Ordered haggis starter. It was supposed to be on a bed of clapshot (mashed turnip and carrot) but disappointingly was on mashed potato. I did point this out to the serving staff but there was no feedback. Main course was posh steak pie. There were very few vegetables on the plate. One piece of carrot, a small piece of potato, three green beans and turnip. Very poor. The meat itself was tender but tasteless. I have had this dish on numerous occasions but this is the first time I have been so disappointed. My husband had a steak which was overcooked, tough and tasteless. It will be a while before we return which is a shame as we usually enjoy this bistro.

We booked a table for 10 at Hopetoun and this was a fist dining experience here for most of us. The food was fantastic! Really great quality, taste and presentation. Cocktails were lots of fun, well presented and lots to chose from.The service was perfect. Staff were polite, charming and hospitable. As we had such a large table we had to pre order the food and this worked well, all served in great time, not rushed between courses. I would definitely recommend. I can't wait to go back and try more from the menu - it all looked so good!

The food was mostly awful. I had bruschetta to start and the bread was dry as a bone. My garlic bread came with a hair on it (not my hair!). The chicken kebab was OK at best I’ve had far better. My brother had Mac & Cheese which he said was good and the tomato soup my daughter had did look good too. My other daughter had fish & chips but the fish looked a bit greasy. All in all won’t be back the prices are a joke for the quality.Service from staff was good though they are all lovely they’re the best part of the place.Kid-friendliness: Very child friendly

A group of 8 we all enjoyed our meals. I would return in the summer time. The place was freezing we ate our meals with our coats on. One of our group said this place is really cold another said we are freezing. It was just ignored. Such a shame as staff and meal were very nice.

Visited here for works night out. Food was really good. Mac and cheese was hot and tasted homemade. Others in our group had Turkey Dinner and the Beef, and said theirs was also lovely. Staff were great. Only down side was when went to bar for drinks, only one girl was serving. There were 6 people standing waiting to be served, yet 3 members of staff, one of which looked like a manager, stood at the end of the bar seemingly doing nothing, while the poor girl that was actually serving was running about like mad. It took one of our group to ask if anyone else was serving, for them to do something. Apart from that, is a really great place to go for something to eat or even just a drink.

Myself and 2 friends were there on Thursday afternoon. I have been quite a few times and happy with the food but on Thursday the place was very very cold.2 of us had the Steak piewhich was a lump of meat and that when we knifes it apart was horrible dry and the gravy was really salty with the veg.and roast potatoes in amongst the thick gravy.Very mushy.Waiter came for our plates,which were still pretty full and we said what our grievances were.Nothing done about it.Very dissatisfied.Ĺo
Great restaurant. Shared the Sunday roast platter. Food was brilliant! Fresh hot and very tasty. Well with a visit. Highly

We come here quite alot and i will say the service isn’t the best, it’s very very slow and it takes around one hour for your food to arrive and normally it’s worth the wait but for me last Saturday it just wasn’t worth it. I had ordered the Chicken supreme i think it’s called. It’s chicken, roast potato’s haggis and veg. After waiting an hour i got the tiniest chicken leg known to man, 3 small potato’s. For £15.95 i expected a little bit more. The portion was ridiculous. I’ve had this previously and it was much more and value for money. I also want to mention the heat or lack of it. It was absolutely Baltic, that alone would put us off returning. I received an email and left feedback to which I’ve had no response. I also messaged them on Facebook and the same no response. It has so much potential but not enough staff and it was just a let down. The last 2 times I’ve been there, it was poor and a let down. It’s alright them offering a discount but I don’t want that i want decent food and good service. Not too much to ask for.

Food was fantastic, wish I had tried here long ago. However service was extremely slow. We were seated at 3.30 food didn't arrive until 4.30 but it was worth the wait. Our plates lay on the table for a further 30mins after finishing and only when I asked a member of staff if we could order dessert these were removed. After ordering desert we waited a further 30mins then decided to leave and cancel dessert. To be honest they didn't even seem to be that busy. Waiting staff were lovely and very apologetic and well mannered. I certainly will be back so I'm hoping this situation was just a one off.
