This is a fantastic restaurant delivering superb dishes from local produce. The food is as good as if not better than many Michelin star establishments. Cannot understand how previous reviewer could not book a table, I have never received anything other than a courteous reception and warm welcome when dining at Ostlers.
Had a great dinner with our daughter. The chef made her something to nibble on (baked patatoes) after the pidgon she really enjoyed. The staff is very friendly
Such a great place. Intimate and friendly atmosphere, with extremely tasty food. Will definitely be back!
Errr, wow. Not the cheapest out there but for a special occasion it's a glorious wee place: a true diamond in the rough (sorry Cupar). The ingredients is locally sourced, the dishes are cleverly constructed and the taste is sensational (particularly if you're a meat lover). Go, treat yourself.
A very small family run restaurant, did I say small? It can hold maybe 20 people or so. It has been running for about 37 yrs. And I hope for many more. The food is excellent, the detail and care taken shows. Because it can hold so few Booking is a must, and to them every plate counts! You will be rewarded. There is variety to
Chose from a small cleverly crafted menu that will include fish and meats.
The ambience is intimate, expect to spend approx £ 50 a head + wine.
A wee family owned with the most brilliant and attentive serviced I have experienced in Scotland. They made a menu just for us and that tops any restaurant anywhere. Beware Michelin star joints, this one doesn't need a star and is better than you.
Fantastic place. Lovely atmosphere and exceptional service. Meals are made with passion to the point you can taste it. Portions are nice size and quite generous. The place is tiny but really cosy.
This is the best place I have ever eaten! The setting is small, well presented and homely front room with only a handful of tables. The person waiting on you is the owner, and she is incredibly friendly, making conversation, discussing the food and wine with you and generally being a fantastic host. The food is really amazing! You will eat food that you have eaten a hundred times before, say a potato, but suddenly you taste something that you did not know could be achieved with this ingredient. I kept expecting to find some part of the dish that was not so great, but even food I normally would not like (like cabbage) simply becomes something tastier than I could imagine.
I cannot recommend this restaurant enough! It is the best place to eat in this entire region of Scotland!
What can l say, this restaurant is something special. Food was excellent and beautifully presented Very welcoming and friendly. Price wise, whilst some people would say an expensive restaurant to eat at, you would certainly pay an awful lot more in places like London to eat in a restaurant of this standard of food. I Would definitely return and recommend.
Ostler's Close is the best restaurant in which my husband and I have ever had the pleasure to dine, a list that includes MIchelin starred London restaurants. Amanda and Jimmy are both fabulous cooks, passionate about using the best possible ingredients, relentlessly attentive to every detail, resulting in superb food. We enjoyed it so much the first night that we immediately reserved a table for the next night. After Ostler's Close, even our favorite restaurants in London were a let-down, only second best. This review from The List says it best: "Ostlers Close still delivers exquisite food born of rare passion and integrity." My only regret about Ostler's Close is that it is so far from Cape Cod where we live!
My wife and I have been going regularly for 20+ years for our 'special occasions'. The food and service are always of the highest standard and the atmosphere relaxed. Going again soon!
