Im sure the chilli recipe in the Phoenix has changed. The old chilli burgers aint what they used to be (still decent though). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shandon Par Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Is this purely related to Dun6ee or can eateries in other places be included? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pup part of the Nether Abbey Hotel in North Berwick is worth a visit. Called the Fly Half. Has one of those huge wallpaper map things of the East Lothian coast on one wall, outside space.

Big Gus Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 in dundee i like the trades bar the phoenix invergowrie inn birkie inn and the anchor in the ferry. like the jahangir as well on the odd occasion. have i missed any decent places out? where do you like to go?I actually prefer The Bank Bar over the road if it's "grub and pub". Think the food is consistently great in there and its a well run wee place.The Anchor is a great shout in the ferry but you're spoiled for choice down there. Fort also good and the Tapas place (Soli Sombre?) has been good since the Ferry Inn days.Phoenix is still king on the West End but I find it can be a bit busy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jarballs Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 Will lump in for Inverness:Saffron in Cradlehall near Culloden is absolutely the best curry in the city and the country, hands down. Bring Your Own Booze if you want to sit in too. Cinnamon is second, sadly the Rajah's best days are long behind them.The Dores Inn right on the banks of Loch Ness is still an amazing setting, however since the original owners sold up for - an alleged but entirely believable - £1m a few years ago the reputation has gone downhill. Not just for the food, some stories of very unsavoury attitudes towards customers have been reported and indeed a good few confirmed.If you fancy Italian, Little Italy on Stephen's Brae in the city centre is pretty much your only option but a very good one. Cosy, homely, great for lunch and years ago the owner/chef used to come out and sing 'happy birthday' - when the occasion merited it of course, not just randomly. Haven't seen him for ages but would still recommend.Speaking of venues which never disappoint, Cafè One beside the castle has been a cracking scran for over two decades, you really can't go wrong there.Have only been to the Mustard Seed once for an afternoon work do this year, overlooks the River Ness and specialises in seafood apparently - didn't try any but had an excellent meal all the same.Lastly but not leastly, if you want good value, tasty pub grub in a family-friendly environment then my local at the Fluke is the place to go. On the way into town just past the hospital, often has 2-for-1 and kids eat free deals on, a few screens for the football too but not rowdy.Unfortunately, most of the stuff in the actual city centre is either pretty average or the usual pub chain pish. Been away for a couple of months so happy to be corrected. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it just feels like not going out to go for tea so close to home. Ill give it a bash. I havent been to the post house, the chocolatier or the model car shop either.

TheScarf Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The Fluke in Inverness is great for everything IMO: taking your other half for a meal, having 16 pints with the #boeyz or laughing like fuck at everyone when there's an Old Firm on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im providing f**k all to the local economy The eggs Benedict in the post house are pretty good and the model shop is the best place in the Dundee area for a die cast Stuka. I had a chili dog in the Pheonix today. It's not as good as it used to be but still above average. Best burgers in Dundee are from The Shack up in the Hilltoon/Dens Road area. Other recommendations for Dundee would be The Tailend, The Bach, Agacan and Mas. Sam's Chop House in Manchester is my favourite restaurant in the UK. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Things have changed a lot since then I imagine but good to hear The Fluke hasn’t changed much. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G's is still there but it closed in 2016. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jumbo Muir Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 The Ettrick in Old Kilpatrick for beer followed by a quick jaunt in a taxi to the The Bombay Grill in Hardgate is my routine win or lose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
