Gardenhall Inn

I love this pub the food isn’t too bad always. Service is good staff are nice, we go every couple of months.

One of the nicer pubs in EK. This is only a 15min walk from our house. It has a nice and quite a big seating area outside. It is also south facing and has a nice view of the wind farm.
They have a big lounge and a bar. Dogs are allowed in the bar. They also provide some dog treats and water… much appreciated by a thirst dog.
Not tried the food yet but seem to have a good menu and some special on during the week.
Extensive drinks menu (no real ale). Friendly local pub

The Gardenhall Inn is one of East Kilbride’s classier pubs and the best place to spend a lazy Sunday.
By pub standards the menu is varied and delicious. The waiters are always impeccable in their service and really polite. I guess they are obviously trained this way but it makes so much difference. I recommend the Cheeseburger and BBQ sauce with added bacon and onion rings!
Whether you are in for a family dinner or just enjoying a drink, the atmosphere is generally laid back and its not a bar that attracts rowdiness. Situated in the (slightly more) affluent Gardenhall area of the town, you won’t see many folks in trackies and baseball caps. Also, as it’s on the outskirts of the town, there are thankfully no bookies or pawn shops in sight!
The bar is well stocked, although they could bring in some more Scottish beer and ales to counter the lager options.
On the last Saturday of each month, they also have a singer or a band in of decent quality. And it’s generally packed so make sure and book a table beforehand.

The Gardenhall is a nice local pub, with a separate bar (dogs allowed and made very welcome indeed, which puts the score up to a 4!) and restaurant area (dogs not allowed) as well as large outdoor seating area with benches that gets the sun until sunset.
Service is nice and prices are good, however I cannot award five stars due to their standard beer lineups, albeit with the occasional bottled beer festivals. I’ve heard they are bringing in craft and cask beer soon — it can’t come soon enough.

Not a bad spot for a few beers. Very spacious with usually a decent clientele. Haven’t eaten here yet, so won’t comment on the food.

This is quite a big pub on the outskirts of East Kilbride that caters for every need. It has a public bar with a pool table in it and they let you take the dog in and you even get a bowl of water. They have big TVs to watch football on too.
The lounge is large and does a comprehensive menu and you can take your children in. They offer table service and have a really good selection.
There is live entertainment available on certain dates. I saw one live band here a few years ago that was very impressive. They have a Robbie Williams impersonator coming soon. I used to be taken here in 1980 by the teachers in my school with other pupils that played Table Tennis and badminton on Wednesday evenings.
There are tables outside for sitting on when the sun comes out.
The service is good and the ambience is very inviting.
