Had the pleasure of dining here tonight to celebrate our silver wedding anniversary (actually back in July - but due to circumstances beyond everyone’s control it happened tonight). From the moment we arrived James was the perfect host - we were made to feel more than welcome, we were made to feel at home. The atmosphere was so relaxed and James and Ava (hope I have spelt that right) were so friendly, so welcoming and so professional. Had a relaxing drink in the bar area before going to our table which is always nice. James fully explained the various options available and was very attentive without being overbearing. Our food was stunning, simply stunning. Scallops and Pate to start Cod wrapped in pancetta with butterbean, chorizo and red onion cassoulet and Fillet Steak with twice cooked chips - cooked to perfection for mains Dark chocolate Delice for Dessert. Service was stunning - professional without bowing and scraping (which I personally hate) and just plain friendly. We were not rushed at all, just made very welcome. No hesitation in recommending this restaurant and we WILL DEFINITELY return. Thank you for a superb evening.

We love coming here!! We come for special occasions and it's a real treat for us when we do! We've never had a bad meal and our favourite is Sunday dinner. Would highly recommend to anyone. See you in March! Del and Glen

Follow The Pecking Order 23 on Facebook for all our reviews. Overall experience 9.4/10 Food 9/10 Service 9.9/10 Cleanliness 10/10 Atmosphere/Setting 9/10 Value 9/10 This House is through the roof!! A nice location. Ample parking at the back. Overall this was a very satisfying experience. The service started brilliantly.We were greeted at the bar by the Head Waiter who instructed his staff to seat us at our prebooked table. Our drinks orders were taken and then the Head Waiter came over to inform of the Specials on the menu and the soup of the day. A short wait for our drinks followed by our usual mix of starters. We had the scallops which were on the specials menu. These were cooked perfectly, sat on a cauliflower puree, a thoroughly enjoyable dish.. The Duck Orange Pate had a good flavour and was seved with a chutney, which slightly overpowered the pate and bread. The wild mushroom arancini, the only real disappointment of the meal, was a little bland, we couldn't really taste the mushrooms and garlic if there was any present though great texture. The marinara sauce they sat on was a good strong clean and fresh flavour. We had the beef sirloin Sunday Roast main course served with Yorkshire pudding, roast potatoes , mash and vegetables. The beef was cooked to perfection and the gravy was exceptionally delicious. Mash was smooth and creamy and well cooked vegetables. The horseradish served with it had good kick, and seemed to be homemade with real grated horseradish. We had to try the seasonal bonfire parkin cake. Although nice and a bit different from the usual menu desserts it was in need of some more sauce or ice cream. The sticky toffee pudding was light and full of flavour. The blackberry parfait was a little bland lacking the punch of blackberry I was hoping for, but pleasant enough. Although the food was very good overall, it was the service which was outstanding at this place. We were offered drinks at exactly the right moment, we were checked on to see if everything was OK, the staff were all courteous and respectful, taking care to apologise for any interruptions they needed to make to offer drinks etc. The chap running the team was meticulous in his work and orchestrated everything impeccably. This would have been our first 10/10 for service but one of the waitresses brought our last drink holding the glass by the top with her fingers all around the rim. We will definitely be returning to try the midweek menu . The Pecking Orders final verdict. Being just a few minutes off the M1 motorway it's definitely worth a detour if you're passing.

Enjoyed a great family meal celebration evening for my 70th birthday with my family we were made feel very welcome on arrival the staff were very friendly. The meal was excellent and service was outstanding especially with a party of 20 including 4 children couldn't have been any better thank you so much will definitely return and recommend you .

Had a delightful Sunday Lunch on 18.5.2025. Food delicious - beautifully cooked and presented. Staff attentive and polite, nothing was too much trouble for them. Will definitely go again. Thanks from all 4 of us.

It's been a good many years since I've been to Beatson house and it was entirely worth visiting again. We booked and came at opening (as parents of 3 kids... It's always about the early meal now), it was just the two of us.. which is a rarity. We got arguably the best table in front of the window which gives you a lovely view of the blossom trees across the road and some hints of the out lying country side. This view combined with the good taste in music, some nice candles and lovely decor makes it a really lovely romantic venue to be in. My wife had the scallops for starter and I had the soup (butternut squash soup) both came quickly and we're amazing. The soup... Probably the best I've ever had. For main I had the tagine and the Mrs had the duck. Again exceptionally well seasoned and beautifully cooked. The service was exceptional, friendly and efficient! If you are looking for that intimate date night meal out... This. Is. The. Place! Absolutely will be going again, just not leaving it so long this time

We went here for an early Mother's day celebration, and we had an amazing time. The food was excellent, as was the service, with everyone being very friendly and considerate. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for somewhere special to celebrate an occasion or just to enjoy some seriously delicious food!

Had a wonderful Sunday lunch at Beatson House. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. Staff were really lovely and nothing was too much trouble. Thank you so much.
