This is officially my post-hike pub stop.

The food is great, the staff are friendly and the fire is always going. I also love the ginormous topo map of scotland on the wall. It's a great conversation starter as hikers adn walkers alwasy stand around discussing the weekends achievements, planning next journeys and swapping advice. If my phone picked up signal there i would have accumulated quite a few check ins by now!

I tried it in three other restaurants and none of them came close to the Fairie Tree Inn. I would crawl on my hands and knees from Glasgow to Aberfoyle for another bowl of this soup.

This place is a down to earth pub that does food in the tourist season.

Having spent lots of my summer holidays as a child in the area I know you will love the scenery and the ruggedness of the landscape.

Love this place! Bit out of the way but worth the trip…read more Good sized menu with daily specials! Also the day we went there were quite a few veggie options on offer. We had the smoked mackerel and the chicken liver pate, my sister had the goats cheese salad to start, nice sized portions with very fresh salad on the side. Mum and my Aunt had the fish and chips and said it was really good. Crispy battler and a nice sharp tartare sauce. My sister had the burger which she polished off. I had the beetroot and courgette lasagne which was creamy and delicious. Puds were heavenly and my French Martini went down a treat. We love this place for family treats as it has good sized tables and is quite roomy. If you are going at the weekend definitely book and in the summer it gets really busy with folks visiting Inchmahome Priory. Worth the trip and we are already planning an overnight stay

Wow! If you are looking for a little Bostonian New England in Scotland, this is the place! We took…read moreshelter in this unexpected gem of a hotel/restaurant to wait out the rain for a trip to Inchnahome Priory, which is a two minute walk down the road from the hotel. The restaurant is nearly all glass, has a beautiful stone fireplace and looks out onto Menteith Lake - only a stone's throw away. We sat in the Port Bar, located directly behind and overlooking the restaurant. The furnishings are elegant, tasteful and sumptuous. The surroundings, idyllically bucolic. We arrived too early for lunch, but had a very nice americano, espresso and hot chocolate, served with homemade shortbread. The wait staff were all friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning to try the food! After our refreshments, we trotted down the road to catch the little ferry to Inchmahome Priory and take a walk around the picturesque island, where Mary Queen of Scots was brought as a four-year-old queen in 1547. Despite the unrelenting rain, we enjoyed a walk around the small island and the impressive ruins. This trip makes a perfect day outing from Edinburgh at just about one hour each way. Do plan to eat lunch at the Waterfront Restaurant. If the rooms are as impressive as the Restaurant/Bar, then a weekend stay would not disappoint!

Sadly there was no fish available with it being a bank holiday, but I'll forgive them as they're not willing to compromise on quality. The rabbit came with a watering can for the gravy which added a great bit of humour. Served with a black pudding soil, which might not be everyone's taste, along with carrots, pea shoots and flowers, it really was a sight. It's fun to water the rabbit garden with the gravy can. Makes for a great destination to drive out from the city. Well worth the road trip.
