Rannoch Station Tearoom in Perth & Kinross

Lovely little tearoom with friendly and welcoming staff. Dog friendly, interesting location and Scones were great too!

This is a brilliant little tea room and I can’t understand how anyone can give it a 1* review. The quality of fresh food and service is excellent, the scenery stunning and visitor centre and gifts well stocked. We booked a few days in advance and would recommend doing this. It’s slightly pricy but you have to understand the logistics of supply based on such a remote location. Decor inside is really interesting with lots of local history etc. Only thing they could improve is serving red and brown sauce in little nice pots rather than the cheap sachets you get in Wetherspoons - made it feel a bit like a pub than tea room. Highly recommend this tea room - staff are also incredibly friendly.

What a fantastic place to head to for a lovely lunch! We had soup ( courgette and cheese which was very tasty) and toasties plus a lovely slice of lemon and mascarpone cake which hubby decided was the fluffiest cake he had ever eaten - a compliment indeed! Sitting in the window seat we were able to watch the clouds gradually lift and the hills appear - book this table if you can! I would recommend booking ( we didn't but got lucky with a table being available). there is seating outdoors but the midges were very keen when we visited so it was definitely better to be indoors! All the staff were very friendly and helpful. Plenty of free parking and we even saw a hen harrier while driving up which was a fantastic sight.

We stopped for a few hours in Rannoch on our train journey from Oban to Fort William and it was totally worth it! The tea room is not big but the atmosphere is great. And we enjoyed the food (especially the cakes!). Totally worth the visit.

Lovely cosy cafe with nice selection of cakes. It is a beautiful drive along Loch Rannoch and feels very remote. We also went on a walk along the track to Glencoe.

Very clean and tidy and so welcoming on a chilly wet day! Good selection on the menu and great coffee. Good choice of cakes too!

Been coming to this cafe for years it’s brilliant and there cakes are to die for they sell out of cakes every quick considering how good they are 100% recommend it to anyone stopping by rannoch station

The staff were so nice and food was lovely best carrot cake and adorable merchandise. Lovely view of the railway and dog friendly too

As family we've had the pleasure of knowing Bill & Jenny for many years and I've been coming here for as long as I've known my Wife who has family connections in the area. One wouldn't expect such niceties in the rural Highlands but they serve the finest of fare for a well earned treat built up exploring this beautiful area. Thank you for your service to the area over so many years, and for your kindness and hospitality.

Lovely surprise, a gem of a tea room, yes its small and limited by the small station and surroundings but kind helpful staff. Great cakes and scone was so nice and fresh. Home baking at it’s very finest. Was worth the short wait and understandable with its tiny size.

It was a very nice waffle and the ice cream was very nice and the music wasn’t that loud and the chairs were nice and comfy

Had lunch here with a group of cycling friends. Amazing location, delicious food, friendly staff and great service. Thank you. Can’t wait to come back again.

Lovely views and good food however extremely slow service. If you are to visit make sure you have a good couple of hours for your toastie.

Made to feel very welcome by staff, toastie lovely. Even dog biscuits for my pup. Lovely place and was lucky enough to see a train arrive.

So pleased we found this gem of a cafe! Delicious soup, the best chocolate cake I've ever had and the scone I took back to our holiday cottage was beautiful. Staff were all lovely. Worth the 84 mile round trip!

Such a lovely cafe in a wonderful location. We've been a few times now and have always had great food (as everyone says the cake is spectacular). The staff are friendly and welcoming. Couldn't ask for more.

Nach einer langen Fahrt erreichte ich Rannoch Station wenige Minuten bevor der Tearoom öffnete. Kaum stieg ich aus dem Auto, befand ich mich in einer Wolke von Midges und dachte erst, wo bin ich nur gelandet? Wenige Minuten später saß ich in dem urigen Cafe, genoß mein Frühstück. Ich bewunderte Silvia die Bedieung, die fürsorglich die sicher ständig gleichen Fragen der Gäste beantwortete, ja selbst die vierbeinigen Besucher mit lieben Worten und einem Leckerlie begrüßte. Ich beobachtete wie ein Kuchen nach dem anderen auf den Tresen kam. Und ich konnte nicht widerstehen ... der Kuchen mit den Himbeeren war köstlich! Dieses Cafe ist der ideale Ausgangspunkt, um diese Ecke des Rannoch Moor etwas zu erkunden. Viele der anderen Gäste warteten auf den Zug, um eine Station weiter zu fahren und von dort zurückzuwandern. Ich entschied mich für die 3 1-stündigen Wanderungen.

As our anniversary fell within our annual visit week, we decided to enjoy a brunch at the tearoom and I booked a table for noon as August is a busy month. The staff were lovely and although we were 10 mins late for the breakfast specials, Bill kindly did a full Scottish for my husband as he'd been looking forward to that! I opted for a proper frankfurter with fried onions and real German mustard, though I decided to pass on the saurkraut. Both meals were really good. Jenny even had time for a quick chat before the lunch time rush and staff wished us a happy anniversary when they served our meal and drinks. As the wee place filled up, we felt bad that two of us were taking up a table for four, so we told Jenny that we'd choose our cakes and take them back to our lodge. She did ask us to stay, but we were full anyway, so it wasn't too much of a hardship to defer our cakes until later! We chose two pieces of fantastic lumberjack cake and as we're cream lovers, Jenny popped a couple of clotted cream pots into the boxes. She also refused to take payment for the cakes and said that was our anniversary treat....such kindness on our special day! I'm not adding any of the prices as it seemed unimportant because we felt like royalty and much preferred to visit this tearoom than to spend much more money in some impersonal posh hotel. Prices have risen everywhere, so we are well aware of how some businesses are struggling. We have eaten here before and the hard working team always try to accomodate the folk who find their way to this out of the way place, which is part of it's charm. But do book ahead and make allowances for your timings and the popularity of the place. It's a gem, so appreciate it's uniqueness. Thank you, Bill, Jenny and staff & we hope to be back next year if we're fit enough!

Went by road and had bacon and egg rolls. Walked to loch then back to tea shop for tea and cake. Lovely food, cakes are home made and different from the usual factory made cakes on offer in other tea rooms, only problem is which to have. Very friendly staff. P. S. Thank you for my sausage and biscuit you gave me. Aggy the dog.

Arrived for lunch and to buy cake to take home, to be told that I was rationed to a single piece of cake. Odd business plan to display cakes and then refuse to sell them. Excuse given was that you didn’t want to run out later, so I am a bit annoyed to see reviews on here where you have sold 3 slices of cake to people to take away. I have travelled the 160miles to you for lunch many times, but think this was the last time.

Book before you travel to this wonderful cafe/ tea room thats unique location will surprise you. The food is top drawer and the service exactly the same. Check out the views of the moor, loch and the old station. And you see some deer too.

This Tea room was the most beautiful little find, it was like stepping back in time. Very good value, the food was yummy even had a cheeky glass of wine. The staff were very friendly. We did not want to eat until 4pm but it closed at 4.30pm to make sure we had a table I checked beforehand but was advised that there may not be cakes left by then. So I asked for one to be put aside for me and this was not a problem. Lovely little souveniers to purchase as well. We would have gone back the next day but unfortunately it was closed. There was beautiful deers to look at as well which was a bonus and lovely walking areas that lead to a secluded little beach. Would definately go back if we visit this area again.

The Tea Room at Rannoch Moor Train Station is very much iconic, a one off. Despite it being well off the beaten track it remains very popular and busy and no surprises there. The menu, whilst not extensive boasts excellent quality food from the home made soup, tasty sandwiches and hot snacks, followed by an unbeatable range of home made cakes and deserts. All this delivered by friendly owners and staff in a location that is perhaps unrivalled in the UK. The station tea room and accompanying "museum" rooms adds a real homely feel

Had lunch here yesterday and fell in love with the tearoom and the place! The staff were super friendly, the menu was simple and quality and the cakes were beyond yummy! Such a great atmosphere and tasteful decor. Deserves 10 stars. Thank you! Burch

Absolutely superb and good value cakes. Big slices instead of those meagre slivers they serve up at certain other places! I bought three pieces of cake to take away and a book. The owner came out to check (believe his name is Bill) if there...

This is a lovely tea room at Rannock station friendly staff worth a drive ,beautiful views great area to explore

Had a lovely cream tea here on a freezing day. Staff lovely and goid value for money. Worth the drive with spectacular views of Loch Rannoch and the mountains.

It’s a long drove on down Loch Rannoch and then up onto Rannoch Moor - and fabulously beautiful! Then you reach this very remote station - and on the island platform is a great coffee shop/tea room. A chocolate cake was cooling on a bench....

My wife and I were walking in the area in the middle of March 2022. We had tea and cakes after a couple of long walks and the cake was amazing. I had a banana banoffee cake twice - simply world class. The menu is...

Gorgeous, quaint little tea room, lovely friendly staff. Went for breakfast had the tastiest bowl of porridge I’ve ever had followed by a toasted tea cake. Gorgeous.

I love this gem of a place! The scones were out of this world. Room oh is a lovely area and the staff in the tea room - outstanding ! Keep up the good work, will be back.
