An amazing long weekend at the Crusoe. The whole crew could not do enough to ensure our stay was thoroughly enjoyable from the spotless room (2), fantastic breakfast, to the evening meals using top quality produce. Super choice of wines and champagnes with a little something extra in their new Whisky and Gin bar! Overall a fantastic experience, we will return.Thanks so much!Lower Largo is beautiful as is the surrounding coastline. We visited their sister pub The Ship at Elie with views to enjoy!Would highly recommend!

My daughter & I had dinner at the Crusoe on Saturday 7th September for my birthday.The venue is stunning in it's venue and it's location, even in the haar, which just made it all the more stunning.Service was phenomenal. Rachel & Alice, in particular, were so welcoming, professional, friendly, super attentive, informative about menu choices and nothing was too much trouble. And always with beautiful smiles.All the staff on the night, at the bar, serving drinks and meals were lovely and made our visit such a delight.As for our food, each and every course was excellent and so delicious.My daughter couldn't decide between two starters and asked of she could have one to start and mussels as her main. Absolutely no problem. She loves mussels and as a coastal rower, has had them all around Scotland, and in her opinion, these mussels were the best she'd ever had. My steak was perfectly cooked and such good quality beef. Every aspect of our dinner was exceptional.We are definitely returning.Well done and thank you so much to all of the wonderful staff.
