"1st time here as was given a voucher by family who use this place regularly. Lovely place and very snug but comfortable inside if a little loud. It was my wife and I and our 3yr and 6 Yr old granddaughters. Starters came out and they were lovely. Very tasty and fresh. (I had prawn cocktail, wife had haggis and whisky sauce and the girls had garlic bread all lovely! . Then it was like we were forgotten about and when the mains finally came out I was a bit disappointed. The girls both had a simple 7 pizza both were burnt .... one worse than the other. I had the chicken breast with haggis and whisky sauce before I even touched the haggis all I could taste on the potatoes and veg was pepper whether a pepper sauce was used accidentally or that's how it normally tastes, I dont know. (They tried to tell me it was the haggis that was peppery and it was normal but I hadn't touched the haggis yet tried my wife's starter and that was lovely . Her steak was spot on (hard to mess up but she enjoyed that. Myself and the girls didn't eat much and to their credit they removed the items from the bill which was appreciated. The main insult was when the waiter just handed my card and receipt back without even looking at me or acknowledging my thank you and simply marched away. Like I said was a nice wee place and we were looking forward to trying it out we hadn't eaten since breakfast but won't be back. Appreciate the food removed from the bill but the waiters attitude (although not horrible outrightly was not acceptable."

"We were SO looking to going to the cereal cafe as we are lovers of cereal, me especially and I was a great supporter when they first opened. We went in on a Sunday late morning and got in time to be seated just before it started getting busy. We were supposed to have table service but they were very busy and the guy behind the counter only looked about 14 so we were prepared to go up and order. Only thing was a lot of other people got their orders taken before us so not only were we waiting a very long time before we ate, but everyone besides the lad were moving at a snails pace. There was no sense of urgency or keeping up with the orders despite it really starting to get busy. My partner has many years experience in hospitality so it wasn't like we weren't sympathic but the level of apathy was unreal. Paper orders mean that someone is still running up and down the stairs to get the bowls made up rather than having one person upstairs taking orders and doing drinks, and one person making cereal downstairs. Just seems really inefficient. Two guys left because they were waiting for their coffee. This was a Sunday as well, not even a Saturday. The concept is there and they're obviously popular but wouldn't recommend to dine in until they get the system sorted. It's such a shame because I love cereal but I can't go back if I'm going to be waiting an age for my breakfast. FYI you get up to 4 types of cereal in a bowl, and extra toppings are 50p. The choice of cereal is supposed to be what's avaliable behind the counter but this isn't always accurate and the same goes for the milk."
