  “Spent the day in St. Andrew and stopped in here for lunch. Had Howard as our server who was very helpful with menu suggestions and how to best get back to the train station. Great meal and excellent service!”

  “You wouldn't expect this beautiful restaurant is hidden inside the middle of St. Andrews. They have plenty of whiskey options and various flights from the different regions of Scotland. Their food was also delicious. They have plenty of options to choose from including traditional Scottish meals. My wife and I both go the Shepherds Pie and we loved it!”

  “Our first visit to Forgans. We had fish and chips for lunch , it was nice but ive had better. They dont advertise but they do offer 20% NHS and bluelight discount, always a bonus. I went with my sister , we decided to split the bill , when server came over our bill was £48 ,told her we are going halves,server asked me what's half of £48 , i thought she was joking but was deadly serious. I did ask was she joking she said no , i apologised if I made her feel embarrassed.”

  “Came here for a family lunch today, and everything was absolutely spot on. The food was delicious and came out in a timely manner, the cocktails were amazing, and we had consistently good service throughout the whole meal, which brings me to Sally. Sally was an absolute pleasure to have serving us! Her banter is bloody great! We had so many laughs with her, nothing was too much for her, and she absolutely made our afternoon! Couldn't have asked for a better experience!”

  “Had the most excellent experience at forgans. The atmosphere was excellent, the food was nice. We didn’t book (I would recommend) but they managed to find us a table. The waiter James I, was an absolute pleasure. Would come back just for him! He helped us get our table, walked us through the menu and as you see in the picture, he realised it was an important date and had all of our dishes personalised. He was an absolute gem! Thank you James!!”

  “Maybe I just don't like Scottish food. Dishes were cooked with fresh ingredients but the pork fillet was a bit tough and the chicken was dry with not a ton of flavor. Fish and chips were fantastic. Skink app was interesting. Service was pleasant and accommodating. I liked the book on scotch and many choices available and can see how a large group would benefit from going here. Great atmosphere setting. Would go back for drinks and slightly lower expectations for the food”

  “Our 7 person group has reservations for Forgan’s and we were promptly seated in one of the back rooms. There were a few other parties present so the room was loud but had interesting decorations with mail carrier bags and newspaper articles (someone clearly spent a lot of time on decorations, especially with the flowers at the front). Our waiter was attentive throughout the meal and I ordered the following: -fish and chips (4/5): beautifully cooked w crispy batter and glistening fish but they forgot that final coating of salt that ties the whole meal together. I added salt and it definitely elevated the dish but this is a pretty significant oversight so I’m rating the dish based on what was presented to me. The chips were thick, crispy and well seasoned and the tartare sauce was tasty and peas interesting and good. Overall, solid fish and chips but I’m hopeful I can find better in the UK. -highland sling (4.25/5) : a refreshing and fruity raspberry drink but nothing memorable restaurant. -sticky toffee pudding (3/5): as soon as the dish came out, I knew it was dry. ‘Sticky’ is literally in the description and this pudding was not that. The flavor was decent but this was a disappointing end to the meal. Overall, Forgan’s has a Beautiful walkway entrance with flowers and plants, great service and serves decent food.”

  “We had the most spectacular lunch here catching up with old friends. Howard was our host and he made the experience so much more fun. He was full of jokes and shared his knowledge of Scottish history and whiskeys with us as well. The food was piping hot and fresh with plenty of flavor to go around. The leek bread was something out of your dreams - so delicious! I had the vegan burger which was not lacking in character. I'd love to find myself back in this part of the world again. Thank you, Howard!”

  “Forgan’s is a popular town centre restaurant with an airy, contemporary interior with an industrial vibe. Entry to the restaurant is up an enclosed corridor with lots of plants and quirky bits and bobs. This leads to the restaurant entrance. Service was friendly and welcoming, we tried the Cullen Skink which was more watery compared with others we tried and was lacking in fish and flavour, definitely our least favourite during our trip. The mussels were large and juicy however the fries that came with the dish were unbearably salty for me and rendered them inedible. Thought the prices were a little on the high side.”

  “Great find behind Mitchell’s flowers and good lunch deal - the choice was good and can definitely recommend the Cullen skink soup - super tasty with good amount of fish - very hearty! Then we had the chicken with onions, fennel and bacon and huge fondant style potato and delicious gravy and the seabass with nduja cassoulet and sauce vierge - fantastic! Finally it was two apple / berry crumbles and ginger ice cream - absolutely delicious and perfect end to the meal - definitely recommended and great value at £30 for 3 courses.”
