Decor here is lovely. They've done really well. The dining room and bathrooms were spotless - very impressed. One bugbear my sons potatoes seemed to be Smash, they didn't taste like real potatoes nor did they have the texture of real potatoes. The sausages and gravy were lovely. Sausages did taste fresh and not like frozen. I enjoyed the steak pie, meat was melt in the mouth. My hubby had a burger and didn't complain once (this is high praise from my hubby who is very hard to please when eating out)I had been worried as it was empty when we arrived although it seemed we were just a little early for our evening meal. It was filling up when we left. We enjoyed our food and the service was great. I was gutted my son took a tantrum so we chose to leave before dessert. Staff were actually great and didn't seem phased by my little ones mood swing, they even brought him over some pencils and paper. We will definitely be back, there are a few other items on the menu I really want to try. May even talk the ladies into booking a table for our next day out

Wandered down the hill from our AirBnB in Kirkcaldy to enjoy the #1 restaurant - and we weren't disappointed! Saturday night (without a reservation), we were seated immediately. We shared a light bruschetta (with rosemary and tasty goats cheese) to start. For mains D opted for the catch of the day (she's serious about her fish!), I know there was monkfish in it! She loved it! I chose the chicken breast (intrigued by the caramelised onion and whiskey sauce and crumbled haggis additions) - it was delish! To finish? We shared an indulgent salted caramel chocolate hotpot. Service came with a smile and a our waitress was delightful (Sorry I didn't catch her name, but it was her last night before heading off to art school in Dundee). Thoroughly recommend The Waterfront!

I mean this as a compliment, so don't you be taking umbrage! The Village Inn has all of the best of a small restaurant that you'd find in England-and I've been to quite a few, with my family. Very cosy, with a welcoming atmosphere and tables filled with families, enjoying its very good menu. Excellent service. I thoroughly recommend it- and the warm Scottish extras gave it the added edge! Long may Pubs like these continue to serve their communities..

Enjoyed a family lunch at the Dining Room today. Much nicer inside than it looks outside. The lunch menu was such good value for delicious food beautifully presented and just right portion sizes. We were very impressed and will definitely go back. Highly recommended.

Nothing against staff individually, but there was not enough of them and they were so so poorly trained and had no table manners. The food was either over or undercooked, my salmon was so dry, otherwise would have been lovely. Deserts were to die for though, highly recommend the sticky toffee pudding, if itâs still on special!

Lacking in atmosphere the food was nice enough not outstanding. Donât like paper napkins and no table covers just a personal thing but not for me. We wish we had booked the other restaurant, but it didnât seem clear online where to get bar snacks drinks etc, one member of staff sent us down to the bistro for an afternoon snack as we couldnât check in until 2 only to be told we had to go to the âlounge areaâ we only wanted something light as we had dinner at 7 so back upstairs it was. All a bit confusing Staff were lovely though
