I made a reservation for Mother's Day at this restaurant for a 3-course set menu for three people. We have visited this restaurant twice before and the food was excellent on those occasions. However, we were disappointed with our experience yesterday. The kitchen restaurant itself was very cold and we waited for a while to be served. As we predicted, we were given a table near the door, which made us request to move tables for the second time due to the freezing temperature. Many diners were even eating with their coats on. It seemed that a couple of large groups of tourists arrived at the same time as us, causing the restaurant to quickly fill up. There seemed to be too few staff members fo...
The typical Scottish conundrum. I have recently visited a number of good owner run eating places in Scotland. All worth 5*. So what do you do when you find somewhere better ? For me the short answer would be 6 stars. So often, especially north of the Antonine Wall, one tends to find owner run eating places as being 5*. Then you come across somewhere better. Hence the Scottish Conundrum. First we did our typical ‘Buy a guide book’, then go for a coffee to read it before going round the property. It was just as it should be. Ok. A tour of the Castle, then lunch. I am a sucker for something local. So went for the Glamis Birdie. A shortcrust pastry parcel of venison, black paper and cranberry, w...
I’d give this place a 1 star if it was not for the fact that the coffee and scone were good. However the attitude of the young man, short dark hair and glasses, to a foreign person was shameful. I think the person was German. He was doing his best to order food and drink. But the man behind the counter gave him no time, muttered and mumbled, and basically did nothing to help this person out in understanding what was being said. A shocking reflection in how we, in this country, can sometimes treat our visitors. I did try to chat cleanly to the visitor myself, hoping that this might help. In other words interpret the staff members mumbles.
The menu at this restaurant offers a wide variety of options for vegetarians, which was a pleasant surprise. Everything we ordered tasted delicious and the service was quick, despite the busy crowd. It's great to have a cafe that serves good food so you don't have to search for a place to eat. Excellent job, keep up the good work!

Since we had toured the castle before we decided to have tea and scones while we waited for the rest of our extended family. If you have never tasted scones these are the best ever. We did not feel rushed and the service was great and everything was clean and organized.
The restaurant is beautifully decorated with family portraits hung on the walls, adding a warm and personal touch to the ambiance. Guests can enjoy a variety of drinks and delicious food options during their visit.
We had the perfect light lunch here for less than £10 each we had a bowl of Cullen skink and Aberdeen Angus beef slices with salad on granary bread delicious
We had coffee cake after our visit to castle. Clean, welcoming, nice to see parts of original kitchen still there. Coffee nice hot. Cake very tasty fresh.

Had a meal here while visiting Glamis Castle. Lovely staff and great food. We were able to eat outside as we had a dog with us.
We enjoyed the soup and sandwiches. Friendly staff and pleasant dining room space with easy access to castle and gardens.
