But'n'ben - Menú

Enjoyed a great meal in this small and intimate restaurant. Food was local and very appetizing and the staff were great being so attentive even explaining a dish I tried which was out with my comfort zone.

I had an incredible meal at But n Ben. The staff was very friendly and I highly recommend this restaurant. The venison and game pie were absolutely superb. If you are staying nearby, you must visit But n Ben.

Feeling at the end of the world, we had a great lunch. Although we had not reserved, we got a place at the fire. The traditional Scottish food was wonderful. Prices are perfectly reasonable. The service was friendly and helpful in questions about food.

We had a fantastic meal at this friendly little restaurant. The staff were very attentive to our family of four, all of whom have gluten intolerance. But'n'Ben offers a great selection of gluten-free, dairy-free, nut-free, and gluten-free options. I highly recommend this restaurant for a delicious meal.

The meal was absolutely fantastic. I couldn't find any fault with it. The service was amazing and the setting was lovely and cozy. We dined with another couple who had been before and booked it for us. They mentioned that reservations fill up quickly, but if you have the chance, I highly recommend trying it out.

Although the ambience is very dated don’t be put off, the food is amazing! Very homely, plentiful , and certainly delicious! Speaking only for myself, I had the smokie pancake which hasn’t changed one bit since I first tasted it in the 1980s. That’s a good thing ! everything served with large portions of very fresh local veg. And a charming smile! Truly Scottish home style cooking at its very best!!

Its been a long time since my last visit and we left feeling very underwhelmed. My husband had the fish and chips and I chose the smokie pancake, both were around £15 each. I was looking forward to the smokie pancake as I have had it previously. It was not very big and for £15 it didn't contain very much fish. The fish was also on the small size, it was more batter than fish. We each ordered large squash and soda. I was shocked to be charged £4.95 per soft drink. I did question this and was told it was correct price for a pint of lime/soda. This mark up is beyond belief! Leaving us with a £40 lunch bill for underwhelming food. Given the current economic climate people expect to get what they...

I hadn’t been to the ButnBen for a long time, the girl serving us was polite and friendly, the surroundings are quite dated but quaint. The food was disappointing I ordered the battered fish and chips, was more like a fish Dijon with a thin slice of fish inside, quite small tbh, then I ordered a blackcurrant and soda and was charged just under £5, that’s a 5000% markup wow, I still left a good tip for the waitress but when I went to pay the lady at the bar taking the money she frowned and complained that I didn’t even order any cake and coffee, not in a funny sarcastic way in an angry way and made me feel very uncomfortable, there are so many great places to eat around the area and I will ha...

Would have loved to have given a positive review today, but couldn’t because you were closed during your advertised opening hours, ie open on Sunday from 12.00 to 14.00 hrs (website). We were looking forward to Smokey in a Pancake and left our bikes outside prior to walking along the cliffs from Arbroath. The sign on your door confirmed that you would be open then. Having driven to Arbroath and walked back, we were very disappointed to arrive at 1.15 pm to find you closed, and looking as if you hadn’t opened at all today. So we were forced to head back to find some lunch in Arbroath. I don’t want to carp too much, but I’d be pleased if you could update your website and front door notice when...
