The Loft Country Kitchen & Restaurant in Perth & Kinross

A great evening. Beautifully prepared and served meal. The colours and positioning of the vegetable selection, the carefully cooked food, the wide choice of menu, the attentive service, the cosy ambience. What a lovely evening. I would recommend highly to anyone interested in giving it a try.

Adrian is probably the best cook out there in the highlands. Such authentic and fresh use of such fantastic produce he sources locally makes his preparations really good to the palate and to the sensibilities. His wife Nicoletta has decorated the entire restaurant with her own paintings which are just fabulous. Together the well decorated plate and the walls make an excellent outing. A must try.

Top notch dinner at The Loft last night. All the dishes we had were fantastic and the service was superb. So good we booked to go there again tonight!

My favourite restaurant. We go here everytime we go to pitlochry. The food is outstanding. The owners are lovely. Can't wait to come back when I'm there in October. ❤️

We felt so fortunate that we found this place. We were trying to find a spot for dinner and then head back to our hotel before it got dark. The hostess graciously took us in, even though they were obviously slammed. Atmosphere was amazing. Quintessential Scotland.

Wow! What a fabulous experience. Food was fantastic and ingredients were totally fresh and great quality. Every course was a delight and so glad Lindsay and Pauline from The Firs where we stayed recommended it. Staff and owners were lovely and atmosphere and decor great. We actually ate there again the following night as so good. Recommend to book though.

Outstanding food and service. The cod was delicious and beautifully oresn ted. Really nice flavours. The deserts were amazing. Lovely restaurant. Staff were very friendly.

Food and service was excellent. Great relaxing atmosphere / surroundings and outdoor eating terrace if the weather is nice. We had our springer spaniel with us and he was made to feel really welcome. There is a great choice on the menu and always a few specials available. Cost was very reasonable for the area and the standard of food. We'll will be back!

We will definitely eat here again next time we are in Blair Atholl. From the warm and cheerful welcome, to the excellent food that they obviously take pride in, we were very happy. Fully recommended

Was für eine großartige Küche. Ich würde 10 Punkte geben, wenn ich könnte. Auch der Espresso war eine Gaumenfreude. Schade, dass dieses Restaurant nicht so schnell wieder auf unserem Weg liegt. Wir würden sofort wieder einkehren. Der Chef ist aufmerksam und liebenswert und die Bedienung ausgesprochen nett und hilfsbereit.

Warm welcome from Nicoletta, nice ambiance, delicious food. Great view of hills, just such a lovely place. Can recommend the Lamb and the Venison. Husband doesn’t like parsnip mash or parsnips in any form so asked if he could have normal potato mash instead which was not a problem at all. Owners are very obliging and happy to accommodate where possible After we had left the restaurant and had walked back to Blair Atholl station we were informed that our train was severely delayed then cancelled (due to the train hitting a stag) and could not get a taxi back to Pitlochry so Adrian very kindly offered to drive us back to our accommodation, we don’t know what we would have done otherwise as it was after 23:00, we greatly appreciated him doing this for us. Will definitely return to The Loft again and strongly recommend to others. Thanks again Adrian for getting us back safely

Nous sommes accueillis avec un grand sourire Le restaurant est joliment décoré Les serveurs sont extrêmement agréables et l’un d’entre eux parle français Les plats sont copieux et bons, nous nous sommes même laissés tenté à la dégustation du haggis et ce fut une bonne surprise

Brilliant food in great surroundings . very cheerful & bright lady serving. Warm & cosy with real fire - perfect for a romantic meal.

Absolutely fantastic! We loved it. Dog friendly, amazing food, super friendly staff. Highly recommend - would return for sure.

This is one of my favourite restaurants in Blair Atholl. The food never disappoints and the staff are friendly and attentive. Will be back in April!

Enjoyed the most delicious Mother's Day lunch at The Loft. We were served complimentary Prosecco on arrival which was delightful. All enjoyed three courses which were faultless, cannot recommend highly enough. Personal service with such attention to detail. Truly wonderful!

Amazing food, I had the haddock in panko breadcrumbs, chips and peas, my partner had battered haddock, I had crème brûlée and my partner had banoffee pie in a jar. Very good quality tasty food. The restaurant has a great view.

We had one of the best meals we’ve ever had in this cosy restaurant. We were impressed with the variety of vegetables offered as standard. We had a lovely fireside seat and the food was really top notch. The hosts were also lovely. Very highly recommended.

We have been here many times. Often with large groups as well. Food, service, staff and owners are all top notch. They always extremely attentive and give the feeling of fine dining with none of the stuffiness that often comes with it. It is always just right. Highly recommended! My kids, even the difficult one, are always thrilled.

Great food & great service. Highly recommend. Catering for vegetarian’s too. Nothing was too much bother. Nice atmosphere in a lovely setting.

Had been recommended to go here and we were glad to have been. An interesting well balanced menu with mainly some very well executed dishes but also some staples to keep the less adventurous or younger diners happy. Service was relaxed and friendly. Definitely now added to our local list.

It's rare that I give a review on a restaurant, but I just had a meal that was so well done I had to say something. My wife and I just left The Loft and we finished everything on our plates. I had the rib eye and she had trout. We also had desert. Everything was great and the service was very good, prompt I must say.

This gem of a restaurant was recommended by our B&B hosts at the lovely Ptarmigan House in Blair Atholl, Scotland; on the A9 northwest of Edinburgh. The Loft was pleasantly arranged. The food was excellent. I had the trout with a wonderful mash and mix of veggies. My husband had a delicious rib eye. The sauces and seasonings were spot on. All the dishes that came out of the kitchen looked beautiful. Kudos to that chef.

Service was great. Food was average but plentiful. The prawn/avocado/smoked salmon starter was very good along with the lavender crème brûlée. But the cod was well cooked, but not spectacular, and the venison fillet was tough.

Nice spot but the food was pretty ordinary. I thought we had (sorry!) woken up in the 70s with prawn cocktails etc on the menu! That said, we were looked after, and the service was great. Not a high-end spot by any means, but doable if you're in the mood for something a bit retro.

Had a beautiful meal at this restaurant. Amazing food, lovely service and nice surroundings . We went to celebrate my 50 th birthday and it exceeded our expectations. We’d read the reviews and they are bang on, a great restaurant and lovely experience. Would highly recommend The Loft.

The restaurant was warmly recommended by the owner of the B&B we stayed in. And she was absolutely right : great food, served with passion, friendliness and a touch of humour : the best recipe for a grat dinner !

Very friendly welcome. We opted for a main dish and dessert. The dishes were provided with extremely fresh and finely seasoned vegetables. The plates were a feast for the eyes. There was no pressure, free to enjoy to the fullest. Important': reservation is desirable.

The reason we chose this restaurant for our evening meal, was that it, was rated number one on trip advisor, for Pitlochry area. So, I was quiet shocked that it was at the entrance to a mobile home site and part of some rebuilding work underneath. However, we received a warm welcome and was offered an inside table or one on the roof terrace. There is a very good varied menu. I chose the Braised Scottish Wild Venison “Casserole“ which was very good, my husband the BBQ Pork Ribs. I fully appreciate the casserole was simmering all day in the kitchen, but the ribs should have been cooked to order. My concern is that the food arrived too quickly. I fear the ribs were precooked or micro waved? Ribs in central London take a while to cook and they would be £5 cheaper too. I have not tried other restaurants in the area, so perhaps it should be number 1?

Phenomenal food, ambiance/environment, and service with a passion for pleasing the customer. We liked it so much that we returned a second night! After a busy day hiking, we first walked by the “pub-ish” restaurant which is part of the local “Arms” hotel and moved on based on the prices we saw for pub food. We then opened Yelp and saw that “The Loft” had a perfect 5* rating! Although we heard there that chances of getting in without a resi on a Saturday night would be near impossible, we went over to try (even sitting at the bar). We hoped that we may be able to charm them by sharing that it was also my birthday. We had the amazing fortune that Nicolette took pity on us and gave us the table near the kitchen. Well, I had the venison steak with cherries reduction and it was the best venison I have ever had. My wife had the roasted chicken and loved it so much that she had it again the second night (which we booked before leaving the first night)! If you are a fan of “The Bear” on Hulu like us, you will see delight and passion in pleasing the customer in the smiles from Nicolette, Adrian, and the entire staff! They love doing what they are doing and that joy translates fully through the delicious food! Brava to the team of “The Loft”! We will be back as soon as possible, and we will always book ahead!

The food was great and the host was very welcoming. The apple pie is so good and fresh. The dishes are delicious and the service is excellent. The restaurant is clean and has a nice ambiance. Old oil lamps on the table instead of candles are a nice touch too

Best dinner we have had during our one week trip in this area! We’ve eaten in fancy and pricy restaurants around Isle of Skye and coming down here (by accident) was an excellent experience! Thank you The Loft Restaurant staff! You are amazing, keep up the good work!

The experience was excellent from start to finish. Very friendly and welcoming staff, to excellent food and drinks. We will definitely return when back in the area. Thanks guys for such an enjoyable evening 😊

During our recent dining experience, my party and I encountered an unexpected turn of events. Although our booking seemed to have slipped through the cracks, we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and service we received. Upon arriving, we were disappointed to...

Fantastic food never been disappointed add in fantastic service from Nicoletta and her team you can’t go wrong at the Loft.

The Restaurant is located above a disused swimming Pool. The Pool has been disued for nearly 3 years there is ongoing building work in the area. We were located in outdoor seating the weather was good but occasional gusts of wind blew dust up. The...

We treated ourselves to dinner at the Loft for the last night of our camper van trip around the NC500. Absolutely delicious meal, lovely fresh local ingredients served by charming friendly staff. Our doggie was made very welcome too. Would highly recommend!

Great find near Blair Castle camp site. Warm welcome, nice setting and an outside dining option. Varied menu, particularly the main course selection with a small but interesting wine list. The four of us all chose different starter and main course options and collectively agreed...

Had very nice food on their terrace. Service was very good as well. Had a great evening and will come back again. They have a great choice of local food and good list of wines and beers.

This is really a review of two halves: service excellent, food underwhelming. All the staff at The Loft were exceptionally welcoming and efficient. However, we both felt the food was disappointing. An avocado and prawn starter was nicely presented but drowned under too much sauce....

We had the most amazing dinner whilst staying in a lodge at the River Tilt Park. Food was unbelievable, the Haggis Neeps and Tatties is the best we have ever had and that's saying something! Venison, ribs and lasagne, there's something for everyone and we...

Absolutely wonderful food and service. So welcoming. Good variety on the menu. The food we had was absolutely delicious and very well presented. Already thinking about our next visit.

Amazing meal and fantastic service. Lovely surrounds, good quality and reasonably priced. Will definitely return if we are ever back in the area. It was so nice to have friendly staff who actually spoke. Each dish was so full of flavour and presented beautifully. We...

Really lovely meal. Food was fab but service was fantastic. Nothing was too much bother dog was happy too.

The food here is perfectly cooked and beautifully presented. Very friendly service. The only thing which reduced our enjoyment was we were a bit cold. Nicoletta did put another heater on but it is quite a large room and my husband didnt get warm enough...

It was a most enjoyable experience, food and service were excellent so much so that we returned the following evening for more of the same.I highly recommend a visit.

The warm welcome and friendly service are on parr with the delicious food we had last night. We 3 enjoyed our mains and puddings with clean plates all round. Very reasonably priced - glad we'd been recommended it.

Beautiful meal for our silver wedding anniversary. Thank you to Adriano and Nicolette. Very dog friendly

Heading up North on a family holiday, we were aiming to stop in Pitlochry for lunch. After reading the recommendations for The Loft, we decided to avoid busy Pitlochry at the start of school holidays and stop in Bridge of Tilt (10 mins on). We...

Great service and atmosphere/ Meal was perfect. I chose Lasagna which was so tasty and of course I had my favourite dessert - Banoffee Pie - yum yum!

The loft serves good seasonal food and a good selection of wines spirits and beers. they are not open all year round sadly as a local The menu is good and they serve daily specials. There is on going work on site and carparking is...

As always, beautiful food, amazing flavors and warm friendly caring service. Never fails to impress, the best place to eat around Pitlochry by far!

I cannot praise the service we received from Nicoletta enough it was second to none and the food was out of this world we will definitely be back for more, if you are in the area I would highly recommend a visit!

The Loft has a lovely ambience, great service with friendly & professional staff and really delicious food. Absolutely first class all round - will definitely be back!

Fantastic food and great service never been disappointed, had the surf and turf and my wife had the lamb shank both perfect

We travelled from Pitlochry to have lunch here and were delighted with the quality of food. Absolutely first class in all departments. The menu is extensive and covers all appetite sizes - plus specials! Do not miss the opportunity if you are in the area....

We had lunch today as a family with a young child. The service was excellent and the food was absolutely delicious! Good quality homemade food in lovely surroundings. We will definitely be back to try out the evening menu. Thanks.

We had a great meal here on saturday evening. Staff were very welcoming and atmosphere was perfect. We had venison which was delicious, well presented and freshly cooked. Special mention to the pefectly cooked vegetables (they are always a giveaway if reheated)! Sticky toffee pud...

We drove from Pitlochry to The Loft and it was well worth it. The BBQ pork ribs I had were superb. The ribs were very tasty as were the vegetables. My wife had beef casserole pie with fabulous truffle mash. I could have eaten anything...

We were staying nearby and noticed this restaurant, it needs some care and attention outside but the service and food were really good, enjoyed the food and would definitely return.

The Loft is a few miles north of Pitlochry but well worth the drive. The Loft is a small restaurant so make sure to make reservations. Four of us ate and all ordered different meals. All ate fish or steak prepared in different ways and...

The atmosphere and food was great. We had several different items off the menu and each one was great. We enjoyed the staff interaction and suggestions they gave us. Definitely recommend

A crowd of three, we had such a good experience that we came back for a second meal in the week when visiting Scotland last week. With different palettes, we had various choices from the menu. I have to say that the food was cooked...

One of the best restaurants I had the pleasure of eating at during my vacation in Scotland. Reservations are suggested, my sister and I did not have reservations but they managed to accommodate us. The food was amazing we had the salmon and lasagna. My...

We enjoyed dinner at The Loft when staying in Pitlochry; the restaurant is actually a few miles north of Pitlochery but an easy drive. We started with the mixed olive appetizer, which was very good and the bread was excellent. I had the venison dish,...

The Loft restaurant has a lovely ambiance and view. We had a perfect window table. The staff were wonderful and the restaurant not noisy even though they were busy with visitors to the Horse Trials. I dined on lamb that was not only perfectly cooked...

Excellent restaurant! All homemade in house. There were 8 of us and they were very accommodating. Food was delicious… lamb, salmon, chicken! The Brie salad was yummy. We had 3 desserts: sticky pudding, cream brûlée and chocolate moose… they were fabulous! Thank you for great...

I visited The Loft with friends last week, and what a fabulous meal we all had! The food is what I call proper cooking - made from fresh, and luckily for me all the sauces were made with corn starch so were gluten-free - very...

My wife and I dined here twice during a recent visit to nearby Pitlochry. We were pointed to the Loft by a work colleague, and we were not disappointed. The Loft has an extensive menu of predominantly Scottish food. I believe that much of it...

Having tried many of the restaurants in the centre of Pitlochry we were looking to try somewhere new today en route to Inverness. The staff at The Loft were welcoming and attentive and the menu was varied depending on what you were after. The dishes...

We had a wonderful birthday celebration on the porch of the Loft Restaurant. The plates were beautiful and food excellent!

We ate here on our last night of holiday for a special family meal. The family who run the restaurant were really friendly and welcoming. The food was great an the children's menu was reasonably priced. The main meals were beautifully presented and absolutely delicious.

Food is good but like all restaurants in Pitlochry the starters and desserts are over priced. Calamari was tasty but not like any other calamari I have eaten. It should have read calamari popcorns and the apple lattice pie is actually apple cake. Service and...

The food was very nicely done and cooked perfectly the owners and staff was very friendly and helpful. I will surely to visit here again.

Very enjoyable evening at The Loft. Owners Adriano and Nicoletta were very welcoming. Lovely freshly prepared food.

Family of 10, five adults and five children had everything from soup (cream of vegetables) and sandwich (smoked salmon and cream cheese- delish!) pizza, salmon salad, to fish and chips and a salmon entree! It was all great! We ordered from the owner’s handmade, leather...

We are regulars and we are never disappointed either with meal or service. Great tasty food and the presentation is fantastic. Very friendly and attentive staff. Very well done to keep this place running

We had an excellent meal in this little restaurant. The place was buzzing, the staff delightful and the food was excellent.

I had great expect expectations of good food after reading the reviews and also from word of mouth commendations to say we were disappointed would be an understatement. I had Scampi and not triple cooked chips just very overcooked chips they were burnt to a...

Walkable in Blair Atholl. Upstairs in a cozy setting with views to the hills. Great menu, great food. Grilled cod was yummy. Our flaming creme brulee was fun and tasty! Definitely recommend!

A restaurant recommended on trip advisor that definitely lives up to its 5 star rating friendly staff, great food and reasonably priced. Deserves more than 5 stars and would love to go again.

Fantastic lunch. Great menu and the food was excellent and cooked perfectly. Very friendly service too. Will definitely return. XX

The food was absolutely amazing, really recommend. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Unfortunately only in the area for one night otherwise would definitely have gone again. Seriously if you’re in the area make sure you visit, you will not be disappointed.

I would recommend you book but myself and hubby just walked in. Absolute treat hubby had calamari and fish and chips I had chicken dish then crème brûlée. Been a long time since I’ve had such a nice meal, everything was perfect. Staff were friendly...

The Restaurant is situated on the Parc Royale Holiday Park currently their is a lot of building work on going. The Restaurant is good serves good traditional local food and is good value. The Parc Royal site has Permanent Residential and Holiday homes. The new...

The food was Scottish, with the best ingredients. Presentation and combinations of vegetables were imaginative and complemented the main items. The Loft is intimate and comfortable, service friendly and efficient.

We booked ahead and glad we did the staff whee excellent especially Adriano. We ordered fish and chips and ribs of pork for mains and stared with olives and bread both very very nice. We even tried to book for next night but it was...

We had a fantastic meal, food was delicious and staff excellent thank you for a wonderful time. You made my uncle"s 90th birthday special

Had a lovely fish dinner here enroute to our holiday stay. We both had panko breaded haddock and it was the most delicious fish, and it’s the best breaded fish we had eaten. Light, chunky flakes and with a tasty crispy crumb. Followed by a...

The Loft was worth the short drive from Pitlochery! The food was fantastic (fried Brie wedges-need I say more) . I also have to rave about the steak pie and hubs loved the venison. Our server was attentive, it was quiet and relaxing. And thanks...

Booking in advance, very advisable. Varied menu. Cater for dietary requirements with alternatives. Lovely first floor patio dining area for fine weather.

Tucked away you'd think you were in the Alps. Ascend the stairs slightly nervously and are warmly welcomed by a fantastic team. Amazing food served quickly and with professionalism. Tower of Neeps Tatties and Haggis to start followed by rump of venison compliment by the house Shiraz. 10/10. Will be back!

We popped in for lunch and we were not disappointed. The food and service were excellent. Next time we go back we will have the evening meal the menu looked very inviting.

Were staying at Atholl Arms Hotel for 5 nights which unfortunatley did not advise their restaurant was closed when we booked. Fortunately discovered The Loft and booked in for dinner on night 4 of our holiday. The staff were so welcoming. You felt as if you were a regular customer. As for the food, my wife had strips of calamari and I had goats cheese with black pudding for starters. For mains had rump of lamb and fillet of highland venison. All the dishes were amazing. I had creme brulee for dessert which was spectacularly set on fire at the table to caramelise the sugar. Great fun and musn't forget the lovely wine. It was so good we booked for the following evening. The restaurant was quieter the 2nd night. My wife decided she would only have a main course as she struggled to finish her food the previous night. I had the calamari to start and was not disappointed. We both chose one of the special dishes. Surf & Turf. Rib eye steak with a large langoustine and some extra large mussels, with pink pepper sauce on the side. We both agreed the steak was stunning, best we have had for a long time. We also tried some of their lovely Romanian wine. As it was quieter we had a long conversation with the owner. At the moment they are closed Monday & Tuesday. If you are in the area give it a try. We definitely recommend The Loft and wish we did not stay almost 100 miles away.

Quality of food, the presentation and exemplary service was a true delight. What a fantastic find and we will most certainly be recommending that our air bnb guests pay The Loft a visit.

Why is that when I find a fabulous restaurant it always seems to be when I am miles from home? This restaurant is superb. The friends we were with had been there before and couldn't wait to visit it again and nor can I. All the choices were interesting, from a starter of stacked haggis, neeps and tatties with a whisky sauce to another of prawns, salmon and avocado that has no bearing on a prawn cocktail whatsoever. The mains were superlative. Guess what? I didn't have room for dessert but again, I wished I had. We visited The Loft before catching the Caledonian Sleeper. The meal almost made up for having to travel on the sleeper!

We unfortunately arrived late for our booking, but the staff were very welcoming and friendly. The service and food were both excellent. We particularly enjoyed the desserts of creme brule and banoffee pie.

What a find! Was in the area and looked through TripAdvisor to find a good restaurant. This came up first, and was 200 m from where we were. The atmosphere was lovely, the service great, and the food exceptional. I had the goar cheese and black pudding starter. It was such a fantastic blend of colours, textures and flavours, and a good size! For main I had the Highland venison, which was superb. Served medium well with sour cherry sauce whichwas a bit sweet for my taste but certainlyrich enoughto complementthe meat, with 5 different kinds of veg and a small portion of scalloped potatoes, it was gorgeous. My friend had the Perthshire lamb, a huge portion done medium, and looked delicious. The prices were very reasonable for the quality of the food. We had no room for dessert, but what arrived at other tables looked beautiful, and the menu was impressive. We immediately booked again for tomorrow, so I can try the lamb

While staying at Blair Atholl camp site we visited The Loft Restaurant for lunch, flipping great. Service was great, they made us feel special, welcome and relaxed.A busy and friendly restaurant that made a busy restaurant feel special.Menu is very good n hubby n I struggled to pick what we would have, there was so much. I settled on dressed crab, starter then Scampi n chips, never had so much delious fresh Scampi absolutely tabby. Hubby had Goats cheese starter with rabbit confiet main. We both enjoyed the meal, but hubby was VERY disappointed that he just couldn't manage a pudding, there were so many that he fancied.Loved it so much friend n I will be booking for lunch when Christmas fayre is on
