After all, this is a luxury that is simply not available for those visiting Scotland from the US, where the countryside is polluted with KFC and McDonalds emblems, leaving little appreciation for a family owned business and a high quality meal from real, local ingredients. Cafe Tabou spectacular. The ambiance is that of a dinner restaurant, with a great selection of steaks that the restaurant is best known for. The bottles of wine here are not expensive, although the upcharge to retail is substantial mostly landing at x3 to x4 to retail price. That is certainly higher than expected and putting higher quality bottles without increasing the price would be a reasonable consideration for the restaurant. When it comes to the steak, the preparation is absolutely phenomenal. The seafood is also excellent, with fish of the day being a great dish. All around, Cafe Tabou is easy to recommend. A great small restaurant.

Willows is a bit of an establishment in Perth. This doesn't necessarily work in it's favour…read more While it can't be beat in town for outdoor seating, with it's next door view of the historic St John's Kirk and the cobble stone streets surrounding the controversially derelict city hall, Willows is nowhere near my top places to visit in Perth for anything other than enjoying Suki Tea on a sunny day. And while the outdoor seating is lovely it is overshadowed by the unambitious decor inside. The lunch sandwiches are so-so. My high expectations were let down quite quickly once seeing their slightly more visually appealing than average coronation chicken sandwich. It tastes as good as it looks... just ok. The only redeeming factor for me is that they serve Suki Tea, which I love. But while they serve it in Suki Tea pots, the cups are something out of your gran's favourite cafe... you know the one, it usually serves generic tea bags in a small metal pot with a flat lid that doesn't pour properly. I'll continue to visit here on dry summer days for the outdoor seating, but I have no need to try the food again. Perth is a place of average expectations and Willows meets these.

It is great to finally have a Starbucks in Perth. There are some good and great coffee shops both…read moreindependent and chains in town, but sometimes I just like to have a chai latte from Starbucks. Most people would already know what to expect as far as the products from Starbucks, and the only ones who would be disappointed here would be those who are already anti-Starbucks. I have been going here since it opened in April 2014, and my drink has been great most times. The building has a great layout. It's much bigger on the inside that it seems when just walking past... pretty much it's a coffee TARDIS. The seating is more spaced out than any other coffee shop in town. So if I'm wanting to have a more private conversation, I'll come here rather than say Costa, where people are almost sitting on top of each other. Also, it's the only coffee shop in Perth with outdoor seating that faces the sun... When it's shining of course. The staff are very friendly. The only issue I've had here was one time when ordering a soy latte for my wife. She can't take milk and ended up with a regular latte, which she didn't realise until after she had finished the whole drink. I spoke with the manager who was very apologetic and said she would address the issue with the relevant staff. At any rate, if you have dietary issues it would be worth double checking that they got it right.

The coffee shop is on the outskirts of Perth on the other side of the river near to Scone Palace…read more It is in a great location at the edge of a woodland park and it has seats outside to sit at in the summer or if you are walking the dog. We stopped off for lunch after a walk and were very pleasantly surprised. They sell a selection of sandwiches and soup as well as lots of different cakes and you can tell everything is fresh. All the waitresses are volunteers and are really friendly. The price for lunch for three of us was less than £15 for a sandwich and a cake. Good value and you know that the money goes to charity as well. Will definitely return for a visit when it opens again in the Spring (not open in the winter months unfortunately).

*This is actually a review for the Perth store*…read more So we decided to have one last meal before the weekend ends so we decide to drive through Callendar and head to Perth's Frankie & Benny's. We get seated almost straight away by the assertive hostess next to the kitchen (my favourite spot) We decide to have the usual - burgers. I chose the bacon cheeseburger and my partner chose the construct my own cheeseburger (sometimes it's like dining with a 5 year old). It took all of five minutes for it to come out and be served to us and it was delicious! I even enjoyed the relish which was mixed with a sweet BBQ sauce and the fries were cooked perfectly. My partner ordered the cheeseburger with the salad on the side, along with chips and relish. The chips were piping-hot - an apparent rarity in most restaurants nowadays (why is it so difficult to ensure food reaches the table at a satisfactory temperature??) where the standard offering is lukewarm coffee served with a portion of yesterday's nachos. These chips had a slight crunch then a perfectly fluffy filling - excellent! The salad was fresh and tasted fantastic with the relish - I'm not even sure what was in the relish but I wanted more. Lastly the burger; something I've failed to be impressed with at F&B's previously! The burger was cooked to perfection, the cheese melted into the meat - the flavour of which seemed to be intensified by the relish. Almost cleared my plate if it wasn't for that pesky bun! We then decided to have a sweet and deliberated over the four different types of waffles: chocolate and honeycomb, mint, banoffee or cinnamon... but then we were faced with another impossible choice... what about the cheesecakes??! My kryptonite! There was: vanilla, salt and caramel or peanut butter cheesecake. So we decided that one of us would choose a waffle and the other a cheesecake and we'd share (I'm nice like that). Now for the hilarious part. I asked the hostess if I could charge my iPhone somewhere as I had a hundred mile journey and was at 16% left! She agreed to charge it at a counter for me. Just before we ordered our dessert I went to "check on my phone", but really I was making our amazing waiter Jordan (shoutout!) aware that it was my boyfriend's birthday and he said "say no more". Suddenly the lights went out for a third time to celebrate someone's birthday and my partner says "oh who's next? That's the third time!" Unbeknownst to him it was for him! His face was 'not-amused face emoji'! But I was 'crying with laughter-faced emoji! We chose the mint waffles which comprised of a cinnamon waffle with two scoops of mint ice cream and the peanut butter cheesecake with peanut butter ice cream - amazing! Lastly, I ordered a coffee and being the coffee fiend that I am, really enjoyed it, I've no idea what blend it was but it tasted different to anything I've had in any local Frankie & Benny's. Jordan was so nice when getting our bill that he took my partner's meal off of the bill as a birthday treat! Fantastic service and well-worth a visit the next time you're passing! A really good end to a perfect week.

The waitress was friendly and very understanding. She also brought us a large pitcher of water without even asking us if we wanted it - awesome! I ordered a Club Triple Decker and my wife ordered a Chicken Pitta with Louisiana Hot sauce. Good arrived promptly, hot, and platted well on white plates. Pricing felt a little steep, but the amount of food that came out put my mind at ease. We both enjoyed our food immensely, including the fries. My club had a chicken breast which was a nice surprise. My only complaint was that the bread was slightly dry - so my mouth feels scratches at the moment, but it was still a good sandwich.
