Just sat down for a traditional Sunday roast, and sadly, this was definitely not the place to go…read morefor one. The beef was uninspiring at best, and the whole experience left me feeling rather disappointed. What made it even more disappointing was the rather grand announcement on the menu: "Gilmour's Roast Sirloin of Beef served every Sunday Lunch from 12-4pm, while stocks last." Well, that certainly set my expectations high! The wording made it sound as though people were practically queuing around the block to get their hands on this legendary Sunday roast before it sold out. Having now sampled it, I suspect they'll have enough beef left over to see them through to next Sunday. What arrived was two rather sad slices of very dry beef. I was expecting a generous portion of beautifully roasted, succulent beef--tender, juicy, and practically falling apart at the mere sight of a fork. Instead, I was presented with something that appeared to have spent rather too long contemplating its existence in the oven. A bit of gravy might have helped, but I suspect even a full-scale rescue operation would have struggled to bring this beef back to life. Now, the sticky toffee pudding was an entirely different story! Absolutely delightful. Warm, moist, and delicious, with a generous helping of rich toffee sauce and a small dollop of ice cream. Proper British comfort food at its finest! If the Sunday roast was the disappointment of the afternoon, the sticky toffee pudding was the hero that swooped in to save the day. I would happily return for that alone. The service was lovely, with friendly and welcoming staff, and the restaurant itself is in a fantastic location with a wonderful atmosphere. It's a great spot to sit down and enjoy a meal. Unfortunately, when you advertise a Sunday roast as though it's the hottest ticket in town, you really ought to deliver something worth writing home about. In short: Come for the atmosphere, stay for the sticky toffee pudding, but perhaps give the Sunday roast a miss.

Not only did they provide me a great Sunday Roast, they gave me the best meal I had during my…read moreentire trip to the UK. The price is very reasonable, the service is friendly and quick, and the food is really, good. On Sundays, they fluctuate between serving beef or pork for the roast (which starts at noon, not when they open); I luckily came for the week they served beef. The roast itself was tender, the sides within the entree - veggies, roasted potatoes, skirlie and Yorkshire pudding - complemented the meat and each other seamlessly, and the meal overall was hearty and flavorfully rich, but not salty. I also ordered pigs-in-a-blanket and brussel sprouts for additional sides, and while overkill (meaning I didn't need them to make me full), werr very good appetizers; I had to make sure not to finish them, or else I would have been too full for the meal. For drinks, I got a Mezcal Negroni that was strong but delicious. The clean, lovely restaurant was sparse when I came in at noon, but was picking up by the time I left around 1:15p. I would love to go back when I'm in the area.

It was a bit cold and drizzly so we were glad to be inside. It is cozy. The menu consists of about 10 dishes I would say. Ordered the 8oz. steak with garlic butter, with mushroom/tomato and chips as sides. Also ordered green beans. Also added on Cullen skink. Kids had gnocchi. Being a thin steak the cook ranged from medium well to medium rare in parts. Not like steak back in the states. I would say beef flavor came through but not enough seasoning. The vegetables and chips were very good. The Cullen skink was more stewy than soupy also it was locally made, this recipe had dill pickle bits in it. I thought it was good. I love how they love bread and butter in this country. The gnocchi was okay. Again just different from rye U.S. Service friendly and welcoming.

Homemade tartar sauce the best I've ever had. Chips were like steak fries, so good! Crisp on outside, soft and steamy on the inside. I tried to finish them all but could not there were so many! - broccoli on the side - 4/5 solid offering to round out the meal - toffee sticky pudding with pecans and vanilla ice cream - 5*/5 this was outstanding! The best I've ever had and wish I hadn't polished off the entire fried fish so I had more room to have more of this!
