This place is a classic. Owned by the 2 sons of the original owner, some of the recipes are as old as its 54-year history. It looks like a greasy spoon when you walk in and the back room could be a church basement, but the staff and friendly and helpful (I had never seen fried haggis) and the food is great. It was a recommendation from the young lady who did our distillery tour (do it!). It was not amiss.
I had haggis, which is fried in light fish batter...lots of things are, including pork sausages (!) Bit of a shock to health-conscious north Americans. The batter was good and the haggis inside was outstanding. Get it with gravy, peel off the breading if you don't want the extra gut, and enjoy.
My son had chicken parm, a giant pizza-like section of chicken with a slice of ham and a winter duvet of cheese. OMAD folks will be all done for the day. Cheese blend was perfect, chicken tender and moist. Chips were fluffy, done right.
Some food is good for you, some is just good. This is the latter, served in a warm small-town atmosphere that shouldn't be missed. read more
