Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Third time we have visited The Upper Largo Hotel and first time for a meal. Well recommended. Had the roast dinner and it was wonderful. Usually pop in for scones and they are always good. Friendly service. My mum had a lovely birthday dinner today....Thank you.More

Fantastic food and ambiance; the staff were incredible- a real reflection on the owners. They went above and beyond our expectations particularly when we were also looking to park our rally car for the evening beside the hotel- we would throughly recommend! Thank you

Been looking forward to visiting for the third year in a row. The food was good and staff excellent. Gutted you’ve taken the burger off of the outside menu. It was one of the reasons to visit. Hope it comes back on the outdoor menu...soon!!!More

We had a great night. Lovely Staff, great food & a fair amount of drink. Sounds sad but we had fun playing dominoes & the other people in the bar/restaurant were good fun. Definitely worth a visit.

Nice place to visit and staff helpful and welcoming for our lunchtime visit. Nice open restaurant and was sat in conservatory window that was clean, not sticky like our previous place we had tried on same day. Not cramped for space. Menu choice was good...and reasonable priced. My wife had scampi and I ordered reasonably priced Lobster with sheeted and bacon chips. My wife’s meal was good and mine looked great but the lobster, albeit looked great was not. It was rubbery and almost inedible. The cheese chips and bacon was too heavily loaded with cheese that in my opinion was not to my taste. It congealed basically to a solid lump and you had to cut and eat with a knife and fork. Lobster cooking, I would have thought was something, in this locality especially, would take pride in cooking. Either frozen and blasted in microwave or just overcooked but I suspect the former might be the truth. I did mention to the staff on being asked f meal was ok and they showed empathy but nothing else. Pity as I so looked forward to my lobster first I had since Caribbean cruise 10+ years ago. I would go back but would leave lobster in the freezer and order something else.More

Visited this restaurant on two consecutive evenings for dinner and was not disappointed. The first evening I had steak pie and could have licked the plate. My husband had breaded Haddock and said it was excellent. The second evening I had fish and my husband...had a beef burger which looked amazing. Service was very good but getting a second drink was a bit of a chore. Granted, the restaurant was very busy and it’s full of wee nooks and crannies therefore, staff didn’t have an overview. Our dog was given water and biscuits and staff made time to greet all dogs when they arrived. Staff organised a taxi for us to return to the Monturpie Caravan/Camping Site. It was 20 minutes downhill walk but too dark to return by foot as there is a busy road outside the restaurant. The hotel/restaurant offers limited parking in their courtyard but there is another parking area opposite. I would recommend parking in the courtyard if you have children or vulnerable adults on board. Lovely outside seating area under cover and the restaurant has plenty of seating inside. Nevertheless, I would recommend booking as it gets really busy as it serves food all day.More

The food here is fantastic. Only slightly let down by the less attentive service. No drinks menu offered. Extra cutlery brought out in hand and shoved under my husband's nose. Just my opinion, but the service needs to match the quality of food.

I phoned to book a table to celebrate my Dad's 80th birthday (12 adults & 4 children) but they offered me use of their private room with no extra charge. They had set the tables out beautifully & had even printed Happy 80th Birthday on...the menus. The generous portions of food were delicious and the kitchen catered for dairy & soya allergies. The serving & bar staff were so lovely and accommodating taking photos etc and made no complaints even when the kids started running around! The little touches, staff & food made the day even more special and I can't thank them enough for their effortsMore

Stayed here for a night away with my husband. On arrival, the beds were not made up to a double room and advised to go to the bar whilst being made up, which we did. Proceeded to have dinner, usual affair. I had scampi.We had...some drinks with dinner. Returned back to our room, bed was made up as a double, but one side was totally unusable and appeared to be crushed. It was late and no one available to speak to. That night was the worst I have ever spent. Two adults squeezed onto one side, no sleep at all. In the morning, mentioned to housekeeping who responded 'yes, we noticed that last night, it must have been a 'big big person and the mattress has been crushed, sorry anout that'. We paid in full in advance. E mailed hotel owner, who stated the mattress was only 3 weeks old and thank you for bringing this to our attention.. If you find yourself booking this hotel, avoid room 3 at all cost! Dreadful. We were hoping for something taken from the bill, (food), or at least an appology - neither We couldn't even leave to drive home as we'd had a drink in the bar.More

What a find! Well worth the slight detour when my satnav took us to Lower Largo instead. We stayed overnight on a Woucher DBB deal, and although we arrived well ahead of booking time, our room was ready, so we had ample time for a...look around the area. Our room (2) was compact but very comfortable, warm, clean and nicely decorated, theme continued into the en suite. Obviously well known locally for its food, as although we had a fairly early dinner, the dining areas were already busy. Menu had a good choice of dishes, very generous portions, so much so we decided to forego the sweet course - maybe next time. Breakfast, ordered the previous evening, was equally good, and we had a good chat with the friendly staff over our meal. The whole of the East Neuk is a particularly scenic part of Fife - and Scotland - steeped in history and well worth visiting. It won't be so long until our next trip to this area.More
