   Lovely, characterful place in pretty surroundings by river. Staff were very friendly, polite and attentive. Sunday roast was delicious as was the local ale. Can't recommend enough. Well done and thank you Riverside for great experience.

   Lovely flowery downstairs terrace for drinks as well as the main terrace by the river. Manager worked very hard to keep everything running smoothly but the young staff admitted to being run off their feet - a sign of the popularity of the place, as well as the good weather. Food was delicious - two of us had fish and chips, and to our relief the portions were a manageable size. Dogs are allowed in some areas of the dining room, which is a plus for dog owners. A good experience - would definitely recommend it.

   The Riverside has an absolutely fantastic location. The staff were super pros - young people who were flexible and seemed totally committed to ensuring that patrons have a good meal and visit. The food was excellent and the drinks were sublime. Would strongly recommend a meal here!

   We are in The Riverside several times during a recent holiday to Dunblane. The good weather meant we could enjoy the lovely outside seating area. Food was excellent. Service a little slow for some diners but we were in no rush so it didn’t bother us at all. Would definitely recommend

    The Riverside is the perfect place to sit outside and enjoy the fresh air, and although the night we visited it was a bit cold and rainy, the outdoor heating made all the difference and we had a really lovely dinner on the balcony. The food was excellent and the staff and atmosphere were both friendly and welcoming.

    Staff were lovely, and service was good. Food needed more seasoning, and the chicken goujons were burnt. The Scallops were nice but a little flavourless and very expensive even for scallops.

    Very good as usual. Only critisicm this time is mushy peas with haddock very dry. Asked for fresh ones. Chips were cool with the haddock and the toastie which was disappointing . I do wish staff would stop referring to customers as “ you guys!!!” We find it very disrespectful at our age as retired professional people. . I did mention it to our waitress but think staff should be told not to addrress customers like this by management. Keep that for their friends!! We like this place very much when we visit Dunblane having said that.

    We were greeted warmly on arrival and shown to our booked table straight away. We enjoyed delicious food from a varied and interesting menu - spoiled for choice. The service was efficient and friendly and the surroundings light, pleasant and comfortable. I would highly recommend this restaurant. When my husband and I had to leave suddenly due to an emergency at home, the staff couldn't have been more helpful and efficient in organising the bill instantly. A free car park in the street opposite the restaurant was a bonus.

    I had a better experience with friendlier staff at lunch time day before and food was nicer .. my meal wasn’t hot and they missed out my sauce which made it dry ! No staff about to say anything so ate it quick before it was cold ! My daughters pizza base was burnt on the bottom ! wouldn’t hurry back

    This was one of many visits to the Riverside in Dunblane which has just enhanced or view of this restaurant. As always we were greeted with curtesy and give a choice of tables. After being served a liquid refreshment, we were given time for a quick chat before being approached for our order. Both the waitresses, who dealt with us, were very cheerful and polite and had a few minutes to discuss the menu. The food as always was very good apart from one very small point - on this occasion the fry’s were over cooked on both the main courses which is unusual. We will visiting again at the end of August and are both looking forward to another good experience

    Service was excellent. It’s a lovely venue and the lovely staff kindly moved us to an outside table as soon as one came free. A bit disappointed to discover that the menu hadn’t changed since our last visit some time ago and there weren’t any specials.

    We loved this restaurant and plan to go back several times while we were here. We were late arriving from the US and got to the Riverside only 10 minutes before their kitchen closed. They continued to cook for us until we were satisfied. Very accommodating staff. Great food. Wonderful ambience.

    My fiancé and I visited here for the second time and chose to be seated outdoors - the best decision. The views of the water are like something out of a movie, good sized tables and good chairs. I got the macaroni, fiancé got the Sunday roast - wow. Great portions, genuinely delicious food, friendly attentive staff, good menu options, even a Keto bowl option which I think is really great. 10/10

    Thoroughly enjoyed our time at the riverside.The staff were friendly,the food was great.The only downside & it certainly wouldn’t stop me going again is we were seated in a booth.This was a bit awkward trying to pick my bag up from the floor etc to get bib & drinking cup etc out for 2yr old sat in highchair,trying to pick up anything that the child dropped was quite difficult.But apart from that it was a lovely experience at the riverside & we would definitely go back when in Dunblane.
