The best restaurants in Central Scotland

We met friends for brunch there this weekend. The cafe is very welcoming and the staff extremely friendly. The menu/specials sounded so exciting that we ordered 5 dishes between 4 of us - Brisket chilli with cauliflower rice, Prawn with avocado on a milk bun, and Huevos Rancheros. All of the dishes were absolutely fantastic and unusual. The coffee is also extremely good. We will definitely be back (and will no doubt become regulars!)

So accommodating. Wonderful staff. Food perfect. Can't speak highly enough of the restaurant. The chicken with peppercorn sauce and the chicken with Diane sauce were so tasty.

We came across Robin's Nest by chance and were greeted in a warm friendly manner. I am on a Dairy Free Diet and the menu catered for all my needs. When we ordered coffee we were given an alternative choice of milks. The cakes were home made and delicious. I would highly. recommend this tea room

Had one of the best meals ever in this fantastic refurbished restaurant. Tide and Thyme have always produced excellent food but the new styling is truly remarkable. Everything just spot on. Our meals were all perfect, zucchini fritters, scallops, lamb, sea bass, seafood linguine, everything was beautifully presented, great portions and tasted sublime. Thank you for a wonderful evening. Good luck....not that you will need it....!

Fantastic evening of food and beer with great service on our last night on Tiree at Ceabhar - A great discovery and will definitely be back

What an amazing bakery! Nice to finally have a proper bakery with freshly made products. There is a large selection of sweet and savoury goodies and it was hard to pick which one! The chocolate eclairs are giant and taste amazing! Everything was fresh and tasty and will definitely be back to try something else! Staff were also super friendly and made you feel welcome.

Best place I have ever been in my life I live locally and enjoy it for quic cheap and delicious meal 100/10 would recommend xx

Lovely experience. Contact was made after booking to check our food preferences. Email to remind us re booking and when to arrive. Met at door and made to feel very welcome. All food and drink courses explained. All staff were friendly. Dinning room open plan with kitchen so can watch food being prepared. Chef came out and chatted at end. Lovely lunch time experience, will definitely return.

Cant think of another word to say accept "FANTASTIC" what more do you want great cake - I don't know how they make them but they are delicious. The Earl Grey tea was perfect and piping hot. We took family who were on holiday in Perth with us and they enjoyed it so much that they went back again. I would recommend this Café to everyone the guys who run it are so cheery and welcoming.

Food was absolutely delicious, great menu options, amazing local seafood and a whole seperate Vegan menu was available for 1 member of our party that was Vegan, ate here 2 nights in a row and was very pleased with the food and the service both nights

What an amazing place, the owners Scott and Steph supported by Katie gave us an amazing experience from start to finish. We were invited into cosy and relaxed lounge area to take as much time as we liked before dinner with every drink you can imagine. We were blessed with an appearance of stags and deer outside that freely roam the estate. When we decided to move into the restaurant Steph the chefs cooking - wow !!!!!- every chosen and surprise course was incredible. We’ve eaten out a lot but nothing compared to the quality of the cooking here - it all worked so well. Their thoughtfulness and inclusivity when it came to my wife’s gluten free alternatives was the best we’ve experienced where every course, even some to nibbles had a gluten free option. Throughout the evening Katie and Scott were amazingly attentive, and Scott also gave his time to educate and allow us to try some of the amazing collection of whiskeys. Blown away by the whole experience and thank you so much. There’s a station just outside this remote restaurant and the thought of taking a sleeper up for a few days is one we’ve started looking into already.

We enjoyed a lovely breakfast at the café. Despite being busy, the service was impressively quick. The only downside is having to order at the counter, which slightly detracts from the experience.

We had dinner here for my husband’s 50th birthday. The restaurant setting is stunning. The Lalique connection means the decor features Lalique touches everywhere. The staff are welcoming and attentive. We had a 16 course tasting menu. The first few dishes are described as snacks - one bite delicacies to be washed down with an aperitif. We then had langoustine and a lobster “bisque it” as well as the most delicious loaf of bread. The main courses included a delightful fish dish and squab pigeon followed by a palate cleanser pre dessert and chocolate melt in the mouth dessert. Each course was a work of art and delicious. It is expensive but worth every penny,

The best meal I’ve ever eaten. Absolutely outstanding. We went here whilst on holiday to celebrate my partners birthday. We wanted a special meal and wow did we get it. The restaurant is beautiful and intimate and right in the heart of Oban so very easy to walk to. Sitting at the chefs table watching him cook and hearing about how he sourced ingredients and about the local area was lovely. The food was indescribable it was simply stunning. We are still talking about the venison and scallops a week later. If you want something a little bit different and special this is it. We will definitely be back.

A nice little cafe run by a couple of friendly guys.The selection of cakes was very good and the one I chose was delicious - obviously home baked.The location is towards the end of the shops but worth s visit
