   We had a lovely meal of Annandale burgers. Tasted fantastic and really good value for money. Availed ourselves of the outstanding toilets, immaculate as ever, then bought my usual bottle of Peated Rascally from the shop. Once in the shop had an interesting discussion concerning peated malts and which is my favourite. The only issue is the number of people who came in the coffee shop to be turned away because they hadn’t booked. There were numerous tables empty with reserved on them which were still empty when we left. Perhaps if staff explained the tables were booked but if the person asking could vacate it before the person who reserved it arrived it would avoid a lot of dissatisfied customers leaving. At least 4 couples were turned away in a 30 minute period whilst we were eating who had made a special trip out to the distillery.

   The rating given is because we booked on line the day before and turned up at the booked time to find everything locked up. Perhaps this was because of the weather but I feel we should have received an email to tell us what was happening so we didn't waste time making a detour to our journey. On all previous visits the service has been excellent and with good food

   Dear Nigel, We are so sorry for the inconvenience caused by the recent power outage due to the storm. Our energy provider was working hard to restore power, but unfortunately, the intermittent outages made it impossible for us to reopen on Sunday as planned. We did our best to communicate with all guests using the Opentable system, but it appears that a couple of messages, including yours, did not get delivered. This was due to the ongoing issues with both power and internet access. We sincerely apologise for this. We also posted updates on our website and social media channels, but we recognise that this is not a substitute for direct communication. We value your understanding and hope you will consider dining with us again in the future.

   Amazing venue, after a super knowledgeable tour of the distillery we were further impressed by the quality and professionalism of the staff in the coffee shop. By far the best experience we have had!! It was our friends 70th birthday treat and he had the best time thanks to all the amazing staff who were on duty of the 19th January at 1-4pm, thank you so much and we will definitely return and pass on our recommendations to others. There is a positive ethos from the staff and the ambience was perfect!! Well done to everyone your product rocks!!!!

   We have been here before but this visit we had Afternoon Tea, several tiny items which together were very filling. All top quality in respect of ingredients, flavour and cooking. Obviously not cheap but service was excellent, and the setting all bespoke and hand crafted. it is clearly dog friendly, and I am not keen on dogs, but I knew this before I went and the dogs were unobtrusive.
