Chez Roux in Stirling

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was excellent and the staff are just fabulous. Our 4th time and it won’t be the last

Beautiful surroundings with excellent service and furnishings. The menu was varied although the dessert menu was very limited. The ambience was spoiled by the strong smell of cooking fish during our meal even though we were not too near the open kitchen.

Dined here a couple of evenings while resident in the hotel. Service outstanding. Although the menu is limited we thoroughly enjoyed our choice and 3 course meals each evening. Particularly liked how as a couple you are not seated too close to other diners.

Small number of choices on the menu. Compared to when we were last here about a year ago. This can be a good sign but wasn’t this time. My guess is that the current chefs don’t have a full set of capabilities for short notice choice. Good sized portions but not the same quality of taste - in our view.

No ambiance, paper napkins. Not 5* Dessert was cold, forgot to give bread with cheese platter. Kitchen was open plan, but no enthusiasm from chefs. Felt like a cafe. Restaurant does not match hotel.. Wouldn’t return.

As always the is exceptional and the service excellent.Prices are getting a bit steep on average £35 for a main course and £15 for starters and desserts.

We have always experienced top quality service, atmosphere and food at Cromlix House whenever we have visited. Over the past five years, we had visited Cromlix for lunch, afternoon tea and an overnight stay. It was because of our positive prior experiences, and it being a perfect location for a small wedding, coupled by what we deemed to be competitive prices for a five star venue, that we held our wedding at Cromlix in May 2022. The organisation of the day, with the aid of the in-house events coordinator and their team, was efficient and effortless. The day ran smoothly and any queries were addressed quickly. Nothing appeared to be an issue for the Cromlix team. We ate an evening meal in the Garden Room the day before the wedding, which was from the a la carte menu, and the food and wine was exceptional. The food that we had chosen for our set wedding menu was also exquisite in flavour and presentation. Using a frozen hollowed blood orange half as a bowl for our lychee sorbet (palate cleanser) was innovative - it was a great talking point. We received numerous compliments from our guests on the food. Cromlix catered for dietary requirements with ease and the food that these guests received looked equally incredible. I could not recommend Cromlix enough for any occasion. My one very small gripe would be the lack of built-in sound system. Nevertheless, they have a portable bluetooth speaker. I would recommend using this if you're having a private meal in the Garden Room for enjoying background music.

We ate here for the first time at lunchtime today and the meal itself lived up to all expectations. It was our 40th anniversary and we were excited to be going for a special meal. The service, though, spoiled the experience: arriving at 1.30, we were told to sit in the bar where nobody acknowledged or came near us for around 15 minutes to take a drinks order (even although there were plenty of staff milling around) and our drinks took another 10 mins to arrive. Then we were given the menu and eventually we were invited to sit at our table 45 minutes after arriving. In short, the food was great but the experience was let down by the service and the feeling that we weren't that important as customers.

Visited as a group of 4 adults and 2 children. Nice venue (preferred the lounge area to the actual dining room though) and child friendly. Starters and mains were good, desserts not so strong. Overall though, we enjoyed our visit.

Visited for Sunday lunch. Staff were outstanding- knowledgeable and friendly. Well presented and excellently prepared lunch befitting of the standard of the surroundings. Really relaxed ( not stuffy) .

Excellent food, superbly cooked and beautifully presented! Crispy parcel of spiced stone bass, ham hock terrine with home made piccalilli, roast loin of roe deer (no knife needed!), pan seared fillet of halibut. Top quality ingredients with wonderfully matched vegetables, herbs and spices to let the stars of the show really shine. Bonus of a tiny chocolate muffin on a "happy birthday" decorated plate for Mum's 80th Culinary HEAVEN!

Strong smell of chip shop fat smell on arrival which we got used to! Cafeteria feeling with lots of afternoon tea guests while we had lunch, paper napkins, tables not cleared when guests left, our glasses not cleared when empty but surprisingly they tried to clear our table with one guest still eating!, staff uniforms from a jumble sale (when I told the Ayrshire waiter that he was missing a button on his waistcoat he said yes! I guess he can’t sew!). Sparkling water from Wales when Scotland’s Highland Spring is along the road! Apparently Mr Roux chooses the water and only Welsh is good enough! - strange that Scottish water isn’t good enough when he claims he tries to use local ingredients when he can. But the staff said he only visits every two years! We asked who the maitre d’ is and the waiter didn’t know the term so had no idea who it is! Coffee cups put down as they were no effort to set them with the handle correctly positioned…..When we asked for the bill, we had to wait ages and then a further 15 minutes for the card machine. On the bright side - the staff were friendly and so I can only put it down to a serious lack of training. The food was fine but not wow - the ham hock terrine was lacking in taste and the fish in pastry starter with rice was nice but large. We all had the roe deer which was nice but by that time we were in cafe experience mode and so it was difficult to wow us. Puddings were fine but I struggled to taste the Baileys in the Bailey’s ice cream. £320 for 4 of us in a chippy smelling cafe environment with pleasant but poorly trained staff - no thank you - we won’t be back and don’t recommend you waste your money - continue along the road to Gleneagles. Disappointing - as we only went because we’re Andy fans and assumed that the Roux brand would be quality. Apparently the staff are from a separate management company - ICMI - so I think Murray and Roux really need to ask if they’re good enough for their names!

We went as a family recently and enjoyed the experience. The food was very tasty and the extensive drinks menu was very interesting. We have to say however that we were disappointed to only have a choice of three starters and three main courses on the menu, we thought that the menu would have been slightly more extensive.

Lovely atmosphere in the restaurant, attentive without being obtrusive staff, excellent food, what more needs to be said? Loved the fact that we could choose from either menu and have dishes from both if we wished. Just delicious.

The food here was fantastic, also the team at Chez Roux are extremely helpful and attentive. I would definitely go back if in the area.

From the moment we arrived for lunch and until we left everything was outstanding. All the staff were very welcoming, professional and engaging. Originally booked for Christmas Day but due to a booking system error our booking was changed to Christmas Eve, but on arrival the complimentary glasses of Champagne arranged by Lauren more than made up for it. We really enjoyed our meal each course was First Class and cannot praise the chefs enough, one of the best meals we have ever had. Well done to all the staff at Cromlix a truly amazing Christmas Eve experience, we are really looking forward to staying at Cromlix in March 2022 and to another superb meal.

Booked our table in September, at which time the website stated a Festive Menu, as well as the a la carte would be served, but discovered when we arrived that this was not the case. A festive menu will only be served from Christmas Eve...

Small menu, perfectly formed. Staff were excellent. The Cromlix Hotel has been renovated, new modern restaurant facilities added but old world feel of previous hotel retained. Total joy.

I came here to treat my Mum for lunch and what a treat it was. From start to finish we were made to feel so welcome by the staff. The food was ace! So we’ll cooked and the wine we had with it was perfect....

Having dined in the Chez Roux restaurant a number of years ago we were looking forward to returning but noticed a change in the menu. More limited choice than before. However the food was excellent. The only disappointing aspect was the service. We were shown...

Was so looking forward to our visit as part of quarterly catch-up with our ‘foodie’ friends. Champagne cocktails were warm…. Menu choice limited ….in comparison with the extremely extensive wine list . Food tasty had to be eaten quickly as not that warm. Cheese overpriced...

The bar area has a pleasant contemporary look that is carried through to the restaurant. The menu options appeared to be very limited but the chef came to the rescue and after good appetisers we were served with smoked grouse and lamb rack (respectively) -...

Had dinner twice here. Food was fantastic, great ingredients, presentation and taste. The braised beef cheek was especially tasty.

We ate here twice during our stay at the hotel - for lunch and dinner - and both serving were faultless. The staff at the hotel and restaurant could not have been more welcoming, adjusting to our timings without any question. The food here is...

I’ve been to The Cromlix before and had a lovely time. But yesterday I was left feeling very disappointed. The atmosphere was very subdued, and greatly hampered by the waiter coming into the restaurant every time a table was vacated with a sanitizer backpack strapped...

Lovely day so sat outside. The table was dirty so had to ask for it to be cleaned. After a considerable wait we were given menus, After another long wait I had to ask for our order to be taken. Eventually the starter arrived. It...

First lunch out since restrictions were eased. Beautiful day which enhanced the setting. First time we have visited. The restaurant was busy. We thoroughly enjoyed the quality of the food and have recommended a visit to our friends.

This is the restaurant in Andy Murray's Cromlix Hotel. I loved the hotel and the grounds-elegant and olde worlde with wood panelling everywhere! The restaurant is housed in what is a very large conservatory built on to the side of the house. It is light...

We enjoyed our meal so much! Trio of seafood and chicken liver parfait to start, followed by beef cheek and partridge and cheese to finish it all off. Beautiful room and amazing staff, we would highly recommend! Will be visiting again for sure! Thank you!

Very helpful and friendly staff. Excellent meal. Will certainly visit again as stopover convenient to Glasgow

Plenty of choice even for a fussy vegetarian. The food was beautifully cooked and wonderfully presented. Ate in both nights and thoroughly enjoyed the food and would highly recommend. Deserts were fabulous particularly the seton Mess

This was our first restaurant meal once restaurants were allowed to reopen. Each table had a smaller table set to one side where food and drinks were served on to. We then had to lean over to the little table and lift our plates to...

If I could give Chez Roux 6 stars I would. Food was excellent, nothing too much trouble for the chef or the waiting staff. I am disabled and was looked after extremely well. Had lunch and dinner here and would recommend it. Social distancing was...

Food was absolutely exquisite. Really reasonable price for what you get. Much better than Gordon Ramsay's Hells Kitchen at Ceasars Palace in Dubai. Highly recommend.

We had our evening meal in the drawing room at The Cromlix Hotel due to social distancing measures. We were not disappointed, we each chose different starters, mains and desserts and all were superb. Could not fault a thing. Staff attentive, warm and friendly and...

Went to Cromlix last night with friends and had a great time and a great meal. Not the same as ‘before’: menus on blackboards or available through a QR code; drinks and plates brought to your table on large trays, from which you serve yourself;...

Dined at Chez Roux for lunch, we knew the experience would be different with new restrictions however the experience was so bad we’d never return. I’ll qualify my review by saying that the food we had was good, however the service was absolutely terrible. We...

We had advised in advance that we were both vegetarian, so we were instantly presented with a veggie menu on arrival, the choice was lovely and difficult to pick from, would have happily had all dishes. We both picked the tofu main, which although the...

Fabulous experience from the moment we walked in the door. Fizz and capapes in the drawing room just set the tone for the whole evening. Exceptional food and service. Cannot recommend highly enough for that special occaison. The set menu was outstanding, the lemon tart...

Amazing from start to finish. We had drinks and canapés in the cocktail lounge while we decided what we were going to eat. There is a fixed price menu, however you can mix and match with the A la Carte. Wine list is amazing and...

Lovely meal, the food was superb, the service was excellent, lovely setting,nothing to dislike, would reccomend to anyone thinking of eating here.

We had a mouth watering dinner & if in the area l would most definitely return. High quality produce, cooked to perfection. Very considerate staff who checked more than once if we had any special dietary requirements. ( which we did & were easily met)...

From the minute you arrive until you leave, you will be looked after. Best description I can give is that the hotel shouts understated elegance. This was my second stay and will not be my last. Wonderful staff, delicious food and good old fashioned service.

Had a wonderful meal here this evening. Brilliant service and attention, and the quality of the food was excellent. We will definitely be back!

14 of us dined at Chez Roux at The Cromlix and the meal was amazing. Every starter, main and dessert was cooked to perfection and inventive. Our children ate earlier than the adults and the very high level was set immediately by the chicken Goujons...

We booked the lounge menu as a last minute lunch with the elderly visiting in-laws, however when we discovered the lounge area was very low couches and tables we realised this wasn't going to be suitable for them or out kids to successfully eat at....

The food was divine, the environment sumptuous and the staff were amazingly attentive without being intrusive. Can’t recommend highly enough.

We visited on Saturday and had a fabulous night. From drinks in the bar with the canapés to the fabulous dinner and drinks in the lounge afterwards, we could not have asked for anything else. We ordered from the set menu and the a la...

We come here at this time every year. The welcome is great and the food even better. This year, I started with a rabbit lasagne in a creamy veloute, and as my main course I had roe deer with mushrooms and various veg. Pudding was...

The food at Chez Roux was superb. Not only was it delicious, it was beautifully presented. My husband particularly liked the Floating Cheese Souffle appetizer, and I loved the beet salad. Breakfast was incredible too. I loved the fact that the kitchen was in the...

A great evening out. Friendly greeting, lovely surroundings, excellent food and service that hits exactly the right note. Tasty amuse bouches were followed by a wonderful soufflé suisesse. Then came perfectly cooked roe deer venison with a venison sausage, salt baked beetroot, tiny wild mushrooms...

The food was great quality lots of choice with food and wine and the service was first class very attentive without being intrusive Would highly recommend this restaurant

A bright, modern addition to the Cromlix, Chez Roux did not disappoint. It was quite busy, but dinner was delicious, and breakfast was also excellent. A must whether staying at the hotel or in the area.

My wife Katie and I were looking forward to a meal at Cromlix to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We were as always not disappointed. Graham and his team gave us a warm welcome. We made our selection from the daily menu which uses seasonal ingredients....

We dined at Chez Roux while staying at the Cromlix and had a delicious dinner there, its a great restaurant. However, I do need to observe that the Chablis we ordered was not cold enough when served, and repeated/continued attempts to chill it took too...

Have been looking at reviews and I am surprised at the good reviews. Went here last year and ordered through lounge menu shepherds pie and cheese omellette for my husband. The shepherds pie was so greasy that you could have taken a dessert spoon and...

We had one evening meal at Chez Roux whilst staying at Cromlix. Overall it was a very positive experience, however, just a few points are worth mentioning. The decor is fresh and modern in contrast to the more traditional presentation of the house and this...

My mother and I were taken out to lunch here by friends, our first visit to this restaurant and it is difficult to fault in any area. There was disabled parking right beside the front door and staff immediately appeared at the door to help...

Have had an overnight stay here and also visited a few times for a meal and afternoon tea........always enjoyed it, rooms are lovely, food great and staff helpful and friendly.......

An excellent restaurant in a fantastic setting. The quality of the food is superb and the standards of service even higher.

A wonderful birthday night was enjoyed by a family group of 7 and from the lovely margarita in the beautifully decorated bar to the fabulous food enjoyed by us all we had a fabulous night and left having particularly enjoyed both the sweet and savoury...

Had a lovely meal in a relaxed atmosphere. I would highly recommend this restaurant for a special event, great service certainly will go back. We took a taxis from Stirling city centre and it was £20 each way.

We'd been for lunch last year (that was great), but ventured a family dinner at Chez Roux as part of our holiday...and we weren't disappointed. Greeted, welcomed and treated like VIP, the evening started well. The hors d'oeuvre were perfect, the cocktails refreshing and the...

We stayed at the Cromlix for 4 nights and wished we could stay longer just so that we could eat more items on the menu. I came home with a handful of recipes that I can't wait to try out on some friends. They should...

My husband and I enjoyed an overnight at the Cromlix on Sunday. From we parked our car the service was 5 star. Staff very friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Food, a delicious dinner which was actually a gift and breakfast both excellent. The accommodation and surroundings...

My husband bought me champagne afternoon tea here! It was so beautiful the service from the young ladies is really wonderful. Credit to Andy Murray.

A few days ago when visiting friends in this area we entertained them to supper in this excellent restaurant. From an extensive menu we choose their freshly prepared and very tasty Chateaubriand. As one would expect they have a wide range of beers, wines and cocktails. Service is first class and their prices are very expensive, but well worth it. Should you be in this area you should dine in this first class restaurant.

Good choice on the set menu and a la carte - courses can be mixed and matched. Lovely modern decor. Service was good but a couple of minor things missed that I would expect from a high end restaurant - eg. Napkins not placed on...

We enjoyed dinner here while staying at the Cromlix Hotel. The restaurant is in a modern conservatory attached to the traditional building of the hotel. The kitchen is open plan, so that diners are able to watch the chefs at work. Overall it was an...

Attention to detail makes all the difference. Fortunately for us the bar was full when we arrived so we were seated in the lounge, a comfortably appointed room in an original part of the estate. I had an opportunity to select a Laphroig from the...

We just went for lunch but I'm sure Cromlix hotel is a wonderful place to stay too. We had the fixed price lunch in Chez Roux which was fantastic and you can watch the chefs as they prepare your food. We then enjoyed coffee and...

For the food alone would be 5 stars and hard to beat, presentation superb and quality first class, small portions but filling. Service was very friendly and comfortable and good to see chefs working and pleasant unhurried space between courses. Why it lost a point...

Five star dining. Comprehensive menu consisting of ‘a la carte’ or menu de marche. Excellent service in an intimate dining room whilst watching the chefs create and assemble the best food in Perthshire! Canapés and drinks in the cozy lounge bar before the main event....

My wife and I had an evening meal at Chez Rouge and really enjoyed the experience. The service was very good, although sometimes a bit too quick and over powering, the wine list was extensive and the food very good indeed.
