Cafe AINA in Stirling

Amazing food and the staff were very attentive. I would definitely recommend a visit!

Terrific food, friendly staff and very reasonable prices. Thank you x

Brilliant service and even better food!

Wow. What a place. Food was incredible, service was great and very reasonable prices. I’m going to sleep like a baby wrapped in pita tonight.

Really good greek-cypriot restaurant in Stirling. Flavoursome food and friendly service and restaurant being busy. They have changed their menu and offer a variety of Souvlaki with salad options. They do not offer breakfasts anymore. They now also offer alcoholic beverages. Also the coffee n cakes are highly recommended. 😊

Tried it for the first time yesterday, were going to sit in but our 4 week old baby started crying so we decided to get a takeaway, the staff were very accommodating and told us we didn't have to leave but we were too stressed ruining people's dinner haha. My wife's got ceoliac disease so we are all ways wary of trying new places as some places say they are gluten free and it's not but they were great. The food was incredible, I got the chicken gyrosand my wife the Greek loaded fries and chicken souvlaki salad. By the far the best restaurant in stirling.

Really nice tasting coffee and a huge muffin which was really tasty.

The food was amazing. It took a little longer to arrive, but we accidentally came in 20 minutes before opening. The server was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the food on the menu.

He is always magnificent, fresh, well cooked, and with great atmosphere, thank u team aina

Yummy, and great to have a good selection of vegan options

I always make a point of going back here when I'm in Stirling, for it's wonderful combination of friendly and helpful staff, relaxed atmosphere and of course delicious food. It's a firm favourite.

Loved the food will definitely be back

We ate here last night and I have to say the meal and service were outstanding. The food was delicious and decent portion sizes. From the moment we arrived, the waiting staff were very attentive and explained all the options to us and even offered his own recommendations and advice. I would highly recommend this place to anyone wanting really good food in the city center.

Great food, friendly staff, nice environment! Favorite lunch place in Stirling ❤️

A wonderful meal served with plenty of great recommendations, including vegan options. Food was perfect, served quickly and with a wonderful smile and history to the cooking. Thank you!

A fantastic place for a true Greek meal! Delicious food. Lovely helpful staff. Highly recommend this place

This was great. Excellent quality, service, and reasonably priced.

This meal was truly magical! As a vegan they had a great selection of options with roughly half the menu being vegan/veggie. I had the tofu souvlaki which was absolutely delicious and a good level of filling. My friends both really enjoyed their meals too. The desserts went hard too. The service was excellent and our waiter was very friendly. Recommend highly!

The staff is very kind and welcoming and the food is delicious, plenty of choices. We were so hungry that forgot to take pictures of the food. Highly recommend the place and surely we'll be back.

Always excellent service and lovely food. Portions are generous, and it's good value for money.

Definitely in my top 3 best bites in town. Friendly staff, tasty food and nice coffee. They have a very good range of food to choose from, being able to either go for a refreshing light full of taste salad or treat yourself with a tasty chicken gyros with tzatziki sauce. Spanish and English spoken.

Was excellent. I will visit again soon

Great food and friendly service. Kudos to Angelos for providing an excellent service.

Whilst the food was lovely and the service was prompt and polite I caught the chef vaping in the kitchen at least three times directly onto the food he was preparing. Quite an off putting sight after enjoying a nice meal. We won’t be back unfortunately

I have been here several times and ordered a few varieties of their vegan souvlaki - tofu, beetroot, falafel and soya. All delicious but I would say the beetroot is my favourite, closely followed by falafel. Authentic Greek souvlaki, super tasty and always lovely service. They also have lovely vegan cakes 😍

Had my sons 18th birthday dinner here , 17 of us at short notice and the staff gave us a fantastic memorable evening. Empty plates all round , great service and very understanding. Overall a great evening. Cant recommend this restaurant enough. I will revisit. Beef and Lamb sharing kebab was spot on. Dean Foy

Lovely atmosphere and chai latte was very well done!

Great food and the best coffee in town

An absolute MUST when you are in Stirling! One doesn't go here for a fancy restaurant, but for the amazing and fair-priced souvlaki and oregano fries - the food is delicious, the staff is very friendly and the order doesn't take long until it's on your table (free tab water is always brought to you before you order).

Good value and friendly cafe. Could do with an updated interior.

I've eaten here twice recently (for lunch and supper) and both meals were very tasty and the service very good. I would like to see more vegan options on the menu, though. The 2 vegan cookies were delicious, so compliments to the chef.

Service & food is excellent! Would definitely go back.

My first visit since the new menu was introduced and I was not disappointed!! I ordered the chicken gyro, and OMG, can't wait to return! The food was delicious and the service couldn't be faulted. Can't wait to return. Hardest decision now is - do I order what I know or chance something different 🤔

Mmm, Greek kebab was tasty and superb chips. Portions are large! Server was super helpful too.

Nice & friendly service. I love their origano fries and they're at a good price too. 🖐️🖐️🙌😋

Pork souvlaki wrapped in pita was so tasty as well as the Greek salad! My host Angelos provided an excellent customer service with smile and knowledge. The place is very welcoming and cosy. Do not forget to try the handmade orange pie by mama! Thank you so much for this lovely meal and great time!

Great Greek food amazing service and we'll priced

A few weeks ago we ordered delivery from Cafe Aina through Just Eat, and after an hour it hadn’t arrived. We got a call from the guy working there to apologise and say that they hadn’t made our food yet because their stuff was FLOATING AWAY IN A FLOOD. I was like, that’s wild, please don’t worry about it. But the guy still made our food (!) and then when the Just Eat driver couldn’t make the delivery because of, y’know, the flooding, this guy came and delivered it straight to our door to make sure we got it. I didn’t catch his name but what a hero!

Lovely little place. Half way between a restaurant and a cafe, with a definite Mediterranean relaxed vibe. Service excellent, food excellent. Honestly can't wait to go back.

Amazing food all made and served by the same family. Made how they would like it themselves 🥰 Not to bad price either

Excellent food. Very nice cafe, will be back again.

Tolles griechisches Essen. Schöne Auswahl auch für vegetarier. Kann ich sehr empfehlen. Die Preise sind auch absolut angemessen.

This place is so good! Great food.

First visit at the cafe,food was excellent coffee was really good, very friendly staff would recommend this place

Bhot bura ya bhot acha nhi tha. Cheers mate

Good food and nice service! You must try the chocolate cake!

Superbe accueil de dernière minute car un autre restaurant avait annulé notre réservation. Nous avons été heureux de déguster des souvlakis délicieux ! Encore merci pour ce repas de dernière minute et la bonne discussion.

Food was good. Service was excellent.

Bonne cuisine grec aussi a emporter, service aimable et rapide. Tres propre. Decor assez simple mais du coup ca fait encore plus propre.

Wonderful little restaurant. I had the marinated tofu souvlaki and it was flawless! A nice portion size that doesn’t leave you absolutely stuffed, but there is also the option to get a much larger portion if you feel up to the challenge. Loved it, and will be back.

Local sencillo pero comida muy buena a un precio razonable. Lo mejor: EL PERSONAL, amabilísimo y profesional. Muy atentos y simpáticos. Lo menos bueno: el fondo del local debería estar más aseado; cuando vas al aseo, pasas por almacén, cocina, despacho… todo con las puertas abiertas y bastante desorden, que no da muy buena imagen para el cliente. Pero, tanto la comida como los camareros, de 10 !!!!!!!!

A lovely Greek restaurant. Great service makes you feel from home. Food is very nice.

Nice clean cafe. Does a fun Greek take on a traditional breakfast. The falafel was excellent. Service was adequate.

Wonderful fresh food cooked to order.

First time visit .. just pop in store and it’s very clean .. staff is very helpful wonderful experience..

Fantastic food with plenty of veggie and vegan options, the staff couldn't do enough for us - thanks for a great lunch!

Casual atmosphere, friendly and happy staff. Tasty food.

Delicious food, kind staff, great prices.

We visited here after a recommendation from a friend and we were not disappointed. Simple looking venue but the food and service was superb! Ordered two of the small portion wraps and two milkshakes. The food was fresh and made to order. The milkshakes were tasty and fresh too! Staff were polite and professional and created a warming atmosphere. Very reasonably priced menu and can definitely recommend if you want some good food!

Great service. Had the Greek Kebab (lamb & beef), it was ok, could have been more flavourful. Salad dressing for the Halloumi salad was a bit too sweet for my taste and too heavy on the onions. Halloumi fries were incredible. Lentil soup was really good.

I had a Halloumi salad and it was delicious!! Attention was very fast too.

Cena buena, bonita y barata tras visitar el memorable castillo de Stirling. Descubrí el sabroso souvlaki de falafel (puré de garbanzos especiado, con adornos culinarios y envuelto en pan de pita) y mi hijo disfrutó el de cordero. La baklava del postre me conquistó; a veces hago en casa este hojaldre con miel y frutos secos, y la versión del restaurante superó todas mis expectativas. Una cerveza griega puso el broche a una cena muy divertida. ¡Merece probarlo!

Always love this place. Food is fantastic at great prices and always feel welcome. Can totally recommend you give it a try.

Amazing Greek Cypriot “Mediterranean” food!

A REAL Greek (Cyprian) experience, like being back on the islands in the Med. warm friendly local atmosphere thoroughly recommend

Really enjoyed the place, good food and flavours

Extremely kind and thoughtful staff who will make you feel right at home. Food is fresh, quality, and generous portions. We spent £15 for the two of us, which was astonishingly good value for dinner. Great place for people watching or studying; student discounts are offered, too. Will be back on our next visit to Stirling!

Not really to my taste. I was with friends and the place was very cold. This was a few months ago. Not their fault I did not like it. Kebab was not what I thought it would be like. Was more burnt than I expected it to be.

Reasonable priced staff brilliant

Great service and nice staff. Large plate is laaaarge!!!! Be warned 🙂

Cuisine est bonne, intérieur un peu froid et les cuisiners avec leurs musique à fond pas ouf mais bon ça fait le job

Food is slightly salty. It has a very big portion of chips but the meat portion is so so.

Bon rapport quantité/qualité prix ! Poulet très bon malgré qu’il soit un peu sec. Bémol sur les couverts sales et une déco terne.

Ordered take away to be delivered Saturday evening as a treat. Food was lovely. Had a falafel burger and fries. The only thing i would say is cut your falafel burger in half, so you have 2 thinner patties, and eat 1 half separately. I found there to be too much falafel in the burger.

Lovely iced coffee, food, and staff :). Will be back.

It's really nice food. Worth the price 100%. Amazing pita bread - soft inside and crispy outside. Friendly staff

Doesn't look much from the outside, but the TripAdvisor Traveller's Choice awards are in the window for a reason! Service was great, glasses of water brought over as we sat down, and the menu was clearly explained to us. We enjoyed a pork souvlaki and a marinated tofu souvlaki. Both were really fresh, delish and decently sized portions. (Not sure what the tofu was marinated in, but it was gooood!) My Husband enjoyed the Greek coffee, while I recommend the iced decaf coconut latte - finding decaf or a decent dairy free selection can be challenging, so finding both really stood out for me! My only thought for improvement is they need to spruce up their toilets. (That's the only reason I haven't given 5 stars for 'atmosphere'. The food and service is definitely 5 star.)

Original greek food,nice and taste. Amazing smoothies 😋

Great cafe with lovely staff. Clean and friendly atmosphere. We ordered baguette sandwiches which were delicious and a good portion size.

Great experience. Food was delicious and the staff were very friendly. We shared a large salad and had a souvlaki pitta each and were suitably stuffed! We are looking forward to our breakfast visit as that also looks amazing. They have great vegan choices too.

The only Greek restaurant I tried and they are the best at what they are doing. I love all the food they make. The best place to go with friends or family.

Friendly welcome, awesome food, recommend.

Friendly family run business excellent service 👏

Came in for a Souvlaki for lunch and sat in. Food and coffee was wonderful and the staff really friendly - thank you! UPDATE - came back two weeks later for breakfast, was even better than lunch - great omelette and tzakziki on the side - thanks!

Lovely food and service, popped in for a quick lunch and was exceptional, definitely would come back if in Stirling

The food is always good and tasty here

Great place for lunch. A bit more café than restaurant. Staff very friendly. Food very good: "home-made". Could probably offer more extensive menu if aspires to be a restaurant.

Amazing gem in the heart of Stirling. Food was of incredibly high standard and large portions. Staff were jolly and friendly. Very clean. Highly recommend!

Great staff and food is always fresh and tasty..chips are fab

Si vais por stirling por favor pasar por esta cafetería tanto para desayunar como para comer!!!! Aparte que de todo está muy bueno lo mejor de todo es el trato por parte del personal Angelos y Raphael son muy simpáticos y muy atentos no os faltara de nada!! Volveremos sin duda!!!!

Excellent, will definitely be back.

We visited this coffee shop when all the others seemed to be full, this one was empty but we gave it a try, so glad we did, coffee was delicious, didn't have any food, so can't comment on that the staff were welcoming, friendly and helpful.

Delicious chicken souvlaki! Banana milkshake blew my mind

Todo super rico y a buen precio. Había muchísimas opciones veganas y vegetarianas. Las porciones son generosas y el camarero súper simpático

Was recommended this little gem.. and it certainly did not disappoint. Superb, quality, tasty food, and so reasonable priced. Service was just great. Will definitely return again when I'm back in Stirling.

Okay, hands down the best food I had in Scotland! The vegan full English breakfast was soo good. The falafel and everything was totally up to my taste. And the staff was so nice and attentive. Great service and the place looks nice too. All our food was great and we didn't even needed extra salt which is rare with food in the UK. lol I would totally recommend going there, especially if you looking for vegan options. :) If I can I def revisit the place.

There is NOTHING not to love about this place. A child with an anaphylaxis to dairy, and it was taken very seriously (yes some don't) The food was exceptional, the service was even better. Definitely returning here on a regular basis. Thank you for providing a safe place for our family to eat. See you soon. The Oat Milkshakes were a welcome treat a d high recommend.

Love this place. We come at least once a week because they make us feel so welcome with our toddler, even when we're being particularly annoying! Where you'd normally say somewhere has good vegan options this is more like a fantastic vegan menu with really good meaty options. It's ideal to stop for coffee and snacks or have a cheeky glass of really nice wine and a big meal. And to boot it's a totally indie family business.

Κατά την επίσκεψη μας στο Κάστρο τον Αύγουστο το βρήκαμε τυχαία και σαν Έλληνες καθίσαμε για καφέ και φαλαφελ, ήταν τέλεια.

Stopped for lunch, great food and staff pleasant and welcoming. No rush and relaxed
