  “Reserved a table online, bit not needed as very quiet. Small menu but the food was absolutely delicious. Service was fantastic. There was plenty of parking, but this would be limited if both the hotel and restaurant were fully booked. Dog friendly”

  “In we went 13/3/26 at 5pm to use up a voucher that I received on December of last year - I had the feeling that we would be the only 2 diners in there & I was spot on, & a few other folks began to turn up a bit later than that. I opted for there stake pie 🥧 & it was delivered on a warm plate 🍽️ which appreciate & there were no tough bits of stake there & the vegetables were cooked spot on. My friend had there 🐠 & chips & her play was warm too & I tasted a lice of her fish g it was very nice & flakey & most importantly the batter on the 🐠 was crisp & not at all soggy & plenty of crisp french fries 🍟there too. She swapped her lovely mushy peas for my wee tub of peas - the tarter sause tasted brilliant & it's not to be missed. We could only eat about 1/2 of our non doey kinafa warm scone that came with a small tub of cream & jam 'cos we were both pretty full up & wanted to eat the lovely crisp pastry of our 🍓 tart & at least you taste the coffee ☕ So pay them a visit - it may be a wee bit dark in there for some but the place is lovely inside & despite all that the staff r really very nice & pleasant.”

  “Really good food, friendly staff, dog friendly. Clean, warm atmosphere. We,also stayed in the hotel next door, room very big, huge bed, large bathroom, very quite considering it backs onto the motorway. Breakfast good choice, also vegetarian, again friendly staff.”

  “We found Cook's on a visit to the Kelpies - what a find! We were in time for their weekday lunch time menu, extremely good value for excellent quality food. The haggis starter is to die for! Good size portions too. The waitress was friendly and efficient without being overbearing. Dogs are allowed too, our Red Setter was welcomed. I'd definitely come back here if ever in the area, it's well deserving of 5 stars.”

  “Stopped by after our visit to The Kelpies; the place was still quiet when we arrived but started getting busier around lunchtime. I had the fish and chips, which were tasty, and enjoyed a bowl of olives as an appetizer. Overall, a pleasant experience and worth a try if you’re in the area.”

  “Came to Cooks bar for dinner for the first time. Pre booking was easy and an ample amount of parking available. Arriving I saw a rustic character building with a seasoning of modern touches. Upgraded well however the decor was not to my taste. I felt its decor was disconnected from its historic stature but very clean, warm and welcoming. The menu was vast, offering a nice selection however the steak (price per gram) did not specify where it came from but the black pudding, fish, prawn etc all specified where it came from. I didn't agree with charging extra for sauce that traditionally comes with that dish either. I ordered the fish which was delicious, but again I feel it was lacking it's value for money. Staff friendly and attentive but did need to be reminded about missing items which was strange as it was not busy. I would recommend it if you are looking for a nice meal out or a change from a pub meal.”

  “We had Christmas Day lunch here - party of 4. It was faultless. The food was delicious and well cooked, the staff were charming, efficient and friendly and the atmosphere was festive. Santa even made an appearance. It couldn't have been better - well done to everyone involved.”

  “This has been on the list of places to try for a while! We went for dinner early on a Saturday evening. Food was scrumptious and the staff were friendly and polite. Our food arrived promptly. Would definitely recommend 👌”

  “Cosy place, very nice staff and delicious food. The tortellini were so good with a very generous portion, the BBQ burguer was juicy and the sweet potato fries crunchy. Even that we were so full after the truffle & parmesan fries and the mains, we ordered a sticky toffee pudding and... oh my god! So tasty and the vainilla ice cream fits perfect. For drinks, we ordered a Bulmer's cider and a Watermelon daiquiri and we just pay for the whole dinner £36. Very convenient!”
