Clackmannanshire, also known as 'The Wee County', is Scotland's smallest county but certainly not short of noteworthy gastropubs. The Ochil Hills that oversee this county present us the Harviestoun Brewery, the proud birthplace of cask ale staple 'Bitter & Twisted', where traditional brewing methods are still prioritised. Fife, on the 'other side of the Forth', is steeped in fishing history, which is reflected upon the plates served in its array of pubs and gastropubs. In the charming town of Anstruther, you can find The Cellar, a Michelin-starred restaurant that uses locally sourced ingredients showcasing the best of Fife, all in a charming and cosy pub-like setting. Over in St. Andrews, The Seafood Ristorante is a must-visit, especially for seafood and wine lovers. The Ship Tavern in Elie, on the other hand, is a popular pretext for hearty pub classics and warm fireside chats. All in all, these regions' culinary excellence born from their historical and geographical traits have positioned them as truly delightful gastronomical destinations for food pub and gastropub enthusiasts.
