We heard it had just reopened so we made the trip up the coast from Aberdeen. The food was amazing I had the lasagne and my husband the steak pie. Both were beautiful and good value for money. Waiting staff were also very friendly which made our visit here a 5 star. We will be back can’t recommend this restaurant enough.

Due to lockdown we have been unable to visit this restaurant as it is a fair distance from home. However, as things are returning to some sort of normality, we decided to go for lunch. To be on the safe side we booked in advance. We were seated at a window table with a fine view out to the Moray Firth. .Alas, due to the season, there was a scarcity of wildlife. I had scampi and chips whilst my wife had breaded haddock and chips. Decent portions and the scampi was really succulent. We both had chocolate cake and cream for desert. Simply delicious. It was a pleasure to revisit this restaurant as the service was still first class. Although a bit expensive, it was worth every penny and we shall certainly return.

When we arrived we were told there wasn’t a table. When we looked disappointed they decided they had a table. Same happened to a couple who came in behind us. The food was good, a little bit overpriced though. Not a great choice of alcoholic drinks, and what we asked for wasn’t available More a cafe atmosphere than a restaurant, with restaurant prices

We recently dined at Bijou by the Sea, Buckie, whilst holidaying in the area. We were all so impressed I wanted to leave a review. It was a Saturday lunch and the restaurant was perfectly packed! Plenty of diners to give it that pre covid ambiance but still safely spaced for peace of mind. The menu had a bounty of choice and all 6 of us had a truly tasty meal! We also sampled the cakes and ice creams that were equally as varied and delicious! Once suitably stuffed we had a look in the gift area of the restaurant and our children were pleased to choose a Jellycat toy; from the seaside collection which we’d never seen anywhere before. We were really pleased with our experience but the absolute best part had to be the service! Every single member of staff were so lovely and attentive it just proved that the service makes it. From arrival to departure they were all fab! Would highly recommend a visit!

We visited 3 times during our holiday in Findochty, once for coffee and delicious cake, then for a very enjoyable lunch and finally for a beautiful breakfast before our journey home.

This goes to show how popular this restaurant is.However we we were very happy with what was available. Food cooked to order. Staff were all very polite, friendly and efficient.

Our first time eating here as we are moving to the area. We ordered a takeaway of Scampi and a Beef Burger both with chips. My husband is hard to please when it comes to seafood and he said his Scampi was perfection. The burger too was beautiful and perfect one of the best burgers I have ever had and the chips are amazing. We look forward to eating here many times more in the future. Do NOT miss out on the amazing food here.

Table booked for 12 but we didn’t get our food until 1315. 3 other tables came in after us and had their meal before us. When we questioned it we were told it takes a while to warm up the lasagne (which was a special that day ). The only gluten free option is a baked potato so I would avoid if you are wheat intolerant. The food was average, staff disorganised and too long to wait especially with a 2 year old.

We were met at the door and escorted to our table by a super friendly waitress who noted our contact details and briefly outlined what was required of us to comply with their safety requirements. Really good and assuring. Service was first class. The scones were freshly baked and reasonably priced. The restaurant itself is bright and airy. It has wonderful sea views. We watched tables being cleared and cleaned and it was thorough. Again very assuring. Overall a most enjoyable experience.

So impressed with the steps that all at Bijou have taken regarding Covid safety. Felt reassured to see how they efficiently prepared each table between guests, and their polite but sensible instructions regarding the new normal in their restaurant were also reassuring. The new glass partitions strategically placed around the interior actually serve to improve the space as well as creating a safer environment ... a clever solution ... they are stylish and they serve to dampen noise and create a cosy individual space for tables, and because they are glass they still preserve the light and airy feel of the restaurant. Who knew necessity proving to be the mother of invention would also prove to enhance the already lovely interior!Oh ... and the food is still good too! I had the chicken fillets, my friend had a prawn salad, my sister had a soup and prawn sandwich combo ... all were enjoyed.

Great setting, friendly and efficient staff. Unfortunately a very long wait for three plates of soup - 35 to 40 minutes. Our soup was excellent but our friends bowl of curried cauliflower soup was not so good. Waitress apologised for the delay and said that they were a chef down at the time. Still do not understand how that explained the delay the soup coming out. In saying this we have been before and was excellent so maybe just a bad day at the office?- no charge for the curried cauliflower soup which was appreciated.

so glad we stopped at this great eatery. Good menu with lots choice, we wanted to find some local seafood and we did. Scampi and red velvet prawns , wow! Beautiful setting overlooking a super little beach.

great place to go for light lunches and snacks with lovely views across the Moray Firth. Always go here if I am in the area.

Location is a second to none, amazingly views of the sea. Food is lovely and the service is spot on. After meal can’t walk on the beach right next to restaurant.

Come here at east once a month. Food is always fantastic, great choice on menu and specials board. Friendly welcoming staff who work very hard. We were lucky enough to see the dolphins swim by on Saturday while we ate our lunch of scampi and chicken goujons.

The warmest welcome, delicious food and baking. View to die for. Great menu to suit everyone. The best bacon roll and cup of coffee ever. Been every day of our holiday and enjoyed every visit. Thank you.

Four of us had breakfast here we had booked the previous day as we we where told it gets really busy, it wasn't busy when we arrived, the place is very pleasently decorated and the view of the sea is fabulous but I'm sorry to say the breakfast was a let down, I had poached eggs on toast I requested white toast and got Brown although the eggs where ok the weren't very hot, my husbands Scottish breakfast wasn't much better and again not very hot , mums and dads were also not up to standard, We were served our drinks but the breakfast took a while and we had drank our drinks and I appreciate it may be cooked fresh but they were not overly busy and the place and staff are lovely.We didn't send it back as we had a long journey in front of us so just ate what we could.

5 friends having a lunchtime snack.. We all opted for the Cullen skink and half sandwich. All had tea. Clean and lovely view over the sea. Service helpful and efficient. Given adequate time to make our choices. Good selection on lunch menu. Also good selection of cakes. Error made with our order was quickly corrected.

It was hot, we were out sightseeing all day and we were thirsty when we saw Bijou by the sea. However, they were closed and busy cashing up. When they heard we needed something to drink, Maree came running out to the parking lot and took our order. Karen helped counting out our change as we are from South Africa and not accustomed to the coins. Meanwhile Kate rushed back to the restaurant to get our drinks. Thanks ladies, for excellent service after hours - you saved us there and we really appreciate it. Keep up the good work!

As recommended to us by the chap in the whisky shop, we went here as a family. Kids well chuffed with their pizza and our fish n chips was great. Canadian host was very attentive without being in your face. Altogether we felt like we'd eaten like kings at reasonable prices. And the homemade puddings were amazing too.

Mi hijo y yo estábamos visitando para el día y tropezamos con esta pequeña cafetería. El desayuno todo el día en dos tamaños y probamos las versiones más pequeñas. (las más grandes deben ser enorme), el servicio era rápido y acogedor. queríamos dejar de algunos ingredientes y el chef salió a ver si queríamos hacer cualquier sustituciones, que me pareció que era un buen toque. La comida estaba bien preparado y muy sabroso. Sin duda, volveríamos a este hotel.
