The Castle Club - Angus

We recently visited Forfar for the first time and tried out this charming restaurant for the first time. We had a delightful high tea at a very affordable price. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The food was delicious, with most items being homemade. We will definitely be returning in the future.

On arrival at The Castle Club we were met by a member of staff who showed us to our table which had been pre-booked. He immediately asked us if we would like drinks and took the order which was served very promptly. He then gave us the menu and advised us of the day's specials. We were given ample time to peruse the menu and make our choices. We chose the following- Steak Pie with Chips, Mini Grill with Roast Potatoes, Silverside with Chips and 2 Chicken Specials with Roast Potatoes. All were delicious as shown by all the plates being empty when the waiter came to clear the table. 2 of us had sweets- 1 an Apple Sponge with Custard, Cream Ice Cream and 1 Banana Fritters with Hot Syrup and Ice Cream. We all then had coffee accompanied by shortbread rounds. Everything was excellent and as one of our party used to own and run a restaurant, he said he couldn't have had better value anywhere else. He has been many times before, but two of our party hadn't been before and they were very impressed. We will all certainly return.

Our friends and us decided to meet at the Castle Club for lunch. We had reserved a table and were greeted on arrival and shown to our table by a very friendly member of staff. We were given the menus and were told what the day's specials were. It was then very difficult to decide what to have. We were given ample time to chose and finally decided on Small Grill for the men and the 2 ladies chose the Silverside all accompanied by Chips or Roast Potatoes. The meals were served quickly, well presented and excellent quality. We followed our main course by having sweets, Ice Cream, Ice Cream Pineapple, Apple Crumble Custard and a Banana Pavlova with Toffee Sauce. Again all were excellent. After these we had coffees. We'll certainly be back and would recommend the Castle Club to our friends.

Whenever our car needs servicing, we make the trip from Dundee to our local Kia dealer in Forfar. One of the benefits of this journey is the opportunity to explore different dining options while we wait for our car. During our most recent visit, we chose to dine at The Castle Club, a combination snooker club and restaurant. Upon entering the establishment, we were greeted with a staircase leading up to the first floor. At the top of the stairs, there were various doors leading to different areas, including the snooker room, toilets, and the restaurant. The restaurant had a charming decor and a welcoming ambiance. The staff promptly seated us at a spacious table and provided us with menus and took our drink order. We started with the smoked salmon starter, which arrived promptly and was delicious. For our main courses, I had the battered fish with chips, carrots, side salad, and braised red cabbage, while my husband opted for the seafood lasagna, which was packed with salmon, prawns, and white fish in a delightful white sauce. Both dishes were flavorful and beautifully presented. The staff were attentive and friendly, making our dining experience enjoyable. We were recommended to try the steak pie on our next visit, and we look forward to returning. I highly recommend dining at The Castle Club; you won't be disappointed.

Dropped in on way to watch football at Station Park within easy walking distance. The two waitresses provided first class service, and the food was fabulous and reasonably priced.
