We decided to stop at the Jam Jar in Paisley and it ended up being one of the best restaurants that I, personally, have ever been to. The food was excellent and the service was top notch. We had a young woman and gentleman wait on us and they did an excellent job. They were polite and professional. Another gentleman (possibly the owner) came up and checked on us as well and he was also an incredibly friendly person who added to the warm and welcoming ambiance. I would highly recommend this restaurant to anyone who is lucky enough to be in such a wonderful part of the world.

The drinks can be rather expensive, however they do have the option of cocktails which is not available in all pubs. The toilets are located about a mile away from the actual bar.

Great Italian place I was in with friends a week ago tonight. Was with friends that I've known…read moresince I was five. I made a grand entrance by falling on the floor either by slipping on something or a shoe malfunction but the owners & owners daughter were so quick to come over to me as I made a spectacle of myself, & were so kind, they picked me up & dusted me off and promptly gave me ice for my swollen hands. They couldn't do much for my bruised ego however but once we all decided on the 2 course between 2 and a bottle of wine, that helped me laugh of the embarrassment! Great specials by the way with lots to choose from. After living in the US and not getting the "British/Italian" version of lasagna at my disposal or prawn cocktail Marie Rose I knew exactly what I was having. Both were delicious! All six of us had incredible meals. The owners were witty & chatted with us. One graciously tried to take a group photo & failed, we asked the other owner who quickly said no no we are awful with cameras & phones I will get my daughter. We all laughed afterwards. The staff was great, we had a great night there. They put up with a bunch of 50 year olds hooting & hollering telling old childhood stories, although I suspect they enjoyed the banter. Turns out one of our friends shops in one of the owners home towns for work - small world. Definitely check out this place! Great ambiance, great food. Oh & the sticky toffee pudding is to die for!

The interior is up to date, but still has some older touches in it. There are even a few odd bits around if you are paying attention.... no need to ruin the surprise, go see for yourself. Gin71 is named for their 71 gins that they keep behind the bars. The menu is easy to read, well thought out, and not at all overwhelming. For those not interested in straight gin, there are many cocktail options that are very unique and well balanced. The only food to be had is the bottomless bowl of popcorn but it's a nice snack for enjoy with your drink and clear palates between sips. Overall, I'd highly recommend checking this place out if you are a gin aficionado or just getting into this wonderfully diverse and complex spirit.

Terrific new neighbourhood pub tucked away in an historic stone walled candlelit basement. The…read morenewly opened Smoking Goat bar has been totally remodelled and the result is impressive. If you remember the much missed Fouters Bistro you won't recognise the place now! The Smoking Goat is primarily a traditional pub with cosy nooks and crannies, real ales on tap and in bottles, and a great wee bar menu. The lunchtime options feature rare breed beef burger, venison sausage sandwich, pulled pork slider, smoked haddock fishcake, black pudding scotch egg with whisky mustard and more - all pretty imaginative stuff for this part of the world! Vegetarians are valued customers and it was a rare treat to find myself swithering over the menu. I narrowed things down to the red pepper falafel or the jerk spiced portobello mushroom burger with pineapple salsa. I went with the latter and it didn't disappoint, though I could have done with a few more of their lovely crisp fries on the side. Yay for free wifi without a password. I found it impossible to get a data signal down there so it came in handy. Customer-wise this is a good spot for socialising as well as dining. There are events going on throughout the week including pub quizzes and they have a pull down screen which I think they are showing the 6 nations rugby on, though this is not a 'sports bar' and there are no TVs. This is just a personal opinion, but I'd love to see the music turned down a wee notch to make conversation easier, and the lighting turned up a wee notch so the menu can be more easily read. Despite all the hard stone surfaces the acoustics were excellent. I can see this being a good venue for the occasional intimate music gig. Recommended!

Stocks a good range of newer beers in cans & bottles as well as having a couple of ales on handpull. Probably does cocktails to an extent. Quite a few nooks & crannies to sit in, giving it a nice amount of privacy if that's what you're looking for. I can see how the low lighting would be an issue when reading the menu but, in terms of just being in for a drink it was okay.

I've been a fan of the co-owned next door sandwich shop Mibbies Aye since it opened and hoped the restaurant would be just as good! Inside has been renovated to a really high standard, sleek flooring, exposed brickwork and a nice well lit bar. A cocktail/whisky bar is opening upstairs soon and there's a lovely windy staircase leading to it. Menu isn't extensive but should have something to suit everyone, and is very adaptable as I heard a customer mention they were very fussy and staff were happy to miss out certain ingredients. For starters we both got the Chilli chicken and herb croquette on dresses leaves and lemon sour creme. It was a generous portion, more like fish cake size and served beautifully. They tasted great, tender chicken in mashed potato - although I didn't get the kick of chilli. For main I went for the Slow cooked beef cheek on mash with balsamic roasted beetroot, honey carrots and red wine jus. Never before have I had such tender, gelatinous beef. Soooo tasty! The beetroot added a lovely sweetness and the sauce was delicious. Id suggest heated plates though as the sauce got cold quick but only a slight niggle. Other half had Chargrilled seabass with smoked chilli potatoes, lemon Mayo and dressed leaves. The fish was beautifully cooked and had a lovely charred flavour on the skin. We both went for the Orange infused chocolate ganache with Raspberry foam and honey drizzle. Literally so so rich but really flavoursome. We both didn't finish - but we wanted to!!! Service was quick and seamless, food came quickly although the place was pretty dead so I would've expected it to be. Waiter forgot id ordered a tea - was only a few minutes but he swiftly removed it from my bill! Only negatives are that its pretty pricy for a joint in Hamilton. The food is beautiful but I think maybe slightly overpriced, more of a city centre type price scale. However I will be back.... Definitely when I'm not pregnant though as I seen some of the cocktails being made and I've earmarked them for a non-oreggers dinner :-)
