Total disgrace! Phoned to book a table for 18 for a family gathering with 7 children included. They were having trouble getting their heads around the numbers and I was trying to help them work out tables. Then I was told they were refusing my booking! I was told they think weâre going to come and cause trouble!! Was it my Glaswegian accent? Totally dumbfounded and disgusted at this treatment for absolutely no reason! The Manager has issues and needs to learn some lessons on customer service not to mention productivity for his takings! Beggars belief!!Many thanks for taking the time to review The Livingston Inn.Itâs a shame that you forgot to mention that you choose to insult our member of staff before we cancelled your booking!!Many people that know our business know how helpful and friendly our staff are - as you can see by many comments before and many guests that continue to return!As mentioned via email we where happy to discuss this further, one business owner to another, but again you choose to insult us!!Again many thanks for taking the time to review our business, have a lovely Easter RegardsLivingston Inn

As my wife and our older daughter were off on a trip to Amsterdam to jointly celebrate their birthdays I went with my younger daugher for a meal at the Black Bull. Both my daughters are frequent diners here, particularly as they both have 'Tastecards', so I thought why not as I also have such a card although I rarely use it.My daughter had Nachos to start followed by Macaroni Cheese which I had the pate followed by the battered haddock and chips. As it is when we were seated at our table I had my back to the 'Specials' board and didn't realise that there were more dishes available than those on the printed menu. While the pate was very nice I would have much preferred the mushroom starter available that day. Anyway my haddock was lovely although the chips were nothing special. Being able to use my Tastecard meant that the meal was very reasonably priced.On the subject of using a 'Tastecard' I learned from my older daughter last week that the Black Bull is now restricting their use when accepting bookings. It would seem that they are only accepting the first two or three bookings on relevant days from people who mention having a Tastecard when booking a table. It was suggested that the Black Bull feels that it is losing money through too many people using such cards. While I can appreciate where they are coming from in this regard if this is the case then maybe they should withdraw from the scheme. Surely it is a case of all or nothing?Thank you for your review. I'm glad you enjoyed your visit with us here at The Bull and hope to see you again soon.With regards to Tastecards or any discount cards for that matter (we currently have Tastecard, Gourmet Society, Dine Card and Meerkat Meals), we took the decision based purely on the fact that the cards now as so easily available to obtain and as such are creating an unsustainable level of discount. These cards are meant to create a platform to encourage customers to try new places to eat. However, what we are experiencing is very few new customers but regular diners are now looking for discount. Rather than withdraw completely, which may still happen, we thought it would be better to limit the number of discounted tables to 3 per day through Sunday to Thursday.We carry the cost for this discount and not as some people imagine, the card issuers. As a family run pub, we are simply trying to protect our business and our employees. The current situation with a big pizza chain is perhaps a good example that even big branded restaurants using discount has not been so good for them.We have our own loyalty program called The Black Card and we are looking at ways to improve that offer into the new year after the festivities are over. As mentioned earlier, I hope to welcome you back perhaps even before then.Kind regards.

There's little I can write that I've not mentioned in previous reviews. Constantly lovely meals served up with passion by the chefs using fresh produce and virtually everything homemade with choices to appeal to most palates. With lovely attentive and helpful servers there's little any one can criticise hence our regular visits and now some of our friends have followed our recommendations too. My breaded haddock with homemade tartar sauce and chunky chips and peas were delish as was my wife's scampi and sweet potato fries with salad garnish ( I forgot to photo) followed by apple and sultana crumble with a hint of cinnamon served with custard with my wife devouring her sticky toffee pudding and icecream. Situated in a rural location yet we've seen 30/40 dining here at lunchtimes and 75% of those being non golfers all appreciating good food and service.

Reviewed By Yvonne_Ron
Absolutely awful. Do not go here. Chef shouted aw FFS when meal sent back. Sent steak pie back as 'chips' were not chips. They were burnt potatoes wedges. Meat was very tough. Inedible. Pleasant waiting staff. Felt for them. We were told it was the business owner that swore. If we'd had the kids with us I would have left and not paid for the starters if they'd heard that language. Starters were not hot and salad with mushrooms was tired and not fresh. Won't be back. Very very poor. We recommend Harburn golf club instead. Faultless.
