A pleasant experience in the countryside of Dunfermline. Set in a beautiful little village which has really left a great impression on me. After visiting the sacred healing well, we popped into the inn across the well and had a wee drink and a meal. The food was hot, cooked well with flavour, and served by a helpful and accommodating chap who was very welcoming to outside visitors. I think you have a great little establishment here and wish you all the best! Onwards and upwards fella. You be well. *i left a review on my experience of the well previously so this is my review on the Inn.

As a local, I couldn't feel more neglected. The owner (male, scouser accent) has the people skills of a hyena. He invests all of his energy into his regulars, whilst offering a cheap and artificial welcoming to newcomers.or anyone else that 'doesn't fit' the decor of this tacky slum. Fancy a nice and relaxed pub lunch/dinner? Try venturing 3 minutes down the road to Balgeddie Toll Tavern - a friendly, family owned pub, catered by genuine people who care for customer service and loyalty.

In addition, the food and menu is chalk and cheese in comparison to The Well Inn. The Well Inn is run by someone trying to 'get by', not someone trying to built a successful publican business. Keep looking for those regulars for support - you'll need them.
