Luckily that is what we came in for! We both opted for a Steak & Ale pie and it lived up to expectations. The only bad thing was waiting a bit for some steam to escape so it could cool down enough to eat! The flaky pastry was amazing and we both ate every bit of our pies. It was everything you would want- tender steak, rich gravy, well cooked potatoes and peas. Service was good as well, so no complaints for our visit on any front. Atmosphere was lively and tables are close enough to strike up a conversation with your neighbor. Back in the states now and only wishing we could stop by for another pie.

We ended up being seated outside, which was fine, nothing great about the atmosphere out there besides being in St. Andrews. For food, we had the Steak & Ale Cri Pie, which was good, but not great. I believe this is one of the things they are known for. Again good, but I've had better elsewhere. Also had the Cullen Skink, which was excellent. That is my favorite Scottish dish and this one didn't disappoint. My daughter had nachos, which apparently is a big thing with the kids in Scotland, and she liked those.

We both started with a side salad, which had a light dressing and came with a variety of salads, herbs, and pickled vegetables. So good, especially because we've been eating all sorts of heavy meals. I then had the shepherds pie, which was so delicious. The lamb was super, the cheesy mash was delightful, and the roasted root veg were to die for. My friend got the meatballs and liked them a lot.

After numerous recommendations, I finally tried the famous Whey Pat nachos. They are quite good, don't get me wrong, but I wouldn't necessarily called them legendary.

It was Father's Day and my dad's more of a steak-on-the-bbq kinda guy than fine dining, so I did some research and found this place. Less than a 10-minute drive from the touristy bustle of St Andrews, it seemed ideal for our lunch stop. The wait for a table for 4 at the Steak House was 45 minutes, which we agreed to and happily wandered around the farm shop to kill time. After we were seated, however, the REAL waiting game began. The menu is simple, with basically 4 different cuts of steak available and a burger option, so it didn't take us long to decide we'd all go for rib eye steaks. It took the server 10 minutes to come back and take our orders, and another 15 minutes after that for our drinks to arrive. That wasn't the worst part... our meals (nothing fancy - 4 grilled steaks on wooden boards with chips) took another HOUR after that!! Nobody checked on us while we were waiting to apologise for the delay, or ask if we wanted to order more drinks. We sat there with empty glasses, having nursed our beers as long as humanly possible. In summary, we arrived at 12:45pm, seated by 1:30pm and weren't served our meals until 3pm. It was absolutely ridiculous and unfortunately I just didn't feel that the management/staff did enough to make up for it to warrant a return trip for me.
