Puddingstone Place

Visit on 30.05.26. Staff member was very attentive and friendly. Scampi and maccaroni ordered and both were great. We even got to sit out the back as it was a warm day (unusual in Scotland)

My lunch (which was a special of tender, moist, and flavorful roast turkey, herbed stuffing, fried and roasted baby golden potatoes, and assorted veg - some fried sweet potato sticks, brussel sprouts, naturally sweet steamed carrots, and rotkuhl) was unbelievably good. I felt like a kid again and inhaled it - even though the portion was enormous! Well worth the trot down to the end of the Main Street. Needs to be ranked higher in reviews! The waitstaff was also lovely and I was sorry to have to leave so quickly.

Got to review the places I want to be able to find again if I'm in the area. Welcoming, warm service, which makes you feel right at home. Fair prices for pretty good food in huge portions. Haddock and chips were standout- crispy (both the fish and the chips) without being greasy. Also the biggest hand cut chips I've come across. No complaints on the creamy mushroom starter, and beef lasagna is always a safe order. The beef burger was standard- so much so that one of our party switched her burger with someone else's chicken panini. Happy to have found a great lunch stop on our way through Callander, especially as our party enjoyed it even more than the award-winning places they tried yesterday (and commented that the quality of the haddock and batter was better!) Would revisit for the fish and chips.
