The Cree Inn — Restaurant in Scotland

So, the first time we went here we decided not to come back. The waitress ignored us when we came in, after 10 minutes we got the menu and after 10 more minutes we could order our drinks. When my boyfriend said "we also know what we would like to eat" she replied "there are people who came in first, so they will order first". 30 minutes later we finally could tell what we wanted to eat, after 30 more minutes we had our food. Pasta, but a very small portion so we were not even full at the end of the meal.

But then, 2 days later we went back again. The waitress was more friendly, helped us immidiatly and that meal (wraps) were more than enough. So we went back a few more times.

Based on our first expirience I will give it 3 stars. If that had not happened and if the meal was better I maybe would have given it 4.

Oh , missed out that we did ask if we could get a bowl for the dog to get a drink and this...

We had a really excellent meal last night at the Cree Inn, to celebrate my son's 15th birthday. The staff were attentive and really friendly, the dining area was cosy (if a little cool) and comfortable, and the food was excellent. This is not 'pub grub', it was excellent quality, beautifully cooked and delicious. There were 6 of us eating, we all had starters and mains, and 3 had desserts. With drinks included the bill was around £170, which these days offers really fair value, and for the quality it was excellent. Compliments to the chef, and all...
