Seven Stills - Menu

When you have a chef that cares about food, and a hostess that care about people. you know you have a winning combination. Food was amazing compliments to the chef! And the make yourselves feel at home experience makes it all amazing. Well worth a visit.

Reservations are a must at this restaurant, where you must select your menu a few days ahead of time to allow the chef to create a top-notch dining experience. However, the effort is well worth it. The menu features impeccably fresh dishes made with locally-sourced ingredients, and each plate is meticulously crafted. The service is excellent, and the wine and drinks are reasonably priced.

The coziest, snuggest, most delicious dinner possible. Rose and Patrick have created an absolute dinner haven in Dufftown. The food is exquisite and of Patrick’s own creations. The atmosphere is welcoming, relaxing, and homey thanks to Rose’s design which includes overstuffed armchairs and a boa-d ostrich statue. If you have a chance to eat here while staying at or near Dufftown, you must do so.

We discovered this restaurant on TripAdvisor and we were pleased that we did. It felt like stepping into a cozy private club with incredible eclectic decor. The husband and wife owners made us feel like old friends by the end of our meal. The husband, who is French, is an incredible chef, while the wife, who is British, is a delight to be around. This was hands down the best dinner we had during our time in Scotland.

The best thing I can say about this restaurant is that they squeezed us in even though they were full up. We might as well not have bothered. Two of our starters were quite poor, while the mains were average, at best including the local favourite Haggis. We were promised excellent fare from a French chef, but the final output was terrible. The service was businesslike, almost bordering on rude and supercilious. And the food is not cheap.

My husband and I had the most wonderful dinner at Seven Stills on our trip to Dufftown (we live in Los Angeles)! It was perfection even better than I had anticipated. Rose and Patrick open up their home and kitchen and make you feel loved from the moment you step in through the lovely yard to the minute you leave. Rose is an incredible hostess and Patrick is your quintessential French chef. The love he puts in his food is evident and the way he talks about food is just awesome. We intend to visit Rose and Patrick every time we make it to Dufftown. We fell in love with the town and intend to be back as often as we can!

A truly unique experience made so special by Rose and Patrick. Enter through the beautifully tended back garden into this “secret” restaurant. The decor is eclectic, international and quirky but warm and inviting. Our food was some of the best in Scotland venison, haggis (yes, the best haggis we had in Scotland was prepared by a French chef! , and the partridge terrine were all spectacular. Don’t expect an effusive American friendliness, but an honest goodness and kindness. Patrick came out after the meal to explain where he shopped for his ingredients and how he lovingly prepared each dish (some of which took several days of preparation . Rose and Patrick made my husband’s sixtieth birthday...

Extraordinary place run by extraordinary couple and the food is fantastic. If you're in this beautiful part of Scotland and if you can get in, you must try Patrick and Rose's restaurant. It's tiny but I have never seen decor like it. The two of them are a double act for the small number of guests but never doubt that great food is at the heart of it. Everything is made from scratch using local fresh produce, so orders have to be 48 hours in advance. Nevertheless Rose suggested that if we were full after mains we could miss dessert. We didn't! Goats cheese and onion soup for starter, boeuf bourguignon for mains, poire belle helene and selection of French and Scottish cheeses for dessert. Boeu...

When you step into Seven Stills, you are warmly greeted into the home of Rose Patrick. Their home just happens to be a beautifully decorated bar and restaurant in the heart of Dufftown. Right from the start, you can tell that the experience is going to be beyond your expectations in the best way possible. The wine list and whiskey selection at the bar are carefully chosen and reasonably priced. The food is exceptional, from the Tajin to the Beef Bourgignon and everything in between. The ingredients are sourced with care, from Burgundy snails (escargot) to a delightful array of local and French cheeses. The locally sourced and produced ingredients shine in every dish. Come for the food, but s...
