The best restaurants serving British food in Central Scotland

We were staying just down the road in Tayinloan and saw this place as we passed by. We promised ourselves a visit and we have loved it. Great staff and great food very friendly guests in the restaurant and it’s dog friendly! The view is mesmerising we loved every bit of it! Thank you. We hope to return before we head south again!

A fantastic brunch today. I had been given an itison voucher for my birthday for 2 brunch dishes and either 2 hot drinks or non alcoholic wine. We opted for an Americano and a tea, fantastic big cups, and an apple juice for my son. Ordered the Gourie Goucho and the travelling Scotsman for eating and my son insisted on Mac cheese which the kitchen were very accommodating with, even at 10am! All food was delicious and you can tell the quality in the ingredients as well as the banter. A fantastic place, where you you wait for quality fresh food. Brilliant, quirky spot.

We went here for an impromptu lunch today. We both had fish and chips. I'm not a chip fan so asked for a jacket potato with butter and this was not a problem. The battered fish was the best we've tasted in recent times. Beautiful and sparkling fresh with gorgeous big flakes. The owner told us it had only been delivered at 12 noon and it showed. The jacket potato was delicious and so were the chips The tartare sauce was great and so were the mushy peas. Completely flawless. For 2 generous portions and 2 diet cokes it cost £26 and it was worth every penny. We'll be back

The location, the restaurant, the staff and the food are all excellent. My partner and I had a truly wonderful Sunday lunch and each dish (cheese souffle, John Dory and blueberry pana cotta) worthy of 10 out of 10. scores. My only concern is that the 25% increase in the price may deter future customers.

Very friendly local post office and shop with recent addition of a cafe. Good coffee. Had breakfast which was very good and filling. Dog friendly which is great after a walk.

Went in today as passing through staff were lovely ordered a turkey salad roll costing £4.45 got back to the car and it was shocking one thin slice of turkey loads of lettuce and onion. I know people have overheads but that’s just robbing people I was absolutely disgusted. Won’t be back!

We had to wait 45 minutes for starter, but when we asked about it they were excellent and got it straight away and all gave us all a free drink, steak night excellent value and I like that you can mix n match menus

The dinner was OK nothing like what you see on the website service was good but wee will not be back

Brilliant home baking, friendly staff, easily accessible, cosy shop and in a great location. Not too busy, but excellent service. Well priced and outside seating suitable for those with a four legged companion

We booked here for our anniversary on Friday evening & we were not disappointed. We were lucky enough to sit outside on the veranda until our booking time, The sun was shining & the views, breath taking. Both the food & service were excellent even though they were clearly short staffed. We will be returning!

Always great food here, husband and I often get their breakfast deal, which is tasty and great value. Friendly staff always with a smile

Great little cafe. Lovely local cafe with local food. Nice staff and very easy going. Breakfast rolls and seafood chowder were excellent. The museum well worth a visit.

Alarm bells started to ring when we arrived at the Lade Inn. It was lunchtime on a Friday, the roads were busy and there were lots of tourists around, yet the car park had only two cars in it. We received an extremely warm welcome, the staff were exceptionally nice and the surroundings were perfect. However, the food was very disappointing. We had a nice starter of haggis balls but the mains of scampi and chicken goujons were distinctly average. Chips were frozen, bland and tasteless. I always find a large serving of frozen peas quite lazy. No dressing on the salad. We expected better.

Awesome fish & chips! The best one I had so far in Scotland. Great atmosphere when you sit in front of the pub right next to the corniche. Staff was very friendly.

Comí el queso manchego más increíble, cebolla caramelizada y quiche de tomate seco hoy. Servido con cuscús de coliflor y ensalada lateral. ¡Fue tan sabroso! Gran servicio y pasteles como siempre.
