The best restaurants serving Scottish food in Central Scotland

We had dinner here for my husband’s 50th birthday. The restaurant setting is stunning. The Lalique connection means the decor features Lalique touches everywhere. The staff are welcoming and attentive. We had a 16 course tasting menu. The first few dishes are described as snacks - one bite delicacies to be washed down with an aperitif. We then had langoustine and a lobster “bisque it” as well as the most delicious loaf of bread. The main courses included a delightful fish dish and squab pigeon followed by a palate cleanser pre dessert and chocolate melt in the mouth dessert. Each course was a work of art and delicious. It is expensive but worth every penny,

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.

Superb! Delicious freshly cooked food and a warm welcome from the hosts. Excellent choice of locally sourced meals with lovely vegetarian options. Thoroughly enjoyed every course.

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!

First visit here and very impressed. We had such a warm welcome when we arrived and shown to a table. Each server who attended our table was friendly and helpful. I am all about the service and this venue has aced it. A wide selection of food. We had open sandwich (smoked salmon and there was plenty) and sirloin ciabatta both were super. Lovely atmosphere too. Will be back.

Fabulous fresh food at a good price and generous servings. Friendly staff

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

Great fish and chips but expensive

Always a fabulous stop, but today an amazing Christmas Menu👍 Everything we tried, mains and desserts was fabulous - even got mulled wine and crackers - nice touch 😂

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;

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

Excellent lunch , came here for the first time yesterday and it certainly won’t be the last, food was fantastic and the service and staff were amazing, this place is spotless, makes our trip to Perth worth looking forward to lunch time ❤️😀

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 …

Delicious birthday dinner at the Old Manse..nice menu, quality food, nice wine list and fantastic service. Crab starter (photo), rib eye main and Cranachan for dessert! Will return for sure!
