Blairgowrie Restaurant Guide

“Always a pleasure, combining excellence all round” – this luxurious, family Relais & Châteaux property (built in 1840) has long been a mainstay of the surrounding area, with its “assured cooking of quality ingredients, particularly excellent meat”.

2022 Review: Great British Bake-Off’s youngest ever contestant, Flora Shedden (then just 19) runs this artisan bakery, housed in what was a derelict 200-year-old building in the heart of the community, and recently opened another venture across the road: well worth a visit should you be passing through on your way to the Highlands…

This wood-paneled “gem” occupying a seventeenth-century building, from the husband-and-wife team of chef Andrew Moss & FOH Karen Milne, celebrates its 10th anniversary this year – the “exceptional cooking and wine list are a joy”. We’ve rated it on relatively thin feedback – more reports please.

2022 Review: This “little piece of France” – down to the terrace under a red awning along the streetfront – has earned a strong local reputation over more than a decade as a haven of classic Gallic cuisine.

2021 Review: Set up in 2007 by Slow Food aficionado Graeme Pallister, who trained at Kinloch House Hotel and the restaurant at Gleneagles, this elevated Scottish dining room, on the western banks of the Tay, remains a Perth gem that’s “exceptional value early evening”.
