Birds and the Bees in Stirling

Been going here for years. Cannot fault the food as it is lovely but the staff totally let the last few visits down. Service got slow after main courses waited ages for plates to get cleared. Asked for a dessert menu and waited 20 minutes for someone to come back and get our order which ended up not happening as we had to go to the bar to pay! Food is great but overall seems staff morale is low.

The Birds and The Bees in Stirling is a delightful restaurant. Set in a beautifully restored old farmstead, the restaurant has a cozy and rustic atmosphere with exposed brick walls, open fires, and eclectic decor. The menu offers a tempting mix of locally and internationally influenced dishes, all prepared with locally sourced produce whenever possible. The dedication to quality is clear in both the flavour and presentation of the food and the exemplary customer service which is welcoming and friendly from the moment you walk in.

Need to book to be sure. Decent place with a typical 'pub' menu. Partner loved her prawn fajitas that were not short of prawns with a thick tomato/spicy sauce kick. Sweet potato fries ere very good. Burger and chips also good but the burger was a little salty and couldn't be cooked as 'medium' only well done - shame, as the quality of a good, fresh home made burger would allow this. Onion rings went down well.

From the moment of our walk in we were greeted by the staff and seated after only a few minutes wait whilst our table was cleared. Service was prompt and the menu a good choice of food, myself having the Haggis for starters and Lamb Shank for a main. Food was hot and cooked thoroughly, with the Lamb Shank falling of the bone as expected. Staff smartly dressed giving the whole feel of professionalism. Good selection of draught ales, including Guinness, also a wide variety of Whiskeys if that’s your pleasure. Well done to all at The Birds and Bees, as a visitor from England you have not disappointed, definitely be back the next time we’re in Stirling. 10/10.

Good quality food served by friendly and helpful staff. Extensive menu. Booking is recommended as it does get very busy at peak times.

Visited here today as a group of 6. The food was beautiful and very tasty. Yes, it’s not the cheapest around but it’s worth every penny of what we paid. Staff very friendly and attentive. I would definitely recommend.

Myself, husband and 4 children ate here on 17th August, and we are all in agreement that everything was fantastic. Great service and lovely food. Friendly staff a big shout out to the manager, we're here on holidays and he gave us great advice and tips on places to visit. Kids menu had a fantastic choice, and my husband, who's gluten intolerant, was very impressed with the gluten-free menu and beer. Highly recommend.

Excellent menu with lots of choice. Seated at a lovely table, nice service and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. Will recommend and return.

A big thank you to Danny and the team for lunch. The front of house staff were friendly and helpful. Thank you to the kitchen staff for cooking delicious lunch - you nailed it!!! The meal was reasonably priced. Very impressed with the variety of dishes on vegan menu (you need to ask the staff for a vegan menu).

Good dinner. My filet was great. My husband was not very satisfied with lamb’s shank, anyway was good.starters not great. I took calamari with pepper and I had them fried!!!

After a mess up with the booking twice the Manager was very helpful and got us a table, we sat inside and ordered drinks a pint of Lime and soda could not taste the Lime I had J2o good, we ordered Chilli was not told it was hot which it was hubby could no finish his meal I had King Prawn Fajitas which were nice spicy as well a bit disappointed the lady that served us was polite so was the Manager

Very attractive and good restaurant at the outskirts of Stirling. The staff is very supportive and we got our table earlier than expected. The food was excellent (lamb skank and salmon).

My girlfriend and I are on a mini break in Sterling. The barman at the hotel recommend The Birds and the Bees. Wow! The service was fast and friendly. We ordered steak. Mine was medium rare, my GF's was well done. Both were fantastic. Cooked really well, and very tasty. I'd recommend the rib eye with whiskey, onion and haggis sauce. The place had a nice atmosphere too. Worth the trip from Middlesbrough!

Haggis soup WOW first time tried it excellent Tempura prawns as excellent as everChicken Escosse was WOW Sea Bass amazing The two girls that served us were fantastic one of the girls remembered from before as she recognised my hubbies Red gottie when he had his 60th last year Birds and bees excellent first class as usual Thank You

I know it was mothers day yesterday, and appreciate the restaurant being busy. But the service was terrible. We booked a table for 3pm, we still hadn't received our starters at the back of 4. Eventually they cleared the table, and we had to ask an hour later where our mains were. They hadn't put our mains through so had to wait longer. I complained to the manager, he was apologetic and offered a free round of drinks. They took about half an hour to bring a diet irn bru. The food was amazing but the service not good at all. Also, when we were sat waiting for a long time, we decided because it was such a nice day, to go out in the external seating area to enjoy our drinks in the sun, and i went to check several times if our starters had came, when they did, the lady was absolutely annoyed that we were not sitting at the table when she brought them. The attitude of the staff was shocking. Wont be back, wouldn't recommend here ever.

I have visited here twice on my visit over from Germany and both visits have been excellent. Staff are very friendly and very helpful. Now for the food first visit Chicken Ecosse =Chicken breast on a bed of haggis with a delicious pepper sauce most enjoyable and tasty tasty. My visit today I decided to have the haggis nachos wow a taste explosion and a generous portion for a starter, baked potato for my main was yummy just the right size after nachos. Seating is good comfortable chairs inside and a large seating area outside for sunny days. Parking area is available. I will be back here on my next visit to Bonnie Scotland.

It was supposed to be a happy Mother's Day meal out. instead it turned into a finger tapping and bad tempered afternoon. Service was as slow as it could be. Over an hour until any food arrived. And on the adjacent table they waited 1 hour and 35 minutes. There was an under-current of discontent as people waited for meals which were no arriving.I understand that it was Mother's Day, and a big pay-day for hospitality. So very busy. But if you take my booking, and charge me over £80, I expect a reasonable product.When I spoke to the lady-owner, she said they had been busy, and she was disappointed I felt the way I did. as though someone else sitting twiddling their thumbs might have felt differently. I didn't ask for a refund, and none was offered, but I feel some sort of "gesture", such as £20 off the bill might have smoothed matters.When the food did arrive, the roast beef and the halibut were OK, but the belly pork was a miserly portion in relation to the beef, and the mash had so much mustard it it was sickening.And the moral of this? Don't go to the Birds and Bees when they are busy, which is quite often. And if you do go, do not expect any sympathy when you complain.

Thoroughly recommend a visit here. Staff efficient and friendly and nothing too much trouble. Food delicious, varied menu and fast service. Thank you.

Bought halloumi fries from the place and they charged £2 for each fry. They also charged a fiver for a bottle of bottom-shelf cider. Would avoid.

We visited with friends at the weekend, couldn’t really fault the food, however the service wasn’t good… my husband ordered a steak, and they didn’t bring the chips to go with it, we had to chase them for those, we weren’t offered any condiments, we had to chase the staff to get more drinks, and then again for a steak knife xx They would literally rush away before we could finish asking for things, which resorted in us keep having to call them back, it was getting ridiculous! Then we were asked about dessert when plates were cleared, menus were brought but. But nobody came back, half an hour later someone came to ask and we decided the service was that poor we wouldn’t bother spending any more money on food and drinks in the place. Won’t rush back sadly.

The ambience of the restaurant is wonderful. It’s unusual quirky and has a lovely warmth about it. I ordered nachos and fish and chips and my companion had Brie followed by steak pie. We both ate every last scrap. The good was really quick, red hot, beautifully presented and just tasted great. It was made with clearly very fresh ingredients and it all tasted very home made, nothing out if a packet etc, even home made salsa and tartar sauce. The big surprise was the bill, it was a heck of a lot lower than we expected based on what we had and how good it was, we were really impressed. Added to that the service was impeccable, especially from Danny and Emma, we did promise to mention them in exchange for extra pieces of tablet lol

Consistently nice food and service. Always feel welcome and nothing's too much trouble here. Will definitely be back.

My niece was celebrating her birthday and a family meal was booked at The Birds and The Bees. As I live in Cyprus I was not able to attend but telephoned and spoke with Danny to enquire if I could pay for a bottle of bubbly to be taken to their table with best wishes from my husband and I. Danny could not have been more friendly and helpful. He kindly said it would be no problem and agreed to deliver the bottle to the table with a lovely message. He was lovely to speak to and is a great credit to his employers as well as valuing customers and treating them so well. When we next visit Stirling we shall definitely pay a visit. I know my family will have a wonderful night, with great service and delicious food! Thank you again Danny

We had this lunch booked for ages for a retirement lunch. When we arrived table wasn’t even set up for us. Service was very slow we felt forgotten most of the time. The only good thing was the food which we couldn’t fault.

Best restaurant in Bridge of Allan for a family meal! Varied and affordable menu with something for everyone. Super friendly staff. Definitely recommend.

Saturday 11th December. 19 of us had a lovely afternoon and a beautifully cooked and presented meal. Lovely staff. Good atmosphere. Great value.

Excellent menu for Xmas lunch. Meals delivered hot and absolutely delicious. Terrific ambience and service was excellent.

Arrived for dinner with a friend. We were given set menu. After asking if we could have a la carte menu was told this stopped at 6pm. Was not told this when booking ordered off the set menu as there was no alternative however during the evening watched numerous tables being delivered food from main menu on asking waitress why we weren't offered this choice after specifically asking was told they were pushing set menu as per instructions by the owners and offering main menu to those who threatened to leave. Very disappointed

Booked the restaurant over the phone for 9 people over the phone. For my dad’s 60th. We’ve come through from Edinburgh to eat here just to be turned away! Disgraceful! We’re now struggling to find somewhere to eat!

Vistited this restaurant a couple of weeks ago in a large family group of 10 plus a dog. We were delighted with everything: food, service, ambience, setting. We entered by the beautiful outside terrace into the bar area which had a welcoming real fire going, we were taken to our table and loved the many artefacts placed around adding to the atmosphere. Spetacural setting against the backdrop of the strikingly beautiful Ochils bathed in a soft, golden amber light as the sun was going down.

Tucked away in a residential area of Stirling this pub is so worth finding - and has a well deserved entry in CAMRA'S Good Beer Guide. Lovely dining area with views from some tables over the surrounding countryside. Now for the real deal! The haddock and chips was the best I have had bar none and the beer batter melted in your mouth making every mouthful a delight! The staff were super friendly and welcoming and happy to advise on menu choices. My wife enjoyed the equally delicious Chicken in pink peppercorn sauce. This pub is only a few minutes away from the local landmark which is the National Wallace Monument which I would recommend you climb to before lunch rather than after! Definitely worth finding and we will return for sure another time. Thank you.

We had one of the best meals ever today not far from Wallace Monument. Not exactly somewhere you’ll find easily but well worth checking this place out. One of the most flavoursome Steaks cooked to perfection well done to the Chef and the Team at the Birds and the Bees all of our food was outstanding but those who had steak out numbered the rest of us with their 10 out of 10 remarks so we’ve highlighted it as AMAZING. Can’t wait to return and the team at the Birds and the Bees should be well and truly proud of themselves. Thanks Guys.

A big Thank You to Danny and the team for their welcome, warmth and hospitality (towards both humans and canine) tonight. An equally big thank you to the kitchen, as our Jambalaya was spot on and didn't skimp on the chicken and prawns! There were a lot of potential choices for us on the extensive menu and it's a real shame that we're only in Stirling for the one night on this trip.Please don't abuse their hospitality by bringing a badly behaved or overly boisterous pooch though!

We had a lovely dinner here, sitting outside with the wonderful views of Stirling Castle and the Wallace monument. Service was lovely and the food was really good.

Met up with family members for a late lunch. Service was excellent and the food, although pub fare and nothing exceptional choice wise, was well cooked and nicely presented. Would probably not dash back but worth visiting again if in the area.

First time but will be my last.Got the sirloin rost dinner, was mostly fat not sure the roast potatoes weren't frozen. Husband got scampi it wasn't the best but the better of the two meals.I made a complaint to the waiter after eating what I could, and the only reason I ate it was because I was starving. And I didn't want to wait any longer for food.Not a thing taken off the bill, wait for it because I had eaten what I could of the terrible meal.So not good customer service.

This was recommended by the owner of the B&B we were staying at and it was within walking distance so we thought we'd give it a whirl.The location is very pleasant, overlooking fields and the place itself is rather nice too.When we arrived it was quite busy with what seemed to be a birthday group, but they left not long after we arrived so it quieted off.The food was good, I had the Satay Chicken strips, although I must say I couldn't taste any peanut in my Satay sauce! My wife had Chicken Fajitas and there was probably enough in her portion to feed the two of us! On the whole, much better than your standard pub fayre and not too expensive.

We have not been up to Scotland since the beginning of Covid. We last ate here Feb 2020 and thoroughly enjoyed it.If the very kind actions of the staff today are a reflection of the on- going service, you will be in good hands. Gary kindly ensured a voucher was delivered to our brother in law in time for his 70th birthday. Many Thanks.

Staying at a nearby B&B, we wandered along to see if they could get us a table. Despite not booking and it being really busy they managed to get us a table outside. The view from the terrace is lovely- a field full of jersey cows and nosy sheep with Ben Ledi and Ben Vorlich off in the distance. We ordered steak pie and chicken with haggis. Food was good- good portions and tasty. Service was great- staff really welcoming and helpful.

Visited here not that long ago with my girlfriend and her husband, brilliant food, made an absolute mess of the steak pie, accidentally spilled my fruit shoot on the plate resulting in a concoction of blackcurranty steak gravy, still thoroughly enjoyed it,feel bad for the poor little kitchen porter that needs to clean that up, bombsite on a plate,

Celebrated my sons graduation here today and what an amazing day they gave us. We were anxious as it was the first family get together since restrictions had been eased but really needn’t have worried. The day ran smoothly and the staff looked after us very well. Nothing was any trouble. The message from all the family was that their food was amazing. A big thank you to everyone who looked after us this afternoon but most especially to Michelle for all her help with the organisation of the day.

Went here for lunch and cannot fault it, the food and service was amazing. The pub itself is so quirky and the fact they are dog friendly was a bonus. Will definitely be returning.

Visited on my own. Despite being the only person in, the four staff shared jokes between themselves for at least two minutes before one finally asked if I would like a drink. I was not asked if I'd like another drink despite sitting with a near empty glass for around 10 minutes, baffling when you'd think maximising revenue would be a priority after so long in lockdown. Unfortunately this type of service is typical in the Bees where the staff are less than attentive and was the same pre-COVID. A QR code ordering system would improve the experience.

The Birds and Bees accommodated my family at short notice for a meal after my daughters Christening. They provided a fantastic function room for us with access to a beautiful outdoor area. The waiters and waitresses were outstanding in attending to the needs of the party and the food was first class - reflected by the raving reviews of our friends and family on the day. We cannot thank the team at the Birds and Bees enough for being so welcoming and professional. We thoroughly recommend this restaurant for anyone looking for delicious food and friendly service in the Stirling area.

Tucked away down a side road this Pub/Restaurant has all that is needed for a couple/family/group to have a meal or drinks. Good sized menu and service to match it.

I wish this place was our local - what a gem of a place!!Lovely restaurant/pub very well set out for covid and staff following the rules properly. We sat outside for a drink first - excellent service from the staff nothing was a problem.We then went inside to eat - it's a lovely restaurant the decor is lovely as was the delicious food. Couldn't fault the place, food or service. Thank you for a lovely evening and if we're ever back in Stirling you will be seeing us again.

After almost a year and a half of not being able to get together, a group of choir ladies met here for lunch. We were giddy with excitement at seeing each other and being able to eat something that had been prepared by someone else! The service was friendly, food excellent, generously propotioned and good value for money.We've been before and are just thrilled to be back!

After being let down for birthday celebrations dinner and drinks we thought we’ll try the B&theBees, they managed to get us in and have to say, they went beyond themselves for us, dinner was exceptional, the drinks were as required and the service was first class as usual.The atmosphere was great even though we were crawling out of the shambles of “lockdown”I simply can’t recommend this place enough. I wish we lived closer than 5 miles away.

Believe it or not we had booked elsewhere tonight for my daughter’s birthday, only to roll up in a taxi and the place was closed. Immediately contacted the Birds and Bees explained the situation and were told absolutely no problem we will look after you, come along.Honestly, the staff could not do enough. They were fantastic from start to finish. An absolute credit to the Birds and Bees. The food was out of this world and that’s high praise as my husband is the fussiest person on earth when it comes to this. A huge thank you to all for making our night and saving our daughter’s birthday.

On arrival the staff were friendly but after we had received our food weren't very attentive. We ordered a side of chips that never came. I had fajitas which was mostly peppers and onions, not much chicken could be found and small wraps which could hardly fit anything in fairly average for 14 quid. It's a nice pub with a nice outside seating area and a lot of room inside just dissapointes with my food if I'm honest.

5 of us visited this restaurant on 9th May. The staff were great, the atmosphere was nice. Very welcoming. You must try the Haggis soup. All our mains were excellent. Thank you Birds and Bees.

Fantastic meal and service as usual, by far the best place to eat locally. Great food, amazing staff.

Thr Birds and the Bees looked like a nice restaurant from outside but looked a bit dated and worn on the inside.. Electric mixture of things around us.The place was so cold, we were sat at a table next to a constantly opening door, asked to be moved and they happily moved us. Most people inside sat with jackets on. The temperature made it hard to relax, told fire could not be put on. As staff were running around busy I am sure they were warm, but no heat for patrons.My friends enjoyed their food, mine was ok. Good portions though. Staff were very busy and very helpful, though it did d take a while for them to bring water for my friend's guide dog. I do feel a bit disappointed that my first lunch out was here. It was just so flippin cold inside. I get that it's first day back and I have no complaints with staff or even the food. Just think of your patrons comfort with heating.

Reservamos una mesa para cenar, cuando llegamos nos preguntaron si era solo para tomar algo o para comer, hmmm. Nos sentamos cerca de la puerta del patio y pedí que me cambiaran si estaba en uso, nos aseguraron que no lo estaba, últimas palabras famosas. . .La comida estaba bien si cumplías con la norma, pero el servicio era lento. Es hermano Gastropub, el Torbrax fue superior.

Visited here for my dad's birthday. Starters and mains were were both very good. My fish and chips we're excellent. All of our group thoroughly enjoyed their food. Service was very good as well

4 of us came for lunch, was our first time and will be back! Food was lovely great portions on all dishes, lovely clean building with friendly staff, keep up the good work!

Vine aquí para almorzar como se recomendó, delicioso. Teníamos gambas tempura, pescado y patatas fritas y tarta de queso dulce de azúcar que estaba fuera de este mundo. ! ! La mejor tarta de queso que he probado. El personal es muy amable y tiene un ambiente agradable y acogedor. ¡Definitivamente regresaré, gracias!

The beer garden was beautiful as the weather was so nice. Me and my friend stayed for a few drinks and dinner. The good was fantastic and the service was good. The measure put in place for Covid were to a high standard too.

Todo el personal fue muy amable y el servicio fue rápido. El ambiente era acogedor y la comida excelente. Mi pareja y yo estábamos de visita en Stirling y estábamos buscando un lugar para cenar, pero también tendría que ser apto para perros. Hicimos la reserva y una vez que llegamos allí nos llevaron inmediatamente a nuestra mesa. Todos fueron muy serviciales e incluso trajeron un cuenco de agua para nuestro perro. La cerveza y la sidra eran geniales y la comida deliciosa. Probamos las croquetas de haggis como entrante, que eran increíbles y yo tenía el pollo y el tocino en una cama de haggis que estaba absolutamente delicioso. Mi compañero tenía pescado y patatas fritas y dijo que realmente lo disfrutó. En general, disfrutamos mucho de la noche y definitivamente lo recomendaríamos.

¡Debes comer el bistec! Perfectamente cocinado a la perfección. ¡Nos comimos los cuatro!Reservamos varias veces durante el plan del gobierno. Los estándares de servicio eran excelentes, el personal era amable y servicial. Realmente no me puedo quejar del lugar.Soy muy quisquilloso y odio, odio, odio el mal servicio y la comida. Se podría decir que soy difícil de complacer. Bird's and Bee's es excelente. Tienen un gran chef y un personal a la altura.Tienen una preciosa zona de estar al aire libre y una zona exterior cubierta en la parte trasera del edificio. También permiten el ingreso de perros, lo cual es una ventaja para nosotros ya que este es nuestro local.Esperamos nuestra próxima visita

Gorgeous meal for my birthday, the pork ribs were just delicious. Lovely staff and well laid out tables.

Beef enchiladas were great - chicken enchiladas were unfortunately below average. An interesting setting, very cosy inside. Recommend booking as it was quite busy.

El entorno en el que se encuentran los pájaros y las abejas tiene unas vistas panorámicas muy bonitas. En nuestra visita solo para bebidas, encontramos que estaba excepcionalmente ocupado, tanto que tuvimos que sentarnos afuera en la terraza delantera. El servicio fue lento con varias mesas a nuestro alrededor esperando 10 - 15 minutos solo para tomar el pedido y ser servido con sus bebidas. Probablemente solo recomendaría este lugar como restaurante y no como bar para tomar solo bebidas.

Fantastic place for lunch or dinner. Great menu & consistently great food & great service. Highly recommend the chicken satay, burgers & fish & chips! Lunch in the beer garden on a sunny day is lovely.

We went out for dinner at the Birds & Bees partly to benefit from the Chancellor's largesse but mainly for a romantic dinner and were not disappointed on either count. I started with Creamy Garlic Mushrooms and my partner had Tempura Prawns which were both good. We followed this with Chicken with a Brandy Peppercorn sauce (good and peppery) and Vegetable Enchiladas (succulent and a large portion!). Neither of us could manage a dessert! Great meal and excellent service.

Cosy and fine food! Nice interior and friendly staff. The food is great and very tasteful and the menu has something to offer to all types of guests. The restaurant feels like home

The food here has never changed, its always been excellent always fresh, always just spot on. My wife loves the macaroni cheese with bacon we travel from the other side of Scotland to get it !!and the steak is lovely too. Staff are great, very friendly and attentive but not overly so , they have the perfect balance of relaxed atmosphere but also attentive. We’ve come here many times over twenty years and wont stop until the staff do, the food is awesome and we cant recommend his place enough. Haggis is great for a starter, along with the feta cheese main course we had steak pie which was brilliant and macaroni cheese ( the wife’s favourite)

First meal out since lock down and very pleased with the service and the food. Large-ish family get together but food arrived quickly and as expected. All hygiene measures in place and being followed. Great service and great food as always.

Don’t eat for a good few hours before going to the Birds and the Bees, and don’t plan to do much afterwards......big big portions! The starters of haggis and of mozzarella were very good, mains of vegey tortilla and of steak were also very good but huge portions! No room for pud. Attentive and friendly staff, and good to be in a busy restaurant again.

We were lucky to have a decent day so we sat outside on the patio. We were slightly early for our noon reservation but it wasn't an issue. The service was excellent as was the food. Would definitely go back.

Hidden in a residential area this bar was a gem. We had a fantastic dinner, big portions, food delicious. The staff were very friendly. Great ambience. Well organised with covid regulations. We will definitely be back

It was Mother’s Day only 2 days after the Corona Virus closed all pubs & restaurants. I’m sure the Birds & Bees had a lot of tables booked for that day, but very quickly they turned things round and produced an excellent carry out menu. We were treated to one of these meals, delivered to the door, at the arranged time, all piping hot and with Mother’s day good wishes. Well done Birds & Bees. Stay safe and I hope you all survive.

Went for a Christmas lunch with colleagues and in spite of time of year the waitresses did a grand job of keeping things going when very busy. Everting though the food was tasty and well presented but I felt it wasn’t quite as good as last year, when we had gone for a similar works lunch event

We have eaten here a few times, and the food is always really good. The portions are generous and the service is excellent.We ate at lunchtime and I had the chicken satay, which was spectacular! My husband had a burger and my mum had the battered haddock, both of which were delicious.The Birds and the Bees have a lovely lunchtime menu, the food is delicious and the service is excellent.Highly recommended, as is their other restaurant, the Torbrex Inn.

We just had a meal here with my family for my father's birthday and it was nothing short of fantastic! The atmosphere was so cosy and friendly. We felt so comfortable the entire time. The service was quick and attentive. We were made to feel very well looked after all night. The food was amazing. We had the sharing platter and nachos for starts which were amazing for the prize. We had the chicken satay, enchiladas, steak and the duck special.they were all so good! Yummy food and plentiful portions. We still found room for dessert too though. So good!! They even put a candle in the dessert for the birthday such a lovely surprise. All in all such a good night and birthday was much enjoyed!!! Will definitely be back.

In the restaurant and hotel trade in Scotland it is indeed a treat to be hosted by locals and experience the banter . Combined with the superb dining experience the staff were a treat.

This place is friendly, serves delicious food and the staff are delightful. We can highly recommend this place for food mmmmm

Nos paramos en este encantador restaurante de camino al monumento Wallace. La atención fue muy buena sobretodo con los niños, que se encontraron muy a gusto y disfrutaron de la comida. Todo muy delicioso! Disfrutamos de pollo al curry y estofado de venado. A los niños los sorprendieron con un helado cubierto de mini nubes!

I have occasionally visited the pub on and off for a couple of decades now. I remember it from years back and have watched the changes. I hadn't been for approx 2 years & thought we'd have lunch this Sunday. The place was very busy but the service was good and we didn't need to wait too long for food when ordered. i had to ask for the vegan menu as this wasn't offered on our arrival but that's a minimal point. There isn't the warm, cozy atmosphere it used to have and I missed that, but the food was nice and tasty. There was a variety of the usual pub type choices & meat eaters will have plenty to choose from. Vegans/vegetarians, not so much, but there is enough if it's only a random visit. Vegans might struggle if it was more regular and you like varied choices. The chef was very accommodating and will add/alter ingredients if there are particular needs. The seats are a little uncomfortable for long stays but okay for an hour or two. Very friendly, helpful staff. A well deserved 4 stars from me and i would happily recommend a visit.

Can’t fault it....lovely staff, quick service, food fab. Definitely recommend and will be back again

Situated in a rural farmhouse that was absorbed by the growth of the city, this is certainly not only one of the best restaurants in the area, but one of the best pubs. The customer service is perfect, food, wine, beers and malt whiskeys are very good. The atmosphere and decor were perfect. Given the location, central strip of Scotland, the specialty of the house was the meat and vegetables like mushrooms. It is one of the favorite places to by the locals, which is not surprising. Their facilities are huge, and is a place for weddings and celebrations. It is divided into several dining and bar areas, where we can eat more casual food or just enjoy a drink.

Although the decor of this Restaurant/Pub tries a bit too hard to be "rustic",the service and the food were good,staff were helpful and friendly,and prices were not too expensive.All in all would return if in the area.

It isn’t often that all 9 of us go out for dinner and agree that it was excellent. Really good food, warm welcome from Christie. The team were very hospitable, professional and great service all round. Highly recommend

Visited last Monday ,few drinks and a nice meal in this lovely pub.Beer was well kept and our food was delicious.All the staff we met where friendly and welcoming,would definitely return when next in the area,hope you enjoyed your xmas party last Tuesday

the usual mundane pub grub and not very appetising. Done on the cheap. We had not been there for a few years and were disappointed by the menu and the food and the presentation. expensive pub grub in a grim atmosphere.

Geweldige ervaring! Mooi authentiek interieur, zeer aangenaam, kindvriendelijk personeel.Uitstekende keuken! Steak perfect naar wens gebakken (wat in UK al eens kan tegenvallen). Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar.

Service was very slow although not that busy. Reordered drinks and they took forever to arrive. There was 2 adults and one child and when it came to paying, we were charged for '4' adult meals. Then we informed the staff that the child meal and drink was one price, he had to amend the bill again. We will not be returning

Had meal here with friends! Nice varied menu at reasonable prices. The staff were lovely, the meal was great with cosy surroundings. Parking is good with car park to side or spaces out front on road.

This restaurant/pub has seating for crowds and it's needed as the locals know where to eat and celebrate. The food was tasty, filling, and quick to arrive. There is a large selection of scotches for sampling. The decor is rustic as one would expect in a converted farm building but the interior is nicely appointed. Highly recommend

My local. A great dog friendly pub/restaurant. Food is good but I don't think home made. Sometimes service for food can be a bit slow. Usual has a couple of good real ales. Overall I love the place.

Lovely ambience, food, prices and great service. The only let down was the cleanliness of the toilets. Could be checked and cleaned on an hourly basis.

Birds and bees never fail to impress with fantastic food and friendly staff. Had my mum and dad over from Ireland and we had a great meal. Highly recommended and all the food is lovely with a great choice for all tastes.

We ventured to stirling for a Christmas night out, myself and my partner waited almost 35 mins before someone took our drinks order and waited a ridiculous amount of time between courses...my main course being cold (jambalaya) and was total gloop.Staff were pleasant enough but far too busy and distracted with other duties. The food had been recommended to us as being “amazing” and a must out of the restaurants in Stirling by friends and I was very disappointed with our experience here as it looked lovely online and aesthetically however it is understaffed and overrated.

I recently went to a Christmas part night here. I was very impressed. Food was lovely and served fast even tho it was full. I have never had beef as nice as I had here. Staff where warm and welcoming and nothing was to much hassle for them. Great dj. Lovely and clean. Can’t wait for my next visit. Well done to all staff and esp the manager Danny for making my party feel so welcomed.

Having previously had great meals in the Birds and the Bees, I was looking forward to lunch today. We had booked table for 3pm. Arrived to be told that someone would be with us in just a second. 5 minutes later waitress took our name and came back to say manager was just sorting our table. 15 minutes later someone else came back to take the name of the booking. A very mumbled apology from manager that he thought someone was seeing to us despite us.

The most exhilarating full stop at the end of a most terrible road trip.

9 of my friends and me went for dinner the other night. We had such a good meal for a decent price, we got served by the smiliest happiest waitress I think her name was Hannah and had a great night!

Had a really good meal here did in the party. All meals brought out piping hot service good food very tasty. Will go again .

Great atmosphere with friendly helpful staff. Lots of choice on the menu and everyone found a meal they liked
