YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED.

First impressions weren't the best.Carpark a bit rough, with untidy areas around the edges.Had to walk past a store room on the way that also looked tatty with paper and cardboard on the window.Things improved on entering the restaurant. Clean, tidy and nicely decorated.Strange way of getting a table. As signage was not in view in entering the building. A busy waitress told us to come in. In a friendly manor. As we walked forward the bar came into view and a sign saying wait here to be seated. Ah that's better, but they need something at the door. Headed for bar and the same waitress said someone (she did mention a name, but I don't remember what it was) would be with us shortly. We didn't wait long. The girl asked how she could help. Table for two we asked for. She had a look in a diary I assumed, wrote something down and said this way please. I felt a bit uncomfortable as she never said anything until that point. Felt like she was going to say, sorry we don't have any.She showed us to a table, picking up Menus on the way, asked us to fill in a Covid locator form and asked if we would like to order drinks.I ordered a pint of diet cola. The waitress said we only have cans. So it would be two cans to make a large drink. I agreed, however if I had realised it would be over £5 for two cans then I would certainly only had the one. This in my opinion is very expensive.I ordered the Woodsman burger which sounded nice from the description.The menu probably had something for everyone, however the choice was a wee bit limited.We waited a reasonable amount of time on the food coming and the waitress was good at making sure you were happy.The food its self was excellent, which is obviously the most important point here and why the restaurant gets 4 stars. A wee bit more attention to detail and I'm sure they would score 5. Well done a good meal.

Stop! The building looks unimpressive BUT it's lovely inside and the food superb. Wonderfully set in the Ochils it has a caravan park next door. Soup, salad, pie ...all great.

Lovely meal 🏵️ and in very pleasant surroundings .staff were great and service was excellent .what a great find of a lovely campsite with views to die for and the icing on the cake a restaurant on your doorstep .will most certainly be back

Really had a good time staff really looked after us. The food was very tasty, presented and good portions. Lucky we only live 30 mins away , recommend

This is the first time I have eaten at this restaurant. I am not local to Scotland and was visiting a friend. The restaurant itself was lovely. Some restaurants try and cram as many tables as they can in an area but this was nicely spaced out. Felt relaxed as we ate. The food was amazing. Best food I have tasted for a while. The staff were polite and friendly and started a conversation with us. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!Edit... 25th August 2019. I have now been here twice. Second time round was just as pleasant as the first. They had a new young lad working there. Didnt catch his name but he had ginger hair. He was very helpful and polite with us. I was being fussy and didnt want my steak to arrive on a cast iron skillet and he checked with the kitchen for me to see if it was fine to have it on a normal plate (it was). The steak was beautiful. Wouldnt say it was worth £20 but I enjoyed it.

Lovely ambiance and freshly prepared tasty food.I'm giving 4 stars as the menu lacks variety for vegetarian and vegan customers. There are dishes which can be prepared vegetarian, like the very generous Ploughman's platter I had, and if you plan your visit ahead, you can speak to the kitchen about providing a vegan dish. It just feels that overall, a restaurant at that price level should look into having a dedicated veg/vegan menu.Service was friendly and prompt (even though our drink order was mixed up during this visit, but no biggie), and the overall atmosphere is welcoming.£££

Excellent loverly food very good service highly recommended Balmoral Chicken and Lamb shank.... nom nom

We booked a table at The Woodsman for our first meal out after lockdown during the Eat Out to Help Out campaign. The staff were friendly and explained all the rules in place. Tables were well spaced out within the restaurant. We had the mozzarella sticks and haggis to start, steak and veggie burger for main and waffles and cheesecake for desert. The portions were large and the food tasted great!
