All in all i would highly recommend this little gem of a place to any passers by, it's literally 2 minutes off of the M74, if you do decide to stop in you certainly wont regret it! This is now in my notes and I'll be nipping in for sure next time I'm passing! NOTE; we did not stay the night in a room however if they are anything compared to the rest of the inn then they will be excellent!

As it's Boxing Day, it was hard finding a place that was open for breakfast. Rather than drive…read morearound and wasting time, one of my niece mentioned this place. It's located right in the heart of town just across from the shopping center. Parking was pretty easy in the lot across the street. We happened to walk in at the right time. There were only a few other guest already inside. But once we were seated, minutes later the place started to trickle with people coming in and ended up full. There was a good amount of us which two tables were already situated together. The restaurant itself isn't that big. Two side, main is where the counter and kitchen is with a smaller dining area. The other is mainly dining. The counter was where all the fresh pastries were on full display. Let me say, they all looked amazing and some were ordered to try before we even had our meal. Dessert first obviously. Menu wise, there was a mixture of everything. Started off with a pot of tea and an ice tea. Asked for a slice of lemon which they didn't have. Odd as it's a restaurant. Anyways, main was the Antonio which is your traditional breakfast with a few other items added. Fried eggs, smoked bacon, sausage links, haggis, black pudding, sautéed mushrooms, roasted tomatoes, hash brown, halloumi and served with toast and butter. It was quite good. Toast was pretty massive for the two slices. Everything was quite tasty and flavorful. Th service was quite nice. Staff were all pretty friendly which is a plus. Dessert was amazing especially their raspberries blondie. Overall we enjoyed our meal.

I…read morethink The Canalside is a good local business, it has a casual ambience in the Sports Bar with televisions, Live Music and Karaoke at weekends, it is a good place for the football and a good laugh at weekends. The restaurant area is classy has a homey but formal vibe. All staff are cheery and helpful no matter if you're in the Sports Bar or the Restaurant. They also have a bar. There is a lovely fire in the middle which makes me think of home family, and winter. They have a great menu with a varied amount for all appetites. Also a children's menu and I think this place is great for families or get togethers. They have an outside decked patio area that is great on a sunny day with a coffee, dining with a dog, smoking area, etc. their flowers and hanging baskets are gorgeous! They also have a car park area beside the restaurant.

We were already a bit discouraged, but on our way back to the hotel we found this place right on the corner and it turned out to be a great decision. From the moment we arrived, the young ladies who welcomed us at the entrance and our server throughout the night were truly professional attentive, well-organized, and genuinely warm. We ordered several main courses, all of them beautifully prepared. The beef tartare, served with bread, was outstanding and can be perfectly paired with the truffled cream for an excellent combination(took the truffled from the Milanese . The sirloin steak was cooked to perfection, and the Truffled Chicken Milanese stood out as a remarkable dish, offering a delicious and well-balanced flavor profile.

We ordered cocktails (Margarita & Spicy Bloody Mary) A little on the expensive side, but large and worth every penny, cool, refreshing & enough to last the meal. The menu is varied & pleasing to both the eye and the wallet. We both had burgers, my wife choosing a double burger tower , with myself ordering a spinach & falafel burger, both with delicious hand cooked fries and salad. All meals are freshly made on site, but with perfect company & a wonderful view to soak up, the wait seemed momentary. Everything about the Boathouse is warm and inviting.
