I took my mum here for lunch. Just totally love this place. Food is amazing. Best food ever to be honest. Staff were very attentive. The chef ranald actually came out to speak to us. What a lovely guy. Compliments to the chef. His food is out of this world. Best place ever.

Edit August 2024: unfortunately seems to have gone downhill. Food on my side not good - mashed potato tasted powdery and manufactured, chicken and leek pie was sickly and tasted strangely of fish. My friend enjoyed his meal. Restaurant no longer dog friendly but you can sit outside. Original review: Amazing food and cheap considering the quality, menu choice, and volume of food. 3 courses for 2 people and 2 alcoholic drinks came to around £40, which is astounding considering you can get 2 courses at Frankie & Benny’s and come out of there feeling robbed. Menu at the Stables is extensive, staff are friendly, atmosphere is good, prices are very fair, and the food is fresh, piping hot and delicious. Literally can’t fault the starter, main course or dessert. Will be back soon, hopefully.

Coeliac's avoid! I'm absolutely shocked that this restaurant is recommended Coeliac UK restaurant. I phoned at the weekend to book a table and to ask about their gluten free options. The young lady I spoke to was very helpful and said that they did a range of gluten free items including a gluten free burger (yay!). However, she said if I could give her a moment she would double check with the kitchen as to what they actually had in stock and available. No problems there. Unfortunately this is where it goes wrong. I could hear her asking the "chef" what was available and I can only describe his reaction as utterly disgraceful! I won't repeat what was said, however, it's safe to say he clearly has no respect for his job or the people he's catering for, especially if they have an allergy, intolerance or medical condition... The young lady came back on the phone and said she was very sorry but the only thing they could offer me was a salad with some grilled chicken and some sweet chilli sauce (all in all not a terrible option but after hearing his attitude towards the gluten free request, I would NOT trust him to cook me anything!). She said that they didn't have any gluten free burger buns and that absolutely everything else on the menu contained gluten! Obviously, it was just too much effort for this particular chef. So so disappointing! I totally appreciate not every establishment will have gluten free food available at all times, which is why I like to phone ahead. Sadly, being coeliac is NOT an option and certainly not a choice I would willingly make if it wasn't for the fact it was making me very ill. I'm sure if you don't have any dietary requirements, this is a nice place to visit but I will not be dining here as I couldn't trust that any care was taken over the preparation or cooking of my food. Sad, as they get good reviews otherwise. Such a shame the chef had such a negative attitude towards a serious medical condition...

Ate in it shortly after it was taken over a year or 2 ago and was really underwhelmed however having drank and ate here for years prior we wanted to gave it another chance recently but sadly found it to be much the same. Service was slow, waitress spent more time on her phone than by the tables meaning we had to constantly try and grab her attention and ask for the table to be cleared. Portion sizes were good but the flavour of the food was average and the halloumi fries appeared to be the same as what you’d get from Farmfoods. Most of the food just didn’t feel fresh in general and felt pre-made rather than freshly cooked. The restaurant itself just feels dated now and the tables and chairs were actually dirty in places - some of the chairs adjacent to us has dried in liquid running down the back of them, and our table still had small pieces food etc on it on arrival. Such a shame, used to be a great restaurant and bar under the previous owners and to be fair is still a reasonable pub, but the quality of the food, cleanliness and service has dipped massively. Sad to say but I wouldn’t return for food again, there’s much better pub grub in Stenhousemuir and Carronshore.

Took our 2 granddaughters here while spending a couple of nights in the area. Picked it because of the good reviews and weren’t disappointed. Hidden away in a housing estate but worth looking for. The children can be fussy eaters but found something they both enjoyed. One even tried my spaghetti bolognaise and gave it the thumbs up. So much so she is now enjoying my homemade bolognaise. The staff were friendly and attentive and it made such a difference from those chains of “family” restaurants with bland food. We will definitely revisit next time we are in the area.

Stopped in for a quick drink with my one year old puppy (good as gold, on lead). Gate to garden at back was stuck so walked in through main entrance. Immediately barked at (pun intended) by barmaid that I shouldn’t walk in through restaurant area and should walk all way round to gate at back. Muttered something to her colleague about having a dog in a restaurant which I didn’t quite hear. (Many restaurants allow dogs so don’t see what her issue was - especially since there were only about 5 people actually in restaurant.). She then served me at main bar and abruptly warned me dog was only allowed in bar till 5pm (it was 4.15pm). I’ve been in that pub on a few occasions later than that, and there have been dogs in there. I’d already decided by that point I wasn’t staying anyway. Unfriendly, unwelcoming and unnecessarily passive aggressive from the lady serving. Beer garden is also in need of some TLC - bit of a depressing dump. Whole place needs a renovation desperately.. Shame there’s nowhere else in area otherwise I’m sure most locals would go there instead.

Went as a group of 8 for the festive menu. We were really looking forward to it as a bit of a pre-Christmas celebration. Starters came out and was disgusting! Prawn cocktail… tasted as though the prawns hadn’t been thawed out properly and tasted awful. Didn’t eat it and when waiter cleared our table we wasn’t asked if everything was ok. Thought ok maybe mains will be better. Absolutely awful!! Got the turkey and it was like a grey piece of processed spam! One slice of it and clearly fried in a pan. It was inedible. Got 2 small roast potatoes, would’ve killed someone if you threw it their head! They were like deep fried rocks. Mashed potato was glutinous and slimy. Clearly been left out too long. I honestly felt sick because it was so vile. So I left it. Again, not asked if everything ok. Customer service was non-existent. It was as if they knew their food was that bad and couldn’t risk asking us if everything ok. Then dessert… what can go wrong? Profiteroles. The pastry was RAW in the middle. Just slime! That was the final straw, when plates were cleared we said something. Waiters response “ah ok”. No apology, nothing. We got the bill and reiterated what we’d said about the food and he said he’d knock £20 off the bill for the desserts. Between 8 of us that’s £2.50 off each. Disgraceful. The whole meal was disgusting, the customer service was awful and we will not be back. We feel they had a chance to rectify this whilst we were there but failed to do so. I cannot believe they served this rubbish to paying customers.

Was there for Anitas funeral 01/12/23 who used to work in the Stables. Sandwiches bread was stale. Went home to get my dog as Anita loved her and thought it would be fitting to bring her along to cheer people up. My 2 friends accompanied with their dog as well. Upon arrival many funeral goers faces lit up and 10-15 people crowded round the dogs to say hello. 10 mins after arrival we were initailly told to leave by a pub goer....actually the general manager who wasnt working who we rightly ignored. Even some of the funeral goers encouraged us to ignore him as he wasnt actually on shift. In the word of some councillor somewhere in England. You have no authority here. 5 mins later we had to leave as the manager on shift stated no dogs after 5pm. A rule that we have since discovered was only brought in 6 weeks ago and wasnt advertised on social media anywhere. Called to complain. Caitlin handled the call professionally and was extremely sorry for the upset caused on an already sombre day and said I could speak to the manager who was actually working which I didnt really need but appreciated the offer and accepted. Nicola her manager on the other hand couldnt have been ruder. Stated it was cruel to bring a dog to a pub due to the noise and atmosphere and she personally wouldnt take her dogs there. (I wasnt looking for recommendations from someone who obviously hasnt socialised their dog correctly. My dog and my friends dog were happy that people wanted to speak to them) She then stated it wasn't a pub for dogs in a reason to why it hadnt been advertised dogs were no longer allowed after 5pm. (I am not stupid and actually understand the concept of a pub) She then said she didnt really care and it was busy so she was hanging up. Advised would call in the morning to speak to another manager as her attitude was stinking....I may end up visiting tomorrow. -10/10 would not recommend to a friend. Wont be back unless its to kick up some more tomorrow.

Very quiet at lunch time. Staff were very pleasant and helpful. Food was ok, nothing special, but tasty enough, except for the seasonal vegetables which were undercooked and rock hard. I had the haddock mornay, quite a smallish portion but nice. I'm going again for a Christmas night out, so I hope it's a bit livelier and the food more inspiring!

Now, if I want extra, I have to order more. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. The chef actually came out to talk with us. The manager and her daughter were amazing and friendly. The business is very clean and accommodating. We will return, and we highly recommend it.

2 adults 1child I'll start with the positive first the girls were lovely. Now the negatives ordered a latte coffee which was undrinkable as it was so bitter. 2main courses were ok but 1 was terrible, it was meant to be a chicken burger bit it was just a lump of undercooked chicken that was full of water & had some blood init, on a bun definitely wasnt a chicken burger, it got sent straight back, my b/f was offered another meal bit he lost his appitite after seeing that. He ordered a drink that never arrived. Our granddaughter ordered caramel apple pie & ice cream the pie was lukewarm at best & the pastry wasnt cooked properly either. We've been coming to the stables on and off for years and the food has always been good but unfortunately i cant say the same for the food now,I dont know if it's changed hands, but the food and menu is nowhere near as good as it used to be. So on that, we sadly wont be going back.

Review is regarding staff rather than the food, which looked nice enough. We had about 16 adults and 7 kids sitting in the beer garden area celebrating the day after our wedding. I called ahead to see if we could order food sitting outside without a booking and was told yes. Not everyone wanted food, but the kids certainly did, along with a couple of fish and chips/pizza orders, nothing major. The first order was made for all the kids, except for mine. I went to order a few minutes later for my 6 and 2 year old only and was told no. They had to prioritise their restaurant guests over beer garden guests. The restaurant was only half full. I explained it was just two kids meals I was after as all the other kids has been ordered for. Was still told no and to “try again in half an hour”. After trying to order again for over an hour and a half we left. Several times we went to ask even if the two kids could just have chips, a small pizza or whatever and the answer was always no. Upon leaving I went back in to complain and the attitude from the women was absolutely disgusting. I think she was embarrassed that her restaurant guests heard they wouldn’t serve some chips to a 6 year old. Spent a good bit on money, £200 plus i’s guess, lots of us very local. You expect the place to be very kid friendly with the park etc but obviously not. The blonde womens words were “i’m not here to serve your kid”. Shame, could be a great place for families as there isn’t many places with park facilities around but certainly wouldn’t recommend whilst these staff/owners are still there.

Then no cheese after asking for cheese board. To top it all the blonde women behind the bar ( was abrupt, no smiling and no people skills). I will not visit again to be made to feel as if we were intruding on this woman's time. The other staff were lovely. no complaints.

Went in today at lunch time, hadn't booked, place was half empty. Asked for a table for two, was asked if we had booked, said we hadn't. Woman working behind the bar actually tutted, huffed and shook her head. Said there were no tables. We went to leave and she shouted that we could have a table near the bar and buy a drink, but would be a long wait for food. No thanks. Left and went to the tea house instead where we were treated like actual paying customers. Blond woman behind the bar was horrible. Won't be back

What a disaster of a dinner experience. Arrived at the restaurant and were pointed to our table (not shown). After about 10 minutes, waitress asked if we would like a drink. Five minutes later I was served a warm lifeless pint of Stella. I managed to get the waitress to come over. I advised her that the Stella was warm and flat. She said that it didn’t look right when pouring. Why the heck was I served it then ! Dinner arrived, what a disaster. Steak pie dinner, veg undercooked and stone cold, mash potato lumpy and bland. Steak pie was OK but cold. Wife had Scampi which was OK. Ordered another pint of Stella and waited 15 minutes without it appearing. Got the attention of another waitress who managed to fulfil my request. Won’t be back here again 😩

Not been in a few years, and I have to say I was a bit disappointed. Firstly the server was not friendly or chatty. Very short and gave over the impression that they didn't want to be there. I ordered the Mac n cheese burger. Which looked disappointing. A Brioche bun with some salad on the bottom then a burger, with a spoon of runny Macaroni on top. Not sure what I expected but it wasn't that. My wife's dish (sausage and mash). Looked better presented. The food was fine but fairly ordinary. On a more positive note compared to the competition, the prices were very reasonable.

Xmas lunch with work colleagues. Very disappointed there were no crackers on the table and we weren't given a festive menu. The 'special' however was turkey and trimmings which was plentiful, maybe too much on the plate. Roast potatoes were very nice, turkey was tasty, brussel sprouts tasted like frozen ones and there was a massive pile of mash on the plate which I found unnecessary. Soup for starter was very nice however it was way too hot to eat. The service was slow even though it wasn't busy and staff weren't very attentive. We weren't told about the turkey being available, we had to ask. We weren't told about several dishes not being available until we asked for them. Atmosphere was poor.

We were recommended this place today. Phoned prior to see if we needed to book. Lovely friendly mannered staff member said they weren't that busy so just pop in We had 3 courses each and enjoyed each course. We had chicken and cauliflower starters both delicious. Katsu curry and steak pie mains were superb. HUGE PORTIONS..... Sticky toffee and apple crumble desserts. Staff all very attentive and hard worked yet so down to earth. Chefs definitely know how to cook lovely and tasty food with such great prices. We will recommend and most definitely return

Lovely place to eat. Easy to get to, plenty parking. Great menu with a variety of choices. Excellent gluten free options. Staff very aware of risks of cross contamination, happy to discuss. Portions are excellent - not over-facing or ridiculous, but there's no skimping on anything. Prices are so reasonable, amazing value for money. Staff are lovely.

The food is decent as in average talking about the restaurant side. The bar side is fun and has a pool table and the waitresses are nice. Found a drink called Venom (rum, vodka, wiskey, and a bit of orange juice) at this place and it is hellah good. They have an outdoor dinning and drinking lounge which is nice. Also a small fenced in play park for kids for when the adults eat inside. Overall a little pub/restaurant that has bout everything... just up the food for a 5 star... food isn't bad it just isn't 👌🏼

Had a terrible experience/meal. Dough on fish was thick and under cooked. Mixed grill was burnt to a crisp. I've been here a few times over the years and it was a decent meal but I won't be back after this visit. I send a complaint email and they never even bothered to reply.

The staff were great, and really friendly, food and drink were delivered on time and both were exceptionally nice. The food is standard pub fare, well cooked and presented, with a decent range of drinks.

Happened upon this place by accident and so glad we did. Great service and the food was clearly homemade right when you ordered. Lovely beers on tap as well. Enjoyed haggis croquettes, stew, fish and chips, and the fresh fish of the day.

AWFUL!! me and my family went to the stables for an evening meal, i think it’s fair to say none of us enjoyed our meal,, We waited 35 minutes for our meal to arrive,,, Chicken burgers have been cooked in FAR to much oil,, Fish very dry,, pepperoni pizza had only a few bits of pepperoni on it, MOSTLY JUST CHEESE and don’t get me started on the onion rings 🤮. Fair enough the staff were lovely. but we came to the restaurant expecting a nice meal and it was anything but nice. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!

We randomly googled places to eat near where we were staying and found this lovely hidden gem five mins away, after the place we’d actually booked had almost everything out of stock and nothing to my partners taste. Glad we found it, lovely food and pudding and very friendly team working there, happy to accommodate us as walk ins. Lovely food, lots of choice! If we’re ever back this way, we’ll be back!

Been here many many times over tge years and always found reasonable value for money. Unfortunately the service is beyond poor and the food falls into the same catagory. On our previous visit, we waited nearly 30 mins for the plates to be cleared & nothing was forthcoming. My Son wanted dessert but i couldn't wait any longer, there was only two other tables in. At that point, I got up to settle the bill, staff crowded around a table chatting with no awareness of customers. People at the Bar were talking amongst themselves saying there was no service. On looking at the menu, you would think you are in a high end establishment, £35 for Fillet Steak and £3.95 for a sauce?? I was recently in a restaurant which is on the Michelin Guide in Queensferry and they were serving Dry Aged Steak for £34, with a sauce included. The food i received came with what looked like factory prepped Carrots and overcooked Peas. I'm sorry, but if you can't prepare your own Veg and can't cook Frozen Peas then you have no right charging the type of money they are asking for in here. Soggy Garlic bread is another example.of the quality of food on offer. Looking at other reviews, the response from the owner suggests that he has possibly got a high opinion of his establishment. That mentality was maybe justified in years gone by but you can't live on past glories. It is has been quiet on my last 2 visits and going by other reviews, the reasons why should be given some merit. It is sad to see the decline.
