Perfect stop. Near the botanical garden. The place is very warm and comfortable. Very nice and quiet. The fireplace part is beautiful. The waitress was super friendly. We had some beers and a snack.

Not bad, not great either. Their legendary steak pie isn 't something to write home about. The gravy was strong in taste, which I liked, but the meat as well as the lid were dry.

read moreThe Orchard offers a mixed bag of reviews, with some visitors satisfied with the food and friendly service, while others found the dishes lacking in quality. The legendary steak pie received mixed reactions, with some praising the tender meat and tasty gravy while others found it dry. Chips seemed to be a common theme with some enjoying them while others felt they were tasteless and soggy. The Sunday roast and burgers seem to be the standout dishes, with the lamb and beef roast receiving high praise. Overall, The Orchard seems to be a hit or miss depending on individual experiences.
amazing service! I still think of the wonderful bark cheek and mae meal. the sticky toe was dessert to die. and the deep-fried haggis is simply vulnerable. high...
