Glentrool Visitor Centre
"This is a tranquil spot at the heart of the forest. Unwind in the café and watch woodland birds busy on the feeders or discover the lively waters that meet at stunning Loch Trool on scenic trails beneath the mighty Merrick. This area's history is also written into the landscape – look out for Bruce's Stone nearby, overlooking the Battle of Glen Trool in 1307, and a moving monument to 17th century covenanters, slain for their religious beliefs.Glentrool is also one of the world-famous 7stanes mountain bike trail centres, with a range of trails for novice and experienced riders."

Small cafe at visitor centre that serves lovely food. We opted for potato and leek soup which came with warm baguette. Two homemade scones to take away. Great wks through forest from carpark. Well posted. Carpark is change or via RingGo parking app. Well worth a visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNot sure
Small cafe with indoor and outdoor seating. Good range of lunch options and cakes n coffee. We had Leek n potato soup which came with half a baguette. Really nice and for a fiver, was good value. There was a small shelf area with a good variety of merchandise and local maps at affordable prices. Located close to a car park and river and local walks and mountain bike trails. You'll need coins for the car park.
Friendly staff but as a vegan there wasn't anything I could order in the cafe other than a coffee with oat milk, so had to do without lunch. Simple changes could enable them to offer vegan options, such as having baked beans available with the jacket potatoes, purchasing small amounts of grated vegan cheese alternatives and freezing them and having a plant based butter. It doesn't require big changes, just a little thought
We had the haggis, cheese, salad and a tuna mayonnaise jacket potato. Enjoyed all of it. Service friendly. With 2 teas it was £19.25Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo wait
Lovely place plenty of parking nice Cafe plenty of trails to explore. Loch trool beautiful place.
Beautiful walk from the visitors centre up to Loch Trool. Shame the circular walk is closed at the moment but it didn't spoil our day. Cafe/shop/toilets at the visitors centre car park were clean. Staff were very friendly and the food looked good. We just had an ice- cream. Well worth a visit.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Great little cafe with lovely coffee and cakes. Perfect to go with the walks around Glentrool, which are stunning. Highly recommended as not difficult at all, but still good exercise and ideal for dogs.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
Great little visitor centre and cafe. Food very good and reasonably priced. Can take your dog into the cafe as long as it's on its leash. And they have free dig treats. Great location to start a walk to Loch Trool.
Abaolutely lovely little visitor centre and cafe. Like a little log cabin they make reasonably priced sandwiches, toasties and jacket potatoes. Coffee was very nice and they have bird feeders by the window so you can enjoy the wildlife. Car park was £2.50 for 3 hours which is not bad at all as it is the starting point for a good few walks including to Bruce's stone. The ladies serving and making the food were a delight, friendly and quick service. Highly recommend this place.
Great cafe with a good range of classic cafe food. Nice seating area overlooking the river and a very active bird table. Wee shop of local guide books and maps and some interesting information on the walls about a variety of local places. Good starting point for biking and walking. It does cost to park here but easy to pay via Ring Go.Visited onWeekdayWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedNo
