Whistlebinkies

Despite a fairly unremarkable interior and beer selection, Whistlebinkies knows how to draw custom away from the centre of Stirling. Saturday’s lively music sessions are one of the biggest attractions, with the emphasis largely on folk and acoustic, although punk urchins have been known to get a look-in. At other times there’s a more relaxed air to recommend, with affable bar staff, a secluded beer garden and space to stretch out indoors. The reasonably priced pub-grub includes one of the best gluten-free selections around.
