"My family dined at a table outside in front of the restaurant. Our table was assigned a number, so when we placed our order at the counter, they knew where to bring our food. Two of us shared the mackerel and leek quiche and the classic cullen skink meals. We enjoyed drinks and the beautiful view as we waited for our food. The quiche arrived at room temperature, but when I asked a server about it, she explained that was how it was served. She kindly offered to heat it up for me, which I appreciated. The salad was fresh and tasty, accompanied by a side of creamy coleslaw and chips (similar to French fries). The chips were crispy and delicious. The cullen skink was like a rich potato soup with thin slices of potato, leeks, and smoked haddock. It was served with bread and butter. While nothing stood out as exceptional, everyone in my party enjoyed their meals. The staff was friendly and efficient, and we had a lovely evening in a charming small town in Scotland."

Excellent pub selling local real ale. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Will be returning again this evening to sample what looks like a delicious and varied menu.

Stopped in Sunday, sat outside as it was glorious, had to go into order. Food was better than ok but not outstanding, good range o f beers and a few fizz cocktails. scampi, fish n chips, chilli wrap, cod loin “au poivre” , Bellini, small wine, zero alcohol lager and pint Maybe a tad overpriced but food was cooked nicely.

my wife and I were in portpatrick for a few nights and came to dinner for this night. the food was delicious. steak and ale pudding, thai curry and the fish and chips were all fantastic. nice friendly staff and everyone who sat around us have spoken. go back to any case, both nights we wanted to pudding the sticky toffe, but would not have done it.

The food at this restaurant is excellent, particularly the seafood platter which features lobster, langoustines, rollmops, prawn cocktail, crab claws, mussels, smoked salmon, and salmon fillets. After enjoying this fantastic dish, head next door to the pub for lively entertainment and a great atmosphere with friendly staff. Overall, I can't fault it - the experience was just excellent.

great hotel. room was nice and cleaned every day and tea/coffee, bathroom towels filled every day if necessary. management and staff really nice and friendly. breakfast (that is included) was really excellent and evening meal was fantastic and cheap. hotel bar area really busy both afternoon and evening with people with drinks or meals and drinks, so shows them how popular it is. would recommend a stay here.

very nice pub from the harbour. we sat after a beautiful coast (we had it deserved and enjoyed the sun and a few drinks. While we didn't eat here because we were there, we saw the food we saw very nice and there were certainly many people who enjoy it. as it was winter when we visited, there was only one hand pulled beer, but it was excellent and I could certainly have enjoyed some more when the time allowed.

Went for dinner which was very average. Menu and food is very My ‘Deep Fried Chicken’ had a catering coleslaw; it’s easy to make a decent fresh coleslaw? The frozen chicken breast is deep fried like a chip shop, it wasn’t pleasant and tasted of crease. My husband faired better with the cod which he said was average. My ‘luxury ice cream’ wasn’t so with sugared cream and the brandy snap basket, the fresh seasonal fruit was quarters of strawberry. Surroundings to match. This place doesn’t need to make an effort to make money so they don’t!

I spent a fun weekend in Portpatrick last year and am excited to return at the end of this month. We started off at The Crown on Friday night and decided to explore other pubs for food and drinks during the weekend. We had dinner at The Crown on Saturday and stayed until the end of the night for drinks and entertainment. On Sunday, we had lunch at The Crown, went for a walk, had a drink at another pub (whose name I can't remember), but ended up back at The Crown for Sunday night. Overall, The Crown is a fantastic pub with friendly staff, good prices, and a lot of fun!

"My wife found this when looking for a place for us to spend our wedding anniversary. It sounded good on paper. It was a long and tedious drive for us though and I wasn’t sure it was worth it. I was totally wrong! This place is superb and well worth any drive! The setting is great-it has its own beach and there is a small patio where you can sit and there is a heater there too if you need it. There’s a nice lawn in front of the hotel too where those with dogs took them for a walk. The rooms are all different and all well appointed with their own en suite. The costs of the rooms reflects the size of the room and not the facilities. If you are tall like me (6ft 2) I wouldn’t go for one of the rooms in the roof as the coomb ceiling is a pain. However the thing you go there for is the food and that is sublime! It is a set menu in the evening which reduces waste and helps control costs. You get 7 courses, all quite small , but at the end of the meal you are adequately fed but not full. We were there for 3 nights and had a different meal every night. All the dishes were superb but we had mushroom soup one night and it was the best soup I have ever tasted! In fact it was one of the best foods I have ever tasted! The breakfast is very good indeed and you can order whatever you like from the menu which is very comprehensive. I found that set me up for the whole day and I didn’t need a lunch. I must also mention the wine. The wine list is very comprehensive with some difficult to come by wines in it too like Chateau Musar. On 2 nights we went with the wine pairing list which I thought was very good value, especially the cheaper of the 2 lists we had every night. The hotel is a good centre for seeing things in the local area and , despite going in November we found things to occupy ourselves for the 3 days we were there. They have various themed weekends too which sound brilliant. But the hotel is so good it is worth going to anytime. We will certainly be back."

"For some reason I can not reply to your answer. Sadly you are absolutely wrong in everything you have stated, I find your tactic of attacking people who give less than 5 star reviews. I am not going to try to defend myself, as I stand by everything I said. I have made an appointment to see a solicitor about your untruthful comments. I would really of liked to put a good review up, however, I would not recommend this hovel to my worst enemy. Firstly the room was so small, and tatty, extremely dated with an alarm clock, which surely has been taken from a chalet from Pontins in the 1970s, that even the amazing view could not compensate. There was dog meat/food on the carpet, and I assume ash. When I went to look for someone to let them know, there was no one about. The bathroom was not fit for purpose, one as it was a converted cupboard, and the notice in the room explaining that the steam from the shower which was cracked set off the sensitive smoke alarm, so you could not even have a shower. Then when we went for breakfast, after waiting for 40 minutes for a breakfast which was a 1 sausage, a piece of streaky bacon, uncooked tomatoes and mushrooms, haggis, b pudding and beans. When I went to complain about this on the way out, I had the pleasure of speaking to someone called Donna, who was at best obnoxious, and as unhelpful as it was someone else 's fault, I quote I don 't clean the rooms, I don 't cook the breakfast . I would rather sleep in a tent than give money to this place, please look elsewhere, unless you want to feel as though you are being ripped off. In response to your reply I thankyou for it. I do not deny that I was irate, and if she cried, I feel terrible about that but I have also left things out, like the denial of the previous evenings attempt with the same lady about the state of the room, however I stand by everything I said, As you are true to form, as it never ever seems to be your fault, if you look at the previous low reviews, it is always someone else 's fault. Oh by the way breakfast took 40 minutes, and as you were not there, maybe you can check CCTV and see that the uncooked food was left, as was the haggis, however the toast provided was superb. I applaud your defense of your staff, I truly do. Hopefully you can maybe if you get another less than favourable review, see that it is the same points over and over again, and try to address them points, just a thought. Thanks again for your reply below, and I stand by everything I said, and truly can 't be bothered dissecting your reply, one slight point, I have witnesses about the night before, so I take with a pinch of salt, your comments"
