The Bon Vivant

Wonderful experience. Staff and service fantastic and would definitely come back to spend an afternoon just drinking in a very laid back atmosphere. Wonderful find. Shame we have to leave to go shopping.

From the started, main course, desert and also the cocktail everything was delightful!! The waitress were very kind, very good attention. The place is very cozy, i love everything about this place I totally recommend it. I am not easily surprised and this time every dish surprised me in a good way.

Realised I had been to the same place before albeit under a different name. Dark and cozy, French style restaurant. Had a lovely selection of Festive bites to start followed by a succulent cod fillet which flaked effortlessly. An impressive cocktail list was perused over and had a Freezer Martini. A little pricey but well worth it.

Fantastic little pub on Thistle Street. It's a wee hidden gem. We popped in for a drink and stayed for 3 hours. The staff are first class and so friendly. Great selection of drinks especially whisky, will definitely be back.

Had an excellent dinner here. We were looking for something nice but not overly fancy, and the atmosphere here was perfect for that. Service was friendly and we didn't feel like we had to wait too long for things to arrive, even though they were very busy, so props for that. The food was all very nice; not exceptional, but we didn't come here looking for an expensive fancy meal, so again that's full marks. The drinks were the main attraction however. The cocktail menu was fantastic; it always makes me happy to see such a wide array of the classics represented, and there were no pointless changes to recipes for any reason which is also another pet peeve of mine. You order the drink, you know what you're gonna get, and it was damn good. The gimlet that I had was fantastic! And price was very good too, everything was around the £8 mark which is very competitive. I should also mention that they had a deal where you could order a selection of their smaller plates (called bites) to share, and the price of that was very good too, so if you wanted to come here for drinks but didn't want to sit down for a full meal you could still order some small plates to line your stomach. Very nice, will definitely be returning here. Apologies for the quality of the pictures, we had had a lot to drink by this point. They were really very good!
