The best restaurants serving British food in Strathtay Perth & Kinross Central Scotland

Amazing as usual We live in the village, but travelled from Bristol after a trip away, and thought we would wait till we got home to Stanley to have a meal. As usual it didn’t disappoint, Julie and Kenny are amazing hosts, and the food was 5 star as we have come to expect. As the saying goes “There’s no place like home” thank you both

New owners now call this place Dunkeld’s. Looks nice and the cheeses in the deli to purchase and take away are reasonably priced. Everything else is way overpriced. They mill their own flour, cure their own bacon, bake bread and scones on the premises so they have zero buy in and transport costs for artisan produce from elsewhere. Why then is it £9.50 for some grilled bacon on a sandwich? £9.50 for a very small cappuccino and scone - when queried the response was that it wastes a lot of cream to make their own clotted cream! As much as the food is nice, it is twice the price of other places in town who also make their own bread. The coffee is served almost cold too. Also got moaned at when we sat at an empty table after standing waiting to be seated for several minutes with an abundance of staff ignoring us, then the staff commented to each other that ‘these people just sat down’. Rude beyond belief, there are no reservations so what is the issue with sitting at empty tables in a cafe where the staff clearly couldn’t be bothered to seat you there. The new owners have pitched this place at those who want to be able to say they pay a lot for a coffee and scone and think it makes them look good and for the unsuspecting tourist who will only be there once and then just get caught out by the massive prices. How will it get through its first winter when the tourists have gone! Also there is. I menu to view or prices until after you have sat down. We saw people get up and leave - perhaps they had just looked at the prices when given a menu!

Had a lovely dinner here. It’s an old fashioned style pub with friendly staff who made us welcome. Delicious food. Nothing too much trouble. Highly recommend. Booking required Friday and weekend.

We visited on Saturday 17th for Afternoon Tea, this was something we had done previously and had enjoyed it. This experience was very different, the savoury plate was very scant with little variety, the sweet plate was uninspiring as well. No one asked us if everything was okay, we were politely served but that’s where the service ended. Balathie House isn’t cheap for Afternoon Tea, it used to be sumptuous and good value, sadly it was far from it this time, we came away very disappointed and no one seemed to care.

What a difference a year makes!!! Poor service. Poor food Poor ladies restroom. Shame. Tearoom used to be so good. Shadow of its former self.

Lovely tea room very good service by the couple running it My wife says it's the best cheese scone she has ever tasted My clootie dumpling was delicious The tea comes with a 3 way timer for weak medium strong levels of tea Would highly recommend

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.

We received a discount to play as we were staying at Glen Glack nearby. The course is 9 holes and great for us novices players.

One starter was forgotten . Food ok bit on the pricey side . Ordered puddings but we gave up waiting paid the bill and left not the Sunday lunch we were expecting staff seemed to be under pressure for some reason I t was busy but they seemed to have enough staff

We went for Sunday lunch with friends & our dog. The setting is beautiful & parking is plentiful. The service, food, wine & ambience were great. Sadly, the Sunday roast option had sold out by 2.30 pm but the other dishes on the menu were excellent. I would thoroughly recommend a visit & we’ll certainly return.

Ordered a tea and a flat white which and was charged to use the disgusting port a loos totalled £6 ... coffee was espresso size!! Lids were dusty and dirty. How can this be justified!!

There is no doubting that the Taybank has considerable charm, the bar area exudes old-time allure and, coupled with the traditional music, is a great place for a pint. The restaurant, unfortunately, is another matter entirely. The food, apart from being grossly overpriced, proved to be largely inedible with two of our tables plates being returned to the kitchen uneaten and exchanged for cheese and biscuits. Enjoy a pint of Cheeky Chappie ale in the bar, by all means, but my advice would be to go elsewhere to eat. You have been warned!

Ordered vegan food and found what seemed like animal part in it. They insisted it was part of a mushroom which it clearly wasn’t. This made my wife feel sick and therefore couldn’t accept the offer of another meal. Offers of drinks etc weren’t acceptable as this had ruined our evening. I had to argue for any reduction in the bill and was threatened with the police if I didn’t pay. Appalling customer service.

Excellent prices!! and good choice of family food. Mushroom soup delicious. Haddock lovely all way through. Efficient service and lovely surroundings. Will be back again when back down. Thank you.
