The Loft Restaurant in Perth & Kinross

a genuine joy to dine here! fantastic food, fantastic host, lovely atmosphere. will definitely be back!

Food atmosphere service. All the excellent

I recently had the pleasure of dining at The Loft Restaurant in Blair Atholl, and it was an outstanding experience from start to finish! The ambiance was warm and inviting, with a charming decor that perfectly complements the beautiful surroundings. The menu offered a fantastic selection of dishes, showcasing local ingredients with creative flair. I opted for the pan-seared salmon, which was cooked to perfection and accompanied by seasonal vegetables that added a delightful freshness to the plate. My dining companion enjoyed the slow-cooked lamb shank, which was incredibly tender and full of flavor. The service was impeccable; our server was attentive and knowledgeable, providing great recommendations and ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The wine list was impressive, with a variety of options that paired wonderfully with our dishes. To top it all off, we indulged in dessert, and I must say the chocolate tart was divine—rich and decadent, it was the perfect ending to a fantastic meal. Overall, The Loft Restaurant exceeded my expectations, and I can’t wait to return. Highly recommend it to anyone visiting Blair Atholl!

Excellent quality food in homely atmosphere served by friendly attentive staff. Highly recommend.

Just popped in whilst touring Scotland. Brilliant menu and the food was fantastic.

I was very surprised, the restaurant itself feels a bit hidden, can't see any signs or anything. But once you find the way in it welcomes you. Extremely friendly and nice staff which makes the whole experience smooth and relaxed. Food is local produce and local ingredients, massive portions. I'll be bringing more people for sure!

We chose the restaurant based on Google reviews, and were not disappointed. The food was well presented and very tasty. The service was excellent. The staff were very friendly and attentive. A thoroughly enjoyable evening. Would recommend.

A unique and delicious experience!

Best meal for ages. Beautifully cooked meat and amazing vegetables, done quite crunchy. Everything well presented too with an excellent sauce. It needed more potato, that's all, to stop me feeling hungry now, two hours later. But very good.

Excellent food and service. Lovely presentation. Very welcoming hostess. Well worth a visit.

Very good family atmosphere. Good Kitchen. The Server speaks French and Italian

extraordinary place wonderful people 100 stars

Far better than what we expected. Good traditional fare

Expensive and nothing amazing For me : Vegetables were tasteless , meet was ok but nothing more, desserts : cream aswell was tasteless That does not deserve the good rate that has this restaurant…

A little nugget found by chance. The food was as good as the welcome. The waiter took great care of us and we started our trip to Scotland by learning that the Scots know how to cook! Thank you so much

Fantastic experience at The Loft! Delicious food, friendly service, and a wonderful ambiance. Highly recommend!

After a long hike in the highlands I came there and gave me a place to sit even when it was fully booked. They wend above and beyond to give me every thing I needed. Antoni and His wife are amazing they are the best restaurant owners that I’ve met! The food looks amazing, it is definitely worth wile to come and dine there.

Very nice hostess. Food super tasty. Extraordinary combinations, really special and good.

Everything was great, food is delicious, nice staff. I really recommend it to everyone. Great atmosphere! Love it

Charming, helpful and very keen on diets like gluten free. Surely recommended.

I keep going back because the food and the service is excellent.

The very best locally produced food served by superb friendly staff. As a concierge at local hotel this restaurant has never had bad guest feedback

Staff were super friendly and service was very attentive. The restaurant space was nice. We had soup, sandwiches and chips and they had gluten free options. The soup was tasty and chips were excellent but the sandwiches were really unacceptably poor (unbuttered bread with some anaemic tomato and a slice of stale cheese) which was a shame. Pricey for what it was (£20 each for soup and a sandwich, chips to share and a soft drink).

Amazing food, Adriano, our server, and his wife, were wonderful

Great value for money. Had the soup of the day and a sandwich. Highly recommend.

The food was absolutely amazing!! The most delicious starter and main I’ve ever had 👌🩷 almond breaded Brie rules! I’m so happy I’ve found this hidden treasure 💎💖 I will come back when we will visit this area again! 🥰

Stepping into The Loft Restaurant feels like discovering a hidden chapter of a quaint village tale. Nestled above the mundane via a mystic stairwell, the entrance sets a tone of ascending into a secret gastronomic enclave. The rustic chic decor embraces you, as if walking into a warmly lit, culinary-focused lodge, presided over by convivial staff whose welcoming smiles act as preludes to the meal ahead. My culinary journey began ambitiously with venison dressed in a red berry sauce. The game itself was prepared decently, its wild flavors partially tamed by the tangy sweetness of berries. However, it remained just that—decent. The accompanying vegetables were standard fare, neither detracting from nor elevating the dish. Across the table, the lamb echoed this sentiment of culinary adequacy; well-cooked but lacking the distinctive touch one yearns for in such establishments. The children’s menu proved to be a quiet surprise, with a simple macaroni dish that was unexpectedly flavorful. It was a reminder that sometimes, simplicity done right can outshine more elaborate attempts at finesse. Dessert, however, was the star of the evening. My crème brûlée, infused with subtle notes of lavender, was a delightful dance of creamy texture and crystalline caramelized sugar, each spoonful a testament to what The Loft could achieve. It captured the essence of what the earlier dishes promised but did not quite deliver. Service throughout was impeccable, with attentiveness and warmth that almost made you forget the food's shortcomings. The atmosphere, with its tasteful rustic elements, offered a cozy retreat from the world below. In reflection, The Loft stands as a place of potential, brushing against the lines of culinary finesse but not quite crossing them. Despite the high praises sung by others, my experience whispers of a menu that flirts with greatness but settles for the middle ground. There’s room for growth, and one hopes future visits will reveal a kitchen that has blossomed into its full promise. For now, The Loft is a charming venue with dishes that are just "OK," but a dessert worth returning for.

First class food and dining experience

The absolute best in the area and beyond. For any gourmet food lover, this place should ne on their shortlist. We drop by every year when we're heading north for a great meal.

Good food, good service and pleasant atmosphere!

Everything on the menu here was delicious. I had a lamb shank, which I would order again and again. Also, their desserts are a cut above. Please always have the banoffee pie.

10 out 10 for hospitality, Nicolette was the perfect host, who couldn't do enough for us, and she made us feel relaxed. The food was out of this world, all cooked to order with a large selection of vegetables and cooked to perfection. The desserts were to die for! We would highly recommend this restaurant 👌

First visit and the welcome was warm and friendly, the food was fantastic

What an absolutely wonderful meal we had at The Loft on Friday night. The food was clearly fresh and cooked to perfection! Don't usually do 3 courses but the smell as we entered the restaurant, and the choice on the menu, meant it had to be all 3....we were not disappointed! My partner has eaten steak in most of the best restaurants across Scotland, and he said the Surf and Turf was perfection! Every element of all the dishes we ate, was so incredibly tasty and piping hot. How does one make a haggis starter taste that good? A few minutes drive from Pitlochry (where we were staying) but well worth the journey. Highly recommend, we will definitely be back!

Extremely good restaurants with a huge selection of local produce and a mix of different tastes. From see food to venison to lasagne. Everyone should find something here. The same goes for the starters (try the olives) or the dessert 🎂. There could be one or two vegetarian dishes as most of the menu is quite meat focused.

A wonderful restaurant tucked in off a side road. Warm, welcoming staff and atmosphere

Outstanding place to eat. Friendly staff, with an amazing atmosphere and the food is out of this world. 5 stars is not high enough.🤩

Nous n'avions pas réservé mais je vous conseille de le faire. La cuisine est bonne et le serveur Adrian parle français !

Le hasard fait bien les choses. Très bon accueil. Très bonne nourriture. A retenir !

Ein kleines Restaurant mit einem unerwartet guten Service und hervorragendem Essen.

Went for dinner tonight and the only disappointing thing was that I don’t live local to be able to go back again. Had the venison haunch and the lamb loin. Both meats were cooked to perfection with fantastic accompanying sauces and beautifully cooked veg. We had checked them out online before booking and noticed there puddings looked lovely so ordered 3 between 2 of us and the lavender crème brûlée was definitely the star. The levels of lavender came through beautifully and made for a wonderful dessert. The waiter was very attentive without being too much. All round a wonderful experience and definitely worth a visit if your near.

Amazing! Very nice and tasty food and very good service! Congratulations to the chef and whole team :)

Delicious and very nice persons! I highly recommend this restaurant

Beautiful, expertly cooked fresh food. Pleasant ambiance outside or in. Very friendly place for a relaxed meal.

Excellent food and service from the owners. Recommend booking.

Absolutely delicious food, cute and cozy atmosphere and lovely staff. A must stop in the area!

Delicious food. Very hard to make a choise which option to order. Friendly people, enough vegetables.

Beautiful little restaurant. Went for Sunday beef dinner whilst visiting our uncle in Blair Atholl. Very lovely staff and lovely dinner , well worth a visit for a treat . The puddings are amazing.

We were looking for a good quality restaurant for lunch. Finally found this place. The food is very tasty. Clean place. Pleasant environment

Visited the Loft recently and was warmly welcomed by the Owner/Manager Nicoleta. She took us to a nice table where we enjoyed a superb lunch of Scottish Scampi, chips and peas. Followed by a large well presented cheese board to share. The atmosphere and hospitality was excellent. We booked for dinner the following evening. We were not disappointed. Nicoleta was so friendly and she introduced us to her husband, the very talented chef. We enjoyed the best meal that we had had anywhere for a long time. My friend had sirloin steak and I had lamb rump. Both were cooked to perfection and melted in your mouth. Everything on our plates were top quality local produce. Both meals were amazing. To follow we had the home made deserts, bonofee pie and apple pie which didnt disappoint. The level of service and food was 'top notch'. The Loft have got everything right. We ate out a lot last week in Pitlochry but if you require a great quality meal, great staff who care about you, great ambience then it's well worth going to The Loft in Blair Atholl. Well done and thank you.

Delicious club sandwiches! The folks there were delightful.

Excellent food. Good service. Great atmosphere.

Nice, polite workers. Tasty dishes. I recommend it for lunch

Laktoseintoleranz war absolut kein Problem. Sehr nett, sehr freundliches Personal, tolles Ambiente, duper leckeres Essen!

Wir hatten ein tolles Clubsandwich. Sehr freundliche Bedienung und ein schönes, sauberes Restaurant.

Dinner last night was okay and there are limited choices in Blair Atholl so we chose this as it was the best reviewed. C’mon it’s just not a 4.8-5 star restaurant - a solid 3 at most. Good service for sure. Our group had venison and chicken entrees - a little heavy on the truffle oil. Only real complaint was they must of run out of the smoked salmon as I got a 4 bites worth on my “dinner sized” ceasar 😛. Just manage your expectations.

Good food and lovely staff. Excellent night out.

Un super restaurant très bon et accueil parfait très sympathique. La viande est excellente. Il parle bien français. Une belle découverte à faire absolument

The food was delicious (!!!), the owners are really friendly and helpfull. We had a great evening.

A gem of a place. Super friendly, absolutely delicious, beautifully presented food. Definitely worth a visit.

We had a brilliant meal. Lovely service and great food with generous portions. The starter dishes we had were the crispy calamari, rabbit terrine starters, haggis neeps and tatties and prawn cocktail. The presentation of each dish was lovely. The mains that stood out were the specials: lamb shank and aromatic duck in bread bowl. Delicious flavours! Would recommend this place for anyone looking for a hearty and filing meal.

Great food served by lovely people!

Amazing food. The rabbit was simply stunning, pretty much every dish was so well cooked with amazing flavours. The wine is also great and the warm friendly staff offer top notch service

An excellent lunch with friends, our first visit, but we'll be back. Great choice, well presented and friendly service.

Nous sommes un couple de français et aimons la bonne cuisine. Nous avons découvert ce restaurant qui est très bon voir excellent ! Nous y avons déjeuné un vendredi midi, c’était très calme, un très bon service et de super plats à des prix corrects .La carte des vins est tout à fait correct. Nous avons dégusté le haggis ainsi que le lapin.

Absolutely lovely from the moment you walk in the service the food just everything stunning

The service is warm and friendly, atmosphere is lovely and the food is outragiously good, we had a lovely stay over the weekend, the Loft was our highlight

We had an absolutely wonderful experience at The Loft. The service right from the start was warm and friendly, we were made to feel very welcome. All our food was first class, very much value for money. The atmosphere also was very good. I only have good things to say about The Loft, and I hope we will be back soon!

Stunning little restaurant. Food was AMAZING 🥰

I highly recommend everyone to visit this place! It shows a taste and atmosphere of Scotland. Its cosmetics are reminiscent of Scotland. Also, everyone's use of them here has me hooked.

Really lovely staff, went out of their eay to find dishes that would work.

An amazing dining experience, excellent menu choices , well presented large portions , friendly , helpful enthusiastic staff Antonio was an amazing waiter

Best dining we have had in years! Lovely staff and amazing food!

Meilleur repas de notre séjour de 15 jours en Ecosse !!! Tout était parfait, entrée, plat, dessert. Le rapport qualité/prix est imbattable et le personnel agréable. Nous y avons été pour déjeuner mais le dîner doit valoir le détour aussi ! Merci pour tout !

On my recent visit the starters and desserts were still a good standard. My son again enjoyed his venison however the confit rabbit leg was a disaster. Covered in sauce to hide the fact it wasn't crispy and sent it back because it was cold to have same dish returned a few minutes later obviously microwaved which was confirmed by staff. Disappointed it had been done much better in the past.

Great place. Very very nice people. Generous and very good cuisine... don't hesitate

A great meal out, no question. Good menu with lots of appealing options, everyone enjoyed their meals. Good service (loved the flourish with which the creme brulee is served, although the delicate flavour of lavender in the perfectly set custard would make it a winner anyway) and chatty host.

Superb food. Probably the best Sunday lunch I've had

Excellent place to stop by for lunch. My friend got the rabbit confit and enjoyed it immensely. I got a sandwich, which was quite filling. The lavender elderflower crème brûlée is the definitely a must get. All the desserts looked exceptional

Lovely small, intimate restaurant. Good food, reasonably priced. Excellent friendly staff. Would definitely return!

This unassuming, simple restaurant gave us the most delicious food! The lasagna was among the best I’ve had and the salmon with the Caesar’s salad very fresh and tasty. Would happily come back here.

Great food in a lovely environment. Staff were very friendly and service was great.

Great food here! Beautifully presented and tasted superb. We received a very warm welcome by all and quick and friendly service, but if you stopping for lunch be quick as they close at 3pm, it would be a shame to miss out on this delicious eatery.

Fab Italian restaurant, that had a lovely atmosphere. Me and my partner came here for a romantic dinner whilst in holiday. We both loved the food, I had the steak, whilst my partner had the salmon. Both were cooked beautifully. We felt the owners were very friendly and we loved the decor too. Please be aware however the resteraunt is at the top of a set of stairs.

Beautiful food and fantastic service!

Very good food and drinks and staff very friendly

Lovely meal friendly staff would recommend to family and friends

Delicious food prepared beautifully.

Very friendly staff :) we came without a reservation and they apologized about not being able to offer us a nicer table. Where we sat was great and the food was very lovely.

The atmosphir was geate, the food was reaally good. Greate hosts!

Great food, great service and lovely place.

Absolutely amazing food, so tasty and perfectly cooked. We had the grilled goats cheese and black pudding and the crispy Calamari to start, the venison and hot smoked salmon for main and the sticky toffee pudding for dessert. The salmon was a bit of a stingy portion but i can't drop one star for that as it was all so we'll cooked and presented. Would strongly recommend.

Atmosphere was lovely. Staff & service were outstanding.( especially as it was very busy.) The food was excellent & the bill was very reasonable indeed!

Great food, great atmosphere, great service. What else is there to say?! Thoroughly enjoyed our meal, but note that when we were there you needed to have ordered your food before 8pm!

Lovely meal and great service A1

Great place. Really tasty food, lovely friendly staff who actually care about your experience. The ingredients were fresh and locally sourced. Overall, really nice lunch.
