Tir na nOg in Stirling

Fantastic place! The chef and wait staff were very friendly, and went above and beyond in providing excellent customer service from start to finish. The cafe has a nice range of gluten-free dishes; I had the BLT sandwich and potato-leek soup, which were delicious! I can't wait to go back and try the other items on the menu. Highly recommended!

We had brunch today and it was superb. Karina served us and made the best recommendations, the food was great, she also made us so welcome and looked after us. We will be back. Thank you

This place has a great atmosphere and excellent food. Always remember to say “Pompidou” multiple times during your visit. The staff really love it!

We drove past the signs as we have done many occasions before and this time as we were hungry decided to turn back and go in for lunch. So glad we did and will be the last time we simply drive past. It was delicious. The food was fresh and delicious. The cakes were even better in particular the scones with fresh cream and jam! Prices were very reasonable considering everything is fresh and locally sourced / produced. The staff were very friendly and warming. Attentive yet not intrusive. The wee shop next door was very good aswell. Lots of little trinkets and lovely gifts. Overall we were very happy and will return. Hopefully next time its a little warmer outside and will allow us to go on the walk which they have on site.

Cosy cafe serving healthy homemade food which varies each day, always plenty of vegan and gluten free options. I’ve had a few tasty vegan meals here including soups, falafel and salads, mushroom pate and oat cakes, coffees and vegan gluten free cakes. They also have vegan Mayo and milks, and made me a side of vegan coleslaw. Friendly and helpful staff, dog friendly depending how many dogs are in the cafe, indoor and outdoor seating. this cafe is next to the Tir Na Nog holistic centre which has a great shop with crystals, candles and holistic items. In addition there is a magical walk here through the faery woodlands.

I'm reliably informed that the soup was absolutely outstanding although I remain virulently opposed to it. Which is why I had some very nice bruschetta instead. The fella working there was very friendly although a point off for the toilet. A clean would be nice.

My pasta was not fresh - It had clearly been frozen and then defrosted. I was served cake with mould on the bottom.

Lovely staff, relaxed atmosphere, cosy surroundings, quirky and unique. Perfect healthy food, vegan and gluten free options. Homemade simple rustic menu makes it a perfect place to stop for breakfast or lunch. Shop has fantastic array of gifts.

Just excellent. Would highly recommend the soups and the friendly service. Fantastic value for money.

Firewalked on Winter Solstice. What an experience!. Amazing! Oona leads the group and quickly puts you at ease. Initially wondered what what we would be doing for 4 hours, but between drawing visual board, arrow break and preparing/lighting & firewalk and drinks/discussion after it the time passed soo quickly. I would thoroughly recommend it. I loved it. P.S The Soup Dragon cafe serves fantastic grub & the shop has a great choice (Loved the Wiccan section) Peace & Blessings

Recommended by a family friend it starts as a nice picturesque drive from Dumbarton. We didn’t try any of the treatments or courses this time but we did sample the shop and cafe. I picked up some satya incense for myself and the pictured violet tea light holder for my wife before we settled into the Soup Dragon Cafe. Plenty of delicious vegan and vegetarian options on the menu and the mushroom pate and toast was particularly tasty. The whole place has a very chilled vibe about it and whether you’re healing, eating or shopping I’d recommend a visit

Hidden Gem someone wrote and no truer words were said. Came across this when I was on holiday in the area, now travel regularily from Glasgow for a massage with Carol Ann, I have had many massages in my time but never as good as this, I feel each time as if I would like the 90 minutes to start all over again, too good for 60 minutes!! Just discovered they do other beauty treatments too, so will have to make a day of it next time. The shop is so inviting, each time I find something, my Christmas box is bulging with interesting pressies for family and friends. The food is great, full of flavour, lots of varity, but theres more, books for a £1, fairy walk, Animal sanctury, a childs day play center in the woods, events monthly, cant praise the place enough, simply love it

Came across this place having driven past on a previous visit to the area. A delightful treat, very welcoming. I think we ordered with our hunger, not realising the generous portions. The food was delicious. Very dog friendly as we sat in the courtyard. Then went for a walk in the grounds which was very interesting. Left with a warm glow.

Great food, service and a wonderful atmosphere. Child friendly too. A lovely woods walk next to the cafe. It’s a new favourite for us.

My therapist was Carol Ann. Words cannot describe the treatment she gave me. A week later and I’m still walking on air. All my aches, pains and restricted movements have gone. The other 3 members in my party all agreed it was the best treatment they’ve ever had. A quirky place. Great home cooked food that catered for all allergies and beliefs. Lovely staff. Generous with their time, explanations and treatments. Seriously considering a return trip for several days of treatments despite the distance from Liverpool. Wonderful!

Just home after having the most wonderful Indian Head Massage. My therapist, Emma is just wonderful. Instantly made me feel as ease and sorted my painful shoulders/neck/head with a lovely massage. She's clearly well trained/experienced as she talked me through what she was doing and why. I will be booking my next visit shortly but next time I'm staying for cake and coffee as the coffee shop looks very inviting. Lovely gift shop too. Looks like a great place for kids as there's a woodland walk and a tyre swing.

This is a brilliant place to unwind and relax and enjoy a bite to eat too with the extra room now even more to enjoy something to eat

We went for breakfast at this hidden gem and ending up asking for them to make our lunch as a takeaway on our long journey home (they said yes, did I mention that 'they' are lovely?). We had homemade vegan sausages which even the meat eaters at the next table were ordering (there's meat on the too folks, but honestly, try the vegan sausages!), vegan haggis, and our wee one had homemade toasted bread with jam, so good.After too much coffee, we left looking forward to our lunch stop: homemade falafel and hummus, roasted veg, purple slaw and onion seed bread (also homemade, natch). And the cakes! Oh my....very good. Lovely surprise to find that the boxes and cutlery were all biodegradable and came in a cardboard box. So totally yummy and guilt free.Now we have to go back to Loch Lomond so we can visit Tig na N'og again.

My daughter book me a massage as a treat

Got married here, we had a lovely hand fasting service and reception afterwards, which was easily accommodated and they made our cake. Great pictures of the Scottish country side. Best trip ever!!

As well as the Soup Dragon cafe at Tir na nOg, there is an interesting shop, treatment rooms and a lovely walk in the grounds. We both had the soup and sandwich combo in the cafe - choice of two soups and an interesting selection of sandwich fillings. The salad and coleslaw that came with the sandwich as a side was particularly good. A lot of the food on the menu is vegetarian (including vegan and gluten free options) but the were some meat dishes too. The cakes looked good as well but sadly we didn't leave enough room!

This is a gem for those interested in true holistic therapies done professionally and with care. My reflexology was amazing and worked wonders in balancing my systems. They also have a great collection of stones and crystals.

I just love the concept and the place itself. Beautiful and charming character, positive energy, good therapies, beautiful shop and warming relaxed cafe. What else can you ask for?

A good place to stop for lunch with many homemade produce chutneys breads cakes etc, we had lovey food in a atmospheric place and it was nice to brouse round the shop with its many delights.

Set in the grounds of Balfunning House and based in the old stables. A restaurant is present with a shop and a holistic treatment centre. A wood land walk takes you through the grounds and an art trail is part of the walk. Very popular restaurant, a well stocked shop and a well built woodland walk with an excellent art trail.

I popped in under a recommendation when looking for witchy/spiritual things in the area and what a delight. Such a wonderful little place in such an interesting building. I was a little under the weather so booked myself in for a massage with Carol-Ann. The massage was wonderful and really catered to my needs. I really enjoyed my visit and would definitely come back.

Had been originally looking for McMillans kitchen? Which was listed in trip advisor, however this is now based in that premises, the original owners I am informed of McMillan kitchen now own the benview cafe. However the Tir na Nog was a pleasant surprise. Decor tends to be on the rustic/holistic/hippyish style, which is actually very relaxing. The cafe is quite small, however in the rare good weather in Scotland there is a courtyard area with some additional tables.

We visited Tir Na Nog for lunch at the Soup Dragon.

I only had a coffee there yesterday but have eaten lunch before. Always a high standard in a beautiful setting!

The soup dragon is a great wee place for a bite to eat after a message food is good quality and service is good once you ring the bell. Enjoyed tho and very quaint.

Quirky style, lovely varied menu, friendly staff. Food was great, service was slow - kitchen problems - but a 20% discount was offered without asking. Would definitely visit again

A very chilled out place! From the minute I arrived I felt a sense of calmness looking out on the woodland walk where the meditation teepee takes centre spot surrounded by carved wooden toadstools and wind chimes.

Another great time here in the Soup Dragon cafe quality food after a incredible massage that curls your toes. Always great to come back to.

I have been here twice now for massages. Not the cheapest out there but by far the most amazing wee place.

The meal itself was very good, but the glasses were dirty. I asked for said glasses to be replaced and, after a lengthy wait they arrived and proved no better than the first pair. I again asked for clean glasses and, after another lengthy wait ,the waitress brought a pair of freshly washed dripping wet ones; which were wearily accepted. Whilst we ate our meal I noticed the cake display cabinet,also made of glass, was smeared and dirty looking.These things should be pristine in an eating establishment.

Tucked away and a little bohemian, The Soup Dragon is comfortable, friendly and generous. Fabulous coffee, cakes and scones to die for and lovely, innovative lunch dishes.

Conseguimos una oferta en itison para tratamiento y té con crema de 75 minutos para dos personas. Masaje sueco y tratamientos faciales eran increíbles. El personal es muy amable y nos hizo sentir muy bienvenidos y cómodos. Fuimos a la cafetería después de una sopa de dragón tenía un estupendo té delicioso helado y también recomiendo la sopa. Personal de cafetería también muy amable y servicial.

Un excelente tratamiento facial de Carol Anne en una sala de terapia muy relajante, muy relajante hizo nuevos productos en el sitio. Un encantador almuerzo de sopa y pan seguido de té y pasteles. Definitivamente volveré de nuevo.

Este lugar es realmente llama la sopa de dragón. He estado aquí dos veces ambos lados de Navidad y fue muy buena calidad, de estilo moderno y sirve sándwiches, etc) (masa fermentada, ensaladas y sopas. Hay también una amplia variedad de tartas y dulces. Tranquilo, el personal es amable.

Had a nice lunch here on our way to Drymen. Loved the "magical" atmosphere and friendly service. Well worth a visit if you enjoy nature and peaceful surroundings. Loved the shop where you can buy lots of unusual gifts and the lovely carpet of snowdrops in the driveway reminding us that Spring was not faraway.

If you have plenty of time to sit and chill to enjoy home made soup, sandwiches, pastas and cake then this is just the place. If you are in a hurry then come back when you have time. This is a place not to be rushed.

Visited from Drymen where we struggling to find places catering to our veggie gluten free and milk free tastes. We lucked out with Soupdragon. There's no music which I loved. The place is kid friendly and cosy. There's loads of books as if they are trying to encourage us to stay longer. They needn't have bothered- the tasty food, coffees and cakes ensured that! A choice of soups and sandwiches with home made ingredients, fresh salad and herbs will leave you satisfied and the portions are great too. Finally the staff are very friendly and attentive. Nothing to complain about at all.

My husband and I had a very pleasant afternoon having aroma therapy massages and then lovely afternoon tea courtesy of gift voucher. The two therapists Clair and Glynis were so nice and calming.The treatments were both so pleasant and relaxing.The afternoon tea in The Soupdragon cafe was wonderful so many sandwiches cakes scones and cream with jam.We were even given a little box with the unbeaten cakes home with us .A visit to the charming little shop which is magical.Will highly recommend to all who will listen.

Came across this place by just driving past and making a very quick decision to visit.. we weren't disappointed ... Delicious homemade soup and the best ever carrot cake served by a pleasant chap who provided us with free water. We will return to an amazing peaceful spot

This place is a little bit of magic...it's in the countryside so you can go for a nice walk...then you can visit the healing space where they offer loads of alternative therapies. Then you can pop into thee colourful shop ( one selling decorations, gifts, tarot cards ect. and the other selling hand made products and musical instruments). You have to go to the restaurant....such a cosy, warm and welcoming place offering vegan and vegetarian food ( super tasty and good value for money..really hard to find in Scotland). The staff were all really nice, telling us about the products they make, and making us feel at ease. Loved this place, the people and what they do...definitely worth a visit..kids and pet friendly too.

Under new management and Marco in the kitchen. Fab menu, fab food, front of house a bit ditzy but well worth a visit!!!

A great place for an 'out of the ordinary' dining and shopping experience.The menu is changing this week to winter choices, so we're going back next week.The shop is fascinating, not the run of the mill tourist goods. I think we'll be regulars.

Visited recently thatnks to a discount voucher and I will be back. Had a full body aroma massage followed by tea and scone. Not the fanciest of treatment rooms however therapist was just lovely and had a relaxing hour. Cafe was kept going considering it is off the main road. The gift shop has some lovely items and what made my visit just perfect was being able to pet the dogs( behind the counter).

had a lovely hot stone massage and had a voucher for soup and bread, homemade and delicious. previously had reiki but tried something different and was not disappointed. Lovely gift shop at reasonable prices and a lovely forest walk to finish the afternoon off.

Had booked for a treatment for a friends birthday. We had some lunch first was lovely. The staff are all very friendly and welcoming. Would recommend for anyone looking for a relaxing day.

Turn off the main road and enter an oasis of calm and loveliness. Today I had the hot stone massage - best I've ever had and amazing pain relief. Thank you Phyllis. The cafe food is great as is the service. Love the shops. Always have a look at the second hand book shelves in the courtyard. Enjoyed the shorter version of the woodland walk. Always leave revived and restored. Thank you Oona.

Very approachable staff interesting stuff and the characters chimes were amazing. All kinds of activities going on in the grounds. Good for kids good for old hippies

From the main road this place looks like nothing. But a short drive down the track you are transported into another world. Never had any treatment here, but the little shop with all its magical things. Plus the tearoom with the little fairy's in the kitchen is so relaxing. I recommend that if you are in the area its worth making that turn off the road, O as the sign say did I mention the CAKE.

We visited for a coffee and a slice of cake. The coffee was nice, but the cake was awesome! The location and surrounding area was also lovely and relaxing. We are just glad we were staying near by, otherwise we would never have known it was there - it's rather hidden away in the woods.Well worth a visit on your way past and the little shops are lovely too.

My sister and I got a 75 Minute treatment voucher each from my son for our Christmas and used it on 16th February and it was worth the wait. I chose the Hot Stones Massage which I have had on previous occasions at other venues but I have to say this massage was the best I have ever had. I don't think there was a joint or muscle left untreated and my sister, who for the first time chose the Hot Bamboo Massage said the same thing. Included in our voucher was the treatment and a cream tea or soup. I had the scone which was freshly baked and delicious and my sister chose the homemade soup which she said was delicious too. The shop was lovely and everyone we came in contact with were very friendly and helpful. I would highly recommend Tir Na Nog to anyone looking for a relaxing massage or even just a look in the shop or cup of coffee in the cafe. Will definitely be back soon.

My mum and I both had a massage and lunch here last week and we had a lovely day. The massages were relaxing and the soup we had for lunch warmed us right up. I'm looking forward to going back!

This is my favourite out of the way places where you can feel relaxed and to unwind. Cafe is a wee gem of home cooked food ......Great find.

Tir nan Og is a fantastic place, great for dining or coffee. They have a wonderful holistic gift shop and a nice woodland walk. The food is healthy and they have good vegetarian dishes.

Enjoyed a lovely lunch here with my wife. The cafe is part of an eclectic courtyard featuring craft shops and a holistic centre. The cafe food is predominantly veggie (ideal for us) and all very tasty. We were warmly welcomed well looked after. All in all good service and good value.

We had heard a few people speak about this place, and since moving here, I've driven past it about 5,000 times... Decided that since I'd finished work early, it would be a perfect chance to take my wife and see what all the fuss was about.We can now safely say that we both see why everyone recommends it! Lunch was amazing, the coffee was superb, and the cakes were out of this world. All of this, coupled with the randomness and calmness of the area, the little shops, and the friendliest staff we've ever encountered, we really can't wait to go back!!

We called on a Saturday and the place was hosting a wedding but were still serving drinks and cakes. It's been a while but we have visited this lovely place before and had great food. I'm glad to say the decor and café itself have improved. The capaccino was wonderful. The cakes looked awesome and we opted for the malteser cake. We were served the biggest slice of cake I've had for ages. It was huge and oh so chocolaty.The shop is nice and if you like scented candles there is a wide variety to sniff your way through.A highly recommend cafe.....We will be back!

Visited here on our way to Loch Lomond and were very impressed with the range of veggie food. We ordered the soup, sweet potato and cumin, and sandwich, egg mayo & cress, both of which were delicious. The lady who served us was very accomodating, even served our collie dog with his sausage!An excellent place, calm with a good vibe.Would highly recommend a visit.

took my daughter here for her 30th birthday treat and it was the most amazing place full of magical and unusual items. they also do things like fire walking, meditation classes etc . we had lunch in the wee cafe they have there and it was lovely as well. If you are looking for really unusual gifts or a place for a nice day out then highly recommend this unusual place.

Lots of small businesses who offer a friendly and holistic care within beautiful surroundings where you can walk your dog as well.

I love this friendly little restaurant/cafe. I always have the homemade soup which is different every time and comes with homemade scones - yummy! They have lovely deserts too and a large selection of herbal teas which I adore. My favourite thing about the place is that they don't rush you out the door. Even when they're busy you are never rushed and can spend many an hour chatting with your friends - just like I do. And don't forget to pop into the aromatherapy shop or magic shop which are lovely.

Popped in to take a coffee and have some cake as the sign on the road said, We were delighted with the result. Good service and nice coffee served in pleasant surroundings , modern mugs with cute saucers. There was a lot of us but this did not phase the lady serving us, orders taken, coffee/tea served shortly thereafter and followed up with some yummy cake and chocolate thingies just greatWe will definitely go back! You need to try this not far out of Drymen and well signposted. Set back slightly off the road in lovely country surroundings

absolutely magical place. the park is beautiful, with a smile fairies, and beautiful trees. definitely visit this magical place again. small cafe and boutique are formed it even more charming.

Visited Tir na nOg many times over the years but this is the first time I have been back since they had done the shop and cafe up.Just as I remember it but more amazing. The food would top that of a five star restaurant, in my humble opinion. The nachos were amazing and I opted for the small portion which was just enough, lovely and very tasty. The paninni was amazing as well and my friend had a wrap which she loved. I had the strawberry meringue dessert and friend had the crispy cake which she could not finish but said it was well delicious. So if you are going for a visit the food is out of this world and the staff are lovely and friendly.I had set myself a limit to spend in the shop but went well over it as there was so many nice things to buy. From scented candles to lovely little angels there is something for everyone to purchase and they accept cash or credit and debit cards. The shop is set out differently now but gives you more space to walk around. If you had someone in a wheelchair it may be a bit more difficult to get them into the shop but phone ahead and see if they can accommodate. All in all a lovely drive through some of the most wonderful countryside and in about an hour from Glasgow takes you to a little bit of heaven.

visited this place today with my sister and some friends. WOW. What a calm, peaceful wee place. The food is all home baked, healthy and plentiful. It was a little wet and dreary today so I opted for the tomato and basil soup with a home made cheese/ herb scone . Yum. Soup as piping hot, very very tasty and the scone was huge and delicious. My companions had the veggie burgers which they raved about and I must admit did look very appetising. Audrey had the panini which she assured me was fantastic. There were cakes and ice cream but sadly we were too full. Next time for sure. The staff were excellent . Very welcoming and friendly and happy to recommend something for everyone which did not disappoint. The atmosphere was tranquil and you had the distinct impression you could sit there all day if you wanted to.High standard of cleanliness . Food amazing and healthy.. yay !! Prices definitely value for money. In addition to the great food lots if interesting things to do and great wee shop and loads of walks Will be back again :)

I first stumbled upon this wee place just after it had opened and just adored it .It is an amazingly calm retreat, beautiful grounds a lovely wee shop selling candles and crystals and all things magical .The cafe is lovely, home made healthy sandwiches,scones and soups and cakes not a chip in sight !The staff are amazing Oonagh is a delight and i have been for a few therapy sessions with her which have left me so relaxed i could have floated home .I love this place

I visited Tir na Nog after several months of wanting to and wasn't disappointed. It's an amazing place with a beautiful energy about it. They run workshops, you can have treatments, there is a great shop on site with the most unique gifts, lovely grounds to explore - brilliant for my children - and a fab boutique restaurant. They serve the most incredible juices made from great ingredients, homemade cakes that are fab and great lunchtime meals. It has a really great atmosphere and you feel so at home. Well worth a visit, perfectly situated for days out to loch lomond. Wish I lived closer to it !

I have visited Tir na Nog a number of times and have already bought vouchers for two return visits! And that involves a journey from Oban to Drymen each time !! I love the special nature of this little haven. The therapists are great....a wide variety of treatments available at reasonable prices. The restaurant is lovely...I have had lunches and afternoon teas here and enjoyed every mouthful. The shop is gorgeous ( I am a 'fairy person' !) and I have to control myself not to spend a fortune there. Yes it is out of the way, but that's part of the charm of the place. Everyone is so friendly and welcoming. I look forward to my next return visit booked for May, a reflexology session and lunch!!

this place has everything. beautiful gift shop, friendly helpful welcome lovely workshop space,Oonagh and lovely wee cafe

We visited on a friend's recommendation for a late lunch one dreary afternoon, and were not disappointed. My partner had a panini, I had soup and a sandwich, and everything was very fresh, wholesome, and delicious. It's a tad expensive, but you do get big portions and the food appears to be top quality. Slightly hidden off the beaten track, it's well worth popping in here for some lunch or a pot of tea (of which they have many varieties) and some cakes! There's a little gift shop next door, a teepee and a woodland walk on the doorstep (although given the weather we didn't venture out, so I can't comment on this!). So glad we discovered this place!
