No. 1 The Grange

Pleasantly surprised at the quality of food and overall enjoyable dinner we had here. The fish & chip and burger options were both excellent and very much enjoyed by us. (Vegetarian options for burgers also available.) Had the informality of a local pub with quality food, an ideal destination for visitors. To avoid confusion: This pub seems to have been recently renamed to the "Brass Monkey Grange".

My partner and I and some of our friends came in for engagement drinks a few weekends ago and everyone made us feel so special! Emmett was incredibly accommodating, especially with our numbers being a bit difficult with a couple of people asking to join at late notice, and it meant we were all able to celebrate together and everything was top notch. Will come back for dinner at some point soon!!

Fabulous food well prepared, always look at the specials on the board. Welcoming team who looked after us really well. Good choice of beers again check the guest board. The haggis starter was just the right size and packed with flavours. The beef burger came with Blue Murder topping at modest extra cost and is much recommended. The Bouillabaisse was very rich and delicious. The vegetarian curry samosa huge. After two courses a third was a challenge we were only just up for. Sadly what was described as a creamy spiced rice pudding with apples and ice cream (home made) was even more solid than school versions, full of spicy tastes but required cutting not spoons. The sticky toffee pudding a bit too sweet, the chocolate torte excellent as the ice creams. Worth the journey . Parking on street and close by seemed to be easy after about 6.30.

Great modern pub which manages to pull off spacious and stylish at the same time as cosy, friendly and local. The staff are really friendly and helpful and the kitchen do a great job of tasty food, fuss-free menu and good prices. Also, it's not often you come across a kids menu that gives you the same high-quality food as the adults - nice job!
