Oh the Fountain. Where to start?…read more This is perhaps my favourite take away in Stirling. A bold statement, perhaps, but one which I will stand by! The food itself is split into two categories, traditional chip shop and indian take way, and yet The Fountain in no way lose their identity, they have a high standard of food which speaks for itself. While the food is great after a night out, it is also good enough that it can be eaten sober and really enjoyed. The staff are very friendly and are quick to make the food, and usually will make food to order. If you don't mind the wait for fresh food, made from fresh ingredients, then there is a comfortable enough seating area, which some diners actually use to eat in, although I have yet to sit in and eat here(, I'm usually happier eating my chips at home.) I have used the delivery service from here as well, and have never waited longer than forty-five minutes, even at peak times, and have never felt the quality differs whether it is bought in store or over the phone. Keep it up The Fountain, I will definitely be back!

Now that I don't live above The Fountain I tend not to get food from there anymore. Looking back,…read moreit was just a matter of convenience and there's much fresher, better options nearby. La Ciociara's takeaway is great for pizza, Smiling Jack's for Mexican and my new love Spice Garden does marvellous Indian food. So, now that I've a bit of a variety with takeaway options just minutes away, I don't think I'd go out of my way to head back.

It seems that I wound up having fish and chips at the Allan Water four years too late. I wish I'd…read morerocked up here in first year of university for a chippie because I'd have been back here countless times over the years. I wish I'd a time machine! 'Can I have a small please?' HOLD ON A SECOND. - There's been a mistake. This is not small. But yes! Yes, it is. Such is the portion control at the Allanwater cafe. I couldn't finish my small fish supper. If you can finish medium, I commend you. Huge portions, great value and the efficient staff worked through the out-the-door queue with great ease! If you want fish and chips in Stirling, this is the place for it. - Most definitely!

Came here twice during a four day stay in Dunblane, once for breakfast and then for dinner. Being a…read moreforeigner, I had to go for the English breakfast. Honestly, I enjoyed it. It's a large portion, you get half a slice of a black pudding sausage, a full sausage (deep fried ), large pork slices which I believe was supposed to be bacon, and a fried egg and beans over a slice of bread. The local I was with wasn't too impressed but as this is my review, I think it was fine. We also came for dinner- ordered carry out fish and chips. I had high expectations for this place based on local reviews and experiences. I'm not quite sure what went wrong- it may have been the 10-15 min ride home that made the batter/fish soggy but overall I wasn't too impressed. The batter was bland and it was a bit alarming to watch how much vinegar and salt was added to the dish before it was served. The slab of fish was huge, however and you can easily feed 2 with the medium portion. Maybe the fish would have been better if I ate it right away. In any case, this place still gets 4 stars, weighted more for the breakfast.

Known for kebabs, shawarmas, and burgers, Yum Yum also does deep fried mars bars, which I noticed when I first went up the steps of the Close with their outdoor sign. Being that Edinburgh is one of the few areas that have spots that make these, I was happy to see Yum Yum did it. I'm basing my review off of my order experience. It was made quickly. Payment was fast. And the mars bars was decent. If I was drunk, I would probably be foodgasming more. But I will say, it was very good and pleased I was able to experience while I was in town.

SOLID Doner kebab with a lot of vegetables and yummy sauce. This place is hidden around a corner…read morebut was such a nice find. We got the chicken and lamb kebab as well as a classic Doner kebab. Both were nice but the mixed meat was better. The sauces were really good too and I wish they had feta, but.... I think it's what I'm used to. Really great and fast snack and so happy we stopped here.

Topkapi is a Turkish Restaurant and Takeaway…read more I've only ever had takeaway from here, but can say it's the best Kebab I've enjoyed in Fife. The Owner and Head Chef, Murat, has been cooking Turkish food for over 25 years and that experience really comes through in the flavour of the dishes. Assisted by another friendly face in Ali, they give you the feeling that nothing is too much trouble and that they enjoy preparing food for you. So far I've tried the large Lamb Shish and Kofte mixed Kebab, which was both substantial and delicious. Tender meat, lightly spiced in the case of the Kofte with crisp salad, sauces and fresh pitta. I've also had the Lamb Sauté. This is a saucy, tomato based dish with slow cooked diced Lamb and served with a seeded bread that is like a cross between Naan and Ciabatta. My apologies for not knowing the name of it prior to the review. Again this was lovely but, if you are ordering this, please remember it is a sauce based dish so not a kebab. With that expectation, you should enjoy it very much. Having only discovered this place relatively recently, I've been three times already !!! Good food and friendly service will do that to you though :-)

What a pleasant surprise! I had expected a dirty, greasy place but was very pleased to see that it was exceptionally clean and there was one member of staff who seemed to be engaged in full-time cleaning duties of the restaurant. Our food was basic but very tasty, and there was some nutritional info on a leaflet given to us with the tray which again surprised me as it was nowhere as bad as I had expected - my entire meal had approx 600 calories. They also have a drive-in service which is very popular - we watched dozens of cars passing through while we ate. Although I never thought I'd say it, I would highly recommend stopping off here for a very cheap and cheerful lunch - it's a lot better than I expected!
