What Our Guests Say

Don't just take our word for it — hear from the people who've experienced our hospitality

"We had an impromptu family birthday celebration in this pub where many family members had travelled from Glasgow. The staff here were excellent and bent over backwards to accommodate us all and to make sure our night was great. Great team of staff and great service."

"Had dinner here, roast beef dinner and steak pie. The food was amazing. Meat was so tender and the gravy, well, it was better than my sister's and that's a big ask. Reasonable prices and plenty of it. Will definitely be back. Do I have room for dessert? Rude not to!"

via Google

"Spent the weekend in Dunblane and this wee gem of a place was brilliant. The staff and service was great. The food was amazing! It's dog friendly also. We felt so welcome that we returned a few times for food and drinks! Can't wait to return!"

"Gorgeous food well presented and delicious. Staff are lovely too."

"We enjoyed two meals here, indeed we purposefully came back the second night because we enjoyed our meal and because the atmosphere was great, plus the staff were really friendly. As a vegetarian, I had a good choice."
