About this restaurant

Great for brunch
Kid-friendly
Good for groups

With our focus on local luxury for all, we’re passionate about serving great food and drinks in a warm and friendly, stylish environment. Our drinks cabinets are stocked with great gins, Scottish whisky, interesting wines and of course Tank Beer is the centre-piece of a diverse beer range. We embrace luxury comfort dishes across our food menus, so you’ll find quality ingredients, classic dishes and a few gourmet twists and surprises along the way. Highlights on our menu include our famous, locally sourced, beer-battered Fish & Chips and we have plenty of lighter summer options for those looking for a light bite. As well as enjoying food and drinks in stunning surroundings, our outdoor Terrace is the perfect spot to dine al fresco and make the most of the Scottish weather, with heaters and canopies to cater for all weather. Only a short 15 minute walk from the city centre.
