Off the Square — Restaurant in Scotland

We stopped for lunch as my husband has been a few years ago on a trip on a previous motor bike trip. We sat outside, the garden area was unkempt and dirty but we put in our order for drinks and sandwiches, was taken quite quickly. About 10 minutes later we got our tea and water. The glasses were obviously unclean, so we decided not to use those. The bottled fizzy water was warm. The waiter said that our food would be out as soon as possible. Then we waited about 25 minutes for our sandwiches. As did a couple beside us, who ordered at the same time. Their food came out and then ours appeared. I had a coronation chicken sandwich and my husband had a panini. With them each came crisps and a salad. The crisps were soft and chewy, and cheap. The salads had a strange lumpy glaze over them. My sandwich was on slightly stale white bread and the chicken was chewy. After eating some of the sandwich and drinking some lukewarm weak tea I couldn’t cope and had to leave.

Today was the first time I'd visited but my parents come here when in the area. The staff were all so lovely. The food was delicious. I had a chicken goujon wrap and mum had a breakfast roll. Both items were so fresh and cooked to perfection.

We had the two tub chairs near the back of the restaurant and for me personally on crutches and struggling with a hip these chairs were so comfortable for me. I can't wait to come back again when I'm next in the area next month.

Thank you for a lovely dining experience.
