Some friends and I had dinner together here recently. Perfect meeting point for us at this cosy bar. We had a range of dishes between us such as Chicken Enchilada, Chicken Supreme (their version) and Nachos as a main. Soooo good, each dish was super tasty! Friendly service and great prices, we will be back again.

What a delightful and delicious first dinner in Scotland! We ordered mussels in tomato broth, quail, lamb, steak, and fish and chips and it was all cooked to perfection and creatively plated. The service was friendly and knowledgeable, prompt and careful. The atmosphere is relaxed, and everyone who works there interacted in a positive and welcoming manner. The neighborhood is cute, views are solid, and we went for a walk after to see what else this charming town had to offer. Highly recommend every aspect of this place. Thanks for making our first evening in Scotland a memorable one!

Reviewed By SandandChas

The coffee, soup and scones in Fresh, Greenock Oak Mall are good. The decor is pleasant, tables are cleaned regularly and the staff are friendly and efficient. Lots of customers seemed to be opting for the soup and sandwich deal or Mac & Cheese. These all looked nice and all the recipients seemed happy with their choices. Obviously it’s a busy place between 12-2 given the Council offices next door, but staff seem well organised and able to cope.

Reviewed By beni320

Came here today for my sons birthday 25th, the service is good and the staff ok. I've been here before a few times but not reviewed as my opinion differs from my wife's.... Today we had a few different dishes, my son had the lentil soup to start, which to be fair was exactly what it said in the menu....but smelled funny, unpleasant funny and tasted like salt and pepper had gone on holiday...bland was not undescriptive enough. My wife and I shared the charcuterie....which was ok, although the olive oil/balsamic required the power of a 1.1gigawatt blender to attract the balsamic to the bread when dipped. Next the mains, my wifes pork loin looked amazing but was dryer than an arabs dap, (a dap is a sandal) my son had the macaroni cheese with pancetta....well where do I start...it looked good, it smelt good, it delivered bland pasta with crispy bacon (not panchetta), salt and pepper were still missing. I had the monkfish/prawn jerk kebab with mango and rice. The fish smelt off but I persevered and was ok, the mango was freezing and looked older than my mother...the rice clung to itself like a recovering drug addict...all sweaty and bland, definitely miss the aforementioned salt and pepper. Desert was not attempted. After the initial attentiveness off the staff it seemed a bit mission impossible to get them to provide much service thereafter, my wife called the restaurant we were in just to order the bill from our table.....This place used to be quite good but seems to be declining, which is a shame.

Super busy place especially on a nice day, weekends or during the holidays. Fantastic deli and shop area. Opted for a late brunch from the menu. Considering all of the wonderful food in the shop I was expecting something much better. Bacon was super salty and very fatty, sausage was okay and black pudding tasted very odd almost offputting. Will try again for lunch maybe breakfasts aren't their forte ?Thank you so much for coming to Ardardan, and for taking the time to write about your experience of your visit. We are always delighted to hear from visitors, and your feedback is really helpful and appreciated. Food is a great passion of ours and we are delighted that you saw this coming through in the range of products we have in our farm shop. In our tearoom we pride ourselves on providing simple but super tasty food using the best ingredients we can, and served by great and friendly people. We can't apologise enough that you didn't love the breakfast that you had, and we must and will take this on board and make sure we keep our standards up and as consistent as we can. We really hope that you do decide to pop in again to try other bits and bobs from our freshly prepared homemade menu and that you thoroughly enjoy them if you do. Thank you again for coming, The Montys & Team at Ardardan.

Reviewed By KirdyG1

I have eaten at this carvery/restaurant multiple times over the time it has been open.I visited yesterday mid afternoon for a leisurely lunch. The decor and cleanliness are good as are most of the waiting staff.The Carvery section had 3 roasts available Turkey , Gammon and roast Beef.The Turkey was pleasant and the Carvery chef was pleasant. The roast beef was tough tasteless and shocking really. The Veg selection was good generally except for the boiled potatoes these were either undercooked or waterlogged basically inedible. This has been a gradual decline from good quality to poor a real shame. The price is reasonable but the quality of beef is not acceptable. Soft drinks are expensive but you do get free refills. Deserts like the beef have really slipped in quality.Sadly I will be hard put to spend my money here in the future.Hi there, Thank you for your feedback. I am sorry to hear the beef and potatoes were not to your liking, and will pass on comments to my hierarchy. I do hope we see you again.Team WW

I went to Largs with my husband, granddaughter & great niece. Before going to the swing park we came in here for our lunch. As it was the holiday weekend & the weather was lovely the place was really busy. We eventually managed to get a seat inside. This is the first time we've been here. There menu is really good with lots of different things to pick from. Our meal was lovely, even though they were really busy the service was good. It's on the sea front so the view is great. We will definitely go back hereThank you Maryann for your kind comments. It can be difficult to maintain service when things are really busy so we appreciate your patience, understanding and kindness in taking the time to comment. I’m delighted that you enjoyed our food and the choices available. we are currently looking at revamping the menu to keep it fresh and seasonal with a few extra winter warmers on the way. I hope we will see you again next time you are in Largs. Very best wishes, Jim.
