Edinbane Lodge in Highland

One of the most amazing and beautifully executed tasting menus I’ve ever had. Staff was incredible kind and attentive. Each dish was crafted with great care and perfection. The flavours were surprising and delicious. We loved every minute of the experience. Thank you for providing and creating the most special evening for me and my family.

This was the best place we stayed on our visit to Scotland. It’s in a great location for getting out to explore Skye and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Unfortunately we didn’t get to have dinner there, but we did get breakfast both mornings and it was exceptional. Every member of staff was absolutely lovely. The gents that greeted us were warm, welcoming and fun. The women who helped us on our last morning there were equally pleasant, professional, and kind. We genuinely felt welcome there in a way that we simply haven’t in other places. I can’t recommend staying with these folks highly enough. An absolute highlight of our trip. Do yourself a favor and book a room!

We were staying next to the Lodge, and this was a recommendation to come and eat by our hosts, Phil and Karen, and it did not disappoint. This is a high-end experience, and the service and the staff were superb. You get a full understanding of where the produce comes from, which is really great. The menu and the quality of the food were fantastic. This is a great experience from start to finish and would highly recommend it to anyone staying or passing through this area.

We only came for dinner, see below.

Exquisite dining. Room 4 had a few issues: toilet, heater, bath

Local Scottish meals on an excellent level. Well worth the drive

Dinner was fantastic as you would expect but breakfast was not great

Amazing breakfast! Great staff!

Lovely Anniversary stay at the lodge and dinner at the restaurant.

Divine. Chef’s tasting menu plus a bunch of cocktails and every encounter with staff was courteous, friendly and welcoming. Will need to make a point of returning. Thank you all so much for accommodating us last night.

Beautiful meal, lovely service. The food here is crafted with care - sustainably sourced, proud of Scottish heritage and plated immaculately. A special place and one of the best meals we have had ever!

Brilliantly cooked and presented taster menu. For me the best restaurant on Skye for food, service and ambience.

Dinner only- What an amazing experience from start to finish! We were greeted warmly at the door and were taken care of so wonderfully the entire time. We enjoyed the tasing menu with friends in celebration of my husbands birthday and it will be one of the most memorable meals of our lives. Each course was carefully presented and we enjoyed the wine pairings as well. Cocktails were on point and Alan didn’t miss a beat with our crazy groups requests. We can’t wait to return to Skye again and maybe next time we will stay at the lodge.

My wife and I had dinner there. It was amazing! Great service, creative tasting menu, wine pairing, and decor. Staff were extremely nice and friendly. Highly recommend!

Stayed here in 2023, amazing experience and exceptional food.

For restaurant only - our experience during the tasting menu was phenomenal. The flavors were outstanding and everything was done so well. I will never forget this experience.

The staff were some of the friendliest people you will ever meet Cameron was extremely helpful when the power went out across the island during our stay. The Sommelier Alex gave us great insight to all the wines served with our amazing dinner. The Rooms were clean and cozy with stunning views of the island. We would I’ve to stay here again and again. 10/10

Simply an unforgettable gastronomic experience from the moment we stepped through the door to our departure. At every touch point--ambiance, service, food, wine--our visit to the restaurant at Edinbane Lodge was thoughtfully, artistically and deliciously curated for each of us. This is a must return for us next time we visit magical Scotland!

Exquisite food and wonderful service

Review for restaurant only. My partner and I recently ate at the restaurant during our recent trip to Skye, booking the tasting menu as a special meal for our first night. Given the raving reviews we were of course very excited to be dining there. Unfortunately we didn’t share the same experience as others. While the ambiance and service was good, the meal was pretty mediocre, particularly considering its price tag. This is not our first fine dining and we had certain expectations. We don’t often spend that much for food, but are happy to do so for a great meal. The starters were very heavy on butter with other flavours missing, the third course was a plate of bread that was much larger than you’d need, the main course (beef) was overcooked and tough, and the whole meal didn’t have any vegetables. The last three courses of the tasting menu were all deserts, including a small slice of Brie that was fridge temperature. Overall, it was very disappointing and we were able to eat better food in another restaurant on the island for a quarter of the price.

We ate at the restaurant. Lovely atmosphere and food. Best old fashioned.

Edinbane Lodge Dinner 27/6/2004 Really beautiful and well done in many aspects but they didn’t live up to their price point. We’ve eaten at many restaurants at this price point and above & have owned 8 restaurants over the years so it’s the little things on par for a high end experience. We enjoyed the technical, creative and aesthetic aspects of the food. The emphasis on local produce, except for the Australian truffles, was welcomed and reflected in the freshness of the ingredients. Highlights included the bbq mussels tasting, hake with smoked seaweed butter sauce, Brie & apple ‘donut’, and the ‘falasgair’ something like a soft oat biscuit topped with burned heather ice cream. Where it is mostly off target are ambience and service. The lodge setting is dark and somber. It could use some touches of light and colour to support the modern interpretations of traditional fare. The service staff were very pleasant, formally, traditionally dressed and slightly disjointed. For example, the tasting arrived before ordering our wine, it took 3 people to get an answer about a wine, the table wasn’t crumbed after the entrees, we had to ask for water after our first round was served, no waiter ever poured our wine for us during the dinner and then the finished bottle of wine was left on table. Finally, as much as we love Bruce Springsteen and the Spotify best of 80’s & 90’s rock & roll playlist, it still was a bit too high energy for the ‘lodge-modern’ ambience and £140 per person menu. Even with allowances for improvement in the ambience and service, we think the experience would be more suited to a £90-100 per person price. It’s all about managing. expectations

Came only for the restaurant. Very nice experience, the dishes are delicious and the staff very attentive. I recommend

Amazing retreat in quiet Edinbane.

Superb experience with fresh food cooked perfectly. Loved the accommodation as well.
