The best restaurants in Scotland

Lovely friendly service and good coffee. Even able to buy eggs here and had gluten free macarons 😊Nice to be acknowledged as we walked in!

I had a great experience from start to finish. The food was delicious, the prices were fair. The service was really good, they were all really efficient and kind. The atmosphere felt like a mixture of home and an airport lounge, in a good way.

Food, cakes and drinks with a Polish twist. It is nice to support a local independent business. Everything is made to a high standard. The couple who run it are lovely and they have created a nice ambiance. I took two cakes home they were so delicious.

Lovely open sandwhiches! we felt so welcome. The cakes looked amazing (although I didn’t have one as my sandwhich was more than enough) I will have to get one next time. Quality food

Ace. Keep up the good yummy work. Service fast, choice great and ices yay! Great to have this so close by. Maybe not so good for the waistline lol.

Buena comida, buen café y servicio rápido, es un pequeño lugar íntimo. El personal del bar era encantador, desayunó aquí durante nuestra estancia en Edimburgo

The BEST scones I've ever tasted, full of fruit. Great coffee and the breakfast is fantastic. Staff very pleasant, service quick. I could go on and on. Wonderful place to eat and very reasonably priced.

Christmas lunch with staff. Lovely Christmas meal and very attentive and welcoming staff. Top marks for hospitality and food. Thank you.

Bonnie wee cafe based in Stirling city centre with cosy decor, homely feel and Wifi. Service was quick, friendly and cheerful ! Only popped in for takeaway coffee and cakes today (Bourbon Brownie and Cinnamon Bun) for the hike up Ben Mieke. But I will definitely be back for brunch and pancakes another day (because I saw someone eating the banana pancake stack and it looked incredible!) Both cakes were absolutely delicious; the cinnamon bun was particularly tasty! And trust me as a coffee snob, I can definitely approve the divine Oat Latte ! Worth the visit and will definitely return again for more sweet treats and coffee in future.

Excellent take away, food fresh and very tasty, staff very friendly and helpful, kebabs top notch, will definitely be back.

Happy faces all round as this cafe served snacks, cakes and drinks to a satisfied mix of customers. Saturday lunchtime crowd said everything and my order was spot on for what I needed. Highly recommended.

My mum and I recently decided to try out this cafe for lunch and we were very impressed with the tapas/small plate dishes, and with the cake. The food was fresh and delicious. Today I went back with my baby and found it to be a lovely cafe to breastfeed in as well - there is a small family area at the back which is lamp lit and affords some privacy. The staff are very friendly, and were particularly good when I was flustered with a hungry baby today. This is just what Stirling was needing - my new favourite cafe!

La primera vez que he estado en este café. Tienes grandes porciones casi demasiado para mí. Volveré. La comida y el servicio era de 5 * y un buen ambiente tranquilo 👍

Loved this place! Came across it after a visit to Culross Palace. There were a couple of cafés which were closer but they were either a bit busier/noisier or welcomed dogs, which frankly puts me off. So glad we found Rankin's Café! Such a lovely, friendly, sunny place with a warm welcome and superb food. I had the soup of the day (Scotch broth) with the most delicious bread. A thoroughly enjoyable lunch. Would definitely recommend!

Agree with the other reviews. This is an unlikely place to find at the end of the world. We felt welcomed and in the main enjoyed our stay. The only downside was the cost for the 2 of us. £200 for a snack, breakfast, plate of curry and a bunkhouse bed with no shower and a outside toilet seemed breathtaking expensive. To put this into perspective, we go to a nice hotel each year for a winter break, that's more than we pay per day at the hotel with vastly more civilized amenities. I do understand there are logistics involved at Cape wrath. However for an 'ordinary' local Scottish person I'd be looking to stay at sandwood bay and make a lunch trip to the cafe as I simply can't justify the cost/value. However, it is altogether improbably situated and a must experience if you are doing a long walk. Just be prepae your expectations.
