"Busy restaurant and a disappointing start ending up at the worst table in the restaurant beside the hatch where all the dirty dishes are dumped. If booking I would suggest adding a note not to get this table for dinner. 2 steak meals were warm at best and despite being sent back only the plate came back with more heat. One other meal was good and enjoyable. Great server who was helpful and tried to negotiate an adjustment to the bill at the end of the meal which started off with an odd suggestion for a reduction to the overall cost but we got there in the end. No discussion with management, who didn't seem to want to deal with any difficult conversation, but the bill outcome and complimentary round of drinks helped with a disappointing visit. Staff serving tables were great and to be commended for taking on responsibility that would I would have suggested should have been handled by the duty manager."

"First visit to this branch of Masala Twist chain friendly greeting and quick service. Ordered from set lunch menu £10.95 for 2 courses £1 extra for Chicken Pakora and extra for certain Nans. Food delicious and piping hot portions fine for lunch. Restaurant was busy always a good sign n everyone seemed happy with their food. Drinks prices fine. Only negative were the dirty chair coverings and curry stains on radiator.Both could easily be fixed.Will return next time in area"

"Being a first time visitor to the town I nearly didn 't go to Cattle Creel after looking at some of the reviews, but I thought with an excellent average rating I ought to at least try, and I am so gland I did. I like to travel the United Kingdom and as I do I keep a travel diary, here 's last night 's submission: We got back to the hotel a little before 5:00 pm were we had a quick wash and brush up before we headed out for our Friday night supper at Cattle Creel. Jeepers what a fantastic feed we had, and I nearly didn’t go, although they had a 4.5 TripAdvisor rating, a few recent reviews weren’t that good. But I am so glad I gave it a go, as the food, the staff and the atmosphere was brilliant. To start we had some sourdough bread and oil/balsamic vinegar. For the main, as it was tapas Friday we had a fish medley of monkfish cheeks, langoustines and octopus, all of which were lightly battered. We also had a hand dived scallop with slow braised beef and a delicious squash roe puree. Next up we had a fillet steak with a brandy peppercorn sauce and a portion of 36 hours braised ox cheek, with silky mash, red wine jus crispy onions, oh and I ordered a side of chips. What delicious food it was, it was an utter delight, and we were stuffed. I was so stuffed that I declined a dessert and I had an After Eight cocktail instead, it was like velvet on my tongue . Sadly I live 150 miles to the north, in Inverness, or this would be my local restaurant, the dining experience really is that good!"

"The Ruby has played a very big part in my life. I have been many, many times over the years and have never been disappointed. On the night I proposed to my wife we went to the Ruby for dinner, on our 10th wedding anniversary we went again and we were presented with a beautiful plated display, and we were back on our 20th wedding anniversary recently and again were presented with another beautiful plated display! The staff as always were very friendly and even as the restaurant began to get busy they still found the time to chat with diners, this is the way restaurants should operate, so well done and thank you for making my wife and I's anniversaries special."
