Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeWe had a most enjoyable lunch at the Golden Lion Hotel yesterday Good selection of food very friendly staff Will definitely come back next time I’m is Stirling
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingWe booked a table for 3 on Wednesday early evening. We were attracted by the half price main meal promotion. The restaurant was fairly quiet with a couple of 2 seats and one large table of 8 or 10. I believe there was also the final group of a funeral party in the bar. We were served by a young girl and we ordered drinks first, 2 medium glasses of white wine and one zero alcohol beer .We then ordered 2 scampi and 1 enchiladas We were served our drinks and chatted for some time ,becoming very aware that nobody was being served their food orders. I can't say exact howlong we actually waited but it was well over 30 minutes. Nobody approached to acknowledge the delay. We were actually served before the large table who had arrived before us! The scampi was cooked " beyond" golden . It was overcooked. It was edible but disappointing . The enchiladas were good. When the bill arrived there was no reduction for half price Wednesday and we had also been charged for large glasses of wine! I went to the restaurant bar to query the bill. The half price was removed from the food bill but I was told we had drunk the wine and it had been a large glass. I questioned how we were supposed to know the measure of a drink in a glass with no measurements on the glass. The lady then went on to demonstrate the measures in each type of glass . I was made to feel that being served the wrong measure was my fault not that of the person who took the order or the older lady who had poured the measure. After some discussion I was told that the manager would have to authorise my payment for what I had actually ordered as opposed to what I had been served. There was no apology. It really was not the best experience.
Ravelston House – EdinburghGreat food, very friendly staff and fantastic service as always. Lovely little place and atmosphere
The Left Bank – GlasgowWe loved the restaurant because of the ambience, the service, the range and quality of food. We are returning this evening.
Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeGreat atmosphere and the staff went above and beyond to make our celebrations special. Food was spot on and good value too thank you !
The Left Bank – GlasgowWe were celebrating a family birthday and we couldn't have picked a nicer restaurant for the occasion. The food was delicious, loved the steak pie. Good value for money, too! Only five of us but we spent a good part of the afternoon eating and drinking right there! Lovely!
Ravelston House – EdinburghI had a salad which consisted of half a packet of mixed leaves from any supermarket, 2 slices of cold meat , ham, quartered , that was it, I complained and was told there was a dressing on it and they added a spoonful of coleslaw. I took 4 friends with me who didn’t enjoy their meal either, one has steak pie with cold potatoes and another had “white “ macaroni cheese. Mine was a smaller portion with a cream tea, scones and cakes were ok. The meal was £23 with 2 drinks which came to £35 each. I will never be back, the standards have indeed slipped since the last time I was there. No one came to our table to address the situation which beggars belief since I am being asked to comment on my experience . The waitresses were lovely though. Date 18.10.25
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingCame for lunch 18th October, bit disappointed as chips and veg were cold , also got 2 coffees advertised Brodies , definitely wasn’t that , don’t know what it was but not nice , overall disappointing
Ravelston House – EdinburghCafe Fish is the understated but over delivers jewel of the Tobermory culinary scene. Delicious food, friendly staff and great views.
Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeWe were installed in a cosy window corner and invited to an unexpected glass of champagne as it was my husband's 70 th birthday and then arrived the fattest lobster we have ever seen, it was perfectly cooked with garlic but the seasoning did not win over the taste of the lobster. Also ordered 1/2 a portion of mussels in white wine. More than enough for two and then finished the celebration with a sumptuous Pavlova dessert.
Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeHusband and I had THE MOST enjoyable meal at Cafe Fish last night. From the moment we walked in I knew it was going to be something special! We both enjoyed scallops to start which were sublime to say the least. The mains of fish stew and fish stroganoff were absolutely one of the best meals I've had! Service and ambience was excellent...if I could rate everything 10 out of 5 I would. We'll be back!
Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeFantastic food, clean, basic decor but fun, lively atmosphere. Excellent service. Fresh seafood served with good grace. No surprise that it is hard to get a reservation, even mid week in October.
Cafe Fish – Argyll and ButeVery relaxed atmosphere, lovely staff and food is amazing. Will be back for sure❤️

The Left Bank – GlasgowWe had a lovely lunch here on Saturday 11.10.25. The staff were friendly and helpful
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingMy mum and sister go to the Ravenston quite regularly so we decided to have my mum's celebration for her 80th birthday there. Things could have been much better, I was disappointed. There was only one waitress who was rushed off her feet, I really felt for her. There was no hand soap in the toilets it was bone dry so had obviously ran out a while ago. I asked a staff member about it who pretended to go get some but it was never filled up. It was so unhygienic, especially since kitchen staff also have to use them. Please put out bottles if you don't have any dispenser stuff. That said, the food was good and no one in my party had any complaint to make about that, which is great. But please put on more staff on a Saturday and put out hand wash bottles!
Ravelston House – Edinburgh2 courses for £16. Available Monday to Friday until 7pm.
