Description: An award winning restaurant situated in the green and pleasant village of Causewayhead in Stirling, The Birds and The Bees is a dining room built around a passion for food. Located in an old one story whitewashed farmstead, The Birds and The Bees proudly displays its rusticity, with cartwheels on the outside walls, a choice of two beer gardens and exposed brick and open fires aplenty inside. The result is a cosy and warm, the lighting kept low and an eclectic mix of old and new decorative touches providing character and a talking point too. As an informal wine-bar and bistro, The Birds and The Bees has an informal atmosphere matched by the menu, a tempting collection of dishes both locally and internationally influenced, all using locally sourced produce wherever possible. The kitchen staff really care about the food they���re cooking, evidenced by not only the high level of flavour in their homecooked dishes but also in the careful, attractive presentation of every plate. Drink options include a great many carefully selected wines as well as excellent ales and lagers on tap.

My daughter and I stumbled upon this place when I was visiting her in April. It was a bit off the main road in a really quaint neighborhood. The atmosphere was a fantastic mix of traditional and modern as was the menu. The food was fantastic and very reasonable. The service was excellent.

I booked a table for myself, daughter and two grandchildren, aged 5 and 6. The staff were very pleasant and efficient and the food was very good, served hot and nicely presented.Very cosy and quaint surroundings and good value for money. Good children's menu to choose from and the staff were very child friendly.

A great place for a quiet drink with friends and a good place to meet. Tried the food on a few occasions and found it to be fairly average - nice enough but nothing special. Would still recommend though for a night out with friends.

This was a suggestion of our B and B hosts. Very close but off the main road where you would not normally drive past it. Good selection of food, both veggie and non veggie. Excellent value, large portions (I ordered a starter and wouldn't really have needed it but- oh well!) We went for the food but a great surprise... More

As frequent visitors of Scotland and Stirling we've had several dinners at 'The Birds and Bees'. The food is very good at a fair price. De accomodation is unique and the hosts are friendly. We visit this restaurant everytime we're in Stirling and will be doing so. Great!

The setting is great ........ and that is about it ! The service was slow , the starter arrived before the drinks and the food overall was distinctly average. It was busy, but I cannot see the attraction and will not be back

I live in Stirling but had never been to this popular restaurant. An ideal time to visit came a few weeks ago when the English contingent of my family came to visit a few weeks ago. We came or Saturday lunch before a trip to the Wallace monument. The service was impeccable from the moment we arrived to the moment... More

The Birds and the Bees Restaurant was recommended by the wonderfully knowledgable Old Tramhouse B&B owner, Alison, and it certainly lived up to her recommendation. The exterior exuded a rustic charm (reminded me of a Mexican ranch house) with whitewashed walls. The interior was warm and welcoming, and had private booths, just great for a quiet meal. It also had... More

Came here twice in during our trip to Stirling. The food was fabulous. The staff were friendly and attentive and the price was reasonable. We never felt rushed and the atmosphere was good. Really surprised how good a pub/restaurant was. Would definitely recommend
