The best restaurants serving French food in Central Scotland

Ate here on a recent trip to Crieff, having heard lots about this restaurant, all very good & it exceeded my expectations. I chose a scallop & prawn starter and then a barley mushroom risotto Both were delicious, the risotto essentially. Dessert was a lime panacotta with a berry compote, which again was delicious. We had a bottle of organic Tempranillo, which was perfectly described on the wine list. The device was quick, professional & friendly without being too much. We will definitely return & highly recommended this to anyone who finds themselves in Crieff but want a taste of Europe

My husband and I came across this little bakery yesterday whilst visiting Burntisland. What a gem it is. We bought 2 sweet treats and OMG!!!! We will definitely be back to try your sourdough bread. Lovely lady served us too x

We tried The Crepe Shack at The Scottish Deer Centre. Crepe's are made to order, fresh, staff are friendly, it cost £5.25 for a Nutella and Banana Crepe. It was really good. We shared this as a family, passing it around for bite until it was gone and it served as a lovely sweet snack which broke up our time exploring the Centre. We would purchase from them again.

Fantastic find on our walk to Cellardyke. Great wee van, which sells a wide range of coffee and snacks - homemade cakes, crepes, rolls and icecream! Lovely to sit by the tidal pool.

Couldn't ask for a better meal than at Achray House. The chef has to be commended for the fabulous food on offer here.

Visiting Montrose for the first time as my partner’s mother has just moved there. She found this bakery on a 10 best website in Montrose and we walked down to try it. A five minute walk from the centre, it is a lovely and bright little shop with a few sets of tables to eat in and a beautiful display of different flavours of tart and a selection of cakes. I’ve now visited twice in two days and had hot chocolate, flat white, salmon and spinach tart, raspberry and vanilla cheesecake, lemon and blueberry cake, and pistachio and chocolate brownie. This may sound slightly greedy but trust me, it was all worth it! Highly recommend for takeaway or eat in. Friendly and chatty staff, a family run business that also sell at local farmers markets.

We enjoyed a fabulous dinner and a warm experience. The service was pleasant and prompt. A quiet and elegant environment. The sticky toffee pudding was fantastic. Thanks, Samphire!

Ate here on Wednesday 3 July 2024. Our second visit -- our first had been in March 2024. On first visit we ate on our own, this time a friend joined us. At the end of the evening, all three of us agreed. Excellent service. Excellent atmosphere. Most of all, excellent food. Seek it out if you are in the locality.

Outstanding food and service for a pit stop. Laura and Lesley were very accommodating and a master in their craft. Will be returning any time I pass here. For food I had the homemade onion Bhagi’s and a coronation chicken baguette. The food and the selection is vast. Also you can get homegrown produce in all varies kind's from food to clothing, soaps, candles and drink. The coffee is their own blend and it was brilliant. Highly recommend.

Was so good the first time we went, I booked again 2 weeks later. Lovely cosy restaurant oozing with charm. Brilliant service. And the food...beyond any superlative that I could muster. An a la carte and Set Menu offering a Soupe du jour, Starter du jour and Plat du jour. It's a good job we don't live locally as I'd be eating here every night:) Can't wait to go back.

Amazing food. The beast pizza was amazing with plenty toppings. Crepes amazing and staff very very friendly and good fun. We will defo be back .

Chilled. Lovely friendly hang out.

Absolutely fantastic experience from start to finish. The food was excellent and the staff are just fabulous. Our 4th time and it won’t be the last

Great wee local.pub. Friendly staff and regulars. Reasonably priced beers. Dog friendly. Pool table.

Fantastic staff and lovely steak pie. Compliments to Jay the waiter for his welcoming manner and communication skills and one of the chefs Martyn for asking me if my meal was satisfactory. It was. More than.
