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 :-)

It was absolutely deserted, as you could expect on a Tuesday evening, but the bartender was in excellent spirits anyway and was chatting away whilst making our cocktails. As my friend Amy and I walked to the bar we noticed that the sign outside said £8 cocktail pitchers. And in we went. Once inside we noticed on the cocktail menu a single cocktail was £4, so we went up and asked for a cocktail each, and he said "You do realise a pitcher would cost the same and would get you probably 2 each?". Well you didn't have to tell us twice! I like the fact he actually whittled his bar out of some cash, because it meant he was being customer orientated which I've never experienced from staff in there. Amazing night had, and I might actually return now!

I'm not a huge fan of Hamilton's nightlife but went along for a friend's birthday night out,…read morestarting off at The Stonehouse bar. Modern and stylish, the bar mixes tradition with trendy chic which makes for an unusual atmosphere. We managed to get a table but there aren't many to come by, which makes it impossible to go in large groups if you want a seat. We ended up sitting next to complete morons for a good hour or so, and were unable to move because there were no more seats! That made for an interesting conversation at least. This bar is unique in that it does cocktails and shooters, much like the more modern bars and pubs in Glasgow do. My friend and i opted for the P.S I Love You cocktail, which sounded delicious; amaretto, Tia maria, cream, Kahlua and dark rum. Truth be told we chose this because it had the highest alcohol content, but it did sound nice! Unfortunately what we got was a tall glass full to the brim with a whole tub of Elmlea single cream and a few shots of liqueur. It was so thick and sweet, just like drinking cream from the carton, so after battling half way down the glass (yes i know, I'm a trooper), i left it at that. The cocktails were around 4 quid which was pretty good, although I'll be giving that a wide berth in future as it made me physically sick and i had to leave early on in the night, not a great impression! As the night went on the bar got increasingly busier until the floor was literally jam packed with boozers. It all felt a little sardine like and claustrophobic so we left to go somewhere else. Not a bad place, just unfortunate about the sickly cocktail. I would try it on a quieter night for the full experience.

Now that I know it's here I'll definitely visit again if I find myself in the area. I should probably say that we were here for dinner and drinks. We didn't stay in the rooms but, if my experience is anything to go by, I suspect that they're lovely. My partner and I arrived a little early so got some drinks at the bar and then spotted that they have seating outside on a small balcony area. Since it was sunny we decided to sit outside while we waited for everyone else. Its a beautiful spot. If you're local to Uddingston and you're after a nice beer garden to relax in on those rare summer days - this is your place. Soon the others arrived and we moved to a private room that we'd booked for our party of about 30 people. Drinks orders were placed but they already had wine and prosecco on the tables for us. The set menu had apparently changed a little from when the booking had been made, but everything sounded delicious so that wasn't a problem. They ran a separate menu for the younger children too. I chose the tomato and mascarpone linguine, the steak (served pink with chips and peppercorn sauce) and the berry pannacotta. I was very happy with my choices although the soup of the day and the game pie also looked brilliant. Everything I tried was delicious and I was pleased that my steak was as pink as I was promised it would be.

So all eyes were on us so we promptly left. Mind you I cannae complain about the age thing since I am considerably over the drinking age. Mon my youthful looks! Although it was a bit of a put off, I really did want to try the restaurant since it was upgraded a few years ago. Well, for a wee post birthday lunch, I went with a couple of my closest friends and their kiddies. You can never have enough birthday celebrations. I was really impressed with the layout and decor. I was like, I don't feel like I'm in Blantyre anymore. Fortunately there was no wicked witches. The menu was impressive, remembering the fact we're in Blantyre here. We all went for the 3 course deal for £10.95. I had an odd combo of black pudding, apple with sweet chilli sauce in a stack for starters. Very interesting but hey it worked for me. My main was honey and mustard chicken skewers on a bed of rice and lastly an After Eight Sundae. Nomolicious I say! I couldn't finish my sweet though, this burd was stuffed. I would definitely recommend and would be up for going again. Anyone? I did notice they have a lot of televisions which I thought was a bit pointless as all they have on them is advertising for up and coming events and deals. I thought it was a bit of waste but hey maybe it's part of the modern look. Anyhoo, just remember to bring your ID for the lounge if you're having a wee cheeky schwally.

It is great bar for food, cocktails and has live nights, karaoke and other entertainment throughout the week. They have freshened up the look of the bar and it looks and sounds more like a bar from the West End of Glasgow rather than in Hamilton West. It also has a side room with booths which is great for getting something to eat. I've also seen it reserved for private functions. I haven't tried the new menu yet but it looks good. My friend and I just went out for cocktails. I was unfortunately driving but the bar staff were very accommodating and made me virgin French Martinis and they were absolutely delicious. If you're ever out that way pop in and you'll see what a difference it is with the refurb and check out the live music as there is plenty of local talent.
