The Beat
56 Kenilworth Road,
Stirling,
FK8 2DS
Scotland
Attached to the rear of the Meadowpark Hotel on the road from Stirling to Bridge of Allan, Beat has a slick, urban feel that contrasts starkly to its rural setting. Safer than its rowdy competitors in the centre of Stirling, it attracts business away…
The Portcullis
Castle Wynd,
Stirling,
FK8 1BU
Scotland
The winding, uphill approach to the family-run Portcullis is a treat, with the Ochils on the right and Stirling Castle looming to the left. A converted schoolhouse built in 1787, it’s open and uncluttered inside, just a few historical figurines dotting…
East India Company
7 Viewfield Place,
Stirling,
Stirling,
FK8 1NQ
Entering East India Company via a short, narrow staircase brings you into a candle-lit basement restaurant, an atmospheric room of dark wood, Raj-influenced knick knacks and old colonials staring down from the walls. Menus are fairly familiar, and, for…
FUBAR
6 Maxwell Place,
Stirling,
FK8 1JY
Fubar was once Scotland’s home of hardcore, but now the musical policy veers towards nostalgia and chart favourites. Wednesdays are targeted at the gay community while Thursdays are dominated by raucous students. Saturday is a lary 70s night of wigs and…
Pivo
11/13 Corn Exchange,
Stirling,
FK8 2QA
Scotland
Pivo sets itself apart from its equally modern counterparts in its stubborn refusal to bring the big screens for sports fans. Instead, daytime traffic is drawn in by chilled beats, decent pub grub and a surfeit of glossy mags. Wrought iron, Czech…
Chambo
Mine Road, Bridge of Allan,
Stirling,
FK9 4DT
Scotland
Located in a former Victorian spa house with a large garden in the most expensive part of Bridge of Allan, close to the road known locally as Millionaire's Row, Chambo has none of the stuffiness you might expect of the poshest restaurant in the poshest…
Peckham's
52 Port Street,
Stirling,
FK8 2LJ
Scotland
The delicatessen at the front will be familiar to those who have visited any of the other Peckham's across Scotland, stocking the usual diverting blend of luxury foods and intriguing liquor. There’s always likely to be some frittata, garlic roulade or…
Sheriffmuir Inn
By Dunblane,
Stirling,
FK15 0LN
Scotland
The Sheriffmuir Inn is a whitewashed haven on a lonely moor that seems far away from its Central Belt spot on the map. Geoff and Moira Cook took over the 18th-century inn in May 2005, since when the restaurant has been steadily building a decent…
La Scala d'Oro
The Tolbooth, Jail Wynd,
Stirling,
FK8 1DE
Up on the first floor of Tolbooth, Stirling's contemporary arts and music venue, La Scala d'Oro caters mostly to hungry gig-goers, but this Scottish-Italian fusion restaurant could easily hold its own with its convincing mix of the two cuisines. In…
Ben Ledi Café (Mhor Fish)
75-77 Main Street,
Callander,
Stirlingshire,
FK17 8DX
Owned and run by well-known foodie folk in Stirlingshire, the Lewis family - who also own the Monachyle Mhor in Balquhidder - Ben Ledi Café will make sure you're well fed and watered on your visit to scenic Callander. Welcomed by grand Ben Ledi as you…
Crema
32-40 Murray Place,
Stirling,
FK8 2DD
Scotland
Slap bang in the city centre, Crema offers a welcome change from the fast food mulch shoppers often have to resort to. Smiling staff dish up soup and sandwiches they’ve made freshly on the day – sunblush tomatoes with mozzarella and chicken tikka are…
Crieff Hydro
Crieff,
Stirling,
PH7 3LQ
Scotland
Crieff Hydro’s 900-acre estate is the setting for an array of outdoors and relaxation activities that come with the bonus of views across the Strathearn Valley. It’s a place buzzing with families but still willing to cater for those old enough to hanker…
Riverhouse Restaurant
Castle Business Park, Craigforth,
Stirling,
FK9 4TW
Scotland
The Riverhouse is not particularly close to the nearest river (the Forth), nor does it, as its website mischievously claims, occupy a loch side setting (the 'loch' is a small, man-made body of water not a great deal bigger than a pond.) What it does do…
Berits and Brown
Main Street, Kippen,
Stirling,
FK8 3DN
Scotland
Since opening in 2004 this deli and wine shop has become as popular with day-trippers from Glasgow and Edinburgh as it is with locals. Drink coffee, eat lunch, browse, buy, taste, shoot the breeze or sit at the big scrubbed oak table reading one of the…
Best Bar None
50 Upper Craigs,
Stirling,
FK8 2DS
Scotland
A brash but slightly confused style bar – an eye-catching painting of Stirling landmarks snuggles up to ads for Cuban rum – Best Bar None nevertheless has reasons to recommend it.
Blair Drummond Safari Park
Blair Drummond, by Stirling,
Stirling,
FK9 4UR
Scotland
Don’t visit Scotland’s safari park if the peace of the high veld is what you crave; you are likely to be sharing your safari with busloads of garrulous Glasgwegian kids. But if you want a guaranteed great day out with children, look no further. The…
C-n-Do Scotland Walking and Hiking Tours
33 Stirling Enterprise Park,
Stirling,
FK7 7RP
Scotland
One of Scotland's longest-established walking and winter sports organisers, this Stirling-based company has also been recognised for its commitment to sustainable tourism. Although well known for organising longer activity holidays in the Grampians, the…
Clive Ramsay
28 Henderson Street, Bridge of Allan,
Stirling,
FK9 4HR
Scotland
This popular deli is visited by customers from miles around and wins out over lesser delis because as well as a huge collection of foods from Britain and around the world it sells fantastic fresh fruit and vegetables some of which are attractively…
Corrieri's
7 Alloa Road,
Stirling,
FK9 5LH
Scotland
From the outside Corrieri's looks like a not particularly prepossessing chip shop or ice cream parlour. But walk in and keep going and you will find Stirling's jolliest Italian restaurant where they will feed you chips and ice cream if that is what you…
Glengoyne Distillery
Dumgoyne,
Stirling,
G63 9LB
Scotland
Glengoyne is one of Scotland’s prettiest distilleries, a whitewashed beacon nestling under the Campsies that, behind its main buildings, hides a 50ft waterfall. There’s a range of tours for different levels of interest and expertise –- you can try…
The Rising Sun
6 New Street,
Stirling,
FK9 4NZ
Scotland
There’s a self-confidence in the Rising Sun that you’ll not find in the more ersatz traditional bars. It’s a rare adherent to old-style opening times - closing mid-afternoon except for Saturdays so that everything is made spick and span - and culinary…
Stirling Folk Club
Stirling County Rugby Football Club Bridgehaugh Park Causewayhead Road,
Stirling,
FK9 5AP
Scotland
Allan Water Café
15 Henderson Street, Bridge of Allan,
Stirling,
FK9 4HN
Scotland
The spacious family-run Allan Water Café has a good homely feel and despite being in land-locked Bridge of Allan also has something of an all-day seaside café vibe. Floor to ceiling windows upstairs and down give excellent views of the to-ings and…
Beanscene
40 King Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1AY
Beanscene positively encourages you to while away the best part of the day indoors. You can bring your own bottle and have a game of backgammon, chess or Scrabble. Black-and-white photos of film stars pepper the walls and windows in the high ceilings…
Callander Meadows
24 Main Street,
Callander,
Stirlingshire,
FK17 8BB
With a commitment to fine, locally-sourced produce and no-frills cookery, Callander Meadows is helping its parent town shed a reputation for culinary misdemeanours. Situated in a handsome old town house that was, in a previous life, one of Callander's…
Cambio
1 Corn Exchange,
Stirling,
FK8 2HX
Scotland
Steer clear if you’re not a sports nut, as Cambio ensures it takes advantage of what it claims is the biggest TV screen in Stirling. There are other reasons to visit: there’s plenty of space to spread out during the day and enjoy the unpretentious bar…
Europa Music
10 Friars Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1HA
Scotland
For its stubborn resistance to high-street uniformity alone, Europa deserves a visit. And, sure enough, this ramshackle emporium attracts collectors from as far as Greece and Russia, most in search of vintage vinyl in the hut out back that nestles…
Gleneagles Activity School
Auchterarder,
Stirling,
PH3 1NE
Scotland
Expert tuition amid five-star luxury comes at a price –- you’d better be sure that your fishing ambitions are not an idle whim when it costs at least £80 to try and catch a trout. Other activities include shooting, archery, air rifle and horse-riding.
Hermann's
Mar Place House,
Stirling,
FK8 1NQ
Scotland
Hermann is not, in this instance, a German, but an Austrian and this place with its interior confection of tartan carpets and Tyrolean posters would never be mistaken for anything other than a restaurant set up by an Austrian in a Scottish tourist trap.
Nick Nairn Cook School
Port of Menteith,
Stirling,
FK8 3JZ
Scotland
Only the cook school’s discreet flame motif gives away the entrance to this foodie fun palace off the B8034. The kitchens and display area are modern and bright and the atmosphere at all times is friendly and relaxed. Most of the fresh produce used in…
Tartan Arms
43-45 Main Street,
Stirling,
FK7 8LX
Scotland
The romantic allure of Bannockburn’s history isn’t evident on a drive past tired-looking blocks of flats into the town itself. But those in the know keep coming back to the snug confines of the Tartan Arms and its restaurant, McQ’s. Fools aren’t…
The Yard
6 Back Walk Terrace,
Stirling,
FK8 2QA
Scotland
A sleek, mirror-dominated refurbishment has given the Yard a veneer of class, but this is a place for unpretentious, boisterous good times. Ostensibly it’s just a bar, with no door charge and a closing time of just 1am at weekends. But with a populist…
Clive Ramsay Cafe and Restaurant
28 Henderson Street, Bridge of Allan,
Stirling,
FK7 9HR
Scotland
A welcome addition to the popular deli next door, the restaurant serves café, pre-theatre and dinner menus and is a good place to sit and watch affluent Bridge of Allan-ites go by. The coffee is strong and the all-day proper food is deservedly popular.
Katrinewheelz
Trossachs Pier, Loch Katrine,
Stirling,
FK17 8HZ
Scotland
A tarmac roadway from the Trossachs pier to Stronachlachar, 12 miles away at the west end of Loch Katrine, ensures that a day of cycling here is suitable even for those who haven’t been near a bike since dispensing with stabilisers. And if you don’t…
Nicky Tam's Bar Bothy
29 Baker Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1BJ
Scotland
Rowdy good times rather than pristine cool are the deal at Nicky Tam’s Bar Bothy. On some nights you compete for already limited space with live bands, who push cosiness to its limits by cramming onto a stage that might interest the *3Guinness Book of…
Park Lodge Hotel
32 Park Terrace,
Stirling,
FK8 2JS
Scotland
The pretty entrance to the Park Lodge, all ivy-clad walls and Georgian columns, hide the real treats of this refined, family-run hotel. There’s a fine, if rather expensive, restaurant of unfussy French classics hinting at the Marquetty family’s roots on…
Rainbow's End
Main Street, Aberfoyle,
Stirling,
FK8 3UG
Scotland
A proper old fashioned sweetie shop complete with jars and an assistant of indeterminate age who could tell you a story about every variety of sweet in the place. Modern sweets are in evidence too but don’t go looking for posh chocs – a fried breakfast…
SS Sir Walter Scott
Trossachs Pier, Loch Katrine,
Stirling,
FK17 8HZ
Scotland
The stately Victorian passenger steamer Sir Walter Scott has been making leisurely trips from Trossachs Pier across Loch Katrine for more than a century. Ellen’s Isle, a more modern 20-seat passenger boat, is less romantic but ensures that visitors can…
National Wallace Monument
The Abbey Craig,
Stirling,
FK9 5LF
Scotland
You’ve seen the film, now visit the monument, see Wallace’s broadsword, look at the views and let the computer-generated face on the Wallace figure in one of the three chambers in the monument tell you the story of his vanquishing the English. You might…
Whistlebinkies
73/75 St Mary's Wynd,
Stirling,
FK8 1BU
Scotland
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…
Aura
51 King Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1DN
Scotland
Aura has two distinct identities. For the most part, it’s a bar-diner in a restrained setting that favours tasteful art over transatlantic paraphernalia. Freshly made North American deli-style fare pulls in crowds during the day, while staff are relaxed…
The Fotheringham Gallery
78 Henderson Street,
Stirling,
FK9 4HS
Scotland
Established by sisters Claire and Leigh Fotheringham in 1997, this gallery is a step above what you'll typically find in rural Scottish towns. Its collections are more interesting than many commercial galleries found in Edinburgh and Glasgow. Leigh's…
Green Gallery
Main Street, Aberfoyle,
Stirling,
FK8 3UG
Scotland
In a High Street full of fairly predictable Scottish tourist toon shops the Green Gallery is an oasis of space and style. If you do find a sheep in here you can be sure it won’t be wearing a tartan bonnet and it will be wearing a more exalted price tag…
Old Town Jail
St John Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1EA
Scotland
A visitor attraction staffed mainly by actors in character might sound avoidable but for history made palatable by human interest Stirling Old Town Jail is unbeatable. Try out pointless hard labour for yourself on a real crank and marvel at the…
Stirling Highland Hotel
Spittal Street,
Stirling,
FK8 1DU
Scotland
This 19th century former school is a favourite among wannabe Scots lairds from across the pond, with its impressive fireplaces and oak beams, while a working observatory is among the diverting reminders of the building’s pedagogical beginnings. A health…
The Village Tea Room
Main Street, Buchlyvie,
Stirling,
FK8 3LX
Scotland
A tea room with a gallery and post office attached may sound like something from the imaginations of the scriptwriters of Monarch Of The Glen but The Village Tea Room in Buchlyvie is real. If you don’t feel moved to buy a picture of a golf course by…
Westerton Arms
Baker Street,
Stirling,
FK9 4HR
Scotland
The exposed stone walls and hidden corners of the Westerton Arms give it charm aplenty, and it maintains a proud reputation as a family-friendly pub. Children are licensed until 8pm and it’s often packed to the (genuine) rafters with locals returning…
