Surf & turf in Highland

I knew not to expect lobster in November but I’d hoped for langoustines or maybe scallops at a push. Not to worry, haddock tacos sounded great! Love tacos, love haddock, so jumped at them and also ordered a kids fish & chips with a side order of mushy peas. I was the only person in and didn’t particularly enjoy having to listen to the young fella in the kitchen ranting about vegans and vegan food for 10 minutes. I’m clearly not vegan but I wouldn’t have enjoyed hearing rants about anything, especially calling people weirdos and generally being unpleasant. Not a great atmosphere to be waiting in. It was a mixed bag to be honest. The mushy peas were not, they were more of a pea & mint purée, not pleasant. The tacos were surprisingly bland. Of course I wasn’t expecting great Mexican food in a tiny village in the Highlands but I did expect some flavour. Even the fish was unseasoned. Luckily I was taking home and had guacamole and chipotle sauce to hand. The fish was plentiful and perfectly cooked though. And the batter (despite the lack of seasoning) was probably the best I’ve ever had. Light, crispy and golden. The fish and chips were faultless. Not chips as you’d maybe expect from a chippy, more like fries but they were really good and well seasoned. I’d probably have made this a 3.5 but I’m happy to give 4. The young woman serving was really pleasant and helpful and countered the rants from the kitchen (she handled him well too, better than I would have). I’d definitely return and recommend but wouldn’t recommend the tacos.

Best fish and chips I have had in years the fish was outstanding Son had burger he said it was amazing Lovely owners a massive 10/10

The best fish and chips I have ever had! It was so good. My husband had the burger and it was just as delicious. Really friendly staff and seats outside to sit with the dog. We will be back.

Wow! What a wonderful place, we had a takeaway to eat back in our motorhome and we were so impressed. Well cooked and beautifully presented, I had the fish tacos and they were amazing. My only complaint is that there was so much choice and as we were only there one night I struggled to decide. W will definitely need to return to Dornoch to sample more delights from this fantastic place.

Was at caravan site and tried this restaurant which do sit in and takeaway, I had the haddock in breadcrumbs and I have to say was the best I've ever had, partner had lobster roll and she was very pleased, if you in this ares try it out

Langoustines with chips and salad. Absolutely delicious, each part, best dinner I've had in a long time. The staff are lovely and genuinely friendly.

We had fantastic fish and chips tonight sat inside. The food was freshly cooked, so hot and tasty. My daughter has a food phobia and will not eat out very often at all. She loved the food here and can't wait to come back later in the week. Thank you so much.

Simply stunning! We visited the shop in Dornoch on the Wednesday night, fish and chips and lobster roll. One of my favourite takeaways ever! We'll be back next time we're in the Highlands

Scallops, black pudding, salad and chips simply delicious. Service very friendly and food cooked to order. Can't wait to go back.

1st time trying this eatery.. did not disappoint. Highland Burger, terrific.. Kids Burgers demolished. Will return & highly recommend 👌
