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

Booked a table for two people, turned out was a very small table at a door opening onto the road , steady flow of customers meant continual icy blasts. Waited approximately 20 mins for the order to be taken and the a further 25 mins before the food arrived. Steak pie with chips and veg was very good , served on very large plates meaning no face to face dining. Decided not to have dessert due to the wait time, the draughtiness, the dog barking and the baby crying ( bad day when the baby was taken out and the dog stayed ) as well as a two hour limit on the table. Payment was at the bar achievable after ploughing through the masses. Seemed to be only 2 staff serving . Overall really nice food at a fair price served in unfortunately a very noisy environment with ridiculous wait times. Don’t understand this dogs being allowed in food establishments fad, leave them at home where they’re not getting trampled on and give the rest us a break from barking and all other things that go with them.

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.

Stopped here for breakfast after staying the night in Dunkeld and it did not disappoint! Lovely big breakfast which, good value for money and the staff were so friendly. Definitely recommend and will definitely be back!

had the nicest cake I have ever had! fresh out of the oven apple, cinnamon and sourdough - with fresh whipped cream. It was delicous. Was mortified to find I was there too early the next time I was in Dunkeld.

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.

Don’t go anywhere else. This is a busy bistro and café serving simple food which is of the highest quality and delicious. You can also have a glass of wine, beer, teas and coffee and soft drinks. The cakes look good too. It does takeaway. The staff are pleasant and very efficient. It has loos.

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

I have been going to this pub for 47 years on and off. On Sunday I went for lunch with my son and after we shared our starters, pigeon breast and Scotch egg, I was disappointed with the pigeon as it was very tough and came cut in cubes?? The pork parcel thing wasn't much better with what can only be described as baby sick over pastry and dry pork. I complained that day, we ate what we could palate and I paid the £86, they didn't charge for the one sweet, whoopee. So late that night my son calls me and says he's ill, I was also stuck to the toilet house spewing. After a visit to a doctor I was given meds for food poisoning. I called the Meiklour Arms 4 times and left emails but after 4 days I received no reply. So I drove the 20mls to see someone face to face. All I was met with was the rudest woman ive ever encountered who said there was nothing wrong with the food and its funny how nobody else fell ill? What? Did we all share the same pigeon? Yet she was adamant there was nothing wrong with the food cause they checked it! Hahaha so you ate some of it too to just check it? No, I'm sorry this is not how you treat customers who have been going to your place spending lots of money and never had a complaint before..ignorant, stuck up snobbish BS! Avoid this place, Fawley towers at its best.

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!!

We had our wedding dinner there in November with some of our friends and family. We have stayed multiple times before so we rented all the rooms and had the private dining hall to ourselves. The staff and chefs at the Taybank are absolutely exceptional. They are all so attentive but also very relaxed and low key which is 100% the vibe we wanted. Leading up to the day they were so flexible and easy going and made the whole thing weekend feel special without being over bearing or adding any “wedding tax”. The food is also some of the best in Scotland and the reason we keep coming back. I couldn’t speak more highly of this place and I’m so glad we got to make special life long memories at the Taybank. You’ll be seeing us soon and often.

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.
