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!

This gives the restaurant a warm feel. The menu is varied - local beef and fish, vegetarian options and seafood specials. There is usally a pasta dish on the menu, and steaks with choice of sauces. My husband ALWAYS has the Mexican stroganoff (he's a creature of habit..) All main courses include potatoes/veg so that you don't end up paying extra for a full meal Yummy desserts and excellent coffee. They do a midweek special menu of three courses for £17-£18 which is very good value. We have been going to Chapters for about 3 years and have never had a bad meal. The restaurant is very busy on Friday and Saturday nights, so would suggest booking, but we have usually managed to get a table midweek at short notice (but not always!).

It is so pretty in the summer when it is adorned with flowers that you just can't help but want to stop off there as you're passing through :-) Inside it is rather more modern than you might expect and quite smart for a pub. There is a bar area, and a room off to the side with leather chairs and sofas and a TV. At the other end of the pub there is an extensive dining area and the pub does seem heavily geared towards dining. We had just popped in for a beer and there was Black Sheep and Old Speckled Hen on both of which were very pleasant. The staff were welcoming and friendly and we spent a relaxing and very enjoyable hour there.

This was just the experience we were hoping to find: busy and unpretentious (although the wifi password was painted in handsome script above a doorway). If we didn't have to get back on the trail we'd probably come back another day.

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.

The hotel only has two rooms, a small bar, and two separate dining areas, with a beer garden outside. On our four day stay in one of the rented nearby cottages we where literally two minutes walk to the bar from the house, with three of the days we ended up here on most days at lunch time till close. Food is served at lunch times and the evenings and also we ate here three days out of four, and the food was pretty good serving the likes of Fish & chips, macaroni cheese and burgers to name a few. The bar area is small, and choice was limited, but I think this was due to the location, and locals didn't seem to go out drinking. Overall we had a great time here, and would recommend The Inn at Kingsbarns to anyone that was passing through or staying nearby.
