Visit the handsome restaurant at Crutherland House in East Kilbride and enjoy a wonderful selection of dishes, created with ingredients that are carefully sourced and treated with respect by our team of talented chefs. That’s why you’ll appreciate the quality of the steak cooked exactly the way you want it, whether you’re a ribeye lover, a sirloin fan or just crave the tastiest burger around. All our beef is hung for at least 21 days and our white fish is sustainable – so our Battered North Sea Haddock and hand cut chips is a favourite dish with great provenance, too. There’s something for everyone on the menu so leave the inspiration to us – simply sit back and enjoy a first-class dining experience. If you prefer something more casual, relax in the Lounge Bar and enjoy a drink and something lighter to eat. Both our dining areas are open to non-residents and the stunning countryside views are a bonus.

Really lovely lunch and Christmas menu. Wouldn’t spoil rating but a wee bit of tablet or a mint with a coffee would have been a nice touch. Second time in a month and wasn’t disappointed. Fab place

The Sunday roast was sublime, the best meal I’ve had in a long time. I’ll definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. The tv volume on the night was very loud but the staff turned it down for us when asked. It was my first time in but it won’t be the last.

We had a family dinner and it’s was fantastic. Loved the look of the restaurant, and peaceful enough to talk, but cosy with the beautiful lighting. Food was amazing and service too. Couldn’t fault anything.

Love this place. Food is consistently good - Italian with a dash of wider Mediterranean - well-chosen and fairly priced wine list, and lovely friendly service.
