Food Quality

Cons:
"The haggis a bit dry."
"Unfortunately the food from the restaurant was average at best."
"The other mains were fine but not amazing."
"The wood pigeon on the other hand was served on a bed of lentils that actually would've been a welcome change of texture and flavor but failed in that as they had been soaked with something sweet (blackberry jam??)."
"Taken as fine dining, the food didn't have the precise seasoning or presentation required for excellence."
"Many dishes now sound over fussy with hardly any fish/seafood options."
"The food was okay not completely worth the money."
Value for Money

"Good portions and reasonably priced and a lovely venue."
"The portions are not very big but what you get I found to be well cooked and delicious."

Cons:
"Decent selection but prices are a let down."
"Very expensive for what you get."
"Paying upwards of 20£ for duck that was a soft, tender fatty lump was also pretty galling."
"A twist on classic Scottish food. It was definitely good, bit kinda over priced for what you get."
"£25 for 2 breakfasts and 2 small coffees, feel a bit ripped off."
"Rather expensive dish considering adding whisky or peppercorn sauce was an extra 2.50."
"The food overpriced if somewhat different, perhaps a bit pretentious."
