We visited Vecchia Bologna for a meal along with our business colleagues. It was an excellent meal. The food was outstanding top quality, service was impeccable and the ambience & decor was brilliant. This is definitely one of the top quality restaurants near the Bridge of Allan. I had the mussels in garlic which gets bit messy if you are game but tasted brilliant. For mains I had the gnocchi which was awesome as well. We had gone for lunch. Guess the ambience at dinners might be very different with the lights etc. better to make a booking when you plan to go here. Highly recommended place. One of the best meals I have had .

After touring the castle we stopped at a couple places to eat late lunch but neither were open. This was only place open on the street and it was a good option. My wife liked her toasty and we had two big hot chocolates. Great for a cold day.

Everything about the Kailyard is good. It's in great surroundings at Dunblane Hydro, the service is excellent, the prices are reasonable for what you get, and most importantly, the food is fabulous. We ate here in September and again in October, and it was terrific both times.

Really disappointed with my families lunch today.
The chicken pakora was extremely dry.
The chilli bhuna had 4 pieces of chicken , lots of tomatoes and was very tangy/sour which is not what I would normally associate with bhuna.
When the bill came there was a charge for a mixed dips which we didn’t order and a charge of £7 for 2 sodas and lime. Although the mixed dip was refunded I still feel the charge for rhe sodas was greedy.
The server says I need to factor in the cleaning of the tumbler etc. He also seemed unperturbed by my criticism of the meal and said they were busy enough and doing well.
Overpriced , small portions and not very tasty. Not what I would put with the Mr.Signh brand at all.

Reviewed By James R - Dunblane, United Kingdom
First visit to this restaurant and impressed with the general ambiance, service, wines. The main courses were excellent but we were both disappointed with our starters both of which were drenched in olive oil. The bread of my Bruschetta was soggy and my wife's tomato and onion salad was swimming in oil.

We hired a house just down the road and visited the Inn a few times whilst we were staying in Gargunnock. The staff were very welcoming, the fire made it lovely and cosy, the food was excellent as was the wine. It was also doggy friendly - we could not have asked for more!

A stop for morning coffee on our journey. Easy parking nearby, friendly welcome from the “Beech Tree Babes”! Good service, and the scones were delicious- unusually with black currant jam. Good toilets, a pleasant stop. Very reasonable prices.

Loved this place. Stopped here in our way to Strathyre for lunch. What a really great surprise. The food was delicious, especially the chicken wrapped in bacon and haggis. We were sat at a table in front of an open fire , which was perfect as it was cold and snowing outside. Our waitress eilidh was fantastic, quick, attentive and super friendly. Will return when back in Strathyre. Thank you

Was visiting Doune castle, where they filmed the Holy grail and Outlander but sadly there is no cafe. Everyone recommended this place and it was great advice.
Freshly made bread every morning, clean, fresh interior. Pleasant staff and most importantly good selection of cakes!
Enjoyed my soup and cake and if passing through again had my eye on some of the panini. Lovely menu.
if in the area you can’t miss it on the High Street. Seems very popular with the locals as fills up quickly. doune castle 5 mins away.
