Family owned pub/restaurant offering local fresh produce in the beautiful surroundings of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park. Disabled accessible and family/dog friendly.

Lovely soup and great that it's dog friendly. Felt soup and baguette deal over priced for what you get- more mayo than prawn! Costs a few pound more than the baguette on it's own but without the crisps or salad. The lentil soup was very tasty though. Ate in the bar and lovely casual atmosphere but for £10 I would expect staff to bring cutlery, not walk past it several times and then tell you to get your own! Got the sense that this is a place that has become complacent on the basis of a good reputation and location but has let standards slip. On the plus side there is a car park which saves the hassle of Callander parking. Very sorry to learn you did not receive our usual efficient service. This should not have happened. Our staff are trained to bring cutlery in the bar however during busy times this may have been missed. Please accept my apologies.

I travelled from Edinburgh to Callander to visit friends and went to The Byre Inn for dinner. Although off the beaten track I was pleasantly surprised to find a little gem with a great atmosphere. I had the The Byre Inn burger which was delicious. This companied with great music and a warm open fire resulted in a great dinner experience. Canât wait to go back!

The Byre Inn is a lovely looking pub and we found the landlady to be really nice and friendly. Sadly, the landlord likes the sound of his own voice rather too much and his constant "jokes", often at the expense of the customers, really gets on your nerves. He simply wouldn't shut up and leave us alone, even when we were trying to read. As others have mentioned on here, he needs to learn when to back off and leave customers alone. His "jokes" at our expense were the kind you might have in banter with your mates, not with someone you've just met. The meals themselves were basic and not worth the price paid. We were then overcharged (no itemised bill, so we had to work it out ourselves) and had to complain. The music is certainly eclectic, but that's okay as long as it's kept in the background. Sadly, the landlord seems to think he's some kind of DJ and plays it so loud you can't have a conversation. The pub itself is a lovely building and could be a cracking place, but it's let down by the self obsessed landlord (whom I expect to post an acidic reply to this review as he has with other poor reviews) and the incredibly high prices. £5 for a point of bitter ? Welcome to the Byre Inn, Shoreditch !We won't go over old ground. Our prices are what they are. Please refer to previous responses.Our repeat business and wonderful reviews speak for themselves. Jason interacts with all customers and goes out of his way to make guests welcome as is regularly stated in other trip advisor reviews. The fact that he didnt get on with you says more about you than him.If you want to sit and read and not socialise can I suggest spending an afternoon in the bar of a pub isn't the place to do it. Again as with other posts, we have a quiet dining room, if you make the decision to sit in the noisier bar as you did, you will hear music! Shock horror! If you want to get into an "acid attack" slagging match please come back and speak to me, the lovely landlady, who will be more than happy to accommodate you. I have a few things to say to those who smile when leaving then launch personal and bitter cyber attacks on my family via trip advisor. Unfortunately none are suitable for public viewing.

Found this when staying nearby while on holiday in the Trossachs. The food was really excellent - I loved the creamy chicken with rice while my wife had fantastic beef and ale pie - large chunks of melt in your mouth beef and crispy filo pastry. The starters did not disappoint - the home made fish cakes were delicious. Everything seemed to be lovingly homemade. The service was friendly and efficient and you were treated as more than a number which was good.This is certainly not a posh environment but traditional almost like a village hall internally but a lovely atmosphere within a beautiful and rather quieter village than most of the nearby Trossachs. The only slight bugbear for me is a pet hate that the sample menu on the web did not seem to reflect the current pricing. I have to say the prices were reasonable anyway but generally a couple of quid higher per item than on the published sample. It would be good to see the sample menu updated. The sweet would have been beautiful (the berry mixture was divine) had a mistake not been made with a cheesy topping instead of sweet one. This mistake that anyone could make was handled very professionally and although we didn't want another sweet by then they very thoughtfully and kindly brought us a small ice cream each on the house. This small error really didn't spoil our evening which as a whole was very much worthy of 5 stars and a thorough recommendation. My only disappointment was not being able to enjoy that lovely berry mixture!We will be back when we are next in the area too and would definitely wholeheartedly recommend this establishment to anyone who likes informal dining on quality home made food for a reasonable price - something it is hard to find around that area.

Stopped here on the off chance we could get a table to have a quick bite to eat. No problems getting a table and we thoroughly enjoyed the goats cheese pizza and the fish & chips (hubby loved the fish and chips but says it needed peas, maybe its because he's a northern england lad :-)Staff friendly and on the whole it had a great atmosphere which seemed to have a mix of locals and visitors. Enjoyed a nice wee dram of Dalmore ( when in Scotland...) Recommend.

We called in for lunch whilst on holiday in the area, and were welcomed with a smile plus treats for black lab. The beer and the food were very much to our liking with a good choice available plus a smiling service,Following this we visited here on two more occasions with the same good results.
