Food wasn't anything special. Prices were a tad expensive for what it was. Nice location and staff were

The setting is fantastic, a bright, clean and warm space, nicely presented and welcoming. Fantastic views of the Campsies. Fun play area for the kids with loads of toys. Service on the day we were there was slow and inconsistent. Coffee was weak and breakfast roll came with cold-lule warm filling. I'm sure they can do better, will try again sometime.

Pity there's not much for sale,except food and dogs should be allowed inside too,plus looks like a school class room,not atmosphere about the place !

I am a regular customer at Oscars with my 3 year old granddaughter who loves to see the horses and play in Chloe's corner. We enjoy the food and service is fine. However I was there recently and discovered the play area has been moved and a roof added on. It has made it nigh on impossible for adults to be in there with the kids, some of whom want a carer in with them to play with. A child in there cannot see their carers easily, nor can the carer keep an eye on the child! This can turn the visit into a series of comings and goings between child and carer, not ideal for a cafe. The previous area was super and am sorry to say that the new area, for me anyway, has more against it now than for it. Shame. Ps my 3 year old granddaughter is almost touching the roof.

Lovely views. Surly service. Overpriced. UPDATE Yes, I did go back because the kids love the horses and I needed a cup of tea... Re HMCA's review from August our table was cleared TWICE of food/drink that we hadn't finished (once while I took the wee one to the play area and again when we went to the loo - I left a bag/jacket behind to indicate we hadn't left). Wondering if it was the same member of staff whose response to my complaint was downright rude. Another member of staff (management?) intervened and deducted a small amount from the bill but didn't speak to me. Some customer service training is badly needed.

UNFAIR REVIEW! As regular visitors to Oscar's, we enjoy the food, ambience and friendly staff at this cafe, so were saddened by the negative review left by HMcA on Thursday 17th August. We were present that day and would say, in the words of someone more famous, "recollections may vary". The cafe is undoubtedly child- friendly but it is fact that the noise level that lunchtime was horrendous and the waitress (a lovely lady btw) was entirely justified in asking for consideration for other customers (with or without children of their own). She did not deserve the rude and humiliating replies she received from these three mums, nor the nasty and sarcastic comments in their review. This trio have vowed never to return, for which we can all be truly thankful.
Amazing scenery, friendly staff and variety of choices on the menu to suit all dietary requirements. Lovely terrace outside that’s dog friendly in the nice weather with stunning views. Great cafe for all.

NOT BABY FRIENDLY -AVOID. We went for lunch as 3 mums with young babies all under 1. Despite there being a lot of other children there playing in the play bit we were told by a rude waitress to keep our babies quiet and that they were making too much noise ? none of our babies were crying they were just happily babbling away to each other. Not that it would matter even if they were crying, they are babies it's not exactly possible to stop a baby making noise and why would you even want to when they are happily babbling away?! Absolutely shocked that a place that advertises itself as a children's play cafe could ask its customers to keep their babies quiet...clearly this staff member thinks children should be seen and not heard ?. The manager was extremely apologetic about her member of staff and asked her to apologise to us to which we recieved a sorry not sorry apology. Let's hope that member of staff is kindly asked to find herself a job at a library or something more her noise level. Anyway we won't be back and we definitely would not recommend! Having been to most cafes in the area with our babies and never recieved anything but warm welcomes we won't be visiting oscars again! If I could leave 0 stars I would!

Lovely aspect in Mugdock area. Fun to see horses being trained in the stable grounds immediately outside cafe. Would have given food higher rating, but my scone, though nice, was a bit dry. Small criticism. Great, friendly staff. Lovely to sit in the cafe and spend an hour or two chatting over a coffee and cake

Food is mediocre and on the pricy end for what you get. Not for me I guess. Kids were happy enough tho’Kid-friendliness: Loud kids are the norm here ?

Although they have a play area for children, my 16 month old grandson was apparently making too much noise according to the waitress who had a complaint from 2 elderly women ! Not a pleasant experience and won't be backKid-friendliness: As long as your children don't open the toy box which is within the play area then nobody should complain ( hopefully)
