Great For Food + History - Very nice experience if you're looking for Scottish food with its history explained. Learned a good bit even though I've been on other Scottish tours. Restaurant was classy and you definitely get enough alcohol with the meals - each pairing was fun.

The food is so so good!!! - I saw this tour on trip advisor and was intrigued by the pictures of the food. This ended up being more like a sit down dinner and not a walking tour. I was so relieved because for us it was chilly outside. One dish was better than the next and Maya our guide was so sweet and informative. She really made it fun. I told her the one thing I was nervous to try was the Haggis and she added a personal story of her own experience that made me feel confident enough to try it. I'm so happy I did because it was very good. I can't express enough how great the food and company were. It really was one of my favorite parts of the trip! I guess my only feedback would be that it was pretty loud where we were sitting so it made it difficult to hear Maya. Still worthy of a 5 star rating!!!

A feast of Scottish flavours and stories - One of the best dining experiences I’ve ever experienced, a sensory journey through the history of food in Scotland, tasting traditional dishes and drinks while telling me about the legends, techniques and secrets that have shaped its culinary culture.

Great experience with an awesome guide! - What an awesome time! 1 restaurant with an awesome selection of great food but the biggest highlight was our tour guide, Heather. An absolute pleasure. She and my wife got along famously, talking about history, music and everything in between. Highly recommend her!
