Customer Review Summary

Diners most often single out the sea bass, which one reviewer found perfectly cooked and another enjoyed for its seasoning sauce as the fish of the day. Close behind are the chef's meat pie of the day and the fish and chips, both called delicious, while others mention the Sunday roast, a beef tart with crispy fries, chicken kebabs and Korean bbq chicken. Egg Benedict and seafood tagliatelle appear at lunch. Reviewers repeatedly describe the staff as friendly, and several say the owner chats with tables and makes sure everyone is having a good time. The atmosphere is called lovely and relaxed, with a family feel, and one reviewer appreciates that dogs are welcome. Portions are described as great for the price. The one lukewarm note comes from a lunch visitor who found the food about average and the place nothing fancy, though they still had a lovely experience.

“I recently had dinner at Saint and Scholars in Didsbury with my daughter and friends, it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, beautifully presented, and a cozy place. We tried a few different dishes. The beef tart came with crispy fries, chicken kebabs and Korean bbq chicken. All are delicious! The staff were friendly and the relaxed atmosphere made it a perfect spot for a casual evening out. Saint and Scholars is definitely worth a visit and I definitely will come again!”

“Love the dining experience here! The owner is adorable and interacts with guests just like a friendly neighbor 😆 We ordered Caesar salad and the fish of the day, and we really enjoyed the seasoning sauce with the sea bass! Paired with an IPA beer, it made for a delightful Saturday.”

“Walked in about 12ish lunch time, narrow entrance but spacious room inside. Nothing fancy but friendly staff. We had egg Benedict and Seafood Tagliatelle with some drinks, very reasonable price in this location. Food was about average. It’s not a posh pub but we had lovely experience here!”
