Harbour Restaurant in Highland

A little gem of a restaurant, the food is nicely presented, but the emphasis is on taste rather than just on presentation. The menu is small, but excellently prepared, the fish fresh, the venison beautifully cooked, the deserts delicious. And the service is friendly and personal, I couldn’t ask for more from a restaurant, I just wish it was a bit closer to home 🤣

Lovely food that we have been wanting to try for a while, attentive and friendly service, book to avoid disappointment.

Fabulous restaurant in Donaghadee. So lucky to have it on our doorstep. Great place for a catch up with the girls. Fantastic food, great ambience and service. I had the daube of beef which was delicious! Scallops to start which were just perfect. Always good craic with Jody the owner! Reccomend a visit.

Une très bonne table. Un tres bon accueil. Les plats sont élaborés avec des produits de grandes qualités et sont préparés avec délicatesse. Pensez à réserver, les places a l’intérieur ne sont pas nombreuses.

Hervorragendes Essen. Kleines Restaurant mit einfachem Ambiente. Die Köchin ist Spanierin, die spanischen Einflüsse in der Küche sind eine echte Bereicherung. Wir haben Lamm,Wild, eine normale und eine vegetarische Lasagne gegessen und waren von allem begeistert. Auch die Desserts haben uns umgehauen. Die Preise sind etwas höher als in den umliegenden Lokalen, das Essen ist aber jeden Penny wert. Wir empfehlen dringend, einen Tisch zu reservieren, das Lokal war komplett voll.

Buena comida, de calidad y platos sencillos y bien elaborados. Lo mejor de la zona, sin duda. Reservar antes de ir. Camarero un profesional, es un lugar agradable

The interior looked a bit outdated. Paintings for sale were hanging on the walls. The host was friendly, and we received our food quickly. The venison stew was delicious.

A lovely little restaurant, so glad we booked as lots of people were turned away .The food was amazing, lovely wine and great service. Would highly recommend.

Lovely little place - felt authentic & great food/wine We had 4 gins and 2 tonics. A bottle of Albariño that was served at the correct temperature and tasted amazing. We shared a meat sharing starter with lovely tomato bread and olives. I had cod with a’oli gratin - veggies and potatoes - lovely tasty dish. Hubby had venison stew and amazing home made bread with butter. We then had a lovely cheesecake and chocolate dessert. 1 espresso A tad expensive at £141 but enjoyed it 😋

Leckeres Essen, ungezwungene Atmosphäre, etwas spanisch angehaucht, freundlicher Gastgeber und in der Küche macht die Gastgeberin lächelnd das Essen, schnell effektiv und ganz ruhige Teamarbeit. Auf jeden Fall ausprobieren!

Stopped in here to order some food to takeaway last night. I was shocked to see that a lasagne cost £19.95 but ordered this in the hopes that it would be a decent sized portion and really good. It was absolutely awful. Having worked in restaurants for many years, I would be ashamed to serve this up. Not only was it a really small portion, about 4x4inches, it was dry and basically just looked like plain cooked pasta sheets with mince in the middle and a little bit of orange cheese. Had we eaten in then I would definitely have said something to management or returned the meal. The lasagne came with a side of chips which were served in a plastic tub, meaning that they were soggy upon opening. I know that the prices of food has gone up but to charge almost £20 for this was ridiculous. We also got ribs which cost the same as the pasta and other than tasting slightly powdery due to the spices used, weren't too bad.

As a part of our small group tour, we ate at the Harbour Restaurant on two consecutive nights. We would've happily eaten there every night of our whole trip! The food was fantastic!!! We started with delicious mussels, in a salsa verde sauce. Our entrees ranged from a vegan Shepherd's Pie to venison stew and all were raved about. The quantities were large and the flavor was just incredible. The icing on the cake was my favorite dessert: Balsamic Vinegar Ice Cream with a Strawberry Sauce. It will visit me in my dreams! Thank you for a wonderful couple of meals!! I know it couldn't have been easy, turning out 17 meals at once, but you guys were awesome and the food was the best of the entire 10 day tour! Hope to be back some day!

This very disappointing. We ate in the Harbour Restaurant on a Saturday night but that was awful: rather cramped, the service wasn't very good (I think they were short staffed but that's not really a good excuse) and the food was pretty poor. One of our friends quite enjoyed his rabbit, but we had two very dried up lasagnes and the so-called "Spanish bean stew” was a tin of butterbeans with three small pieces of overcooked carrot and a little bit of courgette. No flavourings of any sort and not at all Spanish! It wasn't cheap either. I need to use a wheelchair which meant that getting in and out of my seat was difficult. When I booked, they warned us that they do not have an accessible toilet – the loser up some stairs – but that wasn't likely to be a problem. I understand that they may have been having problems that night and it might be alright on other occasions. But I don't know, so be warned.

We visited on a rainy midweek evening in June. Unfortunately, we were directly next to the door and a steady stream of customers kept leaving it open, causing a cold draught. Most of these were people trying to get a table, ignoring the sign on the door stating that they were full! The waiter was constantly distracted by these people, so one drink order was forgotten completely (we weren’t charged). Having said that, the food was excellent, and the service was generally friendly and timely. They have a good selection of alcohol free beers if you’re driving, but a similar cider would be a good addition to the menu.

Excellent restaurant quaint atmosphere, great menu, excellent presentation and delicious It is family run and they made everyone feel welcome

The town has limited restaurant choices, so we gave it a try. Family run business. Food didn’t taste as fresh as you might expect and was fairly dry, over cooked. The owner would do well by being a bit friendlier towards patrons.

Excellent Spanish style home cooking. A very nice change from typical food on the road. Friendly, quick service. Reasonable prices.

My wife and I had a fantastic dinner yesterday at the Harbor Restaurant in Broadford. I had Scottish filet with mushroom sauce and an assortment of vegetables on the side, my wife had lamb with apricots and prunes. Both meals were flavorful and original in taste. My steak was cooked as I requested: medium rare. Portions sated us both. For dessert we enjoyed a special: an apple tart with salted caramel ice cream. Delicious! The restaurant is run by a husband-and-wife duo. The husband waited the tables; the wife made and served the meals. Two energetic people who clearly take pride in their work! Both took the time to check on us regularly. The restaurant is a single room with seating for around twenty, so an intimate experience. If you are seated next to a window you will get cropped views of the harbor and hills beyond. Several parties looking for tables arrived while we were dining, but were turned away because but the restaurant runs a limited schedule and was full for the night – so best to make a reservation.

Location, a road! No view but good art work inside. Rustic Spanish pub food for a very high end price. The food was nice. The fish soup good. But price, too high! Basically, £18 for mussels and a very small portion. £27 for fillet steak, which was nice but not a lot with it and not the leanest of cuts. The best thing was the venison meatballs. Otherwise the meal and wine list felt ‘average’. Not a ‘must visit’ or ‘return too’ experience.

Cuisine excellente Service très sympa et efficace A recommander Pensez à réserver au moins 2 jours avant en été

El mejor restaurante de Broadford. Fuimos 2 veces y en ambas comimos fenomenal. Las albóndigas de ciervo exquisitas y nos preparó un arroz negro que ya lo quisiéramos en muchos sitios de España. Además Cristina es un encanto.

Beautiful simple home cooked food which will leave you feeling happy. We visited The Harbour on Monday. This place is an utter gem. They are very popular and could have filled the place twice over. The owners work so hard so deliver such a beautiful menu. You will not go wrong if you manage to book in here.

We were hoping to eat local to Portree but couldn’t get booked so elected to travel to Broadford instead and am so glad we did. Murdo (front of house) and Cristina (chef) made us feel at home in their little establishment where you’ll discover a little bit of authentic Spanish cooking fused with a Scottish twist in the beautiful surrounds of stunning Skye. The arroz negro con aioli (black rice with squid ink) for starter was stunning as was the mejillones a la Catalonia (mussels in a salsa verde). But the mains were the stars of the show with both the conejo al ajillo (classic rabbit sautéed in garlic) and the albondigas de ciervo de la abuela (Cristina’s grandmas venison meatballs) being to die for. Pre-booking is essential and they don’t serve a kids menu - but luckily our 9 year old is very adventurous and enjoyed it every bit as much as we did. Such a shame they’re moving on to pastures new - make sure you book to go there before they do.

Finally made it as local residents and it was absolutely fantastic! The service was so friendly and attentive but the real star is the food! The chef came out during our meal to ask how it was and I thought that was lovely and personal. We enjoyed 2 courses each and a delicious bottle of house white wine. One of the most reasonable priced restaurants on the island.

Ate here twice. Pre-booking essential. Tonight's fish soup followed by slow cooked roast leg of lamb in prunes and apricots was exceptionally tasty. Meat balls (venison) on an earlier evening were pretty good too. Difficult to recall better-tasting food anywhere else over the past 20 or so years. A refreshingly different and varied menu with a Spanish slant but still quite simple, traditionally presented food without the fancy stuff. Very reasonably priced by today's standards, decently quick, friendly and efficient service.

A warm welcome greeted us at The Harbour restaurant from Murdo and his charming Spanish partner (I m so sorry we did not get this lovely lady’s name). The restaurant is small, beautifully authentic with a buzzy atmosphere. The food has a Spanish twist and is both delicious and robust. The overall experience was a great start to our visit to Skye. Highly recommend a pre-booked visit.

Excellent paella! If you’re in town for more than one day, be sure to stop in make a reservation and pre-order the paella. Nice family run intimate restaurant.

Excellent, craft, hand-made food. This is a gem of a restaurant. Everything from the Starters through the Mains and Desert was thoughtfully and freshly prepared. Fine wine list as well.

We had an absolutely sensational mediteranean dinner at the Harbour Restaurant. Excellent from start to finish.

The restaurant opens at 5:30pm for dinner and as we hadn’t booked anywhere we decided to go early and see if we could get a table. We did but not much later after a few more people did the same the tables were full and...

If you want to try some really tasty Spanish food this is the place. Nice freshly prepared meals at a reasonable price.

Friendly serving staff. Clean restaurant. Food average, spare and overpriced. Paper placemats and serviettes.

Excellent home cooked food with not a chip nor a burger in sight. Fresh and tasty local produce with a Spanish twist. Delicious.

Lovely small restaurant serving excellent food & with brilliant service. Spanish flavour to all the food - tapas style starters, then slow cooked lamb,rabbit, various seafood options. Lamb was delicious as we're the roasted apples for dessert. Would definitely return.

A small restaurant serving Spanish Tapas style food. Prices were were not too dear and the dishes we had were lovely.

Went here for dinner with family after reading so many good reviews about this restaurant I was very excited to see what they had to offer. Service was fantastic and they were very friendly which was a nice touch. Starters were a mix of Spanish...

The harbour restaurant serves up simple mediterranean dishes in a cozy little restaurant. Nothing pretentious just delicious food prepared well.

Very nice restaurant, food was very good and staff is very nice. We spent a very nice evening with them.

I chose the spanish stew as I am vegetarian but was disapointed to be served a bowl of butterbeans and a chopped carrot, when I said I was unhappy I was told that everybody loves that dish and that it is very popular. The customer...

Small and unpretentious restaurant serving Spanish style food. Simple and delicious and not too expensive. Would recommend.

Would definitely recommend the Harbour Restaurant. Very tasty spanish style food done well and simply presented.

Very much enjoyed our visit to the Harbour Restaurant, Broadford. Fresh ingredients good cooking and some authentic Spanish flavours. The restaurant is quite small but that makes for a cosy atmosphere.

The menu was very Mediterranean but using local produce. A must visit when on Skye. The wine choice on the menu matched the food on offer without excessive prices. It’s not a Michelin starred restaurant but serves beautiful food in a very convivial setting.

Wow what a surprise to find a restaurant serving Spanish food on Skye. Very simple but very tasty dishes all done really well.

Amazing my wife and I didn't realise it was Spanish till we saw the menu to the delight of my wife, who is Spanish, and she loved it! A real treat from the rabbit to the crepes must visit!!

Nice little restaurant with friendly staff and very tasty mussels. Really enjoyed our visit here. Definitely would recommend

We so enjoyed our meal here and staff were very accommodating when we wished to change time of reservation at short notice. Menu reflects Spanish/Portuguese vibes. We could not fault anything, food, wine, service all first class!

We had a great meal with really good service. We were lucky to be able to get a table, so you must try and book in advance, but well worth it

I had the Best mussels I have ever eaten, along with great rabbit, and Venison dishes as well. The food is Scottish, but with a Spanish flair! great combination. The Best food I ate in All of Scotland. The staff was super friendly, service was...

This is lovely family run restaurant on the main road through Broadford. The food is based on the owners Spanish roots and is very tasty with many excellent choices. We were a group of four and had enough choices on to menu to keep us...

We were stopping for one night in Broadford and decided that we wanted a no fuss meal. We were able to book this restaurant and we’re absolutely delighted. The service was immediately impeccable, the food was full of flavour, well presented and excellently delivered. It...

Warm welcome followed by big platefuls of splendidly flavourful comfort food! Spanish take on local produce, very relaxed ambience.

Salmon was good very friendly service. The owners are from Mallorca so the cuisine is redolent of that island.

My wife and I enjoyed a beautiful meal at the Harbour, Proper home cooked food with friendly professional service in a warm relaxed setting. Don’t expect modern twists, this is old school classic cookery served on actual plates and thats what we liked about it....

A great little restaurant, we had the steak and slow cooked lamb. It was delicious, great house wine. Good traditional home cooked Spanish food. Good service and squeezed us in, they were very welcoming.

After travelling all day touring Skye, we were looking forward to a nice dinner! On arrival the owner didn't look too happy. When we decided not to order a starter . He was less than impressed. I am not a big eater, so decided to...

Booked in advance, excellent food, fusion of Spanish and local produce, excellent quality and service. The place to go in Broadford.

We had one night in Broadford and after checking menus online, this was the only one that had a vegan option. We booked ahead and so glad we did as quite a few people were turned away whilst we were there. A lovely little place...

A warm welcome with good service put as ease for our meal. An eclectic menu with a Spanish bias gave plenty of choice. Both meat and fish dishes provided a tasty and hearty meal.

I'd had this restaurant booked as soon as we planned to come to Skye, and I'm very happy I did, as it was a welcome change of pace and flavor to some of the restaurants we'd just visited in Oban which were sub-par. This is...

We managed to book in here several times over the course of our 2 week stay. Each time the food was fantastic and the service good. My husband recommends squid stuffed with pork, apparently it rivals anything he got in Spain. I enjoyed the Spanish...

The food was fine and my cod main was good. Service was efficient considering there was only a single waiter and we were finished our 2 course in about 50 mins. Not a big restaurant so I would recommend to book a table in advance...

We phoned the restaurant from our room across the road... They asked if we could come now, that was fine.. . What a fab meal we had here.... Can only recommend

Visited in june 2021. Lovely food, great atmosphere and friendly helpful staff. Good menu choice You will probably need to book.

Quality ingredients and nicely prepared food, with good well presented wines to match. Interesting menu, with more than a hint of Spanish influences. Excellent. Well worth the trip from Elgol, on a Sunday evening.

Enjoyed our meals but they were unable to take any credit cards and one of us had to visit the hole in the wall machine to get cash !!

The only place I’ve been recently that chill wine perfectly! It’s the simple things that often make the biggest difference. We had such a lovely meal here can’t recommend enough. We had a range of the tapas to start then a range of the mains...

Lovely meal - unusual menu and quality wine, the owner was really nice and couldn’t do enough. Chocolate dessert is a must try!

We are staying at local campsite and wandered in to Broadford. Was tempted by the slow cooked lamb on their board outside. We shared the chicken and spinach croquettes which were lovely. I had the lamb which was delicious and my friend had lasagne which...

We could not have chosen better for our celebratory meal! From my email booking to leaving the restaurant Murdo was the perfect host! There was all of the correct 'covid' restrictions & sanitation stations in place and screens between the tables! This did not hamper...

Food nice but not amazing and pricey for what it was. My husbands starter was a seafood mix which was a bit tough, small and possibly frozen which was disappointing when you are next to the coast. Both mains were cooked well but had very limited veg - one just had peas. Clean and tidy and pleasant staff.

More Spanish than Scottish with a spanish twist. Menu rather limited, all shell fish not available. Lighting too bright to create an intimate dinning experience. Service delivered without a smile or enthusiasm. The food is tasty but rather like home cooking is presentation. If you want paella you need to order for your next visit which is frankly ridiculous.

Very good food. The lamb was great and the house wine too. Didn’t had desert because there was no room for it. Everything looked delicious. Staff was nice.

Small spanish restaurant on the main Street in Broadford opposite the Dunollie Hotel. Lovely ambience and great food. We had squid, croquettes, bean stew and chicken wings all delicious. Not cheap but worth a visit.

Really enjoyed this restaurant where Spanish cuisine meets Scottish seafood. The octopus starter was brilliant as was the pre-ordered paella. The pancake desert was also good. The restaurant is run entirely by a very friendly husband and wife team. Worth the 1km walk from our campsite.

Myself (vegan) and partner enjoyed a lovely meal here. We shared the courgette carpaccio (ok but a bit expensive for what it was), then I had the vegan spanish bean stew which was just lovely, light but very tasty. My partner also enjoyed the mussel dish. We then shared the delicious vegan dessert of roast apples, with caramalized nuts in a butternut squash and red wine reduction sauce, this was just scrumptious. The restaurant itself is quite plain, little candles on the tables would add a bit of atmosphere. The restaurant is all set up for Covid-19. Its not easy to work with masks on but I thought the manager was very nice and helpful. The food is rustic and simple without frills (ie I had to ask for a hunk of bread with the stew), but I would not hesitate to eat here again.

Our most expensive meal of the week we spent touring Scotland. We had a better meal in Oban for just over half the price. The food was good, and the chef nice, but the starters, the steak, lamb etc all too expensive for the quality.The guy looking after the place was lacking in personality, adding to the less than warm feel about the place. This is all during lockdown of course but other restaurants we visited managed warmth and friendliness alot better. So very disappointing when taking the price into account

Visited last sunday. Pre ordered the paella and glad we did, tasty and full of seafood. Starters were also good. Staff attentive and pleasant

I would love to be able to write about the excellent food that I experienced at the harbour restaurant. However, I can’t do this because on attempting to enquire about a table the proprietor shouted NO in my face and then slammed the restaurant door in my face as if I was attempting to find refuge on Christmas Eve in 1st century Bethlehem. The manager demonstrated the worst customer service I have ever experience. Would recommend the hotel across the road who were accommodating, helpful with tasty food and efficient service!

Booked dinner for 2 on the 18th August 2020. For starters I ordered Mussels Catalana.It was lovely with a good flavor of red pepper garlic onion and tomato.I then ordered Chicken wings with lemon pepper and tarter sauce. Im sure the chicken died of old age along with osteoarthritis as it was so dry and parts of the wings had been cremated. There was no flavor at all to this dish. Very strange that with this dish came roast potatoes. No it was not a Sunday Lunch. I did mention this to the staff, but it fell on very deaf ears.

Ristorante con alcuni piatti scozzesi ed altri spagnoli nel menu (infatti si chiama harbour ma ha anche una piccola insegna el puerto). Buoni piatti, dall'insalata calda di polipo al baccalà. Buoni anche i dessert

Looking for a holiday dinner out, we took a chance and booked here. Turned out to be an excellent choice. Friendly and welcoming in these tricky times. Best of all, the food is great. Spanish chef does a great fusion food performance. Would be happy to go again.

As usual a beautiful meal, excellent service Murdo and Christina have mastered the art of managing a restaurant in challenging circumstances, still a lovely atmosphere

Wow ... we pre ordered the paella after seeing photos on their Facebook page and it was amazing. Better than most restaurants in Spain. Excellent local seafood helps! What a great first night’s dinner on arrival in Skye.

WOW! The food here is simply amazing! The service from Murdo and his partner was first class. They were very accommodating for our 8 month old too.The food was so good, we came back the next night - pre ordering the Paella - and with the locally caught shrimp, squid and muscles, it was simply phenomenal.Highly recommend this wonderful little restaurant
