Cafe 33 is small cafe in Bridge of Allan near Stirling and just off the A9/M9. There is enough room for around 20 people inside and more sitting on the street. We had three lattes, a chocolate cake, coffee and walnut plus a lemon cake. I advise you try these cakes and more. All homemade and very delicious. Some cakes can make you feel bloated but the cakes were very light. I highly recommend this wee cafe if you're passing by. Just have to find some parking.
We got the Scottish breakfast and it was delicious. The staff was lovely. There is a parking near the restaurant.
2/11/25 First time in Bridge of Allen, and so happy we found this little gem. I stopped in with my daughter and one year old granddaughter. The service was impeccable! So kind and friendly. Very prompt service, we had a latte, hot chocolate with marshmallows and whip cream, a scone and shortbread cookie filled with jam. Buttery, soft shortbread than melted in your mouth, just enough jam to add an extra sweetness. The scone was tender and flaky. The hot chocolate was rich with a very generous topping of marshmallow and whip cream! The young woman who was working and served us that day was so friendly and so attentive to us. If we hadn’t been with a-year-old, we would’ve stayed longer just to soak up the ambience. We left with full tummies, and decided to work off the calories by walking back to Saint Ninians instead of taking the train. Since I am visiting in Stirling, I may have to make one more visit during my trip. Definitely in my top favorites places I have visited around Stirling.
What a little gem this place is.... Opens early, friendly staff and a great full Scottish breakfast
