Welcome to the Brig o’ Turk Tearoom, a quaint 1920’s wooden tearoom who celebrated its centenary in 2023. Whilst iconic in its own right, the tearoom also claims fame for being used as a set in the 1950’s remake of the film The 39 Steps.
As keen outdoor enthusiasts our vision for the tearoom is to make it a place we would want to go to, after a decent day on the hills. Thus, the tearoom is dog and muddy boot friendly, although soggy bottoms are not allowed on the good chairs! The menu boasts a range of hearty homemade vegetarian food, as well as a good selection of cakes and enormous scones that will help you refuel for whatever activities you have planned next. Equally, the ambience of the tearoom is welcoming enough for those who want to sit and relax midst a day trip or to nestle down with a book when the weather outside is not inviting.

We are a vegetarian cafe that bakes our own scones, cakes, traybakes and soda bread in house, with many vegan and gluten-free options included.
The Brig O’Turk is situated in the heart of The Trossachs. Whilst it is only around five miles away from Aberfoyle and Callander (on either end of the road!), the surrounding hills and lochs provides a sense of remote Scottish countryside that really entices you to the village.
This has recently had an "upgrade" and looks fresh and modern inside with some outside seating as well. It was really busy when we called in, but the staff are friendly and hard-working. There are some nice walks in the vicinity and it's well worth stopping here if you have some time to spend.
