"On this occasion, a mixed experience. Met friends at 5pm for drinks. Table already booked for 8pm to dine. Bar busy, tables full of dirty glasses. We were invited to share a long table with another party. I made two trips to the bar with about sixteen empty glasses to make space for new drinks. Great to see the place so busy as it's our only local. My husband and his mates are regulars every Friday night, often on other days too. Unfortunately on this particular visit there was no draught beer or cold white wine. The reason for no hand-pulled beer was “The manager is cleaning the lines”. Yes really!!! Tea-time on December 29th whilst the pub and restaurant were heaving… It gets better!!! “The manager was still cleaning the lines over one hour later”. My husband and his friends drank Guinness, not their drink of choice but they are forgiving chaps. Apparently Howard who had arrived before us ordered a pint of cask beer and when he expressed his dismay at the timing of the line-cleaning was told, “if you don’t like it you can go somewhere else”. When I found my Chardonnay to be quite warm, I went to the bar and asked the barman if there was any “cold” white wine, he mauled my glass and said “it’s been in the fridge”, I replied “but it’s not cold”, he offered to put some ice in it. I didn’t want ice in my wine, it’s supposed to be served nicely chilled without the need for ice to water it down. To my surprise the barman offered to sell me a whole bottle of wine (presumably with a bucket of ice). I opted for ice and a dash of soda in my warm wine. Thinking ahead I asked if there were any other bottles of Chardonnay in the fridge so that I might have a glass of my favourite wine with a meal later on. The barman could offer no assurance, to be fair he seemed a little out of his depth, some further training will resolve this in the future. I attempted to discuss my experience with Johnny the restaurant manager when he came to our table later in the evening, he was uninterested, unapologetic and simply said, “We’ve been busy”. The food was ok, not fine dining but enjoyable and served to a good standard as we’ve come to expect from the Broughton Inn. I still feel disappointed by the shoddy attitude of certain staff members that evening. In the absence of an alternative within walking distance from our homes we will continue to spend our money there but with less enthusiasm than before. My current opinion of the management remains low."

"I don't usually write reviews, but I had to share my experience at The Badger. The service was extraordinary and the food was of great quality. There are many good options on the menu, even though it can be a bit on the pricey side. However, the delicious food makes it worth the cost. I must commend the staff for their exceptional service, especially on Thursday, November 23rd, when they had to handle a verbally abusive group near us. Despite the difficult situation, the staff remained professional and provided excellent service. I hope the management recognizes their efforts on that night. The verbally abusive group was incredibly rude and should reconsider their behavior. There are plenty of vegetarian options available for both vegans and vegetarians at this restaurant."

"Receptionist Couldn’t fine our Open Table booking, but they had plenty of tables available so not a problem, but might have been had they been busy. We chose the Sunday roast beef. Cabbage was a little on the cool side. Beef was quite fatty and fairly tough, considering that it was 28 day aged. Roast potatoes were very good, as were the parsnips and carrots Soft drinks expensive small lemonade and lime £2.45) Overall value fair."

"As it‘s been said, there is a separate vegan menu available with quite a lot of options for a „normal“ restaurant (3 starters, 5 mains and 3 desserts). We had the Winter Salad, Soup of the day (a separate vegan one with parsnip and apple), the Tomato Tarte and the Wrap with relish. Everything was delicious and very fresh. For dessert, we ordered a (warm) slice of apple pie, which was excellent as well. Highly recommend this place!"

"I initially faced an issue with my reservation not being received by the restaurant through Open Table. Thankfully, I had a printed copy of the confirmation, which allowed them to accommodate us. I recommend booking directly with them instead. It took about an hour from our arrival to when our order was finally taken. The food was excellent, but the service was quite slow during busy times, despite the team's politeness and friendliness. For a better experience, I suggest visiting on a quieter night."

"What a difference a couple of days can make! The food was just as delicious as during our first visit, but the service was a different story. It's been a long time since we've encountered such a long list of service issues, from the moment we arrived right through to the difficulties we faced when it came time to pay the bill—it was truly appalling. Our friends even wondered why we had chosen Balloch House for this dining experience, despite the high quality of the food."

"The Broughton Inn is a pleasant chain owned pub with traditional wood beam interior the type you would expect in a rural historic building that is over 150 years old. We visited for a pre Mothers Day meal with my parents and as they are in their eighties it was good to see that access was easy for them. One thing that they commented on was that parking was difficult as there were a lot of commercial vans taking up car parking space and they struggled to find somewhere to park. The food was very good and certainly good value for money. The waitress that served us was pleasant and attentive. The only criticism that we all agreed on was that the ambient music was a bit too loud. I am sure it didn't bother the other guests but for us it made conversational a little difficult as my parents are both a bit hard of hearing. That apart I would certainly recommend giving the Broughton Inn a visit."

"Despite arriving 30 minutes early, we were seated immediately, and our drinks came out very quickly. I was impressed by the variety on the Sunday menu. We each ordered different roast dishes, and they were all outstanding. I tried the triple platter featuring beef, pork, and turkey. The vegetables were excellent too—at least three varieties among our group of five! The dessert selection was fantastic; I could have chosen at least three options. I ended up going with the apple and rhubarb crumble accompanied by hot custard to round off my meal. It was great value too, coming in at around £28 per person, which included two pints. And let's not forget the friendly and attentive staff!"

"I made a reservation through Opentable, but when we arrived, there was no record of it. They informed us that they don't work with Opentable. Fortunately, we didn’t have any trouble getting a table. All four of us ordered the three-meat meal, which was supposed to include beef, turkey, and pork. We received beef that was tough and filled with gristle (our dog enjoyed it when we got home), turkey, and gammon instead of pork. The meal was lukewarm, and the Yorkshire pudding was overcooked. The dessert was decent, especially the apple pie with custard served as a mini dessert alongside coffee. However, my friends ordered the Banoffee pie, and were disappointed by the very small portion they received."

"the black horse is just around the corner of a related one we visited, who said they were already there and said it was good. we were not disappointed. we visited at 1 hour to lunch. inside there were iron beams everywhere that gave this old world look and quite spacious. a good selection on lunchtime. we all chose the chicken cakes that were big and tasty with chips that were big and fluffy. we had no appetizers or desserts, just as the main thing is big. it was very busy this lunchtime that shows how popular this place is. the staff was also pleasant and helpful. highly recommended."

"To this day. Roast beef came dry and cold. I could say before it sent the table back. Odd would send this to customers. Second step was better, but still dry meat was brown throughout the way. Cauliflower cheese (extra secondary dish) was simply cooked with a tasteless cream sauce. Yorkshire Pud was burned and smoked. Too bad when we've been a few times recently and every other time the food was great."

"Absolutely awful experience! After waiting nearly 3 hours for my food, and several phone calls later. They tried to say the driver has already delivered my food this was not the case. Rude staff on the end of the phone. No apology, no refund nothing! AVOID!!! Service: Delivery Meal type: Dinner Price per person: £10–20 Food: 1 Service: 1 Atmosphere: 1"

"If you like Sugar and salt this is the place for you. Tried a few dishes, all cream sauces taste the same and loaded with sugar. Pakora loaded with salt. Shame this place has declined, their curry sauce used to be the best years ago under the hotel, now everything is loaded with sugar and salt. Hope this place gets its self back to the good old days. Also they own the carry out at Hardgate cross besotted McHughs Estate agents, there are much better places like Rajani in Bearsden who deliver and don’t do re-heats even with the starters. They also don’t use colouring and their prawns are much larger. Hope the Bombay sort themselves out and get back to the good old days and cut back on colouring and additive’s and sugar salt. Fresh and no more reheats will get you back to the best in Clydebank. Please do it !!"

"Decent food, and served very quickly. Good menu variety. Prices probably a little steep for some of the menu but others were very well priced. Had the chilli beef nachos which was nice but needed to be a bit fresher. Girlfriend had southern fried chicken burger which was amazing! Cajun fries were brilliant!"

"Booked table for 5. When we arrived offered table for 4 with seat placed on end. Declined this table told proper table would be available 20 minutes later. Went for drink in the Back Bar. Returned 30 minutes later and shown to suitable table. Drinks took long time to arrive. Starters average and lacked flavour. Fries over salted and they were changed. The food is lacking in flavour and service is variable. Declined to pay service charge (which I normally do). The Menu is lacking choice and expensive. Time the for the Hard Rock upped their game."

"My partner and I took my mother to Cabana for an early Mother's Day meal, as we had previously enjoyed the food and experience there. However, our visit on Saturday was disappointing. My partner's burrito arrived without the meat filling, and despite there being more staff than customers, it took a long time to get their attention. The portion sizes were small and overpriced, and the drinks were expensive. The salt cod fritters were delicious, and when we mentioned the missing meat in the burrito, they adjusted our bill. It seemed like just a bad day for the restaurant, which was unfortunate as I wanted it to be a pleasant experience for my mum."

"The Boat Inn is a lovely venue even on a cold wet December evening in the week before christmas and looked promising when we arrived at 7:30 pm the time I had chosen when making a booking through this web site the evening before. I was surprised that I needed to register my car but this process and the fact you need to do it was clear and straight forward. We were greated in a warm and friendly way and were expected, the place was busy but not packed, we had quite a small table where staff or other quests had to squeze past making it a bit uncomfortable especially when a biger table not in the throughfare remined empty through out our stay. It soon became apparent however that all was not well when other guests were asking where their meals or drinks were. We also had to remind the 2 serving staff that we had not received our drinks 20 minutes after placing the order. Our food did take quite a while to come, especialy the main course but apart from luke warm onion rings it was most enjoyable. This seems such a shame for such a great venue as when you look at comments on this web site from 12 months ago the problems appear to be the same even down to the cold onion rings ! I would go back to the Boat Inn especially in the summer but I would hope not to experiance the same problems again."

"Interesting Italian restaurant, the idea is that you order food at a counter and have it made fresh in front of you. The staff were very friendly and nice. But the downside of the model is that you do spend a lot of time standing around waiting for your food, whereas you may prefer to be able to sit down if you've been walking around a lot. It was nice to have such fresh pasta prepared in front of me though. If you order a pizza you do get a buzzer to take back to your table."

"I had the best experience in Bloc Pop Up today, I arrived to get a take away pizza with my young daughters but the waitress found us a table outside and so we decided to stay as it was sunny and a great evening to eat outdoor. We ordered margaritas pizzas and a plain burger, the food was absolutely delicious! The waitress were so very friendly and we really felt welcome there. This doesn’t always happen when we go out for dinner as my daughters are very young and as every child they can be quite noisy and messy but the waitresses really made us feel good! I will surely go back as we live very close! Thank you thank you thank you!! Absolutely stars!!!"

"the boat inn is a beautiful place also on a cold wet December night in the week before Christmas and looked promising when we arrived at around 19:30 clock the time I had chosen during the booking by this website in the evening before. I was surprised that I had to register my car, but this process and the fact that they had to do was clear and straight. we were great in a warm and friendly way and expected the place was busy, but not packed, we had a small table where personal or other quests had to squeeze past to make it a little unpleasant, especially if a large table does not remember in passing through our stay empty. it soon became clear that everything was not good when other guests were asked where their meals or drinks were. we also had to remind the 2 employees that we had not received our drinks 20 minutes after the order. our food took a while to come, especially the main course, but apart from lukewarm tweebel rings it was most pleasant. this seems such a scandal for such a big venue as if they appear on this website 12 months ago the problems of being the same even up to the cold whirlpool rings! I would go back to the boat inn especially in the summer, but I would hope not to experience the same problems again."
