Fantastic lunch at the Criterion. Our waiter was lovely He recommended the specials and I’m so glad he did. We had the Christmas dinner pie and the bbq meatballs both very tasty. Thanks chef !!! The glass of Pinot Noir house wine was also excellent. We will be back Food: 5 Service: 5 Atmosphere: 4

I really enjoyed the ambiance of this restaurant. The lunch options were delicious and the staff was friendly, attentive, and upbeat. The price range per person is typically between £10 and £20. I would rate the food a 4, the service a 5, and the atmosphere a 5. I highly recommend trying their Mac N Cheese dish.

Went here for dinner last week, and I have to say food and service was of the highest quality, We were made to feel really welcome from the moment we walked in the door and although it was really busy never had to wait for drinks or food service. Would recommend it to anyone visiting St Andrews and will definitely be back for another pie. Ver carta

This is by far our favourite pub in St Andrews added bonus that they serve the best coffee in town great breakfast rolls. Our usual is a roll with Lorne sausage, haggis brown sauce delicious but Chef Mike has added a Belly Buster to the menu which we had to try. Bacon, haggis, Lorne sausage a hash brown while our bellies fortunately didn't burst we didn't need to eat the rest of the day. Definitely worth a visit!

My experience at the Criterion on Saturday December 9th was delightful. It was my first time dining there and I was impressed by their wide variety of beers, lagers, and spirits. The restaurant seemed to be a popular choice for both food and drinks. I am looking forward to visiting again next time I am in St. Andrews. The average cost per person is £30–40 and I would rate the food, service, and atmosphere a solid 4 out of 5. I highly recommend trying the Chicken Pot Pie.

Yet another visit to The Criterion was carried out by myself , my wife, this time with son and fiancee along for the birthday cri-pie. The staff who were working at midday Saturday 25th are a credit to Hazel and a fantastic team. They make you feel valued, treat customers with dignity, respect, a friendly welcome and a smile. Now found the best time to go to make sure we get a table to demolish some pies and some drinks, making our long round trip so much more special. Thanks again team for what you do and how you do it. Fab pies again, whether steak or macaroni, a treat to eat Ver carta
