The Fountain Bar & Restaurant — Restaurant in Scotland

Food was ok, pub grub, I enjoyed it, we went back at night for a drink thinking it would close at 10pm as per the covid rules. The owner wasn't there, so I don't know what he would think of his staff closing at 8-30, when it was still relatively busy. When I have 14/15 people in my beer garden, " I own a pub" I wouldn't be shutting shop and kicking them out, just saying. We were enjoying the drink and it ruined our experience there, as we were just getting chatting to the locals. One had just bought a round of fireball shots as it was surprisingly last orders, we had never heard of this shot. We said to them what is that, and the boy added us to his round, he bought my wife and I one each. I offered to buy them and everyone sitting there that wanted one straight back and asked for 12. The male server said no, so that was it, we had to go back to Moness resort and spend our money there. Trust me, I would not be happy if my staff had done that. Great wee bar tho, with great customers, so wouldn't stop me going back, the staff weren't rude, if anything they were nice, just a bit too prompt with...

Excellent location with friendly enthusiastic staff but let down by disappointing food.

When you're seated at a Formica topped table and handed a single laminated sheet for the dinner menu, you know the place won't be troubling the Michelin Star awards committee anytime soon.

Whilst my steak pie was good, the veg was completely flavourless and the dull plain boiled potatoes that came with it didn't exactly have me shaking the chef's hand.

My partner's chicken burger and salad got a, "Hmmm, it's Ok" but the side salad was the smallest we've every seen. It looked like the contents of the burger were accidentally placed externally to the bun.

So, overall 1-2 stars for food, 5 stars staff and location - have a generous 4 stars,...

Just not a very good experience unfortunately. The outside of the pub in the town square looks lovely and would be a great place for a drink in the sun. We went inside for food though and were hoping to watch the rugby which was on many of the pub's screens. Food was ok at best - no real thought or effort went in to it. Then mid rugby game (which was being watched by a good number of customers) a tribute act singer began a sound check then into her set. Nobody seemed to be there to watch her but lots were to watch the now impossible to watch rugby. Disapointing. Also, despite a range of 6 lagers on tap, there were no real ales....
