    We went to this restaurant with high expectations, however the whole experience was rushed . The starters of onion rings and haggis spring roles where passable but they came out after just placing out order which seemed that they were pre-prepared ? Then I had shoulder blade (which was very tasty,) My partner had roasted chicken with mash - this was passable - the mash potatoes was very dry and horrible it came with a mushroom sauce which he didn’t like. Then we were asked to move as our table was booked (we were there for a hour and 10 mins!) do we decided to have the bill and go - at the bottom of the bill was a discretionary 10% surcharge… which I refused to pay - so check your bill and if happy then pay the 10% otherwise refuse .

    We really enjoyed our dinner at Whiski Rooms. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The space was nicely decorated with nice music (not techno beat like we heard in other places!) and the service was friendly and attentive. Get the sticky toffee pudding!

    We were looking forward to trying this restaurant based on a local recommendation. I ordered the fish and chips, my husband got the hamburger. Unfortunately, this was our least favorite fish and chips of our entire trip. Definitely a disappointment given that this was our last night in Scotland.

    I had made a 'special occasion' booking, but there was no mention of that. We were assigned a table close to the noisy coffee machine, when there was a lovely table at the window which was then assigned to a young family who arrived a few minutes after us. Our pre-dinner drinks were slow to arrive, but service after that was good. My fish and chips main course was disappointing as the fish was dry. The others in the group enjoyed what they had - haggis, steak pie and lamb.

    The Whiski Room is a true gem. The staff goes out of their way to provide an experience and the best of their menu offerings. In addition, our whiski tasting experience is beyond descriptions. Stephen provided history and five drams which gave the us the ability to learn how to enjoy scotch/whiski in a manner that is most satisfying. We highly recommend the food and the additional fee for the formal tasting. You will not regret the experience.
