Lunch with friends. Not a special occasion but always a treat at Cronies! We opted for the high tea, Willie having quite the sweet tooth. He went for the steak pie with saute potatoes and pronounced it grand, Julia was guided to the smoked cheese macaroni and though not usually a big pasta fan was very impressed, (me too, I had it last time). Myself chose the battered haddock and chunky chips and both were excellent. Your staff are so cheerful (dare I say chirpy?) and welcoming, they nip in and out and are never intrusive. The restaurant has warmth and an old world charm so rare nowadays, and harks back to an age of civility and service that is quite evocative. Don't change a thing!

What a fantastic experience in the Cronies restaurant. The night started with drinks in the bar and the staff were very welcoming and friendly. We were seated at our table that the staff had decorated for a birthday celebration, it was lovely. The staff couldn’t be more helpful and the food was lovely, tasted great and beautifully presented. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the restaurant for a fantastic meal and will certainly return.

We very much enjoyed our lunch (first return visit since before lockdown). The food was cooked and presented to a high standard, portion sizes not too big for senior citizens - something we appreciated as we don't like wasting food! Staff very attentive, friendly, helpful and professional. I'm already looking forward to our next visit !

Have enjoyed quite a few relaxing lunches here. Have never felt rushed which is nice. Most recently enjoyed a very nice lunch during the busy "Bloody Scotland" event. Food was very good as was the service. Most enjoyable.
