I dined here on Tuesday evening. The restaurant was quiet,but it has a lovely atmosphere. The front of house staff were very welcoming and i was warmly greeted even though i have never been here before. I chose from the main dinner menu, however i was intrigued by the soup from the 4 for £22 Board and asked if i could have it as an intermediate course. The waitress said she would enquire, the result was affirmative, I'm glad it was as it was a delicious concoction of jerusalem artichoke, crumbled black pudding and a very light lemon whip, which all tasted magically. This followed my starter of partridge with red chicory slightly acidic chick peas and burnt apple a beautiful combination and so light to begin my first foray into the cooking skills of this restaurant. My main course of lamb rump was cooked pink (yum, yum) and the char grilled celeriac cubes and sauce served with it was a pleasure to eat. My exit to the meal of a maple panna cotta with a bramble (blackberry) compote was just the way to finish off. The service throughout was unobtrusive, with a little chit chat, which again made me feel welcome, which is difficult when you are a single male of a certain age. On departure i was allowed to pop my head around the kitchen door and offer my compliments to the chefs for a wonderful meal. Long may they continue in their efforts to please the fine citizens of Perth and it will not be long till i return from 200 miles south to revel in the delights of a...

We had our wedding meal here since we weren't able to have a big reception due to COVID - It was hands down the best choice we made!!!
Comfortably held 36 of us after the ceremony. We opted for a six course taster menu with matching wine flights. Throughout the evening you could literally hear people being wowed all across the room, with every new dish and wine.
The food and a lot of the drinks were sourced locally and the chef has his own allotment so used his own produce. You could hands down taste the freshness and care put into each dish and when it's served accompanied by its own little story and brief detail on the wine, it just makes the whole evening feel that much more special!
The whole experience, start to finish, was seamless. We met to look at our budget and discuss what we wanted. Shortly after we were sent a menu for us to review - loved how everything sounded and booked. We did some table decorations but kept it minimal as the venue has a beautiful set up as it is.
The day came and they totally delivered on every front! Guests were talking about it for days and weeks after. An amazing success.
We went back for a valentine's meal and can see ourselves doing a regular drop in. Thanks so much, we've been completely...
Read moreWe had been looking forward to our visit for some weeks. The welcome was warm and friendly. The decor and ambience homely. Quality furnishings, decor and table ware - all contributed to a feeling of luxurious informal indulgence.
The tasting menu was excellent. Well balanced with a thought through progression of flavours and different proteins. The attention to detail was amazing.
From the Orkney Bere sourdough with confit garlic butter and wasabi butter through the Isle of White heritage tomato soup. It began on a very promising note. Then followed west coast sea trout, grated goose egg yolk, samphire and next was Carnoustie rare breed confit pineapple marinated pork with candied pecans, mash, heritage carrot and a jus to die for.
Dessert was a lovely cake with Aberfeldy blue berries and a lovely curd. A cheese plate with six cheeses, an extraordinary balsamic caramelised onion chutney and a selection of crackers rounded off a wonderful evening.
The wine list was expensive with a huge range of varieties from around the world.
Service was perfectly paced with a full description of each course and the opportunity to ask questions.
This was our first visit. It won't...
