The Joinery Coffee Shop in Perth & Kinross

Soup and scones is probably the best locally. Always generous portions often bring friends and or family. Also having a loyalty cards works too

We have lunched here a few times and the staff are always friendly , food is good and attractively presented. Definitely recommend

Wow, what a find on our way down to England. Ordered a toastie and a kids sandwich. The filling was pouring out and my daughter really enjoyed her sandwich. Staff were so lovely and welcoming despite it being a really busy time.

Myself and a friend visited to grab a morning roll before playing golf. We parked in the car park and popped into the shop next door prior to heading to the cafe. On arriving back at the cafe we were met by an aggressive woman going crazy about using their car park. I very quickly explained we were coming in for a roll but had just popped into the shop before hand. This was answered by complaints about how we were parked. Unbelievable. I did try and retort by saying there were no marked parking spaces or signage explaining how they would like us to park but this was just met with more aggressiveness. A simple “no problem, would you mind parking over there” would have been the best response. After this we decided to leave and were told not to come back which we have no problem with. We took a drive 1 minute along the road to a different cafe called flour which had a much nicer vibe and the staff were superb and polite. Give this place a miss if you don’t want Fanny Cradock chasing you with a rolling pin.

Great soup and sandwiches were stuffed. Best I have had in a long time. Took a cheese scone away. Omg it was delicious!! Very nice Staff.

Great service, welcoming atmosphere and such good food quickly served. Staff are always so nice when I come in and shower my baby with such lovely comments and attention. Such a relaxed setting with pretty art items to browse at the side tables. Handy little car park and ramp access too.

Fantastic lunch yesterday. Food delicious, great choice on menu and everything cooked to order. Delicious selection of homemade cakes as well. If too full you can get them to take away. All the staff are so welcoming and attentive. Lovely atmosphere and tables well spaced out. Area at the back has a small selection of toys to keep children entertained. They also have a small selection of local crafts to buy which are lovely. Well worth a visit, you won't be disappointed.

The Joinery is one of the best. Great service, great food and setting. Food was just what the doctor ordered and cakes and coffee were excellent. Definitely going back.

We came here for a friend’s catch up for lunch and chat. We had a table booked. However 45 mins later we were told we needed to move on because the table had been booked for someone else. Really !! We expressed our unhappiness but it fell on deaf ears because they said we couldn’t stay due to the table being booked. That’s the end of coming here the food is okay I had a tuna sandwich but it was a bit tasteless. Sorry but I won’t be back !!

Stopped in by for a spot of lunch. The team are always very welcoming. We had soup and toasties which were both delicious. We will be back!

Amazing food, great staff and Ann makes the best scones EVER. Trust me I am a "Sconeista" 😄 and have tasted many, MANY scones. Fabulous 👌

Haven't been here in ages and wasn't disappointed. Had the soup and sandwich deal...it was delicious. Service was excellent. I will be back again and would be quite happy to sit here alone.

Had coffee and cake in the morning, then soup and sandwiches for lunch. Everything was very tasty and big portions. Would definitely recommend eating and drinking there.

You'll not find a better sandwich anywhere else. Fillings are fresh and plentiful. Prices have crept up since we were last in but that's pretty commonplace these days unfortunately. I'm knocking one point off for the tiniest teapots I've ever seen, though the staff will gladly supply hot water to top it up.

Call regularly for lunch. Everything is beautifully cooked and the staff are so friendly. Scones and tray bakes are brilliant.

It's not often that you find a wee gem of a place. The food is amazing - cakes are homemade and delicious! The service is excellent and they go out of their way to accommodate you. We recently asked for something that wasn't on the menu that day but fortunately they still had the ingredients and we're happy to do it. The soup is home made & tasty, the sandwiches are overflowing and the salads are so fresh. Lovely to also see that they use local suppliers. I would highly recommend a visit to the Joinery.

Food is fabulous, nice relaxed warm friendly atmosphere. Had coronation chicken sandwiches served with side salad and crisps great value for money. Wait until you try the tray bakes. I struggled to choose one they all looked great. Most definitely be back.

This is a great cafe for snacks, lunch and scones. Also all the cakes. The staff are really friendly and the food is great.

Stopped for coffees and quick bites while exploring Perthshire & Angus. Staff were friendly and welcoming on entry. The interior has a modern design in one half of the cafe, and the other half has a homely look. There's even a fireplace in the middle of the cafe, which looks like it gets used. As it was only a quick bite, I got a cappuccino and a fruit pie. Pie was a bit sweet for my taste, but coffee was excellent. Overall, a nice refuelling stop if exploring the area especially as the cafe also has a private car park.

We were very pleased and impressed with this cafe. We were warmly welcomed and were impressed with the expentive lunch menu and superb range of cakes and scones on display. The soup and sandwich was delicious (vegetarian soup) and the jacket potato was perfectly cooked and well filled. We would definitely return here for a good quality, reasonably priced meal.

The huge menu of eggs sausages or bacon are all 'cooked' in a microwave. If you're looking for a breakfast roll stay clear, worst roll I've had in my life

Called in yesterday as I passed through Meigle bought a coffee and cheese scone. Nothing remarkable there you may think! Well let me tell you that was THE BEST cheese scone I have ever tasted. So much so, I went back today for another one. The coffee was great too and such friendly staff. Definitely a 5 star place

Fantastic gem of a place! Wonderful friendly staff, delicious food, coffee was very tasty and we will certainly return as soon as possible. Covid measures are just right, we felt safe.

Helpful staff and good Covid precautions. We had soup and cheese scone which was very good. Good size coffee and we felt they had good Covid precautions. Reasonable prices, best to call and book a table if your are going at a peak time

Great food and lovely atmosphere. Very friendly staff and I look forward to one day trying their legendary Coronation Chicken which has always sold out by the time we get here!!!

Visited today again for the third or so time since reopening. Friendly staff as always and great service. Lovely food and great to see so much care taken over social distancing and keeping everything clean. Would recommend to anyone - you will feel totally safe. Well done to Ann and team!

Gluten free picnic a treat for my daughter and granddaughter both celiac and other family members Lots of lovely food very generous filled sandwiches and delicious tray bakes All of the family loved it well done and thanksHope to be out to see you all soon

while it is good to see things have been put in place around COVID 19 , I think the implementation is totally OTT.. Half the coffee shop shut off for staff. Staff didnt appear to know which tables were booked and those that were free. Soup was served in disposal CUP with a tiny single use , wooden spoon. When ordering tea , at the counter, was asked if we took milk in our tea... Tea came in disposable cup with milk already added.. It's not as if they don't have a dishwasher. Anyway we won't be back...

Nice experience here last week while staying in a nearby cottage. Lovely home made baking and sandwiches on offer. Used their outside eating area, fully sanitised and dog friendly. Staff made sure of safe distancing with good service and even had time to treat our dog to fresh water. Some great gifts available in small shop annexe and overall a well worthwhile stopping off place.

Thank you to the joinery for their wonderful gluten free afternoon tea, it says served 2 but could easily have served 4, wonderful to take to the park for a family day out!

I have been to The Joinery Coffee Shop twice in the past week with my 6th month old daughter to meet friends and family. On both occasions the staff have been friendly, helpful and the service was great. The food was delicious on both occasions and made to order. The highlight of my visits without a doubt were their traybakes, they were so so good! I have a serious sweet tooth and love all things cakes. You will struggle to find a better traybake in Tayside! This little coffee shop is definitely worth a visit!

Been here twice now, once for coffee and cake in the afternoon, once for an early lunch of soup and sandwich and both times came away stuffed and delighted! Coffee is freshly brewed, all the cakes are made on the premises and there is a huge selection to choose from. I had the coffee/walnut while my mother had a chunk of the tiffin. Was almost too much! On our second visit, we had an early lunch on the way to Pitlochry theatre. Soups and sandwiches, very generous portions, again, almost too much. We actually wrapped some of our sandwiches in our napkins for later :-)Again, everything is freshly made on the premises, very well prepared, presented, great flavours and original as well as traditional fillings. You won't go hungry and you won't be sorry! They also do plenty vegetarian and vegan options. Staff are very friendly, cheerful and knowledgeable, service is good and the place is relaxed and comfy. There is a big open fire and plenty seating near or away from the flames. Will definitely be back!

Another enjoyable snack lunch, the sandwiches are freshly prepared, generously filled with a variety of fillings, there is a choice of soups, staff are friendly and there is on site parking.

Lovely friendly atmosphere. We had soup and scones, intending to follow up with cake and coffee. Sadly we had no room for the cake.... ah well, will just have to return. There are some interesting bits and pieces for sale, lovely carved wood and fun stools, for example. I was very impressed that there was plenty of choice for veggies and that the wrap of the day was vegan. Free parking at the entrance seems to fill up really quickly but it is easy enough to find alternatives nearby.

I’ve been here twice recently with my mum and, as always, we loved it! The soup and sandwich deal is great! The soups are always delicious and the sandwiches are freshly prepared and on lovely bread.

We called into this interesting cafe after visiting Glen Isla for family matters. The menu was varied and enticing. The food that was served by friendly staff; was tasty and wholesome.

Stopped off here midway through a long bike ride. The log burner was on & we enjoyed sweet potato, chilli & coconut soup. Portion looked slightly smaller than anticipated (I was really hungry!) but needn’t have worried it was thick & filling and a good chunk of homemade bread on the side. Toasties /bacon rolls satisfied the kids. Rounded off with good coffee & home baking. Would definitely go again! Also very reasonably priced woodcraft & other gifts for sale.

I always love coming here. The soups and sandwiches are always delicious! Is there a chance there could be a soup and toastie combination too? (Maybe there is and I didn’t spot it). Everything is always so fresh and tasty!

Great lunch as usual. The staff are so nice, friendly and helpful. Soup and scone deal is a nice change. Paninis with a varied choice of fillings are always good. Tray bakes look fantastic but no room left, this time!! We will definitely be back.

We came for holidays with family and the service was excelent, the food aswell. The restaurant is lovely and we recommend it 100%.

Lovely selection of cakes, traybakes and goodies. The savoury food looked delicious too although we had had a big breakfast so stuck with coffee and cake. The cappuccino was up there in top 10 best ever

We visited here for lunch on a very cold and windy day. We were lucky enough to get a seat near the roaring fire which was very welcome. We both had soup which was delicious and what you expect good soup to be like. Thick and wholesome and not watered down or just tasting like a stock cube with some veg in it. The staff were very pleasant and service was quick. There is parking available but the spaces are quite tight for those who are perhaps not so able to manoeuvre out a tight spot.

Love this coffee shop... great food, big portions, helpful staff.. all in a nice surrounding. My wee grannies favourite place to have lunch when I take her out a drive.

We have visited the Joinery regularly for years and always enjoyed coffee and cakes/scones. We recently had lunch for the first time and this was to a high standard. The counter staff are friendly and efficient. Would definitely recommend.

Get there early to taste the super home baked scones. Tasty, especially with unsalted butter and raspberry jam. Comfy seating, warm atmosphere, good selection of hand made gifts at sensible prices. Our local, despite being 6 miles away.

We were (are) house hunting in the area and this place was a great find. Lovely cafe food at a great price. Nothing not to like!

My husband comes here as a “coffee stop” when out cycling and was determined I should try it as it was great - he wasn’t wrong!

The staff knew we were visiting the museum today, and were delighted to set up a long table for us (14) to enjoy 'afternoon tea' after our visit.

As usual the staff were welcoming and friendly. The broccoli and Stilton soup lovely, there is usually a good choice of soups, panini really nice with a good choice of fillings. Scones are the best especially the cheese scones and raspberry jam great. The choice of cakes looked fabulous was way too much after our meal and just couldn’t manage one. Next time.

Lunch. Only table free was two low sofas. Ok we can do this. Ordered a tuna mayo with onion panini and a bacon Brie and cranberry panini with a black coffee and a cappuccino. Coffee was lovely, but the tuna panini arrived Luke warm with no onion. Simple error but going by the queue at the counter there was no point sorting it. A few crisps and a small salad drowned in dressing the lunch was ok. Not great, just ok.

This was our first time here, we have tried a couple of times before but it has been closed. We stopped for a cupa and a cake late on Sunday afternoon and itwas reasonablely busy. No complaint, coffee was fine, scone and cake were fine too as was the service.

Me and my boyfriend visited this lovely little gem in Meigle the other day. The homemade soup and cakes were delicious and the staff were very friendly and smiley! We will definitely be back and highly recommend visiting!

Great lunch as usual. Soup is always good and 2 choices also soup and sandwich or soup and cheese scone deal good value. Panninis great choice of fillings. The tray bakes are just great.

We went here on 24 December for the first time and found it to be a very welcoming place.

Placed our order, paid and went to our table and waited, and waited, and waited, eventually we asked where our order was, blank stares then oh right, sorry!

The soup and sandwich offer is excellent, choice of home made soups. friendly staff and generously filled sandwiches, on site parking.

Well worth diverting from main Perth to Dundee (A90) Friendly staff. Plenty of choice. Lemon slice well worth it!!

Took 4 colleagues here for a working lunch , such a warm welcome from the lovely waitress . Nothing was too much trouble , we had delicious home made soup , 2 varieties & cheese scones , one of us is gluten free & was served GF bread with her soup , finished with great coffees , relaxing, cheery atmosphere & on site parking , highly recommend

We were in Meigle to go to see the Pictish Stones in the Museum only to find that it had closed for the season. Before heading on to Dundee we decided to have lunch in the area and found The Joinery - lucky find! Three of us had a very nice lunch in pleasant surroundings, very convenient car park, and friendly and attentive staff. The soups and sandwiches were very good, generous portions, followed by excellent coffee and a great selection of cakes. A very pleasant atmosphere topped it all off. Will be back!

Its a spacious west facing former joinery with big car park that has counter service and a central log fire in the winter.The soup and sandwich deal is £6.99 and they have a variety of home made tray bakes.There is plenty of room and on a chilly day its cosy with storage heating.It would take a cycling group easily and you can see your bike out off the large windows

Stopped here on a drive between Dunkeld and Forfar. Very pleasant stop. Place was well set out. Roomy. Would come back.

Just passing by on our way out to the Waterfall and decided to call in on the way back for a coffee and the soup and sandwich deal was just great value also brought a great handbag and scarf

Popped in mid-afternoon with 93 year old Mum to have coffee and cakes. Good, friendly service and a great range of baking. No rushing or feeling pushed to finish. Enjoyable wee break.

The café was as good as expected, friendly staff, choice of soups, freshly prepared sandwiches served to your table, on site parking.

Just had lunch here and the cheese scones were truly the best. Next visit will try the scone and clotted cream.

I visit here a couple of times a month with friends or family and would highly recommend it. The soups, sandwiches and salads are freshly made with good quality ingredients and the home baking is of an extremely high standard.

I opted for a Coronation Chicken sandwich. It was excellent. Accompanied by a little salad which was nicely presented and very nicely dressed. Iced Latte finished off a really good experience

First visit today and very pleased. Had tea and fruit scone, butter and jam. Very tasty raspberry jam served in dish which is so much better than sachets etc.

Great soup and sandwich, and a great lunch menu. Pleasant place for lunch or tea and cakes. Friendly and efficient staff.

Great place for lunch. Friendly staff, varied choice on the menu. Soup and sandwich or soup and scone a really good deal. Scones are very nice. Would definitely recommend food and service great place for lunch and snacks.

I have been here several times with family for lunch and the food and service at the Joinery with its pleasant atmosphere has always been an important part of these being great occasions.

The best spot in the area to enjoy some lunch and a coffee. Fantastic value for money. I would highly recommend the soup and sandwich deal. I am lead to believe that the soup is made from scratch on site which is brilliant.

Wonderful May sunshine drove us to visit Meigle from our home in Fife. What a lovely village and what a treat was in store for our first sampling of cheese scones in The Joinery! Offered jam or chutney to accompany them, we opted for the latter.....delicious! Our cappuccinos were well made and just the right temperature so the staff know what they are doing. We did notice on the menu that the staff are given barista training so, well done. Everyone was very friendly and Ann went out of her way to tell us places to look at in the village. Thank you. We shall recommend!

Been here a couple of times. Coffee is good, cakes are good if a little too sweet. Nice cafe with limited parking. Not a fan of ordering at the counter, but it's a minor point

Wee gem in the middle of a pretty village. Lovely homemade offerings served by friendly staff. Cosy when Log burner is on. Ideal for lunch or just coffee and home baking.

Dropped in for take away coffees and cheese scones. I had a vanilla latte which was surprisingly very good - I find a lot of coffee tastes similar in cafes, but this one was lovely! Scones were fluffy and very tasty! Will be back.

My wife and I walked from Ardler to Meigle for supplies and then popped into the Joinery. We were warmly welcomed by the owner, who apologised that their were no meals due to weather. However, if we had a coffee or another beverage, you get a free cake. This was an offer we couldn't refuse. The home made cakes were just superb. We then had a look at all the other things for sale and came away with two wooden ornaments. Will we go back? Most definately.

Good place to go. Plenty of home bakes to choose from and beautiful homemade soup. Prices are good. We always try and sit by the wood burner after a walk. Staff are very good as is the service. A good car park too.

My first visit to the Joinery and I had a delicious, rather large yummy cheese scone and a pot of Earl Grey. The scone had just come out of the oven and were fluffy and huuuge, served with butter and chutney. Definitely recommended.

A very warm reception here with very nice scones and a cracking cup of tea. The soup was also first class. Yum yum.

Had their soup sandwich deal. Soup was a parsnip and apple variety which was very good. Selection of sandwiches also good. Busy place. Has odd ordering at counter procedure

Up to see the brother in law popped in for lunch. 7 of us 5 adults 2 kids. Soup and a sandwich was amazing. Busy place but managed to get a table. Great atmosphere! !! Went half and half with my wife with the sandwich....

Always have a cheese scone here , they are enormous & sometimes take 1/2 home with me for later (...

What can I say, this is fantastic, great food, great staff, great price. Lovely fire. What is not to like....

Great choice of food on the menu. Staff very friendly with quick service. Scones and cakes are wonderful. Looking forward...

Lovely light lunch as always . Always tasty homemade soup and cakes . Staff always friendly and helpful . Will be back soon

My wife and I called in at this establishment on the recommendation of a member of staff at Glamis Castle. When we arrived there was only one other couple present so we had a good choice of tables. During our stay there was a steady turnover of customers, most of whom seemed to be local, but it was never busy.

When I drive up to Aberdeen I never go via Dundee but take the Couper Angus road at Perth and after you pass through Couper Angus, after about 15 minutes you will come to Meigle a lovely wee village and as you enter it and on a Z bend on the right hand side is this lovely Coffee Shop.

After being in Pitlochry for a few days it was nice to come across somewhere reasonably priced with good food and friendly staff.

Having the good luck to have stumbled upon it, can't recommend this wee place highly enough. Excellent coffee and cakes (you MUST try the Tiffin - has to be the best in Scotland) for the weary traveller. Beware, however, you might end up buying some of the wonderful craft items on sale around the place too.

We stopped for lunch - an excellent soup and sandwich combo (the sandwich was filled to bursting and the soup was excellent). Very busy for a Monday lunchtime.

Was visiting Glamis and looked for a recommended coffee shop for an afternoon cuppa. So glad we detoured to come here. A nice welcome, lovely coffee and fantastic home bakes. A real treat to come somewhere that has generous portions of traditional baking. We came back for lunch the following week (we live in Aberdeen!) and were not disappointed.

There were 5 staff that I counted, all very pleasant, but the order had to be placed at the counter although it was served at the table. Complicated description of sandwiches with included or extra fillings and sandwiches served with an unpleasant salad dressed with something like salad cream. The sandwich was good as was the soup. Reasonably pleasant inside and off road parking available. Service was quick.

Have supported this very nice little coffee shop many times over the years. The new owners have wisely kept to what was a very successful choice of menu under previous management.. Staff are bright and friendly and provide a very efficient service.My only reservation and I think it is an important one is that the only provision for drying one's hands in the toilet is a hand towel. This was the case under the previous owners also and I do think it is something which should be changed by providing either a hand drier or paper towels. As far as I can see this toilet is used by staff also and it would only take one case of gastroenteritis for the coffee shop to face closure which would be such a shame. Not everyone washes their hands unfortunately and bugs can spread very easily due to lack of proper hygiene..

Not for the first time I have met friends here as we all enjoy the surroundings, the choice and quality of food and most times the opportunity to park outside

This coffee shop is absolutely terrific! There is a lovely atmosphere and the staff are all very friendly and helpful. The owner is super - energetic and fun. We've had soups, sandwiches, teas and coffees and we've never been disappointed. One suggestion would be that the toilets could, instead of having one towel for all to use, have a hand drier or paper towels. Looking forward to going back.

Took a visit here last week for the first time with my mum & my 11 year old daughter. Lovely place with a great little play area for little ones. Service was fantastic & the food excellent. Lovely atmosphere & well priced. Looking forward to my next visit & would highly recommend

Deicious food - generous sized portions; homemade soup was delicious and sandwich fillings were jam packed. Staff very friendly and attentive and lovely relaxed atmosphere. Wendy's scones are to die for and a 'Must have' from the menu .

We had tea and homebakes and both were very good. We had something called a "ginger crisp" - maybe not very crispy, but certainly very gingery (which we loved!). It is clear the homebakes are really HOMEbakes, not some industrial stuff.

Lovely afternoon coffee, tea & home bake cakes. Very welcoming and pleasant staff. Nicely laid out with area's for gifts and kid's play area.Good value for money & will return soon.
