The Kiln Bar — Restaurant in Scotland

I been at KB with my family for a birthday meal. First strange thing I noticed when they brought a buttered fish for my child and fish was pale, oily and soggy (when breaded fish served for my second child looked great). When they brought my buttered fish I seen the same- A very pale, soggy, greesy thing on my plate :( Taste was not good eaither..butter was not crispy, but greesy and also had a taste of old flour, not sure what was wrong but I ate less than half. When waitress came to collect plate (she probably seen I ate no much of it) she asked "if all was ok?"..I honesty said that I didnt like my buttered fish and... waitress just replied "Thats ok", turned around and gone with my plate. She show NO interest in situation at all.. and I had no even a chance to explain why I did no ate my dinner. Next thing I did not like, it when my kid's favourite song starts to play, some gentelmen appeared from kitchen with a hoover in his hands and without asking anybody around he turned his hoover ON and instead of music we listened a sounds of hoover for a few minutes. Kids were so upset. They said "we didnt hear our favourite song" :( Now, after I came back home from KB I had a very upset stomack and it still sore, child who had buttered fish too complained about sore tummy too. So..not very good experience for 70 pounds we paid. Probably would not go back to...

I was staying on Trondra and came across for dinner on Monday.

The staff were delightful, the food excellent.

I had the chowder and the seafood pie, I intended to have the famed sticky toffee pudding, but after the chowder could tell it wasn't going to happen. The chowder was the best I have ever eaten, chunks of fish too big to fit in your mouth and perfectly cooked potatoes in a delicious creamy broth The pie was served with parsnips, carrots and broccoli. Large chunks of fish, a nice creamy sauce and piped potatoes browned perfectly. My only complaint was that I couldn't eat it all!!

If you are in the area please give it a try. The separating of the bar and dining area...

My team and I had a brilliant evening at The KB last night, I phoned last minute to book a table for 26 people after being let down by another restaurant and was very relieved when they said they were more than happy to take the reservation! The food was excellent - there was something for everyone and the service was the best we’ve had in Shetland so far - polite, quick and always checking that everyone was happy. We highly recommend The KB - the team are already talking about booking again in the future! Thank you so much for a super evening - we...
