Craigie Tavern

It is what it is, a pub. But, the Bull and Bush restaurant is not what you’d expect for a pub. Not a very varied menu but what they do is beautifully cooked and presented by friendly and helpful staff. One of the best fillet steaks I’ve had, and I’m super fussy. Great little salad bar for your starters, generous with the prawns and mussels, cabbage and bacon soup was divine. Definitely go for the classic banana split. Doesn’t disappoint. Eat early if you don’t like a band later on.

You get the usual house full of eyes on you as a young woman walking in here but that is to be expected at any pub/​tavern. The people here are friendly enough and keep to themselves bordering on the derro side. The room is basically a square box with a door into the restaurant which is very simple.
There is a sports bar and all the beer here is not nearing $ 15 a pint like some places which explains how the locals can stay in there for so long. The outside area is nice and shady in the summer and just a simple fenced off area with some tables.
The best things about this place for sure are its hearty value for money meals. I had the parma which I needed help to finish and coupled with the well priced pint made me feel almost sickly full.
If you are in the area and your stomach is demanding the justice of a good meal it would be a good idea to stop here.
