About this restaurant

  • Neighborhood gem
  • Good for special occasions
  • Charming
Since taking over the venue, we have been working hard to transform the building into a truly special pub, restaurant and coffee house.

Whatever reason you may have for visiting us – a healthy or hearty breakfast, a coffee with home-baking beside our wood-burning stove or downstairs with the kids in the play area, fantastic food with family in our restaurant, a glass of wine or a local beer with friends in our bar or on the riverside terrace – we assure you of a friendly welcome from staff who care.

Please let us know when you book if you are bringing your dog and we will reserve a suitable table.

The Riverside really is our dream come true and we look forward to welcoming you through its doors.

Stuart & Jo

    Excellent service from friendly, attentive and helpful staff. The food was freshly prepared and very tasty. Good choice of meals and drinks and good value for money. The staff were very accommodating when extra family members joined us for drinks by organising a larger table. Overall a very pleasant experience and one we would hope to repeat. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to others.

    We were celebrating 2 birthdays yesterday, father and daughter with birthdays on same day. We had a lovely meal and it suited us very well. Service was very good and friendly. Makes such a difference when you have a mixed group. We were there last year for the same celebration and hope to do the same next year too!

    Great meal to celebrate our anniversary. Large plant-based menu as well as the standard meat options. Friendly staff, really tasty starter and main, decent value. Would definitely return next time we’re in Dunblane.

    Great Sunday lunch and service. Crème Brûlée was best I’ve had with a thick sugar top!
