Popped in for lunch and enjoyed a good meal. Greek salad was great and chicken burger was lovely. Great location opposite the famous 18th green and the St Andrews Golf shop.

Based on reviews I was hopeful. Sadly, my experience was poor.Let me start by saying service was good and when I complained about a course it was removed without question.However, there is no other way to describe the food as poor. Tasteless sourdough, inedible chicken supreme, and chips fried in old fat.We didn’t mention all the issues as the long suffering waiter was excellent. To add insult to injury he wasn’t able to accept a tip by card. “It just disappears”.Good location but I would avoid.

Excellent steakhouse within two blocks of the Old Course. Two or three course pairing. We opted for two courses to include steak, chips, salad, and dessert. We added oysters. With three rounds of the drinks the total came to about £80 including gratuity. Excellent service.

Service very slow even though the place was quiet. Some staff seemed to spend most of their time chatting. We only had a few snacks but they were very good. Outside area could have been cleaner. Staff were slow to clear tables so a large seagull did it for them..

Prompt service. Appeared one of the waiters was still learning or newish.He did a great job.Steak was cooked perfectly.Pepper sauce could of been more peppery.Waiters went out of their way to please the diners.See desert pictures below. A great way to finish a good meal.

Went during the open and was served breaded haddock and chips. Tasted like it was a frozen pack from Iceland!! Hardly any fish and a few chips underneath. Tiny wedge of lemon on each plate and my Wife's fish was burnt. As we were starving we ate it but on reflection should have sentvit back. I know they have a captured market during the golf but we will not be returning.

Amazing Quality food! I recently took my partner here for his birthday meal, and the service and quality of food was nothing sort of the best. I had the Smoked mackerel pate to start, followed by a huge portion of the most succulent fresh fish and chips you could ask for. I topped all this off with Italian ice cream! in short if you are looking for high quality food for a reasonable price, look no further! Thanks for an amazing meal!
