   Was greatly disappointed with this establishment this weekend. I called on 25/10/25 to book some tables for 09/11/25. Spoke to a lady who assured me she had taken the reservation. She also mentioned that there should be no problem finding space as the pub is not usually busy at the time of my booking. Fast forward to today, my entire party showed up on time, only to find that the pub was completely CLOSED! Disappointed, as this is usually a reliable place, but will be heading somewhere else next time.

   Absolutely loved this place! My friend and I stopped in on a random day in October, lovely staff she was more than happy to help with anything. Food was great, got a starter to share and our mains. Would 100% be back

   After a fine wander through Pollok Park, where the only thing more majestic than the Highland cows was my steadily growing hunger, I found myself lured by the siren call of Eala Bhan—which, if ye didn’t ken, means “White Swan” in the Gaelic. A fitting name, because this place is a rare bird indeed. I popped in for lunch, stomach growling louder than a Glaswegian seagull, and settled on the steak and frites from their lunch menu. Now, I’ve eaten steak from the Highlands to the Lowlands and even the occasional dodgy service station, so I like to think I know my meat. And let me tell ye—this was a treat. First off, credit where credit's due: my plate arrived exactly 19 minutes and 25 seconds after ordering. I only timed it because I was debating whether to eat the napkin or the menu. The price was shockingly reasonable, especially given the quality and generous portion. The steak was tender enough to make a grown man weep, the frites crispier than a January morning, and the sauce? Och aye—it was the kind of velvety, flavour-packed drizzle that could redeem even a tattie scone disaster. I asked for my steak medium, but it came closer to well-done. Normally that would ruffle my sporran a wee bit, but the flavours were so spot-on, I let it slide. Besides, the staff were absolute gems—warm, cheery, and just the right amount of nosy. Like a good Scottish auntie, they made you feel right at home.

   Delightful pub. We had delicious, well presented, simple pub grub. Great portion sizes and friendly unobtrusive service.

   Delicious burger and fries, generous on the pickles. Service is a bit slow, but if you get their attention they're very friendly and accommodating.

   Been visiting here many times over the years as the food and service are always good. Food and service was good today but Chef needs to remember customers can hear him whilst sitting. Our order arrived minus a side, the server apologised as their mistake and wouldn't charge for it. We said its ok dont worry about it but they brought it over and we could hear " remember to charge them we aren't a f^£king charity" nice. £29 for roast, brunch dish, soft drink and coffee.

   Second time I have been here and always good food. Accompanied by friendly and efficient service. Decor throughout is welcoming and is a place which is good during the afternoon and at a night. Has a few tables outside which gets plenty of sun too. Recommended and not too far from the main Shawlands strip.
