Reviews in Stirling

We visited for lunch on 16th Dec, love ambience and meal was delicious. Will certainly be back.

Had a brilliant meal food was excellent we were a table of 8 and everyone thought the same. The service was poor the servers were so unhelpful when we asked for water it took a further twice before the brought it they weren't friendly to us at all seem unhappy nevr once asked if we wanted drinks nor if we enjoyed our dinner we have been here before and never had that staff couldnt do enough last time. We asked for our bill i came and our deposit wasnt¹ taken off they know if you book Xmas lunch you need to pay deposit so when we said to waitress she said OK I will check brought back bill with amended amout written on it no apologies we just felt bit disappointed as had such great experience last time.

A catch up with friends. As usual the food was very good. Very friendly service. I would certainly recommend.

Fabulous! Great service. Very tasty, beautifully presented food and a lovely, warm atmosphere. Very good value too. We’ll definitely be back.

Had Christmas lunch which was excellent. Food was plentiful hot and very tasty. Excellent service and not overly expensive

What a wonderful gathering made even better by a young and very attentive staff who looked after us very well. The meal was superb and all 10 of us can’t wait to return. Seriously great young people working their wee socks off to provide a truly good experience for all - well done!

What an amazing stay in a beautiful hotel. Situated in the middle of town with a car park behind which you access just before Specsavers. The hotel is beautiful inside, rooms are lovely and clean and the beds are so comfy. The staff are amazing and very helpful. Pub has a great atmosphere and the restaurant is big and beautiful. Breakfast ranges from cereal, fruit, yoghurt, hot foods. Great fry up. We booked Cronies for dinner and it was delicious abd very reasonable. I would definitely recommend this hotel. Thank you all

Excellent service and great food. All staff were helpful and friendly. Relaxed atmosphere .

Good food. Plenty of choice on the menu. Service was good. Had meals a few times and it’s always good. Will be back again.

Lunch with my Mum Warm reception from staff. Clean restaurant and tables attentive staff. Steak pie was delicious well presented good portions. The beef tenderly cooked. Comes with green beans broccoli and roast potato’s. Proper Scottish steak pie. Proper old school hospitality and restaurant. Just Great location in Stirling. Enjoyed so much thank you.

Loved the food and generous portions too. High tea is a fantastic Scottish tradition that I will be taking advantage of more frequently. We had a great time at The Golden Lion!

Table for two for dinner - good service, good food and wine. Restaurant nicely decorated for Christmas, good atmosphere. Very enjoyable evening.

Very tasty lunch - we all had the fajitas bowl! Great service - thanks

Booked online in the afternoon for a 6pm meal for 4 of us. Booking system can't be great as the people handling the actual service didn't have a note of our booking. Thankfully they had space for us. Meal and service was great, thoroughly recommend the Balmoral Chicken, and the Steak Pie. Lovely place, and the waiting staff checked in on us at various points to make sure everything was OK, and to offer drinks etc.

I booked a table for 3 for 12noon on 9/11/24. I arrived early and was met with a lovely lady who welcomed me and showed me to the table. That was such a nice start to our lunch. Everyone was so helpful and courteous. The food was delicious and I liked that someone came over to ask how the meal was as we were eating. I had steak pie (something I don't eat normally so it was a treat) . It was really tasty. My friends had fish and chips and enjoyed them although one passed comment that the batter wasn't as crisp as she would have liked. However, she ate every bit of it. Thank you to all the staff who served us and cooked the food. It was just a lovely experience.

Had lunch with friends who had never been to Golden Lion before. I have been many times and was delighted that they thought everything was great. Loved their food, the service and the ambience. They also commented on the cosy character of the hotel. I'm sure they will return...as I definitely will.

Superb food and service. All set in a lovely restaurant
