    Steak Pie
    Marcus P.

    Food and service was excellent. I had Shepard's pie with broccoli and chips. The atmosphere was great and family friendly. If you're looking for a good place to eat in Tain (there aren't many options), this is a great choice.

    I'd heard mixed reviews about this place but thought I world try it out. It was my nephews 18th birthday so we headed here for a change. It was a Thursday night so the place was relatively quiet with only a few other tables in. The place as you may have guessed from the name is an old train station waiting room. The platform outside is still used by people waiting for the train. They have refurbished the place wonderfully. All the stone work is stripped back to its natural state. The place feels big and airy in a good way. They serve great cocktails but unfortunately I was driving. We ordered our dinner. The staff were lovely, helpful and friendly even offering my mum a wee tour of the place as she grew up in Tain and remembered it as the waiting room. Our food arrived and although it was more expensive than other local places the portion size and taste was worth it. I had the chicken pate to start and then the salmon which was huge. With that you also got a side of vegetables and potatoes. I would like to go back without the car and sample some cocktails.

    Husband said it was the best bangers and mash he'd ever had. Sweet carmelized onion and gravy. Wonderful setting. Staff was attentive.

    My son and I were on a 2 week trip in Scotland and without question this was the best food we had the whole time.

    This is a MUST VISIT if you're in Inverness. I was lucky enough to get to chat with Bruce…read moreMacGregor, one of the owners, and listen to him play. His passion, talent, and story telling is unmatched! The roast dinner was delicious and the cocktails were so fun! They take great care with the details around the pub, giving nods to history while pushing forward progress within the re-adoption of traditional Scottish music. Come for a drink or a meal, and stay for the vibes, history, and immense talent on stage.

    Re: Delicious Sticky Toffee Pudding…read more To the Greek couple we met in Inverness, with great apologies, we suffered confusion of which delicious desserts we had at various restaurants around the city, inadvertently directing you towards a place that did not serve sticky toffee pudding. We should have pointed you towards MacGregor's as having the most delicious sticky toffee pudding, now verified after having several others that did not perfectly balance sweet with salt as that of the sticky toffee pudding at MacGregor's. If the pub is full, please find your way to the end of the bar and the small door to the left that takes you to the cosy table service room where Jess and other wait staff, including little Nala, will take the best care of you. We also highly recommend the steak & ale pie and fish & chips, should you require something a bit more than the sticky toffee pudding. Again, apologies, and we are certain you will have a fantastic experience at MacGregor's!
