Upstairs At The Drake

The menu at this restaurant is fantastic, and the staff is incredibly friendly and attentive. They strike the perfect balance between professionalism and casualness, offering great recommendations for wine and food. The atmosphere of the restaurant is special and stylish, yet not pretentious or overly formal. I absolutely loved it.

My partner and I visited this restaurant the other night and we were impressed by the excellent service we received from Lola. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks. We even brought our small dog and she was great with him too. The food was delicious, especially the broccoli starter. We can't wait to come back and try more dishes from the menu!

I highly recommend The Drake for Sunday Roast. We opted for the beef and it was absolutely cooked to perfection! The staff are amazing from when you enter The Drake until you leave, attentive but not overpowering. We will be back to sample their midweek menu. Can honestly recommend The Drake! You made need to book, especially for their Sunday roast, we saw people being turned away. Speisekarte ansehen

I've been twice now for a sunday roast, and on both occasions, it was pretty bad. 1st time My meal and my mum's was absolutely freezing, hand to send it back. When it came back, the food was burnt, steam was coming off, but still quite cold? Not great. 2nd time My roast came out, cold again, and I had both beef and chicken on my plate, when I had only ordered chicken. Sent back, waited ages, and of course it was cold again. On neither of these occasions was I offered a refund/money off. Avoid.

I went for Sunday roast and ended up feeling disappointed. Three of us ordered roast beef and the beef was cooked nicely. However, the Yorkshire puddings were burnt and there were only two very small roast potatoes. The meals were served on small plates, which seemed to make it look like a larger portion. The service was not great and the staff were not very attentive. When we received the bill, there was a service charge added for four people, which was strange for pub food. Overall, we spent £140 and left feeling hungry. I won't be returning anytime soon.

An absolute treat. The waiters waitresses are lovely. I had the courgette bhaji with curry mayo roast chicken with all the trimmings. The courgette bhaji was probably one of my favourite starter’s I’ve had in years. Absolutely delicious when I praised it to the waiter he told me they run curry nights every so often (I’m really going to keep my eyes peeled for this as a result). Yum! And the roast chicken was phenomenal. Succulent roast chicken with all the trimmings all cooked perfectly. They have a great variety of cocktails drinks too I’ll most definitely be back for another roast such lovely service. Thank you so much guys! X Speisekarte ansehen

We went for the Sunday Roast. Service was very slow, no one checked in or asked us how our food was during or after our meal If they had we would have said given feedback at the time. The roast advertised that is was served with caulifower cheese which I was looking forward to. We weren’t told they had run out and no alternative was offered. We were asked if we wanted any horseradish sauce with our roast, which we did. We then had to wait 15 mins while someone ran to the shop to get some, our meal was cold by this point. There were no apologies or efforts to make up for any of the above- have been to the drake quite a few times but this would put me of returning. There are a lot better Sunda...

The food here was really disappointing. Cullen Skink was cold and returned nuclear after a few spins in a microwave, courgette bhagi was burnt, wings was small and dry, trout was the only starter that was good. Roast chicken was a thigh/leg that was dry, beef was tough as was the pork. All roasts were served with two anaemia roast potatoes, over cooked watery cauliflower and overpowering red cabbage. Also accompanied by a ‘comedy’ carrot that was enormous!! The only thing cooked properly. After seeing other people’s plates arrive with billowy Yorkshire puddings, our frustration was compounded as ours looked as if they had been sat on and were limp. Every dish was served on cold plates, so by...

We went to The Drake 3 times over a one month period with visiting family and friends, because it is very close to our flat while living in Glasgow. The atmosphere is great and the service was excellent. However, the food was only so-so given that this is billed as a gastro-pub. The first experience was great, and the food was really good. We then went to the Sunday roast dinner, and were disappointed to see that there was no cauliflower cheese (as advertised), and the sticky toffee pudding was all gone by the time we arrived at 5:45. The Yorkshire pudding did not taste quite fresh, or made of fresh ingredients. The substituted ice cream sundae lacked some of the advertised ingredients. The... Speisekarte ansehen
