Lovely cafe with polite and friendly staff who really made sure to welcome us and paid special attention to my nephew and two nieces (8,6&4). Special kids menu was limited to soup/sandwich but that was all they needed. Adult Soup & Sandwich deal was great to, came beautifully presented with a small salad, crisps and plenty of crusty bread. Goats cheese puff pastry tart with beetroot salad looked lovely too. Great coffees. The huge attached Antiques Centre is like an indoor market (in the nicest sense!) with various antique shops/collectors having rented their own area/display, on the plus side it's great to browse, on the minus a bit of a dust was in order for some 'shops' my sinuses & my mum's asthma definately started to bother us after a while! There's also a small food hall selling local specialities as well as a 'new' area selling kitchenware, clothes, jewellery, garden equipment etc Admittedly the 'new' shops will probably have stuff you can get elsewhere, but the Antiques area will be heaven for collectors/hoarders ;) read more

Leave at least an hour to explore Abernyte, it's a real maze of antique / vintage / collectables. They also have a food hall and cafe. Where I managed to locate cream soda cordial (delicious) I like playing picks here. e.g if money was no obligation, what would I have? Today was diamond earrings and a colonial style dinning table and 12 chairs that I would of course need a new dinning room to hold! Ah I am such a day dreamer, but lots of fun. It is 1 mile off the main road between Perth & Dundee and it is well worth a look. There is a second shop at Doune (near Callendar) read more
