Reviews on Scottish food in Helensburgh, Scotland, United Kingdom. Helensburgh (/ˈhɛlənzbrə/; Scottish Gaelic: Baile Eilidh, lit. 'town (or burgh) of Helen') is a town within the Helensburgh and Lomond Area of Argyll and Bute Council, Scotland. It also has its own Community Council. Until local government reorganisation in 1996 Helensburgh was in Dumbarton District and hence also in Strathclyde Region; prior to 1975 it was a small burgh with its own town council within Dunbartonshire. In the Middle Ages it was within the Earldom of Lennox, an area sometimes referred to as The Lennox. It lies on the north shore of the Firth of Clyde and the mouth of the Gareloch is close to the western boundary of the town.

Good Food in a relaxed atmosphere. Great ambience for family gatherings or romantic evenings.
We visited The Upper Crust for the first time last week having booked a table for dinner with my cousin. The restaurant could easily be missed as it is up a narrow alleyway just of the Helensburgh sea front. The restaurant is a former bakery and is quaintly decorated with the former ovens being a focal point. As the holiday season is not yet in full swing we had the place to ourselves and benefitted from the attention of the chef as well the waitress who was attentive without being intrusive. The starters were varied but we all plumped for the Scallops with Charley Barleys Stornoway black pudding which is a favourite of ours and they didnât disappoint. Main courses ranged from Rib-eye steak, to braised beef and pan fried trout. The steak was succulent and tender and a large 9oz but could have benefitted from some mushrooms. The helpings were generous and the food was delicious although the presentation wasnât fine dining but itâs the taste that counts ! The background music became a bit monotonous after a while although the chef was happy to turn the music off. The sweets included sticky toffee pudding, chocolate tarte and pavlova and all were home made and delicious. There are a variety of reasonably priced wines to suit most tastes. We will certainly return and I have no doubt booking will be essential in high season.

Staying at caravan park roseneath were told about a cafe in kilgreggan small cafe but seafood specials on the board fresh that day and does not hit the pocket to badly if you are a smoker or like a coffee outside and look over to gourock and then you have that facility worth a visit good to see small places like this still surviving in today's rat race.

Other than to say this place is awesome and served us the best sandwiches weâve had in a very very very long time. The brown sourdough is so good I cannot describe it, homemade soups both perfect. Coffee also the best Iâve had for ages and the empire biscuit and lemon cake we carried out also superb. Highly recommend.

Sugar Boat: a friendly, neighbourhood bistro, bar and wine shop at 30 Colquhoun Square in Helensburgh. Approximately 40 minutes by train directly from Glasgow.
Another annual visit to The Sugar Boat and it was as good as ever! A very engaging and helpful host; a very flavoursome and high quality meal for 4. It will definitely remain on the âmust-doâ list for next year. In particular, we opted for the Serrano ham as a shared starter - really tasty. All four main courses were a huge success - beef, burger, cod and stone bass. The only suggestion on desserts would be to provide some more options for guests with nut allergies. Overall, Iâm so delighted that this place is going strong and I really hope it will continue for years to come! Please visit and give them your custom - Iâm sure you wonât regret it!!

First time visit and it was buzzing. With a varied menu that is slightly weighted towards seafood there is something for everyone.

Well cooked, well presented and incredibly tasty.Will certainly return when next in the area, and would recommend it to anyone.

went on Wednesday evening which does have 2 steaks and a bottle of wine for £30 but decided on the a la carte menu. Prawns in chili and garlic to start, lamb schwarma main course and dark chocolate salted caramel tart to finish. I truly cannot remember the last time I enjoyed all 3 courses at a restaurant in one evening like this. Friendly chatty staff as well and good wine and beer selection. Well done Riverhill we will be back!

We came her for my daughters birthday. Food was very well made and the view on to the farm grounds is great. This is a lovely place with home baking and true Scottish hospitality. There are llamas here also that were being clipped during our visit.
