  “Good food and good service. Enough space to sit down, you pick your own table and the waiters do not interact much with you. Everything must be done through their app. We did not quite like this... to have to install an app just to order and pay, and the registration process in the app seems unnecessary. But after this minor detail, everything was good.”

  “I have been a semi-regular since the Brig O'Don opened and seen its various incarnations as owners come and go, but I have been disappointed by the latest changes made by Belhaven. Gone some time ago was the pensioners menu, but at least the lunch menu gave decent choices at a fair price, but the new lunch menu is limited to chiabatas which are difficult for pensioners to chew. The main menu appears to be more expensive and yesterday, with a group of friends who were mainly pensioners, we ordered in advance and were a) disappointed by the lack of service, and b) by the quality of the food. My Balmoral Chicken was half the size it used to be, and lacked the lashings of sauce it used to have. Overall, very disappointed. When we have organised lunches here in the past, we have had table service for drinks and coffee. Not this time, so I'm afraid you missed out on a drinks order and coffees at the end. The staff were offhand, but as there seemed to be only three of them on, then I'll let them off, but there was no awareness of their customers. We were a church group and we were meeting our new Priest who was addressing us after the meal with your three staff members deciding to have a loud discussion right beside our table just as he was talking to us. I very much doubt whether we will return with the pensioners from close by feeling that they have been priced out. By the way, no drinks were offered to the two people who had ordered from your lunch menu. Overall, a poor show.”

  “We had a fantastic time at Brig o' Don, thanks in no small part to Lexi! Her friendly, welcoming personality made the whole experience so enjoyable that we ended up staying much longer than we'd planned. She was attentive, cheerful, and made us feel right at home. The food was absolutely ace too – fresh, delicious, and really hit the spot. Lexi is a real credit to the hospitality industry, and her excellent service made our visit one to remember. Great service, great food, and a brilliant atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!”

  “Popped in for a light evening dinner. Nice atmosphere, quiet when we were there, and dogs welcome if you have one 👍 My daughter and myself shared the 3 for £15 starters. (Southern fried strips, boneless chicken wings & calamari. Completed with triple scoop ice cream and sticky toffee pudding with custard. Everything seemed fresh, piping hot and delicious. Staff were friendly and very helpful. Defo adding to our eat out list when visiting the area. Thanks”

  “Been visiting Brig of don frequently with my husband and we are never disappointed. The food is great and affordable. We usually go for steak and it’s better than some of the high end restaurants. We had a great experience tonight as we have been to another restaurant and the food was so awful we send it back and came straight here instead. Even tho it was after the last call the lovely staff still put our two steaks through. Shout out to the chefs and the lovely servers Lexi and Esme, the meal was fabulous and We will be back again!”

  “We love Brig O Don’s! Less than ten minute walk from Hillhead Student Village and a 20% student discount on food AND drinks. The food is always delicious. The outside patio is covered and lovely, the vibe inside is always relaxed, and the service is warm and friendly. I will miss this place! Thank you Lexi and Anna (and others) for this wonderful atmosphere.”

  “3 of us really enjoyed our meals yesterday when we took our son for dinner, to spend some one on one time. It's become our new favourite and we'll definitely be back soon. I enjoyed the macaroni cheese, my hubby had the chicken fajitas (which he did say was a little spicy but he enjoyed it regardless), and my son enjoyed a burger. We managed to make a couple little changes no problems. Service was great too.”

  “Went for a Sunday roast with my partner and two dogs and instantly felt welcome. Plenty of space and very accommodating for the dogs. Our server Alexis was particularly brilliant, friendly , engaging and made the whole experience more enjoyable. Thanks to Alexis, for welcoming atmosphere and a lovely evening. Highly recommend. The roast was delicious, we stayed for dessert and hot drinks while enjoying a board game.”

  “Lovely pud/restaurant. Has a nice atmosphere inside, which we really enjoyed. It is relatively clean and doesn’t have much wear and tear which is rare to see. The food is good but at the same time average depending on what you order. The members of staff are friendly and do check on their customers. The interior is to my taste for such place, the style is maintained throughout which is nice to see. Some sitting areas have windows near them which is nice but there are also darker area to sit at like the bar and the middle, additionally there is an outside area with heating lamps. The squid wasn’t bad, the sauce that it came with was lovely but it wasn’t fully cleaned off as it still had that rubbery line which can be removed which made it chewy. They sell a wide range of non alcoholic drinks and drinks that are alcohol in a way but 0%. The salmon with potatoes wasn’t bad and the sauce that came with it was lovely. However the salmon was so crispy/cooked at the top that it was hard to chew through. The prices are reasonable. The dessert was nice but for me a bit too sweet.”
