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.

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!

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.

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

We stumbled upon Wee Bar on our first evening in Inverness, arriving without a reservation and not quite sure what to expect. While other places nearby turned us away, the team at Wee Bar warmly welcomed us, accommodating us between two reservations and offering a cozy, lounge-like space that immediately made us feel at ease. Only later did we learn they were short-staffed, with just one server managing the floor, assisted occasionally by staff from the restaurant downstairs. Despite that, the service was seamless. Drinks and appetizers arrived promptly and with a genuine smile. A special shoutout goes to their willingness to go the extra mile—when we requested a hot toddy for my wife, they happily made a custom one just for her. That may not sound like much, but in contrast, other pubs nearby simply declined. It’s this kind of “can-do” attitude that truly makes a place stand out. Our appetizers were just what we needed to kick off the evening: a delicious charcuterie plate with meats and cheeses, perfectly crispy onion rings, rich and flavorful garlic mushrooms, and a fresh bread basket. Everything was beautifully presented and full of flavor. I wish I remembered the name of the server who made the experience so memorable (we visited on April 15th around 6:30 PM). Their warmth, efficiency, and positive attitude made all the difference.

The good portions are small. The small plate is about 5 ounces. The taste is mediocre.
