Westerton Arms in Stirling

This place has had a massive drop in quality due to a change of ownership

First time visiting this very nice place, very good food , friendly staff and a prompt service! I recommend a visit for food because it was very good

Excellent pub and pub food venue, they do great deals during the week as well on food. Sunday roasts are very good here.

Nice local pub with great company!

5 of us had a meal there last night. Food was absolutely delicious and the service was perfect. Banter with Ashlene was too funny! Thoroughly recommend this place 🥰

Lovely cosy atmosphere, nice food and friendly service.

A lovely experience, staff were really lovely, happy to recommend dishes. Service was spot on and food was delicious.

Such a nice cozy pub and eatery The food was great thxs 🥰

Very generous portions, my Steak and ale pie 🥧 was very good, but the carbonara dish was a little too salty. Apart from the young waitress, the staff was not the most cheerful. The place is nice

Food was extremely salty to extent that I fell sick..Would not give rating as value for money

Excellent pub restaurant with a comfortable atmosphere. Both of us enjoyed different dishes, each prepared with attention to quality. We were lunch hungry, and said so, but even though our choices were 'longest to cook' we didn't notice the wait. (Teriyaki Salmon and Beef Shin). Staff were attentive and service was friendly. We would eat there again.

We are food in the pub area, dogs are permitted and treated well! Staff were friendly and professional. Food was Divine!

Good Food and Service at the right price

Food lovely, service first class, and wonderful obliging staff. Helpings of the food are most ample, lovely log fire to heat you all up. Enjoy !!

Excellent meal good service no problem with gluten free meal. Very busy a bit noisy

Good selection, interesting dishes, large portions, top quality of products i have seen. And very tasty too👍Full marks from us here. And many thanks to the team.

So delighted to see Aishleen working last night......she is so professional whilst managing to chat to everyone.....but always aware of what's going on. My meal was delicious as was my friends. ( chinese style lemon chicken and steak and ale pie) Beautiful presentation. Aishleen has been working in the village for 25 plus years and always asks after my 2 sons....she has watched them grow up. She is a real asset to the Westerton and everyone loves her ❤️

Lovely place Staff well presented and friendly Food excellent and reasonable priced

Night out for our First Friday club , enjoyable experience and very good service. Thankyou

Great food and good size portions, lovely establishments and dogs allowed which is a bonus !

Good food, nice atmosphere service with a smile 😃

Excellent welcome, children are welcome. The dishes are very good and generous. The cheesecake was killer….

Food not great got mac and cheese and it was gritty not nice

Lovely lunch great service food was delicious

Very good food, friendly and attentive service. Value for money, excellent. Impeccable cleaning. Super recommended.

Went to dine and have been once before. This time found the food not so good. I had Salmon with Teriyaki sauce but the fish far too dry maybe over cooked. I could not eat all of my meal. Otherwise the venue and staff were perfect.

A great place for lunch, the menu has a good variety of dishes. The service was good and the staff were friendly. I will be returning soon .

Visited here on way back from walkies, good beer and good food. We got the big round table next door to the bay windows which was excellent for people watching and seeing all the classic cars going past from the rally.

Today we went for breakfast not si good anymore and the roses on the table where all dead. Something has changed.

One of the tastiest Steak pie's I've ever had.

I want to thank Ashlene and all the wonderful staff for an amazing night on Saturday 18th. 32 people got together family and friends to celebrate the life of a very important person to us and the staff of the Westerton Arms made it happen. There was much love and laughter in the function room upstairs that easily accommodated us, the food and the service was fantastic and it's very likely to happen again next year if they'll have us, so once again to the Westerton Team thankyou all so much. Love from Rory's Family & Friends xx

Great cafe for breakfast and brunch. Staff always happy to help and accommodate all requests. Free WiFi and huge free car park space adding on the value. Try for yourself and won’t be disappointed

I've been here a couple of times. Since it is under new management it has been servicing fabulous good food. Think they are struggling with service staff and systems. The outside beer garden is fantastic but really should have service, as they would be able to sell more food and drinks. Nice when the sun is out too. We had the lobster ravioli with sapphire on top. It was tasty and good size. We also had the scallop thermodor, which was delicious. Should he served with bread. Highly recommend both.

Place was quite busy when we arrived (me and a couple of friends), but service was quick and friendly, the food was great, so was the lager. They got one of our sides wrong, but apologized and immediately came back with two extra, on the house. Great atmosphere as well, would come again.

My partner had an amazing chicken dish, i had the carbanara. Unfortunately the carbanara comes in about 100mls of olive oil. It might be how it should be, but i found it to oilly, and it looked like the sauce had split. Won't eat there again, but nice pb to drink in. Shame re food, as staff are lovely

Amazing food, one of the best meals we have had eating out. Good size portions and staff were all lovely. Definitely will be returning.

Absolutely amazing place, food, atmosphere, service!!!! And omg, the plates , I want to buy these plates but they are so expensive. It's 100% worth to visit !!!!!Compliment to lobster ravioli from me and my husband!!!

As an occasional visitor to the Westerton Arms in Bridge of Allan, I have always been impressed by the quality of the food and the warm hospitality of the staff. However, my most recent visit for Easter lunch took my experience to a whole new level. Our party of 13 (including 2 children under 6) arrived at the pub to a very warm welcome from the hostess, Aishleen, who immediately made us feel at home. She efficiently showed us to our cozy table in the dining room, ensuring we were comfortable and had everything we needed. The Easter menu was simply mouthwatering, featuring classic roast dishes that showcased the kitchen's exceptional skills. I opted for the roast beef, which was cooked to perfection - tender, juicy, and bursting with flavor. My dining companions raved about the equally delicious roast chicken, with its crispy skin and rich, succulent meat. The accompaniments were equally as impressive, with fluffy Yorkshire puddings, crispy roasted potatoes, and a selection of fresh seasonal vegetables that were expertly prepared. I was particularly impressed by the homemade gravy, which had a depth of flavor that elevated the entire meal. After our hearty main courses, we couldn't resist indulging in the tempting dessert menu. The Biscoff cheesecake delicious - creamy and decadent, with a crunchy Biscoff biscuit base that provided a wonderful contrast in texture. The tablet sundae was another highlight, with layers of creamy ice cream, crumbled tablet that had us scraping the dish clean. Throughout our lengthy lunch, the Westerton Arms' staff, led by the ever-attentive Aishleen, provided impeccable service. They were attentive to our every need, promptly refilling drinks, checking on our satisfaction, and ensuring our party of 13 was well taken care of. It's clear that the team at the Westerton Arms takes great pride in their work, and it shows in the quality of the food and the warmth of the hospitality. This Easter celebration was a feast for the senses, and I left with a deep appreciation for the exceptional dining experience that the Westerton Arms consistently delivers. Whether you're looking for a cozy pub lunch, a special occasion celebration, or a traditional Scottish feast, the Westerton Arms is a must-visit destination. I can't wait to return and sample more of their delectable offerings.

Took a while to bring the drinks and the food had the nachos they were really nice had to take them home

Went for drinks and dinner with my sister. Great service and food was delicious. Good selection of beers in the bar. Highly recommend.

Didn’t plan to have lunch, rather dropping by for a drink but very glad we did. We were due to eat at another restaurant but due to confusion around taking our dog with us we had to cancel. Paul and team could not have been more welcoming. The food was spot on. My wife had the Seafood Linguine and I had the Rigatoni with Italian Sausage. For Pudding we both had Cheesecake. All of it was perfect. Washed down with a good bottle of Montepulciano. Very good staff, attentive to both us and the dog and with a very solid product . The atmosphere was also great. Would definitely recommend and we’ll be back.

Great food, great service and nice drinks. Pauline and staff made us feel very welcome and we will definitely be visiting again.

Fantastic meal for mothers day. Can highly recommend the chicken and haggis Wellington

Stop for lunch today with my wife the food and staff were excellent

Was my sons 21st Birthday, just a small group of family and friends at The Westerton after being let down by another restaurant.. I’m glad they cancelled. We couldn’t fault the staff, service and food. The staff were super helpful, helping with balloons, banners and serviettes for the birthday boy..took his cake and presented to him with the candles and flares.. Pauline was who I spoke with on booking and she was there in the night, arranged everything and looked after us all so well. Food was amazing, tasted so fresh, and served all of us together with really warm tasty meals. Lovely ambience, clean and immaculate. If you are in BoA.. you must go to The Westerton Arms.. you will not be disappointed 😊👍 Catrina Mootie

The new owners have nailed it! The food was fabulous, I would go as far as saying best food I have had locally in years. I had the black pudding scotch egg, followed by monkfish scampi #wow My daughter had the mussels to start which were fantastic .. atmosphere, service and food quality was second to none. Will definitely be back xx

Fantastic service and everyone is friendly. Great coffee from Henry’s coffee company

Great food and service. Meal with friends and family and first time we have eaten here in years. Good choice was great and none of us were disappointed with the quality of the food. The service was exceptional with all the waiting staff attentive and super friendly. Definitely be back

Lovely warm welcome from the staff for ourselves and our 2 dogs. Food was very good and well served.

Great Burgers....Food was Fresh and well prepared..

Fantastic place to eat. The service was excellent. Our dinners were lovely and hot and tasted great. Would recommend the steak and ale pie, chicken pie, and the bacon burger. Will definitely be back.

Great Sunday roast for me and my wife, very tasty with great customer service. Have eaten here numerous times and always enjoyed the food.

A slightly mixed bag, the service and atmosphere was great, just a couple of issues with the food, but admit it might just come down to personal taste. Ordered the Chicken Sunday roast everything was lovely, chicken lovely and juicy except the gravy was far too salty and unfortunately was poured over all the food, which i wouldn't mind if it wasn't too salty. Ordered the cheesecake of that day and it was the weirdest cheesecake I've ever eaten. It felt far more savory than sweet. The base was stodgy and the topping had the texture and taste of pure Philadelphia cheese, not whipped light & creamy. Felt as though we should have had some crackers instead, to spread the cheese on. I would go back and try some other dishes just to check if it was just bad food choices on my part.

The Westerton Arm is situated directly in the middle of the Bridge of Allan. A good location and includes parking directly behind the venue, something that is in short supply in Bridge of Allan. The venue is separated into two key bits for dining / hospitality, the main restaurant and then a pub directly across. I have not visited the pub so will only be talking about my experience of the restaurant. The restaurant is a decent enough size, we were a family of 6 and a pram and still plenty of space around us, it was pretty busy when we were in. Its quite a cosy atmosphere with old style pub like decor, not weather, still looks new and clean! Now conscious this may seem to good to be true but the full end to end was fantastic, when we walked in the service was great, we had a table booked to seated within a minute of entering the door where a drinks order was taken. The menu has a lot of choice so definitely something on there for everyone. The only thing to note is that they don't do their lunch sandwiches on a Sunday (Sad cause we returned and they were fantastic - Pulled pork one is ace). The timing of the food was ideal, enough that you aren't starving but also that you aren't sitting there thinking "this must have been microwaved", I had the Sriracha Chicken burger which was great and a number of us had the Sunday roast which I am also advised was a 10/10. Finally we had some desserts consisting of coffee and cake, I feel like a good coffee is often something that lets a place down, when you order a latte and its basically just a milky coffee as an example, not here. The coffee was honestly some of the best I have tasted in a while, good temperature and a decent size. It's not often you can walk away from a local restaurant and say you have nothing negative to say about it but Westerton Arms is definitely one of those places. Have since returned like I mentioned to sample those Sandwiches and again, another great dining experience from start to finish. Would definitely recommend for anyone visiting or passing through!

Cracking pint of Schiehallion. 🐭🍺😃

Brilliant lunch, soup and mussels... so tasty and will be back.... Russell and Moira ❤

Had a Hen get together for our daughter with family and friends in the new refurbished upstairs lounge … what an absolute treat ! Buffet food was home made ,delicious and presented beautifully! Aishleen was on hand for anything we needed and her attention to detail is second to none 🩷 Thankyou so much for making it a special day Team Westerton !

We all choose soup and sandwich combo. I had mushroom soup which was lovely and cajun chicken sandwich which wasn't the best , chicken was rubbery ,I also asked fir handcooked chips that were on the menu but i got frozen,also had coffee and cake which was nice . Staff member sitting in corner on his laptop with people coming and going to his table . We only came here as Allan Water Cafe and Nicks were closed. Don't think I would return. Staff not very engaging or friendly. We sat next to fire that soon went out , would have been nice for staff to keep the fire going on a cold January afternoon.

Visiting Stirling for my dad's 92nd birthday and came across the Westerton. Treated so well, amazing food and great service. Returning in a few days.!!!

Visited for the 1st time and I really enjoyed our evening the food was superb the staff were all very friendly and helpful will definitely visit again.

First time visit and was amazed at the wonderful food on offer. It was so hard to choose. Decided on the haggis and chicken wellington which was absolutely delicious. My husband had the special of the day which was lamb with black pudding mash and again it was cooked perfectly and was delicious. The service was exceptional. Looking forward to returning soon. Well done ❤️🙏

Went here for a family dinner and was a little disconcerted by the difference between the men's bar and the restaurant. My local sister hurried me through to the restaurant. Excellent food and beer with super service.

Food, service and atmosphere were all brilliant. Great meal, really positive experience

Food was delicious and good value for money.

Probably becoming my fav place to go to sit by a cosy fire and eat good food - and probably this is the home of the best cheesecake in the world!

Great food and service. Highly recommended! i will be back here again in the near future. Love every bit of it.

first time visiting in years, not impressed, burger was raw, nachos were microwaved and the cheese invisible, all clumped together in a bowl, fish and chips was nice though but i'd struggle to recommend you try it, the reviews are high though so perhaps the chef just had an off night

Good food, good service and friendly staff. 👌

Six of us old school friends met for drinks on a dreich Wednesday lunchtime and loved the experience. We were met by friendly staff and seated at a table beside the fire which was just so warm and cosy . Service was spot on . We will be back !

Beautiful afternoon lunch with family, what a lovely setting and great atmosphere. The staff were attentive, friendly and professional and our meals were very good. The Wellington was fantastic, but I had the food jealousy that comes when all the meals look delicious. Highly recommend.

Lovely traditional pub/ restaurant. We had a lovely lunch with family. The food was excellent as was the service. Recommended highly.

What a great day, we started at the panto and were booked into the Westerton arms for 6pm but went in for a few drinks first, atmosphere was fantastic such a buzz about the place, shout out Aishleen and Magda, and the young girl who was spot on, Food was great, piping hot 🔥 and delicious. Can't wait to go to their sister place on Hogmonay The Baw Bee ❤️❤️

The food was gorgeous, vegan haggis was amazing. The atmosphere was cozy for a very dismal rainy Saturday evening. The staff were very attentive and it was good value for money. The portions were very generous.

Gorgeous food, lovely atmosphere, attentive staff and very good value for money. We would definitely visit again and strongly recommend a visit. Easily accessible from Stirling.

So disappointed. I had been looking forward to brunch since the new management took over, but no way I can recommend this. We waited for some time just to get a menu. By the time the server picked up our coffee off the bar, it...

Our visit to the Westerton Arms was very pleasant, if a little on the expensive side at close to £30 for two sandwiches, a side of fries and two Cokes. The food was delicious, and the service was excellent.

4 of us visited here on a busy Saturday evening for an evening meal. Food: the food was brilliant. Wellington was incredible as were the burgers. Very well presented and decent size portions. Skinny fries with parmesan were a particular favourite! Service: great service, had to wait a bit of time between receiving the bill and paying but it was busy so understandable. Staff very attentive, friendly and welcoming. Credit to the venue. Atmosphere: really relaxed atmosphere, perfect for a casual evening meal. Parking: private parking is available but also plenty of free on street parking nearby. No issues at all. Price: for the quality and quantity of food and overall experience, I believe this place is priced appropriately. 4 people, 2 courses and 2 drinks each approximately £30 per head. Top highlight(s): skinny fries and sticky toffee pudding. Will definitely return and easily recommend to anyone in the area.

Great food deals ,staff very nice & attentive .

Dropped by when passing through the town. A very good experience as lunch was most pleasurable. Despite the pub being busy, I was welcomed and accommodated and received very good service coupled with a very good selection of food which was well presented and well...

Lovely food and great service. 3 of us had the Sunday roast, and one with the battered fish. Really enjoyed the food and the service was fantastic will be back again soon.

Great brunch there. Cosy and snug interior, Chill atmosphere. Good menu options, the food was delicious and the service was great. Felt really looked after. Not much more you can ask for! 👍

Westerton staff were exceptional when we had a big family gathering on Sunday. Went above and beyond

Pub under new management so worth giving it another try if you haven't been for a while. Food was good

Popped in for some refreshments great time there

Love the new look of the Westerton and we’ve been fairly recently since it changed hands and it was great. Visited again with family and the food was still pretty good but there were a few things that I don’t think are right. We ordered...

Service excellent but not inspired by the menu.

Very good pub food. Just had an excellent breakfast - all food freshly cooked and hearty.

Food and service is excellent. I highly recommend the pulled pork.

Firstly let me say the service was good, it was dinner time and the restaurant was busy. Not quite sure what the menu was trying to be - typical British pub food with a few continental curve balls thrown in ?......The Bang Bang chicken with...

My family and I were here as our half way stopping point on holiday. We have been here before and both visits the service was outstanding, the food was fantastic and the atmosphere was excellent. Food was cooked to a great standard presentation was fantastic and was an excellent experience.and the staff were wonderful.

My number one gripe with the Westerton is their IT is rubbish When transactions fail to go through it’s never them - with a clear level of distrust always -even when the customer a regular. Sort it. Stop blaming your customer base.

Quite extensive menu and reasonably priced given the good quality of the food. Very attentive and obliging waitress.

I enjoyed my dinner here but it was very busy which meant service was quite slow. We waited 25 minutes for drinks. Food arrived soon after. The food was actually very tasty and the prices reasonable. Portions are very good indeed.

Big shout out for Cally. Extremely helpful with a minor emergency .Thanks to the Boss too.

Staff good but drink prices too high eg 1 pint of lager and 1 large white wine was over £14. This is an Edinburgh city price. OK for the once in a while quick drink only.

Lovely place for Sunday Lunch - food was so good - especially the desserts! The food was a bit slow arriving, but the drinks arrived fairly quickly to keep us going 🙂

A wonderful find on a trip to Aberdeen when seeking a nice breakfast.

They have retained all the pub grub staples but have extended the menu to include some more off-the-wall options; Bang Bang chicken, Arancini balls with beetroot puree and much more. We were there for lunch and opted for the light bite menu, my sister took...

Service wasn’t the best, staff didn’t really know what was going on. Food wasn’t really worth the money. Disappointed as heard really good things about here

Good curry but fish and chips not as good as the Allanwater Cafe
