Reviews in Stirling

We very much enjoyed our lunch (first return visit since before lockdown). The food was cooked and presented to a high standard, portion sizes not too big for senior citizens - something we appreciated as we don't like wasting food! Staff very attentive, friendly, helpful and professional. I'm already looking forward to our next visit !

Have enjoyed quite a few relaxing lunches here. Have never felt rushed which is nice. Most recently enjoyed a very nice lunch during the busy "Bloody Scotland" event. Food was very good as was the service. Most enjoyable.

Lovely high tea! Highly recommended. Beautifully presented. Lovely restaurant. Friendly staff. A really nice place to spend some time having lunch.

Lovely helpful staff, good food, nice environment.

Lovely atmosphere, great food and excellent staff. A must if you’re visiting Stirling and looking for an A+ dining experience.

Was given a table right in front of the entry and when requested a different table for two was told there were none available even though several tables in the restaurant remained empty through the entirety of our dining experience. Food was fine but not something I would recommend. Service was not great, nobody came to check on us and had to wait to make requests including for the check. Had ice cream for dessert and it was served in a warm (seemingly right out of the dishwasher) glass sundae dish so it was mostly melted by the time it was delivered to the table. Training could benefit this establishment and also maybe a little common sense.

Tea in Cronies at The Golden Lion Hotel; one of the last remaining civilised activities in Stirling and the greater area. Lovely traditional interiors, calm and placid atmosphere, wonderful high tea (personal choice) options and staff who are a credit to whomever recruited and trained them in the industry. Hospitality indeed! We booked online as it was a busy Friday evening. I opted for the Mac & smoked cheese, perfection. My friend went for the steak pie, it was the quietest he'd been all day, result! Traditionmal high-tea scones with jam and cream followed by wee petit four, sadly a step too far for us both, due to the Mac and Pie before. Must remember next time.

Excellent food, service and surroundings. We really enjoyed it and will definitely be back. Excellent also to have good alcohol free options available!

Delicious food and great price, good service too!

Good choice that I booked as restaurant was busy. Food was excellent I had the steak pie. My father had the chicken breast and cheesecake for dessert which he enjoyed. Over the course we had 5 different servers, all pleasant but when we asked for bill the server forgot and continued other tasks until we had to remind him. It would have been nice to have one server to provide a more personal touch.

Fantastic food at a great price Ryan our server made it an event

6 of us came for lunch on Friday before travelling to Aberdeen for a wedding, absolutely delicious food and the staff could not do enough for us, lovely atmosphere too

Had lovely meal with friends lovely surroundings. The waiting staff needing a bit more training in my opinion. The wine bucket was literally dumped on the table with the glasses inside never experienced this in my life. Felt we were being ignored when wanting anything. Had to ask several times for water as I drink a lot when we asked for more this wasn’t brought to us. They are just mainly school kids serving so as I said maybe a bit more training. I would return as lovely place and did enjoy the food.

Steak pie was delicious and really lovely cosy decor

Party of 8 high tea. Excellent quality mains… served nice and hot. Very good service. Scones 10/10, cakes 9/10 but tray bakes 5/10. Presentation lovely

Lovely meal as always . We couldn’t fault it. Friendly helpful staff, especially Dee. Would definitely recommend.

Was in for lunch on Saturday very enjoyable food and service was excellent as usual
