text: Went to the Hawes Inn for dinner and it was fine but not good enough that you would be rushing backnnThe food is quite typical pub fare fish chips pies etc I had the scampi which was pretty decent and the steak pie also looked quite nice there is a comfort factor in knowing what you are going to get with pub food and in this respect it did not disappointnnThe service was not quite so good our waitress was lovely but seemed to be the only one working across the restaurant area so attracting attention was always a hassle This becomes frustrating when you have to wait for the menus then wait to order then wait for your bill nnIf I was planning to come to South Queensferry for a meal I would try to book into Orocco Pier along the road or one of the other restaurants in the High Street rather than the Hawes Inn however as a backup it is handy to have
