Having the possibility of many highly reviewed restaurants in Perth (on Google and TripAdvisor) meant that we were spilt for choice.
We eventually settled on the Venue because of their beautiful looking food and their array of gins.
And we were not disappointed.
I really can't rate this place highly enough. The staff immediately made us feel extremely welcome and completely attended to. They were knowledgeable, friendly and hilarious. A great discussion and recommendation of the menu meant that I had the scallops to start and the belly pork as a main. Everything cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. Not only that but my sweet, tender belly pork didn't need a knife as it just fell apart, and was huge!
The place itself is made up of several little areas and they had a community dining set up where you share a giant table with other guests. I'm personally not normally a fan of this because I like my own space... But it worked well here as it added to the cost ambience.
I could write a separate review on the range of gins and whiskey... But I'll just say, it's absolutely massive.
We also tried some cocktails which again were wonderful.
After eating our fill (and then finding room for pudding and some complimentary treats) we spent £65 on 3 courses each a one a few drinks. I have paid much much more before for a lot less.
One of the highlights of our entire trip to Scotland was visiting The Venue, in Perth. read more
