The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

My partner and I came so we could have a last meal before it closed. We arrived at 12 because we reckoned it would be busy with it being the final day. We were told the kitchen didn't open until 12.30 so as we had found a seat, opted to have a drink. We ordered food at 12.30 (pie & chips and a burger) and over an hour later it eventually arrived. Also people that came in after us got served before us. No apologies for our long wait. It is maybe a good think that it has closed now.

Bring Andrew back!! An ignorant staff member named “Dan” served me today. I asked for a latte and received a dire cup of coffee. There used to be a young man Andrew who would already have it made for me coming in. Brilliant coffees, however, times have changed and Dan is not the man!!

Signs all over the place saying saying they clean tables between diners. Nope!! Waited for ages- had to go ask them to clean our table! Burger was cooked to within an inch of its life- tasteless but we were starving and had already paid so ate it. £1.95 for a can of urn bru is disgusting-400%profit!! I’ll not come back- and you’re my local!!covid has taken so much but no effort here to make anything easier - for staff or customers!!

Absolutely awful, this place would be better closing its doors, stopped here yesterday for lunch with my wife as it’s always been great,, however once we entered the building we realised what a mistake. The so called manager needs to wake up, the place is a shambles. The main buffet section was blocked off with chairs and a little kiosk was attempting to sell some miserable hot food options, most of which was unavailable. We had potato and leek soup and it was dreadful. The sandwiches tasted as if they had been made up for a week. The dining room was filthy with food all over the floor. Given that this is popular tourist stop, what a terrible impression it gives of Scotland’s food and drink industry. We will not be back.

Dobbies Milingavie is by far the best restaurant connected to Dobbies by a mile. Been here three times now and the food is absolutely delicious. The staff are amazing and do their utmost to make your day such an enjoyable experience. Lasagne is absolutely delicious and friends had fish and chips and macaroni cheese washed down with a fantastic latte. I absolutely can't fault anything about the place and after reading some of the reviews I absolutely can't understand the negativity. Please give it a go and I'm sure you will enjoy it the way I do.

Stopped by for lunch and had the lentil soup which was great. Decided to treat myself to the £5 raspberry pistachio traybake cake- which does not taste of either. It is lemon loaf traybake with cerise fondant and a few pistachios sprinkled on top. Looks better than it tastes, very disappointing. Far too sweet.

Food was good but very overpriced. We were quick to be served but did not get checked on once food was served and plates were not all cleared from our table until after we left.

Food ok but the coffee & decaf coffee was abysmal we will never get coffee in the restaurant ever again.

Not been for ages forgot how good it was,soup was lovely,and the toasties and chips were nice.prices have went up a bit,but thats the same as everywhere.

Visité aquí para el desayuno en el camino para un vuelo. La comida estaba fría, particularmente las croquetas de patata que obviamente habían sido cocinadas congeladas. A pesar de estar frío, el huevo y el morcilla estaban demasiado cocidos. Teniendo en cuenta que el precio de la comida en el aeropuerto es probablemente el doble de lo que es la ciudad, esto es pobre, por decir lo menos. Así que no volveremos a desayunar allí de nuevo.

Won't accept cash ... then won't accept cards. I tried to get a coffee here a few weeks ago and tried to pay cash as my phone had died. They told me they couldn't accept cash - only card payments. I was annoyed and disappointed. Today I ordered a coffee to be told they can only take cash as their card reader isn't working. I'm now very annoyed and very disappointed.

As one of the filleters that supple lows I must say best fish n chips in Aberdeen 2nd to none....5star service can't thank you and your wonderful staff enough

Really good Spoons particular mention to Chloe the Manager who I always f8nd helpful pleasant and professional . Pleasure to visit this establishment.

Fancied a lunch …sat down outside…got a menu from the shop (strange system)……checked it out and quickly decided no way ….i don’t mind paying if i thought it was worth it but £9.90 for a baked potato….you are really ripping it ….how much is a potato ?..50p ?? Think again at your pricing policy

My story is very similar to Louise L (July 2024). Met here with friends for coffee/catch-up/a browse/lunch. We all ended up with parking fines. Saw none of their 'obvious' signs - buried in a hedge is NOT obvious! Tried phoning for assistance - totally dismissed. Tried appealing - got a set script in response. Very expensive day out! None of us will be back.
