    We thoroughly enjoyed our meal, having been there before the standard was as good as previously. Service was first class as was the food. Had planned on 2 courses but ended up having 3 although the quality of the food meant I did not feel as if I had over eaten. When we booked it was mentioned that it was for a birthday and it was a nice touch from the restaurant to give a complementary dram. Will definitely be back.

    A very popular place to eat so booking recommended. In hot weather there is outside seating. Good range of beers and a fantastic range of whisky. Plenty parking. Good access. But best is the quality of the food and great service

    Fabulous. I had potted prawns- delicious butter and bread was pillowy, prawns were moist and there were plenty of them. Husband had haggis and black pudding starter- again cooked well and he really enjoyed it. I had French Onion soup as my main and it was the best I’ve eaten. He had fish and chips and they were great. Fish was cooked perfectly and the batter was perfect. Highly recommended.

    A favourite dining experience for us. Always great food and service at a resonable price. Definitely recommend to anyone but it's advisable to book as very popular.

    This place was a wonderful restaurant to take a break from our travels. It was a cold, rainy day and entering the restaurant it felt warm and cozy. The young man waiting on us was very helpful and patient making recommendations to my wife due to gluten intolerance. Everything we ordered was excellent, tasty and filling, after a long morning of driving. The deserts were very good as well. Everyone on the staff was friendly and courteous. We will definitely stop there on our next whisky tasting trip!

    A friendly eating experience in a very well presented old building with great character and of course very much in the context of the local malt whisky industry.
