Great locally sourced food. Puts the other restaurant in the area
we had dinner at to shame. Just book in advance to avoid
disappointment.

Everything from the decor to the service was first class. It has a
wonderful ambience and the food was absolutely outstanding. One of the
best meals we have had in the UK. A real find.

Definitely in top 3 meals ever ... Anna is the perfect hostess - a
warm and friendly welcome. Tim is an amazing chef - choosing complex
and subtle flavour combinations that I would not have thought of (and
doing it well). Went to the 5-course wine tasting dinner and fell in
love with ham hock and foie gras terrine with pickled girolles with
superb accompanying NZ riesling. Followed by a particularly delicate
crab salad with tomato consomme and a very simple yet effective shaved
& dried tomato slice. The 5-course dinner was accompanied by a
specially selected wine for every course (with a tutored tasting),
coffee and (if you were still hungry?!) home-made chocolates. If you
love good food, then give Anna and Tim's place a try - a 10 minute trip
from Perth and very accessible from the motorway.

Secret gem - don't tell anyone! .....The guinea fowl was tender,
the lentils and the summer vegetables were all done to indivdual
perfection. My glass of red wine, recommended by Anna, was a perfect
companion. When it comes to desserts, once I have spotted chocolate on
the menu, that's me with tunnel vision. However, I chose the Pear Tarte
Tatin as I wanted to be more open minded. As the recent newspaper
review said, the chef's pastry is divine. ....No where within a 15 mile
radius will you find food like this, certainly not in Perth. Think the
next place would be the Michelin starred Andrew Fairlie's at
Gleneagles. However, please keep this a secret as I may not be able to
get a table the next time.

Had an excellent lunch here on 16th June. The Potted Wild Rabbit
was delicous as were the Duck and Lentil salad and Smoked Salmon
sandwich. .... the staff were very friendly and attentive. Our
compliments to the chef.

Superb food and perfect relaxed service. This restaurant is
perfect for a dinner for two or a party of 8. Great food and reasonably
priced wine. Friendly service which reflects that they care about their
customers. You will not be dissappointed.

Popped in for lunch with my elderly parents yesterday. Staff were
very friendly and helpful, disabled facilities available. Service and
food excellent. Food fresh, beautifully cooked and presented and cakes
and coffee also delicious. I recommend it! Irene Fleming, 52, United

Another truly wonderful fine dining experience at The Roost, a jewel in
the crown of Perthshire restaurants. Lindsay Bell, 51, United
Kingdom.
14 April 2010 The recent Wine Tasting Dinner was a master piece
for both food and wine. The Roost is a gem that sits at the very top of
Perth eateries. Mike Beale, 63, United Kingdom

THE ROOST Kintillo, Bridge of Earn, Perthshire, Scotland I love good
food...especially when the chef knows how to blend the best local
produce, fowl, fish, and beef into fine meals. My visit to Perth was
enriched by a dinner at The Roost where I savored the plaice fillets
with langoustines upon a bed of home-made vermicelli pasta. My spouse
was won over by the butternut squash soup and braised pork cheeks that
included a splendid mash with savoy cabbage. Glad we left room for
dessert....we shared the warm chocolate fondant with white chocolate
sorbet and poached rhubarb. Just the right balance of flavors that left
us wishing there was one more bite. Wine list was well priced and
service most gracious. Hope my travels bring me back soon again.

Stopped at The Roost at Bridge of Earn for coffee and cake . Great
selection of cakes and sweets and good coffee. The festive menu is very
tempting, I wish we had been staying for dinner. The owners are very
friendly too. Will be back!
