The best restaurants serving Scottish food in Central Scotland

We were lucky enough to be able to book for New Year’s Eve lunch, and what a superb experience. The setting is magical, the food excellent and the staff excellent. Already looking forward to when I can return.

The best meal I’ve ever eaten. Absolutely outstanding. We went here whilst on holiday to celebrate my partners birthday. We wanted a special meal and wow did we get it. The restaurant is beautiful and intimate and right in the heart of Oban so very easy to walk to. Sitting at the chefs table watching him cook and hearing about how he sourced ingredients and about the local area was lovely. The food was indescribable it was simply stunning. We are still talking about the venison and scallops a week later. If you want something a little bit different and special this is it. We will definitely be back.

Fabulous food, some of the best food we have eaten in a long time. Warm friendly welcome from the owners and relaxed dining in comfortable surroundings. Will definitely go again. Great value for the money.

Amazing food and atmosphere. The manager, Edwin came to our table to check on everything. and was so nice and genuine. Brandon, our waiter was attentive and very personable. The food exceeded our expectations! We only had about a 15 minute wait and trust me ...it's worth any wait that you have!

Superb dinner before a gig at the Perth Concert Hall next door. Food was excellent and all staff friendly. Had baked salmon, steak burger and lemon posset - absolutely delicious!

Stopped for lunch. Had the steak pie special. Very good food, and a nice coffee too.

Lovely coffee shop. We were seated in a hut and it was very cosy. Great food & friendly staff.

The food was so good, especially the quarter pounder burger and onion rings

Value for money with sitin as an option. Jumbo sausage is two big sausages and loads of chips too.

Pulled in as fancied a drink, and really glad we did! View of castle spectacular and the place itself was just so lovely! Had a coffee, hot chocolate and some cake, was so relaxed and welcoming, and loved the music. Could have literally sat in there for hours just looking out the window. If you are in the area please go in!

I can really recomend both the food and the accomodation at The Craigs Hotel in Callander. We had a lovely stay with a genuine indian dinner, dinner was excellent! friendly staff, in a well looked after hotell. Thankyou from us Lena Hadal and Tim Carter

What we appreciate about this gem of a cafe is the relaxing and friendly environment that ooozes in everything. The range of scone flavours must be unique and they are baked on site , and often not just plain, fruit and cheese! There is a wide range of tray bakes that cater for all tastes. The staff are excellent, kind and patient, and never rush those visiting. For regular clients there is a loyalty system , meaning if you buy nine hot drinks you receive the tenth one free. As well as being a cafe there are books, greeting cards, postcards, and gifts for sale.

Great breakfast, good choice (even for vegetarians/vegans) and friendly helpful staff. Thoroughly enjoyed our breakfast - next time we might even try the breakfast cocktail …

We visited Polly’s pantry for afternoon tea on Mother’s Day. We’d seen them on tv and had been waiting for an occasion to book. It did not disappoint. The afternoon tea was absolutely delicious!!!!! Can’t recommend them highly enough and were very particular catering to our food allergies. The cake Bon Bon’s (not sure if this is the correct name) were a firm favourite! Can’t wait to book again soon. Lovely family run business everyone should support locally.

We were accommodated without a booking even on a busy Thursday night. We were offered the special deal but didn't really think there was a real saving. We had the haggis bonbons (ok but heavy); a delicious prawn dish; lovely albondigas; tasty, but small, smoked salmon and sour cream on breads;
