HS-1 Cafe Bar — Restaurant in Scotland

Stumbled upon this wonderful place whilst walking into town from my B&B. It looked busy from the door and I was grateful when they managed to squeeze me in.

I mostly cook from scratch at home and it’s rare to find restaurants where wholesome, fresh and tasty food is served. This was like going to a friend’s house for dinner. I absolutely loved the chicken & veg stir fry, which was full of perfectly cooked, colourful vegetables (pak Choi, peppers, onions, mushrooms, spring onions, herbs and ginger), lightly battered, quality chicken and egg noodles (thank you chef, whoever you are). Totally worth every penny. For dessert, I had the sticky toffee pudding and this was also a complete delight. The waiting staff were also incredibly welcoming and pleasant despite the endless stream of people trying to get a table. I hope to be back sooner rather than later so I can try some of the other dishes on the menu. Don’t miss this...

Great food in a lovely restaurant but service was poor.

Ate here on a Saturday night. There's no booking system, just turn up and see how long for a table. Told it would be a half hour wait so said we'd wait on the window seats and have a drink. There was quite a wait before anyone took a drinks order and another wait for them to be served. We noticed other tables having to ask for their drinks when their food was brought out. Once seated everything was great, food was absolutely delicious. We had the Korean chicken strips as a starter and the fish and chips and Jamaican chicken burger for mains. We continued to notice tables waiting a long time to be cleared and lots having to ask for the bill. One waitress was good at looking busy but not actually...

Most of the staff are unfriendly portions are very small they hardly give you any chips or rice which are cheap enough a lot of the food is locally sourced which is good more often than not your waiting a long time to get served cocktail's are over priced with a small cocktail menu its fine for a lunch with friends or family but don't expect to be blown away by the quality of food they might have good chefs but they dont seem to put in the effort the boatshed next door is much better with a friendly atmosphere as staff make more of an effort with you and food is better place is starting to look dated like most of cala hotels never wanting to dip into there pockets...
