The best restaurants serving British food in Scotland

We often visit the garden centre to break our journey often purchasing items from the shop and plants and leaving with a coffee to go. This was our last visit !!! I asked for 2 sausage rolls but changed mind after ascertaining the price ? Was shocked by the smirking by the member of staff at my change of mind. Then when I picked up my to go flat white coffees 1 cup was much lighter than the other and queried the difference and was told that’s how they come. One cup 2/3rds full and one 1/4 full. After stating again that’s how it is the asst. said I could put milk in ? Even when asked why one so empty and the other not she went off and grumbled to another colleague I was left both disappointed and angry by the behaviours and service and just wanted out. It lead me to view reviews, which summed up my experiences. Please don’t bother responding with the apparent usual response as clearly nothing is done to resolve the root causes and your reviews will no doubt continue on decline

When it takes less time for your food to arrive than it does to order it something is far wrong! Self service is great when it works. It does not work here 20 minutes standing in a queue to place my own order, the woman at the till was so slow and seemed to be completely unaware of the situation. Food was decent enough and arrived after 10 mins but the service, was terrible with dirty dishes everywhere, no condiments on the table and the place was very cold. Same story in the shop. Huge queue for the post office but no one serving the other till. Typical Inverurie food experience "that'll do" attitude that 99% of people are so used to they are now blind to it.

Excellent service from entering the cafe , always met with a smile and speedy service. Huge choice of meals all marked up regards allergens which is great .

Food was excellent. My wife is gluten and dairy intolerant and Mikes Fish and Chips catered for her allergies very well. We both had a jumbo haddock super and the food quality was great. We’ll be back!

We had a lovely meal here, the vegetarian options were great - I had a sweet potato, red onion and seed tart with chips and salad and it was delicious! The interior is gorgeous, it's clean and modern yet still has old fashioned touches. I will definitely be back!

The fish was so over cooked it was inedible. And there was dozens of bones in it. Avoid at all costs.

Gorgeous outdoor dining which is what attracted us on a hot July day after Loch Ness shops nearby. Tiny menu and pretty expensive, cashing in on the tourist trade I assume. Ordered a cheeseburger for £15 and to say it was basic is an understatement. The chips were like nothing I’ve ever seen, looked like someone had hacked away at a potato. We also had a tuna melt panini, could have played a long game of “spot the filling”, disgraceful for a £10 panini. First time I’ve paid £6 for a 330ml tin of IPA. Service was sloppy, the young lad looked like he wanted to be anywhere else and could barely be bothered to speak. The only redeeming feature was shortbread which was delicious but at £4 for a small slice - so it should be! I can only assume they are not relying on repeat custom and cashing in on tourists who will pay the prices, just for the location.

Wir waren im Rahmen einer Schottlandrundreise im September 2024 zum Glück nur für eine Nacht in diesem Hotel untergebracht. Von aussen sieht es nett und gepflegt aus. Auch der Empfang war sehr freundlich. Das war es dann aber auch. Das Gebäude ist so verwinkelt, dass wir und etliche andere Reisende auf der Suche nach unseren Zimmern länger über die Flure geirrt sind. Sämtliche Bodendielen, auch die im Zimmer über uns, knarzten bei jedem Schritt laut und deutlich. Das Waschbecken mit einem Hahn für warmes und einem Hahn für kaltes Wasser befand sich ausserhalb des winzigen Bades direkt im Zimmer. Was den Flachbildfernseher betrifft: Jeder PC würde sich schämen, wenn er mit so einem kleinen Monitor ausgestattet wäre. Was uns und etlichen anderen Gästen dann aber endgültig die Sprache verschlagen hat: In der Dusche hing an der Wand unmittelbar neben dem Duschkopf ein elektrischer Durchlauferhitzer, der aussen am Bad erst eingeschaltet werden musste,bevor man warmes Wasser bekam. Jedem deutschen Elektriker würden bei DEM Anblick die Haare senkrecht stehen.Etliche Mitreisende haben sicherheitshalber am Morgen aufs Duschen verzichtet. Das Abendessen war ok, das Frühstück hingegen äusserst dürftig.

We had a very unpleasant visit at this establishment. When entering, my friend moved one step further from the “please wait to be seated” sign to make some room, and was immediately scoffed at by a waiter. After ordering, our drinks were brought after about 15 minutes, and we were asked to pay at this point. We considered this weird but happily obliged. In hindsight, I think this is done to prevent customers from leaving after ordering.. We waited for our food (2 burgers) for about 40 minutes! There were other customers, sure, but most of them only got pastries from the till, only 2-3 tables aside from us ordered from the kitchen. Good that we were absolutely starving when we got our meals, since both the burgers were very dry and tasteless, and would’ve otherwise been left uneaten.

Filthy Hotel. Shower head so diety that we couldn't even shower. Bathroom floor not swept and chair in room so dirty we couldn't sit on it

Booked a meal deal a month ago. Day before arrival got e mail asking if we wanted to upgrade to a meal deal. Arrived to a big electronic display showing restaurant and meal deal. Told at reception no evening meals available we could have a refund. Very poor. Nearest alternative Morrisons cafe (which had practically nothing on the menue or McDonalds. Ruined our stay .

Avoid like a Covid Out Break, First impressions of the out side was what the Hell have we booked , its tired and outdated exterior greated us, As we walked in to the main entrance we were greeted with a closed reception desk with a closed blind and a smell I have never encountered before, and I've done a few jobs in my life. We made the decision to ask at the pub next door about our booking and to be fair the bar made was nice I can't falt her, she gave us the room key and told us where to go but they weren't serving food this night, thank God the local Indian restaurant got our custom. On inspection of the building it was as tired on the inside as it was on the outside. The floor was moving in places under the carpet. Fire door not closing on the landing and the fire escape door on our floor would need to be kicked open in the event of something happening. The room was clean but am glad am close to my partner as the toilet door in our room slid close and we had to put the TV up loud when It was in use. We never went for breakfast, so we could make a quick escape in the Morning. It's well over priced for what you get.

The used to be award winning restaurant and takeaway. It was greasy non crispy batter that was slimy and difficult to pick up to eat. Chips were tasteless and greasy. Portion sizes very small. Not worth the money. Very disappointed.

It would be nice if they could provide what is on the menu, but was told "We can only serve what we're sent". Lots of things not available
