The cafe at the Carnegie Hall in Highland

We always visit Portmahomack on our annual holiday in the Highlands and have enjoyed several visits to the cafe. We found out last year that the cafe had changed hands and have visited again this year. Friendly staff and excellent food so still deserving of 5 stars.

A nice little cafe which serves freshly prepared snacks and lunches Excellent cakes Efficient customer service and good value for money

I had a late lunch with my son here on Tuesday afternoon. My home made soup and scone were superb and my son had freshly cooked chicken with a lovely sauce. I have been coming to Portmahomack for many years, on holiday, and this is a wonderful addition to draw the crowds in! Service was first class and I will be returning to eat lunch here whenever possible.

We arrived past closing time (not realising) and the gentleman in the cafe invited us in regardless. We had tea and cakes. My carrot cake (huge slice) was served with fresh cream in a cute little jug. Hubby's scone had been heated up. Nothing was too much trouble, and we really appreciated it. Thank you!

Friendly staff, excellent service, in a clean bright small cafe. Their home made lentil and bacon soup served in a 500ml portion in large bowls was brimming with bacon, and very tasty. The Chicken Caesar salad sandwiches were in fresh bread which could have come out of an oven this morning.

We were seated in a very unwelcoming and perfunctory fashion. Two tables of four, obviously local, people were seated after us and both got served before us. That’s 8 orders in preparation before ours was even taken, which it still wasn’t. Unacceptable. We did let them know as we were walking out in disgust. Shame, as it looked good. Plus we are actually reasonably local ourselves and would have gone back if it had been good. Even though we live not far away we frequently come to this area in our motorhome and like to have a local repertoire of places to support.

Welcoming and friendly, clean and fresh. Had coffee and cake one day and lunch of scampI and chips on another day, enjoyed both visits.

So, we’re staying nearby and picked up pizzas twice now for our supper ( our wee dog Alfie means we don’t get to eat out in restaurants, swanky or otherwise), and these pizzas are just the best….fresh, tasty and great value. Thank you to the team at the Carnegie Hall Cafe, much appreciated 😊

What a great find. Such a super cafe, immaculately fresh and clean with lovely decor in a seaside colours palette. A warm welcome and friendly staff. The chicken & mushroom cream soup was delicious as was the Caesar salad sandwich. We would highly recommend this wee gem.

Im kleinen Dorf Portmahomack ist das Café noch die Draufgabe auf die tolle Lage und Idylle dort.. Abseits der Touristenpfade lassen sich die hausgemachten Köstlichkeiten auf der Terrasse vor dem Café oder im hübschen Wintergarten genießen. Das Frühstück und die Scones am ersten Öffnungstag der Saison waren perfekt. Auch die Sandwiches am Nachbartisch sahen sehr lecker aus!

Popped in for lunch today, welcomed by very friendly staff, nothing seemed to be too much trouble, offered to substitute fillings on sandwiches and top up our teapot. Plenty of choice, food freshly prepared to order and great music! We didn’t sample them but there was a very good choice of cakes also. Can definitely recommend and would go back if in the area again.

Whilst in the area four of us called in for food and a drink What a fabulous place Food was great, lots of home baking The staff were really friendly as were the other customers Call in you won’t regret it

A really nice locally run cafe with fresh home baked cakes Warm welcome. Prices very reasonable Did not try the main meals as we just popped in for a snack after a walk but menu looked good

Lovely little cafe, good selection on the menu, and if you have any room left the cake selection is amazing and tastes delicious.Lots of little gifts to buy too.

Great food, fab home baking, good coffee, dog friendly! Perfect after a walk on the beach. Great staff.

Excellent home cooked food, lovely decor. Staff were beyond helpful & friendly, lovely wee place! Definitely stop in if you’re in the area.

What a wonderful cafe. We were warmly greeted by Angela who explained the COVID precautions and showed us to our table. There were a number of hot items on the menu but we were minded to have cake. Though there were many freshly baked to...

Lovely attentive staff, spotlessly clean, super food, best scrambled egg ever, scones, rolls and bacon…just perfect, cannot be faulted. A real gem in lovely Portmahomack. Do not miss it!

We popped up from the beach for Black Isle ice cream. One friendly member of staff was quick to take our order outside and brought our ice creams out to us. Although we didn’t eat there, the menu looked tasty and the cakes looked delicious....

We booked a Pub to stay on our NC500. when we got to portmahomack the pub wasn't open (we was early)..we found refuse at this establishment ..glad we did staff are so hard working and food all fresh loved it went there a couple of...

Great service and delicious food whether it be breakfast, elevenses or lunch from friendly helpful staff. We always visit Portmahomack on our annual holiday to the Highlands and highly recommend the Carnegie Hall Cafe. Hoping to see you again next month ladies.

This is a lovely place for lunch. Food was delicious we'd booked the day before and ordered what we would have in advance. The food was delicious and the cakes and coffees. The ladies were lovely and nothing was too much. They were welcoming and...

This is a wee Gem of a restaurant tucked away up a side street but worth visiting for scrumptious food. Carrot Cake is simply the BEST

Had a wonderful afternoon tea for two. Staff very attentive and friendly. Boxed up cakes not eaten, great value, very tasty and fresh food. Will visit again.

Found this cafe by chance when we were exploring the area. It's the perfect antidote to the big chain cafes. Really homely, good simple food (looked really fresh and homemade) great cakes, extremely good value and the staff were all friendly and helpful. Just a...

Lovely visit glad it was open this time. Following all COVID procedures so felt safe .Lovely home baking and good choice on menu.Friendly staff had planned to go back on the Thursday but unfortunately they are closed on a Thursday.Will return when next up visiting...

Excellent, felt very safe throughout the whole time we were there. Great staff, great food. Thank you Mary and your team :)

After a walk along the coast we headed here, having seen reviews on Tripadvisor. We were not disappointed. We snacked on hot chocolate and bacon rolls. Both were very very tasty. Staff were helpful and efficient. Covid precautions were in operation. This is well worth...

Last month,,I had the oopportunity to visit this cafe.Their service was incredibly good.They served homemade foods which was fantasti.

well, we were on a wonderful holiday and then stumbled across the Carneigie last Wednesday in Portmahomack, food was superb, the lovely ladies and staff were a credit to this little "up a little lane" cafe, superb food, I strongly recommend the ham and mustard...

Stopped for mid-afternoon coffee and cake. The former was excellent - a nice bite to it. And the cake was delicious, too. The staff were friendly, and they had some interesting objets d'art for sale. Thoroughly recommended.

Stopped in after a dog walk along the coastal path on a Monday lunchtime. Lovely warm welcome from staff and fresh water available for dogs outside. Excellent choice of home made soup, sandwiches, paninis and hot rolls on offer. Yummy selection of home baking too. We had the cauliflower and bacon soup which was delicious, followed by sandwiches and a tea and coffee. Absolutely stuffed. Well worth the trip over to find this place. We’ll be back.

Brilliant staff lovely baguettes and bacon and egg rolls all right beside the sea in a stunning small Scottish village. Possibly close to paradise.

Not an obvious location so go and find it it is brilliant. Well organised Covid wise everything eplained re toilets ordering etc. Great bunch of women who all knew what they were doing !! The food and drink was excellent and the place itself was great - interesting and plenty to look at. Really enjoyed lunch here and in this very out of the way place it is worth finding

Great food, great service -excellent choice of gluten free including panini 👍🏼🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 . Super one way system and very Covid secure

We had an excellent lunch at Carnegie Hall. Staff were very helpful, explaining the new seating and booking arrangements. Paninis and sandwiches were all good and there is an excellent cake selection. The village is lovely, with amazing views.

We had a lovely lunch sitting outside. There is a great choice of food on the menu. I had a tasty bowl of homemade soup served with oatcakes. My kids enjoyed their food, particularly the delicious icecream. It been funny being out and about with the new normal. However the cafe staff couldnt have been more friendly and accommodating which really put me at ease.

Visiting the Tarbet visitor center we had to kill time and had our Lunch. Staff couldn't have been more helpful. The food was food two pananis - one vegetarian and a brilliant egg sandwich. I couldn't recommend if more highly

As regular visitors we were delighted to hear it was re-opening after lock-down. We've since been twice and are happy to report everything is just as good as it always has been, and the new safety measures are not overly intrusive and easy to follow. It's recommended to book now, with the reduced capacity, but both times we've done so either the day before or in the morning on the day and had no trouble getting a table (it's yours for an hour, at the moment). On arrival there's hand sanitiser and a one-way system and we wore our masks except when we were sat down, but I'm not sure if that's mandatory as we saw others who didn't. The menu is unchanged and we can highly recommend the sandwiches and the paninis, both of which have a huge amount of options you can combine for fillings. The chips are also worth a try, although we usually share a portion to leave room for desert!Speaking of, there's just as much choice for cakes and I personally love the Bounty Bar, while my hubby is enthusiastic about the Chocolate Fudge Cake.We really are so pleased to be back here again, and it honestly never disappoints.

Looking for a coffee break we stumbled on this delightful place. Met at the door and advised of the Covid requirements, very clear and made you feel very safe. Selection of home made cakes made if difficult to choose. Drinks and food were great. Friendly chat and banter with the staff whilst observing social distancing. Well worth popping in

Excellent friendly service as always even in these difficult times. Outdoor seating and always water out for the dog. We recommended Carnegie to a couple we met along the shore, hopefully they popped in. See you next month ladies.

I cant thank Mary enough for the most delicious cream tea takeaway. It was amazing. The food and service from the Carnegie Cafe has always been exceptional. We can not recommend enough.

This little cafe is a joy to visit. Walking by when closed for local activities, one of the locals came out and informed me all about the cafe. Visiting the day after we enjoyed a hot soup after a cold and windy beach walk which was delicious. The service is friendly and gives a homey feeling. I will go back.

Visiting Portmahomack for a few days and popped into Carnegie for some lunch on Valentine’s Day...WOW we had apple and parsnip soup and cauliflower, cheese and bacon soup with a haggis, cheese and chutney panini, absolutely delicious, the food was so fresh we loved it! We then found space for some courgette with cream cheese frosting, it was fantastic.I’d highly recommend this place the staff, surroundings and food are first class and we’ve booked afternoon tea tomorrow so cannot wait!Thank you for a lovely lunch❣️

Beautiful cafe with excellent options for dietary restrictions. They made a young man very happy today with their cake selection. Such helpful staff who went out of their way to be kind,friendly and even a tip for a lovely walk too. Thank you so much I was exhausted and was the pick me up I needed!

Having had great experiences eating here over the years and being very jealous of someone having an afternoon tea on one visit, I decided this year to book for myself and my husband and 4 friends for a celebration tea. I booked via Facebook and confirmed via the phone as I wanted to check that they could cater for 2 or my friends who are veggie & vegan.Although they stated it might not be as much as the other guests they were more than happy to try and cater for them. We arrived on a lovely bright crisp January day and were warmly welcomed by the staff and show to our reserved table. The cafe is lovely and bright , with some delightful craft items on display on the walls, and was lovely and warm just what you needed on a cold day. After we had sat down a large teapot was brought over and some freshly brew coffee was poured and they continued to refill them both all afternoon. There then arrived a three tiered cake stand packed with a range of sandwiches, and they were very careful to have separated the veggie options from the others. The sandwiches were all fresh and great tasting and a wide array of flavours. Next to arrive was another 3 tiers of cakes: home made scones, the largest cream filled meringues I have ever seen and then a large selection of slices of tray bakes. Finally our vegan friend was brought his own stand and we were really impressed by the selection of sandwiches and interesting looking cakes which all tasted great. We then spent the next 2 hrs eating & talking with our cups constantly being refilled. Unfortunately the last of the tray bakes beat us but they very kindly boxed them up for us to take home to enjoy over the next few days. Even though it was their closing time when we were leaving they had not tried to rush us, and even wished me a happy birthday. The tea is very good value at £9.75 each and when you add to that a warm atmosphere, friendly service and great tasting food what more could you want for a special treat

My husband and I visited today. We were freezing cold and hungry, after a morning working with livestock. We were covered in all sorts so you can imagine what we looked/smelled like. I popped my head in the door to ask if takeaway was available. We were greeted with a whole host of warmth. Just what we needed. We were encouraged to sit in, (despite our manky farm gear). Such a warm welcoming wee cafe with a lovely extensive menu. We enjoyed hot homemade soup along with homemade haggis/cheese and ham/cheese/chutney paninis. All served beautifully with crisps, salad and coleslaw. We will definitely be back and highly recommend. A lovely, friendly, clean place to eat in Portmahomack. Well done all, a credit to The Port!

We had the dog so had to sit outside in October. Very friendly, helpful staff. Excellent cullen skink, excellent cake, excellent little cafe. Clean toilets and fresh water on the table as soon as you sit down. There was no where else open so this little cafe could get away with serving anything but they maintain high standards, quality was excellent, worth the drive alone for the cake!

Excellent value, for a casual lunch, with my wife son, his wife and our daughter with their kids.. A fabulous experience. We will be back, soon

Always busy on the days it’s open lovely place for lunch with seating inside and outdoor, great value for money

Popped in for lunch and had some great home cooked food - the vegetable soup with bread was delicious! Cups of tea served in lovely china. The staff were really warm and friendly, and patiently answered our questions about the local walking routes! Definitely stop by if you’re in the area.

We love sitting outside here with our wee dog after our walk when the weather allows. It’s just off the Main Street from the main car park.

Found this little treasure with lovely, friendly ladies. Delicious sweet potato, carrot and coconut soup with a tasty brown bread. Took home some carrot cake which was excellent. Definitely worth a drive.

On a wee road trip from Beauly, we discovered this lovely place for lunch. The staff were fabulous, friendly and welcoming. Food was delicious, especially the home baked scones. Also love that the tea is served in china cups. Absolutely highly recommended.

Had lunch in this community place and the service is amazing. Lovely friendly staff and swift service despite being busy. The Cullen skink was the best I have ever had and the carrot cake was good. Do go and afterwards try the lovely beach.

Op 16 juli waren we wat aan het toeren in deze omgeving en kwamen in dit dorp uit op zoek naar een plaats om koffie te kunnen drinken. Ons oog viel op een goedgekleurd bord, waarna we gelijk de auto geparkeerd hebben. We hoefden maar enkele meters te lopen om tegenover 'the hall' een gezellig uitziend café te zien.

A bustling, well-appointed cafe with a beach theme, fresh food and home bakes, great coffee, and a fascinating selection of gifts. There was a 5 minute wait when we visited, but it was early Saturday afternoon during the school holidays, so locals and tourists alike were enjoying the ambience.

The food was delicious, I cant recommend the Cullen Skink enough, flavourful, warming and comforting.

Having our annual holiday in the Highlands and of course had to visit Portmahomack. Had elevenses at Carnegie Hall Cafe, delicious as usual. Would love to do the walk out to Tarbat Ness but the hips say otherwise - managed a short way along. Gorgeous views. Looking forward to next year's visit already.

Party of three for afternoon tea. You can have tea or coffee and it comes with scones, meringue, sandwiches and cakes. At least 24 hours notice or reservation. I reserved on Facebook Messenger. I also had the Courgette and Goat cheese soup. All of the food was really delicious. They can cater to food allergies or preferences. Excellent service.

Great wee cafe in portmahomack If you visit you must try the cullinskink it is to die for along with the Panini’s Well done guys

My husband and I visited the Carnegie Hall Cafe today after a morning visiting the Portmahomack area in the rain! After a very warm welcome from the staff and delicious hot chocolate made with real chocolate, we had a lovely lunch, This is a true gem in Portmahomack, as not only can you have delicious hot drinks and food, there is a wonderful selection of unusual gifts to purchase at reasonable prices. I would certainly recommend the Carnegie Hall Cafe. We will certainly go there again!!

Our coach stopped at this little seaside and we all needed a cup of tea. Fortunately I managed to get a seat whilst others had to search elsewhere. Most of us had scones with Jam which were lovely. Proper cup of tea, too. The cakes looked delicious and had we had longer time here I would have come back for one. Maybe next time.

Small but friendly community cafe. Home made soups and cakes every day and amazing sandwiches, Try the ham, home cooked and thick sliced. If you are lucky there may be Cullen Skink on the menu.

We were very relieved to find this welcoming cafe was open on a chilly day in May as all other eateries appeared to be closed. We were seated at the last remaining free table and told that we may have to wait as the cafe was full. We were given a jug of iced water but before long our delicious soup and sandwiches arrived. Could not have been better. Tea was served in old fashioned teacups and the waitress was most attentive. We could not have had better service even in a top class hotel. Full marks to all in this most attractive cafe.

Visited Portmahomack with friends and decided to pop in here for lunch. Lovely café with nice décor and very welcoming atmosphere, and a nice selection of home made crafts for sale. All the tables were full when we arrived but the staff asked us wait for a couple of minutes and they quickly cleared a table and re-arranged an empty table to make room for us. Staff were all very friendly and chatty and quickly brought a menu and then took our order. Great range of lunch items and specials and a lovely selection of cakes. We ordered panninis , which were really tasty and came with a beautiful salad. What really impressed us was the afternoon tea that we saw being served. A lovely range of sandwiches, and home made cakes all served on pretty china. It was a bargain at £9.95 and we all decided that we are going to come back again soon to try it out . You need to order 24hrs in advance though. Highly recommend popping into this lovely friendly café when you are next visiting the East coast

Booked afternoon tea for my wife and our friend. No problems catering for vegetarians. Very friendly and helpful service and exceptional afternoon tea and great value for money. Sandwiches, scones (excellent jam), cakes, meringues and petite banofee pies and of course plenty of tea! Relaxed and so enjoyable. Highly recommended.

We went for lunch today as we were holidaying in the village and had read good reviews and heard from others in the village. We were not disappointed. We had a Panini followed by the sharing of a piece of home baked cake and scone. It was all delicious and a lovely little place to eat and socialise. Very nice.

We had left our hotel in Inverness without having breakfast, having planned a brunch elsewhere but it was closed on a Monday. We ended up deciding to try to see what was around as we explored the coast above Black Isle. It was a beautiful day and we were very lucky that the sign to Carnegie Hall cafe caught our eye.

We love visiting the Carnegie Cafe - frequently! - when we're in Portmahomack. The food is simply wonderful, great paninis, sandwiches, gorgeous soups and home baking. Lots of gluten free options too which is a real bonus given that I struggle to find gluten free cafe food at home. I want to especially mention the really friendly staff, they are so welcoming and helpful. Please don't change a thing!

We went here on a really stormy day and had a very warm and friendly welcome, it was very busy. The staff were all friendly and the service was very good. I would recommend to friends. We had pannis, which come with crisps, a little salad and coleslaw. Lovely chips, Cullen Skink soup which was excellent.

Stormy day in Portmahomac but wonderful food and great value....we loved the generously filled paninis, chips that were crisp and good value Cullen slink. Very good service from waitress on her first day and also very clean toilets. Much better value than a fine dining restaurant in Tain. Thank you

Just what you need after visiting Tarbert Ness. Great coffee, sandwiches, soups and cakes. What more do you need?

Tolles Cafe, welches eher wie ein gemütliches Wohnzimmer anmutet, sehr freundlicher Service und ein unglaublich toller Afternoon Tea! Sehr große und sehr gute Auswahl, frische Scones und Sandwiches und sehr kreative Kuchen.

While in the area for a couple of days we had the good fortune to come across Carnegie hall cafe. I had the sweet potato and coconut soup which was delicious served with really nice bread, my husband had the hand carved ham sandwich ( the ham is cooked on the premises ) it was the best ham he'd ever had. There was a of large selection of home baking, which all looked delicious. We had a piece of fruit cake and a tray bake as well as taking some to go as they all looked so good. It is obviously well used by locals (rightly so), the staff were very friendly. Will certainly return when in the area.

We found this place completely by accident but what a find. Its quite compact but light and airy. There was a couple of young ladies in with their babies very cutely propped up on the sofas as well as an older couple - so suits everyone. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. There was a nice selection of freshly cooked food and we were delighted with our paninis and chips. Jug of water offered without needing to ask. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend.

Everything was good about this cafe, staff were pleasant helpful and efficient. Food was excellent and very good value

We came here at the recommendation from the chap who owns The Castle pub along the road. It’s small inside but cosy, it can get quite warm. There are so many things to look at inside and most of the decorations are for sale.

pleased to find this little gem selling no nosense good quality lunches. Relaxed feel great cakes and ice cream with friendly and polite staff. Recommended.

Bellissimo Bistrò stile Marino che serve ottime zuppe vegetariane, oltre a panini e sandwiches. Vasta scelta di torte. Prezzi contenuti. Due zuppe e due fette di torta 12.40 Pound

Lovely wee cafe. Friendly staff, good food, very reasonably priced. Water jugs were put on tables without asking. The food was very tasty. I recommend the paninis. Lovely location and decor. Some nice giftware on offer to buy at very reasonable prices too.

On the last day of our fantastic week long stay in Portmahomack we booked an afternoon tea at the Carnegie Hall Cafe. This was undoubtedly THE best afternoon tea we have ever had, which includes the one we had at the famous Betty’s in Ilkley, West Yorkshire. The table was beautifully set on our arrival. Pretty vintage china. And what a feast. As we are vegetarians all the sandwiches were vegetarian. Lovely fresh cream meringues, scones, tray bakes and a huge pot of tea. The staff are friendly and attentive and can’t do enough for you. All this for less than £10 a head! I can’t recommend it enough - you will not be disappointed!

If you’re looking for all homemade produce then this is the place.

Dropped for lunch, immediately charmed by the friendly welcome. We both had Cullen skink soup - totally wonderful. Finished with drinks, home made scone and cake, all fantastic. Definitely worth a visit, then take a stroll along the beautiful beach to walk it off afterwards.

What a gem of a place in an beautiful village. Wonderful food and the friendliest, most helpful staff we have encountered on our holiday. Very reasonably priced. Sat outside as we had our dog with us. Everyone should visit here if they are in the area. I could happily live in this village.

Great selection of healthy food, freshly prepared to order. Coffee was first class and selection of teas brill too.

Booked for Sunday Lunch yesterday. Lovely experience. Friendly helpful staff who responded to us promptly. The cafe is clean and full of interesting paintings, wall hangings and gifts to look at and buy.

The staff in Carnegie Hall Cafe are friendly and helpful and the food is delicious.This was our first visit to Portmahomack and certainly will not be the last. What a beautiful place. If you've been told, as I was, "Portmahomack? There's nothing there!" do not listen as it is well worth a visit, especially on a nice day.

Das Cafe ist ein kleiner Schatz mitten im Ort mit 5 oder 6 Tischen im Haus und ein paar Plätzen auf der Terrasse. Das Cafe ist liebevoll eingerichtet, das Team ist sehr freundlich und schafft eine total entspannte Atmosphäre. Die hausgemachten Scones mit Marmelade sind sehr empfehlenswert. Fazit: Uneingeschränkt empfehlenswert.

Piacevolissima scoperta, per caso, in quanto su TripAdvisor risultava chiuso la Domenica. Invece nei mesi di Luglio ed Agosto è aperto anche la Domenica.

The food was excellent, with a good menu to chose from. The food was fresh and tasty, the ladies in the cafe friendly and welcoming. A lovely stop up the coast.

This is a delighful cafe in this lovely place. The staff are amazing and are so kind.

Lovely paninnis and the naughtiest selection of cakes and slices, you can't just have one! Staff so lovely and friendly.

Ci siamo fermati per uno spuntino all’ora di pranzo : panini caldi e sandwiches deliziosi , zuppe del giorno profumate e fumanti !

While out for an afternoon tour of Easter Ross called in by chance at this litte gem of a place for a coffee and scone.

We stopped at this community cafe after a long drive from central belt. We’d heard vg things about it via tripadvisor and we were not disappointed. A fabulous little place. Fresh soups, paninis and sandwiches , cakes and scones. All thoughtfully created and presented. Good coffee too! Staff very welcoming and helpful. The only downside I would imagine is size it is small so in peak season may be a little difficult to get seated but well worth the wait. Think they might do take away but not sure as didn’t ask but I just get the feel they’d not leave you high and dry. Definitely worth a visit. Right next to seaside too. Just a lovely place.

Despite being local-ish and coming for a wander in Portmahomack fairly regularly it's somehow taken us a year to actually try this lovely little cafe, which is definitely our loss!

Great place to eat if up here on holiday go and try it the staff are so friendly and food exelent portohomack is a beautiful place to visit very quiet and beach is lovely

7 of us turned up for lunch and the staff were very accommodating. We all had paninis or soup - the haggis and cheese panini came highly recommended. Coffee and homemade cakes finished our meal off brilliantly! Lovely atmosphere in the cafe with helpful and friendly staff. A great asset in this pretty village. We will definitely be back

Fantastic wee chilled out place to visit! Such a good variety of food and home baking available. I highly recommend any panini - they are delicious! Second time I've visited and will be back again!
