The Esplanade Hotel

Lovely food if a little expensive. Frong house staff are very welcoming. Wen t on two nights and really enjoyed. If going in summer I would suggest that it would be worth booking, as it can be rather busy. Would highly recommend a visit if you are in Rothesay.

Lovely find went 2 nights running on Saturday night they fitted us as they were extremely busy. Had sweet and sour chicken it was lovely and very good value. On both nights Only draw back is there is quite a few stairs and we could not see a lift. Staff were lovely.

After a family member recommended here for dinner we went with out 2 children, staff were lovely, it was very busy so did wait a while for food to arrive which was expected due to it being so busy but was so dissapointed hubby got the steak pie which was tasteless and the puff pastry had been cooked probably earlier that day and just heated up (he is a head chef so knows when things are "shoved in the box" to reheat) my daughter got cajun pasta far far too spicy, no peppers or onion in it either. My son wanted a roast dinner and this was the most expensive out of everything and if he wasn't so hungry I would have complained there and then the portion was ridiculous (and no it wasnt a childs portion she told us it was just adult portions which I would have ordered anyways as he was hungry with us traveling all day) a few bits of veg and about 4 green beans and 2 YES TWO baby potatoes with a couple of slithers of meat drowned in gravy no mash or roast potatoes just 2 undercooked, hard baby potatoes no yorkshire puddings, I got the fish and chips was expecting the batter to be lovely and bubbly crispy but it was flat as a pancake had to give my son half my chips as what he got was shocking for being the most expensive plate at the table, chips were the only thing that was good but not enough of them don't know if it's because they were too busy but definitely not worth the money and wouldn't recommend to anyone we know unfortunately
