Stirling Castle Unicorn Cafe in Stirling

Very over priced apart from Egg Sandwich at £3.50. Sausage Roll (not very large) and poxy bit of salad, £11.60, having a laugh, not even option for Sausage Roll on its' own. Scone £ 4.60, nice, but not that nice. Will keep my money in my pocket next time as these are rip-off prices.

Another excellent Cafe in a Historic landmark. Prices are good, scones were delicious and service was great. What more can you ask for.

Stopped for a quick morning bite on our visit to Stirling castle. The choice is limited before 11 AM, however what they had was yum. The pastries were of very good quality, the coffee was excellent and the prices were fair. Shoutout to the very welcoming staff, they were very kind and friendly. All in a good experience.

Soup was excellent, and Dundee cake. Good location in the castle, eating in old vaults. Not the cheapest, but worth it for quality and location.

Good food for a snack. You can get food to go if you want to eat on the road. Staff were friendly.

Loved eating at King Charles 4th cafe. Bread was delicious on our club sandwiches.

Loved the variety and the taste. Loved the freshly baked scones…

Located inside Stirling castle. Decent cafe. Bit expensive though. Extremely friendly staff.

Visited the restaurant on the 7th September for lunch. Coffee machine not working!! Had the beefburgers in bun with fries & a cold drink. The drink was luke warm as were the chips, nice burger though. Overpriced for what we got.

Tried to find this place but think location is wrong on map?

many delicacies to be found. two stars docked tho..:/ avoid the fish as dishes seemed to have been sitting out for long periods

Usually 5 star for me being a regular to the castle it would have been lovely on a Sunny day to complete the visit with a wine and cake. Until recently this was possible, so I don't know what's happened or why wine is off the menu. Think I've had my last experience in Unicon Cafe which is sad as the staff are great.

Amazing scones and good coffee 👍

Overpriced, next to no selection of food. £9.50 for a ham roll. Italian deli roll that was just cheese and salad. Bowl of soup for 5.50. Save money and walk down the hill and try one of the many decent cafés in Stirling.

Food was good, we had a baguette, cake and coffee and it was lovely. Slightly higher price but not unexpected in the location. Also a great view.

Went for a visit this weekend - the staff were lovely the fruit scones and jam were delicious shame about the wooden knife but understandable

Only takeaway due to covid, but full of sandwiches, £5 kids box lunches, warm soup... And a great view on the roof!

Great staff, lovely snacks. Stopped for a carrot cake and hot chocolate after our visit at Stirling Castle. Line moved quickly and the carrot cake was the best!

Great service and friendly staff.

Tea and cakes - a welcome break from the pouring rain. Atmospheric in the vaults. What you’d expect from a tourist attraction cafe, tasty but a bit over priced.

2) 55 por 5 cuñas: tienes que reírte, revisamos el recibo cuando llegamos a casa. Alimentos para la venta en una mesa en el medio de la cafetería - antihigénicos.Visité con nuestra familia de 4 en un día frío de invierno. Después de un fabuloso recorrido por Stephen, cometimos el error de parar aquí para almorzar, ya que habíamos leído una crítica en el periódico local el día antes de exaltar las virtudes de este café. . Nunca repetiría el ejercicio y nunca volveré a confiar en ese escritor de viajes.Stirling Castle puedes hacerlo mucho mejor.

Si vous avez l'explorer pass ou un des membership, vous aurez une réduction sur votre plateau. On s'est régalé, on y a manger avant d'enchainer sur la visite du chateau. La soupe maison est très bonne les scones aussi. Prix correct malgrè le fait que ce soit directement au sein du chateau.

Muy bien ubicado en el castillo, realmente disfrutamos nuestro descanso para almorzar en este hermoso y pequeño café. Fue realmente impresionante lo bien que esta instalación se ha escondido en el espacio y se ha mezclado para no ser una monstruosidad.Mucho más importante, la comida era realmente genial y había una buena variedad para elegir. El equipo también fue muy servicial y respondió todas mis preguntas sobre ingredientes y alergias. Me encantaría volver a comer aquí de nuevo.En nuestra visita (que fue un día ajetreado para el castillo) tuvimos que esperar para obtener un asiento después de comprar nuestra comida. Puede que haya sido mejor esperar una mesa antes de ordenar en retrospectiva.

Cafe us over-priced and trying to be fancier than needs be. I had a siracha chicken wrap that cost £5.50 and I could only eat half of it as not only was it dripping with oil but lacked any kind of strong flavour.

Lieu implanté entre les murs du château, très belle salle. Personnel sympathique. Bien achalandé aussi bien en salé qu'en sucré. Lieu agréable et pratique

Lekkere cakes en taartjes met koffie in gezellige setting

We had scones, jams and I had an excellent slice of Dundee cake. Drinks were good too. Reasonable value, about £20 for 4.

Good choice for lunch and the hot food was hot. I had the fried panko crumbed chicken with salad which was fresh and tasty. The tables could have been wiped cleaner but they were very busy and I was lucky to find a table. You help yourself mostly along the servery then pay for you meal. A welcome and comfortable rest after exploring the castle.

La comida era excelente, los precios no eran demasiado, se puede esperar esto de cafeterías y restaurantes ubicados dentro de puntos turísticos. . . Siempre me ha resultado una lástima. Al decir esto, la comida era realmente deliciosa y disfrutamos de nuestro almuerzo rápido antes de visitar el castillo. Parecía haber una amplia gama de opciones para el almuerzo, y sin embargo ambos nos apegamos a los sándwiches clásicos para ahorrar nuestros centavos. El personal fue excelente, una muchacha hizo todo lo posible para llenar el dispensador de agua para que podamos llenar nuestras botellas. Si estás contento de pasar un poquito y estás de humor para una selección clásica, entonces echa un vistazo al Unicornio.

Depending on what time of the day, you visit, depends on what you can have. All in all well worth a visit.

It is very highly priced but the items of of good quality. Staff very friendly are trying their best to keep the place clean.

Dieses Café ist das einzig überzeugende in dieser Burganlage. Gutes Angebot und sehr freundliche Bedienung.

Кафе для перекуса в замке. Выбор небольшой, в основном сладости. Если повезет, достанется место с видом на окрестности.

Si une petite attente et un prix légèrement gonflé ne vous dérangent pas, ça va. Bon, portion généreuse. Et de l'espace pour manger. On a pris un repas et c'était parfait pour 2.

So glad they serve beer and wine. Food was fresh and staff extremely friendly! Enjoyed taking food outside and enjoying our picnic lunch on the castle lawn with gorgeous views of countryside.

One of those rushed, 'file past with your trays' places. Small counter, with very limited selection of fare. Some vegan and vegetarian options are available, though. Counter staff pretty efficient, and were friendly and helpful. Food not too appetising, and food and drink quite over-priced - but par for the course, I guess, at this kind of place. The ugliest and least talented bunch of paintings ever seen are on the walls and are for sale for a small fortune each.

Enjoyed a lovely coffee and muffin after our visit to the castle! Reasonable prices too!

Arrived here at 3:30pm hoped to grab something small but hot/warm, the hot food was gone even thought it says hot food etc throughout the day, saw there was soup still in the 2 pots, by the time we got a cake for afters and turned around the soup had gone, we asked and they said they’d just thrown them both out, no explanation and now no hot or warm food, being diabetic this is quite an inconvenience as their website say it’s open and serves all day whilst the castle is open. Won’t come back again especially considering I couldn’t book entry tickets online and it cost £2 more for my wife and I on the door, very disappointing

After exploring the castle, we popped in for lunch. We enjoyed baguettes & Dundee cake, that was delicious. Hot food & drink was available. It is quite busy, did take awhile & tables are dotted in ‘Cave like’ rooms.

We were really impressed with the soup that we had here while visiting Stirling Castle. It was very tasty and obviously made in house. They also offer a variety of hot meals and sandwiches. Prices are reasonable.

Nice little cafe tucked away on the right as you enter.

Usually, you do not expect that much from a historical locations little cafe. This one is real nice and worth a try. Great deserts, fine sandwiches, and lovely eating areas inside and out. We tried a couple of the sandwiched, warmed, and the Cock-a-leekie soup. It was all very good. Chance of rain, (I know; rain in Scotland) so we dined inside. Very fine lunch

This made a very pleasant break from the rain. The food was good, attractively presented and the staff was accommodating.

Conveniently placed within Stirling Castle the cafe is a great place to rest your feet and have a snack. Friendly staff and outside seating for fine weather.

Hacía frío y llovía, pero el servicio encantador, el personal amable. El chocolate caliente y los pasteles eran deliciosos.

Almorcé después de recorrer el castillo y me sorprendió gratamente. La cafetería tiene muy buena comida a un precio razonable. La mayoría de los cafés en castillos son demasiado caros y no muy buenos, pero el cuidado de los unicornios fue todo lo contrario. Vale la pena una parada en.

Gran lugar para almorzar, un bocadillo o un té por la tarde, dentro del Castillo de Stirling. El día que lo visitamos estaba muy ocupado, por lo que es bastante una cola, así que asegúrese de obtener todas sus selecciones antes de hacer cola y pagar o tiene que hacer cola nuevamente. Muy buena comida sabrosa y sana, nos encantó. Muy difícil de resistir a todos los hermosos pasteles que buscan también.

Café localizado dentro do castelo de Stirling. Simples mas espaçoso oferece cafés e comidas para lanches rápidos. Tem bolinhos com geleia bem gostosos e um capuccino bem frito.

We had an inviting bowl of soup that warmed us up on a cold damp day. Lots of hot food choices on offer and plenty of seating in the alcoves.

Could probably be the worst food I've ever eaten... Avoid at all costs.

It was great to get out of the cold and wet! Fantastic cakes, good selection of sandwiches. I had lentil soup and it was delicious! Also a good variety of herbal teas, coffees and hot chocolate. Reasonable prices so worth a visit!

These kind of cafes associated with tourist locations are usually of dubious quality. Not the case here. We had drinks and cake - I had coffee (Latte) and it was of a very good standard. The dundee cake was moist and not dried out. It was lovely and clean and the staff were great.

We went as a family to Stirling Castle and stopped at this café for lunch. There is a meal deal for children, which we got for our daughter. We were pretty dismayed to see the single-use plastic that arrived with it. There was a single-use plastic box for the sandwich and a single-use plastic bottle for a drink of milk - and a lot of other plastic in the café too. When there are plenty of alternatives - a glass or cup for milk, a plate or even a cardboard box for the sandwich if it really must be wrapped up - it’s hard to see plastic being used in this way. We also felt that £9 was a bit expensive for an adult’s coffee and sandwich. The food was pretty good but we would only come back if the plastic situation was addressed.

A wonderful cafe with a wide selection to choose from including soups, sandwiches and baked goods. The seating area is very nice. Perfect way to begin or end your tour of Stirling Castle. Prices are very fair. Enjoyable meal.

Normally a cafe attached to a tourist attraction is mediocre at best.

Gutes Essen um wenig Pfünder. Selbstbedienung, frisches Essen. Sehr freundlich. Location in der Burg.

We went in January so no queues! Delicious potato and leek soup, good service and plenty of seating.

Great place for a quick bite before seeing the castle.

I had a squash and lasagna dish that I can still bring to mind a week later. It was rich and creamy without the cream, nutty with flavor. I didn't miss meat. The warmth and flavor was so ideal on a rainy day I cut around the noodle so my gluten free husband could taste. I will say baby cries echo well in the high arches walls but it was so good, I wouldn't rush it for anything. I didn't even snap a food photo, I just dug in. I wouldn't miss the town of Stirling but the cafe brings more than I'd guess for an onsite cafe. The architecture was worth a look too, they glass ceiling bisects the arches. With the rain, it made it feel light but intimate.

Nice display of typical Scottish cakes and scones etc. Coffee was good. The staff were a little dour I thought - I don’t think they were exhibiting a high degree of hospitality industry skills. Maybe just an off-day?

O café estava ótimo.Mas é um ponto de apoio para quem está de visita ao castelo. Atendimento excelente. Todos muito amáveis. Ambiente muito agradável.

Popped in for a takeaway coffee while visiting Stirling Castle. Cappuccino was good, service quick and accepted card payment. (Considered buying a scone but unwilling to fork out £3 - bit pricey!)

Nous avons déjeuner ici, au milieu de notre visite du château. C'est très agréable de pouvoir s'interrompre pour aller manger. Le choix est varié, notamment au niveau des desserts. J'ai pris un potage que j'ai adoré et mon conjoint un sandwich. Les prix sont correct et la qualité également.

Visitamos para café y pastel mientras en el castillo. Eligió 3 pasteles diferentes y todos estaban en el lado seco, no parecían frescos en absoluto. No se apresuraría a volver.

We stopped by after Stirling Castle. The food was excellent! We had Scottish salmon that was perfect! It's a cafeteria style so no wait staff serving you. The food is great quality and value.

Estábamos en Stirling para visitar el castillo. Después de comprar nuestros boletos y entrar decidimos comenzar nuestra visita con un café en la cafetería.

I was happy to see the restaurant because it was rainy and a bit cool. An easy pop in for a bite and a hot cup of coffee.

Excellent lunch after a good walk around the castle. Good vegetarian and vegan options :) Alcohol available as well if you fancy a beer with your soup and sandwich! Very good.

We toured the castle from noon until about 2pm (which was awesome). We still had the museum to look at when I started to get hangry. We went to look at the cafe in the off chance they would have anything for vegans. They did! We had a BBQ jackfruit wrap, lentil soup, chips and drinks. Everything was surprisingly delicious and affordable. Best castle/attraction cafe I've been to in a long time! Highly recommend eating here when visiting the castle.

Food was great and the lines were not too long and moved quickly. Castle is also great!

Es la cafetería ubicada al lado del castillo.

We had a tea and some food. Lovely food and good services from the staff. Highly recommended to everyone.

Aan het eind van ons bezoek aan Stirling Castle de keuze gemaakt om in het genoemde café te eten. Eten was uit de kunst en vriendelijk personeel. Wonder boven wonder was het niet zo druk rond etenstijd en hebben we op een goede locatie onze lunch gehad. Aanrader

Caffè all'interno del castello di Stirling, con possibilità di mangiare qualcosa con servizio self-service. Considerato che la visita al castello richiede un po' di tempo, la sosta al caffè è quasi necessaria e non è male.

Nous avons appréciés notre pause repas dans cet établissement. Les sandwichs et wraps étaient très bon, frais, de qualité

Pranzo con splendida vista sulla vallata e sul monumento dedicato a wallace. Il piccolo ristorante propone qualche piatto caldo e poi una serie di panini; Ne abbiamo presi 2 al prezzo di 5 sterline cadauno e non erano affatto male. Per un pranzo veloce in attesa della visita del castello va benissimo.

Es war mehr der Hunger der uns in das Stirling Castle Unicorn Cafe trieb, als die Erwartungen eines Restaurants in solch einer touristischen Anlage.

We visited the castle whilst on holiday and stopped in here for a light lunch. I had a baguette and my wife a scone. Very busy as main holiday season and all these places have difficulty coping with the numbers of people. However found a seat. The baguette was freshly made and good as was the scone. Staff friendly but busy. Decor clean and tidy and typical of Scottish/English Heritage places

Nice interior, but unfortunately we were at the castle around 9.30 am and we were told that there is no chance for breakfast since they start serving meals at 11. Strange considering that at 9 am the castle was full of tourists, but despite the crowd in the cafe there was only two other guests. I believe, that simple breakfast menu (paninis, sandwiches, etc.) would help a lot.

Trots att detta ligger precis vid fästningen, var maten prisvärd och vällagad. Vi fick in fel rätt, vilket snabbt åtgärdades och kompenserades med extra pommes.

Pretty standard museum sort of cafe but nicely presented, fair prices and soup and cake were delicious.

The people working behind the food counters were lovely, though one of them put a bottle of sparkling water on my tray without asking. I then took my tray across to the cashier who incorrectly put my wrap through as a steak pie which is double the price.

Sandwiches, soup and cake were all very nice. We found the cafes attached to museums and historic attractions to have higher quality food than typically found in the US. (The Smithsonian mostly serves fast food.)

expensive but the location is quiet good.

The Stirling Castle Unicorn Cafe was delicous and hit the spot. The prices were fair, the food good, and great service from the counter staff.

After waiting in queue for the castle to open we headed over to the coffee shop. What a disappointment! Stood around for 5 minutes only to be told there was only pre-prepared food available for sale - why would they have been too busy to say this right away or to put up a sign to make it easier for would be guests?

Both soups were vegan. I had a toasted jackfruit wrap which was very fine. Vegan biscuits available! Well done Unicorn Restaurant!!

The Unicorn cafe, which is located within the walls of the Stirling Castle is a fair choice for those, that bring or get a little hunger while visiting the legendary Castle. As you can probably imagine the menu and type of operating system is catered to tourism (of course it is), but the quality and pricing of the goods sold are fair in reference. I have had much worse in similar attractions and while one should not necessarily expect a haute cuisine type meal, does this do the job in a fairly decent manner!

We arrived at Stirling castle in the afternoon, and decided to take a tour first before eating. By the time we were done with the tour, there was no more hot food being served at the café, even though the castle was open until 6 PM. Fortunately, they still had some little pre-made sandwiches and cakes.There is seating inside, but some great benches up stairs and on the lawn with beautiful views.

We called in at about 11:30 for a drink and a snack. Decent selection of soup, sandwiches etc and cakes. I had a Latte and a piece of shortbread which was very nice. Nice venue down below street level but well lit and roomy. Well worth a visit when visiting the castle.

Just a nice place to have lunch

Wasn’t sure if the food here would be good. Got the salmon, potatoes and salad. Everything was excellent, fresh and reasonably priced.

petite cafétéria dans les réserves du château, bon, rapide et cadre dépaysant. Miam le carrot cake !

The food was ok. I ordered a breaded chicken sandwich with Cesar salad and a bowl of soup. The reason my review is 3 stars is because of the soup. It is self service and the soup is too hot. I was pouring it into my bowl and a little dripped onto the outside of the bowl and onto my hand holding the bowl. I now have a blister on my pinky finger. There should be a caution sign. They shouldn't have the soup so hot and if they keep it the way it is, then they shouldn't have it self service. Elderly people and families with little kids visit the cafe.

Μετά (ή και πριν) από μια περιήγηση στο κάστρο κρίνεται απαραίτητη μια στάση στο καφέ του μονόκερου... Σχετικά μεγάλος χώρος υπό την αρχιτεκτονική του κάστρου, ιδανικό για όλες τις ηλικίες και γευστικές επιθυμίες. Σίγουρα συναγωνίζεται επάξια την βασιλική κουζίνα με τις άφθονες επιλογές σε καφέ, σνακ, φαγητό και γλυκό, και οι τιμές πολύ προσιτές.

The soup you had to pour into the bowl yourself which ment that it dripped on the side of the bowl then the soup itself made me ill and the vegetables where to hard they where still frozen

I visited the unicorn cafe today with my 6 year old daughter.

Pricey but expected considering it is the only eatery on site.

Excellent café at the Stirling castle with a good selection of hot foods and fast service. Good way to end the visit.

Gâteaux délicieux certainement faits maison.
