Dunnichen Stone Forfar in Angus

We had great service from our server Emily. Reasonably priced food in a nice setting, suitable for families. Will be back.

Warm welcome from the manager Callum, he was extremely friendly and always available for any questions we had. Our server Emily was first class and very pleasant. We all enjoyed the food and highly recommend the pizzas. We will be back soon!

Service was quick and efficient. Nice choice on menu, vegetarian options available, good choice of kids menu. Starter portion of macaroni was perfect size for smaller appetite, with addition of the most beautiful chips we have had in a long time. Philly steak baguette was excellent, steak was cooked to your requirements. Then to dessert, make sure you leave space! Sticky toffee pudding with custard was fabulous and a generous portion. Apple crumble with custard was delicious.

Table for 5 booked for 17.30. Yes we were 5 minutes late but on arrival should have been told about the wait for food. Got our drinks and ordered the meals(no mixed grills left). After asking twice about our order food eventually arrived at 18.50 one plate sent back as only lukewarm. Chicken kebab was a joke worst thing I have ever seen, most of it left on the plate. Will not be back.

Food was really good.service was very good.chatty staff made you feel wanted.We will be back.Plates were hot puddings were beautiful.

Very pleasant experience, staff very friendly & attentive, nice clean tables & food served very quickly. Overall it was a lovely meal & would recommend.

Good quality food, and excellent attentive service from Lucy our waitress. Really liked the option of table service or the qr coded to scan for food.

We waited 20 mins before having our drinks order taken, and that was after flagging down the young waitress that was trying her best. After placing our order (for 3 main courses), we waited nearly 50mins further on our meals being served, which were lukewarm. The waitress didn’t come back to ask if everything was ok with our food. We could see and hear the waitress was getting several complaints from other customers and was serving the area (by the kids play area) alone. We felt for the waitress as she was very polite and apologetic when we mentioned our meals weren’t as hot as we’d have liked, the poor girl looked worn out and ready to cry. This is the first time we have visited the Dunnichen Stone in over 2 years and were encouraged to go as we’d received a 30% discount voucher in the post, however unfortunately we won’t be rushing back (we were sat at table 5)

Edit. Has improved a lot since I'd been here last. Although it was around lunchtime. The food was a lot better. The food was okay. They stop serving food at 7 pm and last orders at the bar at 7.30 pm.

Stopped here unexpectedly, we were met at the door by a very polite and attentive member of staff. We had a very pleasant meal in nicely furbished surroundings.

It was lovely, the food was excellent

Staff were lovely but food took an extremely long time to come out. Wasn't pleasant and felt like it had been previously frozen and zapped in a microwave.

Nice warm welcome from Callum, pleasant service from him and Emily, disappointing there were no baguettes as advertised on the menu (and especially so early on in the day) We were a party of 4 for a birthday lunch, 3 of us wanted the baguettes so not the best impression to start !

Terrible experience food came out was cold 3 plates of food was cold spoke to staff got new plate and very tastless won't return

Stopped in for a quick bite both had the soup DONT disgusting cold no baguette as in menu got 2 slices of bread and 2 slices of cement that was supposed to be butter Won't be back please avoid

Lovely meal, my burger was delicious 😋 friendly service from great staff, will be back!

Excellent experience when visiting the restaurant recently with friends. Food was very enjoyable. Staff members Emily & Callum were very professional, courteous & helpful. Highly recommended

Stopped by for a quick snack nice welcome and pleasant surroundings Ordered soup and a bagette and was dissapointed to get a tiny bowl of kinda warm leek and potato well kind of soup 2 slices of ice hard butter very very bad and will not be back.

My Son and I have been wanting to try this comfortable-looking restaurant/bar for some time and thought this Sunday should be the day for it. We were pleasantly surprised at first having been seated quickly by one of the three or four girls visibly working there. One asked politely, would you like drinks and we ordered Pepsi and Fresh Orange which came (no-optionly) well-iced . We were made aware of the several things that were not available such as macaroni, gammon, roast beef and something else unremembered, thinking ... well, they must have been very busy that day as only about a dozen customers were there. Never mind. I had the turkey meal which when it came was short on presentation, soggy on Yorkshire pudding, lacking in roast potatoes and a bit too "al dente" on the carrots. My son, a very hearty eater and is also a non-complainer, dully chomped his way through a tiny plate of soup for a fiver and fish 'n chips which looked as tired on the plate as the look on the young waitress's face. To cap it all, only when the bill arrived did I discover that my fresh orange juice was, in fact, "Frobisher's Orange" with a 4 ounce dash of lemonade added ... and causing the £3.20 "fruit" juice to increase in price to £5.40. Overall, the decor, food, drinks and service have potential. If the staff were more motivated, the food more hearty, hot, and more like the photos on the menu, and the drinks menu priced at all. It's all really needing to be better. More than slightly disappointed.

Quality food at very affordable prices and very helpful staff

We enjoyed our tea, thanks Sofia

Very nice meal. Well attended friendly staff. Only one disappointment was I had to ask for extra custard as my apple crumble was a bit dry and you don't get much custard. Willingly brought to me, but I didn't realised until I got home that I had been charged for it! £1 for a tiny jug.

Excellent as always, spotlessly clean prompt and friendly service Good food and drinks, always worth a visit Keep up the good work

We stopped in to feed our young baby during a long journey. The welcome was lovely and our waitress Sophia was very polite, attentive and cheerful. We were very well looked after despite only popping in for a juice and snack while we fed our daughter. Thank you

Lovely lunch here today. Very good food, lovely staff. Reasonable prices.

Friendly staff Lucy was very helpful, gammon was lovely. All staff were friendly and couldn't do enough for us, will definitely recommend

Our visit to restaurant was brilliant. Callum, Lucy and Emily gave incredible service, food was delicious. Highly recommend. Will definitely be back soon.

Sunday roast was first class, friendly and attentive staff, would visit again.

Lucy our server catered for all that we asked for. The drinks and food was served without any waiting. The tastes were excellent so much so I said to pass on our thanks to the chefs

Food was good, we were served by Lucy who was very friendly and attentive

Another pleasant visit to the Dunnichen Stone; lovely friendly staff ( Emily is a great asset to your team), tasty GF ultimate burger & pleasant atmosphere. We will be back !

Went here for Mother's day, was amazing service and the food was exquisite. There was many food options available that sounded delicious. Our server was very attentive and even with there section being very busy they catered to our every need and we're very polite, would deffinatly recommend and will be back again.

Avoid - restaurant now appears to be a front for a parking scam. I have eaten here many times and it's decent pub grub with good service. However, they now work with some parking company who have tried to find me 100 quid for parking...

Service was extremely friendly. Lots of choice. Very clean. Good value

Fabulous meal had by my hubby and myself . Fab staff , great service , great food . Certainly will be back soon . Thankyou x

Great atmosphere and very friendly staff 👍

Great atmosphere great food Allan the chef came out to check on us thanks to Allan will be back great location just of the main road and not far from the town.would recommend this place to all clean and well presented staff were polite

Absolutely brilliant pub and food was DELICIOUS will 100% be back

Had a great meal here with the family, we had pizza and kebab. Wasnt too busy, staff were great What a treat!! Will def be back again

Very nice and great atmosphere and very polite & courteous staff. Was a really nice experience and will look forward to going again 💯

Excellent and friendly service. Attentive staff. Very good meals from keenly priced special menus. Wide selection of drinks. Good disabled facilities and just off the main Dundee to Aberdeen A90. Spacious lounge. Child friendly area too.

Came in for a random lunch date with the partner, fantastic food, great day will definitely be back for more (excited to try the ultimate spicy beef burger) 😋 xxx

Food was amazing especially the grazers would recommend to others 100%. Only issue was pots of tea was forgotten other than that everything was amazing

Good meal and service, generous helpings. Lucy was very helpful

Staff were very friendly and attentive. Food was good and the prices were very reasonable.

Got a mixed grill and as usual all the meat was overly done though I asked for medium cook. Had mixed grill a few times and it's always overly done - had the friends eggs to rely on. Other person got kebab and it was good.

Good service, nice food, good value and choice on the menu

Decent food and great price although a little disappointed that my spicy burger had no cheese or jalapenos in it as per the menu description. Surf and turf was really good and the service from the waiter in particular was top class - Thankyou

Food was okay, but the steak was served warm, not hot. Had to be sent back, very disappointing. Uncommon beers only, so it's a hit or miss.

Very cozy comfortable place to eat but we waited over an hour for food and the place was quiet hardly anyone there so as much as I like the place I wouldn't go back. Going by other comments I'm not alone in waiting for over an hour for food. Before it arrived I felt like leaving to be fair.

Attentive staff. Food was nice but the meat was more rare then medium.

Service was disjointed with a few mistakes with our order but was corrected. One plate of food was quite cold but the other two were fine. Blunt cutlery. Lovely cosy ambience and will give it another visit.

Very friendly staff, meals good value for money. Meals were a good portion and everyone of us cleared our plates. We were a party of 15, aging from 3 to 80.

Same great service, same great smile. Coffee great too. Thanks.

Food is excellent. I got 30% off main meals here today.

Came for a spontaneous date night with my partner, amazing service, friendly and attentive staff, food was very yummy, good choice of meals on the menu! Food cooked perfectly.

everything was perfect and up to standards!

Food was amazing and the staff was very friendly and helpful. Definitely would recommend for anyone stopping through for a nice wee bite to eat. The Classic Beef Burger was braw along with the pepperoni pizza, had a couple drinks which were nice and delivered quickly.

I am a fairly regular customer at the dunnichen stone and every time i visit i am always very welcomed by the team. Fiona, emily and darryl are always so helpful and make me feel special and appreciated. I look forward to coming everytime and feel even happier when i leave. Jess and satarupa from the kitchen team always have my meals cooked to perfection! I enjoy every single visit, thank you dunnichen stone team :)

Food was amazing and service was very attentitive, could not fault the place

Excellent service from Daryl and good reasonably priced food. Will definitely be back!

Place very cosy and welcoming .Staff very attentive. Food was lovely Mac cheese. ,gammon... Will come back soon.

Came in on Sunday for a lovely Sunday roast with all the trimmings, staff were incredible and very keen to help. Food was delicious and tasty. Will definitely go back!! I really enjoyed this on my weekend off.

Absolutely lovely resteraunt, the food was delicious and served very quickly. We were sat next to the fireplace which made the experience even better. Overall, I highly recommend a visit.

Came in today for a roast with the family and wasn't disappointed, our server Darryl was very accommodating and recommended the beef which was delicious and cooked perfectly the gravy that came with the roast was amazing also will definitely be back

Visited this evening, food not much better than McDonald’s next door, service started of well but that member of staff finished there shift, young brunette dealt with me after my order was taken, rude and arrogant, won’t be returning, better service and food next door at McDonald’s. This pub has definitely gone down, will guess it will become closed just like many others soon.

Lovely staff. Food could have been a bit warmer.

I have visited this place several times now and each time I have received a warm welcome and fantastic hospitality from all of the staff. On each occasion the food has always been good and well prepared. The atmosphere is also very friendly and warm. I would definitely recommend a visit if you are in the area. Keep up the good work.

Very friendly staff nothing was too much trouble for them they even have a dog friendly area which was great as my friend had his guide dog with him

Went to Dunnichen Stone late afternoon was greeted by a friendly member of staff who walked me over to my table. Table and surroundings were clean and a very cosy atmosphere. It was very quiet at this time, but this quickly changed with a big...

Met friends for lunch on New Year's Eve. Lovely experience. Nice atmosphere. Lovely staff. Only problem was, never got coffee as one of our party only takes goat or soya milk, but told not available.

We had not been to this restaurant for a long time but came today as we were passing. I had hunters chicken with double fries. Although the chicken was tasty it was quite small. The fries were excellent. My partner had steak pie with double...

Great dinner experience while visiting from America!

Absolutely disappointed been going here for years regularly & have never been treated so bad. Food was cold& no apology from manager was offered another meal but by then I was put off , then had to ask for my cold meal to be taken...

As a regular customer I was very disappointed been going here for many years we used to celebrate special occasions here but after my recent visit I won’t be back very poor customer service after being served cold hunters chicken. Manger never came out to apologise or offer any apologies, I went to pay the bill & my cold hunters chicken was still on it even after i returned to the waitress. I did get offered another one but by that point I was put off eating. Emailed head office but still not heard back. Won’t be back that’s for sure. Regular loyal customer & not even an apology 😡

Visited for Christmas Dinner with family and food and drink was brilliant and served promptly and servers were really nice

Very pleasant visit, without booking. Especially good service from the staff. Amazing food with generous portions, overall an excellent place to eat out.

Service was poor, no one checked that the food was ok after it being served. Roast Turkey meals were served without the cranberry sauce the roast potatoes were not crispy and tasted like they had been left sat a while. One tiny (like 1cm) sized piece of broccoli on each plate and Yorkshire puddings that were more like pancakes they actually had not risen at all. The fish and chips were good. But don't think we will be back

Absolutely beautiful lunch today Saturday 16th December. Philly Cheese Steak baguette so much steak, cheese and filling and cooked to perfection also the chips were delicious

oh my god, amazing. I have never tasted food as good as here. I would definitely reccomend to everyone. The staff were so kind and welcoming, brilliant service very fast, we will definitely be back.

Very friendly staff, welcoming, helpful but unobtrusive. Food was really good and no long waits. Always a pleasure to eat at Dunnichen Stone.

Comfortable and cosy in front of blazing fire.

Nice atmosphere and dog friendly.

Waiter was very friendly . Service great , good food in front of sun open fire 😃

Way better than my last experience, the staff were attentive and friendly, the food was the best I’d ever had anywhere! Can’t wait to go back.

The food was excellent. There has been some visits when the food wasn’t up to much, but yesterday’s visit was really good. Attentive staff also. Will be back soon.

Food was delicious, well presented, service great. Reasonable priced.

Service was rather slow. At the beginning we had staff not giving us the possibility to sit together. When ordering we were waiting around 45 minutes for the starters we ordered and 30-45 minutes before we got our main meals. Some of them were bland...

Staff were very nice and welcoming 5 stars to them. As for the food it was very disappointing 3 steaks and a kids cheeseburger meal ordered. The steaks were very small with a large part of it being gristle, the burger pate was almost like a McDonald's. We asked for no lettuce but was sent with lettuce, should have sent it back but chose to remove it but then my daughter never ate it because of this. 5 small mushrooms, 2 tiny onion rings and the grilled tomato was still hard and not soft and juicy, peas were dry. My other daughter asked for no tomato or mushrooms on her plate instead just to serve them with my meal, never happend yet again I should have said something but from the second the plates hit the table we were just shocked at what we were seeing and disappointed. Steak should have at least been flattened out a bit to improve the look of it and increase the size on offer to 10oz, more mushrooms on the plate cooked and coated in butter, would be better to serve grilled cherry tomatoes on the vine rather than just a tomato cut in half, larger onion rings and use skinny fries. Doing this would fill the plate and make it look more appealing and could even allow them to increase the price.Burgers would be more appealing if they were hand made and thicker even on the childrens menu. The worsed thing I it was my youngest 14th birthday treat. There was a table came in after us who were served food before us but didnt seem to stay very long. This review is based on our experience so cannot comment on other food on the menu.

We took our sixteen year old granddaughter here for a birthday lunch. I noticed on the menu that they had buttermilk chicken as a starter but there was also chicken strips and nuggets. I chose the chicken strips and was served chicken strips and nuggets....

First time having a dinner here and I can say wow . 🤩 great job guys nice and warm welcome and very kind , amazing people working here ! Thanks guys 😊😊 definitely will come back and highly recommend!

Went for a family meal but service was extremely slow and food was poor We waited over an hour to get our starters. The food was not as good as expected and there was a total lack of attention. Very disappointing evening.

Staff were lovely and friendly and basically a good experience overall

Meal was absolutely stinking. i had macaroni, and it was like, out of a tin, i then had jam sponge and custard again the sponge was out of a plastic cup microwave thing and you got very little custard so I definitely won't be back.

Welcome was very friendly and guided to our pre booking table, which was comfortable and cozy, just what was needed on a miserable weather day. Our waitress was attentive and friendly, with the food being extremely good, hot and tasty and reasonably priced. To conclude a pleasant afternoon meal and highly recommended 🤤

Beautiful restaurant friendly staff just lack the final touches

I hadn’t been here for some time but have visited twice this month. First time was for a late lunch with friends visiting from overseas then as a birthday treat for my mother in law. The food has always been good on previous visits but...

Although regular visitors to Forfar, this was our first visit to the Dunnichen Stone. The restaurant was clean and the two waitresses who were working were friendly and helpful. The menu had a good selection of dishes and prices for food were reasonable. There was...

Staff let us in but they told us the kitchen was closing in 10 minutes so we rushed to order (the kitchen was closing at 7pm). Food was okay slightly on the greasy side and staff really didn't feel like they wanted to be there due to their attitude. Not really worth going.

Another visit to the Dunnichen Stone. A very pleasant lunch. Lovely food, reasonably priced.
