Cafe Canna in Highland

We visited Canna for a couple of nights in September during glorious weather. We'd only planned one meal at Cafe Canna. but we stopped in for lunch after disembarking the ferry the food was so magnificent we were back for lunch every day. The seafood platter is amazing, so fresh and superbly cooked and everyone is so friendly. It's worth the journey to Canna just for the cafe, we will be back!

Amazing wee place on an beautiful wee island. Popped in for a coffee, and cake, and my phone/card wouldn't work....the lovely guy, Gareth?, gave me a free coffee - I eventually got it working and paid for my coffee and delicious cake. Thank you Gareth

Amazing find….best menu and food I have seen for ages despite being in the furthest Hebrides, lovely team running it and definitely worth a visit….or maybe several!

Fabulous! Most especially the staff! Visited for coffee, afternoon tea and dinner…. Totally delicious except for the tea- you need a decent tea bag chaps … but good (langoustines) and service absolutely top notch!

Sailed to Canna with friends partly with visiting this place in mind. It did not disappoint! Food excellent as was the atmosphere and service.I hope to have the chance to visit again.

We had a fabulous evening meal at Cafe Canna. The food was superb and the service was great. Much of the food was locally sourced. Sitting outside looking across the bay we had lunch a couple of days later which was great as well.

This is a very small, cafe style with a restaurant menu for dinner; more like a cafe for lunch. We had dinner, the highlight being the Bourride, a seafood stew, amazing. Prices are a little high for the food but very reasonable for the drinks so balances out. Service excellent. You will be very, very lucky if you get in for dinner without a booking. Lunch no problem. Views fantastic. If the weather was warm enough to sit outside it would double the capacity, but not this June!

Excellent Restaurant in a lovely location. Small , casual, friendly and excellent food, especially the seafood and fish. We went as a family group of 6 adults after a days walking on the island. Standouts were the shellfish, the local island beer and the chocolate torte with sea blackthorn sorbet ( outstanding). Limited places so probably booking required

We were lucky enough to secure a table on opening night if the summer 24 season. A lovely evening spent with locals who were clearly happy to have their restaurant open again. We both chose the same main and deserts - Steak Pie followed by Creme brulé.. Both very very good. Washed down with a few 'Jacks'. Service was friendly and of course very welcoming... Twas a lovely night and luckily enough for us, we plan to return to the island soon. Kinda makes sense to visit again. Thank you Cafe Canna. Jim n Judith

Perfect wee cafe, food was amazing. I enjoyed the cauliflower pie for dinner and the soup for lunch. Highly recommend to anyone visiting the Isle of Canna.

We visited here two evenings during our stay on Canna. We pre-ordered the seafood platter for the first night which was amazing, and great value too. The second night we tried non fish dishes which were excellent too. The gorse crème brûlée was a treat, and there’s a selection of local fins to sample. Staff friendly and helpful. Hope to be able to go back soon! Thanks for a lovely couple of evenings.

This restaurant is a must visit! Absolutely delicious seafood, we had crab ravioli, seafood platter and crème brûlée. All the dishes were amazing, with the best seafood platter we’ve ever had (be sure to order ahead of time as it’s fresh caught to order). The chef is incredible and beautiful views from the restaurant. We will definitely be back!

Absolute gem with amazing views. Although kinda hidden, it's definitely a must visit! Or anything else from the menu :) We recommend a seafood platter (has to be ordered in advance though), crab ravioli or pies. The majority of the ingredients are also locally sourced.

Cafe Canna simply serves the most exceptional seafood platter ever - lobster, crab and langoustines with salad, home-made bread and aoli - and at a fraction of the price you’d pay in Glasgow. The gorse flower crème brûlée is also wonderful.

We stopped in here after arriving on Cana as part of our Bella Jane Boat Trip. I wasn’t hungry but heard about the fresh home made bread and locally sourced ingredients. I ordered the cheese and tomato sandwich with also had a jam spread and side of potato salad, ABSOLUTELY DELICIOUS! How can something so simple taste so good and all in a peaceful idyllic setting. Now when I have a craving for a sandwich my mind is drawn to Cafe Cana as it can’t be beat! Owners are lovely too!

Amazing venue. What a gem of a place would highly recommend…..definitely not to be missed when you visit Canna. Staff were amazing really lovely people .

This place is an absolute gem! The hospitality and food were second to none. Locally brewed island beer, fresh locally sourced fish and produce. Very welcoming and helpful owners… I’ll definitely be back soon to sample the rest of the brilliant menu and more beer of course.

Just the awesome experience of my life with sea food ! Anchored here on my way to western Hebrides islands. Visiting at lunch I ordered by accident a bucket of langoustines. They were so fresh and well cooked that I came back for dinner and ordered a crab + yelp salad. Over the top of this local food incredibly cooked we've got the waitress' smile which is perfectly aligned with this exceptional experience offered by incredible people members of an unique community! If they were established under grand central station they would have been millionaires but I can't thank them enough to stay at Canna island and being a small stone of a hopefully coming new world ! Thank you for everything Canna café on VHF channel 8

This cafe is fantastic. When you travel to a small island it is fab when you come across a cafe such as this that is welcoming, friendly and serves wonderful, delicious food. We had dinner one evening and stopped off again for lunch the next day. The home made bread is awesome and the quality of food served is excellent. The shop next door is also very well stocked and it was handy to be able to access it 24 hours. A really great set up. We loved our trip to Canna and I am keen to come back again in the near future, particularly to sample more of the cafe menu!

We ate here twice and really enjoyed the experience. We had preordered langoustines and lobster, both of which were superb. The staff were very friendly and welcoming and it’s a place not to be missed as this is a magical island and our favourite of the Small Isles.

Op maandag eerst brunch gehad Peat smoked zalm met roerei Heeerlijk!! Voor de avond had ik 3 een reservering staan. De dubble burger was goood!! Cheese platter with a whiskey also nice!! Vriendelijk personeel en goede atmosfeer.

amazing cafe and absolutely superb menu. even when they’re closed they sell their pastries in the shop next door, never had such an inspired and delicious pasty (and discovered the wild garlic is growing literally behind the cafe) 🤩

Great food, great service and great company. Had dinner two nights using local produce which was superb. Waitress, Aileen, was so attentive and so helpful

We ate here 2 nights and both meals were absolutely delicious. Excellent use of local produce. Chef is very talented. Our welcome to the cafe by Aileen our waitress was very friendly. She went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed. Thoroughly recommend this cafe. Very special.

Another visit to Canna and another example of Gareth’s kindness. As well as providing fantastic haggis toasties (sadly we were too late to grab a much sought after table) he, once again went above and beyond to help us out. We’re now on our way back and hoping for some lovely weather weather to sit outside and enjoy Gareth’s amazing pale ale (I don’t usually like beer!!). If you can, go to the Canna Cafe!

A really great restaurant. Authentic island food, imaginatively cooked and prepared and indeed little to find fault with. Vegan and veggie options. Micro brewery, great service and relatively inexpensive. Need to book for evenings but certainly worth a visit and indeed i pretty much went every day.

To visit café Canna you have first to visit the Isle of Canna, a few hours by boat from Mallaig. So plan ahead, as you will probably need to stay over. Having checked ferry times and accommodation, and booked an evening table at Café Canna, you can look forward to enjoying this exquisite friendly little place. There might be as many seats as there are island residents, but as that's currently just 16 people, you can see it's intimate. We had the seafood platter and it was the best I've ever eaten! The content varies according to the most recent catch, but langoustine, crab, squat lobster and full lobster all featured in our shared platter. As a starter I had crab bisque, which was truly fantastic and packed with flavour. We shared a bottle of house wine, which went very well with the seafood and were delighted to compliment both chef and waitress on an excellent meal.They do lunches too, with tasty sandwiches, soup and bread (we had pea and mint - again delicious) and make the most of local foraged foods. We stayed in a camping pod not far away and loved it. It's a nice quiet island but honestly the thing that would draw me back would be the Café Canna (note, closed on Tuesdays).

Four of us dined here after anchoring a yacht in the harbour. The restaurant is small (16 covers when we were there) and simply furnished. We were warmly welcomed and the service was friendly. The menu is fairly short but contains some imaginative dishes using local ingredients such as rabbit and seaweed as well as more conventional steaks, burgers and seafood. The seafood lakhsa was particularly good. The restaurant appeared to be run by just two people, and not surprisingly after a busy day in this remote location not everything on the menu was available and our courses took some time to arrive, but the beer from Skye kept us contented. One has to admire the ambition behind the establishment and we enjoyed our evening.

We had dinner here twice during a 4 night stay on Canna. Both times the food was amazing, matching the special location. Delicious crab linguine, fresh lobster & one of the best seaweed dishes I’ve ever had! Canna is a pretty magical place - definitely make sure to eat here if you make the trip.

This place is fantastic! The home brewed beer was, for a non beer drinker, excellent and the food was as good as anything I’ve eaten in a “normal” restaurant and, to cap it all Gareth charged our battery and refroze our ice blocks for us overnight!

travelled over from Elgol on a RIB and had the most dramatic crossing with the Bella Jane boat company. but the cafe makes its own bread as well as all the menu being freshly prepared to order. both the boat company and the Cafe are worthy of your custom

Amazing food in this small island cafe which we had to book for as it gets so busy, not just with those staying on the island but with the many yachtsfolk mooring here overnight. Delicious. Lovely friendly service too.

I recommend this amazing eatery on the furthest western isle. The cafe/bar is run extremely well by hardworking, welcoming staff. The menu offers freshly prepared dishes to a high standard. Freshly caught lobster is on offer (great value tho not eaten by me yet). This cafe is beautifully isolated, yet is a focal point for yachtsman, campers, day visitors. Although I have to admit, once the 'traffic' departs on the ferry or on the visiting rib boats back to Elgol, the cafe provides a perfect place to look over the scenic island & prettiest of harbours. Cafe Canna is one of life's unforgettable and unique tonics. It is a highlight of every visit we make to Canna. Menu, service, atmosphere, environment- all 5 star, and the cold bottled cider is lovely - just go!

Interesting wee café, just glorious to sit outside in the sunshine, opposite the shore, watching for otters.Good tea and cake and decent (if not wow ) lobster macaroni to take away.Nice place though not open till 11am so I had to stay desperate for tea when I got off the boat at 10am.I'd counted on it being open at 10am.

This little cafe on the Isle of Canna is a gem. We had coffees and snacks, and dinner too. The dinner was fabulous including the lobster, crab linguine and risotto. And the seaweed starter was frankly delectable. Remember to book and preorder. Closed on Tuesday. Thanks to the staff who were lovely and friendly.

Had lunch here on two consecutive days during our stay on Canna...ok it is the only cafe but as such could let standards slip as there is no alternative. The food is all freshly prepared and tasty. Each day we had the panini and soup combo. The soup was really spicy. Good value and friendly. They also appear adept at coping with the rush when the ferry arrives and everyone is cold and wet! Lovely place.

Superb little cafe, great use of local produce. We had the risotto which was very filling and delicious - the soups are vegan also, so it's great to drop by for a quick lunch. Try and get 'the jack' locally brewed beer - it sells out fast so be quick! There's always lots of locals here too which is a good sign, the place has a lovely relaxed atmosphere. 10/10 reccomend.

A beautiful bay on a remote Scottish island turns out also to have a small restaurant serving marvellous local food, especially fresh seafood. We shared the (order in advance) seafood platter of lobster and langoustines, which was simply delicious. Cafe Canna is often crowded with yachtsfolk in the evening, and is one reason the island is such a popular mooring spot in the region. Is also a very crowded cafe stop during those days when the ferry unloads groups of walkers and birdwatchers. Also has wifi!

Canna only has a population of about 15 but it has this lovely bar/restaurant. We didn’t eat (except for ice-cream) but the menu looked good. The staff are lovely and very tolerant of you sitting for a long period having a coffee (while your other half walks). There’s also WiFi for those that feel the need to contact the outside world!

What a lovely little place. Stopped here on a boat trip for a cuppa. Didn’t have any food but it looked very tasty. Staff were friendly and the even took card payments. Next door there is a small shop with an honesty box policy. Extraordinary to see in this day and age but also great.

I'm just back from four days on beautiful Canna which was such a lovely surprise in so many ways, not least because the local bar and restaurant was a real find. The setting is lovely, down on the harbour looking out over the green hills of Sanday to the Atlantic beyond. The people working there are very friendly - and so are the other diners who usually include a scattering of intrepid sailors using Canna's sheltered moorings as they explore the Inner Hebrides. Even better, the food is interesting, delicious and innovative, and specialises in local seafood, especially crab. My advice is pre-order a whole crab which is caught just off the island and so fresh, it practically talks. Although the crab linguini and the rabbit stew are pretty spectacular as well.And don't miss the Tallisker ice cream! Nice selection of spirits and wines too. If you're in this neck of the woods, the island is a wonderful place to visit and if you do, don't miss out on eating at Cafe Canna. it's great.

Just back from a great short break in Canna ,beautiful island ,so relaxing and remote but guess what this tiny island boasts a fantastic place to eat !! We ate twice from Cafe Canna ,one takeaway and also sat in for our dinner ,both times the food was excellent and good value. We enjoyed amongst other things rabbit stew ,crab linguine and beautiful,

This is such a friendly little place on a very special island. It needs booking but they took our booking on the same day, If your on Canna then you will undoubtably end up here,

Good coffee, good home made cakes and friendly staff. Just sit outside and take it all in, watch for wildlife and enjoy the view. Wished we could have stayed for dinner as the menu looked interesting.

What a spot! After spending 2 weeks on Canna on a workaway, this was our last dinner and it was definitely worth it. Had a huge fresh Canna crab (lobsters and crabs need to be reserved a day in advance) to share with my girlfriend plus the rabbit stew. Chocolate brownie with ice cream as a dessert was a perfect finisher. As it tends to be in smaller restaurants like this, the interior is very cozy and comfortable to sit in. The staff is one of the best I've ever encountered, always smiling and ready to help you. If you get the chance to visit the beautiful Isle of Canna, you should definitely at least get a cup of hot chocolate in here!

Or you may be disappointed. This wee cafe is really popular - lovely to see the tables outside full of folk enjoying lunch with views over the bay. Inside the tables are well arranged and there is plenty to look at on the walls, including sheep shearers from the time of the previous owners. Great to pop in for a coffee or a wee glass of wine, or to sample one of the Skye beers on offer and lovely for a tasty bite to eat. Couldn't be a friendlier welcome!

Cafe Canna has new owners but the staff are the same friendly guys as before and the food is just as good if not even better than it was last time.

When we realised that the only place to eat out in Canna was a ‘cafe’ -just before we sailed- we were not hopeful. However, Cafe Canna turned out to be much more than a cafe. Both food and service were outstanding thanks to the sterling efforts of the team there. Highly recommended for the freshly caught seafood - and the sweet potato chips!

Tasty hot mackerel sandwiches with salad and delicious cake. Friendly service and a beautiful location.

Wonderful little cafè in the middle of nowhere, on a wonderful little island. Food is excellent. We had the venison pie for diner ... a real treat. Fantastic little cafè with stunning views. It’s a little place, so make a reservation. Friendly and polite staff.

Booked ahead and managed to get a table for 5 at 1730 which suited us perfectly as were sailing into the bay after a long day. Stunning location with the best views, very comfortable. We were made very welcome and there was a great menu that suited all tastes including our pescatarian (can’t fail in the western isles). Service was excellent and couldn’t be faulted and the buzz in the place was great. We particularly enjoyed the Talisker Ice cream which was really interesting- made me re-evaluate the cream/sweet/smoky combination. Steve’s lobster was top notch and the pickled herring tacos were well very well rated as either a starter or main. Wine list was a bit limited but I guess logistics make that hard to manage.

Came off my boat on spec , having no idea of what was available. (see photo) Had lovely light lunch of salmon and scrambled egg, and then thought later that I'd have an evening meal too. Not so easy my friend - fully booked already! That speaks volumes in such a remote spot with a population of less than 30. However, a quick chat with Gareth and Caroline, and an early fish supper was arranged, which I enjoyed greatly, sitting in the sun, with glass of ice-cold wine. Check other reviews for a full description of the food. I fancied the rabbit, and there are thousands on the island - so many in fact that they are culled - but not available at my very short notice. Next time, I'll book ahead.

Canna is a gem of the Hebrides and the cafe is a delight to visit. The food is quality and serves local produces for a range of drinks; the wonderful ambience welcomes visitors and locals alike . So the craic is good.

We booked in advance before arriving on Canna and pre-ordered lobster for an evening meal. We had already visited the cafe the day before our meal and sampled a few local beers. The lobster was very fresh and served with homemade bread and salad, it was delicious. We went the whole hog and decided to top it off with sticky toffee pudding which was yummy. Great selection of home baking as well. Cafe Canna is in an ideal location 5 minute walk from the pier with gorgeous views over the bay. It is well worth a visit on this beautiful island.

We enjoyed 2 dinners and 1 brunch at Cafe Canna. Friendly staff and great food using local produce: Canna rabbit and freshly landed lobster. Also nice to see good selection for vegetarians. Good beer and wines. Lobster needs to be ordered day in advance and advise booking for dinner as can get busy with folks from yachts (and locals).

This tiny cafe on the remote and unspoiled island of Canna is the place to go for a relaxing drink or, if you have time, a meal. We visited on a trip with AquaXplore and so only had a chance for some home baking and a wee dram. Service was prompt, warm and friendly. If you are on the island and fancy a coffee drop by, chill out and reflect on how beautiful the scenery is.

Wonderful island to visit, staff could not have been more helpful. Menu is a bit limited, it is small island life after all. If you are in the area, hop the ferry and enjoy the island

This is a must if you are around the area the Cafe overlooks a lovely bay and they certainly know how to look after their customers The wild life is good with lots to see including if you are lucky Corn Crake and with a bit of a walk Puffins

We ate dinner here regularly when staying in the wonderful Burnbank on Sanday.

Wonderful little restaurant on stunning Isle of Canna. We had such fun with owner and other passers by. We had delicious fresh seafood and a much welcomed beer. An experience to remember and repeat!

Spend two days on the isle of canna and can highly recommend the cafe for lunch and dinner prices and choice all good

Once again thanks to you, Anna, and Chris for such a wonderful meal at the Café 4 weeks ago. It was quite the best meal we have ever had, in the most beautiful place too.

Small cafe/restaurant on a small and beautiful island. The menu is a little limited, particularly given it was approaching the end of the season when we visited. However particularly given the size and isolation of the place, what there was was great, tasty, well presented and good size. The 'wine list' was also somewhat limited, but appropriate and the bottle we had was well suited to the meal. The proprietor was engaging and fun and produced great food and atmosphere. You really don't expect to get such great food in such an isolated place. But, as well as the food you get the view and look location along side the harbour. Called the following day for a nice cold beer and a philosophical chat after a long walk across this lovely island. If the cafe was at the end of my street or even a few miles away I'd be a regular.

One of the highlights of our sailing voyage, assisted by the perfect weather conditions and walking onto east bluff, where...

We stoped here for around an 1hr on a boat trip from Skye, lovely cafe great homage cake and the...

Wonderful place on this enchanting island! Afternoon tea included a slab of home made rocky road, and a home made...

Atmosphere, meal, staff & service brilliant. Book your dinner however to avoid disappointment. Once booked, no regrets.

we ate here twice on a brief overnight stay on Canna. The food was unfussy and very tasty. Evening meal...

We had lunch here on Thursday then dinner Friday. All I can say is keep doing what you're doing!!!! Staff are friendly and chatty. The food is delicious,fresh and portions are fantastic. Range of refreshments is also excellent.

As part of a sailing trip around The Small Isles we came across this 'cafe' on one of the smallest islands - Canna. The island is home to less than 3 dozen people so to find a place with such good food and friendly staff came as a very welcome surprise. If you want to have the daily special, you need to book in at least the day before. Booking before arriving is essential, but you won't be disappointed!

Have eaten here twice in the last year outside with our dog Archie. A really nice find with friendly staff and good food in a pretty remote place. We would like to have tried the rabbit but sold out once again!That said got to admire what has been achieved from nowhere to eat ashore a few years ago to this really nice place today. Keep up the great work and food.

This is the only cafe in Canna and just as well that it is very good. The owners work extremely hard to make it work. Good well presented food. They are single handed lay trying to resolve the rabbit epidemic on the island. Delicious rabbit stew! Good burgers and welcome chips.Nice beers and wines.Free wifi!!!!

I visited the world famous Cafe Canna yesterday. The food was fantastic, great hosts, stunning location, worth every penny and will be back again. Loved the BBQ too

I was very grateful that this cafe/bistro always found me something gluten free to eat. The snacks and full meal were delicious. The dog loved the fish too. Free wifi was the icing on the cake.

Beautiful secluded harbour with this gem of a place. Personable service and a lovely local and relaxed atmosphere.Stunning views over the bay with a few short walks around it.A honesty shop with surprisingly good supplies given its remote location.Closed this season on Tuesdays at the moment. Open every other day.

Recently had a few visits here whilst seeing family on the island. A real good place to get out of the rain and enjoy the view. The Salted Caramel Sauce with Ice Cream is also perfect too!

This café has something of a captive audience, given it's the only place on Canna to grab a bite to eat, but that doesn't seem to create a complacent attitude or product. We were only there for a late lunch, waiting for our boat back to Skye, and so unfortunately the enticing evening menu was out of bounds.But for us a bacon roll hit the spot perfectly, washed down by a decent coffee. Not mindblowingly, hipsteresque, good; but as good a caffeine hit as you'll get in most places (and better than mass-produced nonsense). The best was yet to come though, with a monumental slab of rocky road for a frankly ridiculously small amount of money.All of this is a cosy wee room, with space for about 16 people, and even licensed if you fancy something a bit stronger than coffee (including Isle of Skye beers, a few different whiskies, and Isle of Harris Gin).

Had lovely hot chocolate and scones which were delicious, overlooking the bay at Canna. Such a beautiful setting and well worth a visit.

We visited this cafe whilst on a trip with AquaXplore based in Elgol. The cafe opened specifically because there were visits to the island. Whilst we only had a brief stay the food was excellent, service was polite and prompt and the view breathtaking. If you are on the island this cafe is well worth a visit.

A small café which doubles as a restaurant in the evening. Good long opening hours, comfortable and good food/drink. Sit outside if the weather permits and see the world of Canna go by (actually you can see most of the populated area of Canna from there).

What a lovely surprise to find this great restaurant on such a tiny island. Chris has put a great deal of thought into his menu so he can cater for vegetarian and gluten free (and other requirements). The food is delicious, especially the soups and cakes. Much better than many meals we've recently had on the mainland. I would definitely recommend, just make sure you help Chris by letting him know in advance.

Lovely wee cafe on the beautiful Isle of Canna. Popped in here for lunch a couple of times during a two night stay on the island. I had the homemade soup and toasted sandwiches and both were thoroughly delicious. Evening meals are also available. The staff were very friendly, and the free Wi-Fi was a bonus. The cafe's lovely inside. There's also seating outside where you can sit and admire the stunning views. Thoroughly recommend this place.

Si déjà vous êtes arrivé a Canna ce n'est pas par hasard...Ce petit café,comme échoué au cœur de la baie vous accueille comme un petit bonheur.Une bière après une longue ballade dans les landes et sur les falaises.Un Café ou un Thé ou/un whisky pour vous réchauffer les os.Un Island Rabbit Stew pour le déjeuner ou le diner qui vous sera aussi salvateur que le régulation des lapins de l'ile est nécessaire.En terrasse ou cosi dedans, vous y trouverez le wifi, les sourires des jolis minois au service et une chaleur sans égal.A coté la boutique communautaire et son Honnesty Box pour les marins de passage au mouillage et le ranger qui vous en dira tant et plus sur ce petit cailloux plein de charmes, de mystères millénaires, d'oiseaux de mer et de champs de linaigrettes.

The Cafe Canna is great for a stop before or after exploring the island's attractions. The welcoming staff make you feel relaxed and at home.

A very friendly welcome from the amazing Chris. The best lobster ever. Canna is gorgeous - get there any way you can!

We enjoyed our Misty Island Tour to Canna and around but the culinary hospot wad the Cafe Canna stop. Wholesome food and pleasant staff. Very clean and trendy.

Had a night at cafe canna dinner was very good and service was friendly the salmon starter was amazing fish and chips also very good great location

Stopped over a night while sailing, we decided to have dinner in the cafe. Do call ahead as we did as the place is cosy, but well worth making the time for. Had the delightful rabbit stew, with wonderfully crispy potato rosti. Would heartily recommend for food, a drink and the view.

You'll need to book ahead for dinner in this tiny hostelry unless you are very lucky and particularly if you want to choose the Canna Cafe's exceptional lobster dish. We were on a mooring in the natural harbour and it was well worth the effort of inflating the dinghy to get ashore. Anna had even left a hose at the pier for us so that we could water the boat up alongside. Everyone talks to everyone in the inviting and friendly Cafe atmosphere and the staff are wonderful. We enjoyed excellent beers and washed the lobster down with a first class Chablis. To enjoy the Canna cafe, you don't have to sail across: there are ferries and places available for booking to stay on the island.

We sailed over to spend a couple of days on a mooring in Canna harbour. Got a very warm welcome from Chris and Anna at Cafe Canna. Wonderful place with a great atmosphere and really tasty food....try the lobster and sweet potato fries...awesome! The whole experience was very special.

Another great dinner tonight at Cafe Canna. Great local food, great location and friendly service from owners Anna and Chris. If you are visiting Canna by yacht or ferry make the effort to visit Cafe Canna.

Excellent food and welcome. Friendly, good quality and cozy.The menu is more limited than mainland cafes and restaurants but you are on The Isle of Canna with limited footfall off the boats and only a few residents and tourists able to stay on the island. The squid, fish, burger are very good. However the rabbit stew is excellent. Didn't try the lobster which has to be pre ordered.It is small but that does make it cozy and it's intimacy does mean you talk to everybody.

Well what a wonderful secret place to stop for a cuppa, meal or drink! We were doing a four hour boat trip from Elgol and stopped on this beautifully remote Island for an hour. Great friendly fast service from the cafe team and free wifi! Thanks

Had a wonderful meal of lobster, sweet potato chips and salad - absolutely delicious. Also very tasty soups. For a small, remote island, the variety of excellent food on offer was amazing.

Great food thanks Chris and Anna I think I will be back in September for more food and coffee not forgetting the friendly atmosphere thanks keep up good work

We sailed in from Eriskay so unable to book in advance (and wondered if that was fair anyway, given that we might not have made Canna that night - not sure what happens if you book but can't turn up!). Unfortunately it was fully booked and not a night for sitting outside! Thought maybe Sunday lunch would be served the next day but it was soup, etc, so ate aboard. Would have booked Sunday night but they said the rabbit stew was finished and not available for a couple of days. Always nice to eat something you can't get elsewhere! We usually sail a bit more 'out of season' so still hope to try the menu one of these days as it's a convenient distance from home.Community moorings nice and snug and certainly better than worrying about dragging the anchor overnight! Shop with honesty box very good indeed and all very friendly.

Sailing fr.o.m. Iles of Skye, Armadale to Canna, with good Wind and after entering bay of Canna, with the dinghy ashore we get suprise, then served not café meals, perfect dinner Lobster, fish, schrimps, best place ever.

The cafe was perfect; the view from the seats outside was stunning and tranquil, the food was local and 5*, and the service was brilliant.

Spent a few days camping on Canna with the kids in July. Canna Café was a welcome respite from the super noodles. Great food, decent portions, reasonable prices, charming staff, can't fault it.

My son and I arrived by yacht and came ashore to try the fare at Cafe Canna as I had read good things about it. We were just too late for the lunch menu so decided to take e sun outside with a beer and wait for the evening meals to start. Up to that pont, my son said he'd already had the best smoked salmon at another location but is starter beat that easily. Delicious. He the had the haddock....an enormous pice of fish which was also very good but he wished he'd copied me in having the rabbit stew.....perfection on a plate.
