… fun, enlightening, delicious and worth every penny

The Haggis Experience was fun, enlightening, delicious and worth every penny. There were eight of us around the table, and we were a mixed bunch of folk not knowing quite what to expect. Even the 2 Scots in the party learnt something new, and everyone enjoyed the meal that Stephen demonstrated and produced. It’s well worth the journey if you are on holiday, or live anywhere near Glasgow or the Trossachs, even if you are vegetarian or vegan as Stephen’s veggie haggis option was also absolutely wonderful. Highly recommend that you try it.

Wow! … one of my all time favourite things

Wow! The Haggis Experience was one of my all time favorite things about my trip to Scotland. My expectations were relatively low before arriving on the farm as experiences tend to go one way or the other.

I was happily surprised! Stephen (our incredibly kind-hearted, knowledgeable, and welcoming chef/historian/host) provided an exciting new appreciation for Scotland’s celebrated dish. From the tour of the farm to the haggis history and demonstration to the exquisite tasting, I enjoyed every moment. You’ll laugh, you’ll eat, you’ll learn - what more could you ask for? Thank you Stephen for your warm welcome and hospitality!

And, of course, for the amazing meal.

Will recommend 10/10! (I highly encourage Haggis Experience attendees to plan out travel before day of event! Opt for bus (stops in Balfron) or by personal/rental car)
