    We had a table booked for downstairs but we decided we wanted to go upstairs when we arrived, the staff accommodated us and made that happen, the food was great I had the signature haggis burger which was excellent and the sticky toffee pudding which was a good portion, great selection of beers available also

    The food is always brilliant here, and the portions are massive. The chicken is so tasty and well-cooked; the flavours are intense, with great spice levels. It's lively- not the sort of place you'd go for a quiet meal, but not too loud to have a conversation. Will be back.
