Absolutley superb the food & service was second to none. We booked at short notice for our wedding anniversary & we were not disappointed. Thank you Adam & Claire we will return!
We don't eat out very often but the Brandysnap is our go-to for a special occasion. Our latest visit was a reminder why we return. I can't eat any dish with onions but Claire and Adam offer me a wide range of dishes they can prepare without them and I order my meal in advance to make life easier. We took some friends there a few days ago and we all agreed that we had been treated like royalty and well-fed. Everyone marvelled at the double-baked cheese and chive soufle and I will see if I can negotiate one without chives ahead of my next visit as I feel like I should try that. Because the restaurant is small, just two rooms with a bar in the middle it is almost like dining at home. In fact we have on occasion had the exclusive use of the back room .Just like throwing a dinner party without any cooking or washing up. We will return in a few weeks and look forward to it.
Well, what can we say? A little bit of heaven tucked into a small town. The welcome was so friendly and the food perfect. The Soufflé was delightful as was the steak, pork and goats cheese starter. We couldn’t fault it at all. I take my hat off to the owners, a little gem. Thank you so much.
What a fantastic place. The food was amazing. The cheese soufflé is a must and if you like steak just wow....the best steak I’ve ever had. The staff were amazing, very friendly and just so accommodating. We got engaged in the restaurant and they went out of there way to make it special. Thank you so much we will definitely be returning.
Brandysnaps Bistro keeps on delivering the warmest welcome with friendly and impeccable service, and the most delicious food. Our starters of pear with walnut and roquefort salad ,followed by pheasant with mushroom and tarragon, and pork with ginger and apricot had subtlety of flavours and faultless cooking-perfection on a plate.Home made icecreams and prune and almond tart rounded off a fantastic meal. There is nothing negative to say about this gem of a restaurant.
This place is great good wine and spirits we had lovely time the staff were excellent and we sampled some Red Wine we had snack and they gave Brandy snap to try great yes all come along you will not be disappointed
We visited here on our anniversary purely by accident! (We'd left it too late in the day to book a nice place to eat and after ringing round several restaurants that were fully booked, we came across the brandysnap who had just had a table for two cancel!) The decor is simple and probably about 8-10 tables in total. You are definitely given their attention and each meal is made to order. Nothing is rushed and it's a very laid back atmosphere. When we arrived, we were shown to a small seating area near the bar, were given the days menu and specials and offered drinks. They dont rush you and allow you to take your time choosing. Shortly after ordering, you are taken to your table along with a few freshly baked dinner rolls and butter. What can I say about the food? Amazing. Everything tastes so fresh! Everything is homemade and because there are so few tables, all meals can be give attention to detail. (If you get a chance, the cheese and chive souffle is to die for!) All their icecream is made there using their own hens eggs, along with their signature brandy snap baskets... This was a proper foodie experience. Do not expect "fast food". The wait for freshly made dishes is part of the experience and is so so worth it! You will not be disappointed....(As a side note, even if you haven't got room for it, dont leave without trying the prune and armagnac icecream ;)
We were there last night with friends from the village. The greeting,service and the food were 5star. We enjoyed cod, lamb,duck,salmon and pork belly ,all were perfect. We are from America and will visit again on our next visit.
Dined here last night and from start to finish the food and service was excellent. Homemade brandy snaps and ice creams delicious. Pear, apple and pecan crumble a joy! Highly recommend.
Amazing food and service. We had twice baked cheese souffle, fish cake, lamb, stuffed pork and raspberry roulade. Everything very tasty and well presented. The service was second to none. Highly recommended.
we are never ever disappointed here , we are always made to feel special , the food is to die for ( try the twice baked souffle ! ) , and the house wine is excellent , you will not regret your visit.
Perfect food, extremely friendly service from Adem and a cosy setting. It was easy to see why booking is essential. We were already full but just had to have one of the scrummy home made puddings. A very good decision!
This was our first visit but it definitely won't be the last, the restaurant came highly by several friends and now we understand why. A lovely warm welcome and excellent service and the food was sublime, cannot remember when we last had such beautiful food locally, it made the journer through the snow at the start of February worth while. What can we recommend, everything! Just book, go and enjoy
What can we say, anyone who does not try the Brandysnap Bistro are missing out on a real gem. The food is the best we have ever had/the service and the welcoming second to none and the drinks are excellent measures, what more could anyone ask for and all at an excellent cost.

We go every year, I wish it was nearer home as we would be there every week. We have eaten in many restaurants but never had the service and the consistent food quality as this lovely place. Adam and Claire should be extremely proud of there Bistro. Looking forward to our next visit x x x
This bistro is fantastic. The food is amazing thanks to Claire and Adam is superb front of house. It covers vegetarians and others dietary needs. The only negative... it is so fab you must book. Who can complain at that?
We have dined here with family members aged 19 to 80+ on several occasions and have never been less than completely satisfied with the food, service and ambience. We just keep coming back and recommending Brandy Snap to all of our friends. The menu is inventive and satisfying and strikes a great balance between old favourites and new and exciting tastes. The food is fresh and as local as it is possible to get. My wife is a Coeliac and is always given a wide choice from the menu with any adjustments to suit her requirements. Adam handles the front of house and is an outstanding host with his knowledge of food, local activities and exciting stories of Scotland. I would highly recommend that you give it a try but be warned you will keep coming back!
Had dinner for 2 on our recent holiday. Food was very good, being irish would have like more potatoes, 1 baby wasn't quite enough, that said would recomend
Great food, lovely service and a lovely, atmosphere. Wha5 more to say about a small restaurant in a small town. Highly recommended.

Booked last minute on Saturday, shocked we actually got a table because I know from previous tries it gets full very quickly! Lovely meal and very friendly service, fillet steak cut like butter, my partner enjoyed his goats cheese starter! To top it off, the puddings were fantastic, that creme brûlée was delicious and so was the homemade ice cream!! Definitely returning very soon
