Bothy - Carte

Good beer and pleasant service, definitely worth stopping by if you're in the neighborhood.

The food is good and this restaurant is a great option for dining without a reservation. It seems that reservations are required at more popular establishments.

The bar was quite attractive and comfortable. Staff was very friendly and accommodating. The food itself, however, was nothing spectacular (though not bad) for the prices charged. Voir le carte

excellent lamb and steak. large selection in the menu. good beer selection. had no problems the other reviewers had. better atmosphere inside than implied outside. friendly service. well cooked meat. good chips.

we were asked to leave by 10pm on a Thursday night as they were closing even though we were residents, a group of 10 people came in just before 10pm and were turned away, we went elsewhere, Kirkwall was busy that night, so turning business away seems bizarre to me

On a very blustery wet evening we experienced a truly scrumptious dinner in Bothy Bar ….along with a Scapa smoked heather honey whisky! The Orkney beef pie had the lightest flakiest pastry I’ve ever had, plus the beef was melt in the mouth! Desert was exceptional too…glazed pineapple and bananas with coconut ice cream. Yummy! staff were helpful, friendly and good humoured Voir le carte

Me and my partner where so excited to go and have quite a few bevvies and have outlr little well behaved dog with us. Couldn't leave her in the bnb we were staying in. We were turned away at the door before we could even speak to them. Felt really rejected. I suggest they should have a sign on the door saying no dogs. That might have helped us from getting our hopes up and leaving this review. Their loss.

Ordered 2 main meal 's. One was a normal size, the other had the size of a starter. After a remark to the barkeeper, the only respons was I mention it to the kitchen , a follow up never came. Will not be coming back to a bar/restaurant that even can 't put out the same size proprotions to the same table. My advise stay away from this bar if you want food, go somewhere else. Ps. The beer is fine, but nobody screws that up.

Busy kitchen on the night, by all accounts. No draught beers due to 'maintenance '? The food that myself and my partner had was fantastically underwhelming...sadly, we wanted a treat as it was our last night away. Steak and ale pie with 'seasonal vegetables ', small amount of mash with handful of frozen peas/green beans. Maybe seasonal in Iceland, the shop!... Mac and cheese, surely you can 't go wrong? Sadly, yes you can. Stodgy, overcooked pasta, unable to pick up a full piece and very little taste of cheese. Come on! Serve proper veg, it 's cheap. Take less bookings if Chef is under too much pressure. Give customers a better experience. Quality and profit can be achieved, with a bit of th... Voir le carte
