Zetland Pantry — Restaurant in Scotland

It's places like this that really grind my gears. Firstly I do have to point out that I, and the party of 5 I was with, really did enjoy the food. It's absolutely everything else about this place that I really did not care for. From the minute we entered we were made to feel like a genuine nuisance. We were intercepted at the door by someone demanding to know if we had "booked".......! "Have you booked....?!" I didn't realise that it was necessary to inform a cafe who serve sandwiches that a few people might pop in during opening hours, mid-week to have a bowl of soup and a coffee, seemingly the Gestapo at Zetland pantry deem it of the utmost importance. If you do however, it would appear that they may go to extreme lengths to appease you. Our party on the other hand had to be split between 2 tables (which could have quite easily been brought together to make 1) as we hadn't "booked." The party that had "booked" were about to be lavished by an entire single table, made up of no less than 3 tables merged! Blimey! If only we had "booked!" Upon being seated and split up, I was then requested to move, as I was upsetting the access to the main "booked" table! At this point, it's important to highlight that this table still had not arrived after we had been seated for over an hour. Before, during, and after our visit, nobody sat at that table. Disgusting. I think this is where I'm mostly annoyed, serve the customers you have in front of you at that moment in time, not a table that isn't even in your establishment yet. Staff not at all helpful with reasonable requests about the contents of the cake display and the coffee was awful. Parking is a nightmare and it's not really...

Been twice now for breakfast. First class food, first class service, first class value for money. My large breakfast took about 15-20 minutes to cook (which I think is entirely reasonable, it was pretty busy) so the girls gave me a flat white on the house, cause I had to ‘wait so long’. I never even noticed to be honest. Portions are massive, all the food is butcher quality and the coffee is great. Amazing value. £16 for a HUGE plate and a coffee. Nice relaxed atmosphere, perfect balance, hats off to all the staff for being attentive without being in your face. Brilliant local business, credit to Grangemouth. Keep up the good work guys....

Not the cheapest but the food is very good if with a nice desert option tho these do come with a lot of cream. There is seating for just approx 30 people and the atmosphere is quite nice. Due to it's location the parking is residential so you may need to walk a little. Pricing is reasonable for a special treat although not everyday prices. Selection on the menu is small but everything is freshly cooked and is popular in the area for takeaway. Wheelchair users may find this a bit tight for access...
