"when we arrived at 18:45, it was calm and we sat immediately. the server was friendly and attentive. the music was calm, as others have mentioned, but personally we appreciate that we hear each other. the restaurant began to fill later and we were so impressed by the server as it was clearly busy and she seemed to manage everything alone, but she has constantly checked on us and always completely quiet and in control. the tables are very spaced apart, which is not only more codified safe, but we also feel as if we had something private sphere and were not collapsed. After we read other reviews, we were ready for a waiting period and made sure that we did not starve so that we had no problems that our drinks were brought very fast and I can not say that I had a special waiting for the meal that I had been affected by some reviews. it was a birthday meal and we spent 2 hours eating with our time and talking we found the atmosphere very comfortable and were not in a hurry, but maybe had other problems when they were very hungry! we shared a plate, so for £10 a head we were totally happy. I thought they were very generous with the sizes of cuts compared to other sushi we had, and appreciate the presentation. we were a little nervous about our booking after we had read some of the negative reviews, but did not find any of these problems themselves. did not think it was dirty, enjoyed the ambiente, eating was pleasant, service was excellent, and worth for money smart seemed completely normal for cooking made sushi. the decor was quirky, but we thought it was funny and the garden was absolutely stunning. one of the more relaxed culinary experiences I had post-covid and we will definitely be back!"

Cafés • Kebab • Seafood • Fast Food


"I had a lovely meal at Kingsway farm in Dundee last weekend. The carvery was delicious and generous, with a variety of meats and vegetables to choose from. The price was very reasonable for the quality and quantity of food. The customer service was excellent, with attentive and friendly staff who made us feel welcome and valued. The manager also came to our table to ask about our experience and to thank us for choosing their restaurant. The only downside was that the decor was a bit outdated and could use some renovation. However, this did not affect the overall enjoyment of our meal. I would definitely recommend Kingsway farm to anyone looking for a good carvery in Dundee. At time of writing and on weekend prices in total I spent £8.69 for the small Carvery and £3.49 for a two litre drink. All in all a fake price. Kingsway Farm also halves a great selection of ice creams that can be seen from the bar area and also a great selection of cakes absolutely fantastic really enjoy the cakes even though I didn't have one on this occasion I have done in the past. They also have a play area for kids and families. Can be busy at times due to popularity. You can book, but I've always just turned up as a party of 2 a few times. Easier enough to get a table and any wait I've ever had is within about 10-15 mind maximum. People are coming and going all the time. You shouldn't have a problem. You can book online if necessary."

"I would say having been coming to the Pancake Place over the last 10 years, once every other month, it has sadly went very badly down hill. My wife and I visited with our 12 year old daughter. On arrival we were seated quickly and our drinks order taken within a few minutes. We received our drinks 2 diet pepsi which were not fizzy (clearly issue with draft) and a smoothie which was very tasty and refreshing. There were maybe about 4 or 5 tables occupied, so for a lunchtime I thought why is it so quet . Anyway, my wife and daughter both ordered the macaroni and I ordered the fish and chips. We received our food within about 5 6 mins which made me question that alot of the food must have just been simply reheated! The macaroni was insipid and lacked seasoning and my fish was about half the size of the normal portion I was used to getting. I questioned this with the server and he went to the kitchen only to return to advise that they can 't control the size of the portions they receive from their supplier!? The fish was definitely small enough to be a child 's portion. I requested why don 't they just give me an extra portion of the fish to which he replied. Sorry can 't do that but we can remove the meal from your bill . They did ask if I would like an alternative from the menu but by this point my wife and daughter had already eaten half of their meal so I wasn 't willing to make them wait any longer. In addition to this we were not given any cutlery until after we were served our food. Both my wife and daughter said they did not enjoy their food but it was edible. I returned my plate to the kitchen and received a credit off the bill. Sorry but £12 for what was basically a kids portion of fish, a handful of chips and a rotten looking side salad, it is very overpriced for what you get. None of us will be returning here. Quite sad really given it was always such a friendly, busy and quality cafe. Owners please do better!"
