Since we were having a full on dinner we decided to sit in the dining area We had the mozzarella sticks to start, as well as the tattie (potato) and leek soup, followed by vegetarian burger and beef stew. We also tried a selection of local whisky. And we topped it off with the chocolate cake, ice-cream, cream, and sticky toffee dessert. The sticky toffee + cream combo was delicious, so leave some room for dessert!

We picked this one arbitrarily and were very happy with our decision. I had the fish and chips which I was pleasantly surprised by the quality. My husband had the steak pie and had a similar reaction. I had a pint of cider which went well with the greasy fish and chips. I would not hesitate again to eat here if in the area.

My daughter had fresh mussels from the Shetland isle, and it was a generous portion. We couldn't have mussels from Southern coasts as there was a restriction on harvest. We had soup, cheeses, salad. Delicious food, and nice service in a bustling, happy, establishment.

Those who…read moreare familiar with the show "Still Game" will know what I mean when I say I felt like we'd stumbled right into the Clansman. The patrons were all on the other side of middle-age, seemed to all know each other and were exchanging playful banter among themselves and with the bartender. There was a cozy, crackling fire - real wood, not gas, mind you, and just a general air of comfortable companionship there. I almost felt like I was intruding while quietly drinking my pint, but the occasional friendly smile from a regular kept there from being any sense that we were unwanted. It seems that the only food available is crisps and nuts, so don't go in looking for a meal, but if you're out that way on a cold, rainy night, you'd do well to stop in for a drink before you get back on your way.

Almost everyone who came in the door was a friend of theirs, or soon was. They were so welcoming and interesting and kind. I had no idea what to expect when I wandered in there.

The waiters are a bit slow, and they do not pay attention when you call them, but in general I had a good time. I had the bacon and chicken chiabatta, and I would have been very happy with it, if my bacon was crispy on its fat and it was a bit warmer. The chips served with it however, were really nice - makes a difference when almost everywhere in UK the chips are half fried... prices were more than ok happy to go back. Oh! I forgot to mention that it was packed during lunch time, and that made it a bit noisy, but bearable. It has very clean toilets, and they smell nice. Did not also like the fact that when I entered the place there was a dog inside where the bar area is...

The wine is lovely and there are real ales on tap. Through to the restaurant area, it is nicely decorated, warm and spacious with another fire. The service is attentive and friendly and the menu changes regularly and has lovely hearty food all at reasonable prices. I can particular recommend the burger - although the wedges are spicy! All in all, a lovely bar and restaurant, worth the drive out of town for. There is plenty of parking and it is kid friendly. I hope you like it as much as I do!

According to my husband it was less gamey than what he's used to, likely due to the domestic farming of the deer and every other time he's had venison it's been wild. So if you're not into gamey meats, but curious to try venison, this could be a great option for you. We ordered a few cocktails and a glass of wine during dinner, but we've noticed a trend. It takes a long time to get drinks out here in the country and I'm not sure why. There were 3 waitstaff for the 7 tables and while the food came out like clockwork, drinks were slow to come by. We got our first set of drinks before dinner and were able to sip them during our meal. I was really excited about dessert and we ordered the cranacan and the sticky toffee pudding. My husband ordered an old fashioned and I ordered a glass of wine, but they weren't delivered until well after dessert was concluded. We even considered canceling the final drink order until our server informed us that the drinks were being made just then, and yet we still had to wait another 10 minutes before we got the drinks. In total we waited about 30 minutes for the 2nd round of drinks and by then we just wanted to leave. The restaurant itself is quaint and cozy with a nice loca feel. And once again, be sure to set a reservation in advance.
