"Booked a table for a birthday dinner far in advance had asked for a good table, however we were sat at the bottom of the restaurant near the fire exit. The table next to us had children who they could not control, running around and nearly knocking our drinks over on numerous occasions. I realise this is not the fault of the restaurant but we actually had to move our table over when we arrived as we were far too close to them. Our waiter was unbelievably rude and did not utter more than two words to us during our dinner. No hello, no how are you doing just what you having? When our starter came he just put it down and walked away, I could not believe how bad the communication was. We finished our starter and again no communication, no how was your starter just took the plates away and that was it. Our drinks were near enough empty by this point and no offer of a refill. We continuously had to ask for drinks and when we did it was as if we were a problem. We asked for the bill off a different waiter (not on purpose she was just passing) who was nice and asked how our meal was etc. I did not complain to her as she had not served us during the meal, the man who did serve us came over and pulled the receipt from the card machine and walked off. No thank you, no nothing again. I did not tip when I usually do as the service during our meal was awful.The food was lovely, I have to say this as I was impressed by the food taste however the service was not good.I was so disappointed as we had heard such good things about Souter’s Inn. We had pre booked a taxi for 2 hours away and could not get one any sooner so we had to sit at the bar for this time and wait. Again, every time we needed a drink there was no offer by the bar staff."

Popped in on the way to play Turnberry, which is just down the road Nice breakfast , some more local produce would have been nice I.e haggis, potato cake etc would have made it more a “Scottish’ breakfast. But it was good Nice friendly, quick service would recommend and considerably much cheaper than eating at Turnberry

We have been frequenting this restaurant for years for breakfast and lunch. The food is wonderful, the staff is friendly, and the setting is lovely. Our only complaint is that the prices have significantly increased in the past year, so we do not visit as often. We would also appreciate having a healthy vegetarian lunch option. My partner absolutely loves the fish soup – it is a must-try!

Good food and service. Even better if you are a regular as they seemed to get plenty of chat and laughs and attention!Couldn't get my first choice of main and dessert, wee bit disappointing but it happens.Atmosphere busy but far too noisy some people like the busy feel but it wasn't relaxing for couples. EG wooden chairs (with no felt on feet) scraped back and forward on a wooden floor by diners arriving and leaving.

Went out as a mini family reunion, firstly staff are friendly, service is good, most of the food was good however the three of us that had the steak pie were very disappointed, far too dry when we told the man whilst paying the bill he said ‘well it’s Friday the pies are made on a Tuesday’ Er- ok then! I’d go back but not have the steak pie. Please don’t patronise your customers with shady excuses, it’s embarrassing. View menu

I was a little disappointed by my experience at this restaurant. The food was okay, but on the expensive side. However, the desserts were excellent. It was quite busy in the afternoon, but the atmosphere felt chaotic and the staff seemed disinterested. I think the upstairs area might have a better ambiance, especially in the evening. Our table felt too close to others, which was surprising given the current situation. Overall, we were excited to try a new place with friends, but we probably won't be returning.

I went to this restaurant with a work group and was thoroughly impressed. The decor is charming, with a beautiful old thatched pub exterior and a modern, fresh interior that still pays homage to its history. The menu was extensive and catered to all tastes. I started with a delicious prawn and salmon cocktail, followed by a perfectly cooked 10oz sirloin and finished off with a lemon meringue pie with raspberries and raspberry ripple ice cream. The service was attentive and discreet, overall excellent. While on the pricier side, it is definitely worth every penny. I highly recommend this place to everyone, it is truly impressive.

Have eaten here before a few times and I would say it's not as good as before. The toast did not come until we asked for it, which was after they served the main breakfast. To me, they had forgotten to take the toast out to us. I find that strange as they took the butter out and 15 mins later the breakfast came, between which staff had walked past the table several times and the restaurant only had one or two other tables dining. It might just be me but If I was working there I would notice that the table had butter sitting there and no toast, whether I took the butter out or another staff member. Apart from that the black pudding had a very strange artificial taste to it. I would describe i...

I have taken a while to write this post as I wanted to give the company some time to respond to the feedback I provided privately to them however that was a number of weeks ago and I have heard absolutely nothing.We popped in for a quick bite to eat before going down to turnberry. We sat at the bar and there were two elderly women already seated. The staff member came over (who I presume was the manager) and asked for our drinks order one of the elderly ladies beside us politely said excuse me we were here first and the waiter said I’ll come to you. He took our order then went to the ladies who placed their order. He then said you know patience is nice and the lady said sorry we were here be...
