Cafe Roo in Eilean Siar

We found this great little place upon going for a drive north east of the island and so glad we stopped. Lovely little cafe with gorgeous views. The food and drinks were all delicious. The staff were very nice and welcoming too. Local art on sale here and a great convenience store.

Great for Sunday breakfast. Coffee and staff great. Will certainly recommend to anyone looking for a cosy cafe. Staff are very friendly and helpful.

We’ve been in a few times this past month. The most recent we had lunch: home made soup, toasties and fish’n’chips. Excellent value and really tasty. A superb community shop and service in the old school house at Knock

All the staff in this wonderful community store and cafe are welcoming and kind. The food, cakes and hot drinks are top quality. If you’re passing it’s a great place to stop and fuel up and have a friendly chat...and support the local community too.

These slightly sweetened Hebridean variations of the traditional bannock are the bees knees. Cheeses are enlivened especially Crowdie!

your perfect little village shop. cafe is fantastic , get everything you need here and its friendly!

Fantastic community resource, especially if you forget a few things for the fridge. Super place for lunch. Don't expect to be in-and-out, you'll meet someone you know there.

Off to knock to see what all the fuss was about, as the girl next door had said they did great food, good prices. So true great access for my father with his stroller, service was spot on and the food and coffee was top quality, great wee place and we will be back, must be good as 4 bikers turned up and they had come all the way from Ireland

Great Coffee and friendly staff. Menu is fairly basic but it is good home cooking. Soup of the day is a must.

We visited here the other day for brunch. Food was very good as was the service. We had a friend visiting from England and he was very impressed.

We visited here again for lunch during our recent visit with family. The chef was a bit rushed being on his own. That said service was hard to fault and the food quality was excellent and very good value. We will visit again.

Visit on a weekly basis as its just down the road. Nice menu selection and great food. Staff are friendly and can then catch the bus outside.

We popped in there this morning and had their full breakfast . This was cooked from scratch to order everthing was fantastic. We also did some shopping and for the size of operation the choice was amazing especially the chilled counter where the ready meals were locally produced and catered for all tastes will defianetly be back

First time in this cafe, and will definately be back , Food was lovely, fresh, hot , and prices were amazing. Good parking, nice staff, and lovely fresh backing. Def worth a visit, and there is also a shop attached. Brilliant place , highly recommended 👌

Good food at excellent prices & very filling. Great little shop too selling out of the ordinary things. Parking available.

Well worth a visit! Lovely food, friendly staff, good value shop. Plenty of parking. Really nice coffee. Even a second hand book shop. Still has that old school vibe, because it's an old school 😉.

This is part of a community cafe and shop and is a fantastic value for money little cafe with a really good choice, all cooked fresh and served hot. Cannot fault a thing and highly recommend a visit if you come to Lewis.

This was a good stop for a slice of local life and a very fairly priced lunch stop for four....

La comida era buena, justo lo que necesitaba. Bonito lugar, sólida experiencia en general cafw. El personal parecía un poco abrupto pero no tengo ninguna queja.

Nice cafe and good shop selling just about everything you might need. Good selection of second hand books being sold in the same building as shop.

Expect a warm welcome even if you're not a local. Expect great tea, coffee, cakes and food. Cafe Roo is a fantastic cafe that is well worth a visit. Serves take away too!

We visited here twice during our recent trip 2nd time for breakfast....All freshly cooked and very hot plates.....Great food at a reasonable price...well worth a visit.

We decided to visit today for a breakfast as we had heard they were very good. The breakfast was freshly cooked and comes with tea or coffee. The café also offer a vegetarian breakfast which was excellent. We are finding community cafés on Lewis such as this one are excellent value for money and we look forward to going back again on our next visit.

Went early in the morning, had a cracking roll and cup of tea, good way to start the day. Set me up for the day, not to pricey

If you are visiting this is a must for lunch...We visited twice on this trip and were delighted with the food quality, the service not to mention the value for money...we will be back on our next visit for sure!!

We called here for a cup of tea and were made exceedingly welcome. Although we had our dog with us and therefore could not sit inside, the lady serving went out of her way to provide takeaway food including a snack for the dog!

The elegant tea service and the excellent home made chocolate cake were fantastic. Also the small gift shop attached to the school was very good.

Its worth a visit this place easy to find and the food quality is of a decent standard and will not break the bank in terms of cost...we had a very good lunch.

I frequent this place a lot and have just tried the Cepelinai a Lithuanian dish that is just amazing! As always the staff were so friendly and helpful! So glad they recommended this dish. Would recommend everyone come here!

Friends had recommended Cafe Roo so after a walk on the beach we decided to try it. The cafe and well stocked shop are in a former school and there is plenty of parking. We had a panini and fish and chips with drinks for £13 in total. Amazing value and the fish and chips were far better than some other more expensive restaurants we have eaten in. We will definitely go back.

We were advised to try this place and it was pretty good.Value was also good with lunch for tw...o fish and chips and a toastie along with a decent coffee and a pot of tea under £15!!.Not much from the outside but worth a visit.

Went to Cafe Roo for Lunch and as always had a great meal! Have been many times in the past but was always disappointed with my coffee order, NOT NOW! Not sure what has changed but their coffee now is smooth rich and tasty! Will definitely be visiting regularly for my caffeine fix!

Wen to the café for a bite of lunch and was really impressed with the menu and the food that we were presented with. It makes use of a number of locally sourced foods, which is really good to see. We had panini with various fillings, and they were very tasty, as was the side salad. The home baking on display looked great too, but didn't indulge, as we were full.The associated shop also stock a great range of locally sourced foodstuffs, as well as some cupboard staples.

We stopped here after a walk and did some shopping and had lunch. Surprisingly wide range of food at very reasonable prices. Good to be able to support a Community Venture! A very nice lunch.

After exploring Point, the Eye Peninsula, we stopped to have a look at the shop and café in the old schoolhouse with the intention of having a brew and a bun. After a look round the shop and café this turned into coffee and food. Both the crabcakes and seafood were tasty and generously portioned for the price; the coffee and fruit scone excellent. The shop has an excellent variety of general groceries for it's size and some excellent locally made dishes. A small but interesting section of bottles of malt whisky; however the wine selection was pretty run of the vineyard - however there should be something for most tastes. We'll be back. Note - as with almost every thing on Lewis and Harris it does not open on Sundays. (Not a complaint.)

Visited this former school house for a quick bite after a long walk and it truly fits the bill! Friendly staff, efficient service and tasty cafe-style food

Excellent atmosphere,kind,caring and very helpful staff,amazing array of daily meals,specials and home baking locally sourced.Highly recommend for breakfast,take away,lunch,afternoon tea, a pleasant place to sit and enjoy the ambianceThis place cannot be recommend enough,I encourage you to visit..
