Nothing in for dinner? Fancy dining out for lunch this weekend? Or have you something to celebrate?

Whatever your dining dilemma, we have selected the best 5 places to head out to for a meal. So whether it’s a simple bowl of soup or a three-courser, get your teeth into these…

Pop into the Pear Tree and sample its award-winning breakfast – and more!

Pear Tree Restaurant is based at Auchterhouse Country Sports. We were recently voted as Scotland’s Favourite Shooting Ground and 2nd in the UK! We were also voted for 2nd Best Breakfast in the UK!

We were taken over in February 2018 by the familiar face of Lee Whammond and his team. We are now serving breakfast, lunch, afternoon tea, high tea and dinner. We also offer a takeaway service.

Our award-winning breakfast has to be tried, so if you have not yet sampled it, or the range of food we have on offer, then come in and see us. You won’t be disappointed! But don’t just take our word for it – our customers think so too.

We are proud to have achieved a 4.5 rating out of 5 on popular online travel site, Trip Advisor. Here’s what a couple of customers think about Pear Tree:

Great breakfasts
Been there a few times recently. Excellent breakfasts and very reasonably priced. Service very good and a friendly bunch. Nice wee run out too.”

Lovely High Tea
Visited with wife and in-laws for high tea. Surrounds clean and homely- service was polite and friendly. Half portions available for the less hungry. Lasagne, pasta bake, macaroni and steak pie all excellent. Cakes and scones were homemade (or looked it) and were delicious. Unlimited tea and toast on offer. Better than other local high teas I’ve had recently in the Dundee/Birkhill area. Thank you.”
