The River Inn - Renfrewshire

We had a great meal at The Carvery last Friday, November 24th. The food was excellent as always, thanks to Jason's usual high standards. However, we were disappointed to hear from Angela that the restaurant would be closing on Sunday, November 26th. The restaurant seemed busy with a large party of about 50 women celebrating, but it seems it was not enough to keep the business going. We will miss The Carvery!

I had visited this restaurant before and had a positive experience. However, this time I was quite disappointed. Despite the staff being friendly, helpful, and professional, the food quality was very poor. It was clear that the food was frozen, and I believe paying £13.00 for a small portion of frozen fish and chips is too expensive. The ambiance of the restaurant is great, with comfortable surroundings and a relaxed atmosphere. Overall, I found the food to be overpriced for what was essentially just pub grub.

I had an amazing carvery meal at this restaurant. The selection was impressive and the quality was top-notch, especially the perfectly cooked roast beef. The variety of vegetables and potatoes was lovely, and the dessert options were delicious as well. The staff were very attentive.

Popped in for dinner ad-hoc. Ate in the main restaurant. Nice enough venue, quiet as midweek. Starter of Salt Chili Chicken was uninspiring as breaded chicken goujons, sliced with an indeterminate sauce which didn't meet expectations, dish was neither salt or chili. Nachos were decent and well received although sour cream was off the menu that day. Steak was very good, but the Blaggis Supper is something which although piqued my interest from the menu, will never be ordered again. It is the illegitimate child of 2 good puddings and not a culinary masterpiece. Served with fries on a plate, on paper, with a boat of onion sauce, which added further confusion to the plating presentation.

Hi always a lovely day until today ordered steak pie and found a hard twig like in my food I looked under the pastry and found a twig like branch with the meat food I left the food unable to consume and handed the dish back to the concerned rep I did refuse any more food from there kitchen however i did wait until the company I was in finished there meals which was to there satisfaction on paying for the meal a considerable sum they said it was a sprig of rosemary and said it had to be paid for and he was not authorised to adjust the bill and I need to pay I did so and now we will no longer use the lovely River Inn , S hame!!
