable. Food was all very tasty. Would definitely dine here again if in the area.

Fresh fish and chips made to order in a cardboard box you get lots of chips and a large fish best fish n chips in the borders bar none

We had a great night dining at the Grahamston last night. Our server Dawn was excellent! A very valued member of the team im sure! Food was really special and guy with the mullet made me a perfect Old fashioned just like the ones i make at home! Staff make the company! Thank you for a great night, Tash & Jo

Arrived 2.50pm, seated and it took someone 10 mins to come over to explain kitchen closed. The kitchen closed at 3pm. Bought 2 tea, 2 cakes and a juice with little change from £17. Would say the cakes are below average for taste and quality although they charge £4.35 each. A lot of staff doing very little here and the shop is way over-priced for essentials. Judging from previous comments, I imagine they rely on tourists rather than locals for support.

Friendly, warm greeting by lovely staff who delivered fabulous food, was a pleasure to have lunch there, good food selection and very nice hot drinks. Thank you !

Hemos ido varias veces y por desgracia en todo el mundo, pero una ocasión el servicio en la mesa ha sido pobre. la izquierda estar demasiado tiempo y el personal parece perder de vista. Tener que ir hasta el mostrador para pedir la factura es decepcionante, especialmente cuando llegues el personal han desaparecido de sitio. Han continuado volver ya que la comida es buena y con mi anciana suegra. al estar tan escaso en movilidad el acceso también es buena. Sin embargo comenzando a conseguir harto con el servicio lento y la falta de atención por parte de los camareros. Realmente le permite esta down de lugar
