Restaurants in Dundee

The Braes

Went for boozy brunch and had a great time! Super good value, cocktails are yum. Our server Stevie was attentive and friendly, so were all the other staff. Will go again!

Azaad Takeaway Invergowrie

Gluten free meal for one, but feeds two no problem. We had Punjabi korma, it was delicious, popadoms with onion chutney and a couple of sauces, absolutely brilliant.?xxDietary restrictions: Gluten free

Nether Inn

Abbi, Iona, Gordan, Taiya and Ryan all provided an amazing service. Extremely warm reception and fantastic conversation over the bar.Drinks nice and cold, glasses clean, bar tidy.Great little pub full of great staff.

Tahini

High quality, tasty, and always reliable - Tahini is a stalwart in this city where options for dining out are worryingly slim. Luckily, you can always count on a visit to Tahini to get great service, great food and you'll leave feeling stuffed to the gills!

VEGANA CAFE

Very friendly staff, quick service and fantastic food! It can be hard to find vegetarian/vegan friendly places to eat but Vegana is easily going to become one of our favourites. The meals had so much flavour, it all went together so

The Flame Tree Cafe

Friendly atmosphere, good foodHomemade soups and good selection of sandwiches. Very tasty.Dietary restrictions: Notified staff on arrival and wasn't a problem.Wheelchair accessibility: Good access

Empire State Coffee Artisan Roasters

Great coffee, sandwiches. Friendly service, very Highly recommended..Vegetarian options: Great vegan and vegetarian options, very well priced, and more importantly, delicious ?

German Doner Kebab

Everytime we come here the food is always amazing! Cooked to perfection. The veggie burgers are fabulous. We will always come here for the kebabs tooVegetarian options: Veggie burger is amazing. Very tasty and always enjoy

Loco Rita's Dundee

Fantastic vegan food, top notch! 5 stars. Every time we go, they always produce a fantastic meal ?Vegetarian options: Menu is all vegan. Yes, every single thing ?

The Horeb Food Company

Enjoyed lunch with a friend. Food was amazing. Had the sea food curry and it paired well with both rice and the flat bread. It was so good had to take the curry sauce home.Looking forward to trying more dishes from their menu

Mexican Grill Dundee

I have visited this restourant couple of times during my stay in Dundee and I want to say that this place is the top! The food is amazing, rich of a good taste in every bite and the atmosohere was a real mexican experience. The people who serve are just amazing guys with a big smiles, very kind and helpful. The Best choice for Mexican food in all of Scotland!Greetings from Bulgaria!

Goa

The quality of the food was superb. Full of flavour. The restaurant surroundings are very comfortable creating a welcoming atmosphere with friendly staff. Although it says that it's an Indian restaurant, I suspect that it's either Pakistani or Bangladeshi as unfortunately the meat was all halal which we don't eat so we had prawn and vegetarian dishes. They were excellent though.

Bridgeview Station Restaurant

The sandwiches are ENORMOUS!!! This is their mainstay. Yet to try the rest of the menu but looking forward to it. The prices at firs glance are expensive, £8 for a sandwich, but what a sandwich!!! Get a side of parmesan fries for £3.50 and you'll not need feeding for the rest of the day.The staff are some of the friendliest I have ever encountered and are so attentive if you have a question. I'd happily give Bridgeview 10 stars if I could.Parking: Limited spaces, but another car park just through a gated entrance, which "may close if there's a flood" etc.

Pizza Revolution

It was my first time at Pizza Revolution and the food was amazing! Considering they were catering for a large party and all the pizzas were made fresh I'm impressed with how quick food was put out. All in all fantastic service and amazing food. Will definitely go back

Meze Grill

Recently went to Meze Grill for my mum’s birthday and it was so good! Got the mixed grill for one and we both shared it as it was a lot of food. So big portion sizes, definitely worth the money. The chef also gave us some complementary cold mezes which was so kind of him. Can’t wait to go back sometime.Vegetarian options: I’m sure there will be a fair amount. Can’t recall the menu specifically for vegetarians.

Captain's Cabin

The staff are polite, friendly and very welcoming! It has a great atmosphere. I’d highly recommend Captains Cabin for anybody who is visiting Dundee as I couldn’t fault it at all! Keep up the amazing work!

Don Michele Italian Restaurant

Booked last minute on a busy Friday night for me and my girlfriend. Had an amazing night, staff were great, service was fantastic and food was incredible. We'll definitely be going

Jahangir Tandoori

We visited Jahangir’s Dundee for the first time last week. Hands down the best Indian I think I’ve ever had. The portion sizes were perfect, my house Thalia was phenomenal! And the service was really good! My only comment on service would be there was either too much or too little, either multiple people trying to take a food or drink order and no check back. Otherwise I cannot fault this place at all!!!

Indos Restaurant

Cracking food. All delicious. As a party of 6, we ordered 2 popadoms, half a rice and a naan each. Way too much food. But nonetheless delicious. Just felt awful at the amount of food we didn’t eat despite our best efforts.

Bombay Joe's Restaurant

Describe to me the best meal I’ve ever eaten in my life, and Bombay Joe’s is in the top 10 list.The incredible service and portion size is ??? I’ll come for a sit in and a take away!!! My choice for when meeting friends and they ask where to go. It’s a cozy place for sure.

Camperdown Elm

Ate here for the first time yesterday. Food was well presented and tasted good. Service was also good. Was a little bit more expensive than we would usually pay but I guess you get what you pay for, as they say…

The Selkie

Great food and service. Only downside was no vegan dessert, sure you can try harder guys. A fruit salad would have sufficed as my friend had plenty with her dessert ☺️

Más

No photos of the eaten plate this time. I was gifted a mas voucher for my birthday in August 2023 and decided to keep it for January 2024 to use on Mas @ home as we were expecting a baby. A meal that you heat and eat is a very good thing in those first few weeks!Well, first was the voucher: really glad we didn't wait any longer as it turned out the cold hard cash with no end date was only valid for 6 months. A really short time and given it wasn't for a fixed meal but a fixed value towards the bill, if prices changed during a longer valid duration this would not be a problem so I think this could change to at least 12 months.Onwards to the food; I bought the fiesta box which had 4 tacos and 2 quesadillas, as well as a nacho sharing platter.Really, on the nachos just make half the amount and save the rest for day 2, it was so much we put half of it in the bin because we just couldn't eat no more.The tacos were delicious, great flavour and really enjoyedThe quesadillas on the other hand felt more like a tortilla cheese toastie where it was the salsas and pickled red onion that did all the flavour. Maybe that's the intention with the quesadillas here, especially as they need to be suitable to finishing cooking at home when ready to eat, so a tricky one. Overall they were still very enjoyable, but I would have rather than another batch of tacos!The staff whilst I collected were lovely and the restaurant seemed like a great place to dine that I would like to do in house someday.

Raj Mahal

We had a wonderful set meal. Food was extremely tasty and very fresh. Price was brilliant, staff was excellent. We even met the owner who was extremely welcoming. Thanks for a brilliant authentic Indian experience. Highly recommended.

Kingsway Farm - Dining & Carvery

simmi was our waitress and was lovely, we both had a carvery and it was delicious as always, night atmosphere but unfortunately due to how busy it was we had to sit near the family zone so some loud kids - but this cant be

Bruach Bar

Jamie and & Anej looked after us the whole night. Cocktails were fantastic. The reccomendations from Anej on tequila paid off. Fantastic Codigo Anejo tequila thoroughly reccomend. We will be back.

The Bush Bar

In my opinion it is now one of the best pubs in the city they have worked wonders on the major refurbishment and now its clean and smart the staff are always friendly ant attentive most times I am In the city i go there keep up the great job

Beans & Berries

Didn't know what to expect when I walked in with 3 hungry children, but the owner was very welcoming. We ordered simple food: bacon rolls, garlic bread, samosas and coffee. The food was all better than it needed to be and was carefully made. The bacon rolls were generous and the garlic bread was very tasty. My children loved the food and the espresso was well pulled with a thick crema. Through out the meal the owner was very kind and attentive. The food was an excellent value and we look forward to returning and trying more specialties on the menu.Vegetarian options: Very large vegetarian menu.Kid-friendliness: Owner was very kind and patient with 3 young children.

Babu's

One of the Best takeaways in Dundee The food is Excellent, Amazing service friendly staff highly recommend babu's.Recommended dishes:Monchy Box, Grill Box, Babus Special Peri Peri Meat box and Chilli Garlic Meat Box.

Taza Restaurant

Visited today {4 of us} everything we had was delicious and perfectly cooked, I particularly enjoyed the fish pakora, chicken pakora and garlic chilli chicken.Service was excellent.Place was spotless.I highly recommend definitely

Shell

I've used this station quite a few times for LPG. The young man that served me today was very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Thanks for the pleasant experience and your help.

bp

There’s a good selection of hot and cold meals for on the go here.Easy access in the lorry, or for cars too and then straight back onto the A90 again. I usually drop in here if I feel like a hot drink and to use the rest room quickly and get back on the road again.This service station is easy for fueling up the truck and they have got AdBlue on the pump too for easier filling on the fuel card.

Clark's Bakery Ltd

Price to quality ratio is very favourable selection is abundant and whether your looking for a quick bite on the go or a meal to take home and cook you can't go wrong, the customer area does feel a little cramped but not in any problematic

McDonald's

Sitting on a frosty morning in Dundee, with low lying moon in sight, beautiful sky and even caught sight of geese migrating South. Coffee 10/10. Regret my food choice of bacon roll. Should have chose a mcmuf and too much Tommy k. Jack from customer care was great and actually initiated support twice, first to support linking app to self service and then again to fill up water bottle. Establishment is however lacking good tap water. Thanks Jack for your good service

Fisherman's Tavern

Popped in for a couple of drinks and pleased that there were excellent cask ales available. Comfortable and friendly atmosphere. Been a pub for nearly 200 years. They have a hotel next door converted from traditional cottages. Broughty Ferry is a lovely place and the pub is just a short stroll from the waterfront.

The Wine Press

Great night of good wine, good food and fabulous company in the lovely atmosphere of The Wine Press. Only slight negative was the very cold draught every time the door opened.

The Barrelman

A nautical themed rum bar with a delicious selection of food. Have been here a good few times and have not been disappointed once :)The venue hosted a 200~ after-party of students and technical professionals that fully enjoy a drink and the staff made sure everything ran

CommuniTAYfood, Cafe & Social Supermarket

Very clean and pleasant cafe, gentleman serving me was really good, and the chef in the kitchen asked if everything was all good. I was stuffed afterwards, and even picked up one of the tray bakes as I was leaving.....

The Braes Bar & Restaurant

Great place for a family dinner, dog friendly, quick and friendly service and reasonably priced. Ate here 3 times during a week stay in a caravan on the park. Would even stop in for a meal if I was passing and not staying in the park.

The Counting House - JD Wetherspoon

Attractive building originally opened as a bank in 1856. Usual decent Wetherspoons food and enjoyed the caledonian burger with haggis which we can unfortunately never get at home in England. Excellent range of ales and particularly liked the Lurcher stout. Friendly helpful staff.

Rama

Visited here for dinner and we were pretty impressed.First note- it gets busy! 6pm on a Saturday in March and fully booked for the night (and others were also turned away while we were there) so call at least the day before to book. Saving grace- they do takeaway too (staff didn't advertise this as an option, we remembered it from website)- about a 30 minute wait from order to food ready and don't forget to ask for cutlery!Food itself was very yummy! Good portion sizes and lots of flavour for sweet and sour king prawns/veggies in soy sauce/ rice. Also impressed that there was lots of sauce too which helped.Although we didn't dine in, the decor seemed nice and the staff were friendly!Vegetarian options: Lots of flavour on the veggie options, variety too! The veggies tasted fresh and would definitely eat here again!

Piccolo

I love Piccolo’s. It’s such a lovely restaurant nestled in the heart of the Perth Road. It’s cozy and intimate, with very chilled music in the background, that lets you chat and catch up with friends without drowning out your conversation. The staff, headed by Athol are fantastic without exception. Nothing is any trouble for them. They recently helped friends of ours arranged an intimate birthday get together for me and Athol went the extra mile to make sure we all had the most wonderful time. The food is authentic and wonderful, you just know it’s made with care. I especially love the pate and my husband loves the King Prawn Pepperoncino. There’s not many places around nowadays where you feel food and surroundings are carefully thought out. Lovely environment if you want something a bit special. Thank you team Piccolo

Serendipities Catering and Events

Went here for breakfast and had the sweet French toast - it was topped with lots of fruit and syrup and was totally delicious. Really chill atmosphere in here and the staff are super nice. Prices reasonable too - highly recommend!Dietary restrictions: Fully vegan

Nando's Dundee - Nethergate

This is the best burger have tasted in Dundee. So yeah I liked it..:but the fries was so salty.And I honestly think it was expensiveKid-friendliness: Cheaper menu for kids.

Costa Coffee

Visited the Costa while shopping at Tesco The hot chocolate was okay but the sandwiches were really good. The staff was friendly. The seating arrangement was comfortable and the shop environment was cozy.Vegetarian options: LimitedKid-friendliness: Yes

Agacan Turkish Restaurant

Wonderful service, a beautiful restaurant, and utterly, utterly delicious food. A must-visit for meat eaters in Dundee - but book your visit well in advance! An intimate number of covers and a carefully honed menu mean that this restaurant is often full to the gunnels.

Cinnamon Indian Restaurant

This was a great find on our trip to Dundee. It is tiny and it does look like someone's front room but the food and service were amazing. Loads to choose from on menu and portions were a good size. The spiced onions were amazing!!! Definitely worth a visit if in the area

Parlour

We had been wandering the west end of Dundee trying to find some healthy and delicious vegetarian food. We stumbled across the Parlour cafe and were delighted to have done so. It’s a small, cosy and friendly place where we found the service exemplary and the food just what we needed. I enjoyed a freshly-made slice of tortilla with a tasty salad while my husband found his halloumi and aubergine baguette (also with salad) delicious. Just as importantly, the pot of tea for one was enough to serve 4 mugs had I been thirsty enough. Recommended.

Pacamara Food & Drink

PACTASTIC!Second time visiting & it’s had a facelift since last time, no wobbly tables!!!We had the Colombian Eggs, Halloumi & of course the worlds best hash browns Presentation is very good, service first class but most importantly the flavours are devine, is there a better breakfast spot in Tayside? If so I am yet to find it!Well done all for the first class service & great food!

Tailend Dundee

The tastiest fish in town. Although I only visit Dundee once a year, I definitely visit Tailend Dundee - the fish is prepared deliciously, the portions are large, and the service is excellent. Thank

Tay Fry Inn

I only leave reviews is if something is really good or really bad! Just stopped here for a bite to eat! the fish here was lovely and fresh cooked to perfection as were the chips! Battered pizza and sausage was great too! Will come back. would definitely recommend!

Starbucks Coffee

Very friendly and very helpful staff who go out of their way to help at all times even when they are busy elsewhere. Food and coffee as expected in Starbucks, but served well and with aplomb.

Collinsons Restaurant

Pre-meal bread: salty, garlicky and rich in flavor, very fluffy.Appetizer: Chicken and Prune Ballotine, one star in tasteI don't understand the purpose of this dish.Baked Smoked Haddock The saltiness of the cheese, the creaminess of the sauce, and the sourness of the pickles are well balanced. Recommendation index five stars.Main dish: Slow Cooked Blade of Beef. After slow cooking, it melts in your mouth and is very tender. five starsPan-Roasted Venison Steak is chewy, and the curry cream sauce and spices blend well. Five stars.Disadvantages: We went after one o'clock. Waited at least half an hour between appetizer and main course. The main course wasn't served until after two o'clock. Business may be so good that in order to increase the table turnover rate, the distance between tables is a bit close.Summary: The presentation is exquisite, the lighting atmosphere is very strong, and most dishes are highly recommended. The ingredients are fresh and the spices are just right! ! Overall five stars personally! !

Duke's Corner

Service is pretty Scottish... They won3run to you even if they are not serving any clients. However staff is nice and polite. What I love the most is the heaters, and you won't freeze in this place. Be ready to sweat, specially if you dance. Love the dance floor and stage. If you drive, they have this outstanding German non-alcoholic beer! Absolutely marvellous.

Glenn's Fish & Chips

I'm glad I went 50 yards round the corner and tried here. The batter on the smoked sausage was light, crunchy and crispy. The chips were soft and fluffy with a slight crispiness. Everything was cooked to order so a little wait, but when its this tasty who cares. The staff were lovely as well and I look forward to returning.

The Pancake Place

Very cosy and quiet atmosphere, great for a quick bite to eat or a more intimate meeting. Staff very quick to serve and observant of your needs. Food was very tasty with a good range and very reasonably priced.

Dora's

First time been to the old doras in years! Must admit pleasantly surprised I loved the old doras but the quality of this was so good I felt had to put up a review, fish is fantastic. Mrs had a jumbo sausage supper, a chef - she says it's cooked very well. Will be back thanks ?

Cous Cous

Fantastic food, great service and always with a smile. Iv ordered for delivery and collection numerous times and never been disappointed. I always go for the 16inch pizza and sometimes mix it up with a calzone or a donner. The donner is really clean, not overly greasy and is always cooked well. Not undercooked or cut off like belt straps. 10/10Dietary restrictions: Halal

The Speedwell Bar

Traditional pub with very good selection of drinks and good service. Excellent choice of malt whiskies. Small selection of excellent toasties with tea or coffee if requested. Can be busy but bar area is reasonably large with two room off to sit in.

Millies Cookie's Dundee Overgate Shopping Centre

Suzanne was so kind & helpful , Suzanne also offered to drop my daughters cookie off with working in the centre which was very thoughtful:) definitely be back thank you so much ?

Little Things Cafe

I went in around 1pm for some brunch after another cafe I was going to try had a queue out the door, fair to say i’m happy I ended up going to Little Things instead. The servers were wonderful and so kind, I got smashed avocado with poached eggs and it was lovely. I also had a mocha (added cream and marshmallows) and I have to say it was probably the best Mocha i’ve tried absolutely beating chains like costa and starbucks. I sat from around 1pm til 3:30pm to get some uni work done. I had an iced peach tea and hot chocolate too and they were both delicious. I’ll absolutely be returning to Little Things in the future!(Plus their cakes and doughnuts are amazing ?)

Highlander Board Game Café

Found this wee place tonight after our plans to go to another coffee shop fell through. Dundee doesn’t have enough indie coffee shops that are still open in the evening so very glad I found the Highlander Board Game Cafe and will defo be making regular visits going forward. The owner is super friendly and approachable…and pours a mean cappuccino! Highly recommended, defo worth a visit.

The Phoenix

A great man once said "decent boozer". He couldn't be anymore correct. Great ales and a wide selection of lager. Reasonably priced. Toilets are great for hiding in (if you're blind) and if you find yourself in here on a Friday, you have the pleasure of watching at least one bloke pass out on account of their liking of decent ales.

Discovery Point and RRS Discovery

A fascinating visitor centre, and a wonderful ship.The visitor centre has some interesting exhibits, showing the shipbuilding skills/some unique features in RRS Discovery, her history, and antarctic exploration at the start of the 20th century, which she pioneered.There's also an interesting historic Dundee display (then through projectors; now, once the screens lift, through the great view at the top of the building).And the star of the show is the ship itself, which is excellently preserved.Not to be missed

Verdant Works

Fantastic. Learn all about how jute is grown in India and why it then came to Dundee and became such an important industry. The Verdant Works was built in 1833 and by 1864 had 70 power looms and 2,800 spindles and was employing 500 workers involved in spinning and weaving jute. The industry employed 50,000 in the city at its peak. By 1889 though this mills time as a true textile works is over. The staff are friendly and helpful and it was lovely to see some of the machines working and be able to ask questions. See the architecture of the building from the viewing platforms and enjoy the different displays and the mighty 1801 steam beam engine. There's also a lovely cafe and gift shop though it would have been good to see some more jute made items. We got a combined ticket with Discovery which made it extra good value. Free parking next door for visitors.

Wee Mexico

great food at affordable prices, lauren is the most lovely waiter thankyou for the great food and servicewill be back soon xDietary restrictions: vegan , vegetarian, meat, everything

Church Dundee

Amazing night out with a great atmosphereMy friend lost a valentines present ring, and the staff were AMAZING about it. They let us stick around at the end of the night to search the dance floor, eventually found it in the lobby area and everyone was happy

Luigi's Pizzeria

Small businesses make any community and this place is one of the best we have. Just beautiful food, perfectly priced given the quality, great delivery too (mindfully knocked the door quietly after my request because of a newborn!) Couldn't recommend more

Halley's Bar

Number 57 Pub Company

Went to ticketed Hogmany it was a great night with fantastic atmosphere. Staff helped make the night also live band. Piper and 2 drummers brought in New Year will definitely be back.

Doc Ferry’s Bar

Pour a good Tennant's, very reasonably priced selection on offer and very cheerful and friendly bar staff. Good character bar and seems popular with the locals. Great wee place.

Butties

Probably my favourite roll shop. Have been going here for years since I was a kid getting my haircut at Mike’s Barbers next door which was always followed with a bacon roll.Since then butties has grown and opened some new shops, but the food is still terrific and the prices are still really low.They do an absolutely banging breakfast for about a fiver and is well worth trying. There’s also a scooby snack which is basically an entire breakfast on a roll - also amazing.Parking: Free car park around the back

Super Snack

Absolutely amazing food! Went there for the first time today after my bosses recommendation (after he’s been going there for years) and fell in love immediately.Safe to say, I’ll be back there tomorrow and many days after that! Can’t wait to try more from the menu!!
