Nice enough environment to dine. My father enjoyed his Smoked Haddock Chowder. I had to prompt for the potatoes which came with main, no biggie, easily done. We were asked how our meal was after finishing. I didnt have the heart to respond. Unfortunately the 'Olive oil' for the potatoes was not 'olive oil'. I did enjoy the salmon however. The stake was well cooked but very fatty and small in size. The whisky sauce that came with it didn't taste like any whisky sauce I've ever had before and looked more similar to a gravy. Unfortunately, even the fries disappointed as they had a strong oily taste. The Aperol Spritz wasn't an Aperol Spritz. I believe it was just Aperol and soda water. We had Been asked if we wanted to order anything else which my wife replied 'no thanks'. However, whilst we were finishing our drinks we decided that we would like to order desserts.

He then had profiteroles, proper old school, which were great. A cider and beer helped everything along. The staff were brilliant and couldn't do enough for us, so that made the...
Read moreI've just been in for what I thought was meant to be a 2 breakfasts and 2 breakfast rolls. I was told over the phone it was a buffet breakfast and to get what I wanted when I went over to collect, and they would make the breakfast roll fresh, which was fine. When I went over for it we were told we were to early for the rolls and to help our self to the breakfast, only food they had out was link sausage and old eggs, scraps of bacon and a heap of empty trays. I sat for 10 minutes and waited for more food to come out, but it never did. I paid full price for not even half a breakfast. I got 2 sausage and 2 tattie scone squash of beans, and even then, it was scrapping the barrel of breakfast food. Normally, the breakfast it quite good, but today. Food was shocking. Definitely...
