4.6(786 reviews)
92/100
Hudsons in East Kilbride is a cracking little pub with a warm, welcoming feel, top-notch staff, and plenty of events to keep things entertaining – it's a real favourite for a relaxed pint or a lively night.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely lovely and really make you feel welcome, like chatting with old mates.
  • It's got a brilliant community vibe, with friendly locals and events like bingo and open-mic nights that keep things lively and fun.
Areas for Improvement
  • It might get a bit crowded during big events like bingo or live sports, which could make it tricky if you're after a really peaceful evening.
  • From what I've seen, the food options are mentioned but not raved about as much as the drinks and atmosphere, so it might not be the first choice for a full meal out.

The Auldhouse Arms Bar

Verified
4.6(542 reviews)
92/100
The Auldhouse Arms is a delightful Scottish pub in East Kilbride, blending cosy charm with tasty, inventive food and a welcoming atmosphere that keeps you coming back for more.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The atmosphere is absolutely lovely – it's got that warm, cosy Scottish pub feel that makes you want to settle in for the evening, with a touch of rustic charm and friendly vibes all around.
  • The food is a real highlight; they use fresh, local ingredients to create delicious dishes, from hearty steaks to vibrant salads and plenty of vegetarian, vegan, and gluten-free options that change daily – and it's all great value, like their £10 steak night or two courses for £25.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's closed on Tuesdays, which can be a bit of a nuisance if you're planning a mid-week outing.
  • Dogs aren't allowed in the main restaurant, so if you're dining in there, you might have to leave your four-legged mate behind.

Brew 74 is a cracking little pub in East Kilbride with top-notch food, a warm welcome, and family-friendly vibes, though keep an eye on those portion sizes and opening days.
Pros and Cons
What's Great

  • The food is delicious and well-prepared, with highlights like burgers and specials that hit the spot every time
Areas for Improvement
  • Portions can be on the smaller side, so if you're after a really hearty meal, you might want to pile on the sides
  • It's only open five days a week, which means you'll need to check the schedule to avoid disappointment

The Montgomerie Arms is a delightful historic pub in East Kilbride with a warm, welcoming vibe, cracking drinks, and a touch of live music, though it could do with a freshen-up here and there.
Pros and Cons

  • The atmosphere is absolutely charming, like stepping back in time to a cosy historic inn with all the old-world vibes intact
  • Staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making you feel right at home from the moment you walk in

4.5(507 reviews)
90/100
The Bonnie Prince Charlie was a cracking little pub in East Kilbride with friendly staff and tasty grub, but it's sadly closed now, leaving us all a bit gutted.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are absolutely brilliant – from what I've heard, folks like Cara, Natalie, and Kyle go out of their way to make you feel welcome with their friendly chats and top-notch service.
  • The food and drinks are a real highlight; reviews rave about delicious meals and cocktails that are reasonably priced, perfect for a casual night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • It's heartbreaking to say, but the pub has closed its doors for good, so you won't be able to pop in for a pint anytime soon.
  • With it being shut, all that great service and vibe is on hold, which means missing out on what sounded like a proper local gem.

Carrigan's East Kilbride

4.5(1515 reviews)
90/100
Carrigan's East Kilbride is a cracking little pub with delicious food, warm service, and a welcoming feel, though you might have to navigate some parking woes.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food is absolutely spot on – fresh, wholesome, and packed with flavour, like that Tex Mex Chicken or the steak pie that just melts in your mouth.
  • Staff are so friendly and welcoming; they make you feel right at home, whether you're popping in for a quick bite or a family dinner.
Areas for Improvement
  • The car park can be a right pain, especially when it's busy – you might end up circling for ages or dealing with spaces taken by those who shouldn't.
  • It seems like they might get a bit overwhelmed at peak times, as one review mentioned struggling with portions or waits, though that's not too common.

East Kilbride Harvester is a warm, family-oriented spot with top-notch service and a welcoming vibe, but it sometimes struggles with food consistency.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The service is absolutely spot-on, with friendly staff who go the extra mile to make everyone feel welcome – it's like chatting with old mates.
  • It's a brilliant choice for families, offering a diverse menu with something for all ages, including unlimited salad and plenty of vegetarian options.
Areas for Improvement
  • Food quality can be inconsistent; some dishes, like the chicken or veggies, might turn out a bit dry or undercooked, which is a shame.
  • Prices feel a tad steep for what you get, especially when the meals don't always hit the mark in terms of flavour or presentation.

  • They don't serve any food, so you'll have to pop in with your own or head elsewhere for a bite.

Leeburn Table Table is a welcoming pub in East Kilbride that's spot on for a relaxed meal with mates – think tasty grub, friendly faces, and good value, though it has its quirks like any spot.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The food here is absolutely spot on – think delicious pizzas, hearty gammon steaks, and new lunch deals starting from just £5, making it a brilliant spot for a wallet-friendly meal.
  • The staff are always so welcoming and efficient; they've got that friendly vibe that makes you feel right at home, whether you're popping in for breakfast or a full dinner.
Areas for Improvement
  • Some dishes might not look as appealing as they taste, like the garlic mushrooms that one person said looked a bit shop-bought, which could put you off at first glance.
  • It can feel a tad like a standard chain pub, similar to a glorified Wetherspoons in some ways, so if you're after something more unique, it might not quite hit the mark.

I go to this pub as it's the local real ale pub. They look after the cask ale well. It always rotates often. Good variety of ales.

The Village Inn

5.0(2 reviews)
75/100
The Village Inn in East Kilbride is a hidden gem of a pub with top-notch vibes, thanks to its friendly staff, cracking live music, and spacious beer garden – though it could do with a bit more buzz online.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • The staff are incredibly attentive and make you feel right at home, always ready with a smile and quick service.
  • They've got fantastic live music that really gets the atmosphere buzzing – perfect for a lively night out.
Areas for Improvement
  • With only a couple of reviews out there, it might not be the most well-known spot yet, so you could be taking a bit of a chance.
  • The opening hours seem a bit limited, mostly just five days a week and wrapping up early, which might not suit everyone’s plans.

The Union in East Kilbride is a charming bar that's spot on for live music and a relaxed night out, though it's closed at the moment.

The Cmon Inn

3.2(82 reviews)
65/100
The Cmon Inn in East Kilbride is a traditional pub with a warm, local charm that's cherished by some, but it falls short with occasional unwelcoming attitudes and upkeep issues.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's got that classic community vibe, with friendly regulars who are always up for a good chat and make you feel right at home if you're a local.
  • From what some folks say, the staff can be wonderfully kind and welcoming, creating a cosy spot for a pint and a catch-up.
Areas for Improvement
  • It seems a bit exclusive, with stories of visitors being turned away just for not being from the area, which can leave you feeling a tad awkward.
  • There are mentions of rude staff and poor conditions, like dirty facilities and a less-than-ideal atmosphere that might put you off.

Kilbryde Arms
23rd

Kilbryde Arms

Kilbryde Arms is a bit of an unknown quantity in East Kilbride – a quaint cottage pub with potential charm, but lacking any buzz or info to back it up.
Pros and Cons
What's Great
  • It's situated in a charming cottage in East Kilbride, which could make for a cosy, traditional pub vibe.
  • Being in the Glasgow area, it might offer that authentic Scottish hospitality we're all after.
Areas for Improvement
  • There's absolutely no reviews or ratings to gauge what it's like, which makes it a bit of a gamble.
  • It appears to be closed at the moment, or at least that's what the info suggests, so you might turn up and find the doors shut.
