Not much more I can add to the numerous positive reviews. Classic, no frills breakfast and brunch spot that serves up some quality food. Not the cheapest nor tastiest Scottish breakfast in town but it hit the spot. Well made espresso drinks, as well. Everything is fresh and made to order. A must-visit!
Absolutely phenomenal!! The food was perfect- the menu was varied and creative, filled with classic comfort food done well and with personal touches added to each dish. The elements that set the food apart from the crowd did not detract from what you expect in comfort food at all, it was unpretentious but high quality and clearly thought through carefully. You can’t go wrong with any menu item. it’s clearly made in an environment where the employees care about the food leaving the window hot and good. We were a large party, and from glimpses into the kitchen it was clear the chef knew the menu well and was able to have everything finish at the same time. The service was amazing- we felt personally cared for and one waiter took the time to recommend a specific destination for us as visitors. The employees were comfortable with each other and everything ran smoothly in the middle of the lunch rush. The pricing is reasonable which is surprising given the location and quality of ingredients.
From the outside is just like any other restaurant with any other menu, but dare to enter.
The smile on the attendent reassures you made a good decision.
The menu is a love letter to Scotland's rich culinary heritage, featuring hearty comfort dishes crafted with the finest locally sourced ingredients. I went for the traditional Scottish breakfest and boy, what a culinary journey. The Haggis? Beautiful...
My beu ordered the banana pancakes and he still misses it.
Let's add a pinch of excelent rock'n'roll playlist and voila, this is a place that will make us happy to come back!
Portions are huge so feel free to share.
Slàinte mhath!

Beautiful place, good food at good price. We ordered the Mac and Cheese and the Steak and Ale Stew. Both of them absolutely delicious.
The dessert was incredible, a very very tasty Pudding. The attention of the waitress was also very kind.
It’s a 10. 🔥

Food was really good! The mash was delicious! They had a big table for our group which was a big relief. Service was fast. Didn't have to wait for too long.
Had a lovely time. Great food, fun environment, friendly staff.
The vegan Sheppard's Pie is fantastic and the crumble is delicious with custard.
Big thumbs up the the house lager.
Definitely worth a visit.

Went to mums for a pre show meal and have to say I was impressed. Like the name of the restaurant suggests this was just very nice filling food. I had the chicken leak and bacon pie and I can't really fault it. The chips were home made too which is always welcome. The price is reasonable especially for the location. The table we were at was a bit cramped next to another one but apart from that all good. I would recommend this place if you are in a hurry or just extremely hungry.
