Roman Camp Hotel Restaurant in Stirling

Very disappointed - Really! £8 for a bowl of Heinz tomato soup. Such cheffing finesse - not. Disappointed to say the very least.

- Outside seating and tables could do with a bit of a tlc/cleaning (but it did add to it's outdoor 'shabby chic' vibe) Service could be improved especially at busier times. + Plenty of parking Well maintained grounds and buildings - next to the river. Food was excellent! - we had the battered king prawns, salmon and lamb rump (which was a tad overcooked) Very reasonably priced for what you get. Overall this was one of the highlights of our visit to Callander, I would recommend pre-booking especially for dinner. We will be back if we are in the area.

Fabulous from start to finish. Very comfortable and welcoming lounges for pre drinks and coffee. The food was superb and excellent service. A great find well worth a detour.

Had afternoon tea in the Library today. Food and service were excellent. Pastries and scones were especially delicious. Sitting in front of a real coal fire, lovely and cosy on a rainy day.

buoni i piatti di questa brasserie a lato dell'hotel Roman camp a callander. ottimo il servizio prezzi nella media posto informale ma carino

As much as it pains me to write, I was very disappointed in the Bistro. The setting is beautiful and our server was very attentive - however, our coffees were served cold and our cakes were shop bought!!! A detail only given away by notifying our server that 2/3 of us had an allergy. He checked the “packaging” and told us the “allergens in bold”. For where we were, I’d of expected slightly higher quality/local bakery products. The walk around the gardens after was the highlight.

Lovely experience. We were in the Bistro in the delightful orangery within the grounds rather than in the main hotel. Great food. We both had lamb and a delicious red wine recommended by our waitress who despite being alone in this place, which is apart from the main restaurant in the hotel was calm, helpful and very attentive (not overly just perfectly). We look forward to returning.

Yet again enjoyed a fabulous Sunday lunch in the hotel restaurant, great food & drink with impeccable service in comfortable surroundings.

A mixed bag but overall very nice. The bad……ketchup and vinegar in a sachet? Come on !!! No mint sauce for the lamb. What!!!!! Bench seats bloody uncomfortable. Do the owners ever fit on them to test them? Tad expensive especially the starters. The good. Lovely staff. Food lovely and the ambiance is lovely.

Fabulous food in a lovely, intimate building. Our sandwich lunches were great value, coming with root vegetable crisps, salad and coleslaw.Money well spent. The staff were excellent, being present but not in the way. Would strongly recommend a visit here for a relaxed meal and lovely environment. We will be back :)

A lovely lunch today. Attentive staff, nice menu, dog friendly. Of the three starters and three mains, the only fault was overcooked lamb. Asked for pink/medium rare and it sadly wasn’t. It won’t put me off returning. The ambience and setting are lovely.

We ate in the restaurant. Staff all helpful, polite and attentive and all in lovely surroundings. Best of all, the food was excellent and beautifully presented. Fine dining with lots of extra little touches and treats. We loved it.

We had an outstanding experience at the quaint and unassuming Potting Shed Bistro at the Roman Camp Hotel. The service was excellent - fully attentive, helpful and kind staff, and the food outstanding. Our experience was entirely delightful.

We had lunch in their restaurant and the staff were outstanding. The lamb we had was as good as we have had and the vegetables match that. We will certainly be back and we enjoyed the walk round the garden.

Stayed the night in Callander and was recommended by the owners of the Guest House to eat at The Potting Shed Bistro. What a lovely quirky and intimate environment. Food was very tasty and the menu caters for everyone. Great service. Very enjoyable evening. Plenty of parking. Book early to avoid disappointment as the place is really popular.

My friend and I were having a dinner in Potting Shed. I ordered avocado salad and my friend had a risotto. Her portion was ok, but the avocado salad was a big disappointment. The avocado was mainly spoiled (dark) and the salad was full of different chips. The service was ok but felt busy. Thank god the Champaign was good :-).

We enjoyed the four course menu for a family birthday. The food was very creative and delicious and they were happy to accommodate our pescatarian dietary habit. We started with tidbits and drinks in the library, where we were asked our choices by the host, then were hurried into to the dining room before having a chance to finish our canapes and tartlets. We assumed this was because it was a busy night, but when we entered the dining room we were one of two full tables amongst about 20 that were set, complete with gorgeous candles blazing on all. No other diners every came (though we were seated at 8 pm, so perhaps they had already been). It was eerily quiet as there were no servers taking orders and no background music. One by one courses and little extras were delivered in an unwarranted frenzy by either our punctilious host or two hushed young servers. Everything was delicious and we so enjoyed the treasures unfolding with details like cucumber foam, caviar, etc. I would definitely repeat the surreal experience just to see what else the inventive chef has in store. About $100 per person plus drinks (my son's 19th birthday Aperol Spritz was a work of art). There's a wonderful garden and yard area to explore before or after.

My wife & I decided to pay a visit during the good weather, enjoyed it that much I took my mum back there a few days later. The service was great as was the food but if there was any negatives it would be that it was slightly over-priced and maybe not enough on the menu to suit everyone so my advice would be to check the menu before you visit. But a nice lunch in a lovely setting nevertheless.

De passage dans la région nous avons dormi et mangé dans le restaurant gastronomique de l'hôtel. Le cérémonial est épatant, mise en bouche prise au salon puis repas dans une véritable salle de mariage. Le déroulé des plats et mises en bouche est sans accroc. Dommage que l'on était que 5 dans le restaurant. Le menu est à l'image du cadre mais de bonne qualité. Le serveur est exceptionnel avec son accent scottish. Une étape touristique incontournable.

We had a meal at the bistro which is in the Potting shed - literally. Nice enough but I did not find it particularly comfortable as it was a bit cold. There were only about four items on the menu in each category, however the food was great.

Really disappointed with our eating experience at the potting shed. Completely overpriced and underwhelming food. My chicken salad bowl, although beautifully cooked, chicken breast was on the smallest of basic salad, encircled by a large amount of veg crisps, no dressing. Charging £14.50 for this is a rip off. £8.50 Sandwiches were also a real disappointment, thin supermarket bread, presented with the crusts trimmed, each sandwich consisted of two fairly small triangles. Tasty filling but for too expensive for what we got. Waitress was lovely, good service, venue a delight but sadly we won’t be back for food and as locals, thats a real shame.

A group of us decided to book here (potting shed) while camping nearby. It's a stunning location and quaint interior. First gripe is there is no real kids menu: fish and chips or chicken and chips... Hardly a variety for the wee ones. Second gripe...

Today 5 of us booked the potting shed at the Roman Camp (11.45pm) for brunch, We arrived on time, the order was taken which was basically breakfast for all, 3 items comes to nearly £10 excluding beverages/toast, the food eventually arrived 1 hour later! cold...

Excellent food, good beer, and friendly service in this no-frills cafe located in the garden of the Roman Camp Hotel. You must book well in advance, it's a small restaurant and quite popular, especially on weekends.

Its in Callander, but hidden away in a beautiful location. Full of old fashioned comfort and lovely staff. The highlight is the chef. This is real fine dining.

Friendly server at the potting shed when we called for a coffee and scones. The place is dog friendly and we had a nice walk round the lovely garden. We didn't go into the main hotel so can't comment on the main restaurant.

We went there tonight for our evening meal with my sister in law. Both my wife and I had fish and chips, and my sister in law had the mushroom risotto. All the food was well presented tasty and served by a very well mannered...

Really disappointed with our visit to the Potting Shed/Garden Bistro. The food is extremely basic and poor quality and overpriced for what it is. Cheap sliced thin bread etc. Wouldn’t recommend.

My wife and I had dinner here twice over the weekend, and it's very much a dining experience: set within a round room with dramatic floral arrangements and log fire, the atmosphere is fancy bud relaxed. The waiting staff added to the occasion, doubling up...

Wonderful food, beautifully presented by excellent staff! Particularly enjoyed the onion soup and the salmon. Good selection of fine wine.

Had a birthday treat with a very dear friend at the potting shed. I’m going give the positives of the place that it’s a very quirky place and feels homely. Got to say that the food is amazing, not cheap but worth it. Found the...

I have been going here since the Potting Shed opened. Love where it is situated as it nice to wander round the grounds before or after eating. Only thing is the menu has not changed since it opened. Would be nice to have a bit...

Absolute gem of a place, went for a meal to the Potting Shed Bistro on our last night in Callander. Food was excellent, the one waiter was rushed off his feet but gave sterling service. I had the steak which was plentiful, my wife had...

This bistro is situated in the grounds of the Roman Camp Hotel and lives up to its name. The food was excellent and the staff attentive and friendly. This was one of the nicest pasta dishes we have had and was nicely presented. Recommended

We had dinner in the PottingShed bistro and were impressed with the food and the service. Staff were very friendly and attentive. We had lamb and the avocado salad - both were lovely. Creme brulee for dessert was also extremely good. Staff helped us to...

Had a lovely lunch here - really exceptionally delicious. Starter of ham hock, steak main and really scrumptious passion fruit cremeux in a white chocolate cup and a mango sorbet. Very attentive waiters. I’d highly recommend for a special meal

Went to the Potting Shed for lunch with son’s soon to be in laws. Service was slow, needed reminding. Apparently only one chef on. We had sandwiches, which were disappointing, the filling didn’t live up to the promise.

This is our third or fourth visit to the Pottingshed Bistro and we thought due to the excellent location that it would be more interesting than ‘eating out’ in Main Street Callander so we decided to bring some visiting friends. We last visited the Pottingshed...

It is such a shame that the surroundings were a massive let down for the excellent service and food we enjoyed. The table decorations were well past their best and the seating needed replacing - both of which could be easily resolved just niggly things...

We book dinner for one evening, but decided to go back the second night; the food is fabulous and the waiting staff are excellent. Well done everyone, but special mention to Graham and particularly James. The picture of the food included here, I hope, illustrate...

Telephoned in the morning to book a table in the Potting Shed. Was told they didn't have access to the diary but took details and said they would phone back if they couldn't fit us in or if we didn't hear from them the booking...

Stumbled across this bistro a couple of years ago and found it delightful. Visited a couple of times last year and found the food still excellent and the hygiene measures first class. Now that we have a holiday home nearby we intend using the potting...

My friend and I had afternoon high tea , served on dinner plates not the picture experience shown , really nothing to write home about , priced at £29 per person I would say over rated ,

We booked a lunchtime slot for a birthday celebration and my wife enjoyed it so much she is already planning a return visit. The Potting Shed is a very short walk down the hotel gardens towards the river and is an unprepossessing building which some...

Stayed here for a weekend break and hotel and grounds were perfect. Very old property which retains its quirky charm. Immediate entrance inside hotel was welcoming when we arrived with a roaring log fire. The grounds were lovely too with flower beds and a river...

We ate in the bistro and my husband reckons the burger was the best he had ever experienced. I tried it too and it was delicious. I had a lovely risotto and then felt inspired to make my own when I got home. The staff...

My wife wanted a special Sunday lunch towards the end of our local holiday. From start to finish the meal was excellent and service to match. The 3 course menu includes tasty canapes, petit fours and coffee so is good value overall. Thoroughly recommended.

We actually ate at the potting shed which is the bistro attached to the hotel. The food was excellently cooked, the rump of lamb was superb and the sweet choice was very good. Would return if I was back in the area.

What a wonderful visit, staff very attentive, food was very tasty with service at a great pace. Menu doesn’t disappoint, defiantly visit again. Will defiantly visit again possibly staying next time.

Fantastic fine dining. The staff were friend, amazing food, very good COVID safety in place. It is expensive but if you want fain dining I would recommend.

We finally got to spend a lazy afternoon at Roman camp after Covid had cancelled our mother's day lunch (boo) back in March. So lovely to return to a favourite haunt. Lunch in the main restaurant was superb as always, the fish cooking being particularly excellent. Coffee and aperitifs in the elegant lounge, a long walk through the gardens, it was a perfect afternoon and everyone was so pleased to see us and we were so taken care off. The fixed price set lunch here for food of this quality with amuse-bouche and petit fours is always exceptionally good value. The hotel is spacious and therefore super secure and comfortable in times of social distancing. The hotel has clearly put the health and well-being of its customers and staff front and centre of how it currently operates which is to be commended. Thank you.

Had an afternoon tea today and even though the food was as delicious as usual it wasn't photo worthy as it was just served on individual dinner plates and not on lovely cake stands. Went with a friend who hadn't been before and felt very disappointed that we didn't get the full experience! 'Covid19' was given as a reason why, however I've been to other places and they are serving as usual. Seems very trivial but its amazing what a difference it made to the afternoon.

Went to roman camp on a sunday for a meal . The food was surpurb every mouthful was like a invitation to scotland The dining room was beautifully set out and would most recommend a wedding there . All I say is keep up the great job there doing . The staff were courteous and polite . Surroundings great and I saw a peacock which was beautiful also .

My friend and I came here on a Sunday afternoon to try the afternoon tea and we were not disappointed. We were offered a choice of where to sit and we picked the library which was quiet and serene and had a lovely view of the river. Hot bites, sandwiches and savoury bites were on the first stand and the second stand was scones with clotted cream, jam and mini cakes.Portions are plentiful served with as much tea as we liked. Not rushed at all and we had a lovely afternoon. Staff are wonderful. Food was delicious. Would definitely return and I think we will try the Potting Shed next time! Highly recommend the Afternoon Tea.

Once again had a terrific lunch at the quirky Potting Shed in Callander, food was excellent, staff are fantastic very friendly and attentive, we had peacocks outside the door entertaining us. We will be back again with friends next week.

I love a day out in the country, to jump in the car or on a bus and leave the city behind. And what do you do once you've finished enjoying the peace and tranquility?Lunch of course.You go for lunch! Callander is one of those stunning Scottish places you can visit without having to travel for hours from the big towns. You can enjoy the wee shops and a donder down the river before heading for a nice meal. For our nice meal we went to a house, a very big house in the country, because our lunch venue was the exquisite Roman Camp Hotel.It is one of those amazing destinations that makes you feel like you're starring in your own romantic movie, you know tree lined driveway, gravel paths, archways, Rose bushes, a Robin landing on your outstretched hand as a string quartet accompanies your every footstep. (maybe some of those are more imagined than real...) The inside is just as stunning as out. It's all high ceilings, elegant paintings and wooden panelling, the epitome of rural luxury, all of its near 400 year heritage very much on display. The hotel makes the most of these spaces as it first invites you into the comfortable lounge for menu perusal, canapés and an aperitif. There is so much to be said for relaxing in an armchair whilst you decide on your dinner and chew over what you are going to chew on. There is that interesting balancing act going on, one where traditional and luxurious tries not to descend into twee, stuffy or heaven forbid pretentious. The Roman Camp does this rather well, the service is professional and unobtrusive, but friendly. The atmosphere refined, certainly, but relaxed and welcoming. Nowhere is this more obvious than in the menu. The chef could have played it straight down the line with classic Scottish fare done well, but instead there's some pretty cheeky twists thrown in. That is what I liked best about the Roman Camp, you are lulled into thinking you are getting solid reliable Mark Darcy, Jamie from Love Actually or even King George VI Colin Firth and instead you get Kingsman Harry Hart instead... Whilst you are busy making your mind up, you are thoughtfully provided with some wee Canapés, just to tantalise you with what is to come. A mini Cheese quiche / tartlet, a haggis bonbon and an assortment of nuts were perfect nibbles to accompany your first drink. Hot and delicious you simply can't wait to see what's coming next. After ordering we continued relaxing in the lounge until we were told our lunch was ready. We bid au revoir to the comfortable lounge and were taken into the restaurant. Well I thought it was my wedding day all over again. The tables are all dressed, candles burned as brightly as the fire in the gorgeous hearth, this place was magical on a grim winters morning, I wonder what it's like at night. We were seated and served freshly baked bread along with our starters, and from here good just got even better. Like I mentioned earlier, any decent Scottish restaurant will serve you Salmon. But this was Organic Salmon floating on a bed of Chestnut & Parsnip Purée, but the real kicker was the Peanut Butter Dressing. Flakey succulent salmon was contrasted by the crisp and crunchy skin, on its own you could tell this was a top quality piece of fish. But combined with the puree and sauce that delivered a well rounded nuttiness as well as a subtle sweetness, pretty much all of your taste buds went into action together. Depending on your fork you could get a different taste profile every time, a beautiful variation on the classic salmon. The Braised Pig Cheek, one of those underrated cuts of meat that we at home seem reluctant to source and cook, but professional kitchens are so keen to serve. Slowly cooked to deliver the melt in the mouth texture that can be found by pulling apart with only a fork. Massive rich Meaty flavours need a bold accompaniment and Red Cabbage with its inherent sweetness is just the ticket. Top this up with some Maple syrup and then add in some lip smacking Soy and again you have a well balanced dish that exercises every part of your palate. Following the success of the starters and the efficient service to prepare us for our main course, expectations were of course running high. We were not disappointed. Perfectly pink Rump of Lamb, tender and juicy rightly took centre stage. But the Sweet & Sour Aubergine, which the lamb rested upon, was a triumph, big bold flavours which complemented the lamb perfectly. Add to the plate literally half a red onion, a tomato and a drizzle of pan juices and you have one of the finest lamb dishes we've had for a long time. Would the Roast Cod be as good. Yes, and then some. The cod in itself, like the salmon one course ago, was delicious, a simply cooked top quality piece of fish, but the dish became outstanding thanks to the accessories. The Langoustine Claw Risotto was so creamy with just the right amount of crustacean to add flavour, without being over-bearing. The surprise addition of skilfully trimmed sweetcorn added another layer of crunchy texture, such a great, well thought out dish. Amazing!After our plates were whisked away the great service continued with a wee crumb down. Love a good crumb down me! Dessert orders were duly noted and a short time later two more fantastic dishes arrived at our table. The first, the cheese selection is always a ready reckoner for any good restaurant. This is all about the quality of the ingredients and it doesn't get much better than some high end unpasteurised fromage. Homemade Quince (naturally) and oatcakes, it's that simple, maybe a nice port would have been the finishing touch, but alas I was driving. The cheese selection was one of the few dishes without any twists, the same cannot be said of the Apple Mousse. Beautifully presented the mousse with a slice of apple and some blackberries was delicate, a refreshing fruity flavour to end the meal. The Pistachio Sponge were little green cubes with a nutty edge to cut through the fruit. But, the Avocado Ice Cream was a stroke of genius. Completely obscure, but a great balancer of the acidic apple, it provided a different sweetness and I would definitely have it again. Like so many of the dishes, this one has been thought through and skilfully executed by the kitchen brigade. Following our desserts we were again shown to the lounge for coffee / tea and petit fours, again made by the clever chefs in the back no doubt. The only disappointment in our whole afternoon was that now our experience was coming to an end, we enjoyed every minute and forkful. The Roman Camp is such a great venue, and with rooms as well its a lovely wee spot to base yourself as you tour Stirlingshire. If the restaurant is too much for you, then the Pottingshed Cafe / Bistro will offer simpler lighter dishes, but under the same skilful chefs watching eye, I imagine it would be excellent as well. The set lunch menu we enjoyed, three courses in the restaurant with canapés and petit fours top and tailing it, was thirty pounds a head, which for the quality of both food and service, I would say was spot on. The Roman Camp should very much be on your list if you are up Callander way, highly recommended by us.

Told about this place by staff in another good restaurant. Food was excellent. Staff great. Setting unusual but great. At a price that beats pubs and better food.

Beautiful location and wedding/ party venue .We visited for afternoon tea very enjoyable with a very professional and attentive young member of staff I think from Liverpool a credit to the Hotel .The food and choice was really good and being Christmas time had beautifully decorated trees and log fires adding to the lovely atmosphere, thanks again

Attended a wedding and dance and thoroughly enjoyed the night. The hotel and the function room was ideal and very nice. Good service and bar facilities and there was also great ice cream served .... BRAVO !!!

Had lunch today with two friends ,unusual setting ,we had lovely lunch and excellent service ,absolutely worth a visit ,when in Callander

Westcot Bed & Breakfast highly recommended Potting Shed Bristo and Coffee Shop. We had dinner and it was the best meal I have ever tasted. I too would highly recommend this hidden gem in Callander.

We reserved a table at the potting shed on a Tuesday night at18.30pm with two adults a 12 year old and a 5year old on a “school night” and did not leave until 20.35pm! The food was ok but the service was lethargic and forgetful. We only had a main course and two deserts, but they took over half an hour to arrive, as the chef had “lost our order”! Not good!

This bistro certainly has a different feel to it, set in the grounds of the hotel and in a former garden outhouse! Internally the premises had been delightfully decorated and the atmosphere with candles was very nice. The dinner menu wasn’t very extensive (about 6 mains) but the food we had was very good. Portions weren’t too large but prices were probably higher than equivalent food elsewhere in the town. Drinks were very expensive. Service was pleasant and efficient. I think that the bistro needs some external lighting, especially along the dark paths, and better signage as one approaches down the drive.

Highly recommend having lunch here. Great location, great service with a smile and not expensive! We'll worth a visit.

Excellent restaurant beaucoup de saveurs dans les plats et l'endroit est romantique à souhaits. Très scottish

We had a reservation for two at the Roman Camp Hotel Restaurant this week. We were 2 of 3 customers that night. We had a drink in the parlor before the meal that was delightful. The sun was just going down and we enjoyed the view of the river flowing by, the peacocks, and the comfortable study chairs.

Most amazing place to have afternoon tea .. the grounds are spectacular and the staff very friendly .. and the sandwiches scones and cakes were delicious

Me and my girlfriend arranged to have dinner here to celebrate her birthday. I must say the food was very good, the desserts were disappointing. The huge problem was the service. The waiters didn’t know what food they were serving, were extremely fast removing your plates, they were nervous and shaky....they were overall a disaster. At one point we were each drinking the same red wine out of 2 different glasses. At the end they made a mistake with the bill that took over 20-30 min to fix. Worse service we have ever had.

We had stopped here on way home for coffee and cake, asked waitress if still serving and she said yes and showed us to our table, placed order, coffees and scones arrived, scones were fine coffees were cold so asked her if we could get hotter coffee,no problem, we had asked for water for the table at beginning too but had to ask when it didn’t arrive, enjoying our scones and half way through coffee waitress came up shouting loudly how she was sorry about coffee being cold but could we leave as 4 more people were in for a meal! Not even finishing drinks or water we got up highly embarrassed, when speaking to her she offered to take 2 drinks off bill, told her that it was unacceptable behaviour, paid and went to find owner in main hotel who was very apologetic and gave us our money back. Took other couples email address and promised to contact them, still waiting! This was on 5th May, owner continues to ignore emails and phone calls, not impressed with service!

After a pleasant weekend in Loch Lomond we were travelling back at stopped of for a coffee at the hotels bistro, we asked if we could get coffee, the waitress was lovely at that point and welcomed us in, we ordered our hot drinks they took ages to come out cold, so we asked for them to be heated up. They were brought back and we were about to start drinking them when a further 4 guests arrived, we were then approached by the waitress and at the top of her voice told to leave as she needed the table. Myself and my company were so embarrassed we left but after she made us pay. Left the bistro went over to the hotel to make a complaint, manager seemed lovely, was so apologetic said he would deal with the person involved and would get back to me, this was on the 5/5/19, and still to this day I am still waiting on a response. I have phoned and emailed no reply. This is absolutely disgusting behaviour, no respect for there passing trade. I was promised a voucher or something to compensate my embarrassment. If this is how they treat tourist I do not under stand how they get business. My name is carol Buchan and if they are reading these reviews I would hope to think something is done about it. I for one would not recommend this place to anyone

Pre-dinner drinks and hors d'oeuvre in the bar, and then into the restaurant for their ‘taster’ menu. 6 courses of exquisite food. Staff were friendly and attentive, food was excellent and wine menu complete. A very enjoyable and civilised dinner. The restaurant was quiet and not full. I’d be wary of bringing children.

My husband and I had a fabulous meal here; the service was friendly and attentive. Although the A la Carte menu looked inviting, we went for the taster menu and were so glad we did; there was nothing that wasn't a pleasant surprise or delight - the roe deer was a revelation.

To have a restaurant of this calibre near our home is such a treat. Situated in a fine old building you enter through a portcullis style door to be greeted with an open fire. It really has atmosphere but it also has style, great service and a fantastic tasting menu. Thoughtful, well presented dishes with great flavours. We were treated like kings. One of our best Scottish meal experiences.

The choice for each course was limited to 2, however, the food was amazing, with service to match. Very helpful, and attentive. Only negative comment would be that building is a little tired and would benefit from some money spent on it. It was a bitterly cold day, and rooms could have been warmer.

Very good, polite service. Excellent food. An old building with real coal fires which gave a lovely homely feeling. The only thing missing was some background music. There was only two other couples and ourselves in the sitting room pre lunch and then in the restaurant, at times the quiet was strained.

Great service and great food. Very picturesque. Would recommend to everyone for a lovely lunch which is what we were there for.

Really great food and atmosphere. Good options for the kids too. With the beautiful surroundings and the fires burning its a lovely way to spend a January afternoon with family!

Just enjoyed a lovely afternoon tea within spectacular grounds at this hotel. The tea flowed and the food was plentiful. Thoroughly recommend!

Two day stay here could not have been more fabulous. Helpful and incredibly attentive staff, brilliant inventive top quality fine dining food , the best afternoon tea,Come here and treat yourself

Had a fantastic dinner here from the tasting menu. Staff were incredibly attentive and friendly.

A fantastic find. Lovely staff, nice decor, not too pricey. Great food. Freshly cooked and well presented. ( much cheaper and less formal than main hotel).

Myself and my gorgeous partner have been looking forward to our visit to the Potting shed at the Roman Camp in Callander. Evening meal, such a quaint setting. Lovely entrance from the Main Street, which requires more lumins. Very dark.

Excellent accommodation well appointed suite full of old world charm. 5 course taster meal was delicious, well presented and nicely balanced. Staff attentive, friendly and discreet. Highly recommended.

We have returned to the Roman Camp after over 10 years. We absolutely love the whole experience. Grand Afternoon Tea is amazing, each little piece was delicious, homemade, savoury and sweet components were full of flavour, fresh, beautifully presented and served but impeccable and friendly staff. The ambience of the library with a secret chapel, the smell of coal fireplace with the sounds of river Teith outside the window adds up to truly unique feel. We will definitely be back...

Great starters, especially chicken liver parfait and bread with butter. Mains were ok, but dry chicken (overcooked) and small portion of lamb with no seasoning. I recommend you crushed salt as an improvement for customers.

Le Roman Camp Hôtel a ouvert un café-bistro attenant à son établissement principal baptisé « Pottingshed ».

We discovered Roman Camp by accident as we were wandering around Callender. We went for drink and wandered the gardens by a beautiful stream. Although the gardens could use a bit of work, they are still stunning. The dinner was exceptional and after dinner drinks in the drawing room as the sun set was a great way to end the meal. New manager, Gordon Minnes, (2 days in!) was particularly attentive and made excellent recommendations. I strongly recommend the restaurant (we did not stay at hotel - no availaibility).

Le service est pompeux et le menu est cher mais le Chef fait l'effort de proposer un accommodement des plats qui diffère de ce que l'on rencontre habituellement, avec succès.

I have been here 4 or 5 times and have always been impressed. The building is very impressive and the standard of food and service has always been high.

What a gem this place is. The setting alone on the banks of the Teith river is relaxing but the hotel management and staff deserve credit, from the ambience of the dining areas and the quality of service which is outstanding and then to the creative and beautifully presented food. We have dined here a few times now and it always impresses. Firstly relaxing in the lounge or bar areas where you are served drinks and canapes while you peruse the menu for the day. Once your order is taken, you are led to your table when you food is ready to be served. The beautiful table settings are formal yet elegant, with a burning fire setting the scene. The little touches are appreciated such as the chef's palate cleansers between courses. Last night we tried the ravioli with spinach and ricotta before the veal mains which was delicious. Desserts are always a treat too and not to be missed. We are so glad we discovered this gem of a restaurant in the Trossachs.

Roman Camp does terrific lunches. Top quality food, beautifully prepared and presented, with excellent service. All of this for £30! It's amazing. If I lived in Callander I would eat lunch there every other day.

We stumbled upon this place by accident. On our way from Edinburgh to Glencoe and decided we needed a lunch break. Son used GPS to find the nearest place, which was Roman Camp. We were greeted by peacocks and eventually found our way to the restaurant. We were seated in a cute room (conservatory?) with windows overlooking the garden. It was quiet and different since we were sitting on sofas and stuffed chairs. We had sandwiches and ciders and chatted. It was cozy and nice. Everyone enjoyed it. After we finished, we explored the lovely grounds and saw more peacocks before resuming our drive. A lovely break. The hotel seems a magical place for a wedding. Would definitely stay there if given the opportunity.

Fantastic evening meal - worth the £55 per person charge - all courses excellent, even the ones I would not normally oder myself, so some new experiences and tastes.

Very special indeed. Served in military style and so perfect. The food is just a delight. Each course is a work of art.

We had a very special evening here for a birthday celebration. Our order was taken in the library which is beautiful and exceptionally comfortable. We advised the restaurant of a dairy/gluten allergy in advance and it was wonderful to have a full choice from the...

In our touring of Scotland, we were taken here for a lunch stop, and the grounds and inside are gorgeous. Lot of history here to see and very quaint. Great place to eat.

I'm not a foodie, but people come here just for the food. The restaurant has a lot of awards and we enjoyed our meal. My husband loved his - he had the price fixe menu with lemon sole and steak. The dining room is elegant...

We wanted somewhere special to celebrate 30th wedding anniversary while on holiday near Callander last week of August. Roman Camp stood out from the rest (though website undersells them), booked dinner for 6 and (for once) was not disappointed. The place has an old school,...

We had a great evening meal for 4. We started by having drinks in the lounge looking out over the river, where we were also served some canapés. The decor feels like you have stepped back in time to great Scottish country house, with open fires and a homely feel. We had a walk around the gardens before our meal, make sure you allow time for this as you don't want to miss them.

The tasting menu was excellent and included vegetarian alternatives. Several memorable dishes and the hake was outstanding. Service was impeccable - rather formal but will make it feel special if you like being pampered. Your napkin will be placed on your lap and the wine poured for you. We were started off with aperitifs and canapés in the lounge and then led through to our lovely table in the dining room which looked absolutely spectacular.
