  Excellent meal. Quirky setting with a lovely riverside church conversion. Will return as only 40 mins from home

  Mostly good, but portion size on the small side and overpriced.

Haddock and chips - fish was very nice but chips pale and soft, not remotely crispy. Salad leaves... read more were just that, undressed green and some not so fresh. At £16.95!

Other dish was a special of John Dory with purple potatoes and mushroom. This was a nice dish however portion of fish was very small as a main course. £22.50 which would be reasonable had the portion been a little more generous.

Couldn't fault dessert and service was fine. Probably wouldn't make a return visit.

  Managed to get in for an evening meal at the last minute. Had a few drinks in the bar area which is a very pleasant and relaxing area.
The... read more staff were very friendly and attentive and answered all of our questions regarding the menu. Every aspect of our meal was delicious and it was hard to actually decide what to have as it all sounded amazing.
We will definitely return when in the area.

  Fabulous seafood in a fabulous atmosphere. This converted church provides a 1st class atmosphere to dine. The comfortable surroundings and attentive staff, add to the high quality food on offer.... read more The owner/head chef came to all
The tables to speak to his guests to make sure we were all happy, a nice touch. There are a couple of non fish dishes, but if your not a fishy person look elsewhere. For us, we love seafood so this is a “Little” piece
of heaven. Well worth another visit soon.

  Went for dinner here last week on the recommendation of our hotel owner. Place is a converted church done very well. Lighting was a bit bright for my liking but... read more didn’t detract from the ambiance. They were not very busy so we were able to mix and Nat h a little from the menu. We had lobster risotto and mussels with fries and the food was fabulous. Great choice of dishes on the menu and service was good and relaxed. Go there if you are in the area.

Food was excellent, as was the service, all unhurried and unobtrusive. Restaurant and toilets very clean and well appointed, also with car parking and a separate bar area for drinks or bar lunches if you don’t fancy a meal. We’ll be back very soon!

Food was delicious, I would recommend although I personally wouldn't go again

  The location, in a converted church is beautifully done, much like the food.
We had Pigeon Breast with Black Pudding and Baked Crab Gratin to start. Followed by Scallops and... read more Lobster Risotto and Prawn and Monkfish Pasta. They were all to die for but the portions were not large so we shared an Elton Mess (which was easily enough for 2).

Finding a superb seafood restaurant in Blairgowrie was a lovely surprise. But you do need to book, we went on a Thursday evening and we could only get an early table at 6:30.

  I'd been iffy about Littles since a disappointing experience a few years back. We finally tried the new restaurant and found we have been missing out. The new building has... read more been converted really tastefully. The food is really good starting with the pre starter nibbles. Very busy, so not fast, but really worth it.

  We were driving between the castles and abbeys, and felt like Blairgowrie was our best bet for a good lunch, and ended up at Little's. Housed in an old church,... read more the vibe is rather interesting. The stained glass window is really nice, but when we were there it was mostly empty, so a little disconcerting. Overall, our meal was really solid, not amazing, but I felt it was very good for where we were. The calamari was just calamari, but I will say that the stuffed crab and the pigeon breast were both spectacular, and highly recommended. The net is, if you are in the area when it's time for lunch/dinner, you will not be disappointed at Little's.

  First time out here and loved it. A great selection of well-prepared meals. Nice atmosphere and at a good price. We will be back with our family.

  Little;s restaurant offers good quality, interesting food - mainly fish, but with some meat options as well. In addition to the menu there was an extensive specials board. The fish... read more dishes all offered something new and appealing - we could have chosen several dishes all of which caught (!) our eye. The service was prompt and friendly without being excessive or intruding. The venue (a converted church) was really well done, keeping many of the original features, and was warm as well!

  Carefully prepared dishes with fresh ingredients and sometimes surprising taste combinations. Professional and friendly service

  Went for a wee meal, but fell for the exciting menu. Ordered halibut, monkfish ao. So nice serverings and tastefull dishes. Presented lovely. Deserts are very good and the surroundings... read more I this old church is magnificent. We will be back this restaurant should be on rge Michelin guide.

  Had dinner in Little's on a family holiday. Three generations to please. The church is simply decorated and has plenty of atmosphere without being noisy. There was music playing in... read more the background when we arrived but when they place started to fill up this was either switched off or I just stopped noticing.
The list of specials on the blackboard was nearly as long as the menu. Lots of fish dishes, of course, but also steaks, pizzas and veggie options. They were also happy to adapt dishes for non-meat eaters.
My main was Halibut which was plump, firm and fresh and delicious. My wife's scallops were enormous and, she says, perfect.
We barely had space for pudding but I managed to squeeze in a sticky toffe pudding, which was very nice.
Service was prompt, helpful and friendly and we left feeling well-fed and well looked-after.
We will certainly be back when we are next in the area.

  My boyfriend and I were treated to a meal here by our friends who had been raving about the place! We could not fault the whole experience, from service to... read more cleanliness the place was wonderful. The food was all delicious and fresh and it was clear that a lot of thought and imagination had gone into the specials menus for every course. There was something for everyone! The wine list had a lot of choice and the house gin was lovely! Every course was gorgeous however the chocolate and ginger tart stole the show!! The setting is absolutely stunning however that goes without saying! 10/10, would definitely recommend and will certainly be back.

This is one a very special place! Thank you so much from us

  Couple of 4 going for dinner. Service was ok - however I think they could up their game. Food alright nothing to shout about, and the wine prices ridiculously high.... read more Would we go back? Unlikely.

  Focus largely on seafood although there are pizzas and meat dishes too. Set in a converted church it’s popular with locals and visitors. Friendly staff and service. Food was excellent,... read more we all enjoyed our dishes which included fish&chips, seafood linguini, sole fillets and tuna. All good.

  Food was excellent, the staff were very courteous and the menu was varied,
however if you are looking for service with a timeframe then this is not the place to... read more visit, the speed of service lets the experience down which is a shame.

  We dined at Littles last night, the restaurant was full. The surroundings are magnificent, the quality of the food is excellent, the staff are friendly but not plentiful. We felt... read more sorry for the young girls running from table to table, trying their best to keep up with orders. We don’t mind waiting a little when a restaurant is busy but to wait for over 45 minutes for a dessert menu is unacceptable in a restaurant of this stature.

Staff are friendly, smartly dressed, helpful and attentive.

Food is exquisite, thoughtfully constructed, tasted just perfect, as you would expect from a fish shop owner selection is first class, persuaded ourself to try something different and was not disappointed, fish was full of flavour and beautifully presented.

Cannot comment on steaks, they are available but why go here if you are not a fish fan. We had sampler starter, delicious. Skate wings were excellent too.

Decent wine list, something for all tastes at reasonable prices for the quality. this standard of food deserves a good bottle of wine!

Easy parking, but we lunched on a Thursday probably very busy in evenings and weekend.

  Nice food served in this establishment
Lacked atmosphere as premises were very quiet on our visit of 8 persons
Due to all dishes being individually prepared, menu is quite... read more restricted in variety
Quality of food was good however quantity would leave a hungry diner looking for more
Tuna was very undercooked as seems to be the fashion of modern chefs
4 scallops in a main course would be more appropriate quantity wise as a starter
Overall quite enjoyable but wine expensive and what is on the menu results in an expensive bill.
Think there are better restaurants offering far better value for money in the vicinity

  We were so attracted to the lovely place of worship turned into a beautifully run restaurant that we went twice on the same day. Lunch and dinner. There was nothing... read more one could fault, the food was fresh, well cooked with fine ingredients. Top notch friendly staff.

  While the exterior invites you into something special, the interior was extremely plain and rather blase.

We heard worldwide travelers come to Blairgowrie to dine at this restaurant... read more but after experiencing it, we don't understand why. Service was so-so perhaps because one server also seemed to be the cashier and hostess, and the other was not attentive or pleasant at all. While nicely presented, the actual food was nothing special. My wife had scallops, correction "scallop" and monkfish. I ended up with a decent pizza but....pizza in a fish house? That should say enough.

If we stayed more than one night in this town we certainly would have dined elsewhere on night #2. Not worth the money for the food or dining ambience. Best part was conversing with other customers.

  What a wonderful conversion of this church building into a really attractive restaurant. The food was wonderfully prepared by a chef who clearly loves fish

  Great choice of dishes, the food was great and the service impeccable. Highly recommend going there if you're in the area.
