The best restaurants in Central Scotland

Sin duda calidad precio muy buena. Marisco de calidad cocinado al momento y a buen precio. Nosotros pedimos los mejillones al vino blanco, gambas que eran cigalas com mantequilla y vieyras con mantequilla.

Service impeccable, staff friendly and helpful. Food delicious, generous portions at reasonable prices. A really excellent curry experience

We had an excellent lunch at the Loft. Nice food and good service served by the owners. Starters and main s all good and well presented and very tasty.

Have been to Lass o Gowrie a few times now and it’s always such a lovely, welcoming atmosphere with delicious food. We came for breakfast with Santa on Christmas Eve and it was such a lovely and magical experience! We were welcomed by a wonderful elf who knew my wee boy’s name and had him giggling a lot throughout the morning! There were so many lovely touches such as a wee gift waiting at our table and a personalised colouring sheet. A lot of effort clearly went into making this a magical experience for all involved and it really paid off! Can’t wait to go back!

The best food had at the pavilion ! Beautiful prawn and salmon laksa with noodles was sooo good! The cod in Mediterranean sauce was amazing along with sharing plate of sweet potato and beetroot frittata, olives and warm bread followed by a fabulous tiramisu! Could not fault any of it ! Well worth a visit for great food and service at reasonable price !!! Thank you to Rosie and her team !

Just a very good and consistent quality of Indian food served…. Try a few dishes but I reckon one of the best Pathia dishes I’ve ever eaten.

We came in quite late last night for a last minute dinner. We have ordered take away before but never sat in. Quite a few people in so a good sign. Food was outstanding! Great portion sizes, taste was unbelievable. By far one of the best Indian meals we have had. Unfortunately for us, the service let us down massively. Our server was quite blunt, no pleasantries, seemed quite rude. We did observe him on other tables though and it didn't seem to be the case with those. Maybe they were regulars? Should never be the case anyway. If it wasn't for the service we would have left 5 stars.

Lovely wee spot with delicious food and great service ! Would recommend the chicken tikka panini, made with real chicken tikka 🥰 beautiful cakes aswell!!!

A delicious lunch in a beautiful spot. The bread was freshly home baked and the cheese was served with a very tasty homemade pickle and a chutney.

I booked with slight trepidation after reading some mixed reviews. Staying at Fionnphort or 2 nights with my wife to visit Iona & Staffa and as the trip coincided with my wife's birthday I booked the Ninth Wave as a treat. We both eat out regularly in Scotland and abroad and have been lucky enough to visit some Michelin starred places over the years. The service at Ninth Wave was slightly quirky but very pleasant and the dining room small but very relaxed. The quality of food served was beyond expectations and on a par with some Michelin starred establishments. The format is akin to a tasting menu with 3 or 4 smaller plates (#4 is dessert), cheese as an optional extra and coffee / petit fours included. We shared a decent bottle of white from an interesting list. I had scallops and wood pigeon while my wife had the mackerel and crab stuffed courgette blossom. We both chose the half lobster "main" course. the Pigeon was slightly tough but otherwise the food was faultless. The lobster was exceptional and so refreshing to see it on a menu without the usual pricing supplement. Fabulous evening - thank you Carla and John. We will visit again one day.

Visited this wonderful tea room having visited the area and read the reviews. Had a lovely cup of tea with the most amazing home made chocolate orange cake. There was a huge choice of cake available, I’m not sure how the lady remembered them all. We never looked at the lunch menu, but will next time we visit. All of the staff were really friendly. The lady did tell us that they don’t take cards but could take a bank transfer or cash. If visiting the area, a stop off is definitely recommended.

After a surprise visit from No1 son we went out for tea, service and food ticked all the boxes and would have no hesitation in recommending certainly a credit to the town. Word of caution always safer making a reservation so you don’t miss out.

Across from Perth Museum. Stopped for lunch. Excellent lentil and vegetable soup. Open for breakfast and lunch. Good selection of sandwiches and salads. Prices reasonable. Staff very friendly. Would definitely stop again. Give it a try.

Really good food, friendly owners i that bar on the edge of the world (well, almost ;) I highly recommend!

Although closed for the season, the Galleon Bistro reopened for just the one night of Hogmanay, with a special 6-course menu. The food on offer was good, but not ‘really special’. The main negative was that the portion sizes were simply too large, given that the food was quite rich, so we managed only one bottle of wine. This all meant that we left feeling a bit bloated and not quite sure if we could survive the ceilidh down the street! The meat eaters began with an amuse-bouche of grilled breaded brie, smoked fish pate and pigs in blanket, with a huge slice of chicken-liver parfait as starter, a celeriac soup ‘entremet’, a delicious main course of dry-aged beef with various sides, and a rich chocolate mousse infused with Baileys as dessert. All followed by petit fours of tablet, chocolate fudge and shortbread rounds, with tea and coffee. The Galleon also provided a vegetarian alternative with the same soup, dessert and petit fours, but a different starter, (pasta) main course and amuse-bouche. The atmosphere was relaxed and inviting and the price, though steep, was reasonable. However, the invitation to add on extra at one’s discretion for service is really unwarranted for a small, family-run establishment and felt to us antiquated and even a bit embarrassing.
