Higher end eating

For those afternoons and nights when you want something a little more special.
In the Michelin guide. We have dined here on multiple occasions and the tasting menu's are superb. Tayberry in Dundee is home to previous young chef of the year Adam Neweth. Definitely worth a visit for a special occasion or if you're just a foodie like us.

The sister restaurant of the Tayberry and part owned by that fantastic chef. We ate there when Adam started his career and it was amazing then. It can only have gotten better.

The closest club to us, nothing that will set the world alight but worth a visit if you want to stay local. The food in the clubhouse is ok, it won't set the world alight but nice for a drink and a relax on the balcony.
