Falkirk's pubs rated in honest Tripadvisor reviews - here's what people think

Falkirk has pretty much returned to normal after months of lockdown and coronavirus restrictions.

That means many people are getting out and about much more and enjoying more of a social life - so we thought we'd take a look at some popular bars and pubs to see what people think.

Below we've search the following on Tripadvisor to give you an idea of what to expect.

So, if you're heading out over the next few weekends, take a read and give one of the below places a try.

North Star Bar

Rating: 4.0 out of 99 reviews

Address: 28 Vicar Street, Falkirk FK1 1JB

What did the reviews say? "Wish I had found North Star before now, though my waste line would disagree. Hands down best pizza I've tasted. Been a massive pizza fan my whole life and I'm always on the look out for new ones to try. Don't need to look anymore. Amazing"

Another wrote:

"Nice place could be more inviting with comfier seating, the area in the middle needs to be broke up a bit or made into a wee dance floor and a choice of lagers, good DJ."

Sportsters Falkirk will reopen on Thursday October, 28. (Google Maps)

Sportsters

Rating: 4.0 out of 155 reviews

Address: 8-12 Princes Street, Falkirk FK1 1LU

What did the reviews say? "I visited Sportsters with a group of friends and the service was excellent. We were served all evening by Was, who was very attentive and very friendly. Consider the current pandemic the staff made us feel very much at ease."

While someone wasn't too happy with the service.

They said: "Absolutely terrible service. Staff are completely uninterested and not customer friendly.

Behind The Wall

Rating: 3.9 out of 791 reviews

Address: 14 Melville Street, Falkirk FK1 1HZ

What did the reviews say? "Fabulous food and First Class service today at Lunchtime from Suzie and Georgie Boy!! Even although it was extremely busy . Good to to see that it’s still up to The usual great clean standards. Keep Up the good work x"

Elsewhere someone complained about waiting too long on drinks.

"Service was shocking. Ordered drinks waited half an hour so asked if they had been put through and was told yes and that they were on their way to then be waiting an hour to find out that they had not been put through. Someone eventually came to take the order again and then waited another half an hour to one drink to come.

The Oxgang Kitchen Bar and Rooms

Rating: 4.5 out of 27 reviews

Address: 15-17 Oxgang Road, Grangemouth FK3 9BY

What did the reviews say? " A great meal, with great service. Food was spot on for all of our party. Thoroughly enjoyed our evening."

That wasn't everyone's thoughts though.

Another said: "Normally love the Oxgang and have visited often throughout the years but tonight was a real disappointment. Service was so slow (an hour from ordering to being served) and food was awful.
