10/06/2020Was recommended to come here by the Perthshire dog page on Facebook and so glad we visited! First time we had 3 courses and needed rolled out the door. The... read more portion sizes are very generous- even the smaller size and the food is of great quality. The staff were very friendly and couldn’t do enough for you. Mum and I visited with our two dogs and couldn’t have been made to feel more welcome. We returned the next day for lunch and again the same great service and food. If you’re in the area it’s definitely worth a visit but call to book as it’s very popular.

8/26/2020Just out of lockdown and in the company of a party of some my wife's Yorkshire relations, we were nine in total and felt that the Tavern in the lovely... read more village of Ardler would suit everyone's taste in country fare and hospitality ... and our plans bore fruit. On arrival we were warmly welcomed by the hosts and their staff who bent over backwards to satisfy the nine different combinations our palates required. There is an extensive menu and, clearly, both cheffing and service staff there with full capability for handling this and the other diners they had attracted to their enterprise. Everybody's a winner in such splendid company ... and thanks were due to the silly incumbent Chancellor, who, once more, footed half the bill ... we toasted him anyway.
