Our Story

A passion for authenticity.  Nostalgia for heritage, and recipes that have been passed down and held dear.  Ingredients sourced from the Isles, and from local farmers.

Welcome to Balmoral Restaurant.  Grand Scottish Fare as you’ve never experienced before.

The Fare

Hadrian’s Wall duck breast. Auld Lang Syne mushroom ribeye. Campsie Glen chicken. Chilled shrimp and watermelon with goat’s cheese under a honey drizzle. Deviled eggs with avocado and jalepeno. Highlander’s cock-a-leekie soup. Great Granny’s braised rabbit pie. Gleneagle’s rack of venison. Perthshire’s pleasant peasant’s pheasant. And oh, so much more. Come taste for yourself!

The Bevvy

Scotch whisky imported from the mainland. Fine rum, brandy and liqueur.  Beer brewed with heather, myrtle and other bittering herbs, in keeping with ancient Scottish tradition. A superb and extensive list of wines, sourced from the four corners of the globe. One shall not go parched at Balmoral.

Lush, dark Scottish wood tones greet you upon entering Balmoral Restaurant. A deep-set coffered ceiling hides recessed lighting, designed to light your table elegantly and exclusively, providing just the right mood. Scottish designs surround you, from the tartan carpet, to wrought iron fixtures, to the swords and shields of lore, to wall murals that evoke the placid Scottish countryside.  At Balmoral – on the western edge of St. Charles, Illinois – we bring the incomparable splendor of Scotland to you.
