Unlike most high street pubs the Penny farthing does not use its location to hike it`s prices up and keeps them not at the inexpensive but at a decent mid range. The penny farthing has a very good staff who will serve you with a smile as well as stopping for a chat even when the pub is very busy they always find the time to smile or chat, probably because unlike many of the pubs close by they actually employ enough staff! A real pub with a great atmosphere and it also has its own enclosed smoking area out the back with very nice and comfortable seating, tables and heating for those chilly Kirkcaldy nights.

This is an excellent Scottish pub, the home of the local football team support, Raith Rovers. The…read morepub is split into two, the usual bar and lounge. The bar is on the right as you approach the building and is one of the largest in the town with ample seating and sports shown on large screens. All the usual beverages are on offer at prices on a par with others in the area. Meals can be ordered at the bar and although they are not fine dining, good pub grub and good prices they are. Most meals are served in the lounge next door which is considerably smaller, but just as comfortable and very busy. Service cannot be faulted either. I would have awarded The Novar 5 stars but I feel the building itself let's it down. A typical late 60s early 70s flat roof construction with no surprises inside. But if you are willing to walk 5 mins from the end of the High Street then The Novar is well worth a visit.

The food is surprisingly good, at first you may look at the pub and compare it to the likes of a 'spoons, but the food is so much better. Costa coffee is also served in the bar, which is great as you don't then have to go to a coffee house to get a decent cup of coffee!! There are different seating arrangements so take your time to walk around the pub to find something suitable. There is free WiFi available, which is a little rare in Kirkcaldy. I didn't like my tuna melt, but I put that down to personal taste. We spoke to the staff about it and they handled it all very well. Service was also quick and the staff were friendly and approachable. The reason for the 4 star: We picked 3 tables before we found a clean one...not great on general cleanliness. Apart from that I will most likely return for some lunch.

The Ship was once a traditional old mans pub which was taken over a few years ago changed into a…read morebar/restaurant by the current owner, very succesfully. The entrance is very deceptive with only about 6 foot of frontage onto the main road making the place look tiny from the outside. However the door opens onto the bar area which is very traditional and well stocked with a real coal fire. This area can be quite busy since the bar is very popular with regulars. Food is served to the rear of the bar with a seperate dining room as well. I have eat in The Ship many many times and I have never been disppointed. The chef, Pat, cooks all the food from scratch so he knows all the ingredients, excellent for anyone in your party with a food intolerance. The prices are very reasonable with many "bar bowl" deals on the go as well. The range of drinks on offer is as large and comprehensive as you would find in any City bar but with small town prices. Music is played from the bar "sound system" with live entertainment on offer a few evenings a month at weekends. There is also Sunday quiz night, too hard for me. Because of the building layout you may not be as detached from patrons enjoying a drink when you are dining as you may like. Even when in the dining room "smokers" often walk past on their way to the external smoking area. I only felt the need to mention this so as to keep the whole review as objective as possible. The Ship attracts a mature clientelle since there isn't a pool table or juke box therefore unacceptable behaviour or language is rarely seen or heard. Families are very welcome. I have eat in many bars and restaurants around the country at all price brackets and this place is still one of my faves. Excellent food, beer and value for money.

I feel like I've kinda spoilt the surprise now, so if you're bringing someone, don't tell them and let them experience the confusion I felt. Anyway, the staff were very welcoming and we sat down to choose our food. My Sister & I went for the 2 course £12 option (at time of writing). We shared starters of haddock fishcake in a crispy batter & fried camembert with cranberry. For the main, Sis had haddock (again) in a cream & chive sauce and I enjoyed steak pie & chips. Niece and nephew both went for a starter as a main and dessert combo. Cullen skink with crusty bread followed by sticky toffee pudding. Everyone delighted with the food and all in less than £50 including drinks. Will no doubt be back sometime.
