The Coffee Bothy in Highland

What a great place. If you are ever in the area then do visit and leave feeling uplifted. We went for breakfast on our way to the Armadale ferry and the staff could not have been any friendlier. Coffee was excellent and the food was superb. The whole place has such a friendly vibe and, although only small, they bend over backwards to get people in if that is what they are looking for. They also provide an excellent take away service which we used to take cakes away with us (they have such a huge selection of cakes on offer). So, do stop for a coffee and cake if passing by, we wish we could have visited more.

What an amazing friendly place. Fabulous coffee and such a lovely friendly owner (in a kilt too!). Gave us lots of tips for Skye - he should work for tourism! And loads of gluten free options, delicious cakes! Came back the next day but sadly closed. 100% recommend

Amazing place! Gorgeous home-made cakes, a great welcome from super-friendly (and kilted!) staff! And easy parking just outside. We visited on a blissfully warm sunny autumn day, so we sat at one of the picnic tables outside. The Cranachan home-made cake made with cream, whisky and oats was AMAZING! This is the loveliest, most charming cafe ever! Thoroughly recommended! Thank you guys!!

Let me start by saying the food is good and the cakes (homemade by one of the owners are also great)! But what makes this place is the people, the two owners are fantastic, so friendly and we loved their dog too! We’ll be back on our next visit to Skye :)

Friendly welcome in a lovely cafe, cakes were amazing and the coffee was excellent. Very dog friendly, cosy, and relaxed atmosphere. Owners were a delight, what a little gem of a find. It's definitely worth a visit and many return visits!

Really lovely place! Friendly and welcoming staff. We ordered hot drinks and cakes to takeaway. Really delicious cakes (Belgium clementine torte especially 👌) would definitely recommend!

Fantastic little coffee shop the cakes are amazing the guys are very welcoming love coming here jynx the dog is gorgeous

Fantastic place for a coffee, tea and something to eat. Delicious cakes (for example the lemon and berries). A more than warm welcome and very friendly staff. The owner/host told us something about the nice spots on the Isle and was very enthousiastic. This should be your first stop when you enter the Isle. Highly recommended.

A quirky gem of a place! Even though pretty full with people ordering take-outs we were given a very warm welcome and offered a table. We were originally going in for a coffee and cake (it was my birthday) but decided on an early lunch. Between us we had the nachos with vegetarian haggis and I had the garden salad with feta. Both were not only of exceptional quality but beautifully presented,and we know about food. The salad leaves were grown very locally too. Coffees made with oak milk and desserts were delicious. They even went the extra mile with my dessert and played ‘Happy Birthday’ which caught me completely off guard!! Thank you, we’ll definitely be back.

Great food and excellent service/staff. Quality ingredients Not a big spot but v clean and tidy. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic wee find on our island adventure. Absolutely delicious cakes and fantastic coffees and hot chocolate to warm us up after a day braving the questionable 'spring' weather. Staff all very helpful and pleasant and their resident pup was absolutely gorgeous. Bonus points for being dog friendly and fantastic decor! Would recommend for anyone in need of a tasty bite and a cosy atmosphere.

Super friendly wee place in Broadford. Well-behaved dogs are allowed in. The coffee was super. One of us had a bagel. One had soup, then went back to ask for another bowl as he said it was the best he'd ever had and I had a generous slice of home-made gluten free cake. We will be back.

We called into The Coffee Bothy for coffee and cake. The owners are so lovely and welcoming. We managed to nab a table by the woodburner. The coffee is superb and there were so many choices of cake, it was difficult to choose!

We were in Skye for a couple of days filming at the local hospital. A last minute change in availability of the doctor we were filming left us with a couple of hours free in the morning so went looking for a coffee and that's when we found the Coffee Bothy. Despite the cold and wet morning the welcome we received was warm and friendly as we were sat in the last available table. This is a popular place, justifiably so, and it was full only 15 minutes after opening that day. In the end we only had a breakfast roll (the Lorne sausage being delicious and perfectly cooked) but we were sorely tempted by the wonderful selection of home baked cakes and sweet treats. Looks like we are going to have to visit again tomorrow before we head back to Glasgow to get a take away cake. Did I say the service here was friendly? That would be an understatement as they were very attentive and genuinely interested to hear that you were enjoying your food and drink.

What a fantastic place! Coffee and cake was delicious...only one problem..sooo much choice!. Really cosy wee place, log burner, fairy lights and fabulous owners. Thanks kads for a great wee treat x

Having arrived at Skye it was time for a stop and a coffee. Being a Sunday thankfully this shop was open. Love friendly staff, good food. Thank you.

Nice cake, ok coffee, but £16.85 for two cakes and 2 coffees???? There are plenty of nice cafes on Skye that are fairly priced. If you want winter trade from locals, you need to do better.

Such kind and friendly owners, welcomed us with such warmth. The type of people who should own a cafe.. you can tell they love people well :) Our toddler had a great time staring at their dog and we loved the delicious soup and toastie and coffees. Love the vegan options for our toddler who is on a very special diet. Lovely owners, thanks so much for being your lovely selves! Keep it up and God bless you guys.

Love it! Quirky, cute and welcomed like old friends, especially our little daschund!! Coffee and cake amazing! So chilled, perfect!! 🐶🐾😘x

Popped in here while working on Skye. Nice cosy building, good selection of baking, lovely coffee, lovely cakes and friendly staff

We love the Coffee Bothy. Great food. Lovely coffee. Fabulous cakes. The owners are lovely. One of the best places on Skye. The only downside is that it’s not the biggest cafe going. So sometimes you have to wait for a table. Worth it though. Keep up the good work guys! We’ll be back often! Shame we live the other end of the island!

Felt extremely ripped off, I ordered a bacon role with butter for almost £5 and got the cheapest bread roll possible with margarine and a single small tasteless piece of bacon. I was pretty shocked by the stinginess!

We'd hardly arrived in Broadford before being told of the Coffee Bothy; a small(ish) coffee shop. If we liked coffee (and cake and snacks and soup so forth) then, we were encouraged, we simply MUST drop by. Sometimes such recommendations give rise to a height of expectation that, upon making a visit, fails to be met. The simple fact of the matter, however, is that the Coffee Bothy not only met the expectation we had on our first visit but continued to delight on every other visit we made. Sometimes twice in one day. Sure, the coffee is great (locally roasted on the island) and the cakes are splendid and the food across the board is lovely. But it's the people who work there, who welcome customers so warmly and who so obviously like their work and each other that makes everything so very much worth dropping by and dropping by again. And again. There are lots of super places to visit for a break or a drink or a snack as you travel around this incredible island. But if you're anywhere near Broadford then THIS is the place.

Delicious home cooked food. Great for a lunch stop. Ben was charming as was Jynx the dog. The selection of cakes was amazing

Being an Indian vegetarian family exploring the UK, this establishment truly felt like a sanctuary. We highly recommend trying their avocado toast and vegan pastries; they're a must-try. The food consistently maintained exceptional quality, and even though the staff were occupied, they remained remarkably accommodating. It's important to note that the kitchen's closing hours differ from the cafe's, so keep an eye on that. To sum it up, our experience here was phenomenal.
