The Village Inn in Stirling

A nice wee pub with decent food. We stayed for a short stay at an air b n b in Dunblane and ate in here twice. Both times it was good service, decent hearty food with good portions and at decent price (especially against other local places). Well worth a visit. Ps. The turkey was banging haha

Went in for a few drinks after staying in Dunblane for work. Food looked a bit over priced at the Hydro and other restaurants so decided eat here. I heard them taking about the curry of the week so I rhoughtI would give it a shot. Wow, Piri Piri Cocnut Curry did not let me down. The beers flowed afterwards and the guy behind the bar had good chat to make my night pass faster. Class food and class service.

We had a great day at night on Dunblane with a shirt stay on our way back home. Quaint little pub with very friendly staff. Decided to have some food as food looked very tempting. We weren't disappointed and would highly recommend. Singer was fantastic and had a great time dancing the night away

A great find while wandering around looking for somewhere to eat on a Friday night. Three lovely meals, burger, fried chicken burger and a steak pie. Lovely fresh food, and friendly staff.

Typisches Pub mit entsprechender Speisekarte mit vernünftigen Preisen. Die einzige Bedienung war ziemlich überfordert, was zu Wartezeiten führte. Am Wochenende Live-Musik.

I am confused by the high ratings given by others. It is a nice inn with a good atmosphere. Serivce was good. I skipped the French onion soup since it did not include croutons/bread and cheese as a true French onion soup would have. I had a chicken dish that was a little dry but not bad. I just would not expect a 5 star meal here.

Great service, great atmosphere, great food, great staff. It does what it says on the tin haha. We will be back when in the area!!

Must visit this place!!!!! Publicans are fantastic, very helpful, very friendly, they go out of their way to accommodate you in Anway they can. Food very tasty, good atmosphere. Thanks James for everything.

Stopped off on our way north for a family holiday. Never stopped in Dunblane before so looked for somewhere with good reviews and The Village Inn did not disappoint. The service was outstanding, really friendly staff, and the food was excellent and really reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend this pub and hope to visit again soon

We went for a walk about the town and decided to see what Dunblane had to offer for food. This seemed the best priced and we thought and going on the reviews we went in for drinks and then food when we seen it coming out with the server. Cocktails were cheap for todays prices and drinks very reasonably priced for the town. I had a burger and it was juicy and tasted great. My husband had the Steak Pie and he said it was amazing. Our friends had a Curry, Fish and Chips (the fish was huge!) and Chicken Fajitas. The empty plates said volume. We stayed for the entertainment and the singer was fantastic and the atmosphere was great. Staff were very attentive and friendly. Highly recommend if visiting Dunblane

Very friendly service in a busy wee pub. Steak pie was lovely, plenty of it and prices really reasonable. Really clean and tidy. Would recommend.

We had a great meal and great service on Friday night. The food came quickly and was all very tasty. 10/10 for Blair for keeping our drinks full.

A warm welcome when we entered the pub which was followed by excellent food. The chicken was tender and the macaroni cheese was lovely ; tasty and beautifully presented with garlic bread and a side salad. Would highly recommend a visit. Frequented by locals with a comfortable, friendly atmosphere.

A walk down from Dunblane Hydro to have a warm Welcome. Staff are attentive and friendly and good was good. Thanks to the team for a Nice meal

We booked in for a family birthday. We were able to get the back room for it as there was 28 of us. We already had a pre order in and got a fantastic set menu deal :) The kids were able to use the space in the back room and they had a pool table and kids arcade too so plenty to entertain them. We had a fantastic time and the staff were amazing despite being very busy in the front restaurant as well. I am from the other side of Stirling and wouldn't usually come up to Dunblane but I will definitely be back :) The best steak pie in the area for sure

We had stayed in Dunblane for 5 nights and decided to use the local restaurants. This place was by far the best in Dunblane- we wish we had just ate here everytime ha ha. The only picture we have is our brunch snack of wings and the breakfast stack on the day we were leaving Dunblane. We had evening meals the two nights before and both were top notch, reasonably priced and the best value for money. We stayed back for the Saturday entertainment and had a fantastic night talking to the locals. The servers and bar staff were very friendly and helpful with information about the area. We will definitely be back when in Scotland.

Went for their Christmas Turkey in a large Yorkshire. Wow!! Wished I had taken a photo but I was starving it looked amazing. Great portion and one of the best Christmas dinners I have ever had!! Highly recommend, always amazing food and my go to place when in Dunblane. Staff top notch too

A group of 13 of us went in for Christmas Dinner after seeing their menu was a fantastic price. The food was amazing and the comments on the Turkey and Roast Beef were that it was the best they ever had. I personally opted for Prawns, Turkey and Chocolate Fudge cake. Portions were fantastic and the food was amazing. Definitely the best place in Dunblane to eat. The staff were fantastic and tended to everything we needed. We are all booked in for a catch up in January, see you then guys.

A group of 10 of us nipped in for our Christmas Dinner after reading rhe reviews and seeing the menu on Facebook. The turkey dinner is one of the best I have ever tasted. All the group complimented how good it was. At only £23.95 for a three course meal, it's amazing value for money. Portions are great and pub was nice and clean with a nice warm vibe about it. Highly recommended, we will definitely be back!!

Nipped in on a very busy Christmas Extravaganza night and managed to get fitted in. Despite it being very busy, the service was fast, food was delicious and well presented. The staff were very friendly too. We will definitely be in again

We came with 7 people from Sweden 🇸🇪without a table reservation. But it was no problem at all. It’s really a family pub AND after eating good food 🥘 they tried to call 2 taxis for us with NO result ! So the owner drowe 3 times with his private car to our hotell FOR FREE 🌹💐🌹 LOVELY 😊 PLACE

Excelled food! Went in for 3 different meals over the span of a month while traveling. Each meal was perfection! This pub/inn is very clean and the hospitality is top notch. James,his family and team are just wonderful and if your lucky you might just get a history lesson about the horseshoe on the corner. 10/10

Nipped in on Sunday for drinks after the service. There was a great selection of drinks at a reasonable price. It's been a while since I have been in but will definitely be back. I never had food but it was busy and it looked fantastic.

We were in Dunblane for Rememberence Sunday and nipped in for food and drinks. The staff were fantastic, the food was delicious and a great range of drinks.

Just had the shredded roast beef Nachos for a quick snack and they were amazing. Definitely give them a try.

Food was pretty poor. Staff are friendly, would go again for a drink never for food. Can't unfortunately be more positive. Try the Riverside Inn instead excellent meal last night.

Excellent food and a super friendly service, highly recommended, would recommend if visiting or indeed living near go eat, you won’t regret

Stopped in and got lunch today. Busy wee place but still fast with my toastie and soup. Delicious and worth the stop.

Brilliant food and service. We were served and presented with great food even close to end of food service. Was great all round and will be back.

A lovely friendly pub with great food and good value for money, plus a decent pint, loved the service with a smile.

We stopped in to the Village Inn after a rainy evening to have a quick drink. We had a glimpse at the menu (which was very extensive and looked decent on price) and decided to have food. We both opted for the steak pie (when in Rome haha). The server was very attentive and made us feel welcome and the steak pie was delicious 😋 It was a good size portion but we still opted to share a desert too. We went for the hot millionaire shortbread with ice cream and it topped off a fantastic meal. The service was delightful so opted for a bottle of red to finish off a great evening.

Came in after seeing the Sunday Roast advertised. Fantastic value for money for me and my partner. Kids had macaroni and chicken goujons and all 4 of us had empty plates. We opted for Waffles, Apple Crumble and 2 chocolate fudge cakes for the kids. Again, nice and tasty. Service was fantastic.

Popped in for late Sunday lunch and was lucky to get the last table - the place is small, so would definitely recommend booking. Service a little slow because it was so busy but food made up for it. The roast beef was delicious and the portions were very generous! We will absolutely be back and will recommend to our friends.

Stopped off at this fantastic place and got a full breakfast for lunch. Portion size was fantastic and a good selection of drinks. The young waiter was friendly and although the place was busy, the wait time was very reasonable. Would highly recommend and will be back.

Pleasant local bar with friendly staff and decent beers . It’s right in the village centre so it’s name is very apt . Don’t know about the food as never ate here , but seems to have a good name for food .

We called on our way back from a weekend away for lunch. I had roast beef, the beef was ok but everything else on the plate was frozen food, nothing fresh, my husband had fish and chips, he said the fish was ok but everything else was poor. Staff were lovely.

Friendly welcome, staff were helpful and cheerful. Food was lovely, not rushed which gave us time to chat. Good choice on menu for food and well stocked bar

Great value evening meal. We arrived on a Monday evening without a reservation. We were surprised to see the pub was busy as it was off season but we were quickly given a table. Despite only one person serving both drinks and food, they did...

Nice and attentive staff, food amazing, really big portions and not too expensive. Would come back if in this area again.

Staying at the Hydro and was looking for something a little less hard on the wallet for dinner. Friendly welcome with a great menu with something for everyone. Great choice of drinks including non alcoholic cider which I drink and not everywhere stocks. I had...

Have been in Village Inn before and really enjoyed our food however not today. Starters were great but Steak pie and vegetables lukewarm. The steak pie had a funny taste as if it was maybe off so I didn't finish it and neither did my...

Another great visit to this dog friendly pub. Once again we stayed in the Dunblane Hydro and went out to find a meal. The pub was great with a great menu - Amanda, the chef is clearly talented. We particularly recommend the haggis bon bons....

First class food and service from the lovely bar staff and brilliant chef. We were warmly welcomed and well looked after with the kindly chef even organising our taxi back to the hotel for us. We cannot thank them all enough, you are a credit...

The village was closed the first night we came down but we booked for the next night and were not dissappinted. Pickled Gherkins were amazing (we were recommended by someone in the hotel) and a big portion of breaded mushrooms with lovely garlic mayo and...

Great food and general feel off pub .Steak pie in particular was very good and maybe surprisingly vegetables on dish perfectly cooked and not overcooked mush you may sometimes get .Staff very good and were seated and served in good time.

We were staying at the Hilton near by and decided to walk into the village for lunch, popped in for food and a few drinks it was delicious and good value for money.

We visited a local popular eating place in Dunblane , but my wife didn't like the menu or prices, so we stumbled across The Village Inn, with a varied and competitively priced menu. My wife loved the chicken and rice soup and I enjoyed the...

Had a lovely family meal whilst on a weekend break! Staff were very welcoming, food was very tasty, arrived promptly, was all hot, large portions and a great price . Thank you 😊

All good, couldn't fault our visit. Food was excellent, plentiful and staff friendly and attentive. It was our first visit but won't be the last.

We waited 45 minutes for our starters, with not one single staff member approaching us. Our drinks were finished so we decided to pay for our drinks and leave. 45 minutes after ordering and no contact from staff is unacceptable.

Food was fantastic. Fish and chips and cajun chicken superb. Andy (temporary bar staff) was lovely. Brilliant boozy lunch with friends x

My husband and I visited Dunblane and, based on previous reviews, decided to try The Village Inn for our evening meal. We’re so glad we did, what fantastic service and delicious food.

I would like to thank all the staff for all they done. Buffet was amazing and service was great. Thank you again had a great evening. Cheers James x

A great pub, really friendly staff especially Blair who was really accommodating. The food was lovely and a friendly atmosphere.

Pleasant, friendly welcome. Seated quickly with our 2 dogs . Lovely local vibe We both had the breaded haddock which was so fresh and tasty . Great service . Definitely would return .

My family and I were spending a few days in Dunblane and decided to book the Village Inn for an early tea (4:30pm). The lady who served us (didn’t catch her name) was very friendly and helpful. There was lots of choice on the menu....

Sunday, early evening dinner. Roast beef with veg, Yorkshire pudding etc and mixed fajitas. Only diners at 5pm, wee bit slow but I guess that might be a good thing if all made from scratch. Good portion sizes, attentive staff and decent prices. Better than...

James and Angie the owners are awesome and make this place what it is! Good atmosphere and great reputation for food.

So...we are staying at dunblane hydro and the meal at the village Inn was absolutely incredible, way better than the nick Nairn dunblane restaurant. I had chicken pakora starter and steak pie for main, the wife had brie and fajitas, the meal was amazing I...

We had a couple of days in town and wanted a pub for some atmosphere and pub grub The Village inn delivered this in bucket loads Great friendly staff and amazing staff

Just got back from the village Inn for my mums birthday, food was excellent and great service, well managed establishment from James and Angie, would definitely recommend.

Had a very tasty lunch here. However, the staff were not wearing masks while walking around. Nit acceptable during a pandemic. Pity, because the food was very good.

We had dinner here during our stay in Dunblane. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and accommodating. When we had to change our booked time to later it wasn’t a problem. The service and food were excellent. The atmosphere was very friendly. Very good...

Love coming here at least once a week with my family food is amazing and the staff are really nice and kind too xx

Food was very Tasty, still Hot Take Away. Because of corona virus. Burger was Amazing. Cajun chicken is Really Good.

I have had several meals from here before and they never disappoint. If anything they get better each time I come.

This place is a little gem, friendly staff and really welcoming. Food is great, good wholesome grub. Would highly recommend to anyone. Cant wait to go back.

Popped in here for lunch and all I can say is wow food was amazing prices very reasonable. Service was good highly recommend

After a long shift, popped in for a drink with my friends. On arrival we were greeted with smiles, the service in the village really is amazing. Even in the midst of the pandemic the staff put themselves on the front line of it all...

Had a lovely meal, food was amazing as always and the service was second to none. Track and trace was spot on, the toilets were spotless with a lovely little basket of bits and bobs for the ladies to use. The staff were helpful and...

I've heard so many good reports about the Village Inn, so when my friends and I went too weeks ago, we were extremely disappointed. They did not take track and trace from me or my friend. We sat at a table, which seated the 6...

Place is seriously unclean, more flies than the fallin tip. Just had around 4 months of lockdown to freshen the place up a bit. Didn’t take track and trade details and now this place has been linked to coronavirus? They should be on the ball but however not. Food is absolutely bang average, service as slow as a week in the jail. Definitely not be back.

Had a lovely family meal here. Service was great it can't be easy working in covid conditions but a credit to your staff. Thank you. X

We booked a table at 2:15 and didn’t get seated until 2:40 because there was a mix up which was okay, didn’t receive a starter until 3:30!!!! An hour and 15 minutes after our booking... Couple sat across from us have eaten starter and main then left before we even got our starter, they also arrived after us. Starter returned at 3:45, main received at 4pm, nearly 2 hours after arrival... The food was lovely but service was not good at all

The ladies in this bar could do enough for us! Spent lots of time arranging a taxi that would accommodate us and the dog and the service was great. Good COVID controls and the dog loved his water bowl and chopped chicken breast. Only let down was the mashed potato, quite stale and lumpy or this would have 5 stars!! Thank you.

Popped in and stayed all afternoon great service and good home cooked food. Felt safe during this pandemic.

Co-vid restrictions are not designed to enhance your eating experience but staff at the Village Inn were really well organised , friendly and efficient . We ordered Steak Pie ( succulent) and Battered Fish ( huge and tasty ) , both sourced locally . The Inn takes ' Pub Grub ' to the next level . Thoroughly recommend .

Just finished a lovely roast beef lunch for Father’s Day. Delivered by the kids but definitely cooked by the Village Inn.

We ate here while on an overnight stay in Dunblane midweek. The staff were both so attentive and friendly which made us feel very welcome. We just ordered main courses and both enjoyed our delicious hot, freshly cooked food. The portion sizes were generous at a reasonable cost and we would definitely return here if in this area again.

We walked to Dunblane from the place we were staying.Found a dog friendly pub. Decided to have lunch from the lunch menu. We both went for the steak pie. It was fabulous melt in the mouth meat and well cooked flaky pastry. Would recommend the pie. Also had a pudding of chocolate fudge cake was light and fluffy. Other half had apple pie. He enjoyed it. Looking at the menu after we ordered lunch. Found something that sounded great. Went back the next evening to try the chicken breast stuffed with black pudding and wrapped in bacon with chive mash and vegetables. OMG. It was fabulous. Followed by a cheese board of locally made cheeses. Dogs love a good pub too.

Me and my wife visited this place for dinner on Monday night, food was delicious, barman who was working made us feel really welcome, will definitely come back again.

We ate here on a Saturday night while we were staying in Dunblane for the weekend. It was very busy but we got a table and ordered food. It took a while to arrive at our table but I assume it was due to it being so busy. The food was piping hot and freshly made. Really tasty! We would definitely go back if we were in the area again.

We were given a gift voucher for here along with a stay at a local hotel. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left we were made to feel really welcome and given excellent service.There was a varied menu, along with a specials one. We also got a gluten free menu which was very helpful with our little ones allergies.Food was good, prices were reasonable. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Really enjoyed our visit!

Not bad. Was nice atmosphere. I didn’t eat but the food looked good. Nice bar staff kids allowed in back room

A Dunblane resident, I hadn’t eaten here in years but will certainly be back. Really tasty steak pie, proper pub food, not overly fancy but well presented. Throw in a genuinely friendly landlord offering great service and it was a very enjoyable evening.

Enjoyable second visit within a few months- dinner for two. I had the bacon cheese burger and fries with my wife enjoying a Sunday roast. Good portions and very tasty. Staff were very nice.

We were stopping at the nearby Hydro and fancied a stroll in to town for a bite to eat. We happened upon The Village Inn and decided to give it a go. The menu was quite varied with the usual pub classics as well as a few other options. The service was great, extremely friendly, and the food equally as good. I wholeheartedly recommend the Stornaway black pudding stuffed chicken with pepper sauce, I’m afraid the picture really doesn’t do it justice. Delicious. We’d definitely visit again.

popped in whilst staying at the hydro - had a bite to eat and a few drinks - staff all very nice food too - even called us a taxi as the walk back was all uphill lol

Visited Dunblane Village Inn for a Friday evening meal and it was exactly what it says in the name......it's your traditional Village Inn.
