So... I'm a tourist. My family ventured into this pub for a bite to eat after our cruise ship…read moredocked at Greenock. We finally figured out we had to order food at the bar, and of course I got fish and chips. The food took some time to come out, but honestly it was well worth it. THIS WAS THE BEST FISH AND CHIPS I HAVE EVER EATEN. Maybe it's because I'm an American tourist and I haven't had enough fish and chips to make a fair assessment. But. I tell you. The fish was fried to perfection: flaky, crispy, and not too greasy. I typically hate peas, but these ones were sweet and fresh. The fries were also good. I am so happy to have stumbled upon this place with my family. I ate fish and chips about 5 other times while I was in the British Isles and none of those hold a candle to this place. Highly recommend for the fish!

A wetherspoons pub, that's where!! This pub, like many of the other wetherspoons was in a grand building with high ceilings and loads of seating. The toilets are big and bright and always clean. We were able to order some drinks and find a great table with a decent view of Greenock. My guy and I only stayed for a few as we were on our way to a concert at the Beacon, but we had high hopes of making it back after the concert for some snacks after checking out the substantial food menu. Unfortunately, we didn't get back from the concert before 11pm (when they stop selling food), but we did stop back in for more drinks and crisps on our way back to the hotel. The perfect night cap to an amazing night.

The Indian restaurant at the Port and Harbour is a disappointment. It promises Scottish and…read moreOriental cuisine but it is no different to any other indian restaurant in that you can get a Gammon Steak and a few dishes with chips. Perhaps I am wrong. It does differ in two regards :- Firstly, the meals are not as well prepared, the meats seem to be cheaper cuts over cooked for safety (Thankfully). The curries are stodgy and too brightly coloured to be safe. The reds and yellows look as if they have been stolen from the paint shop. Secondly, the service is very poor. It was both slow and inaccurate. In our group one meal was entirely forgotten. (Sadly though it did resurface - more than once) This place has changed hands a number of times in the last years and one has to wonder if the site is jinxed.

With stylish and contemporary décor and spectacular views across Loch Lomond, the atmosphere in the…read moredining room is rather special. The maître d and our waiter were both really friendly and knowledgeable, the sommelier whilst perfectly professional was a tad cold. The food was all of the quality that you would expect from a single starred restaurant, with two or three of the dishes worth an extra star at least. The wine list was excellent and includes a reasonable selection of whiskies and fortified wines too. £75 gets you the 6 course tasting menu and a supplement of £15 an additional cheese course. On paper this seems overpriced versus what you'd pay in Manchester. However we counted 10 proper courses including the cheese, which is couple more than you'd get south of the border for your £55-75. So like the drink prices the menu is expensive, but not overpriced. Likewise the optional service charge is 10% and not 12.5%, so it all comes out in the wash. Plus... you're in a castle.

Whuppity Scourie formerly Jade's formerly Bridgewater Tavern has changed Management A LOT…read more However, the revamped Whuppity Scourie is a very welcome change. Recently refurbished, they have split the main bar away from the Bistro to allow children to enter and reduce the noise. Good plan! The menu has been overhauled and they don't have as many dishes on the menu as before which is a lot better for the kitchen ensuring quality over quantity. I ordered King Prawns with Calamari, my mom Haggis Fritters and my sister in law Black Pudding in Breadcrumbs with a Chilli Sauce. No complaints. They were tasty and well presented. We then ordered Balmoral Chicken, Fish & Chips and a Chicken Burger. Portions are extremely good for the price, food was cooked fresh to order and of a good quality. There was only 1 staff member within the bistro when I was in looking after 4 tables, which was okay but we did have to wait at times to be served; not her fault though. The dishes are a little expensive for a Bar Bistro in Erskine, but you'd expect to pay more if you dined in Glasgow for the quality and size of the portions. Our bill for 2 courses and numerous drinks for 3 people came to around £56. Not THAT bad when you think of it. All in all, the Whuppity Scourie is much better than it's predecessors and I hope it's hear to stay.
