Adorable little place with parking . Very friendly owners. We arrived not long before they were due to close. This wasn't a problem. We ordered a toastie each and two hot drinks. All were really good. We loved the concept.. Very rustic and very open air (there is a roof over one seating area). Yes it's cold on a chilly day.. And it was damp and cold when we visited. However there are IR heaters which kept us warm enough as were right underneath one. There is no toilet, there are no doors or windows, it has a small menu, all genuinely homemade . If that's not for you there are plenty of other places where you can have the other comforts, but you will miss a treat. We'd definitely recommend it.

If you’re looking for a place to have breakfast nearby, you must come here! The cappuccinos are amazing & the pastries taste very good. It does take away, but you can also sit in this old building which is such a unique & lovely setting. It is an open ambience, but there are heating lamps, so you won’t be cold. Staff is kind. The only downside is that there are no bathrooms, but we didn’t really need them, so it was fine.

Unusual location, but we really enjoyed our stay. The baristas have been kind to us and served us very fast. The cappuccinos were good and even the latte art surprised us positively. We definitely recommend eating their muffins!

Un posto bellissimo dove vale, assolutamente la pena, fermarsi. La metterei cone tappa obbligata nel tour dell'isola di Skye. Qui ho mangiato il miglior muffin della mia vita!!! Assolutamente fantastica anche la location ed il personale del coffee bar.

This is the best coffee on Skye without doubt. We’ve been coming since they opened and it’s as good as ever. Birch in Portree is a close second!

We are blessed to have this on our doorstep!!! Fantastic coffee and the cake whichever you choose are simply the best on the island…and they have some stiff competition! The guys are so friendly and the the atmosphere they have created is fantastic, that couple with the rustic vibe they have going on this place is a must when visiting the island 💙

The power of social media led us to Lean To Coffee on our first and recent trip to Skye. Honestly the best coffee we’ve tasted in a long time. And the cakes and bakes are an added bonus. My fave was the banana bread, hubby loved the pear and honey cake. A must visit if your visiting Skye.

What a gem and a “must do” on your visit to Isle of Skye! Quaint rustic place and an experience to have a fantastic professionally Barista made coffee and absolutely delicious cake/cookie. Highly recommend the cinnamon and cardamom bun. Lovely people who deserve to do well. We will be visiting again before we leave.

Nous sommes de gros mangeurs et on préfère les petits déjeuners plus copieux, surtout au vu du prix affiché et avant une journée de randonnée ou d'activités sur l'île de Skye. Absolument rien à dire sur la qualité en revanche, les toasts et les pâtisseries sont vraiment savoureuses. Le rapport qualité-prix est bon mais la quantité pourrait être un peu plus généreuse. À tester !

You will not be disappointed if you pop in to lean to coffee. We had brunch and a cinnamon bun with our amazing coffee. A great pit stop in Skye

Het lijkt een beetje raar, een plek langs de weg naar de brug van Skye. Maar wat ontzettend leuk gemaakt, met oude delen van een gebouw en een container. Het geeft een beetje een hippie-strandgevoel. En een prachtig uitzicht met heerlijke koffie!

A must stop of you way onto or off of Skye. Amazing coffee and genuinely the best toastie I have ever had (had the Barefooter). Everyone was so friendly and welcoming and such a great location with both sheltered and open seating. Would recommend as a must visit when on syke!

A great find, a little quirky gem. Worth a visit. We had a really tasty mushroom toastie but were a little disappoint by the focaccia, which was very thin and flat.

Isle of Skye is a wonderful place but extremely difficult to get a breakfast and coffee before 9am. So it was wonderful to find "Lean to Coffee" open early morning. Fabulous coffee and extremely delightful toasted sandwich adjacent to the main road. We stopped to...

Visited Annie’s bakery whilst visiting up visiting family in Thurso. Amazing value for money alongside fabulous savouries and sweets. So much time and effort put into each. Transported plenty of goodies home to North Yorkshire, we will be back!! ☺️

We had some really delicious cake and tea. I would definitely recommend the banana chocolate cake and the apple caramel cake. The service was really nice and I would definitely stop there again.

Agree with the other reviews. This is an unlikely place to find at the end of the world. We felt welcomed and in the main enjoyed our stay. The only downside was the cost for the 2 of us. £200 for a snack, breakfast, plate of curry and a bunkhouse bed with no shower and a outside toilet seemed breathtaking expensive. To put this into perspective, we go to a nice hotel each year for a winter break, that's more than we pay per day at the hotel with vastly more civilized amenities. I do understand there are logistics involved at Cape wrath. However for an 'ordinary' local Scottish person I'd be looking to stay at sandwood bay and make a lunch trip to the cafe as I simply can't justify the cost/value. However, it is altogether improbably situated and a must experience if you are doing a long walk. Just be prepae your expectations.

Food was nice and service was, for the most part, friendly. One server seemed to be having a bad day. Brusque and barely civil. Very expensive for what was served.

We stayed at Taigh Ailean for our trip to Skye. We also had the opportunity to eat dinner there (Breakfast was included with our stay.) The dinner was so delicious! The view is lovely as you can see the loch from the windows of the bar. All the staff is fantastic and so friendly! I had a great dinner and I would describe it, but the menu changes to suit what is in season and available from the sea. Whatever you get, I guarantee it will be the best! Make sure you call ahead and get a reservation as it fills up quickly. I know that they also have live music, which would be great, but we didn't have any while we were there.
