Hunter House Coffee Shop — Restaurant in Scotland

Looks like a lovely place to stop for a wee catch up chat/short break. However, the cooking smell is lingering very heavily in the air as soon as you enter! 🤭 I was only donating some warm winter items for their fabulous free offer for families to keep warm thru the winter but when l came back out my clothing was smelling very strongly of a cafeteria. 😏🙄😕 Sadly then my car was too! 😢 I was chatting to a colleague about this, who had actually picked up some warm winter items from the shop for a family that she is helping out, but she had to wash all of the items first before she could hand them over, because the clothes were all smelling so strongly of food, as was her car. Please do not be offended by this review, as it is simply mentioned in the hope that something could possibly be done to avoid the lingering aroma of cooked food being on the clothing. Some of the items which l donated were 'dry clean only' so that is disappointing for whoever picks them, as they were all smelling clean and fresh when l donated them.

They had the place packed, literally at capacity with occupied seats back to back, but they chose to scream at me for sitting in a chair at our table (the only empty chair in the whole place), the joys of not being one of the scheme-mums. No service, and bigot-crow staff; I have not...

We had a lovely lunch. Baked potato, coronation chicken and salad and home made soup and crusty roll. All hot, tasty and well presented. The staff were polite and attentive and the bill was reasonable. It was a warm sunny day and the blinds were closed making the venue quite dark inside. However, in spite of that we enjoyed our food and if we are in the area again,...
