    Not only did the lamb get lost, so did we. We found ourselves going into Eaglesham and then winding…read morealong potholed farm roads for miles. Our satnav had sold us a dummy and we missed the turning that turned out to be right where we were, and not 300 yards away as we were told! In reality though this place is literally mere hundreds of yards from East Kilbride - as long as you don't miss the turning. It's an old drover's inn so they say, and it does have an air of history about it. The real shame is that there is only a cursory attempt at a beer garden, it was a nice day but all they have is a handful of picnic benches at the edge of the overly-large car park round the back. It's nice inside though, plenty of old fixtures and fittings, although we were put in a small dining-room that had the least character of all the rooms we saw. It was quiet, only two more tables were occupied inside, and service was friendly and efficient. We both ordered exactly the same things, haggis bon bons to start and venison for the main. The bon bons were lovely and light, so presumably not just haggis, if there were only a couple more said the greedy me, but they had a great flavour and the whisky mustard cream sauce was about as good a "british" sauce as I can remember having. It packed a ton of flavour. The venison came served on mash and a gravy, and with a side of buttered veg. Again everything combined beautifully. The mash was creamy, the sauce flavourful and the venison was cooked perfectly medium-rare, it was soft and delicious. The veg was al dente as most cheffie veg is these days, presumably to keep the goodness in. There was almost nothing not to like as far as I was concerned.

    Really tastey food and great staff and will make this one of our local places to eat....Thankyou…read moreLost Lamb our Date Night was made special!!!!!

    Don't be deceived by the name or the pretty font, the Waverly Tea Rooms is sadly not a teahouse…read more To be fair, the Waverley (a bar and restaurant) has a sedate and subdued atmosphere most of the time, but this is usually through circumstance rather than choice. The truth is that it is yet another slightly soulless member of the G1 franchise. The drinks are ridiculously expensive (especially the beer I believe) and the clientele (especially at the weekend) are proud members of the white shirted brigade - men with ludicrously gelled back hair, overwhelming aftershave and a liking for labels who think that standing at the bar holding a £20 note will get them served quicker. It is popular for a reason though. It is one of the few pubs in the south side that opens past 12 during the week. Plus, its conservatory and beer garden means that it is as good a place as any to enjoy a leisurely afternoon in the sun. However, I would stay away at the weekend as it becomes cramped and uncomfortable. There are better things to do of an evening than stand in a corner shouting over rubbish music, whilst your friend queues for half an hour for a £4 drink.

    Oh dear. Things were not looking up from the start. We wanted Sunday lunch but couldn't get into…read moreour first choice restaurant so we headed here. On entry we were informed that the card machine was broken so we would have to pay cash. No problem, technical problems happen. Then we ordered drinks. Nothing complex just cokes, diet cokes, lemonades. These took forever to arrive and when we enquired with the absent waitress (we had to go into the bar) she wasn't in the least bit apologetic as she barked that they were coming. We ordered food, at the same time as drinks, from the menu imaginatively clipped to pieces of old wine crate - nice touch except that A4 is larger than the board so the menus were tatty round the edge (again, not a deal breaker but symptomatic of worse problems to come!). The propaganda at the beginning described something about the proprietor's love of food (he obviously doesn't eat here very often). Like so many others I went for the 'Famous Sunday Roast' which was shocking. The roast pork loin was ok - not over cooked - but the 'seasonal veg' were non existent. I had peas and carrots which had painfully obviously been frozen (rubbery carrots - eugh). Carrots might be seasonal but peas - not in January. What about some Kale or cabbage? The potatoes weren't great, but by this time we were so exhausted by the waiting for everything that we couldn't be bothered to send it back. We just wanted to leave. As a final salute to terrible restaurants, as she neared the bottom of her green salad, my friend found a hair mixed in with the leaves. On drawing this to the waitress' attention, she wasn't greeted with an outpouring of apology but an indifferent grunt. No 'comped' salad for us then. We finally fished out the loose change (remember no card machine) to make the bill exactly (no a snowball's chance in hell of a tip) and left. For £7.95 I don't expect caviar served by my own personal butler but I don't expect the horrific experience that I endured.

    I'd read earlier today they were having a free craft beer tasting this coming Friday, so when I…read morewas in Shawlands this evening looking for somewhere to go for a drink I thought I'd pop along here to check it out. I just spotted the restaurant area at first on arrival and was pleased when we were offered the bar area through the back as another seating option as we'd already eaten dinner and didn't want to order food. We bought two craft beers - one by Williams Bros and one by Deeside Brewery, £3.95 each, from their craft beer fridge. I liked that this fridge was easily accessible for people to peruse and select a drink as often it can be hard in bars to get a good look at the selection behind the bar, and also it meant I could look at the labels to read the drink descriptions and ingredients. On the bar was a basket of crisps (Kettle Chips :)) and nuts priced at a £1 per bag. The Lite Bite food menu didn't have much on it that looked suitable for me (as a vegan); perhaps the veggie haggis would be ok if there was no butter in the neeps and tatties, and I spotted on the restaurant menu they also have sorbets by Porrellis, which are vegan-friendly. The toilets had a nice smell and good handdrier. :) There were two TVs, each with the volume off, showing different sports. It was really quiet tonight and as we left we were the only customers in there, possibly because it's not only a Monday but also a bank holiday. I don't mind quiet places though so that was quite nice. Would be nice if there was something on the menu to take my fancy to make me want to go back to eat, but service was good and they have a good selection of craft beers so happy to give 4 stars for somewhere to go back for drinks if I was on a night out on the southside.

    This is a combination review of 2 visits!…read more Visit 1: i was excited to try here as from reading online the gluten free menu looked amazing and i wasnt disappointed in person. Gluten free chicken tempura?? Get in my belly!! It was delicious as was the gf haddock and chips. My mum ordered the steak frites amd all was going well till she choked on a piece and things got a little bit scary. The staff were lovely and helpful and thankfully my mum was ok however she had barely touched her meal and was understandably put off finishing it so it was taken away. I was very disappointed then to see that we were charged full price for her meal. Granted it was not the restaurants fault she choked but still. Money was taken off after i queried it. Visit 2: After raving about the gf batter to my bf we visited the other day and I was genuinely gutted to see the tempura and fish and chips were no longer on the menu. I had a chicken burger with gf bun but it was not the same and to be honest I dont think I will be back now as the menu is very generic now with items that are naturally gf anyway. So disappointed!

    Glasgow, when will you learn? If a building like St Andrews in the Square existed anywhere else in…read moreEurope, it would feature on postcards, be highlighted on guided tours and sign-posted from across the city. Tourists would flock and photograph it from every angle, creating albums on Facebook entitled "Me at St Andrews in the Square" to a sea of thumbs ups from friends who like it. Instead, this lovingly-restored 18th century church is inconspicuously located in among modern east end flats and virtually impossible to stumble across unless you are specifically looking for it. And what a pity, because when it's lit at night, it provides one of the most spectacular photo opportunities in the city. Those who do know this building, know it's one of the greatest classical churches in Europe with a truly sumptuous interior. Now used as a performing arts centre, St Andrews in the Square can also be hired as a spectacular setting for ceilidhs, concerts, weddings and receptions. Just go. I promise you will not be disappointed.

    Despite living in Glasgow my entire life, I had no idea this place existed until a few weeks ago…read more This is incredible considering it is one of the most stunning buildings in the city. It seems to live in a sort of parallel universe, stuck in the middle of blocks of flats. I visited the cafe a few Sunday ago and, despite the sophisticated art deco style interior and impressive menu, the place was dead. I think this is because most people don't realise it's there.
