Blane Valley came highly recommended by the lovely lady who works in Bo Peeps so we went along after hearing the words home made and steak pie. We were seen quickly and although neither of us had been in before and we weren't sure how to order food the lady who served me our drinks explained that they take the menus across. A minute later a tall girl with long blonde hair took the menus over and we couldn't believe the prices-very reasonable-and my partner had his heart set on the steak pie. I had the breaded haddock and both were absolutely top notch. Proper home made steak pie served with mashed potatoes and mixed veg-you could have boiled tatties or chips. Hand on heart this was one of THE nicest meals we've had and the service was quick and efficient too. The lady who originally served me had short blonde hair and both girls worked their socks off. We then decided to have jam sponge pudding and custard and we both died and went to heaven! For two main courses two substantial puddings and two soft drinks the bill came in at under £30. 1000000% praise to the chef and two bar staff. The pub and toilets were sparkling and they'd a good varied menu. While I went up to pay one customer was enjoying the home made soup and it looked gorgeous. Everyone's plates looked extremely tasty and I'd food envy! One lady told me that the food was renowned for being just like your mother made and suggested the mince and tatties as its legendary!

Read moreWe were in Scotland for an event at the Ovo in Glasgow. We went out to tour the city and stumbled on this little gem. The place was packed and no free tables. A lady caught my eye and told me they were about to leave. We chatted to them and she asked if we were ordering food to which we replied yes. She told us the steak pie was delicious. I'm not a fan of pastry but I decided to take her advice. So yellow pea soup for starter.....out of this world 🍲. I'm going to try and replicate it at home. Steak pie 🥧 for main...again, out of this world. The steak melted in your mouth and unbelievably the pastry was perfect. My partner had the same and hoovered his plate in a heartbeat. When we return to Glasgow we will definitely be going back. So people if you're in Glasgow and are hungry give this place a try, you be disappointed I promise...
Read moreFood was nice however staff was a real issue. Felt very unwelcome from the moment we walked in. Then sat while they got every other tables order including the people who were in after us. Had to go ask for a menu which was met with attitude from the guy. Menus were practically threw down on the table. Again sat waiting to have our order taken and had to ask the man who had already had an attitude prior I'd we could place our order and was met with attitude once again "no I'm getting plates right now" while his hands were empty. He then didn't bother to even come back to take our order at any point and had to ask the woman. Then was nearly overcharged by the guy who tried to charge us twice for our drinks. Definitely won't be back and wouldn't recommend the place to anyone. Food is not worth the unwelcoming and...
