    Absolutely lovely. A good friend and I love to have tea together and saw this on an Instagram post. The sandwiches were delicious, scones were yummy, dessert was great. But honestly it’s the TEA I can’t stop thinking about. The Cream Earl Grey was so fantastic I asked if they sold it. We learned they have a special tea consultant (that’s not the term but I can’t recall.) We also received a glass of champagne on arrival and each of us tried a cocktail which were both unique and delicious. Service was warm and friendly. Will return!

    I met a few for drinks and more friends came out than expected. The host was accommodating and added an additional few chairs and a table! The service was incredibly accommodating, and everything flowed seamlessly. The staff ensured our needs were met promptly, making it a stress-free experience. A special shout-out to Anna, who was exceptional—attentive, friendly, and made great recommendations. Whether it’s for a quick lunch, happy hour or a relaxing dinner, Loch Bar does not disappoint. Highly recommend.

    As we walked up to our the door the smell of an outstanding fish restaurant was impressive. We were warmly greeted and were not rushed to make our choices. The appetizers were superb as were the cocktails. Our entrees were perfectly cooked and the flavors were spot on. We will be eating here again.

    Sunday brunch was great and we really enjoyed the selection of food. The coffee was too strong so we asked the waiter for hot water to try and dilute the strong brew. Overall exceptional service as usual and a really great time.
