The Lade Inn - Stirling

Smashing pub, great food a very warm welcome too. Thanks for a very tasty Sunday lunch and for welcoming our two dogs!

We popped in here for a wee drink mid way through our walk. What a great stop !!!!!. Traditional 'old man 's ' Scottish pub feel with the open fire burning away, traditional Scottish music in the background and a good selection of Scottish ale 's. Staff were amazing, welcoming and friendly. Thank you x

Lovely, snug little bar area kept warm by a lovely fire which the wonderful staff kept restocking. Wish we had visited earlier, not on our last afternoon. Nice end to the week anyway thank you.

Very nice people, excellent food, beautiful live music in the weekends, A place you feel home and want to go back!

Worst Pint ever! Couldn’t drink it! Used to visit this pub and also buy beer from the shop years ago when we lived nearby and it was fantastic. Sadly no longer. My husband had a pint of Waylade which was very cloudy and apparently tasted pretty awful. He complained to the waitress who said to the barman and relayed back that it was always cloudy! He couldn’t drink it! We waited ages for food as did the other customers despite it being quiet and then my husband’s prawn baguette was less appetising than one from Greggs and had no garnish, salad or finesse. The waitress did try to help with gluten information and options and I settled for a burger with a GF bun but it came as exactly that no butter, no sauce, no garnish. I declined the offer of boiled potatoes instead of chips and asked for a small cup of soup instead which she obligingly got after some deliberation hence the one star). When I went to pay I took the beer and explained that my husband found it undrinkable and the barman just shrugged and presented me with the card machine!!! If we hadn’t walked from Callander, we would have left after the drinks and I wish we had and just remembered how great it used to be! I almost never leave bad reviews and we had great meals out while in Callander fir 9 days but sadly not here and will never return or recommend this place as we had done previously.
