Each time we visit Newtonmore and Kingussie, we visit The Glen at least once - we've never struggled to get a table, without booking.It's not fine dining, and doesn't remotely claim to be, but the food's great - unpretentious British 'pub' fare, with a few interesting local variants, including venison. Vegetarians plainly aren't just an afterthought - try the veggie haggis.Haddock and chips might seem an unexciting choice, but you'll reliably get a larger fish than anywhere else!We'll be back....

My family, including my 7 year old grandson, went here for dinner on Saturday 27th July 2019. We were staying at Loch Insh and arrived around 6.30pm. We weren't sure whether to go to Aviemore or Kingussie. Oh how I wish we'd turned right to Aviemore....We arrived in this pub and waited to be seated by a lovely young girl. She told us that the kitchen weren't taking anymore orders for 30 minutes as there was "only one chef". We decided to wait it out rather than look elsewhere at that time of night, especially as we were unfamiliar with the area. The young lady took our drinks order. There was heavy rock music playing (loudly) which turned out to be the jukebox. Fair enough. My grandson asked if he could choose some music. Unfortunately there was a drunk man hanging over the jukebox so we couldn't get to it. Another man witnessed it and asked the drunk man to move. My grandson was a bit scared so we quickly pressed anything and rushed back to our table through the back. Being a 50 year old woman, this didn't bother ME too much, folk get drunk in pubs right?? Our order was eventually taken - quicker than the 30 minutes originally stated so we were happy at that. 2 orders were for macaroni, 1 for a beef burger and 1 children's chicken goujons. The meals arrived within 15 minutes of ordering. My macaroni was presented to me and I immediately noticed it had the consistency of soup. And it was green and white! I began eating it and noticed that the green was a herb which didn't go with the dish. I was informed that it was parsley, a LOT of parsley. Any chef knows that a woody herb like parsley shouldn't be used in macaroni, surely right? The beef burger was overdone. I returned my macaroni, my sister ate hers as she was so hungry. My grandson thoroughly enjoyed his chicken. My other sister ate some half her meal. My sisters stood at the bar to pay the bill. I removed my grandson as there were so many drunk men in the bar by this point. The till roll ran out in the till. The 2 very young waitresses didn't know how to sort it. They finally called the CHEF through to do it. That process took 14 minutes. My sister explained that one meal was sent back as it was inedible due to the parsley being at odds with the actual dish. The chef refused to remove it from the bill. My sister, being a publican herself for many years, advised him that this is standard practice, good customer service. He still refused to remove it or even offer a discount. At that my sisters walked out, putting the whole thing down to experience. When we spoke to one of the staff at our accommodation about it she advised us that it's just a local pub where local folk go, not tourists. She stated that when guests ask where they can eat out they ALWAYS say Aviemore and tell people NOT to go to Kingussie!! Too late for us. On another note, I always carry antibacterial wipes in my bag. We had made a bit of a mess with salt in the table. I wiped it off - and the wipe was BLACK! The table was filthy! I am not angry. This is just an honest review of my own experience. I gain nothing by leaving a rotten review. I am NOT a complained by nature. I just want to warn off any other tourists. I'll leave by saying this - whoever is replying to other folks' reviews about this place needs a lot of training in customer care! You don't just argue with reviewers because you don't like their review! Thank you for reading.Hi, we know you well and were awaiting this review. You entered the premises and were seated at a recently wiped table as it had just been turned over from a previous 4 sat there. You ordered your food and the two macaroni cheese meals were sent out and neither were returned even after our waitresses both asked if everything was okay with the meal this was option one to return the meal and have it removed from the tab. Then when clearing the plates waitresses again asked if everything was okay and again no issues were bought to us. Then when it came to the bill being paid issues arose. Preference issues. No hospitality or food establishment removes a charge for a meal that at the last moment is stated that you didnât enjoy. Furthermore you did not ask what the herbs were, as it is Mixed herbs which many top chefs add to a cheese sauce and no attempts were made to talk to the chef. We are happy to accept that there was a longer than normal wait and that the food may not have been to your liking and for that we apologise however the exaggerations are outstanding just because you didnât receive a free meal.Regards âthe one chefâ

Nice meal here . Food was good but a little basic. A good choice of dishes. Service excellent and we would visit again.
