Sir William Wallace Hotel reviews

1 Star Review by David Gamble

Anyone know what's going on? This wonderful old pub has been vacant (and half-demolished) for two years now, with NO sign of progress. We'll be really disappointed if this is more apartments by stealth!

3 Star Review by Hana Marra Murra

Been here a couple of times and the food is alright. it's good for a couple of friends to head down to the pub, however later at night it becomes louder and more brawly... not too great for the kids. More of a casuals pub than a nice regular pub. wouldn't really go back again, unless for the food. cheap and delicious!

5 Star Review by Andrew Stewart

This is what pubs used to be! Such a great place. Old school with history and great beer. Pubs these days are sterile, but not at the Willy Wally!! Stop by and see what I mean. Food is great too.

5 Star Review by Chris Simpson

A pub that is still original and has not be gutted. One of the last places still with Dart board and pool table. Good friendly staff and relaxing atmosphere. Outstanding pub that should be on your list to visit.

1 Star Review by David Gamble

Just walked up to see the terrific Grateful Dad's....... standing in the small side bar with the missus and kids and the two charming harridans "serving" refuse to serve me as the main bar is busy. This despite my having clear line of sight into that bar and no one is waiting. Arrogant, complacent BS. After 20 years of occasionally supporting this boozer no more The last couple of dinners there average at best and this evening you've iced the cake. Well done girls. Avoid. The Oak and Dry Dock effortlessly superior.
