Our first visit for lunch and chose the set menu, food was excellent portions we're really good, chicken and leek pie was fresh made. All the staff were lovely very friendly even though the hotel was extremely busy for a lunchtime. Will definitely visit again
Ravelston House – EdinburghNostalgic visit to golden lion for a meal with my 86yr old father. Vegan options brilliant, staff cheery under great pressure. Staff performed above and beyond in order to try and satisfy the demand on the day. Management were not visible to us and should have been out supporting the staff and communicating the expected delays to the customers. The kitchen were producing the food as quickly as they could and it was delicious when it arrived. Communication to customers from management was the only issue on the day.
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingBrilliant meal and great service. A real treat. Thank you
Hamnavoe – Orkneys and ShetlandsHad a lovely lunch and great service. Always good at the golden lion .They never let you down for fine dining.
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingThe service was excellent the food was amazing
Steak and Cherry – GlasgowThird rate, needs to understand the market Attempting to compete with accredited restaurants with menu and pricing however quality of food does not match Food was fine, nothing special but equally not terrible quality Service is fast which is never a bad thing
Steak and Cherry – GlasgowThis restaurant has been open for just over 6 months. I have been 4 times and it has been excellent every time. The soups, starters, main courses have all been very good. I will certainly be going again and again in 2023.
Hamnavoe – Orkneys and ShetlandsParty of 16, had the Festive Menu, food was lovely, well presented, staff very friendly and efficient, would definitely recommend going.
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingSunday Roast was superbly delicious - all the usual things you'd expect on the plate, but everything just perfectly done. Starter soup (parsnip, celeriac + apple) was extraordinary - who'd have thought it could be that good!
Hamnavoe – Orkneys and ShetlandsGreat pre theatre menu and the staff are very efficient and so helpful Def be back
Steak and Cherry – GlasgowChristmas dinner for 4 pensioners on 16/12/22. Food pre-ordered but on hearing what the soup of the day was, one of our party asked to change to the prawn cocktail - absolutely no problem at all. The courses were served timeously and there was no pressure for us to vacate the table afterwards (which can sometimes be a pain after spending a fair amount on meals and drinks). The staff were friendly, efficient and courteous. Certainly getting back to it’s pre covid high standards.
Ravelston House – EdinburghFirst time at the Ravelston, booked a table for 2. Greeted by a young lad very friendly and polite. The waitress and waiter take took food order were nice and friendly. The food ordered was hot and very tastey. Defo would go back again..
Ravelston House – EdinburghBooked for Christmas lunch for 6. Had to amend to 4 on day. Arrived 5 minutes early table was not ready but just went to bar. Table ready in 10 minutes. Had pre ordered meals as requested but nothing had appeared after 25 minutes. Had to ask then food arrived quickly. Starters were delicious mains -all Turkey and trimmings-were lacking the pigs in blankets but delicious just the same. Desserts again were lovely. Bill arrived without drinks round but that was rectified when asked. Staff were friendly and helpful but having ambient music was quite loud. Good value meal all round
Ravelston House – EdinburghThe cronies dining room was very festive and cosy as it was so cold outside. The waiting staff were polite and friendly and we got our meals in good time. The food was generous and very tasty. It was freshly cooked and I’m sure home made on the premises. It arrived to our table hot and was presented nicely: I thought the menu was very well priced and I’m definitely going back in the new year.
The Golden Lion Hotel – StirlingOur party of 11 had a super evening. The festive Dinner was absolutely delicious (4 different main courses were chosen) and the service was excellent. I would thoroughly recommend it.
