The Waterfront Restaurant in Perth & Kinross

Booked Dinner here during our second visit this year at Kenmore and what a Bonnie restaurant. Staff were so attentive and every one of them worked so hard whilst the restaurant was full. Food was simply delicious with cleared plates. Great selection of drinks with a gorgeous bar, Ice Breaker was my favourite pint served in a stunning matching Glass….Thanks Heather ;) . We will return again from Coatbridge. I Highly recommend Heathers Waterfront restaurant to everyone whether it’s a daytime coffee and cake to sit outside, or a bar lunch or brunch….or evening meal with a view… don’t miss it! Graeme…

The Waterfront at the Kenmore club is the premier place to eat in Kenmore, food excellent, service excellent, views to die for whatever the weather, I couldn’t compliment them enough it’s a five star from me and as a solo traveler it’s sometimes difficult to book for 1, book your table before travelling is the only advice I’d give

Unfortunately my review is not about food but rather the attitude of the person in charge of the restaurant. We tried to book for a family celebration 9 adults 5 children (after booking 3 cottages at the Kenmore Club);We were told we could not be accommodated due to shortage of staff.That’s fair enough but the manner and aggressive attitude of the manageress was disgraceful.

2nd time here for dinner , first time was 5 years ago. Food was lovely staff very friendly and attentive, will definitely return if we are in the area again in future

This is the second time we have eaten here and have to say that not only were we made very welcome by all the staff, they were polite, friendly and attentive; The food is also excellent. I would highly recommend eating here, although you will have to book in advance as it does get booked up! Thank you for your excellent service.

We visited as were staying across the road at the Mains of Taymouth Estate. The views we thought would be stunning (which was the case) however the staff were so rude and abrupt to my family I would never return and certainly not recommend. We've never been made to feel so unwelcome and their attitude was appalling. The staff are an embarrassment to their trade. An awful experience. For reference the vast majority of my other reviews are 5 star for venues where customer service is paramount.

Food was amazing, the lamb shank was to die for, falling off the bone! Deserts were amazing too, would highly recommend the crème brûlée. The service is excellent and the staff are very friendly. They go above and beyond for you. We have been going here for over 10 years and have loved every visit.

Great location overlooking Loch Tay, good friendly service and the food is excellent. Good menu choice and beautifully cooked.

We had a terrible experience here. The food and the service were awful. My friend had the slow roasted lamb shank. It was hard, definitely not falling off the bone and, as she described, inedible. I had the smoked salmon pasta which was tasteless. I needed to load it with salt and pepper to get any flavour at all. But the service was something else. We arrived at 7.30 and were hassled into placing an order asap. 5 times within a space of 10 mins was I approached to order. We felt rushed to eat as well. The cottages are gorgeous but give the restaurant a miss. The one across the road, the Courtyard, is a better option.

Booked the Waterfront Restaurant for a family members 40th birthday celebration. The service we received from the staff was first class and the quality of food served was excellent throughly enjoyed of experience at the Waterfront. Nothing was to much bother for staff. We also have to thank the young waitress (sorry we didn't get your name) who took time to come outside and take a family photograph for us which was greatly appreciated and an excellent photograph too.

3 times for dinner, staying the Kenmore Club. Fabulous staff, really attentive to detail, friendly, teamwork, and able to order off the menu requests without fuss (all credit to the Chef). Great choices of fresh fish, venison (gorgeous), beef stroganoff (gorgeous!) and varies menu. Special mention to Chloe, who looked after us so beautifully, calm (it was busy) and helpful, remembering what we had the night before, did not rush us. ALL of the staff were as helpful, and great teamwork going on. Don;t miss this place. Overlooking the Loch, and decking area really relaxing

We were staying in a cottage on the resort and booked ahead of our visit as advised. Staff were very friendly and the food was excellent, couldn't fault it at all. My steak was extremely tasty and cooked to perfection. The restaurant sits right on the banks of Loch Tay and has a lovely outside space as well. No good to us during Storm Kathleen ! I'd be more than happy to return.

We have already had two fantastic meals on our return to Kenmore.Although the menu is reduced from previously, the quality of food is excellent and there is a reasonable selection to choose from. My wife and I have both had the venison and stroganoff which with the smoked salmon and crayfish adds up to a delicious meal.Heather and all the staff are very attentive to all their customers and could not do more to make the dining experience one to savour.We are staying in Kenmore for another 12 days and will certainly go back many more times. It is unusual to find a restaurant of such quality in a holiday resort, but long may it cotinue

We had an absolutely delicious meal here. Started off with drinks outside in sun, followed by dinner inside. The staff were friendly, the restaurant was very covid safe and the food was amazing. The venison was gorgeous. Make sure you book in advance.

Fantastic location with stunning views over Loch Tay. Service was quick and food very good. Well worth a visit

A lovely location, so why not do better food? Making full allowance for lack of atmosphere in COVID times , the meal was a disappointment to me because there was nothing going on with the plate of fish and chips that would lift it to the £15 being charged. I would recommend you cook for yourself in your holiday accommodation if I am being honest. Places like this really need to provide something a bit special to make it other than a pretty pedestrian experience.

We had another lovely meal in this restaurant. We hadn’t been since 2019 due to restrictions etc. We only have 2 nights in Kenmore and we had no hesitation to book for dinner here. We’re also looking forward to having lunch today.

My wife and I were in Kenmore a few months back and booked into the Waterfront Restaurant for dinner on Thursday evening. On entering you immediately notice the spectacular views of Loch Tay and the staff were very friendly and welcoming and explained all the COVID rules. I ordered potatoe & leek soup for starters that was accompanied with a bread roll and Steak Pie for main course whcih was accompanied with chips and a selection of vegetables. The food was really nice, well presented and everything tased great. I woud go back there if in the area and I always recommend to others - loved the food

We’ve been coming to Kenmore for years but this was our first visit to the Waterfront and left us questioning why we hadn’t been before as it was excellent. The staff were all lovely and they were all adhering to the strict Covid guidelines that they had in place which is very reassuring. Our food was lovely, we both had the black pudding and goats cheese as a starter and loved it, the venison was delicious as was the fish and chips. Will definitely visit again when we are next in Kenmore.

Great place for a family lunch/dinner! We keep coming back to this restaurant when we travel to highlands. Stunning views across the loch, very bright airy dining space, very friendly and quick service. Plenty to choose from the menu and the prices seem more than reasonable!

Kenmore is small and therefore restaurants limited, but the Waterfront restaurant is definitely worth a visit. Mine, my husbands and daughters food were all really good, as was the service. Strict Co-Vid rules which is reassuring. You won't be disappointed.

We visited the Waterfront restaurant on the first night of our stay in Kenmore and the experience was perfect from start to finish. We arrived early and had a drink on the terrace watching the sun go down over the loch. The staff were lovely, the service was great and the food was really excellent. We ordered 2 steaks, which can be hit or miss when eating out but these were cooked perfectly and very good value for money. We would definitely recommend eating here and we look forward to visiting again soon.

We had a lovely meal here. Got a table for an early dinner. Enjoyed the sea bass with risotto and the beef stroganoff. All Covid precautions were followed and it felt like a very safe experience. Also nice to look out on Loch Tay.

This restaurant really surpassed our expectations and was a wonderful evening out. The staff were really friendly, attentive but not overly so. The food was amazing!! We didn’t know what to expect but every dish was just perfect. We had goats cheese and black pudding, whitebait, haggis in the hole and avocado salads, venison, stroganoff and sea bass finished with creme brûlée’s. It was all so tasty and a really nice atmosphere and a good view. Thank you :)

We were slightly disappointed not to be able to book a table for an evening meal during our holiday but I guess it shows how popular this place and how well they are complying with the Covid 19 restrictions. We were able to visit for lunch and were so glad we did. During the visit I felt very safe and the staff really do everything they can to reduce the risks for the customers and themselves. Tables were well spaced and a strict one way system was in place. Despite the Covid madness, the staff were very friendly and the food was amazing. Portions were large and very good value for money. I hope to be able to get back for an evening meal when things have settled down.

We love this restaurant and always make a point to visit when we are in the area . I was slightly worried as This is the first time since March that I have ventured out to a restaurant and I was so impressed by all the safety measures in place and how comfortable I felt. I just wish I lived closer !! The Staff were on the ball in regards to being Covid compliant , very friendly and professional and the Food was excellent as usual. Thank you for doing an excellent job.

This is the second time I visit the waterfront in Kenmore I had the same thought of almost a year and a half ago excellent place fantastic View to the loch Food excellent fantastic service with a smile even if they were wearing mask because of the pandemic I’m definitely coming back with my friends in the near future the only things we cannot guarantee about this place is the weatherWell done

Did not have great expectations for a resort restaurant and in the current situation but we had no reason to worry!Everything was handled with great professionalism by the young but brilliant staff.Also the food was excellent as was the wine!Also the location of the restaurant is simply perfect!We will definitely visit again!!

What a lovely welcome, great service, fantastic food, throughly enjoyed the evening! Can’t thank Heather and her team enough, best restaurant in the area by far

Heather and her team were wonderful, whether we had drinks or a meal. We felt completely looked after and more importantly safe. Their system seems sound, tables were well spaced out and the food was wonderful. Even when our 8 year old was unsure of whether to have a 'normal' meal or a childs menu meal nothing was too much trouble. We were guided by Heather. She seems very well suited to a role in hospitality! We plan to visit again once the pandemic is over so we can experience the 'real' non masked heather and team. This was only the 2nd time we had ventured out to eat in kenmore and we felt safe and reasonably relaxed. We felt much more comfortable than we did in another establishment. We would highly recommend The Waterfront Restaurant - hagis in the hole was an absolute winner!

Amazing quality food During the recent pandemic our evening meal in August was epic all the staff made the best of the new rules and precautions within the restaurant . Professional from start to finish Food was some of the best we had Well deserved ratings Steak pie is a must

Despite a bit of confusion about our dinner reservation the staff were brilliant! Seated us out on the patio with some complimentary drinks while we waited on a table. Service was perfect and the lady in charge couldn’t do enough to make us feel welcome and accommodated. Food was amazing and the views even more so! Only been a week or so since restaurants can open up again but the staff seem to have taken it all in their stride ☺️

Fantastic food and service. Visited last night and had an amazing meal. Real homemade food and a great choice.

We managed to book for a special birthday celebration just as they reopened this year. We were greeted and treated brilliantly by all staff. Everyone being nervous about new restrictions and safety precautions, staff made us aware of new procedures and made us feel at ease. Staff very friendly and food was simply delicious and drinks just awesome. Our 2 hour slot ran out but was able to finish our drinks on the outdoor deck with the amazing view over the loch. I have been here many times and I still rate it very highly.

So much care and attention to customers and their well being even in the current climate. special attention taken wiping the menus down prior to handing them out and subsequent to taking them in. The Cutlery was provided as we were seated. although very busy our order was taken with speed and from the time it was taken to our food arriving was very quick. The food was hot and delicious and of our party of 7 there were absolutely no complaints. lovely food and reasonably priced and the restaurant is spotless. excellent service, Thank you.

Stopped in for a spot of lunch and we were not disappointed. Staff were very friendly and the menu was ideal. My husband had Salmon baguette and I had a toasted sandwich we also had a portion of handcut chips ...mmm tasty also a lovely chilled glass of white wine. Would definitely recommend.

My husband and I had dinner at the restaurant during a short break to Aberfeldy.It is a short scenic drive from Aberfeldy. The restaurant looks directly on to Loch Tay.All food served was beautifully cooked and tasty and served by friendly efficient staff who went out of their way to provide an excellent service. Thank you so much!

Great service. Nice wine list and a good end of trip meal. We were down for a wee trip last week and had a great meal. Thanks waterfront

Popped in here for a lunch and was really looking forward to it, however, both my husband and I ordered lightly battered fish. It was probably the worst fish we've had. The heavy batter was dripping in grease. We took all the batter off and and ate the small piece of fish it was covering. The waiter took our plates away and didn't ask if there was something wrong with food. Was really disappointed as we have eaten here several times and food as well as the service has always been good. Won't stop us going back but wouldn't get fish again.

We ate here 3 times. Delicious food and the staff and owners really make you welcome. Thursday night they have a singer on who was superb-Robert Carmichael, really made the night. Advise you book here

A beautifully located restaurant right beside Loch Tay and offering a very comprehensive and reasonably priced lunch menu. Food was delicious and staff very friendly. Can certainly recommend it.

My wife and I opted to dine here on a Thursday night as their is a singer on, the young guy who served was very pleasant, and the food and drinks were very nice, the singer took requests , everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. Would certainly visit again

Не могу сказать что я получила много удовольствия от посещения этого ресторана. Очень удивлена такой высокой оценке. Мой сибас с ризотто был очень посредственный. Стейк моего друга был таким же. Ничего особенного. Но мы не были в других ресторанах в этой местности, поэтому сравнить не могу. Я осталась довольной моим десертом - он на фото. Хотела бы отметить конечно отличную работу персонала. Все было очень быстро и доброжелательно. Это конечно большой плюс этому заведению. Второй раз точно не пошла бы.

As a few others have said, we went along after reading the many good reviews. Was rather surprised to find the food was very average. At £25 my steak with crayfish was well-cooked but a pretty mediocre piece of meat and the accompanying veg were very ordinary too. My partner also found her sea bass nothing special. The best thing we had was the apple and cinnamon crumble which was a special - this was light and tasty. Also good were the staff who were friendly and helpful at all times including helping us move to another table away from a very noisy large party. They made the 3 star review worth giving, it could have been two otherwise. To sum up - we ate a meal at Gleneagles for the same price a few days earlier that was ten times as good.

Не могу сказать что я получила большое удовольствие от посещения этого ресторана. Не знаю почему у него такой высокий рейтинг здесь. Сравнить я не могу, потому что не ходила в другие заведения в этой местности. Я заказала сибас и он был с ризотто. Странное сочетание... Блюдо очень посредственное. Мой друг заказал стейк. Тоже ничего особенного. Цены, к счастью, не очень высокие. Но для такого качества блюд всё же завышенные. Брали ещё десерты. Абрикосовый чизкейк не произвёл впечатление. Мой яблочный десерт был вкусный! В этом ресторане отличное обслуживание. Очень быстро! Но второй раз я бы не пошла.

oh I love this place - great service friendly helpful staff - well managed I had the haggis toad in the hole - it was so good I had it again on our second night - sea bass was very moreish as was the risotto - on the second evening I had the chicken with mushroom jus - very nice indeed my friend had the duck with cherry and we both had clean plates but sadky only had room for icecream and a Perth gin

Fantastic from start to finish .. young gentleman serving us was outstanding Sunday 5th January 7.30 -9 pm . Will definitely be back !!

My title covers it all. The staff are always very friendly and attentive, the food is delicious - locally sourced ingredients I think. Good value, and a lovely setting both internally and the outlook. They sometimes have evening entertainment on too I believe. Really worth a visit.

Booked on back of Tripadvisor ratings. Overall we had a decent meal, venison haunch excellent but duck with roasted roots although tasty was barely warm. Service good with regular visits to ask if we were enjoying our meal. Not much atmosphere, could do with a real candle

We stumbled across the restaurant in June this year on our yearly holiday in Loch Tay and were glad to return this week (twice) , the food is amazing , reasonable prices and the service is excellent. Can’t wait to come back again in June.

Great food, pleasant and efficient service, reasonably priced, nice surroundings. Good menu, just enough meals to choose from.

Excellent choice of good Scottish fare. Cosy atmosphere and lovely staff. Gets booked quickly so best to book in advance.

Beautiful restaurant with great views and very good food, plenty to choose from, staff very friendly, and a relaxing atmosphere

My wife and I popped in here for a coffee at lunch time, at the end of a long walk while staying in Kenmore for a few days. As we approached the the door to the restaurant we were a bit miffed to find a board stating that " sorry, restaurant fully booked this evening " as we hadn't pre booked. However, we still enquired about the possibilities of a table for that evening and on our exit Heather ( owner who we had just met ) said she'd managed to somehow fit us in.

My wife and I while staying in Kenmore for a few days, popped in here for a coffee yesterday afternoon 6th Nov, after our long walk.

We popped in for a drink in the afternoon while out walking. It was empty when we were in so couldn’t get an atmosphere but it looked really nice set out for evening meals and the view was beautiful.

We had dinner at this restaurant on Sunday evening with my daughter, son in law and 16 month old granddaughter. The staff were attentive and helpful and the food delicious. My son in law had been feeling unwell and they took time to discuss what he would like, even though it wasn't on the menu. First class attention.

First class Scottish fayre. Couldn't fault any of the dishes we had. We had duck, venison, Highland chicken and steak pie. The staff work very hard as this place was fully booked Friday, Saturday, and Sunday during our stay in Kenmore and that speaks volumes. My husband was also treated to a free pint as it was his birthday and the staff really looked after us. A first class restaurant with a first class view up Loch Tay, simply stunning, very happy customers.

A wonderful meal, sumptuous food. Staff very attentive. Great atmosphere. Couldn't praise more highly .

We went in without a reservation and soon realised that was a mistake - the place was packed full of happy diners! We almost weren't x2 of them (my new husband and I) but the lovely, warm hospitable manager made room for us on a table that wasn't normally used as a dining table, and we had a great evening! The food was amazing ! The staff were all so friendly the view is spectacular, definitely go for dinner here- but reserve a table ! Thank you Waterfront Restaurant!

Very impressed with everything at this Restaurant. We had eaten numerous times before but turned up without reservation, staff very obliging and seated us immediately, menu exceptional and atmosphere lovely. All in all lovely evening

Familiär und freundlich, ein Restaurant, in dem man sich niedersetzen kann, und bei bodenständigen Gerichten einen spektakulären Seeblick genießen kann.

We have stayed at the Kenmore Club for the last few years but only use the restaurant occasionally, because we always have our dog with us and unfortunately there is no opportunity to take our mutt even into the bar area. I have made suggestions previously to the club that, as they encourage dog owners to stay in the lodges they should make some arrangements to enable people with dogs to eat in a bar area.

Spent two nights at the hotel and had breakfast each morning plus an evening meal. The food was good and the service was also. What a beautiful place to dine...so peaceful and scenic. Scotland at its best...

First time here, lovely location, right on the loch side. We had a very relaxing enjoyable meal. The food was very good and the staff were friendly and welcoming.

Superb views of the loch from a very good restaurant. Not cheap, but the food was very well presented.

Lovely meal on Saturday for my daughter's birthday. Menu is good for both adults and children.

Went for dinner and as always staff are friendly and helpful and the food is lovely.

Went for lunch , hadn’t booked , so just popped in to ask if we could have a table . The waiter was really helpful and even though they were busy managed to sort us a table overlooking the loch . It’s a lovely view and setting is perfect .

We had a very tasty meal here in lovely surroundings. The view to the water was beautiful.

The food here is delicious, but you must book in advance as its always busy. We also had lunch and it was delicious also. Service is great and highly recommend

We stopped there for dinner. Staff were really friendly and helpful, the food was good and the wine was great. We had a reservation which was great because when they opened was fully booked. Reasonable price.

You might well need to book to get table. You'll need to book because it's popular, especially at weekends. It's popular because it's good. It's good because Cameron and his team can and do really cook.

Great location and fantastic staff. Good sized portions and lovely meal. Great for kids and families. Reasonable prices.

We sit here on a calm and beautiful July evening on the banks of Loch Tay having just enjoyed a delicious meal, served by very pleasant and attentive staff. This is not our first visit to the restaurant and I’m sure it won’t be our last.

Lovely restaurant, with superb outside views and good food & drink. We ate on a Saturday lunchtime, at which time there was only one waiter - who said it would be at least 30 minutes before he could even take our order. Granted there was a large group eating lunch, but the restaurant was only half full and he was desperately overworked. Things eventually settled down, and we had a very nice afternoon - but work needed to be a genuine 5 star review in my opinion.

Absolutely stunning views fabulous food staff could not have been more attentive will certainly return

Excellent food, excellent service, good value. What more do you need? The rack of lamb was tender and cooked as requested (pink). Venison got a big thumbs up as did the chicken. Desserts were tasty and generous. Recommend booking ahead.

Stopped off for a sandwich and tea and it was delicious lovely place small shop to look around later on had a home made ice cream cone had two scoops and it was more like four it was excellent plenty of seats to sit outside and just along from other cafes and the water ideal for a quick stop for something to eat.

Thanks to Heather and the staff in the Waterfront, they were great to arrange the meal beforehand and put up the banners. The food and service was amazing.

We've just returned from a lovely evening at The Waterfront. We thought that the food was fab and really enjoyed the live music too! We are only sorry that it's taken us this long (we've been here since Saturday) to eat here! We shall definitely book in next time we're in town.

If you are staying near here it will be hard to beat this place for eating out. The location is beautiful, overlooking Loch Tay. Staff are super friendly and helpful and create a relaxed atmosphere. The food is very good. Starter of pigeon breast

Thursday night is Music night! A guitarist plays soft gentle music whilst you have your meal.

We booked for a Thursday evening here as there was live music, a folksy-gentle rock dinger/guitarist. We had a great table overlooking Loch Tay and the service was excellent: the right mix of attentive and leaving you alone to enjoy your evening.

This is the perfect spot to have a dinner at night, looking onto Loch Tay.. Meal was excellent with great service.

After visiting the area for many years we have never been to the waterfront restaurant and I’m glad to say we remedied this today , what a lovely restaurant fantastic views excellent service and the food was amazing ! We will definitely be back !

As soon as we entered the restaurant you could see it was clean immaculately laid tables with a wonderful view of loch Tay. The lady running the restaurant was obviously experienced made us feel welcome took our drinks order and presented us with menus.good choice on menu with a specials board as well . Our first impressions continued food was excellent with proper size portions unlike the child’s portions you seem to get everywhere else,,young girl and boy helping we’re good also. So good dined there last 5 nights of holiday great food drinks and service very reasonably priced.

Excellent food and ambience. I loved it... the toastie and the haddock was too good and so was the risotto. Very good service and lovely view Thanks for the great service

A very enjoyable lunch with large portion sizes, sitting at a table with a fantastic view over Loch Tay. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

Restaurant was highly recommended and given how difficult it was to get a booking, expectations were high. Staff were friendly and service was good. The steak pie was excellent however the beef stroganoff was very disappointing. Dish was very dry

A lovely location, over looking the Loch, excellent food and service, highly recommended. We will be back

There was plenty of choice in terms of food and drinks. The overall service was incredible - the staff were so helpful and cheerful. they were also happy to make any changes needed to the food. there were six of us and six clean plates at the end of a fantastic meal.

Hard to believe we ate in the same place as some of the other reviews. To be fair i can only comment on a limited part of the menu, however, it is our experience and it baffles me how places think they can get away with charging for such poor food.

Unfotunately this was not a good dining experience . Burger was below average, although presented ok. Chips were awful. On a par that a soft play offer. Even loaded with salt and ketchup they taste of nothing. They fill the plate but that's about it.

Lovely restaurant in an excellent setting overlooking Loch Tay, we were welcomed and shown to our table by a friendly member of staff and all other staff we came in contact with shown a similar friendly and professional standard of service. We were a party of four and the food when it arrived was not only very tasty but was presented in a most appetising way on the plate and all the main courses were of sufficient portions to satisfy all. The bill for four with drinks was very reasonable I will make a point of returning to this restaurant.

A fantastic venue with stunning vies, excellent service and fantastic food. Tried the haddock and chips it was excellent. The other items on the menu are also great.

This restaurant is part of a Timeshare complex, but is open to the public. Lovely location, as the name suggests, on the shores of a lough. Elegant decor, comfortable, tables not too close together, and good service, and great food. Hubby started with the soup, and I had the mackerel pate. This came in a slice, which was quite bizarre, instead of in a ramekin, or a quenelle, but the flavour was good.

Have visited here a few times now and the standard of food is always high. Can recommend it and if you visit during daylight hours you get a great view of the loch

Visited The Waterfront Restaurant within The Kenmore Club tonight with the family for the 3rd year in a row. We were a party of 6 and the meal was lovely. We can recommend the Haggis in the Hole, which is a haggis filled yorkshire pudding the pigeon starter and the homemade tomato soup. We had a selection of main courses but can vouch for the sirloin steaks which were cooked to perfection. We were so full that mist of us only managed ice cream as a dessert. They have a great selection of gins as well. Service was prompt and with a smile. Well worth a visit if you’re in the vicinity.

What a beautiful setting! Unfortunately in February it gets dark fairly early bu5 I can imagine in the summer how lovely the outlook must be from the restaurant sitting on the shores of the loch. The food was amazing. I had Cajun chicken (without the bun) and what a lovely fillet of chicken it was, accompanied by good chips, homemade coleslaw and salad. My husband had a brilliant beef burger (again without the bun!) with chips etc. We finished with creme brûlée and what a treat that was!
